What is your favourite colour? Do you like yellow, orange or red? If you do, you must be an active person who enjoys life. Do you like blue? Then you may be quiet, shy and prefer following to leading.
Colours influence our moods. There is a relationship between colours and moods. A yellow room makes people feel cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings us warmth and joy on the saddest winter day. Black is depressing (令人压抑的). There was a black bridge over River Thames. The number of people who killed themselves on that bridge used to be larger than that on any other bridge in the area---until it was repainted green.
Light and bright colours make people not only happier but also more active. In the factory, the workers will work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black.
61. An active person may like ________.
A. yellow, orange or red B. yellow, black or red
C. orange, blue or black D. green, blue or brown
62. Most people feel more _______ in a yellow room than in a dark green one.
A. tired B. bored C. relaxed D. worried
63. Why did more people kill themselves on the black bridge than on any other bridge?
A. Because the bridge was too crowded. B. Because people didn’t like the bridge.
C. Because the colour of the bridge was depressing.
D. Because no one saved them.
64. In the factory, when the machines are painted orange, the workers will work ______.
A. worse B. harder C. more slowly D. more carelessly
65. Which is the best title for the passage?
A. Your Favourite Colour B. The Secret of Colour
C. The Colour of A Bridge D. Stop People from Killing Themselves
C
Americans use many expressions with the word dog. People in the United States love their dogs and treat them well. They take their dogs for walks, let them play outside and give them good food and medical care. However, dogs without owners to care for them lead a different kind of life. The expression, to lead a dog’s life, describes a person who has an unhappy existence.
Some people say we live in a dog-eat-dog world. That means many people are competing for the same things, like good jobs. They say that to be successful, a person has to work like a dog. This means they have to work very, very hard. Such hard work can make people dog-tired. And, the situation（状况） would be even worse if they became sick as a dog.
A Cavalier King Charles Spaniel (the name of a kind of dog), is groomed for months before competing in the Oklahoma City Summer Classic Dog Show and can be the winner sometimes. So people say every dog has its day. This means that every person enjoys a successful period during his or her life. To be successful, people often have to learn new skills. Yet, some people say that you can never teach an old dog new tricks. They believe that older people do not like to learn new things and will not change the way they do things.
Some people are compared to dogs in bad ways. People who are unkind or uncaring can be described as meaner than a junkyard dog(比垃圾场的狗更凶狠). Junkyard dogs live in places where people throw away things they do not want. Mean dogs are often used to guard this place. They bark or attack people who try to enter the place. However, sometimes a person who appears to be mean and threatening is really not so bad. We say barking dogs never bark.
Dog expressions are also used to describe the weather. The dog days of summer are the hottest days of the year. A rainstorm may cool the weather. But we do not want it to rain too hard. We do not want it to rain cats and dogs.
66. What does this passage mainly talk about?
A. How to live with the dog. B. Expressions related to(与...相关) the dog.
C. Americans’ love for the dog. D. Dog expressions with the weather.
67.Working too hard can make people ___________.
13
A. lead a dog’s life B. become sick as a dog C. live in a dog-eat-dog world D. work like a dog
68.What does the underlined word “groomed” mean?
A. trained B. honored C. awarded D. dressed
69. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Everyone can be successful if he learns from the old.
B. It might be difficult for the young to learn new skills.
C. Junkyard dogs are careful in money arrangement.
D. Mean dogs aren’t so awful as their appearance in fact.
70. To support her idea, the author develops the passage mainly by ________.
A. listing reasons B. using quotations（引用语）
C. making comparisons（作比较） D. giving examples

Mistakes are great teachers. Success comes to those who are willing to risk making mistakes to achieve their goals and wishes, and who are able to learn from those mistakes. And in order to learn from mistakes you must be willing to pay for them.
Mistakes can be very valuable, but when you try to get others to pay for your mistakes, then you lose the chance to learn from them. When something goes wrong, it’s usually very easy to find someone else’s mistakes, but is that useful ? Of course not.
Much of the value of mistakes comes from the fact that they need to cost that must be paid. The person who learns the most from a mistake is the one who pays the price for that mistake.
When you make a mistake, what you shouldn’t do is to run away from it. You need to accept it because you can learn a lot from it. The mistake has been made, so make the most of it. Pay the price, learn the lesson, and grow that much stronger.
When you make a mistake, don’t look back at it long. Remember the reason for it, and then look forward. Mistakes are lessons of wisdom. The past cannot be changed. The present is still in your power. Make full use of your mistakes to achieve your goals and wishes.

It is often said that the best time in the life of anyone is the time that he spends in school. And the best time of my life came to an end on the 5th of February ,which was my last day at school.
Since it was the day to leave my friends, classmates and teachers, the farewell party(告别会)was heart-breaking. It was time to leave my dear school, where I had spent ten years of my life.
The farewell party took place in the big hall. This was the first time that I hadn’t worn my school uniform in the past twelve years. Though sad, I felt great.
In the beginning, there was the ceremony (仪式)of lighting the lamp (灯). It was lit by the headmaster of our school. This was followed by the students of the 12th class lighting their candles from the big lamp. Then came the students of the 11th class, hosting the party. It included delicious food and drinks. After the party, there was a program of entertainment. Some students sang songs and some danced.
Along with the programs, some of the students collected autographs (签名) of their favorite teachers. The headmaster and teachers gave speeches in English and Hindi(印度语). Finally, they all wished us great success, not only in the examination, but in life, too.
Then we took many photos together. This continued until it was time for the party to stop. And, by and by, all of us returned home with a sad heart and a lot of memories of our school years.

Mrs Rainbow named four types of personality with four colours--- red, blue, yellow and green. If you are a red person, you must be a true friend and you are willing to help people at any time. You are also good at making speeches. But you don’t like rules and sometimes you are crazy about something easily. If you are a blue person, you may be good at solving problems because you can organize things well. But sometimes you are easily sad and like to be alone. If you are a yellow person, you will care more about the result. You always want to be more successful.
13
So, of course, sometimes you will care little about other people’s feelings. Now, let’s turn to the green people, they are friendly and easy to make friends with. But unlike the colour green, they are boring and they are not willing to change. What is your colour?
