    　　BELIEVE it or not, the color of the tie Barack Obama wore to the inauguration(就职典礼)is now a hotly debated topic．The level of public interest in Obama's tie might seem strange but many people believe his choice will symbolize the type of government he plans to run, as the color of a politician's tie is thought to convey ideas of power, trustworthiness and more．

    　　Polities of ties

    　　It may be the least practical item of male dress, but it is arguably the most expressive．In the UK and many other coun－tries around the world, conservative(保守的)politicians may wear a blue tie and their liberal opponents a red one．In America, the colors go the other way round．The Republicans have in recent years become associated with the color red, and the Democrats with blue．But in spite of this, Bush wears blue ties more often than any other color．

    　　What they mean

    　　According to Sharon Haver, editor of focusonstyle．com, in America the feelings associated with colors overrule their political significance．“A guy who wants to be regarded as strong and in charge would wear red,” Haver says．Unsurprisingly, the business tycoon Donald Trump is known for wearing red ties．But what about blue? According to Haver, “Blue is a softer color…Look at the sky．It's peaceful and calm and trustworthy．”

    　　Selecting the right tie for the right occasion

    　　●Perfect job interview tie

    　　Perhaps no other tie－wearing occasion is as important as the job interview．Gilchrist, the fashion expert, advises playing it safe and choosing a conservative one．Best choices are solids, stripes or small patterns．An excellent color is burgundy(深红色)or another serious color．Avoid pink or yellow, which suggests that the wearer lacks gravity．

    　　Pattern ties, Gilchrist suggests, should be limited to a maximum of three colors．A striped tie is a safe choice as this is acceptable to everyone．Last, Gilchrist recommends saving the expensive “hip” tie for those applying for glamorous creative jobs．

    　　●Date－night tie

    　　When picking out the right tie for taking a girl out on a date, spend more time considering color than pattern．According to studies, women are attracted to men wearing the color blue, because blue gives the image of a “stable, faithful, constant, always there” person．So what is the worst color to wear on a date? “Flattened caterpillar(毛虫)yellow－green,” according to Gilchrist, “it will repel both sexes equally．”

    (1)

    Why are people interested in the tie that Obama wore to the inauguration?

    [　　]

    A．

    Because they think the tie he wore will enable them to know about his personalities and policies．

    B．

    Because they want to advise him how to select an appropriate tie for such a big occasion．

    C．

    Because they think the tie will tell if he is trustworthy as they expected when he assumes office．

    D．

    Because they believe the tie is an essential part of dressing to a mature politician like Obama．

    (2)

    What can we infer about Bush, the former president, from the passage?

    [　　]

    A．

    He was probably liberal in his policies when he was in power．

    B．

    He was a Republican when he served as president．

    C．

    He wore only blue ties and had no ties of alternative colors．

    D．

    He wanted to make himself unique by the tie that he wore．

    (3)

    The example of “the business tycoon Donald Trump” is given to ________．

    [　　]

    A．

    prove that color reflects people's feelings to a certain degree

    B．

    show that Donald is so wealthy that he can afford expensive ties

    C．

    tell that Donald is physically strong and can handle everything

    D．

    explain that red is a popular color, especially with businessmen

    (4)

    Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?

    [　　]

    A．

    Ties can be ignored by politicians since they are the least practical item of male dress．

    B．

    Do choose ties carefully before dating, because it is the most important occasion．

    C．

    Why to avoid pink or yellow ties in job interviews is that they don't match the atmosphere．

    D．

    The more colorful the tie is, the more likely you'll get the job you want．

    Americans think that travel is good for you. Some even think it can help to solve one of the coun??try ’ s worst problems ~: crime (犯罪）.

    Crime worries a lot of people. Every year, the number of crimes is up and up. And many criminals (罪犯）are young. They often come from sad homes, with only one parent or no parents at all.

    There are many young criminals in prison，but prison doesn ’ t change them. Six or seven in ten will go back to crime when they come out of prison.

