第一节

Many everyday American expressions are based on colors.

Red is a hot color. Americans often use it to express heat. They may say they are red hot about

something unfair. When they are red hot they are very angry about something. The small hot

tasting peppers found in many Mexican foods are called red hots for their color and their fiery taste.

Pink is a lighter kind of color. People sometimes say they are in the pink when they are in good

health. It probably comes from the fact that many babies are born with a nice pink color that shows

that they are in good health.

Blue is a cool color. The traditional blues music in the United States is the opposite of red hot

music. Blues is slow, sad and soulful. Someone who is blue is very sad.

The color green is natural for trees and grass. But it is an unnatural color for humans. A person

who has a sick stomach may say he feels a little green. A passenger on a boat who is feeling very

sick from high waves may look very green. If a person is green at his job, he may be a newcomer

and inexperienced. Sometimes a person may be upset because he does not have something as nice

as a friend has, like a new sports car. That person may say he is green with envy. Some people are

green with envy because their friend has more dollars.

The color black is used often in expressions. People describe a day in which everything goes

wrong as a black day. The date of a major tragedy is remembered as a black day.

36. If a person feels blue, he is _____.

A. annoyed B. depressed

C. stressed D. encouraged

37. If someone says “you are still green”, he probably means that _______.

A. you are very young B. you are in a bad mood

C. you are inexperienced D. you are in good health

38. What’s the main idea of the passage?

A. Different colors have different meanings B. What different colors stand for.

C. The story about different colors. D. Colors used in American expressions.

Robert and Peter study in the same university. They do everything together and help each other.

But they often play jokes on each other.

The school year was over last month and they decided to travel through the country in America.

They drove a car and could stop wherever they were interested and started whenever they wanted.

Of course they enjoyed themselves. It was very hot one day and they were both hungry and thirsty.

They stooped in front of a restaurant by the road. They came in, sat down at a table and ordered

some dishes. Robert looked around and found there was a small bowl on the table. He thought

there was some ice cream in it and took a spoonful of it and put it into his mouth. Immediately he

knew it was mustard(芥末),but it was too late. Tears ran down his face, but he pretended nothing

had happened. The other young man, seeing his friend crying, asked , “ What are you crying about,

Robert?” “I’m thinking of my father who was hanged twenty years ago,” was his reply.

After a while Peter made the same mistake. Tears ran down his face. Too. And his friend asked him

Jeanne Calment, a French woman, became a record breaker on 17 October of 1995, when at the age of 120 years and 238 days, she became the longest-lived human being on record. A Japanese man died in 1986 at the age of 120 years and 237 days.

Jeanne Calment lives in a small old people's home in the south of France; her husband, her only child and her grandson have all died. She is nearly blind and deaf and is always in a wheelchair, but her doctor describes her as being more like a 90-year-old in good health than someone of 120. She still has a lively sense of humor. When asked on her 120th birthday what she expected of the future, she replied: A very short one. She also remarked that she thought the good Lord had forgotten all about her.

So what is the key to a long life? According to some doctors, diet, exercise and no smoking are the three important factors. Jeanne Calment has followed two of the tips(窍门). She has always eaten a healthy diet, and she used to do exercises every day until she broke her leg at the age of 115. However, until recently she drank two glassed of strong red wine a day, and she does smoke (now only a little). Besides, Jeanne Calment might have got very good genes(基因) from her parents. Her father lived to the age of 94 and her mother to 86.

A local lawyer bought her house when she was 80 under an agreement that he would pay her some money every year until her death. It must have seemed a good move at the time, but so far the lawyer has paid her at least three times the value of the house. Every year on her birthday Jeanne Calment sends him a card saying:

Sorry, I'm still alive!

43. How does Jeanne Calment feel about her old age?

A. She is miserable and unhappy.

B. She is cheerful and humorous.

C. She would like to live much longer.

D. She feels she is going to die very soon.

44. Jeanne Calment owes her good health and long life to _______.

A. smoking only a little every day

B. her giving up smoking and drinking

C. drinking two glasses of strong red wine every day

D. the good genes from her parents, a healthy diet and some exercises

45. Which of the following could best replace the word "move" in the fourth paragraph?

A. deal B. trick C. march D. sport

46. Why does Jeanne Calment say "Sorry, I'm still alive" to the local lawyer every year on her birthday?

A. Because she had an agreement at 80 with the lawyer which was to her advantage.

B. Because she has asked the lawyer to pay her more rent than they first agreed.

C. Because the lawyer has paid her much more money than the value of the house.

D. Because the house she sold to the lawyer isn't worth the money he has already paid. D

The most frightening words in the English language are, "Our computer is down." You hear it

more and more when you are on business. The other day I was at the airport waiting for a ticket to Washington and the girl in the ticket office said, "I'm sorry, I can't sell you a ticket. Our computer is down."

"If your computer is down, just write me out a ticket."

"I can't write you out a ticket. The computer is the only one allowed to do so."

I looked down on the computer and every passenger was just standing there drinking coffee and staring at the black screen. Then I asked her, "What do all you people do?"

"We give the computer the information about your trip, and then it tells us whether you can fly with us or not."

"So when it goes down, you go down with it."

"That's good, sir."

"How long will the computer be down?" I wanted to know.

"I have no idea. Sometimes it's down for 10 minutes, sometimes for two hours. There's no way we can find out without asking the computer, and since it's down it won't answer us."

After the girl told me they had no backup(备用) computer, I said. "Let's forget the computer. What about your planes? They're still flying, aren't they?"

"I couldn't tell without asking the computer."

"Maybe I could just go to the gate and ask the pilot if he's flying to Washington, " I suggested. "I wouldn't know what gate to send you to. Even if the pilot was going to Washington, he couldn't take you if you didn't have a ticket."

"Is there any other airline flying to Washington within the next few hours?"

"I wouldn't know, " she said, pointing at the dark screen. "Only 'IT' knows. 'It' can't tell me." By this time there were quite a few people standing in lines. The word soon spread to other travelers that the computer was down. Some people went white, some people started to cry and still others kicked their luggage.

47. The best title for the article is _______.

A. When the Computer Is Down B. The Most Frightening Words

C. The Computer of the Airport D. Asking the Computer

48. What could the girl in the ticket office do for the passengers without asking the computer?

A. She could sell a ticket.

B. She could write out a ticket.

C. She could answer the passengers' questions.

D. She could do nothing.

49. Why do you think they had not a backup computer?

A. Because it was easy down. B. Because it was very expensive.

C. Because it was not advanced enough. D. Because it was not as big as the main computer.

50. The last paragraph suggests that _______.

A. a modern computer won't be down.

B. computers can take the place of humans

C. sometimes a computer may bring suffering to people

D. there will be great changes in computers
