What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, and red? If you do, you must be an optimist(樂觀者), a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. Do you prefer grays and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy and you would rather follow than lead. If you love green, you are strong-minded and determined. You wish to succeed and want other people to see you are successful. At least this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference(愛好), and the effect that colors have on human beings. They tell us that we don't choose our favorite color as we grow up. 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.
A yellow room makes us feel more cheerful and more comfortable than a dark green one, and a red dress rings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing(壓抑). Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active. It is a fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or dark gray.
Remember, then, that if you feel low, you can always brighten your day or your life with a new shirt or a few colorful things. Remember also that you will know your friends and your enemies better when you find out what colors they like and dislike. And don't forget that anyone can guess a lot about your character when you choose a piece of handkerchief.
小題1:According to this passage,           .
A.one can choose his color preference  
B.one is born with his color preference
C.one’s color preference is changeable
D.one has to choose his favorite color as soon as he can see clearly
小題2:The main idea of this passage is           .
A.one's color preference shows one's character
B.you can brighten your life with wonderful colors
C.psychologists have been studying the meaning of color preference
D.one's color preference has something to do with his character and colors have effects on human beings
小題3:The writer believes that in realizing the four modernizations of country, we need more people who love          .
A.yellowB.redC.greenD.black

Howling(吼叫) is a behavior commonly observed among a wolf pack(狼群). As pack animals, wolves work together to hunt and rely on howling as an important means of communication among each other. There’re different explanations of a wolf’s howl and it appears that there may be more to discover.
One theory is that wolves howl to bond better together. It’s almost as if howling together helps the pack stay together. Perhaps something similar to people feeling a sense of involvement with each other when singing a song together. But this theory may be wrong, explains Fred H. Harrington, a professor who studies wolf behavior.
Indeed, there have been times when wolves have been seen one moment howling in a chorus(合唱), and the next, quarreling among each other. It appears that usually the lowest-ranking members of the pack may actually be “punished” for joining in the chorus at times. So is howling a way to strengthen a social bond or just a way to reconfirm status (地位) among its members? Why do wolves howl for sure?
What is clear, however, is that howling is often used among pack mates to locate each other. Hunting grounds are distant and it happens that wolves may separate from one another at times. When this happens, howling appears to be an excellent means of gathering.
Howling, interestingly, is a contagious behavior. When one wolf starts to howl, very likely others will follow. This is often seen to occur in the morning, as if wolves were doing some sort of “roll call” where wolves all howl together to report their
小題1:What is the possible similarity between wolves’ howling together and human’s singing in chorus?
A.The act of calling each other.
B.The sense of accomplishment.
C.The act of hunting for something.
D.The sense of belonging to a group.
小題2:Why does Harrington think the “social bond” theory may be wrong?
A.Wolves separate from each other after howling.
B.Wolves tend to protect their hunting grounds.
C.Wolves sometimes have quarrels after howling together.
D.Wolves of low rank are encouraged to join in the chorus.
小題3:Researchers are sure that wolves often howl to______.
A.show their ranks B.find their companions
C.report the missing onesD.express their loneliness
小題4:“Howling… is a contagious behaviour”(in the last paragraph)means_______.
A.howling is a signal for hunting
B.howling is a way of communication
C.howling often occurs in the morning
D.howling spreads from one to another

Now and again I have had horrible dreams, but not enough of them to make me lose my delight in dreams. To begin with. I like the idea of dreaming, of going to bed and lying still and then, by some queer magic, wandering into another kind of existence. As a child, I could never understand why grown-ups took dreaming so calmly when they could make such a fuss about any holiday, this still puzzles me. I am puzzled by people who say they never dream and appear to have no interest in the subject. It is much more astonishing than it would be if they said they never went out for a walk. Most people do not seem to accept dreaming as part of their lives. They appear to see it as an irritating little habit, like sneezing or yawning I can never understand this. My dream life does not seem as important as my waking life because there is far less of it, but to me it is important.
小題1:What is the author’s attitude toward dreaming?
A.He thinks it puzzling
B.He likes it
C.He is interested in it
D.He doesn’t accept it as part of his life
小題2: For the author of the passage, dreaming is________.    .
A.a(chǎn)nother kind of existence
B.a(chǎn)n irritating little habit
C.a(chǎn) horrible but wonderful experience
D.a(chǎn) true reflection of reality
小題3:The author of the passage suggests that people who say they never go out for a walk are_____.
A.interestingB.unbelievable
C.mysterious(難以理解的)D.lazy
小題4:Why does the author of the passage complain?
A.Because most people are overexcited about their dreams
B.Because most people are not interested in talking about their dreams
C.Because most people have had dreams most of the time
D.Because most people consider their dreams of too much importance

