psychology think that there are also two groups of people: people who prefer warm colors and people
who prefer cool colors.
The warm colors are red, orange and yellow. Where there are warm colors and a lot of light, people
usually want to be active. People think that red, for example, is exciting. Sociable people, those who like
to be with others, like red. The cool colors are green, blue and violet. These colors, unlike warm colors,
are relaxing. Where there are cool colors, people are usually quiet. People who like to spend time alone
often prefer blue.
Red may be exciting, but one researcher says that time seems to pass more slowly in a room with
warm colors than in a room with cool colors. He suggests that a warm color, such as red or orange is a
good color for a living room or restaurant. People who are talking or eating do not want time to pass
quickly. Cool colors are better for offices or factories if the people who are working there want time to
pass quickly.
Researchers do not know why people think some colors are warm and other colors are cool.
However, almost everyone agrees that red, orange, and yellow are warm and that green, blue, and violet
are cool. Perhaps warm colors remind people of warm days and the cool colors remind them of cool
days. Because in the north the sun is higher during summer, the hot summer sunlight appears yellow.
B. Blue, violet.
C. Black, blue.
D. Brown, white.
B. Warm colors can make people excited.
C. People who like to be with others don"t like red.
D. Where there are warm colors, people want to be active.
B. Orange for dining-rooms.
C. Blue for bedrooms.
D. Red for studies.
B. Warm colors remind people of warm days.
C. Cool colors remind people of cool days.
D. People have an agreeable opinion of warm colors and cool colors.

place to another at a certain time. They move for different reasons: most of them move to find food more
easily, but others move to get away from places that are too crowded.
When cold weather comes, many birds move to warmer places to find food. Some fishes give birth
in warm water and move to cold water to feed. The most famous migration(迁移) is probably the
migration of the fish, which is called "salmon". This fish is born in fresh water but it travels many miles to
salt water. There it spends its life. When it is old, it returns to its birthplace in fresh water. Then it gives
birth and dies there. In northern Europe, there is a kind of mouse. They leave their mountain homes when
they become too crowded. They move down to the low land. Sometimes they move all the way to the
seaside, and many of them are killed when they fall into the sea.
Recently, scientists have studied the migration of a kind of lobster(龙虾). Every year, when the
season of bad weather arrives, the lobster get into a long line and start to walk across the floor of the
ocean. Nobody knows why they do this, and nobody knows where they go.
So, sometimes we know why humans and animals move from one place to another, but at other
times we don"t. Maybe living things just like travel.
B. enjoy warmer weather
C. give birth
D. find beautiful places
B. the weather is bad
C. the place gets too crowded
D. they haven"t enough food
B. how animals can find food easily
C. new discoveries of animals traveling
D. some problems with traveling
move when they dance. They keep on moving until the music stops.
People have enjoyed dancing for a very long time.This story is of a different kind of dance. It is a
dance without people or music. Yet this dance is one of the oldest in the world. It is the dance of bees.
If you have ever watched bees, you know that they are very clever. They also work hard looking for
food and bringing it back to their home.
The home of the bees is called a beehive. Here hundreds even thousands of bees live. They work day
and night building small walls of wax. There they make their honey. This is the same honey that we eat.
Where does the honey come from? Bees live on food from flowers. Have you seen bees flying around a flower garden? When a bee rests on a flower, it tries to go to the centre of it. There it takes in as much
food as its body can hold. Then it flies to take the food back to the hive.
At the hive, bees change this flower food into honey. Then they fly away for more food.
How do the bees know where to find the best food in the sweetest flowers? One bee acts as a guide.When it discovers good flowers, it flies back to the hive and tells the others. It does this by dancing for
them. The bee dances on one side. This tells the otherbees which way to go to find the flowers. But that is
not all. The bee dances for some time. And the length of its dance tells the other bees how far they must
fly to reach the flowers. When the bees see the dance, they know where the flowers are.
They fly away and return with more food for the hive.
Sometimes we hear the music of the bees as they fly around, but few people have ever seen them
dance. Yet without that dance we might never have sweet honey to eat.
B. people learned dance from bees
C. bees dance more often than people
D. bees don"t like music
B. they want to show their beauty
C. they communicate with each other
D. they have nothing to do
B. People draw honey from bees" bodies.
C. People produce honey in a secret place.
D. People get honey from bees indirectly.
B. Hardworking.
C. Music loving.
D. Active.
other bees" dance.
