Shopping is not as simple as you may think! There are all sorts of tricks at play each time we reach out for that particular brand(品牌) of product on the shelf.

    Coloring, for example, varies according to what the producers are trying to sell. Health foods are packaged(包裝)in green, yellow or brown because we think of these as healthy colors. Ice cream packets are often blue and expensive goods, like chocolates, are gold or silver.

    When some kind of pain killer was brought out recently, researchers found that the colors turned the customers off because they made the product look weak and ineffective. Eventually, it came on the market in a dark blue and white package because we think of it as safe, and white as calm.

   The size of a product can attract a shopper. But quite often a bottle doesn’t contain as much as it appears to.

   It is believed that the better-known companies spend, on average, 70 percent of the total cost of the product itself on packaging!

   The most successful producers know that it’s not enough to have a good product. The founder of Pears soap, who for 25 years has used pretty little girls to promote(推銷) their goods, came to the conclusion: “Any fool can make soap, but it takes a genius(天才)to sell it.”

Which of the following may trick a shopper into buying a product according to the text?

   A. The cost of its package.

   B. The price of the product.

   C. The color of its package.

   D. The brand name of the product.

The underlined part “the colors turned the customers off”(in Para.3) means that the colors ____.

   A. attracted the customers strongly

   B. had weak effects on the customers

   C. tricked the customers into shopping

   D. caused the customers to lose interest

Which of the following is the key to the success in product sales?

   A. The way to promote goods.

   B. The discovery of a genius.

   C. The team to produce a good product.

   D. The brand name used by successful producers.

Which of the following would be the best title for this text?

   A. Choice of Good Products

   B. Disadvantages of Products

   C. Effect of Packaging on Shopping

   D. Brand Name and Shopping Tricks

When I was eight, I saw a movie about an island that had an erupting volcano and jungles filled with wild animals. The island was ruled by a beautiful woman called Tondalaya, the Fire Goddess of the Volcano. It was a low budget movie, but to me, it represented the perfect life. But through the years, Tondalaya was forgotten.
The week I turned 50, my marriage came to a sudden end. My house, furniture and everything I’d owned was sold to pay debts that I didn’t even know existed. In a week I had lost my husband, my home and my parents who had refused to accept a divorce in the family. I’d lost everything except my four teenage children. I used every penny I had to buy five plane tickets from Missouri to Hawaii. Everyone said I was crazy to think I could just run off to an island and survive. I was afraid they were right.
I worked 18 hours a day and lost 30 pounds because I lived on one meal a day. One night as I walked alone on the beach, I saw the red orange lava（火山巖）pouring out of Kilauea Volcano in the distance. It was time to live my imagination!
The next day, I quit my job, bought some art supplies and began doing what I loved. I hadn't painted a picture in 15 years. I wondered if I could still paint. My hands trembled the first time I picked up a brush. But before an hour had passed, I was lost in the colors spreading across the canvas（畫布）in front of me. And as soon as I started believing in myself, other people started believing in me, too. The first painting sold for $ 1500.
The past six years have been filled with adventures. My children and I have gone swimming with dolphins, watched whales and hiked around the crater rim（火山口邊緣）of the volcano. We wake up every morning with the ocean in front of us and the volcano behind us. The dream I had more than 40 years ago is now reality. I’m living freely and happily ever after.
【小題1】Why did the writer go to Hawaii?

A．To free herself from trouble.
B．To make a living.
C．To spend her holiday.
D．To realize her childhood dream.
【小題2】Which of the following is the writer’s dream?   
A．Become a successful painter.
B．Live in nature with animals.
C．Get close to wildlife.
D．Live a free and happy life.
【小題3】We can infer from the passage that __________.
A．the writer wasn’t sure whether she could survive in Hawaii at first
B．the writer’s parents encouraged her to divorce
C．the writer’s husband took away most of her money
D．the writer had never done painting before

A three-year independent investigation into the September 11, 2001 attack on the Pentagon has yielded new eyewitness evidence which, according to the Southern California-based researchers who conducted the investigation conclusively (and unfortunately), establishes as a historical fact that the violence which took place in Arlington that day was not the result of a surprise attack by suicide hijackers, but rather a military black operation involving a carefully planned and skillfully executed deception."