Most American students go to traditional public schools.There are about 88, 000 public schools, all over the US.Some students attend about 3000 independent public schools called charter schools.
Charter schools are self-governing.Private companies operate some charter schools.They are similar in some ways to traditional public schools.They receive tax money just as other public schools do.Charter schools must prove to local or state governments that their students are learning.These governments provide the schools with the agreement called a charter that permits them to operate.
Charter schools are different because they do not have to obey most laws governing traditional public schools.Local, state, or federal governments cannot tell them what to teach.Each school can choose its own goals and decide the ways it wants to reach them.Class size is usually smaller than in traditional public schools.
The Bush Administration strongly supports charter schools as a way to re-organize public schools that are failing to educate students.But some education agencies and unions oppose charter schools.One teachers' union has just made public the results of the first national study comparing the progress of students in traditional schools and charter schools.
The American Federation of Teachers criticized the government's delay in releasing the results of the study, which is called the National Assessment of Educational Progress.Union education experts say the study shows that charter school students performed worse on math and reading tests than students in regular public schools.
Some experts say the study is not a fair look at charter schools because students in those schools have more problems than students in traditional schools.Other education experts say the study results should make charter school officials demand improved student progress.
小題1:If a private company wants to operate a charter school, it must______.
A.try new methods of teachingB.prove its management ability
C.obey the local and state lawsD.get the government's permission
小題2:What's the government's attitude toward charter schools?

Scientists are worried that an asteroid(小行星) will possibly hit the earth in 2036. If scientists are right, planet earth is 24 years away from a major disaster.
Scientists have been monitoring the progress of a 390-metre-wide asteroid ever since it was discovered last June. They have announced that it could hit the earth, causing huge damage, in 2036.
NASA estimates that the impact from the asteroid named after Apophis and ancient Egyptian demon(魔鬼) would release more than 100,000 times the energy released in the nuclear explosion over Hiroshima. Thousands of square kilometers would be directly affected by the explosion. The whole planet would see the effects of the dust released into the atmosphere.
This is the worst possible scenario(情景) of any asteroid in recorded history.
Having more than 20 years’ warning of possible impact might seem plenty of time. But scientists insist that there is actually very little time left to decide.
Luckily, however, they aren’t short on ideas for deflecting the asteroid. The favored method is also probably the easiest—throwing a spacecraft at the asteroid to change its direction. The European Space Agency plans to test this in the next decade.
One idea that seems to have no support from astronomers is the use of explosive, although this sounds more likely to the public or Hollywood producer.
At present, scientists are trying to make a better estimate of how much time we have, through more observations.
In spring of next year, there will be another chance for radar observation of Apophis. This will help astronomers calculate the orbits of the asteroid more accurately.
If, at that stage, they can’t rule out an impact with the earth in 2036, the next chance to make better observations will not be until 2016, then 2029.
“If we wait until 2029 and the worst—case scenario turns out to be true, it would seem unlikely that we’d be able to do anything about 2036,” warns Prof Fitzsimmons.
小題1:What does the underlined word “deflecting” most probably mean?
A.making it smaller.
B.observing it clearly enough.
C.dividing into pieces.
D.changing its direction.
小題2:According to the scientists’ observation, _______.
A.the asteroid named Apophis will explode in 2036.
B.the asteroid named Apophis might hit the earth in 2036.
C.the asteroid named Apophis is 24 years old.
D.there is plenty of time to decide the way we deal with the asteroid.
小題3:What is the impact from Apophis if it hits the earth?
A.It will damage Hiroshima.
B.Thousands of square kilometers would see the effects of the dust released into the atmosphere.
C.It might be the worst damage caused by asteroids in recorded history.
D.The whole planet would be directly affected by the explosion.
小題4:It can be inferred from the text that _____.
A.Hollywood producers will explode Apophis to avoid its hit.
B.There are only two chances for scientists to make better observations if they can’t grasp the chance next year.
C.NASA plans to throw a spacecraft at Apophis to change its direction.
D.It is supportive from astronauts that we explode the Apophis.

