1．阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。

D
Friendship can help you stick to your aims and make you more successful, according to an article in Times.
Carlin Flora, the writer, who has studied friendship for years, finds that if you really want to change something in your life, you can develop friendship with people who have the same aims as you do.
Friends can help make your own will stronger. Following good examples can help you get rid of bad behaviors and form new, healthier ones. For example, after a busy and tiring day, you probably want to go home and watch TV. However, your friend knocks on your door and asks you to go jogging with him. After jogging, you talk over coffee together. This is much better than just sitting in the room watching TV.
Flora also points out that it's best to stop bad habits by turning attention to different, good ones. Instead of staying at home alone and spending hours in front of your computer, building up friendship with those who have the values and habits you admire will lift you up more easily.
We all wish to be with, and be liked by our friends. When you have friendship with people with strong wills and good behaviors, you will not only succeed more easily, but also find joy on your journey.

Once there was a little stream （小溪）. It flowed down from a high mountain and travelled through many villages and forests. At last it reached a desert. “I went through so many difficulties.
I should have no problem crossing the desert, she thought. As she started, she found herself slowly disappearing into the sand. After many tries, she still failed. “Maybe I can't reach the ocean,” she said sadly to herself.
At this time, a deep voice said, “If a breeze （微风）can cross the desert, so can a stream.” It was the voice of the desert. But the little stream answered, “That's because a breeze can fly, but I cannot.”
“That's because you can’t give up what you are. Let yourself evaporate （蒸发）into the breeze, and it can take you across,” said the desert. “Give up what I am now? No! No!” The little stream could not accept this idea. “The breeze can carry the vapor （蒸汽） across the desert and let it leave as rain. The min will form a river again,” said the desert. “And whether you're a river or vapor, your nature ne ver changes.” Hearing this, the little stream went into the open arms of the breeze. It carried her to the next stage of her life.

She quickly filled a bag with a few pieces of clothing, her diary, and her treasure—a beautiful silk scarf. Kathy and her best friend, Monica, had asked their parents to buy them matching scarves. They each would wear the scarves as a symbol of their friendship. Kathy had no idea that she was going to America that night and would not be returning.
Kathy kept that special silk scarf for many years. One day she decided to give it to her granddaughter, Eliza, to wear to her first job interview for good luck. Kathy was afraid that Eliza would lose the scarf, but the granddaughter promised, "Don't worry, Grandma, nothing's going to happen to your scarf. You'll see. It is going to bring both of us luck today, "And with that, Eliza kissed her grandmother and left for the interview.

What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, or red? If you do, you must be an active person who enjoys life. Do you like blue? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and would rather follow than lead.
Colors do influence our moods（情绪）. 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 to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing（令人压抑的）. There was a black bridge over the Thames River, near London. The number of people who killed themselves on that bridge used to be larger than on any other bridge in the area-until it was repainted green.
Light and bright colors make people not only happier but also more active. In the factory, the workers will work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black.
（1）An active person may like __________.
A. yellow, orange, or red
B. yellow, black, or red
C. orange, blue, or black

B. Because the bridge was too long.
C. Because people didn't like the bridge.
D. Because the color of the bridge was depressing.

10．阅读理解
There are many colours in nature. But do you think that colour has weight? I think you'll say "No". But I'm afraid you are wrong. If you don't believe it, you may do a small experiment（实验）.
First, put two objects with the same weight into two boxes. Then cover the boxes.
Then, rap（包裹）one box with a red piece of paper, the other one with a white piece of paper. OK. Now hold the boxes with your hand one by one. It is certain that you will think the red one is a little heavier.
Why do you think so? A scientist found that different colours have different weights in man's mind. That is to say, every colour has its own weight in our mind.
The scientist told us that colours also have smell. Can you smell the colour? Of course not. Then why did the scientist say so. That is because every colour stands for（代表） a kind of light with a certain wavelength（波长）. It reaches our brain through sense organs.
According to this discovery, scientists say that people accept the colours-they like, and refuse the colours they hate. So your body and mind will be healthy by using the colours you like. Or you'll be nervous or even get ill. For example, you 'like blue and hate red. If you stay in a room with red windows, wallpaper and furniture（家具）for two hours, you'll feel you have been there for four hours, you'll fed you have been there for four hours. But if the room is blue, you'I1 feel you have been there for only an hour. And, if a person walks out of a blue room and into a red room, his temperature will rise.
That means our body temperature will change with different colours.
