  It was New Year’s Night. An aged man was standing at a window. He raised his mournful eyes towards the deep blue sky, where the stars were floating like white lilies on the surface of a clear calm lake.
He had already passed sixty and brought from his journey nothing but errors and regrets. Now his health was poor, his mind vacant and his heart sorrowful.
The days of his youth appeared like dreams before him, and he recalled the serious moment when his father placed him at the entrance of the two roads- one leading to a peaceful, sunny place, covered with flowers, fruits and filled with soft, sweet songs; the other leading to a deep, dark cave, which was endless, where poison flowed instead of water and devils and poisonous snake hissed ( 发嘶嘶声) and crawled (爬, 爬行).
He saw the lights flowing away in the darkness. These were the days of his wasted life; he saw a star fall from the sky and disappeared, and this was the symbol of himself. His regret like a sharp arrow struck deeply into his heart. Then he remembered his friends in his childhood. But they had made their way to success and were now honoured and happy on this night.
The high church clock struck and the sound made him remember his parents’ early love for him. They had taught him and prayed for his good. But he chose the wrong way. With shame and grief he dared no longer look towards that heaven. His darkened eyes were full of tears, and with a despairing effort, he burst out a cry: “Come back, my early days!”
His youth did return, for all this was only a dream which he had on New Year Night. He was still young though his faults were real; he had not yet entered the deep, dark cave, and he was still free to walk on the road which leads to the peaceful and sunny land.
Those who still wander on the entrance of life, hesitating to choose the bright road, remember that when years are passed and your feet stumble (绊脚) on the dark mountains, you will cry bitterly, but in vain(徒劳): “ Oh youth, return! Oh give me back my early days!”

Dear Victor,
I have received your loving letter from school and I am glad to know that you are becoming responsible(有责任的) enough to decide on your career(职业).
You are now in the final year of high school and are going to start further education in college. You know that we belong to different times, and my social life is different from yours. However, all I can say as advice is that you must choose a career wisely. The first consideration is your interest. You can only succeed and feel happy when you do something you enjoy. You must get a job which not only provides you with something useful, but also you are pleased with. Then, you must read a lot in the field(领域) you are aiming at. Also, you should get to know the men and women who work in that field. When mind and heart work together, success is inevitable.
No career is more or less important. I think your interest may be in the field of making TV programs. Your good communication skills, your taking an active part in school plays and the prizes you have won in speech competitions all lead you to that direction. So a career in Mass Communication and TV film production will bring luck to you. If you succeed in that field, you will become famous and rich.
Think a thousand times before making any final decision about your career. After all, we want you to be a man of success.
We all know that you are old enough to think for yourself.
With all the best wishes! Your loving father

     In general (一般来说), people talk about two groups of colors: warm colors and cool colors. Scientists
think that there are also two groups of people: people who prefer warm colors and people who prefer cool
colors.
    The warm colors are red, orange, and yellow. Where there are warm colors and a lot of light, people
usually want to be active. People think that red, for example, is exciting. Sociable (善交际的) people, those
who like to be with others, like red. The cool colors are green, blue, and violet. These colors, unlike warm
colors, are relaxing. Where there are cool colors, people are usually quiet. People who like to spend time
alone often prefer blue.
    Red may be exciting, but one scientist says that time seems to pass more slowly in a room with warm
colors than in a room with cool colors. He suggests that a warm color, such as red or orange, is a good
color for a living room or restaurant. People who are relaxing or eating do not want time to pass quickly.
Cool colors are better for offices or factories if the people who are working there want time to pass
quickly.
    Scientists do not know why people think some colors are warm and other colors are cool. However,
almost everyone agrees that red, orange, and yellow are warm and that green, blue, and violet are cool.
Perhaps warm colors remind people of warm days and the cool colors remind them of cool days. Because
in the north the sun is low during winter, the sunlight appears quite blue. Because the sun is higher during
summer, the hot summer sunlight appears yellow.
1. When people talk about two groups of people, they mean those who  ______.
A. are green, blue and purple
B. are yellow, red and yellow
C. are warm colours and cool colours
D. like warm colours and those who like cool colours
2. The people who like warm colours ______.
A. are very hard to get on with others
B. like to stay at home by themselves
C. are very easy to get on with others
D. don't like to be with others
3. Which of the following is NOT true?
A. Maybe warm colours make people think of warm days.
B. The persons who are relaxing don't want time to pass slowly.
C. The writer thinks cool colours are good for officers or factories.
D. Time seems to pass more slowly in a room with warm colours than in a room with cool colours.
4. Why do some people like warm colours and others like cool colours?
A. Scientists haven't found out yet.
B. Because people who like warm colours are active.
C. Because warm colours are nicer than cool colours.
D. Because people who like cool colours prefer staying at home alone.
5. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. Two groups of colours
B. Cool colours
C. Warm colours
D. Colours and people
