For centuries, the body's blood has been linked closely with the emotions．People who show no human emotions or feelings, are said to be cold-blooded killer．For example, the police are searching for a cold-blooded killer．He seems to kill for no reason, and no emotion, as if taking someone's life as nothing． Cold can affect other parts of the body．The expression "get cold feet" has nothing to do with cold or your feet．The expression means being afraid to do something you have decided to do．For example, you agree to be president of an organization．But then you learn that all the other officers have resigned, and all the work of the organizations will be your responsibility．You are likely to get cold feet about being president when you understand the situation. The expression "give someone the cold shoulder" probably comes from the physical act of turning your back toward someone, instead of speaking to him face to face．You may give a cold shoulder to a friend who has not kept a promise he made to you．Or, to someone who has lied about you to others. A cold fish is not a fish．It is a person．But it is a person who is unfriendly, unemotional and shows no love or warmth．A cold fish does not offer much of himself to anyone．Someone who is a cold fish could be cold-hearted．Now a cold-hearted person is someone who has no sympathy．Several popular songs in recent years were about cold-hearted men or cold-hearted women who, without feelings, broke the hearts of their lovers. "Out in the cold" means not getting something that everybody else got．A person might say that everybody but him got a pay raise——he was left out in the cold．And it is not a pleasant place to be. 1.When you refuse to speak to a man and treat him in a distant way, you may express by "_____"． A．I give him the cold shoulder B．I think he is a cold-blooded man C．I think he is a cold fish D．I'm likely to get cold feet 2.If Sue shows absolutely no reaction to those awful pictures of starving children in Africa, you will say ______． A．she is a cold-blooded killer B．she gets cold feet C．she is a cold fish D．she is out in the cold 3.We can use the expression "_____" to describe a man who abandons or hurts his lover without mercy． A．cold-blooded B．cold shoulder C．cold feet D．cold-hearted 4.The topic of this passage is about _____． A．the relationship between cold and our body B．some expressions about friendship C．some expressions connected with cold D．how cold weather comes into being

Baby girls make their way directly for dolls as soon as they can crawl, while boys will head for the toy cars, a study has shown. The findings, the first to show differences in very young babies, suggest there is a biological basis to their preferences. Psychologists Dr Brenda Todd from City University London carried out an experiment involving 90 infants aged nine months to 36 months. The babies were allowed to choose from seven toys. Some were stereotypically boys' toys - a car, a digger, a ball and a blue teddy. The rest were girls’ toys: a pink teddy, a doll and a cooking set. They were placed a meter away from the toys, and could pick whichever toy they liked. Their choice and the amount of time they spent playing with each toy were recorded. Of the youngest children (nine to 14 months), girls spent significantly longer playing with the doll than boys, and boys spent much more time with the car and ball than the girls did. Among the two-and three-year-olds, girls spent 50 percent of the time playing with the doll while only two boys briefly touched it. The boys spent almost 90 percent of their time playing with cars, which the girls barely touched. There was no link between the parents’ view on which toys were more appropriate for boys or girls, and the children’s choice. Dr Brenda Todd said: “Children of this age are already exposed to much socialization. Boys may be given ‘toys that go’ while girls get toys they can care for, which may help shape their preference. But these findings agree with the former idea that children show natural interests in particular kinds of toys. There could be a biological basis for their choices. Males through evolution have been adapted to prefer moving objects, probably through hunting instincts（本能）, while girls prefer warmer colors such as pink, the color of a newborn baby.” 1.Baby boys and girls have different toy preferences probably because . A．baby boys are much more active B．baby girls like bright colors more C．their parents treat them differently D．there is a natural difference between them 2.What can we infer from Paragraph 3 ? A．Nine-month-old baby boys don’t play with dolls at all. B．Two-year-old baby girls sometimes play with cars and balls. C．The older the babies are, the more obvious their preference is. D．Parents should teach their babies to share each other’s toys. 3.What conclusion did Dr. Brenda Todd draw from the results of the study? A．Adults purposely influence their babies preference. B．Babies’ preference isn’t affected by social surroundings. C．Baby boys preferring to moving toys will be good at hunting. D．Baby girls preferring warmer colors will be warm-hearted. 4.We may read this article in a section of a newspaper. A．science B．health C. education D．entertainment

Most American students go to traditional public schools．There are about 88, 000 public schools, all over the US．Some students attend about 3000 independent public schools called charter schools． Charter schools are self-governing．Private companies operate some charter schools．They are similar in some ways to traditional public schools．They receive tax money just as other public schools do．Charter schools must prove to local or state governments that their students are learning．These governments provide the schools with the agreement called a charter that permits them to operate． Charter schools are different because they do not have to obey most laws governing traditional public schools．Local, state, or federal governments cannot tell them what to teach．Each school can choose its own goals and decide the ways it wants to reach them．Class size is usually smaller than in traditional public schools． The Bush Administration strongly supports charter schools as a way to re-organize public schools that are failing to educate students．But some education agencies and unions oppose charter schools．One teachers' union has just made public the results of the first national study comparing the progress of students in traditional schools and charter schools． The American Federation of Teachers criticized the government's delay in releasing the results of the study, which is called the National Assessment of Educational Progress．Union education experts say the study shows that charter school students performed worse on math and reading tests than students in regular public schools． Some experts say the study is not a fair look at charter schools because students in those schools have more problems than students in traditional schools．Other education experts say the study results should make charter school officials demand improved student progress． 1.If a private company wants to operate a charter school, it must______． A．try new methods of teaching B．prove its management ability C．obey the local and state laws D．get the government's permission 2.What's the government's attitude toward charter schools?

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The Winner’s Guide to Success How do successful people think? What helps them to make success? To find out the answers, an American scholar recently visited some of the most successful people in America. 1 Be responsible for yourself Sometimes you may want to blame others for your failure to get ahead. 2 You’re saying, “You have more control over my life than I do.” Live life “on purpose” Almost all successful people live life “on purpose”— they are doing what they believe they should and want to do. When you live your life on purpose, you’ll try your best to do your job or study as well as you can. You love what you do and you can find pleasure in what you do. Write a plan It is very difficult trying to get what you want without a good plan. 3 A good plan is like a map to you. Without this “map”, you may waste your time, money and also your energy; while with the “map” you’ll enjoy the “trip” and get what you want in the shortest possible time. Be willing to pay the price Nothing great is easy to get. So you must be ready to work hard — even harder than you have ever done. If you are not willing to pay the price, you won’t get anything valuable. Never give up 4 When you are doing something, you must tell yourself again and again: Giving up is worse than failure because failure can be the mother of success, but giving up means the death of hope. 5 Once an American writer was writing a novel. He could not have a good ending for his book until one night when he had a very good idea. He was so excited that he made a phone call to one of his best friends. “I’ve got a perfect idea,” he said, “I’ll put it down later and show it to you.” But he never did, because he died that night. His book was left without a perfect ending. So remember, do what you can right away. Never delay at all. A. It is just like trying to drive through strange roads to a city far away. B. It seems to us that everyone knows this. But it is easier said than done. C. Some people achieve success much later in life because they fail to realize earlier the importance of hard work. D. In fact, when you say someone or something outside of yourself is stopping you from making success, you’re giving away your own power. E. Someone else’s opinion of you doesn’t have to become your reality. F. Don’t delay G. Here are some keys to success that they give.
