    There are many colors in nature. But do you know if a color has weight? I think you’ll say “no”. But I am afraid you are wrong. If you don’t believe, you may do a small experiment.
    　　First, put two objects with the same weight into two boxes. Then cover the box. Third, wrap one box with a red piece of paper, the other 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 colors have different weight in a man’s mind. So he did man tests and at last he got the result. That is to say, every color has its own weight in our mind and their order is the same. The heaviest color is red, then blue, green, orange, yellow and white.
    　　The scientist told us that colors also have smell. Can you smell the color? Of course not. Then why did the scientist say so? That is because every color stands for a kind of light with a certain wavelength. It reaches our brain through sense organs (感觉器官).
    According to this discovery, scientists say that people accept the colors they like, and refuse the colors they hate. So your body and mind will be healthy by using the colors you like. Or you’ll be nervous or even get ill. For example, if you stay in a room with red windows, wallpapers and furniture for two hours, you’ll feel you have been there for four hours. But if the room is blue, you’ll feel you have been there for only an hour. Another example, if a person walks out of a red room and into a blue room, his temperature will fall. That means our body temperature will change with different colors

    1. 1.

      The purpose of the second paragraph is to tell us ___________

      1. A.
        a red box is heavier than a white one
      2. B.
        a color has weight in one’s mind
      3. C.
        white paper is lighter than red paper
      4. D.
        you can know the weight of a color by holding it
    2. 2.

      Why did the scientist say colors have smell?

      1. A.
        Because people can sense the light from colors
      2. B.
        Because we can smell colors with our nose
      3. C.
        Because every color has its own sweet smell
      4. D.
        Because every color can give off light of the same length
    3. 3.

      If a person walks from a blue room to a red room, his body temperature will ___________

      1. A.
        rise
      2. B.
        fall
      3. C.
        stay the same
      4. D.
        change now and then
    4. 4.

      It can be implied from the text that ___________

      1. A.
        colors have orders in weight
      2. B.
        colors can change the weight of an object
      3. C.
        people would stay longer in a room with red windows
      4. D.
        colors can affect our mood and health
    5. 5.

    Boys’ schools are the perfect place to teach young men to express their emotions and involve them in activities such as art, dance and music.
    Far from the traditional image of a culture of aggressive masculinity (男子气概), the absence of girls gives boys the chance to develop without pressure to be consistent to a stereotype, a US study says.Boys at single-sex schools were said to be more likely to get involved in cultural and artistic activities that helped develop their abilities to express their emotions, rather than feeling they had to obey to the “boy code” of hiding their emotions to be a “real man”.
    The findings of the study are against the received wisdom that boys do better when taught alongside girls.
    Tony Little, headmaster of Eton, warned that boys were being ignored by the British education system because it had become too focused on girls. He criticized teachers for failing to recognize that boys are actually more emotional than girls.
    The research argued that boys often perform badly in mixed schools because they become discouraged when their female peers do better earlier in speaking and reading skills.
    But in single-sex schools teachers can adjust lessons to boys’learning style, letting them move around the classroom and getting them to compete in teams to prevent boredom, wrote the study’s author, Abigail James of the University of Virginia.
    Teachers could encourage boys to enjoy reading and writing with “boy-focused” approaches such as themes and characters that appeal to them. Because boys generally have sharper vision, learn best through touch, and are physically more active, they need to be given “hands-on” lessons where they are allowed to walk around. “Boys in mixed schools view classical music as feminine (女性的) and prefer the modern type in which violence and sexism are major themes,” James wrote.
    Single-sex education also made it less likely that boys would feel they had to give in to a stereotype that men should be “masterful and in charge” in relationships. “In mixed schools boys feel pressed to act like men before they understand themselves well enough to know what that means,” the study reported

    1. 1.

      The author believes that a single-sex school would ____

      1. A.
        force boys to hide their emotions to be “real men”
      2. B.
        help to form masculine aggressiveness in boys
      3. C.
        encourage boys to express their emotions more freely
      4. D.
        naturally place emphasis on the traditional image of a man to boys
    2. 2.

      It is commonly believed that in a mixed school boys _____

      1. A.
        perform relatively better
      2. B.
        grow up more healthily
      3. C.
        behave more responsibly
      4. D.
        receive a better education
    3. 3.

      What does Tony Little say about the British education system?

      1. A.
        It fails more boys than girls academically
      2. B.
        It focuses more on mixed school education
      3. C.
        It fails to give boys the attention they need
      4. D.
        It places more pressure on boys than on girls
    4. 4.

      According to Abigail James, one of the advantages of single-sex schools is _____

      1. A.
        teaching can be adapted to suit the characteristics of boys
      2. B.
        boys can focus on their lessons without being absent-minded
      3. C.
        boys can choose to learn whatever they are interested in
      4. D.
        teaching can be designed to promote boys’ team spirit
    5. 5.

      Which of the following is the characteristic of boys according to Abigail James’ report?

      1. A.
        They enjoy being in charge
      2. B.
        They act the same to stereotypes
      3. C.
        They have sharper vision

    It had been a difficult move. I’d left my family and friends in Indiana, the beloved state where I’d lived most of my life. My new home in Florida was thousands of miles away from anything I knew. It was hot—all the time. Jobs were hard to come by, but I was up for almost any challenge.
    At last, I taught in a special school where students have severe learning and behavioral difficulties.
    Another teacher and I had spent weeks teaching the children appropriate behavior for public outings. Unexpectedly, only a few students, including Kyle, had not earned the privilege of going. He was determined to make his disappointment known.
    In the corridor(走廊) between classrooms, he began screaming, cursing, spitting, and swinging at anything within striking distance. Once his outburst died down, he did what he’d done when he was angry at all his other schools, at home, even once at a juvenile detention(拘留)center. He ran.
    People watched in disbelief as Kyle dashed straight into the heavy morning traffic in front of the school.
    I heard someone shout, “Call the police!”
    But I ran after him.
    Kyle was at least a foot taller than me. And he was fast. His older brothers were track stars at the nearby high school. But I could run long distances without tiring. I would at least be able to keep him in my sight and know he was alive.
    After several blocks of running directly into oncoming traffic, Kyle slowed his pace.
    He took a sharp left. Standing next to a trash bin, Kyle bent over with his hands on his knees. I must have looked ridiculous. But his was not a look of fear. I saw his body relax. He did not attempt to run again. Kyle stood still and watched me approach. I had no idea what I was going to say or do, but I kept walking closer.
    He opened his mouth to speak when a police car pulled up, abruptly filling the space between Kyle and me. The school principal and an officer got out. They spoke calmly to Kyle, who willingly climbed into the back of the vehicle. I couldn’t hear what was said, but I didn’t take my eyes off Kyle’s face, even as they drove away.
    I couldn’t help but feel that I had failed him, that I should have done or said more, that I should have fixed the situation.
    I shared my feelings with a speech therapist who was familiar with Kyle’s history. “No one ever ran after him before, Rachel,” she said. “No one. They just let him go.”
    Things changed the day he ran and I ran after him, even though I didn’t have the right words, even though I wasn’t able to save him from the mess he was in. It was the day I didn’t throw my hands in the air and decide he was too fast, a waste of time and effort , a lost cause. It was the day my mere presence was enough to make a profound difference

    1. 1.
