    AIn general, people talk about two groups of colors: warm colors and cool colors. Scientists 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 what red symbolizes is exciting sociable people who like to be with others like red. The cool colors are green, blue and purple. These colors unlike warm colors, are relaxing. Where there are cool colors, people there are usually quiet. People who like to spend time alone often prefer blue.Red may be exciting but one scientist says that time seems to pass more slow in a room with warm colors than in a room with cool colors. He suggested that a warm color such as red or orange, is a good color for a living room or a restaurant. People who are relaxing or eating don’t want time to pass quickly.Cool colors are better for offices or factories as the people who work there want time to pass quickly. Scientist don’t know why people think some colors are warm and other colors are cool.However, almost everyone agree that warm colors remind people of warm days and cool colors remind them of cool days. Because in the north the sun is low during winter, the sunlight appears quite blue. Because it is higher during summer, the hot summer sunlight appears yellow.

B) 阅读下面两篇短文，从各小题所给的四个选项中选出能回答所提问或完成所 给句子的最佳答案。（共10小题，计20分）

    BIn England recently three foreign gentlemen came to a bus stop and waited. About five minutes later, the bus they wanted came along. They were just going to get on when suddenly there was a loud noise behind them. People rushed onto the bus and tried to push them out of the way. Someone shouted at them. The bus conductor came rushing down the stairs to see what all the trouble was about. The three foreigners seem all at sea and looked embarrassed. No one had told them about the British custom(习惯) of lining up for a bus that the first person who arrives at the bus stop is the first person to get on the bus.

    Learning the language of a country isn’t enough. If you want to have a pleasant visit, find out as much as possible about the manners and customs of your host country. You will probably be surprised just how different they can be from your own. A visitor to India would do well to remember that people there consider it impolite to use the left hand. Also in India, you might see a man shaking his head at another to show that he doesn’t agree. But in many parts of India a shake of the head means agreement. Nodding(点头) your head when you are given a drink in Bulgaria will most probably leave you thirsty.

    In that country, you shake your head to mean ‘yes’ ---- a nod means ‘no’. At a meal in countries on the Arabic Peninsula, you will find that your glass is repeated refilled as soon as you drink up. If you think that you have had enough, you should take the cup or glasses in your hand and give it a little shake from side to side or place your hand over the top.

    In Europe it quite usual to cross your legs when you are sitting talking to someone even at an important meeting. Doing this in Thailand, however, could bring about trouble. Also, you should try to avoid （避免） touching the head of an adult ( 成人) --- it’s just not done in Thailand.

A. were foreigners

Ⅴ. 任务型阅读 （共5题，计5分）阅读下面短文，根据短文内容，完成句子。（共5小题，计10分）

A good reader is very much like a driver. He must change his reading speed to fit his purpose and the material he is reading, just as a driver does fit the road situation. A good reader may be able to read a thousand words per minute (WPM), but he won’t use that speed for everything he reads. A good reader doing research reading in the library may read at the speed of 1,000 words per minute as he looks for materials for a report. But once he finds something that is useful to him, he may need to slow down to 100 WPM. A good reader may read newspaper and magazine articles at 600 WPM. But it may take him 150 WPM to read his science or math text. Just as a driver has a wide change of speed, so has a good reader.

1. According to the writer, good readers can change ______________ as needed.

2. The passage tells us that the speed of reading depends on _______________.

3. A good reader may use the highest speed of reading when _____________.

4. The passage suggests that a good driver should ____________________.

5. This passage is mainly about __________________.
