Just as certain actors led me to acting, certain cooking show hosts should be responsible for my strong interest in the subject of food. The first is of course Julia Child, the queen of culinary (烹饪的) TV.
Child not only changed what Americans cooked and ate, but also greatly influenced their diet of weekly television viewing. Her show The French Chef, which aired in 1963, was one of the first cooking shows on American television and lasted for 10 years. Watching her expertly cook, often making mistakes along the way, made viewers feel that they too could create such dishes. Her achievements were amazing, from her first work, Mastering the Art of French Cooking, to countless others, as well as season upon season of shows.
Child has always interested me. Watching The French Chef with my mom was a way to spend some time with her because with three kids and a full-time job, she was extremely busy. In fact, we would often watch the show when she was doing housework. My mother admired Child and in turn passed the feeling to me along with an interest in how someone goes about cooking a meal.
Years later, I caught an old episode (集) of the show at my parents’ home and watched it with even more attentiveness than I had when I was young. When Child said in her last episode, “This is Julia Child, bon appétit (祝您好胃口)!” Tears suddenly welled up in my eyes. I realized that I was moved by Child not only because she brought back happy boyhood memories but also because Child herself was so happy to be doing what she was doing.
I saw at that moment the embodiment (典型) of what I and so many of us want to become. To spend your life doing what you love and doing it well.
4. What do we know about Julia Child
A. She took part in many cooking competitions.
B. She pioneered cooking shows in America.
C. She worked as a director for a TV show.
D. She wrote books about American food.
5. Why did the young author watch The French Chef
A. To relax after finishing housework.
B. To enjoy his mother’s company.
C. To learn to cook meals for his mother.
D. To free his mother from looking after kids.
6. What happened to the author when he watched Child’s show years later
A. He was surprised by her words.
B. He felt regret for his boyhood.
C. He understood the meaning of life.
D. He found he had a talent for cooking.
7. What does the text mainly talk about
A. Julia Child’s effects on me. B. Julia Child’s achievements.
C. Julia Child’s wonderful life. D. Julia Child’s amazing show.
C
Jasmine is on my Zoom screen. She is pulling her hair. As she starts talking, the rate of the pulling increases. “My exam is on Friday,” she tells me, “What if I get a question I can’t answer What if I don’t get a good grade ”
Jasmine is just one of the students suffering from test anxiety. The word “anxiety” originates from Latin, meaning narrowing. The “narrowing” describes what’s happening in Jasmine’s nervous system. Basically, the sympathetic (交感神经) branch — fight-or-flight — has switched on, and her muscles have narrowed as if she’s preparing to do battle or run away. Commonly known the “rest and digest” branch, the parasympathetic nervous (副交感神经) system plays an important role in thinking and learning by promoting a state of relaxation and calmness. When the parasympathetic nervous system starts working, it reduces stress and anxiety, improving focus and concentration.
There are three simple tools for engaging the parasympathetic branch: breathing, grounding, and sensing. Breathing means a steady flow of breath; grounding means feeling the chair and the floor supporting you; and sensing means turning on one or more of the five senses.
In more than 40 years of coaching test-takers, I have observed how often they hold their breath, how nervous and ungrounded they are, and how unaware they are of feeling the touch of clothes on their own bodies. No wonder people are exhausted by the end of a long test! When they use the three calming tools, they create the state necessary for sitting still, thinking, remembering, reasoning, and, finally, answering questions.
We all face countless tests in everyday life. Unexpected, unwanted things happen to everyone. Wouldn’t it be a whole lot better if we faced the tests by being calm In case you’re wondering, the answer is “Yes!” But the real question is: Instead of forcing students to progress through endless comparison and competition, why don’t we teach them how to stay calm
8. Why does the author mention Jasmine in the first paragraph
A. To show students’ intense emotions.
B. To introduce a problem students face.
C. To compare different attitudes towards tests.
D. To analyse students’ behaviors during video calls.
9 What change would be brought when the parasympathetic nervous system is at work
A. Improved attention. B. Worsened anxiety.
C. Tightened muscles. D. Quickened response.
10. From the last paragraph we can infer that the writer thinks it important ________.
A. to take some tests to make progress
B. to attach importance to comparison and competition
C. to learn to avoid unexpected and unwanted things in life
D. to prepare students with the ways to keep calm during tests
11. What is the text mainly about
A. What do students face in tests B. How to deal with test anxiety
C. How to engage the nervous system D. What should students do to avoid tests
D
Do the colors that surround you influence how you feel Can the colors on your walls and on your clothes affect your moods Some researchers believe the answer is a decisive yes, while others aren’t so sure.
Yet many marketers, interior designers, medical professionals and others swear by an informal field of science known as color psychology. Color psychology is defined as “the study of how the colors we perceive impact our thoughts and feelings.”
Marketers use the science of color to persuade us to buy things. When choosing paint, furniture and wall art, interior designers act on the theory that colors can arouse certain feelings in us. Dentists are often advised to use light blue paint on their office walls to help calm apprehensive patients.
We should keep in mind, though, that only by considering cultural preferences are we able to fully understand the science of color. For instance, in the West, white is for brides and black is for funerals. But in ancient Asia, white was sometimes worn for funerals. In Japan yellow represents courage while in the United States, it represents happiness. Additionally, many variables including gender, age, background and more must be considered before making color assumptions when one is studying the effects of color.
After taking color variable into account it’s safe to consider some mainstream theories about specific colors and their meanings. Here are just a few:
Red symbolizes love, energy, passion and danger. Red is also believed to increase one’s hunger, which might be the reason why McDonald’s and Coca-Cola chose red as their major branding color.
Brown, a color from nature, best represents things that are honest, trustworthy and dependable. It seems a perfect fit as the branding color for the package delivery company UPS.
Blue-in addition to representing peace and calm-also means integrity and competence. It’s no surprise that PayPal and American Express both use blue as their branding color.
Green-another color from nature-represents health, growth and freshness and is the perfect branding color for Starbucks.
Pink symbolizes love, romance, innocence and femininity (女性特质). The popular doll company that makes Barbie uses pink as its major branding color.
If color psychology advocates are correct, then our emotions and decisions are truly influenced by the colors around us. With this knowledge, we can effectively harness (驾驭) color power to create positive school, work and home environments.
12. What does the phrase “swear by” in the second paragraph probably mean
A. deeply investigate B. somewhat doubt
C. deeply believe D. still wish
13. What is the writer’s purpose of taking white and black as an example in the passage
A. To remind we should take culture into account when learning the science of color.
B. To state that cultural preferences are decisive factors in color psychology.
C. To show different cultures have different preferences for different colors.
D. To prove white and black represent complete different things in different countries.
14. We can conclude from the passage that ________.
A. color psychology may help us make correct decisions in life
B. color psychology is an uncultivated field in modern science
C color psychology has been recognized throughout the world
D. color psychology is influencing our emotions and decisions
15. What would be the proper title for the passage
A. The potential effects of color on our lives.
B. The positives and negatives of color psychology.
C. The foundation and function of color psychology.
D. The relationship between color and man Section

___19___
