To save them, the Chinese government started the Chinese Language Resources Protection Project a few years ago. This project looks at how people talk in 1,712 places. Their languages include 103 dialects that are almost gone. It has helped China to build the largest language resource library in the world. There’s an online library where people can learn dialects from over 5.6 million audio clips (音频) and over 5 million videos.Why is it important to protect the dialect culture According to British linguist Harold Palmer, dialects are a key to store local cultures. Language faithfully shows the history, the beliefs and the biases (偏见) of an area, he said.Scholar Zhang Hongming talked about his concerns of the disappearing of dialeets, “For about over 10 years, in the Wu dialect areas such as Shanghai and Suzhou, children aged 6 to 15 can understand but hardly speak the dialect. Meanwhile, young people above 15 years old sometimes speak it, but not very well. If this keeps happening, the dialect might disappear,” he said.So how did China make this big library “A big national effort has been put into the project to make it happen,” said Cao Zhiyun, chief expert on the project. Over five years, more than 350universities and research groups joined in, along with over 4,500 experts and more than 6,000 dialect speakers.The project is now entering into its second part. This includes creating digital tools like apps and mobile dictionaries to help people lean dialects.4．How does the author start the textA. By quoting sayings.B. By sharing a story.C. By stating his own experiences.D. By asking a question. 5．What’s the third paragraph mainly aboutA. The development of Mandarin.B. Why to protect dialects.C. How to develop speaking skills.D. The disappearing of dialects. 6．What’s Zhang Hongming’s attitude to Wu dialectA. Worried.B. Positive.C. Indifferent.D. Unelear.7．What can we know about the project according to the textA. It has entered into the third part.B. Over 5.6 millions videos are collected in the project.C. It looks at how people talk in 1,712 places.D. Harold Palme is the chief expert on the project.Do you ever get restless if you haven’t checked your phone for a few minutes If so, you’re not alone. Studies reveal that people these days check their phones once every four minutes on average! Some of this usage may be related to work. However, much of it isbecause many apps — particularly social media apps —use “clever techniques” to keep us coming back for more.One of such techniques is to push notificatio ns. You’re getting on with your work or something else when — ping! — a notification pops up on your screen, informing you that a friend has posted something new or commented on your post. It may seem like a small interruption, but it often is enough to break your concentration and make you go back to your phone again. Another method is to make a game of the in-app experience by setting up a competitive goal element. Some apps, for example, uses streaks (连续纪录), which count the number of days you have used the app. If you keep a streak going, you might get a medal or some other rewards. Therefore, keeping one’s streak alive becomes a major reason to return to the app again and again.Once you’ve opened an app, its goal is now to get you continue using it. Messaging apps use a simple but effective trick to keep you engaged even when you’re not writing anything. Have you ever noticed that in some apps, three dots (…) appear to let you know your friend is typing a reply This trick is designed specifically to create your expectation or curiosity. You wonder what your friend is going to say. Well, you’ll have to keep waiting and see. While using social media apps is certainly fun, becoming addicteddefinitely isn’t. Now that you know some tricks used by these apps’ designers, you’ll be better equipped to reduce their influence and keep a healthier relationship with your phone.8．What does the underlined word “reveal” in Paragraph 1 probably meanA. Encourage.B. Predict.C. Prevent.D. Show.9．What is special about an app using streaksA. Ongoing pings will inform you of new posts.B. Competitive games will greatly discourage you.C. Everyday use of the app might earn you a medal.D. Appearance of three dots might disturb your typing. 10．There are “clever techniques” mentioned in the passage.A. twoB. threeC. fourD. five11．