In English, feeling "blue" means feeling sad. But in 2020, the word "blue" could mean something more positive (积极的) .
The Pantone Color Institute in the US forecasts (预测) color trends (趋势) every year. For 2020, it has chosen "classic blue", a color that reminds people of the sky before dark. The reason is that it brings "calm, confidence and connection," according to Pantone.
In 2020, people all over the world faced big challenges. Climate change, disease, homeless-ness... all of these problems made us feel nervous and uneasy. But as Pantone Vice(副) President Laurie Pressman said, "The color of classic blue has a comforting power."
Imagine that you are lying down on the ground and looking at the evening sky. Looking at the blue sky will make you feel calm and relaxed, as well as make you think on a deeper level.
Pantone said that classic blue connects people everywhere as we all look up at our shared sky. "This is a color we can relate to (引起共鸣) around the world, no matter where we live. We look outside the door and we see this color," Pressman said.
"Like blue jeans, it's always there and you're comfortable with it," said Pressman, who considered classic blue as a " timeless shade". If the color is never out of style, people won't throw "classic blue" things away. We can buy less and save resources.
So if you want to add some new things to your home, choose something blue to keep up with the latest trend.

五、任务型阅读
请认真阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容回答问题。
Chinese people like the red colour a lot. Even now, Chinese people like to refer to ourselves as Chizi, meaning the red descendant (子孙).
Red represents the motherland and authority. Official uniforms of the Tang Dynasty were red. In the Qing Dynasty, red was used on official caps to show different rankings. As we know, the Five-starred Red Flag was first raised on October 1st, 1949. Even nowadays, headlines of official documents (文件) are painted in red. This is why they are called red-head documents.
For ordinary people, red stands for happiness. For example, the word “double happiness” used for weddings is red. The bride (新娘) wears red clothes which are different from the white gowns of the west. During the Chinese Spring Festival, people will give red packets with money inside to the children as good wishes. Couplets (对联) hanging on both sides of the doors are written in red. The word red equals prettiness. The expression “hongyan” meaning red colour is a synonym of a beautiful girl. Red is also one of the most popular words used in the names of Chinese women. But in traffic lights red means stop driving. This is how the westerners like to use the red colour. It is because red is very bright, and is good for warning purposes. But it doesn’t really have any negative meanings.
52．What does Chizi mean
53．When was the Five-starred Red Flag first raised
54．Why are official documents called red-head documents
55．When will people give red packets
56．What do you think of the red colour

In English, feeling "blue" means feeling sad. But in 2020, the word "blue" could mean something more positive (积极的) .
The Pantone Color Institute in the US forecasts (预测) color trends (趋势) every year. For 2020, it has chosen "classic blue", a color that reminds people of the sky before dark. The reason is that it brings "calm, confidence and connection," according to Pantone.
In 2020, people all over the world faced big challenges. Climate change, disease, homeless-ness... all of these problems made us feel nervous and uneasy. But as Pantone Vice(副) President Laurie Pressman said, "The color of classic blue has a comforting power."
Imagine that you are lying down on the ground and looking at the evening sky. Looking at the blue sky will make you feel calm and relaxed, as well as make you think on a deeper level.
Pantone said that classic blue connects people everywhere as we all look up at our shared sky. "This is a color we can relate to (引起共鸣) around the world, no matter where we live. We look outside the door and we see this color," Pressman said.
"Like blue jeans, it's always there and you're comfortable with it," said Pressman, who considered classic blue as a " timeless shade". If the color is never out of style, people won't throw "classic blue" things away. We can buy less and save resources.
So if you want to add some new things to your home, choose something blue to keep up with the latest trend.
