Question

【题目】There are many colours in nature. But do you know that a colour 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(实验).

First, put two objects with the same weight into two boxes. Then cover the boxes. Wrap(包裹) one box with a red piece of paper, the other with a white piece of paper. 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 does it happen? A scientist found that different colours have different weight in a man’s mind. So he did many tests and at last he got the result. That is to say, every colour has its own weight in our mind. The heaviest colour is red, then blue, green, orange, yellow and white. The scientists told us that colours also have smell. Can you smell the colour? Of course not. Then why did the scientists say so? That is because every colour represents a kind of light wave(光波)------ a certain wavelength(波长). It reaches our brain(大脑) through organs(感觉器官)

According to this discovery, scientists say that people accept the colour they like, and refuse the colour they hate. So your body and mind will be healthy by using the colours you like. Or you’ll be nervous or even get ill. If you stay in a room with red windows, wallpapers and furniture(家具) 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 one 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 when we see different colours.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】D

【2】D

【3】C

【4】A

【解析】

试题分析：自然有许多颜色。科学家发现不同的颜色在人的头脑中有着不同的重量。也就是说，每一种颜色都有自己的重量。最重的颜色是红色，然后是蓝色、绿色、橙色、黄色和白色。科学家告诉我们，颜色也有气味。但不能闻到这种颜色。

【1】D细节理解题。根据The heaviest colour is red, then blue, green, orange, yellow and white. 最重的颜色是红色，然后是蓝色、绿色、橙色、黄色和白色。可知白色最轻，故选D.

【2】D细节理解题。根据So your body and mind will be healthy by using the colours you like. Or you’ll be nervous or even get ill.故选D。

【3】C细节理解题。根据Another example, if a person walks out of a red room and into a blue room, his temperature will fall. 故选C。

【4】A推理判断题。根据If you stay in a room with red windows, wallpapers and furniture(家具) for two hours, you’ll feel you have been there for four hours.可知在红颜色的房间里两个小时就像呆了四个小时，那么呆一个小时就像呆了两个小时，故选A。
