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 organization 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.There are _____ expressions related to cold that are mentioned in the passage.
A. 3 B. 4 C. 6 D. 7
2.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
3.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
4.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
5.The topic of this passage is about _________.
A. the relationship between cold and our body

The American book Who Moved My Cheese has been a bestseller all over the world. It teaches people how to face changes in their lives. Now its author Spence Johnson has written a book just for teens. The book tells us that when facing change in our lives, like a new school or new friends, don't be afraid. Instead, use this change to make a better life. The book gives an example of a change at school. A school is changing from having two terms to three terms because there are too many students.
Several teens are talking about this. Most of them are unhappy and worried. But Chris is not. He laughs and tells a story about two mice, two “little people” and some cheese.
The four are in a maze looking for the cheese. Here, cheese means something important in life, like moving to a new class or getting into college. But they find the cheese is gone. The mice realize that they can’t change what has happened and have to find more cheese. This means finding different dreams. The little people, however, can’t do this. They are afraid of change so they find no cheese.
After Chris finishes the story, the friends understand one thing: to get more cheese, move in a new direction quickly. His friends understand how this can be used in the changes all teens face, such as doing well at school or having good relationships or just feeling good about yourself.
1.The book Who Moved My Cheese is __________.
A. written all over the world B. read across the world
C. sold only in America D. loved only by teens
2.What does the text mainly discuss?
A. Never change in our life. B. Change whenever you like .
C. Change with the changes. D. Pay attention to the changes,
3. The underline word “four”（paragraph 3） refers to __________.
A. mice and little people B. students
C. cheese D. readers
4. In our lives, we should learn from __________.
A. mice B. little people C. Chris D. Spence Johnson

An entire industry has been built upon the assumption that image is everything, but when it comes to it, an appealing image is not enough．If there is no substance（事实）behind the image, the product, service or person will fail eventually．
First of all, one should consider how important image is in the selling of products and services．Advertising agencies have raised the art of creating an image to a state of near perfection．Public concept of that product or service is certainly managed by the images created by the advertising agencies．But if the product or service does not live up to the image that was created, the customer will be very dissatisfied and possibly ask for their money back．For example, the Arthur Andersen accounting firm had spent decades building up an image of trustworthiness．But the recent scandal（丑闻）showed that behind that image, it cheated in business practices．Despite the previous positive image, the firm is being accused of criminal actions and it will probably not survive as a business unit．Although the image had been nearly perfect, the reality, behind the image has led to the downfall of the word-famous accounting firm．
Similarly, personal advisers can build up a public image for politicians and movie stars．Putting out positive news releases, making sure that only the best photographs are published, and ensuring that the person is seen in all the right places can build up a very positive image in the view of the general commons．But once again, history is filled with examples of both politicians and movie stars that fell from grace like the story of the Hollywood actor giving in to the pressures of fame and fortune．With people, just as with products and services, image is certainly important, but without positive substance behind the image, failure is close．
To summarize, it is clear that an appealing image is extremely important to success, whether that image is related to selling a product or service or to the “selling” of a person．But image is only half of the equation（等式）．What lies behind that image is every bit as important as the image itself—the person or product must deliver truth on that image or there is little chance for long-term success．
1.The down fall of the Arthur Andersen accounting firm is due to ________．
A．its previous images． B．its dishonesty in business．
C．its bad management． D．its poor service．
2.Why did some famous people fall from grace?
A．They failed to live up to their images．
B．Their images were not well built up．
C．They felt much pressure from the public．
D．They paid little attention to fame and fortune．
3.The structure of the passage is _________．
A：Argument P：Point C．Conclusion
4.The author tries to argue that ________．
A．image creates everything．
B．image is the key to success．
C．truth is unlikely ever to be equaled．
D．truth and image are equally important．