B. the length
C. the place
D. the time
brown eyes, wagging tails, and unconditional love, dogs can provide the nonjudgmental listeners needed
for a beginning reader to gain confidence, according to Intermountain Therapy Animals (ITA) in Salt
Lake City. The group says it is the first program in the country to use dogs to help develop literacy in
children, with the introduction of Reading Edueation Assistance Dogs(READ).
The Salt Lake City Public Library is sold on the idea. "Literacy specialists admit that children who
read below the level of their fellow pupils are often afraid of reading aloud in a group, often have lower
self-respect, and regard reading as a headache," said Lisa Myron, manager of the children"s department.
Last November, the two groups started "Dog Day Afternoon" in the children"s department of the main
library. About 25 children attended each of the four Saturday-afternoon classes, reading for half an
hour. Those who attended three of the four classes received a "pawgraphed" book at the last class.
The program was so successful that the library plans to repeat it in April, according to Dana
Thumpowsky, public relations manager.
B. Advantages of raising dogs.
C. Service in public library.
D. A special reading program.
B. children can play with dogs while reading
C. dogs can provide encouragement for shy children
D. children and dogs understand each other
library ________.
B. accepts the idea put forward by ITA
C. has opened a children"s department
D. has decided to train some dogs
B. a book written by the children
C. a prize for the children
D. a gift from parents

the developing world.Women"s education may be an unusual field for economists, but increasing women"s
contribution to development is actually as much an economic issue as a social one. And economics, with
its focus on incentives(鼓励), provides an explanation for why so many girls are deprived of(剥夺)an
education.
Parents in low income countries fail to invest in their daughters because they do not expect them to
make an economic contribution to the family: girls grow up only to marry into somebody else" s family
and bear children. Girls are thus seen as less valuable than boys and are kept at home to do housework
while their brothers are sent to school-the prophecy(预言)becomes self fulfilling, trapping women in a
vicious circle(恶性循环)of neglect.
An educated mother, on the other hand,has greater earning abilities outside the home and faces an
entirely different set of choices. She is likely to have fewer but healthier children and can insist on the
development of all her children, ensuring that her daughters are given a fair chance. The education of
her daughters then makes it much more likely that the next generation of girls, as well as of boys, will be
educated and healthy. The vicious circle is thus transformed into a virtuous circle.
Few will argue that educating women has great social benefits.But it has enormous economic
advantages as well. Most obviously, there is the direct effect of education on the wages of female
workers. Wages rise by 10 to 20 percent for each additional year of schooling. Such big returns are
impressive by the standard of other available investments, but they are just the beginning. Educating
women also has a significant effect on health practices, including family planning.
these searches have been done over the radio. The hope is that someone in outer space may be trying
to get in touch with us. Scientists also have sent radio and television messages on spaceships traveling
through space, on the chance that someone may answer such messages.
Scientists are using powerful radio telescopes to listen to signals from about 1, 000 stars, all within
100 light years of the earth. In addition, they will scan the entire sky to "listen" for radio messages from
more distant stars. Using a computer, they will be able to monitor more than eight channels at one time.
Scientists are looking for any signal that stands out from the background noise.
Of the 200 billion stars in the Milky Way galaxy(银河星系), scientists find that 5% are like our sun.
Perhaps half of them have a planet like the earth. Such a planet would be a reasonable distance from the
star for temperatures to be right for the evolution(进化) of life. Based on the inhabitable(适于居住的)
planets in our galaxy, most scientists agree that chances are likely that one or more of these planets
support some life.
However, many scientists wonder whether intelligent life exists on other planets. Some believe that
twenty years of searching without any intelligible messages shows that no one is out there. They say that
the evolution of intelligence comparable to ours is unlikely.
Other scientists believe that our search hasn"t been long enough to rule out the possibility that intelligent
life exists in our galaxy. If we hope to find intelligent life, these scientists believe that we have to keep
looking.
B. 10 billion.
C. 15 billion.
D. 200 billion
B. why scientists are looking for signs of life on other planets
C. where scientists are looking for signs of life on other planets
D. when scientists are looking for signs of life on other planets
B. block
C. check
D. form
B. Most scientists believe that there is intelligent life on other planets.
C. Scientists don"t believe that there might be life on other planets.
D. Scientists are trying different ways to find signs of life on other planets.