What is the best title for the textA. The Tricks That Keep You Glued to Your Phone.B. Can People Break Their Addition to GamesC. Could Technology Further Improve PhonesD. The Social Media Apps That Waste Your Time.For more than 140 years, fishers in Laguna, Brazil have formed an unusual partnership with local dolphins. As soon as the fishers spot a dolphin waving its tail, lifting its head, and diving deeply, they race into the water with their nets. Now, a new study suggests thedolphins are willing partners in this cooperation and that the animals may be guiding the people. They pay close attention to the humans, timing their actions to maximize their catch. Over the years, dolphins have bee n showing the fishers “where to stand and when to get ready to throw their nets” in the dark waters. It’s almost as if the dolphins are training the humans.As much as the fishers were watching the dolphins, the dolphins were also watching the fishers, the study found. Both species must time their actions correctly to catch fish. The people wait with their nets at the ready for a dolphin to approach closely. When a dolphin sees a ready fisher, the animal will give a tip, usually that deep dive, which tells the fisher the mullet (鲻鱼) are right there and it’s time to cast their net. Sometimes, either dolphin or fisher will respond incorrectly, and neither catches fish. Yet, the scientists reported that of nearly 3,000 recorded fishing attempts, nearly 46% were successful. To ensure this accuracy, fishers must understand the dolphins’ tips, learning them over time. Even it can say, “The dolphins are almost like teachers.”Other populations of dolphins have also been known to cooperate with human fishers, rushing fish toward shore or into nets off eastern Australia, Mauritania, and Southeast Asia. But these practices have either disappeared or are in decline.The same fate likely faces the Laguna dolphins if the mullet numbers, which have dropped over the past decade because of overfishing, continue to decline. The practice may escape such a fate, if Brazil regards this dolphin-fisher relationship a cultural heritage, as the scientists propose. “Without mullet,” the expert says, “this partnership will end.”12．How do the dolphins guide the fishers to catch the fishA. They constantly attack fish.B. They use body languages.C. They make strange voices.D. They pull the nets.13．What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 3A. Introduce a new topic for discussion.B. Provide suggestions for the readers.C. Share some interesting facts about dolphins.D. Conclude the previous paragraphs.14．What can we learn about the dolphin-fisher relationship in LagunaA. It has completely disappeared.B. It develops friendly.C. It needs to be protected.D. It becomes useless and meaningless. 15．In which column of the newspaper can we read the passageA. Art.B. Health.C. Sports.D. Animals.二、七选五16．Do you know how to be a proud traveller ①_________Travellers get excited and a bit nervous before travel.

They had a chance to enjoy themselves in the amazing Chinese cultural experiences there.At the Confucius Institute of the University of Malta on Saturday, the students from the Official School of Languages were attracted by traditional Chinese flute (长笛) performances, and Chinese tea making. Each of them was photographed trying on Hanfu, a form of traditional Chinese clothing. Despite their age differences, they all proved their dexterity (灵巧) at traditional Chinese works such as paper-cutting and knot-weaving. Maria Nieves, a group member, expressed her strong interest in Chinese culture, after two years of learning the language. “Despite the challenges, Chinese characters are truly beautiful,” she says.On Sunday, the group visited the Mediterranean Regional Center for Traditional Chinese Medicine in Paola, Malta. Under the guidance of a doctor, they practiced Ba Duan Jin, a set of exercises whose name translates as “eight steps to healthy living”. A lecture on TCM introduced them to treatments like acupuncture (针灸) and cupping, and some of the students had the chance to personally experience a treatment. Feng Hua, leader of the Chinese medical team, says that the TCM center is planning to host more students, who are interested in TCM and Chinese culture to take part in cultural exchange, and learn more about Chinese medical practice.During their visit to the China Cultural Center in Valletta on Monday, the students were drawn to the traditional Chinese lanterns hanging in front of the entrance, and also to the beautiful tea sets in the main hall.

