名師點(diǎn)評:
不同顏色往往可以代表不同的心情。根據(jù)不同顏色的特點(diǎn)以及給人留下的感覺,顏色的選擇在日常生活中往往也起著一定的作用。本文以其中的一些顏色為例作了相關(guān)的解釋說明,是一篇知識性很強(qiáng)的文章。
1.B。根據(jù)上文的strong feeling可知anger最合乎文意。
2.C。下文所列舉的例子STOP signs和 fire engines都屬于危險(xiǎn)信號,故選擇danger。
3.B。根據(jù)常識,黃色應(yīng)是秋天樹葉的顏色,故應(yīng)選leaves。
4.A。下文提到人們把黃色和幸福聯(lián)系起來,說明黃色是一個(gè)充滿生機(jī)的顏色,故選lively。
5.C。下文提到黃色是令人愉快的顏色,根據(jù)常識太陽光的顏色是黃色,故選sunlight。
6.B。綠色是春季里草的顏色,故選spring。
7.C。speak后面往往接某種語言作賓語;say后面常接說話的內(nèi)容;tell的賓語一般是人;talk about sth.意為談?wù)撃呈挛?。故C為正確選項(xiàng)。
8.B。根據(jù)上文對yellow的解釋。說明yellow也屬于warm color。
9.C。與下文喜歡冷色調(diào)的人相對應(yīng),再根據(jù)上文對各種暖色調(diào)的選擇,active合乎文意為正確選項(xiàng)。
10.D。others相當(dāng)于other people意為“別的人”。another指“另一個(gè)”。other one不可單獨(dú)使用,the other one指“另外的一個(gè)”。
11.A。四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中只有black可歸納到冷色調(diào)當(dāng)中去。
12.B。go around意為“到處走動”;go off 意為“離開,爆炸”;go along意為“前進(jìn),進(jìn)行”;go by意為“走過,流逝”。根據(jù)文意,應(yīng)選go by。
13.B。way根據(jù)上文,暖色調(diào)的環(huán)境下時(shí)間似乎過得更慢,說明暖色調(diào)是用來裝飾居室和飯館的好方法,故選擇way。
14.C。比較四個(gè)場所只有飯館適合使用暖色調(diào)。
15.B。與暖色調(diào)相對立,冷色調(diào)適用于辦公室,以使人感覺時(shí)間過得比較快。
