Australian colour consultant(顧問)Kylie Bartnicki is talking with a group of women in Pudong, Shanghai, who are interested in how colours affect people's confidence and help form(形成)people's first impressions(印象).
Kylie traces(追溯)back her interest in colours to when she went for her first job interview at age 18. "My mother bought me a new red top to wear to my interview and she said, "Wear this, and it will be lucky."' Kylie recalls. "I wore it, had a great interview and got the job. Ever since then I started thinking about how powerful the colour is, how it makes us look and how it makes us feel."
"When we wear clothes in a good colour, the colour will make our skin, hair and eyes shine and we look happy and smart," Kylie says.
Winter and summer are "cool colourings" and autumn and spring are "warm colourings". Someone who loves "cool colouring" might have red or golden hair, brown eyes and gold or yellow skin.
Chinese women belong to the "autumn season" if they have darker, peachy skin. Chinese women belong to the "winter season" if they have pale skin. Kylie says that Chinese women who have dark eyes and dark hair will look best in deep, rich colours. Light pinks and blues should be  avoided because they may wash our Chinese skin tones(膚色).
Their talk usually lasts one and a half to two hours and costs 600 yuan (89 dollars). Kylie says her customers(客戶) are as young as five years old and as old as 90. The customers between their 30s and 50s always want some fresh ideas on developing their own personal style.
小題1:Chinese women who have dark eyes and dark hair won't look beautiful in_______.
A.purpleB.redC.deep greenD.light blue
小題2:A mother and her daughter need to pay___ to get the advice from Kylie for their 2-hour talk.
A.$89B.$120 C.$178D.$600
小題3:Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A.Wearing clothes in a good colour will make us look happy.
B.When Kylie was 18, she started to be interested in colours.
C.Kylie's customers are in between their 30s and 50s.
D.Autumn and spring are "warm clourings".

小題1:D
小題2:A
小題3:C

試題分析:這篇文章主要講述了顏色對(duì)人的影響。顏色顧問Kylie認(rèn)為顏色對(duì)人的影響很大,例如紅顏色的衣服幫助她通過面試;而不同膚色的人也適應(yīng)不同的顏色。在她的顧客里,各種年齡的人都有。
小題1:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中第五段Kylie says that Chinese women who have dark eyes and dark hair will look best in deep, rich colours. Light pinks and blues should be avoided because they may wash our Chinese skin tones可知,要避免淺粉色和淺藍(lán)色,因?yàn)樗鼈兪刮覀兊哪w色“褪色”。故選D。
小題2:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中最后一段Their talk usually lasts one and a half to two hours and costs 600 yuan (89 dollars)他們的談話持續(xù)一個(gè)半到兩個(gè)小時(shí),花費(fèi)600元,即89美元;故選A。
小題3:判斷推理題。根據(jù)文中最后一段Kylie says her customers(客戶) are as young as five years old and as old as 90. Kylie說她的客戶年輕的只有5歲,年老的有90歲;故C錯(cuò)誤。

Will it matter if you don’t take your breakfast? A short time ago, a test was given in the United States. People of different ages, from 12 to 83, were asked to have a test. During the test, these people were given all kinds of breakfasts, and sometimes they got no breakfast at all. Scientists wanted to see how well their bodies worked when they had eaten different kinds of breakfasts.
The results show that if a person eats a right breakfast, he or she will work better than if he or she has no breakfast. If a student has fruit, egg, bread and milk before going to school, he will learn more quickly and listen more carefully.
The result is opposite to what some people think. Having no breakfast will not help you lose weight. This is because people become so hungry at noon that they eat too much for lunch. They will gain weight(增加體重) instead of losing it. You will lose more weight if you reduce your other meals.
小題1:During the test, the people were given ________.
A.no breakfast at all
B.different foods or nothing
C.very rich breakfast
D.little food for breakfast
小題2:The results show that ___________.

小題3:According to the passage, some people think that if you don’t have breakfast you will _____________.
A.be healthierB.work betterC.lose weightD.lose your way

A lot of people are crazy doing shopping through the Internet now. Why is it so popular? There are some reasons. First, more and more people have their own computers and their computers can be joined with the Internet. So it is possible for many of them to do shopping through the Internet. Second, shopping through the Internet can save them some money and a lot of time. Third, they don't need to go to the shop themselves. Because of these good facts, few people refuse it.
On the other hand, some people don' t like this new way of shopping. They are worried about the safety of shopping online. Customers(顧客) can only see the pictures of productions (商品) on the Internet. And they can' t enjoy the pleasure of buying things in large supermarkets or some wonderful stores. These are the reasons why they do not like it.
But I think more and more people will like this new kind of shopping in the future.
小題1:Many people are interested in shopping online.
小題2:Shopping on line can only save money.
小題3:All the productions on the Internet are good.
小題4:Some people dislike shopping online because they don' t have their own computers.
小題5:The writer of the passage supports (支持) shopping on line.