It is not just its famous festivals in the summer but its Christmas and Hogmanay (除夕) celebrations, which fill the city with tourists from all over the world. Along with the tourists, Edinburgh has lots of students. They bring energy and variety to the culture of the city. Although this can be overwhelming (令人不知所措) at times, if you open your arms to the good that it brings you can get so much out of the city.The Cycling Gardeners are a part of the local community. By being totally dependent on bikes for transport, we are limited to working within the city centre. We have made life a bit easier on ourselves by using electric bikes, and we often beat cars in traffic and have no problem finding place to park.We have a great collective team spirit which is very important. Whenever you go there from May to September, you will likely meet both sunshine and rain. But the wet weather can be dealt with by helping each other out, spending time in the many local cafes, catching up with your friends and having a good discussion about the rain!Without doubt my favourite place in Edinburgh is the Meadows Park. I was born in the hospital overlooking it and grew up in buildings around it. Much of my childhood days were spent there. I met my wife there and it is where I take my young son to play. I have the happiest memories of building snowmen when the snow comes down. I reallyhope that this winter brings good snow so I can review my own childhood with my son!8. What does Edinburgh attract visitors most?A. Its successful industry.B. Its famous festivals.C. Its rainy seasons.D. Its beautiful view.9. Compared with driving cars, what’s the advantages of riding electric bikes for Cycling Gardeners?A. Speed.B. Comfort.C. Convenience.D. Expense.10 What does the underlined phrase “catching up” in paragraph 4 mean?A. Getting up.B. Meeting up.C. Showing up.D. Picking up.11. Why is the Meadows Park the author’s favorite place in Edinburgh?A. He has good memories there.B. He was born there.C. He played with his young son there.D. He met his wife there.DRoadkill is a worldwide problem. Every year: About 340 million birds are killed on roads in the United States; around 9 million mammals (哺乳动物) of average size are killed on Brazilian roads; and China is no exception.To deal with this, a study of “roadkill” has been conducted by Professor Li Zhongqiu and his team from Nanjing University. The study was conducted in Nanjing, which has more than 9,700 km of well-built roads. Li and his teammates ran 26 roadkill monitoring (监测) activities over 224.27 km of roads, totaling 5,831 km during the research period. The nine roads chosen for the team’s research were monitored every two weeks over the course of a year.The team recorded a total of 293 dead bodies. Among them, birds made up nearly half the total. As a main bird species in East China, blackbirds are usually attracted by flies or other insects to dead bodies of roadkill along the roads. “Specifically, cats, dogs and blackbirds were the three most commonly killed animals,” Li said. “This may be due to the large number of homeless cats and dogs in city areas. Pets thrown out of their homes are more likely to run into traffic.”According to the report, roadkill happened a lot from May to September. The animal’ increased reproductive (生殖) activity in summer and autumn is a possible reason. Besides, roadkill issues also topped in November and January. This may be due to the need to search for food during winter when food resources are few, Li said.“There is no doubt that roadkill has contributed to the decrease of animal populations and must be taken seriously,” Li said. “We call on related departments to take measures such as speed limits and necessary trafficcontrols during top periods of animal activities. For animals such as cats and dogs that usually use the roads, fences can prevent them from entering traffic.”12. What is paragraph 1 of the text mainly about?A. The purpose of the study.B. The method of the study.C. The result of the study.D. The background of the study.13. How often were the chosen roads monitored during a research year?A. Once every two weeks.B. Once a week.C. Three times every two weeks.D. Twice a week.14. What is the possible reason why roadkill accidents happen the most in November and January?A. Large animal birth rate.B. Busier traffic.C. Few traffic controls.D. Animals’ demand for food.15. What can policymakers do to reduce cat roadkill incidents according to Professor Li?A. Having speed limits.B. Taking traffic controls.C. Building fences.D. Setting warning signs.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分)阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

When he got his yearbook(学校年刊), he went up to people and asked them to sign his yearbook but most of them refused. He collected only two or three names from classmates and two notes from his teachers. So. Brody wrote a yearbook note to himself, "Hope you make some more friends."Reading that note broke his mother's heart. She took a photo of the note and posted it to a Facebook group for parents at the school. The post made its way to three high schoolers: Simone Lightfoot, Logan South and Joanna Cooper. They spent hours discussing the problem and finding ways to help. “It's so fun to have everyone sign the yearbook, but for this kid few people have signed their names in his yearbook. It's just heartbreaking,” Lightfoot said. They all started planning that the next day they were going to sign this kid's yearbook.The three rounded up as many students as possible to sign Brody s yearbook even though none of them had ever met the three high schoolers. According to the teens, people were lining up to fill the blanks in Brody’s book Many of the more than 100 signatures included paragraphs with words of encouragement, advice and even phone numbers. And then right after that, everyone in the class started signing Brody's yearbook.The teens said they hope the small friendly act can encourage other kids to be kind. "It makes me feel better now. I don't know how to explain it. It makes me feel better from the bottom of my heart," Brody said "It makes me feel like there's hope for the school, there's hope for humanity and there're a lot of good kids in this world," his mother said.4、Why did Brody write "Hope you make some more friends." in his yearbook?A.