A CNN Reporter at the scene states that there is no evidence that a 757 hit the Pentagon.

　  What hit the Pentagon? A Boeing 757 loaded with passengers and fuel right? Who was on Flight 757? According to the Flight Information there were No Arabs on it. That makes me wonder if Flight 757 actually existed at all.

　　From the pictures and the videos, people can find that there are several doubtful points that need to be taken into consideration, for example the marker line on the grass in the satellite and ground pictures, the different colors of the smoke, the hole which the plane impacted, and the standing pylons (架線塔).

　　Also, from the comparison of the different pictures, people can find some other strange points. For example, the gear (齒輪) is not the matching one. The wreckage of the plane is not the one from the American Airlines. The glass on the pavement of the pole is another doubtful point. The last thing that need considering is about the collapse. One of the gif video shows the plane impacting the Pentagon. The only problem with this video footage is that it has been altered (改變) and can not be fully trusted.

　　These crash photos and videos shown here clearly have been doctored (篡改) and don't even match the physics of what happened. So where is the real video? It leaves me many questions. Is this a missile? It is a real enigma.

1.Where can you possibly read this article?

A．In a newspaper.

B．In a book.

C．On a website.

D．In a magazine.

2.What the word “yielded” mean in the first sentence?

A．given in

B．surrendered

C．given away

D．produced

3.Which of the following doubtful points is not mentioned in the passage?

A．the colors of the smoke

B．the model of the plane

C．the standing pylons

D．the marker line on the grass

4.What is the author’s attitude towards the 911 investigation?

A．Positive.

B．Neutral.

C．Skeptical.

D．Negative.

There are many colors in nature. But do you know if a color has weight? I think you’ll say “no”. But I am afraid you are wrong. If you don’t believe, you may do a small experiment.

First, put two objects（物體） with the same weight into two boxes. Then cover the box. Third, wrap(裹) one box with a red piece of paper, the other with a white piece of paper. OK. Now hold the boxes with your hand one by one. It is certain that you will think the red one is a little heavier.

Why do you think so? A scientist found that different colors have different weights in a man’s mind. So he did many tests and at last he got the result. That is to say, every color has its own weight in our mind and their order is the same. The heaviest color is red, then blue, green, yellow and white.

The scientist told us that colors also have smell. Can you smell the color? Of course not. Then why did the scientist say so? That is because every color stands for (代表)a kind of light with a certain wavelength(波長). It reaches our brain through sense organs(感覺器官).

According to this discovery, scientists say that people accept the colors they like, and refuse the colors they hate. So your body and mind will be healthy by using the colors you like. Or you’ll be nervous or ill. For example, if you stay in a room with red windows, wallpapers and furniture for two hours, you’ll feel you have been there for four hours. But if the room is blue, you’ll feel you have been there for only an hour. Another example, if a person walks out of a red room and into a blue room, his temperature will fall. That means our body temperature will change with different colors.

1.The idea of the second paragraph is to tell us ________.

A．a(chǎn) red box is heavier than a white one

B．a(chǎn) color has weight in one’s mind

C．white paper is lighter than red paper

D．you can know the weight of a color by holding it

2.Why did the scientist say colors have smell?

A．Because people can sense(感覺) the light from colors.

B．Because we can smell colors with our noses.

C．Because every color has its own sweet smell.

D．Because every color can give off light of the same length.

3.If a person walks from a blue room to a red room, his body temperature will__________.

A．rise

B．fall

C．stay the same

D．change now and then

4.It can be known from the text that________.

A．colors have order in weight

B．colors can change the weight of an object

C．people would stay longer in a room with red windows

D．colors can affect （影響）our mood （情緒）and health

5.This passage is probably a __________.

A．book review

B．history textbook

C．travel magazine

D．science report
