Jim， a successful businessman， told the experience of his childhood.

When he was 12， his parents died. He was alone and didn’t get on well with others. People always laughed at him. No one showed kindness to him.

His only friend was a dog named Tige. He gave his dog enough to eat and drink， but sometimes he was not polite to it. He didn’t know that an unkind work sometimes could cut one’s heart like a knife.

One day as he walked down the street， a young lady was walking in front of him. Suddenly one of her bags dropped from her arms. As she stopped to pick it up， she dropped other bags. He came to help her. “Thank you， dear! You are a nice little boy!” she said kindly， smiling.

A special feeling came to him. These were the first kind words he had ever heard. He watched her until she went far away， and then he whistled （吹口哨）to his dog happily and went directly to the river nearby.

“Thank you， dear! You are a nice little boy!” he repeated the woman’s words. Then in a low voice he said to his dog， “You are a nice little dog!” Tige raised its ears as if it understood.

“Uhum! Even a dog likes it!” he said， “Well， Tige， I won’t say unkind words to you anymore.” Tige waved its tail happily.

The boy thought and thought. Finally he looked at himself in the river. He saw nothing but a dirty boy. He washed his face carefully. Again he looked. He saw a clean nice boy. He was amazed. From then on， he had a new life.

27、   What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange or red? If you do, you must be an active person who enjoys life. Do you like blue? Then you’re probably quiet and shy.

Colors do influence our moods （情绪）. A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one, and a red dress brings warmth. On the other hand, black is depressing （使人压抑的）. There was a black bridge over the Thames River, near London. The number of people who killed themselves on that bridge used to be larger than on any other bridge in the area until it was repainted green.

Light and bright colors make people not only happier but also more active. In the factory, the workers will work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black.

根据短文内容，判断下列句子正误。（正确的“T”，错误的“F”）.

【1】An active person may like yellow, orange, or red.

【2】Colors do influence on our moods.

【3】Most people feel more relaxed in a bark green room than in a yellow one.

【4】More people killed themselves on the black bridge because the bridge was too crowded.

【5】In the factory, when the machines are painted orange, the workers will work harder.

28、短文填空。

Many Chinese people go abroad to travel, to study, and even to live on their own. People should learn about the cultures they visit because some of the cultures are very d【1】 from ours. If you know them and understand them, it will help you a lot.

Talking about the weather and sports is a good way to s【2】 a conversation. But when you talk to westerners, you shouldn’t ask their age because it is not p【3】. Also, you should not ask about how much money they make every month, not even with someone you know well. In p【4】 places like museums and libraries, you shouldn’t eat or drink when others are q【5】 looking at art works or reading books. When you visit a western country and you want to give someone a small g【6】 or flowers, be careful to choose the right c【7】 of flowers. This is because in some countries white flowers are for the dead. When you receive a present from someone, remember to write a thank you note to e【8】 your thankfulness. Using polite language will never be w【9】.

The most important thing to remember is that wherever you are, r【10】 the local culture. It may not be the same as the one in your home country, but you should try your best to learn about it and respect it.

29、A boy was walking home from school when he saw a large temping（诱人的）apple on one of the branches of an apple tree hanging out over a tall fence. The boy wasn’t much of a fruit-eater. He would _________ a bar of chocolate if given the choice. But as they say, the forbidden fruit can be attractive. Seeing the apple, the boy wanted it. The more he looked at it, the _________ he felt and the more he wanted that apple.

He stood on tiptoe（脚尖）, stretching as high as he could, but even at his tallest height he was unable to touch it. He began to jump up and down, as high as he could, at the top of each jump stretching his arms to get the apple. Still it remained out of _________ .

Not given up, he thought, if only he had something to _________ on. His schoolbag wouldn’t give enough height and he didn’t want to _________ the things inside, like his lunch box, pencil cases, and Gameboy. Looking around, he hoped he might find an old box, a rock, or, _________ luck, even a ladder, but it was a tidy neighborhood and there was nothing he could use.

He had tried everything he could think to do. Without seeing any other choices, he gave up and started to walk _________ . At first, he felt angry and disappointed thinking about how hungry he had become from his efforts, and how he really wanted that apple. The more he thought like this, the more unhappy he became.

However, the story was pretty smart. He started to say to himself, “This isn’t _________ . I don’t have the apple and I’m feeling sad. There’s _________ more that I can do to get the apple-that is unchangeable-but I am able to ____________ my feeling. If that’s the case, what can I do to feel better?”