In the US alone, the number of monarch butterflies (黑脉金斑蝶) has seen a drop of 80%, from scientists recording millions of them in the 1980s, and only 29,000 in 2020. It’s part of a wider possibility across the insect group. In 2017, scientists in Germany raised alarm bells after finding that insects had fallen by more than 70% in 30 years.For farmers, monarch butterflies pollinate (授粉) a very large percentage of food crops. It is very important t protect them because their disappearance could have a huge economic influence. Butterflies are also helpful in the coal mine for other insects, as it is easier for them to feel the environmental change. and relatively easy to record.Leading environmental organizations have been working hard to find new ways of recording the number of butterflies. As of now, there is no long-term data to develop good protection methods. The scientists wanted to address the challenge that long term recording programs worldwide have faced: they are focusing on training locals as insect experts, which requires much money. They came up with a new method to the problem. In Yasuni National Park, they hired park rangers (护林员) who were trained and then carried out recording. The rangers were able to recognize butterflies with an 85% success rate, which is important for these kinds of recording programs to be successful.Compared with other recording projects, this study represents a long-term solution. “Our method increases the chance of recording in the long term by reducing the money spent on it such as wages,” said lead author Maria Checa. “Furthermore, it also offers opportunities for public organizations to achieve their environmental goals.”8、How does the author develop the first paragraph?A. By telling a story.B. By listing numbers.C. By showing possible results.D. By discussing different reasons.9、How are butterflies different from other insects in feeling the environmental change?A. They are quicker.B. They are lazier.C. They are slower.D. They are more inactive.10、What does the underlined word “address” in paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Discover.B. Solve.C. Invent.D. Balance.11、What’s Maria Checa’s attitude towards the new method?A. Uncaring.B. Disapproving.C. Positive.D. Doubtful.Charles Darwin's notebooks were first reported missing to the public in 2020. An anonymous(匿名的) person has returned Darwin's two notebooks to the Cambridge University Library. The notebooks, which include Darwin's l837 Tree of Life introduction, were returned to the library last month in a bright pink gift bag. "My sense of relief at the notebooks' safe return is great and almost impossible to express," said librarian Dr. Jessica Gardner.The notebooks had been missing for long, while librarians had supposed they had just been misplaced. The library plans to put the notebooks on show in July as part of a coming exhibition(展览) called "Darwin in Conversation". The Tree of Life is said to show Darwin's thinking before he completed On the Origin of Species. "Objects like these help with our understanding of the history of humans," said Stephen Toope, a professor at Cambridge.The library said the notebooks were first removed in 2000 from the Special Collections Strong Rooms, home to the rarest and most valuable things. A usual check in January 2001 found that the small box having the notebooks was not returned to its right place. After a number of searches throughout the library over the years, the notebooks were not found. Gardner arranged a more careful search in 2020, led by experts who conducted fingertip examinations. The team searched the whole Darwin Archive, which includes more than 180 boxes. After these efforts failed, they had the result that the notebooks had been stolen.Local police are pleased that the notebooks have finally been found. "We share the university's delight that these priceless notebooks are now back where they belong," a Cambridge police spokesman said. "Our investigation remains open and we are following up some lines of questions."12、When was the two notebooks' loss first reported to the public?A. In 1837.B. In 2000.C.In 2001.D. In 2020.13、What can be learned about the notebooks from paragraph 2?A. A librarian misplaced them.B. They were lost at an exhibition.C.The library did nothing to get them back.D. They were important for us to understand the human history.14、What will the local police do in the following days?A. Dig out more valuable things.B. Find more information about the notebooks.C. Open a right place for the notebooks.D. Celebrate the return of the notebooks further.15、Which is the best title for the text?A. Darwin's Notebooks Are Finally ReturnedB. Darwin's Notebooks Are Missing for YearsC. Two Important Notebooks Will Be Found SoonD. Efforts for Darwin's Notebooks Have Been Made二、七选五16、Being positive doesn’t mean only having happy thoughts all the time.