Radio, TV, film, and new video technology bring to mind visions of bright, exciting, high-paying careers. Many young people are attracted to wonder: Is there a place for me in the broadcast media field?
People in the business warn that the road to a successful broadcast media career can be very rocky. They point out that getting started in the field is often difficult. To begin with, competition for most broadcast jobs can be fierce. Then, once on the job, the pressure is often big. Many jobs in broadcasting require long working hours, including nights and weekends. In most cases, the salaries are not very high.
What can you do to prepare for a career in broadcast media? Getting some kind of broadcasting experience during high school or college can be extremely important. Because the field is so popular, many employers are in a position to select beginners with developed skills.
You can start by becoming familiar with media while still in high school. If there is a media resource department in your school, volunteer to do anything. If there is no media department, take photos of games and social events. Work on the drama productions or write for the school newspaper.
Many beginners in broadcasting start at small local radio or TV stations. Such stations are usually more willing than the networks to take on people with little or no experience. Here, you have a chance to be involved in many aspects of the broadcast industry and get trained on the job.
小題1:According to the writer, jobs with the TV networks ________.
A.require experience with local stations

We all know how important human life is—it’s priceless. It doesn’t matter where you are from or what the color of your skins is—all people are human beings. Firstly, we can tell you that the lives of your relatives could depend on your ability to give first aid. If you think highly of human’s life, this website is for you! Here you can find information about first aid.
The very first thing that you should do when you see an accident is to evaluate the situation and prevent further dangerous incidents. First of all, you have to recognize what has happened and what the dangers to rescuers and victims are. Think about how to take care of the victims.
Helping usually takes place in very difficult conditions and injuries can be very bad. Therefore, you cannot be too afraid of making mistakes to help. Sometimes you have to face the fact that regardless of your actions and your efforts the victim’s condition might not improve—he or she could even die. In some cases even professional medical aid may not succeed. If you have done everything you think you should do, you shouldn’t feel guilty.
Do not expose yourself to danger. Giving first aid can be dangerous. While trying to help a victim, do not forget about your own safety. If something happens to you, you won’t be able to help anyone.
Call for help after you find out the condition of a victim. But remember if a victim faints due to breathing failure caused by drowning, choking or poisoning, you should first take actions that help to bring back the heart beat and breathing. While calling, talk shortly but clearly. Always provide the following information: the location of the accident, the kind of accident, the number of the injured and your full name and phone number and so on.
小題1:The passage is probably taken from _________.
A.a(chǎn) newspaperB.the InternetC.a(chǎn) textbookD.a(chǎn) guide book
小題2:The underlined word “ evaluate” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to _______.
A.leaveB.protectC.a(chǎn)voidD.judge
小題3: What’s the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A.You should learn some professional knowledge about first aid.
B.You shouldn’t feel guilty if you don’t know about first aid.
C.Try your best to give first aid and don’t be afraid of making mistakes
D.Don’t make mistakes when you are giving first aid.
小題4:The author thinks that helping a victim can be ____________.
A.riskyB.shockingC.excitingD.boring
小題5:It can be inferred from the passage that __________.
A.young people must learn how to give first aid
B.you should forget about your own safety while giving first aid.
C.when you see an accident you should do nothing but call the police.
D.when calling for help you should give all relevant details.
