Passage 1
Scientists find that hard-working people live longer than average men and women. Career women are healthier than housewives. Evidence shows that the jobless are in poorer health than jobholders. An investigation shows that whenever the unemployment.
Why is work good for health? It is because work keeps people busy away from loneliness. Researches show that people feel unhappy, worried and lonely when they have nothing to do. Instead, the happiest are those who are busy. Many high achievers who love their careers feel that they are happiest when they are working hard. Work serves as a bridge between man and reality. By work people come into with each other. By collective activity they find friendship and warmth. This is helpful to health. The loss of work means the loss of everything. It affects man spiritually and makes him ill.
Besides, work gives one a sense of fulfillment and a sense of achievement. Word makes one feel his value and status in society. When a writer finishes his writing or a doctor successfully operates on a patient or a teacher sees his students grow, they are happy beyond words.

Passage 2
Blind people can “see” things by using other parts of their bodies. This fact may help us to understand our feelings about color. If blind people can sense color differences, then perhaps we, too, are affected by color unconsciously(无意识地)。
Manufacturers(生产商)have discovered by experience that sugar sells. Badly in green wrappings, that blue foods are considered unpleasant, and that cosmetics(化装品) should never be packaged in brown. These discoveries have grown into a branch of color psychology.
Color psychology now finds application in everything from fashion to decoration. Some of our preferences are clearly psychological. Dark blue is the color of the night sky and therefore associated with calm, while yellow is a day color with associations of energy and incentive(刺激). For a primitive man, activity during the day meant hunting and attacking, while he soon saw red as the color of blood and anger and the heat that came with effort. And green is associated with passive defense and self-protection.
Experiments have shown that colors, partly because of their psychological associations, also have a direct psychological effect.People exposed to bring red show an increase in breath, in heartbeat and in blood pressure; red is exciting. Similar exposure to pure blue has exactly the opposite effect; it is a calming color. Because of its exciting meaning, red is chosen as the signal for danger, but closer analysis shows that a vivid yellow can produce a more basic state of alarm. So fire engines and ambulances in some advanced communities are now rushing around in bright yellow colors that stop the traffic dead.
6. Our preferences for certain colors are _______ according to the passage. 
  A. associated with the time of the day B. dependent on our personalities
  C. are linked with our ancestors D. partly due to psychological factors

  A. They breathe faster. B. They feel satisfied.
  C. Their blood pressure rises. D. Their hearts beat faster.
8. Which of the following statements if NOT true according to the passage?  
  A. Color probably has an effect on us which we are not conscious of.
  B. Yellow fire engines have caused many bad accidents in some advanced communities.
  C. People exposed to pure blue start to breathe more slowly.
 D. The psychology of color is of some practical use.
9. Which of the following statements if TRUE according to the passage?  
  A. Manufacturers often sell sugar in green wrapping.
  B. Dark blue bring people the feeling of being energetic.
  C. Primitive people associated heat and anger with red.
  D. Green and yellow are associated with calm and passive defense.
10. Which of the following could be the most suitable title for the passage?  
  A. The Branch of Color Psychology B. Color and Its Meanings
  C. The Practical Use of Color Psychology D. Color and Feelings.