It was this love that led him to establish India’s first shelter home for dogs living with disabilities.It all started in 1998. While taking a midnight walk, Mahendra came across a very weak dog on the street, whose bones were visible under its skin. Mahendra decided to feed it and for the next couple of days it became the centre of his life, until the night when he found it dead.After that, Mahendra started providing treatment to all wounded and sick dogs he came across. Some time later, someone told Mahendra about PFA, India’s largest animal welfare organization, chaired by Mrs Maneka Gandhi. Mahendra contacted her and she was impressed by the work he was doing. Mrs Gandhi asked him to start a PFA chapter in Ahmedbad.Thus, in 2004, he started the shelter. It took a long time for Mehendra to find the land where the shelter could be set up. Finally, Ramesh Bhai Patel, a native farmer from a village named Jundal, agreed to give his land for nothing. Along with a team of four doctors and many volunteers, the shelter now has 25 dogs that were unable to walk at all when they were brought in. Today, they’re slowly healing. Dogs that have healed with proper treatment are sent back to where they came from if the environment there is safe. However, the shelter will be home to the blind dogs for all their lives, says Mahendra.The shelter runs on money coming from Mahendra’s own pension of Rs. 45,000.There have been some financial crunches now and then, but Mahendra has made up his mind that no matter what challenge comes their way, they’ll fight through.19．What made Mahendra decide to do something for disabled and sick dogs? A．His contact with PFA．B．The encouragement of Gandhi. C．A walk with a sick dog of Gandhi. D．The death of a homeless sick dog.20．What happened to Mahendra when he tried to build the shelter?He secured government funds.He got a land from a local farmer for free.He learned medical knowledge from doctors.He met with much difficulty in finding volunteers.21．What does the underlined word “crunches” in the last paragraph probably mean?A．Advantages. B．Crisis.C．Services. D．Details.22．Which of the following words can best describe Mahendra?A．Kind-hearted. B．Humorous.C．Open-minded. D．Modest.18.（8分）C“Italians don’t get fat” is a popular saying used to describe Italian food and lifestyle. Italians are famously devoted to their great food, yet their obesity rate is really low compared with other countries.Many studies have found that an Italian diet has numerous health benefits, from reducing therisk of cancer and heart disease to living a healthier, longer life. However, something must be getting lost in translation. Many Italian foods are everything but healthy.On a recent trip to my homeland, Italy, I decided to see for myself why the Italians don't get fat. My trips tarted where my family lives, in the northern Italy, and ended 15 days later on the Amalfi coast.It quickly became very clear that the Italians know how to really enjoy the experience of eating. They socialize and relax while dining over dinner. Before and after dinner, most people in Italy walk through town, called passeggiata. People walk together, talking and keeping alive a valued tradition.Many people in Italy aren’t regardful about calories because they usually stop eating when they are full. Italians, also lead active lifestyle, with lots of bike riding or walking, mostly in urban areas. Moreover, they usually satisfy a sweet tooth with fruits instead of sweet desserts. Italians simply balance the quality and quantity of foods. People in Italy enjoy the fat, but they don't overdo it.What I personally like the most is that the kitchen secrets are passed along from generation to generation, little children can always be found in the kitchen with their moms ——learning from them.Italians learn to eat well and just enjoy something sweet on occasion. How right they are! Because when people go on diets, they usually get depressed and gain even more weight. An Italian mealtime should be a relaxed occasion enjoyed in the great company of family or friends.Cooking at home and avoiding restaurant food are some of the reasons why Italians don’t get fat. So, always choose homemade food and try to be active after eating. If you don’t have time or don’t want to leave the house, there are many healthy exercises that you can do at home. 23．What does the author say about Italian food?A．It is healthy.B．It contains high fat.C．It helps people lose weight.D．It lowers the risks of various diseases.24．Why did the author go back home?She missed her family.She wanted to have a rest.She planned to travel in her hometown.She decided to find the secret of Italian diets.25．What does the underlined word “regardful”in Paragraph 5 mean?A．Concerned.B．Satisfied.C．Doubtful.D．Frightened.26．Why do Italians never get fat?A．They seldom eat out.B．They don’t have a sweet tooth.C．They avoid taking a passeggiata.D．They don’t like to eat the fat..19.（8分）DOrganic food is very popular. It is also expensive. Some organic food costs twice as much as nonorganic food. Some parents and pet owners pay up to 200 percent more for organic food while some people think organic food is a waste of money.There is one main difference between organic and non-organic food. Organic farms do not use agricultural chemicals, such as pesticides (杀虫剂). This makes sure that the products are natural.Some people think “organic” means “locally grown”. At the beginning, this was true. Over time organic farming became more difficult. The demand for organic food grew larger than the supply. Small companies had to sell out to large companies. There weren’t enough organic materials. This made it difficult for many organic companies to stay in business. Today, many largecompanies have an organic line of products.Is organic food more nutritious ? This is part of the debate. Many farmers and consumers believe it is. They think agricultural chemicals cause health problems, such as cancer. Many health experts disagree. Few studies prove that organic food prevents health problems. Health experts worry more about bacteria (细菌). These can come into contact with organic and nonorganic food. Doctors recommend washing produce very carefully.Most people agree that naturally grown food tastes better. Is tastier food worth the extra money? This is a matter of opinion. Whether it is healthier or not may require more research. However, organic consumers argue it is better to be safe than sorry.27．