26、   Do you consider redecorating your preschoolers room? What about a new paint job? Before you start painting the wall red, you might want to take a look at some research about the psychology of color from the Paint Quality Institute.

According to Debbie Zimmer, color expert at the Paint Quality Institute, “Color psychology can help you choose paint colors that create the right mood in a room affecting not just your own feelings, but those of everyone who enters the space.” Blue, which often ranks at the top of surveys exploring “favorite” colors, has been shown to slow pulse rate and lower body temperature. So blue is a terrific color choice for bedrooms, but less so for dining rooms, according to Zimmer.

Green, also one of the most popular colors, is a little more versatile (通用的). Zimmer says, “Because it’s calming, green paint is a good color choice for bedrooms, and since it’s the color of many appetizing (开胃的) fruits and vegetables, it can work in dining rooms, too.”

Zimmer says, “Red represents energy and excitement and is associated with desire and passion, so it’s a perfect paint color for dining rooms and adult bedrooms, but wrong for children’s rooms.” “However, pink is one of the most calming colors and is a fine choice for a baby’s room.” she says.

Orange is a happy color too and it has energy and warmth about it. However, it’s clearly not the color of calm, so it’s best not to use it when painting a place where you want to relax, according to Zimmer.

Anyway, the bottom line is to choose what makes you and your little one happy. “No one will spend more time in your home than you will,” says Zimmer, “so it’s important to paint with those colors that are personal favorites. Choose colors you love and you wont go wrong!”

【1】Which room is a place that is painted properly according to color psychology?

A.An orange kid’s room. B.A green dining room.

C.A blue kitchen. D.A red kid’s bedroom.

【2】What does the underlined word “terrific” in Para. 3 mean?

A.Beautiful B.Terrible C.Special D.Wonderful

【3】What color should be avoided when a bedroom is painted?

A.Orange. B.Blue. C.Green. D.Pink.

【4】According to Zimmer, what should we consider first when we choose paint colors?

A.Our personalities. B.Our preference. C.Our purposes. D.Our daily habits.

27、   While Nick was on the bus, reading his newspaper, the man sitting next to him suddenly pushed a large envelope into his hands. “Here, take this!” the man said, stood up and got off the bus before Nick could say a word.

Nick sat there, holding the envelope. It felt heavy. There were papers inside, or money perhaps. “I’d better hand it over to the police,” he thought. There was a police station close to his office. But, as he got off the bus, a man came to him. He seemed to be waiting for something. “He wants the envelope,” Nick thought. Nick began to walk quickly, and the man hurried after him. Nick started to run, and the man began to run, too. But then, just before he got to the police station, Nick managed to lose the man in the crowds. When he entered the police station, the man was no longer in sight.

Inside the police station, Nick handed over the envelope to a policeman in charge. The man opened it. The envelope was full of money, false money. “Clearly the man made a mistake,” the policeman said. “He thought you were one of the gang (团伙)!”

Nick felt like a hero. He could already see his name in all the papers. He could imagine an interview on television.

“However,” the policeman went on, “I’m afraid I must ask you to keep quiet about all this. We’re trying to catch some very clever thieves, and we don’t want them to know that we have some of the money. So you mustn’t say a word to anyone — not even your boss!”

29、   We've known for years that plants can see,hear,smell and communicate with chemicals.Now, reported New Scientist,they have been recorded making sounds when stressed.

In a yet-to-be-published study, Itzhak Khait and his team at Tel Aviv University, in Israel, found that tomato and tobacco plants can make ultrasonic(超声的)noises. The plants "cry out" due to lack of water,or when they are cut. It's just too high-pitched(音调高的）for humans to hear.

Microphones placed 10 centimeters away from the plants picked up sounds in the ultrasonic range of 20 to 100 kilohertz(干赫兹)。Human hearing usually ranges from 20 hertz to 20 kilohertz."These findings can change the way we think about the plant kingdom,”they wrote.

On average,"thirsty"tomato plants made 35 sounds an hour,while tobacco plants made 11. When they were cut,tomato plants made an average of 25 sounds in the following hour,and tobacco plants 15.Unstressed plants produced less than one sound per hour,on average.

Perhaps most interestingly,different types of stress led to different sounds.The researchers trained a machine-learning model to separate the plants' sounds from those of the wind,rain and other noises of the greenhouse.In most cases,it correctly recognized whether the stress was caused by dryness or a cut.Water-hungry tobacco appears to make louder sounds than cut tobacco,for example.Although Khait and his colleagues only looked at tomato and tobacco plants,they think other plants also make sounds when stressed.

If farmers could hear these sounds,said the team,they could give water to the plants that need  it most.As climate change causes more droughts,they said this would be important information for farmers. "The sounds that drought-stressed plants make could be used in precision(精准) agriculture, "said Anne Visscher at the Royal Botanic Gardens,Kew,in the UK.

Khait's report also suggests that insects can hear the sounds up to 5 meters away and respond. For example,a moth(蛾子）may decide not to lay eggs on a water-stressed plant.Edward Farmer. at the University of Lausanne,Switzerland,is doubtful.He said that the idea of moths listening to plants is"a little too speculative”。

If plants are screaming(尖叫）for fear of their survival,maybe we should be glad we can't hear them.

【1】Paragraph 3 mainly explains_______.

A.where humans differ from plants

B.how the research was carried out

C.what the findings of the study are

D.why humans can't hear the cries of plants

【2】Which of the following is TRUE according to the study?

A.All plants make sounds when they feel hungry.

B.Stressed plants make more sounds than unstressed ones.

C.Tobacco plants are more afraid of thirsty than being cut.

D.The more stressed a plant is,the louder sounds it makes.

【3】What does the underlined word"speculative"in Paragraph 7 probably mean?

A.Surprising.

B.Uncertain.

C.Incorrect.

D.Unique.

【4】What is the best title for the text?

A.Deaf humans

B.Stressed plants

C.Silent screams

D.Precision agriculture

30、   Have you seen people who take pictures of food for more than 10 minutes before eating? My friend Stella is  such an example. Every time we went to a restaurant, she would not take a bite until all the dishes we _______ were on the table. Then she would spend five minutes in _______ the dishes in a seemingly random but in fact _______ order. Then the most important part: taking pictures. After that, she would choose one of the _______ and click in the filter(滤镜)app. The food eventually looked 10 times more delicious than it really was, but we had no _______ to really enjoy it—it all went cold. Actually Stella’s real life is much less elegant. For example, she hates to wash the dishes, so she leaves them in the sink for days.

31、Directions: Complete the following passages by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.

The elementary means of communicating with other people is conveying messages by voice. This fact is widely acknowledged and we recognize the voice as a(n) 【1】 characterizing the identity of a person. The array of voices is immeasurable as no two are exactly similar. They can be nasal, resonant or shrill produced in accordance with the individual physical【2】 of the throat.

One possible implementation of the 【3】 of voice recognition is voice profiling used by police analysts as a method of substantiating court evidence in trials. Every year, thousands of audiotapes with recorded interviews or 【4】 utterances are put to the purpose to help identify the probable 【5】. Specialists dealing with the voice investigation claim that people can give themselves away by their 【6】, inflections or other voice attributes like pitch, intensity and loudness. A recorded sample is usually 【7】 into electric impulses and later transformed into a pictorial recoding which is processed by a computer program. Very frequently voice analyst have a stake at deciphering the relevant information which may be 【8】 with background noise or other interfering sounds until they attain the 【9】 results.

Thankfully, these efforts help the police detect individuals who threaten their victims by phone or inform about bomb 【10】 or those who make offensive calls disturbing the peach of decent citizens.
