20.Why is pink or purple a color for girls and blue or brown for boys?
The answer depends (69 )largely (large) on cultural values as well as personal experiences.To the Egyptians,green was a color (70)thatrepresented the hope and joy of spring,while for Muslims,it means heaven.Red is a symbol of good luck in many cultures.During the Spring Festival in China,children(71)are given   (give) 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 (72)against   evils(灾祸).
People's (73)choice   (choose) of colors is also influenced by their bodies'reactions toward them.Green is said to be (74 )the    most restful color.It has the ability to reduce pain and relax people both mentally (75)and    physically.People( 76 )who work  (work) in green environment 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.And many commercial websites will have a red"Buy Now"button because red is a color that (77)easily   (easy) catches a person's eye.
Blue is another calming color.Unlike red,blue is believed to cause people to lose appetite.So (78 )if    you want to eat less,some suggest that eating from blue plates can help.

分析 本文是一篇说明文.文章就不同文化中对于颜色含义的理解以及颜色在商业、生活中的作用展开了说明.

解答 69.largely;考查副词,此处用副词在句中作状语,修饰动词短语depend on.
70.that;考查关系代词,这是一个定语从句,关系代词that在句中指代先行词 a color 作从句的主语.
71.are given;考查动词的语态,主语children与动词give是动宾关系,故用被动语态.
72.against;考查固定搭配,protect…against是固定搭配,意为"保护…是不受…".
73.choice;考查词性转换,名词所有格People's 后面跟名词形式.
74.the;考查定冠词,最高级前面要用定冠词the.
75.and;考查连词,分析句意为"使人在精神上和身体上得到放松",故用and表示并列.
76.who work;考查定语从句,此处用who work与后面的成分构成一个定语从句,修饰前面的people,关系代词who作从句的主语.
77.easily;考查副词,此处用副词形式easily作状语修饰动词 catches.
78.if;考查连词,分析句意为"因此,如果你想吃的少一点,用蓝色的盘子会对你有帮助",故用if引导一个条件状语从句.

点评 先阅读短文,了解大意,再按照句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求,填入一个适当的词或使用括号中词语的正确形式填空,注意一些固定短语,和时态变化.

9.We always convince ourselves that life will be better after we get married,have a baby,than another.Then we are disappointed that the kids aren't old enough and we'll be more content when they are.After that we're frustrated that we have teenagers to deal with.We will certainly be happy when they are out of that stage.
We always tell ourselves that our life will be complete when our spouse (配偶) gets his or her act together,when we get a nice car,and are able to go on a nice vocation and when we retire.The truth is:there's no better time than right now.If not now,when?Our life will always be filled with challenges.It's best to admit this to ourselves and decide to be happy anyway.
One of my favorite quotes comes from Alfred Souza.He said."For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin--real life.But there were always some obstacles in the way,something to be gotten through first,some unfinished business,time still to be served,a debt to be paid.Then life would begin.At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life."This perspective has helped me to see that there is no way to happiness.Happiness is the way.So do not let it slip from you now.
And remember that time waits for no one.So stop waiting until you finish school,until you go back to school; until you get married,until you get divorced; until you have kids; until you retire; until you get a new car or home; until spring; until you are born again to decide that there is no better time than right now to be happy…
Happiness is a journey,not a destination.So,work like you don't need money,love like you've never been hurt,and dance like no one's watching.
24.Which is the best title for the passage?D
A.Happiness Is a Destination
B.Our Life Will Be Filled with Challenges.
C.Life Will Be Better
D.Happiness Is a Journey
25.The author uses the second paragraph toA
A.give advice
B.offer an explanation
C.make a comment
D.draw a conclusion
26.By reading Alfred Souza's words,we knowB.
A.his life was always filled with too many obstacles for him to face
B.the obstacles in life helped him to see what happiness is
C.he had to face more obstacles than anyone else
D.he realized that there is no way to happiness
27.What does the writer want to tell us?B
A.Will is power,so do what you want to do.
B.Time and tide waits for no man,so treasure the present.
C.A thousand words will not leave so deep an impression as one deed.
D.So said,so done,so do what you said.
