Part 3 Reading and Writing (第三部分 读写)
Ⅵ.Reading comprehension(阅读理解)
A．Choose the best answer(根据以下内容，选择最恰当的答案) （12分）
IN English, when someone is very angry we say this person “sees red”, like a bull goes wild after seeing a red cloth. Now it turns out that “seeing red” is not just an expression for angry people, but also a scientific fact.
Researchers at North Dakota State University in the US found that there is a connection between the color red and anger. Angry people really do “see red” where others don’t. And a preference for red over blue may even suggest a more hostile personality.v
The study includes a number of experiments. In the first, researchers asked a group of people which color they preferred, red or blue. Participants (参加者) then did personality tests. Results showed that those who chose red tended to be more hostile.
During a second test, participants looked at faded images that could be regarded either red or blue. Those who saw red scored 25 percent higher on hostility in the personality test.
“Hostile people have hostile thoughts; hostile thoughts are connected with the color red, and therefore hostile people see this color more frequently,” the researchers told The Independent.
Finally, the participants were told about imaginary situations in which they could take different actions. Results showed that in these situations, red-preferring people were more likely to show that they would harm another person than those who preferred blue.
“An important message from this research is that color can send psychological (心理的) meaning,” the researchers said.
Where does this connection between the color red and anger come from? Scientists said it might be a matter of evolution (进化). In ancient times, poisonous plants and insects could cause wounds and bleeding. So it may have become instinctive (本能的) for people to link the color red with danger and threats.
69. “Seeing red” is not just an expression for angry people ,but also a _______.
A) legend story B) funny joke
C) scientific fact D) useful suggestion
70. The underlined word “hostile” in the second paragraph means_____.
A) unfriendly B) popular
C) upset D) cheerful
71. During a second test, those who saw red scored 25 percent ______ on hostility in the personality test.
A) lower B) higher
C) more D) cheerful
72. In the final test, the participants were told about ______ in which they could take different actions.
A) faded images B) the true information
C) the same experience D) imaginary situations
73. Which of the following is NOT true about the study?
A) Participants did personality tests in the study.
B) Participants took three tests in the study.
C) Participants were tested on seven different colors.
D) Blue-preferring people were less likely to harm others.
74. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?
A) It tells us scientists’new findings.
B) It explains why red is connected to anger.
C) It tells us the importance if evolution.
D) It shows us the poor living conditions of ancient people.
