     What is your favourite colour? Do you like yellow, orange, red? ___1___ . Do you prefer greys and
blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be pessimist. At least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously
studying the meaning of colour preference, as well as the effect that colours have on human beings.
___2___ . If you happen to love brown, you did so, as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.
     ___3___ . A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green
one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. ___4___ . A black bridge over
the Thames River, near London, used to be the scene of more suicides(自***) than any other bridge in the area---until it was repainted green. The number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply. Perhaps it
would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.
     ___5___ . It is an established fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or grey.


A. On the other hand, black is depressing.
B. They tell us, among other facts, that we do not choose our favourite colour as we grow up --- we are
     born with our preference.
C. The rooms are painted in different colours as you like.
D. If you do, you must be an optimist, a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement.
E. Light and bright colours make people not only happier but more active.
F. Life is like a picture or a poem, full of different colours.
G. Colours do influence our moods---there is no doubt about it

阅读理解     I loved music when I was young. I learned to play the guitar at 11 and I wrote my first song four years
later. My dream was to become a country singer.
After years of hard work, a record company was showing interest in me. One day during a trip to
Nashcille, a friend offered me a bit of meth (一种兴奋剂).I didn"t know then that meth is the easiest,
cheapest drug to get, and also one of the most addictive. So I smoked it and that was all I thought about
for the next year and a half .I couldn"t live without it.
     When the police arrested me, I looked like death. The first seven days in prison, I just slept. when I
woke up on the eighth day, I had never known such shame and guilt. I walked down the hall to the pay
phone. My mum is the sweetest person on the planet, and I knew this was going to break her heart. When
I heard her voice on the phone, I told her where I was . She just said : "son, don"t you know you can"t do
anything to make me not love you?"
     Her words gave me the strength to face my trouble. And I also realized this was my chance to start a
new life.
     When people know my story, I hope they will not make the same mistake as I have, but I do know that
you can overcome almost anything, especially drug abuse. That"s why I share my story here.1. Which was the writer"s favorite music when he was in his teens?A. Rock music    
B. Classical music    
C. Jazz music  
D. Country music2. How long was the writer addicted to drug?A. About half a year    
B. About one year    
C. One and a half years  
D. Two years3. The writers was put into prison most probably because he _____.A. offered others drugs  
B. took drugs
C. stopped working with a record company
D. refused to pay off all his debts

but the song you"d  practised so many times suddenly  2 more difficult?
     I"ve had both these  3 .As a  Senior Student, I have to  4  many exams. Each time, I enter one,
thinking "I  5 fail this time.", I get a low mark.
     But don"t be surprised-- it"s not  6 we don"t try, or do enough preparation,  7 take it seriously. On the
contrary, it is because we put ourselves under too much 28 . It is thinking:" I must..." that makes us taste
the terrible flavor of  9 .
     We often 10  to our friends:"Don"t be too hard 11 yourself!" But when we  12   our own goals, we
may not listen to our own advice.

     So why not  13 this crazy pursuit to get the best? Just face the problem  14 before you with a calm
mind ,enjoy the hard work and you will succeed.
     In my opinion, 15 a calm state of mind is a skill for life. For people who want to succeed,  16 this is
a very important lesson.

      I live in the land of Disney, Hollywood and year - round sun. You may think People ,n such an
attractive, fun - filled place are happier than others. If so you have some mistaken ideas about the
nature of happiness.
      Many intelligent people still think fun equals happiness. The truth is that fun and happiness have
little or nothing in common. Fun is what we experience during an act. Happiness is what we experience
after an act. It is a deep, long-lasting emotion.
      Going to an amusement park or a ball game, watching a movie or television are fun activities that
help us relax, temporally forget our problems and maybe even laugh. But they do not bring happiness,
because their positive effects end when the fun ends.
      I have often thought that if Hollywood stars have a role to play, it is to teach us that happiness has
nothing to do with fun. They have constant access to exciting parties, fancy cars, expensive homes,
everything that spells "happiness" But in memoir(回忆录) after memoir, they expose Ac unhappiness
hidden beneath all their fun: depression, alcoholism, drug addiction, broken marriages and loneliness.
      Ask a bachelor why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying.
If he is honest, he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment. For commitment is in fact quite
painful. The single life is filled with fun, adventure and excitement. Marriage has such moments, but they
are not its most distinguishing features.
     Similarly, couples that choose not to have children are deciding in favor of painless fun over painful
happiness. They can dine out whenever they want and sleep as late as they want. Couples with babies
are lucky to get a whole night" s sleep. I don"t know any parent who would choose the word fun to
describe raising children.
      Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most
liberating realizations we can ever come to. It liberates time: now we can devote more hours to activities
that can truly increase our happiness. It liberates money: buying that new car or those fancy clothes that
will do nothing to increase our happiness now seems pointless. And it frees us from envy: we now
understand that all those rich and famous people we were so sure are happy because they are always
having so much fun actually may not be happy at all.

1. What is the passage mainly about?

A. Fun and happiness.
B. Success and satisfaction.
C. Marriage and commitment.
D. Entertainment and responsibility.
 
2. The author probably agrees that ____.

A. fun creates long - lasting satisfaction
B. long - standing fun may lead to happiness
C. fun is short-lived while happiness is long-lasting
D. fun provides enjoyment while pain leads to happiness

3. What does the author think of marriage?

A. It ends in pain.              
B. It means commitment.
C. It affords greater fun.          
D. It leads to raising children.

4. If one gets the real meaning of happiness, he ____.

A. will start a business          
B. won" t place too much value on money
C. will seek for freedom        
D. won"t devote himself to his family