    One man ,Bob Burton, thought of a new idea. In the old days, young men had to live a difficult life on the road. They learned to be strong and brave, and to help their friends to be strong and brave, and to help their friends in time of danger. This helped them grow into men. So Bob Burton started “Vision Quest. “ He takes young criminals on a long ,long journey with horses and wagons (马车）， 3,000 miles through seven states. They are on the road for more than a year.

    The young people in Vision Quest all have bad problems. Most of them have already spent time in prison. This is their last chance.

    It's hard work on the road. The day starts before the sun comes up. The boys and girls have to feed the horses. Some of them have never loved anyone before  but they love their horses. That love can help them to live a new life.

    Not all the young people on Vision Quest will leave crime behind them. Three or four in ten will one day be in prison again. Bob Burton is right. Travel can be good for you. Even today, Americans still say, “ Go west, young men. ”

    In the last paragraph “leave crime behind them" means    .

    A. no longer do a crime B. leave people who do a crime

    C. don't do all the crimes       D. leave criminals behind

    Why is Bob Burton right?

    A .Because he can help to solve crime.

    B .Because three or four is better than six or seven.

    C .Because the young criminals have a hard life on the road.

    D .Because he can stop crime in the country.

    Form the passage we may infer that   .

    A .getting up before the sun rises can help out of crime

    B .we can hardly find a person who has no love for anybody or anything

    C .travelling can help all criminals out of prison

    D .young people can do anything freely

         On “ Vision Quest"   .

    A. young people have bad problems

    B .young people grow tall very fast

    C .young people often help their friends in time of danger

    D .all of the above

    Americans still say, "Go west, young men. ”because .

    A .if they go west they can have a travel

    B .in the west there is a prison

    C .there they have to live a hard life to grow into men

    D .prison doesn't change them

    阅读理解。
    阅读下面的短文，请根据短文后的要求答题。（请注意问题后的字数要求）
         [1] Doctors may soon have some suggestions for health that even kids will like: more playtime. European
    and international health experts say a new study makes the most convincing case for the benefits of children
    being active. They say the research may lead to new guidelines saying youngsters aged between 5 and 16 need
    to be active up to 1.5 hours a day.
         [2] Experts said the study doesn't mean children need to be on treadmills (跑步机) or in a soccer
    leagues-they just need to be able to run around and play physically, even for short bursts of time.
         [3] The study looked at 1,732 9-year-olds and 15-year-olds from Denmark, Estonia and Portugal. Physical
    activity was observed for four continuous days. Despite differences among the three coun- tries where children were observed, the benefits of physical activity were the same.
         [4] About 40 percent of those observed were reasonably ac- tive, while the rest were sedentary, researchers said. The study found that the benefits of physical activity applied to all children- not just to obese ( 肥胖的)
    children normally thought to be at a higher risk.
         [5] While much attention has been paid to children's bad eat- ing habits,this study calls for equal weight to
    be placed on activity levels.
         [6] "We don't need to be getting kids running on treadmills in the gym." said Cavil."We need to encourage
    kids to play." One of the study's key findings, he explained, is that it proves the benefit of short bursts of activity, rather than a need for continuous exercises.
         [7] But _____ perhaps the greatest factor in children's physical activ- ity will be the parents themselves."It's
    not just that children should be more active,it's the whole family," said Weiss."Parents should be role models."
    1. What idea can we get from the researchers' finding in the pas- sage?( No more than 15words)
    ________________________________________________________________________________________
    2. What do you think parents should do to help their kids?( No more than 15 words)
    ________________________________________________________________________________________
    3. What do the children need to do to follow the doctors' sugges- tion?( No more than 15 words)
    ________________________________________________________________________________________
    4. Please explain the underlined word in English.( Only one word)
    ________________________________________________________________________________________
    5. Translate the underlined sentence in the last paragraph into Chinese.
    ________________________________________________________________________________________
