When Joshua Blue, a head teacher at the Kennedy, hosts a lecture for his students, he wears a light violet-colored tie. "You don't want so many bright colors that the kids will get distracted," said Blue. Colors give off very specific signals, and different tie colors stand for very different impacts. Wondering what color tie to wear to your next meeting? Here's how to choose the perfect color tie for every occasion:

All powerful reds

It's not a coincidence（巧合）that many politicians wear red-colored ties with light shirts and darker suits. "Red is the powerful color," said Mark Woodman, a trend analyst who studies color in Laurel, Maryland. "There’s something about red that always comes back to strength and passion.” But the tone of your reds matters, too. Darker reds can help build trust, while lighter red and pink ties can be more of a statement about your personal style and be associated with creativity. When you want to convey a sense of ambition, consider a shiny red.

Royal purples

Ross Znavor, an executive in financial services in New York, wears purple ties rather than red to business meetings because the color shows a bit of self-confidence and helps him create lasting first impressions. Purple, traditionally a sign of royalty and wealth is becoming more acceptable in the workplace.

Black affairs

"While you might not wear them to meetings on a regular basis, wearing black ties to a cocktail party or even a dinner is unique and attractive," said Zyla. But remember: the formal black color can feel aggressive in many situations. "Avoid it if you are a green-hand at work," Zyla said.

Right blues

Afraid of sending the wrong message with your tie color? Consider blue as the all-purpose tie. Blue ties are a good investment because the color reminds people of the sky and ocean. "Blue is the safest color to wear," Lindsay said.

1.Why do many politicians prefer red-colored ties?

A. Because they often wear light shirts and darker suits.

B. Because they want to get promoted.

C. Because red is related to strength and passion.

D. Because red gets their message across easily.

2.Who will probably choose the purple ties?

A. Politicians. B. Businessmen.

C. Artists. D. Head teachers.

3.What color tie will you consider if you are a green-hand at work?

A. Red. B. Purple.

C. Black. D. Blue.

A few years ago, I took a sightseeing trip to Washington D.C. I saw many of our

nation’s treasures, and I also saw a lot of unfortunate people like beggars and homeless folks(人們)in the streets.

Standing outside the Ronald Reagan Center, I heard a voice say,“Can you help me?”When I turned around, I saw an elderly blind woman with her hand extended(伸出). In a natural reaction, I reached into my pocket, pulled out all of my loose change and placed it in her hand. I didn’t even look at her. I was annoyed(生氣) at being bothered(煩) by a beggar.

But the blind woman smiled and said, “I don’t want your money. I just need help finding the post office.”

Immediately, I realized what I had done. I acted with prejudice(偏見)—I judged another person simply for what I thought she was.

The thing I had forgotten about myself is that I am an immigrant. I left Honduras and arrived in America at the age of 15. Through the years, I have been a dishwasher, cashier, mechanic and pizza delivery driver among many other jobs, and finally I became a network engineer.

In my own life, I have experienced many open acts of prejudice. I remember a time, at age 17— I was a busboy, and I heard a father tell his little boy that if he did not do well at school, he would end up like me.

But now, living in my American middle-class lifestyle, it is too easy to forget my past, to forget who I am and where I have been, and to lose sight of where I want to be going. That blind woman on the street of Washington D.C. cured(治愈) me of my blindness. She reminded me to always keep my eyes and heart open.

1.When the author came to America at first ______.

A. he usually did some work with a little payment.

B. he used to beg for some money on the street.

C. he lived a comfortable life as a network engineer.

D. he was respected by others all the time.

2.According to the passage, what did the author regret(后悔)?

A. That he gave all his change to the blind woman.

B. The way he treated the blind woman.

C. That he came to Washington

D. C. for a visit.

3.We can infer all of the following statements from the passage EXCEPT ____.

A. He disliked being bothered by beggars.

B. He was delighted to give away his money to beggars.

C. He once suffered a lot.

D. The blind woman didn’t beg for money at that time.

4.What does the author want to tell us through this story?

A. Don’t dream up ways to get what you want.

B. Money is the root of all evils.

C. An easy life makes a person forgetful.

D. Be good to others all the time.

His great originality came from the fact that he wrote,performed and recorded music that appealed to different communities.Before there had been “white” music and “black” music.But Jackson made “crossover” music,songs that had parts of funk,rock ‘n’ roll and disco in them.He broke down a lot of barriers with this approach.A great example of this “crossover” style is the song Beat It.It has guitars like rock music,but it also has a beat like disco music.

If you look up the Beat It video on the Internet,you’ll understand another reason for his fame.He made imaginative music that went well with equally imaginative videos.Beat It is,in part,about a war between young gangs.

“When I was just starting out,many first producer used to make me listen to Michael Jackson’s live performance of Who’s Loving You (1969).He would make me watch and listen to that for hours back to back,“said American singer Beyonce,just one of many singers to be inspired by Jackson.

He was,for many of the younger generation,the first to cross over and explode onto the pop charts.“ I felt like he set the standard for artists.I don’t care what genre you make music in,you should always try to be like Michael Jackson,”said American singer Bruno Mars.That is why was called “The King of Pop” and why he lives on in the hearts of hundreds of millions.

1.Why did Michael Jackson act like a child?

C. Because he lived in a mansion called Neverland.

D. Because he didn’t live a proper life in his childhood.
