Researchers in psychology 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 red, for example, is exciting. Sociable people, those who like to be with others, like red. The cool colors are green, blue and violet. These colors, unlike warm colors, are relaxing. Where there are cool colors, people are usually quiet. People who like to spend time alone often prefer blue.Red may be exciting, but one researcher says that time seems to pass more slowly in a room with warm colors than in a room with cool colors. He suggests that a warm color, such as red or orange is a good color for a living room or restaurant. People who are talking or eating do not want time to pass quickly. Cool colors are better for offices or factories if the people who are working there want time to pass quickly.Researchers do not know why people think some colors are warm and other colors are cool. However, almost everyone agrees that red, orange, and yellow are warm and that green, blue, and violet are cool. Perhaps warm colors remind people of warm days and the cool colors remind them of cool days. Because in the north the sun is higher during summer, the hot summer sunlight appears yellow.13. Which of the following colors belong to cool colors?A. Yellow, greenB. Blue, violetC. Black, blueD. Brown, white14. Which of the following statements is not true?A. Sociable people like warm colors.B. Warm colors can make people excited.C. People who like to be with others don’t like red.D. Where there are warm colors, people want to be active.15. Which is the right color for different rooms?A. Orange for dining-rooms.B. Red or orange for offices.C. Blue for bedrooms.D. Red for studies.16. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A. It shows the reason why people think some colors are warm and others are cool.B. Warm colors remind people of warm days.C. Cool colors remind people of cool days.D. People have an agreeable opinion of warm colors and cool colors.DFor many foreigners who have visited or worked in China, one of their strong impressions is that the country is very safe. Here, you can go out alone late at night to eat at a food stand without feeling nervous. You can also let your younger children ride public transport all by themselves without worrying about their safety.This year, 2018, marks 8 special anniversaries of the launching of the reform and opening up policy, which took place two score years ago in China. Over the past few decades, the country hasachieved fast economic growth, while social peace and stability have been maintained(维护) to the fullest extent at the lowest cost. Of course, there are still unsolved problems. However, from the overall aspect, Chinese society remains harmonious and safe. In my eyes , this should be attributed(归于) largely to the cultural, economic and political environment of the country.A society can be stable and orderly only when its people can lead a prosperous(繁荣的) life. After the introduction of the reform and opening up policy, China achieved fast economic growth and significant scientific and technological progress. In the meantime, the Chinese government has taken various measures such as those to fight corruption, reduce poverty and promote the rule of law, in order to uphold social equity. Thanks to these efforts, the potential factors that might cause social problems have been greatly reduced.Apart from government departments including the police and judicial(司法的) departments , the general public also contributes much to social governance. The development of information technology has created new ways of linking the police and the public. By jointly fighting crimes in such ways, the public and the police have developed an ever-increasing level of mutual trust and positive interaction.The safety and stability in China did not come easily. Rather, it should be attributed to the efforts made by 1.3 billion people. For both Chinese and foreigners living in the country, the sense of safety and security is very precious.17.
