Most visitors find the celebrities’ choice of footwear extremely interesting.

As well as shoes and boots, the museum also exhibits shoe - shaped objects. The variety is unbelievable. For example, there is a metal lamp that resembles a pair of shoes, and Greek wine bottles that like legs!

Why is pink or purple a color for girls and blue or brown for boys?
The answer depends largely on cultural values as well as personal experiences. To the Egyptians, green was a color that represented the hope and joy of spring, while for Muslims, it means heaven. Red is a symbol of good luck in many cultures. In China, children are given money in a red envelope to bring good fortune in the New Year. For many nations, blue is a symbol of protection and religious beliefs. Greek people often wear a blue necklace hoping to protect themselves against evils.
People’s choice of colors is also influenced by their bodies’ reactions toward them. Green is said to be the most restful color. It has the ability to reduce pain and relax people both mentally and physically. People who work in green environments have been found to have fewer stomach aches.
Red can cause a person’s blood pressure to rise and increase people’s appetites（食欲）. Many decorators will include different shades of red in the restaurant. Similarly, many commercial websites will have a red “Buy Now” button because red is a color that easily catches a person’s eye.
Blue is another calming color. Unlike red, blue can cause people to lose appetite. So if you want to eat less, some suggest that eating from blue plates can help.
The next time you are deciding on what to wear or what color to decorate your room, think about the color carefully.

A. eating habits B. commercial purposes
C. cultural values D. physical reactions to the color

Two recent studies have found that punishment is not the best way to influence behavior.
One showed that adults are much more cooperative if they work in a system based on rewards. Researchers at Harvard University in the United States and the Stockholm School of Economics in Sweden did the study.
They had about two hundred college students play a version of the game known as the Prisoner’s Dilemma. The game is based on the tension (紧急气氛) between the interests (利益) of an individual and a group. The students played in groups of four. Each player could win points for the group, so they would all gain equally. But each player could also reward or punish each of the other three players, at a cost to the punisher.
Harvard researcher David Rand says the most successful behavior proved to be cooperation. The groups that rewarded it the most earned about twice as much in the game as the groups that rewarded it the least. And the more a group punished itself, the lower its earnings were. The group with the most punishment earned twenty-five percent less than the group with the least punishment. The study appeared last month in the journal Science.
The other study involved children. It was presented last month in California at a conference on violence and abuse. Researchers used intelligence tests given to two groups. More than eight hundred children aged two to four the first time they were tested. More than seven hundred children aged five to nine.
The two groups were retested four years later, and the study compared the results with the first test. Both groups contained children whose parents used physical punishment and children whose parents did not. The study says the IQs—or intelligence quotients—of the younger children who were not spanked were five points higher than those who were. In the older group, the difference was almost three points.
Murray Strauss from the University of New Hampshire worked with Mallie Paschall from the Pacific Institute for Research and Evaluation. Professor Strauss has written extensively about physical punishment of children. He says the more they are spanked, the slower their mental development. He also looked at average IQs in other nations and found them lower where spanking was more common.
64. Which could be the best title of the passage?
A. Punishment
B. The Best Way to Influence Behavior.
C. Punishment or Reward: Which Works Better on Behavior?
D. Two Recent Studies.
65. The underlined word “spanked” probably means______.
A. won B. punished C. tested D. praised
66. According to the passage, the researchers may agree the best way to influence behavior is______.
A. rewarding good behavior B. correcting bad behavior
C. punishing badly-behaved children D. praising well-behaved children
67. The author develops the passage______.
A. in order of time B. in order of importance
C. by describing his experiences D. by using quotations and statistics
D
Summer time is in full swing，which for many kids means being happily removed from the classroom strictness and the stress of daily homework.
But as kids and parents enjoy their well-deserved break from school work，we can all take a more active role in ensuring their minds don’t simply melt away into a mess of video games，texting and social media.
Summer is the perfect time to encourage children to read. A recent study，conducted by Common Sense Media，has found that the older kids get，the less likely they are to read for pleasure.
There has been a drop in reading among all kids，especially adolescents over time. And reading for fun drops off dramatically as children grow. The study found that more than half of all nine-year-old read daily for fun. But those numbers drop to just 27 percent among 13-year-old and even lower for older teens. In 1984，31 percent of 17-year-old said they read every day for pleasure. But that number has dropped to a disturbing 19 percent today.
It’s not just the kids who are reading less. Parents also read to their children less than ever. A recent survey shows this busier generation of parents read to their children just an average of 30 minutes per day- down from an average of 45 minutes per day in 1999.
In today’s world，there are more distractions for children，and reading doesn’t always stand high on that list. Part of the decline is surely due to the technology impact on children. But the digital revolution also means opportunity. There are more platforms than ever for children to read：from tablets to e-Readers. In this brave new world，we must find more creative ways to engage our kids and ensure that we are raising a new generation of readers.
68. One of the main reasons why children read less is that＿．
A. their reading proficiency is declining B. they are faced with the homework stress
C. parents are too busy to read to them D. books written for them are not attractive
69. How did the author describe the decline of reading in Paragraph 4？
A. By listing figures. B. By giving examples.
C. By conducting a survey. D. By telling a story.