What is probably the major concern of organic food consumers? A．Price. B．Safety. C．Freshness. D．Variety.28．What is the doctors’ suggestion?A．Grow your own food. B．Reduce the use of pesticides.C．Make sure the food is clean. D．Buy large companies’ products. 29．Which of the following do most people agree on organic food?A．It tastes better. B．It is easier to grow.C．It contains more fat. D．It is cheaper.30．Where does this text probably come from?A．A health magazine. B．A medical report.C．A chemistry paper. D．A menu of a restaurant.三、完形填空（本题共计1小题，总分30分）20.（30分）What is the first thing that comes to your mind when you hear the word “hero”? Is it someone who 31 a cape (披风) and can 32 inthe air? There are onscreen heroes like the superheroes in Avengers, and also 33 heroes in our lives.But what 34 a person a hero?In general, a hero is someone selfless, 35 and brave. These qualities 36 heroes to help others in times of need, even if they are 37 . Youcan count on them to be there for you 38 something bad happens.“The people that we set up as heroes are people that generally go above and39 the call of duty. They do things that are 40 ,” said Nick Ca rden,a psychologist at the AAPHC Renaissance Center in the US.However, why can some people be heroic? Nick Carden said, heroes are made. “They 41 are people that have been influenced by and have been helpedby or have been modeled or raised to have those as values .”Ordinary people — just 42 you and me — are heroes in their own way, simply just by 43 their part for their families and communities.Cleaners, doctors, journalists, delivery workers, nurses, and bus drivers-the 44 goes on and on.These ordinary people help 45 in our day-to-day lives. And, sometimes, when there are 46 , these ordinary people show courage and bravery tohelp 47 strangers in need.Being a hero is a universal attribute (属性) of human nature.

Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer.This year, about 2,300 teenagers from all over the world will spend about 10 months in US homes. At the same time about 1,300 American teenagers will go to other countries to learn new languages and learn the rest ofthe world.Here is a 2-way student exchange in action .Fred, 19, spent last year in Germany with George’s family. In turn, George’s son Mike spent a year in Fred’s home in America.Fred, a lively young man, knew little German when he arrived. But after 2 months of studying; the language became easy for him. School was pletely different from what he had expected and it was much harder. Students rose respectfully when the teacher entered the room. They took 14 subjects instead of 6 that were usually taken in the US.Family life, too, was different. The father’s word was the law. All the activities were done with the family rather than individually .Fred found the food to be too simple at first. He also missed having a car.“Back home, you pick up some friends in a car and go out to have a good time .In Germany, you walk but you soon learn to like it .”At the same time, in America, Mike, a friendly German boy, wa s also forming his own ideas. “I suppose I should criticize American schools” he says, “It is far too easy for our level but I have to say that I like it a lot In Germany, we do nothing but study. Here we take part in many other activities. I think that maybe American schools are better than in training their citizens. There ought to be some middle ground between the two.”SECTION B （10 points）Directions:Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and the required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange or red? If you do, you must be an optimist(乐观主义者), a leader or an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. Do you prefer grey and blue? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be a pessimist (悲观主义者). At least, this is what psychologists(心理学家) tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference(偏爱), as well as the effect that colors have on human beings. They tells us, among other facts, that we do not choose our favorite color as we grow up—we are born with our preference. If you happen to love brown, you did so, as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.Colors do influence(影响) our moods(情绪)－there is no doubt about it. A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one, and a red dress brings warmth and cheer(高兴) to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing（令人压抑的）. A black bridge over the Thames River, near London, used to be the scene of more suicides(自杀) than any other bridge in the area－until it was repainted green. The number of suicide attempts(企图) immediately fell sharply; perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active. It is an established(确定的) fact thatfactory workers work better, harder and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or grey.81. If someone is quiet and shy, what colors may be his or her favorite colors? (no more than 4 words)_____________________________________82. How do people start to have their color preference? (no more than 6 words)_____________________________________83. What effect does yellow have on most people? (no more than 8 words)_____________________________________84. What does the sentence “you would rather follow than lead” mean? (no more than 10 words)_____________________________________SECTION C （25 points）Directions: Write an English position according to the instructions given below in Chinese.你的家长给你买了一台电脑作为新年礼物，请根据下列信息写一篇文章给校刊投稿，谈谈电脑给你的生活带来的变化。
