Why are red, orange and yellow considered to be warm colours That's because they have the psychological effect(心理效应) of making us feel warm because of the association with fire, heat and sunshine. These colours are very eye catching.
Red can make us excited. It is the colour of passion and power. Orange gives off a friendly, attractive mood. It is lively and happy. Yellow has an enthusiastic mood. It is the colour of the sun, and it can attract attention.
The cool colours—green, blue and purple, have the psychological effect of making us feel cool because of the association with deep bodies of water, the open sky, or maybe mountains in the distance. These colours can be excellent choices for background.
Green sets a soothing mood. It is the colour of nature and represents new life and growth. Blue makes us feel peaceful and calm. It can also be cold like ice, or calm like a lake. Purple has a mysterious mood. Wearing purple looks elegant.

What do you think of black cats Are they unluckier than cats of other colours Many people in Western countries think so. Scientists, at the University of California, Berkeley(UC Berkeley), did a study on cat colours and people's understandings of cat personalities.
The study found that people do judge(判断) cat personalities by colour. Scientists did a survey(调查) on the Internet. There were 49 statements(描述) matching five cat colourings with 10 personalities. People think orange and bi coloured(双色的) cats are friendly, tri coloured(三色的) cats are not generous, and white cats are calm, lazy and shy. As for black cats, people think they don't have special personalities.
But why do so many people dislike keeping black cats as pets People think black cats have less special personalities, which might be because of their bad reputation(口碑). They think black cats may bring bad luck, especially at Halloween. Movies and television shows also make people believe that.
Although people have these ideas, UC Berkeley scientists give another reason: people don't think black cats are pretty enough. After all, nothing can show black cats are unluckier than other cats. “You can't judge a cat by its colour, because it's the personality of the cat, not the colour, that will let you know if the cat is right for you，” Cathy Marden, a scientist said.
4. The main idea of Paragraph 2 is that ________．
A. people often complain about black cats on the Internet
B. people think cats of different colours have different personalities
C. black cats are less popular than other cats
D. the study is a great success
5. According to the study, people think that________．
A. black cats have special personalities　　
B. orange and bi coloured cats are generous
C. cats with three colours are friendly　　　　
D. white cats are calm, lazy and shy
6. The passage mainly talks about ________．
A. why black cats are popular in movies
B. why people are not willing to keep black cats as pets
C. cats of different colours have different personalities
D. different people have different ideas on black cats
C
Long ago, Bluebird's feathers were the colour of dust. She did not like her ugly colour. She was attracted by the colour of the lake near her home. It was as blue as the sky after a storm. Bluebird wanted to be the colour of that beautiful lake very much.
Flapping her wings one morning, Bluebird flew from her tree to the blue lake. Then she bathed in the water three times. After each bath, she sang, “Blue water. Still water. I went in. I am blue.” Bluebird repeated this every morning. On the third day, she came out of the lake with beautiful blue feathers.
Now Coyote was a trickster(骗子)—and hungry too. He stayed behind Bluebird's tree for a long time every day and watched her go to the lake. He pretended to be interested in everything she did. He wanted Bluebird for lunch, but he was afraid of the blue water. On the third morning, Coyote saw Bluebird come out of the lake with beautiful blue feathers. Impressed, he sat next to Bluebird's tree and waited for her. When she returned, he asked, “How did you get blue feathers I want to be blue like the mountains too.” Bluebird didn't believe Coyote, but she taught him how to bathe three times each morning and how to sing her song. Coyote did what she said, and after three days of bathing in the lake, his white fur turned deep blue.
Convinced(相信) that blue fur was even more beautiful than blue feathers, Coyote forgot all about being hungry. He ran as fast as he could to the top of the hill. Standing on his back legs, he raised his front legs off the ground and howled. But Coyote slipped and rolled down the hill. He couldn't stop himself, and the dust and dirt covered his new blue fur. He rolled and rolled until he hit into Bluebird's tree heavily. No matter how much he tried, foolish Coyote could not shake the dust from his fur. And so the fur of all coyotes has the dull colour of dust to this very day.
7. Why was Coyote a trickster
A. He wanted to fly like Bluebird near the mountains.
B. He wanted to eat Bluebird but pretended to be curious.
C. He wanted to swim in the lake but was afraid of the water.
D. He wanted to sing Bluebird's song but didn't know the words.
8. Where did Coyote go after his fur turned blue
A. To the lake. B. To the tree.
C. To the cave. D. To the hill.
9. Why did Coyote forget all about being hungry
A. Because his fur had the dull colour of dust.
B. Because the dust and dirt covered his new blue fur.
C. Because he hit into Bluebird's tree and hurt himself.
D. Because he thought blue fur was much more beautiful.
10. What words does the writer use to help you imagine the colour blue
A. Sky, lake, mountains.
B. Bird, coyote, storm.
C. Flapped, climbed, bathed.
D. Fur, feathers, dust.

(2024南通如皋七校期中联考)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 star 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.
1. What does Chizi mean
______________________________________________________________________
2. When was the Five star Red Flag first raised
