    【题目】阅读理解
    Nervous suspects locked up in Britain's newest police station may feel relieved by a pleasant yellow color on the door . If they are close to confessing（供认）a crime , the blue on the wall might tip the balance .
    Gwent Police have abandoned colors such as greys and browns of the 20th-century police cell（牢房）and have used color psychology to decorate them .
    Ystrad Mynach station , which recently opened at a cost of ￡5 million has four cells with glass doors for prisoners who suffer from claustrophobia（幽闭恐怖症）. Designers have painted the frames yellow , which researchers say is a calming color . Other cells contain a royal blue line because psychologists believe that the color is likely to encourage truthfulness .
    The station has 31 cells , including 12 with a “live scan” system for drunken or disturbed prisoners , which detects the rise and fall of their chest . An alarm alerts officers if a prisoner's breathing stops and carries on ringing until the door is opened .
    Designers and psychologists have worked for years on color . Blue is said to suggest trust , efficiency , duty , logic , coolness , thinking and calm . It also suggests coldness and unfriendliness . It is thought that strong blues will stimulate clear thought and lighter , soft colors will calm the mind and aid concentration .
    Yellow is linked with confidence , self-respect and friendliness get the color wrong and it could cause fear , depression and anxiety , but the right yellow can lift spirits and self-respect .
    Ingrid Collins , a psychologist who specializes in the effects of color , said that color was an “ energy force ” . She said : “ Blue does enhance communication but I am not sure it would enhance truthful communication . ”
    Yellow , she said , affected the mind . Red , on the other hand , should never be considered because it could increase aggression . Mrs. Collins praised the designers for using colors in the cells . Gwent is not the first British force to experiment with color to calm down or persuade prisoners to co-operate , In the 1990s Strathclyde Police used pink in cells based on research carried out by the US Navy .
    （1）The expression “ tip the balance ” in Paragraph 1 probably indicates that the blue might __________ .
    A.let suspects keep their balance
    B.help suspects to confess their crimes
    C.make suspects cold and unfriendly in law court
    D.enable suspects to change their attitudes to colors
    （2）Which of the following helps alert officers if someone stops breathing ?
    A.Scanning equipment .
    B.Royal blue lines .
    C.Glass doors .
    D.Yellow frames .
    （3）The passage is mainly concerned with __________ .
    A.the relationship between colors and psychology
    B.a comparison of different functions of colors
    C.the use of colors in cells to affect criminals' psychology
    D.scientific ways to help criminals reform themselves in prison

    【题目】The Pacific island nation of Nauru used to be a beautiful place. Now it is an ecological disaster area. Nauru’s heartbreaking story could have one good consequence — other countries might learn from its mistakes.

    For thousands of years, Polynesian people lived in the remote island of Nauru, far from western civilization. The first European to arrive was John Fearn in 1798. He was the British captain of the Hunter, a whaling ship. He called the island Pleasant Island.

    However, because it was very remote, Nauru had little communication with Europeans at first. The whaling ships and other traders began to visit, bringing guns and alcohol. These elements destroyed the social balance of the twelve family groups on the island. A ten-year civil war started, which reduced the population from 1,400 to 900.

    Nauru’s real troubles began in 1899 when a British mining company discovered phosphate (磷酸盐)on the island. In fact, it found that the island of Nauru was nearly all phosphate, which was a very important fertilizer for farming. The company began mining the phosphate.

    A phosphate mine is not a hole in the ground; it is a strip mine(露天矿). When a company strip-mines, it removes the top layer of soil. Then it takes away the material it wants. Strip mining totally destroys the land. Gradually, the lovely island of Nauru started to look like the moon.

    In 1968, Nauru became one of the richest countries in the world. Every year the government received millions and millions of dollars for its phosphate.

    Unfortunately, the leaders invested the money unwisely and lost millions of dollars. In addition, they used millions more dollars for personal expenses. Soon people realized that they had a terrible problem — their phosphate was running out. Ninety percent of their island was destroyed and they had nothing. By 2000, Nauru was financially ruined. Experts say that it would take approximately $433,600,000 and more than 20 years to repair the island. This will probably never happen.

    【1】What was Nauru like before the Europeans came?

    A. Rich and powerful

    B. Peaceful and attractive

    C. Modern and open

    D. Greedy and aggressive

    【2】The ecological disaster in Nauru resulted from _____________.

    A. whale hunting

    B. phosphate overmining

    C. farming activity

    D. soil pollution

    【3】What can we learn about Nauru from the last paragraph?

    A. The ecological damage is difficult to repair.

    B. The leaders will take the experts’ words seriously.

    C. The island was abandoned by the Nauruans.

    D. The phosphate mines were destroyed.

    【4】What might be the author’s purpose in writing the text?

    A. To tell a heartbreaking story of a war.

    B. To seek help for Nauru’s problems.

    C. To show the importance of money.

    D. To give a warning to other countries.

    【题目】阅读理解
    Deborah Cohen is a senior natural scientist at the Rand Corp and the author of the book A Big Fat Crisis: The Hidden Forces Behind the Obesity Epidemic and How We Can End It. According to the book, there are lots of misunderstandings of obesity.
    1).If you're obese, blame your genes.
    Obesity rates have increased. Yet, between 1980 and 2000, the number of Americans who are obese has doubled—too quickly for genetic factors to be responsible.
    At restaurants, a dollar puts more calories on our plates than ever before, because restaurant meals usually have more calories than what we prepare at home, so people who eat out more frequently have higher rates of obesity than those who eat out less.
    2).If you're obese, you lack self-control.
    Research shows that if we are faced with too much information, we have a tendency to make poor dietary choices. Our world has become so rich in temptation that we can be led to consume too much in ways we can't understand. Even the most vigilant (警觉的) people may not be up to the task of controlling themselves.
    3).Lack of access to fresh fruits and vegetables is responsible for obesity.
    Although the US Department of Agriculture estimates that fewer than 5 percent of Americans live in the “food deserts”, about 65 percent of the nation's population is overweight or obese. For most of us, obesity is not related to access to more fresh fruits and vegetables, but to the choices we make in supermarkets.
    4).The problem is not that we eat too much, but that we don't exercise.
    Michelle Obama's “Let's Move” campaign is based on the idea that if kids exercise more, childhood obesity rates will decrease. But there was no significant decrease in physical activity levels as obesity rates climbed in the 1980s and 1990s. In fact, although a drop in work-related physical activity may account for up to 100 fewer calories burned, leisure physical activity appears to have increased. The problem is that we eat too much.
    （1）The author mentioned Deborah Cohen's book in Paragraph 1 to _______.
    A.introduce the topic
    B.advise readers to buy books
    C.introduce the author of the book
    D.advertise the book
    （2）What is the relationship between obesity and the place where you eat?
    A.The less you eat out, the higher rates of obesity you have.
    B.The less you eat at home, the lower rates of obesity you have.
    C.The more you eat out, the higher rates of obesity you have.
    D.The more you eat at home, the higher rates of obesity you have.
    （3）What's the best title of this passage?
    A.Four misunderstandings of obesity
    B.Four rules to help you avoid obesity
    C.Obesity leads to a big fat crisis
    D.Lacking self-control leads to obesity
