The Color of Renaissance(文艺复兴)
Florence is traditionally associated with a specific shade of red called
“Florentine red” or“Florentine rose”. This color is often seen in the buildings,
artwork of the city. It is a warm, earthy red color that reflects the city's rich
history and cultural heritage. The use of this color can date back to the Middle
Ages and the Renaissance, when Florence was a center of art and culture in Europe. Today, you can
still find buildings and landmarks in Florence that show this special red color.
The color of the Hangzhou Asian Games is inspired by a line written by Su Shi
from the Song Dynasty, “If the West Lake was the Great Beauty, she would look
beautiful whether in light or heavy make-up.” By mixing elements from Chinese
color culture and the special features of Hangzhou city, a color system has been
designed with purple, red, white, yellow, blue, and green, which altogether paint a lively and harmon
ious(和谐的) picture of the new Hangzhou.
Strict but Loyal(忠诚的)
Paris is known for its strict rules in colors. The buildings are in light cream
color, while the rooftops are primarily dark gray. In addition, many of the old
buildings, such as the Tomb of Napoleon, as well as the Louvre Museum and the
Palace of Versailles, are decorated with gold sculptures(雕刻). It has been reported that since the 198
0s, Paris has carried out color planning and it has been even put into government regulations(规定).
This reflects the French people's respect for history and culture, especially their attention to color.

Born in 1451 in Italy, Christopher Columbus is regarded as the first
European to discover America. When he was young, Columbus loved
sailing adventure very much. When he was 26 years old, he began to make business voyages(航海).
The farthest countries he reached were Iceland and Guinea.
At that time, many European countries became stronger and stronger.Their ships reached
Africa and Asia. They got gold, silver, silk, tea and other things from the countries of Asia. The book
The Travels of Marco Polo greatly influenced him, in which China and India were written perfectly.
Columbus wanted to make another way to these two countries. Since he didn't have enough money,
he asked some countries for help, such as Portugal, Spain, the UK and France. He told the leaders the
Earth was round and if they helped him, he could easily get to China. Nobody believed his words
and he was regarded as a cheat. Of course, he didn't succeed.
It was not until 1492 that his dream came true. The Queen of Spain persuaded the King to
support Columbus. On August 3,1492, Columbus left Spain and began his voyage. He had three
ships. After two months’ hard sailing, on October 12, they got to an island in the Bahamas. On

Telecom fraud(电信诈骗) has become a serious problem. In 2020 alone, scam calls
in the USA caused a total loss of about 19.7 billion dollars. The amount of money lost by Americans
increased by 9.2 billion dollars from 2019 to 2020, mostly due to scam calls.
I was told recently about a family friend who was at work when she received a call on her desk
phone line. The caller claimed to be with her electric company and said if she didn't make a quick
payment, her electricity would be shut off. The caller knew her name, address, where she worked
and her work phone line. So, in a hurry, she transferred(转出) the money. Later, when she got home,
she called the electric company only to find out she didn't have any outstanding charges.
Scammers are getting smarter. They are well-researched, well-spoken. So it is important to
know how to avoid and prevent telecom fraud.
★ First, never give out any personal information like your bank account to someone you
don’ t know. Ask for a name and call-back number to know how the caller knew your information. If
the caller claims to be from your water, electricity, bank or any other organization and they are
asking you for personal information, raise the red flag.
Second, you should know your expenses(支出). If you have a good sense of your monthly
expenses,and you know it is impossible that you are behind, then you will recognize the caller as a
fraud.
Third, you must ignore(忽视) requests from anyone who calls you uninvited. Many scammers
also can fake caller ID. So the safest way is simply not answering unknown calls. If the caller insists
it's an urgent matter and they need to speak with you, regarding your bank account or a family
member, tell them you will call their organization directly.
( )61. Which writing skill is used in Paragraph 1
A. Raising a question. B. Listing numbers.
C. Sharing an opinion. D. Comparing differences.
( )62. People believed scamming most probably because .
A. scammers knew the exact information B. they didn't know their extra expenses
C. they made rapid decisions easily D. the similar things didn't happen befor
e
( )63. The underlined word“They” refers to .
A. electric company staffs B. unknown calls
C. scammers D. the writer's friends
( )64. Which of the following can be put in ★
A. The government has taken action to prevent it.
B. There are three ways we should always remember.
C. It's easy for young people to tell whether it is a scam call.
D. Your personal information can also be collected through social media.
