题目内容

Australian colour consultant(顾问)Kylie Bartnicki is talking with a group of women in Pudong, Shanghai, who are interested in how colours affect people's confidence and help form(形成)people's first impressions(印象).
Kylie traces(追溯)back her interest in colours to when she went for her first job interview at age 18. "My mother bought me a new red top to wear to my interview and she said, "Wear this, and it will be lucky."' Kylie recalls. "I wore it, had a great interview and got the job. Ever since then I started thinking about how powerful the colour is, how it makes us look and how it makes us feel."
"When we wear clothes in a good colour, the colour will make our skin, hair and eyes shine and we look happy and smart," Kylie says.
Winter and summer are "cool colourings" and autumn and spring are "warm colourings". Someone who loves "cool colouring" might have red or golden hair, brown eyes and gold or yellow skin.
Chinese women belong to the "autumn season" if they have darker, peachy skin. Chinese women belong to the "winter season" if they have pale skin. Kylie says that Chinese women who have dark eyes and dark hair will look best in deep, rich colours. Light pinks and blues should be  avoided because they may wash our Chinese skin tones(肤色).
Their talk usually lasts one and a half to two hours and costs 600 yuan (89 dollars). Kylie says her customers(客户) are as young as five years old and as old as 90. The customers between their 30s and 50s always want some fresh ideas on developing their own personal style.
【小题1】Chinese women who have dark eyes and dark hair won't look beautiful in_______.

A.purple B.red C.deep green D.light blue
【小题2】A mother and her daughter need to pay___ to get the advice from Kylie for their 2-hour talk.
A.$89 B.$120 C.$178 D.$600
【小题3】Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A.Wearing clothes in a good colour will make us look happy.
B.When Kylie was 18, she started to be interested in colours.
C.Kylie's customers are in between their 30s and 50s.
D.Autumn and spring are "warm clourings".


【小题1】D
【小题2】A
【小题3】C

解析试题分析:这篇文章主要讲述了颜色对人的影响。颜色顾问Kylie认为颜色对人的影响很大,例如红颜色的衣服帮助她通过面试;而不同肤色的人也适应不同的颜色。在她的顾客里,各种年龄的人都有。
【小题1】细节理解题。根据文中第五段Kylie says that Chinese women who have dark eyes and dark hair will look best in deep, rich colours. Light pinks and blues should be avoided because they may wash our Chinese skin tones可知,要避免浅粉色和浅蓝色,因为它们使我们的肤色“褪色”。故选D。
【小题2】细节理解题。根据文中最后一段Their talk usually lasts one and a half to two hours and costs 600 yuan (89 dollars)他们的谈话持续一个半到两个小时,花费600元,即89美元;故选A。
【小题3】判断推理题。根据文中最后一段Kylie says her customers(客户) are as young as five years old and as old as 90. Kylie说她的客户年轻的只有5岁,年老的有90岁;故C错误。

We sometimes have to meet some difficulties that we never expect, but we should develop a positive attitude to life. Keeping a positive attitude isn't always easy, especially when we are going through a difficult time in our life. However, we know, only when we take a positive attitude, can we overcome the difficulties.
On July 23rd, 1993, Wang Jiapeng lost his legs when his plane crashed. Wang was only 12 years old. He felt he was the unluckiest person in the world. When he saw students with their schoolbags on their backs, the sound of his wheelchair made him sick. Wang’s mother took him to a special hospital in Beijing. She looked after him in the daytime and worked at night to make money. But after two years,
Wang was still not able to leave the hospital. Wang’s mother became too tired to go on and one day she herself became a hospital patient! One morning she woke up and saw her son holding breakfast for her. Wang’s trip to the food shop was his first time outside the hospital in two years. The five-minute walk took him thirty minutes.
But he was finally able to make an important decision. He didn’t care how other people looked at him. He had to learn to do things himself.
For the next few years, Wang taught himself all his middle school subjects in the hospital and five years after the accident, he won a chance to study in a college in Norway. Wang learned to drive, go rock climbing and ski. He even won two gold medals for skiing in an international skiing competition.
“You are what you think you are,” said Wang. “If you think you’re disabled, you are. If you don’t think so, you aren’t.”
So we know that if you can keep a positive attitude, even when things aren't going well in your life, you are the true winner of life.
