Many everyday American expressions are based on colors. Red is a hot colour. Americans often use it to express heat. They may say they are red hot about something unfair. When they are red hot they are very angry about something. The small hot tasting peppers found in many Mexican foods are called red hots for their colour and their fiery taste. Fast loud music is popular with many people. They may say the music is popular with many people. They may say the music is red hot, especially the kind called Dixicland jazz.Pink is a lighter kind of red. People sometimes say theyre in the pink when theyre in good health. The expression was first used in America at the beginning of the 20th century. It probably came from many babies who were born with a nice pink colour showing good health. Blue is a cool colour. The traditional blues music in the United States is the opposite of red hot music. Blues is slow, sad and soulful. Duke Ellington and his orchestra recorded a famous song-Mood Indigoabout the deep blue colour, indigo. In the words of the song: “You arent blue till youve had that Mood Indigo.” Someone who is blue is very sad.The colour green is natural for trees and grass. But it is an unnatural colour for humans. A person who has a sick feeling in his stomach may say he feels a little green. A passenger on a boat who is feeling very sick from high waves may look very green.Sometimes a person may be upset because he does not have something as nice as his friends, like a fast new car. That person may say he is green with envy. Some people are green with envy because a friend has more dollars of greenbacks. Dollars are called greenbacks because that is the colour of the back side of the paper money. The colour black is often used in expressions. People describe a day in which everything goes wrong as a black day. The date of a major tragedy is remembered as a black day. A blacklist is illegal now.

So he thought the land must be rich in gold. He named the place Costa Rica, which means “rich coast” in Spanish.Though little gold was found, Costa Rica today is indeed rich with coffee and bananas. Coffee is the most important product in Costa Rica and most of it is exported to other countries like America and West Germany. Bananas are the countrys second most important export.Costa Ricans also grow many other crops such as fruits, corn and beans for their own use. Costa Ricans love colors and their houses are painted in bright colors. Education is very important to the Costa Ricans.

They are not. They are caused by viruses passing on from person to person. You catch a cold by ing into contact, directly or indirectly, with someone who already has one. If cold causes colds, it would be reasonable to expect the Eskimos to suffer from them forever. But they do not. And in isolated arctic regions explorers have reported being free from colds until ing into contact again with infected people from the outside world by way of packages and mails dropped from airplanes. During the First World War soldiers who spent long periods in the battlefield, cold and wet, showed no increased tendency to catch colds. In the Second World War prisoners at the notorious Auschwitz concentration camp(奥斯维辛集中营), naked and starving, were astonished to find that they seldom had colds. At the mon Cold Research Unit in England, volunteers took part in Experiments in which they gave themselves to the disforts of being cold and wet for long stretches of time. After taking hot baths, they put on bathing suits, allowed themselves to be with cold water, and then stood about dripping wet in drafty room. Some wore wet socks all day while others exercised in the rain until close to exhaustion. Not one of the volunteers came down with a cold unless a cold virus was actually dropped in his nose. If, then, cold and wet have nothing to do with catching colds, why are they more frequent in the winter? Despite the most pains-taking research, no one has yet found the answer. One explanation offered by scientists is that people tend to stay together indoors more in cold weather than at other times, and this makes it easier for cold viruses to be passed on. No one has yet found a cure for the cold. There are drugs and painkillers (止痛片) such as aspirin, but all they do is relieve the symptoms(症状). 11. The writer offered _ examples to support his argument. A. 4 B. 5 C. 6 D. 3 12.Which of the following does not agree with the chosen passage? A. The Eskimos do not suffer from colds all the time. B.

Arctic explorers may catch colds when _. A.They are working in the isolated arctic regions B.They are writing reports in terribly cold weather C.They are free from work in the isolated arctic regions D.They are ing into touch again with the outside world 14.Volunteers taking part in the experiments in the mon Cold Research Unit _. A. suffered a lot B. never caught colds C. often caught colds D. became very strong 15.The passage mainly discusses _. A. the experiments on the mon cold B. the misconception about the mon cold C. the reason and the way people catch colds D. the continued spread of mon colds第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。As we all know, friendship is of great importance in our daily life.
