Many people take it for granted that black is a color of bad things while white should always mean something good．This may be because, in their opinion, black is related to darkness and white to purity（纯洁）．

However, that is not always the case．Did you know that the same colour may mean differently in different places of the world?

In the English-speaking world, black is the colour of mourning（哀悼）．People wear black clothes at the funeral．Red is concerned with danger or bloodshed (流血)．Yellow is the word for fear．If you are afraid, you are yellow．Yet none of these sayings is true outside the English-speaking world．In China and Korea white is the colour of mourning．In Russia, China and some other countries, red stands for beauty, life and excellence．In Italy and Germany, you are yellow with anger, not with fear．

Even within the English-speaking area it is not difficult to find colour contradictions (矛盾)．A redcap in the United States is a porter in a railway station．In Britain, however, a redcap is a military policeman．Both names are logical because both men wear red caps．Similarly, the British term for an American white collar worker is sometimes called a black-coated worker．

One does not have to cross an area to find color differences．Would you rather be red-blooded? If we go back to the origin, we find that both terms are logical as both names suggest．The expression “blueblood” comes from Spain, where some noble（贵族）families proudly said that they had “blue blood”．But then why “blue” blood? Because they were fair-skinned, and it is only natural that their blood vessels (血管) stood out appearing blue．

1.Yellow is concerned with anger in ______.

A．Russia       B．Britain       C．Germany D．China

2. Both Britain and America would probably agree that ______.

A．black is the color of mourning   B．a black-coated worker is employed in an office

C．red stands for beauty and excellence    D．a redcap is a porter in a station

3.The best title for this passage is ______.

A．The Origin of Blue Blood          B．The Development of the Use of Colors

C．Colors that Carry Bad Meanings       D．The Meaning Concerned With Certain Colors

4.When some Spanish called themselves “blueblood”, they actually meant ______.

A．they had heart trouble and their faces looked blue    B．they came from a noble family

C．they had blue blood in their vessels               D．they were fair-skinned

As you move around your home, take a good look at the things you have. It is likely that your living room will have a television set and a video, and your kitchen a washing machine and a microwave oven. Your bedroom drawers will be filled with almost three times as many clothes as you need. You almost certainly own a car and possibly a home computer, holiday abroad at least once a year and eat out at least once a week.

Now, perhaps, more than ever before, people are wondering what life is all about, and what it is for. Seeking material success is beginning to trouble large numbers of people around the world. They feel that the long hours work culture to make more money is eating up their lives, leaving them very little time or energy for family or pastimes. Many are turning to other ways of living and downshifting is one of them. Six percent of workers in Britain took the decision to downshift last year.

One couple who downshifted is Daniel and Liz. They used to work in central London. He was a newspaper reporter and she used to work for an international bank. They would go to work by train every day from their large house in the suburbs, leaving their two children with a nanny. Most evenings Daniel wouldn’t get home until eight or nine o’clock and nearly twice a month he would have to fly to New York for meetings. They both earned a large amount of money but began to feel that life was passing them by.

Nowadays, they run a farm in the mountains of Wales. “I always wanted to have a farm then,” says Daniel, “and we took almost a year to make the decision to downshift. It’s taken some getting used to, but it’s been worth it. We have to think twice now about spending money on car repairs and we no longer have any holidays. However, I think it’s made us stronger as a family, and the children are a lot happier.

Liz, however, is not quite sure. “I used to enjoy my job, even though it was hard work and long hours. I’m not really a country girl, but I suppose I’m gradually getting used to looking after the animals. One thing I do like, though, is being able to see more of my children. My advice for other people wanting to do the same is not to think about it too much or you might not do it at all.”

1.The passage tells us that 　　　　　 　　 .

A. people seldom work long hours to make money

B. people hardly buy more things than necessary

C. people are sure everything they own is in the right place

D. people realize there is more to life than just making money

2.Daniel and Liz both agree that the move to the farm ____.

A. was easy to organize　　 B. has improved family life

C. was extremely expensive　　 D. has been a total success

3.What does the author mean by saying “the long hours work culture to make more money is eating up their lives” in the second paragraph?

A. People work long hours to earn their living.

B. To make more money through hard work is the aim of people’s life.

C. Long hours of hard work occupy too much of people’s life.

D. People spent too much time and money eating meals.
