點(diǎn)評(píng)：

不同顏色往往可以代表不同的心情。根據(jù)不同顏色的特點(diǎn)以及給人留下的感覺，顏色的選擇在日常生活中往往也起著一定的作用。本文以其中的一些顏色為例作了相關(guān)的解釋說明，是一篇知識(shí)性很強(qiáng)的文章。

答案簡析：

1.B.根據(jù)上文的strong feeling可知anger最合乎文意。

2.C.下文所列舉的例子STOP signs和 fire engines都屬于危險(xiǎn)信號(hào)，故選擇danger.

3.B.根據(jù)常識(shí)，黃色應(yīng)是秋天樹葉的顏色，故應(yīng)選leaves.

4.A.下文提到人們把黃色和幸福聯(lián)系起來，說明黃色是一個(gè)充滿生機(jī)的顏色，故選lively.

5.C.下文提到黃色是令人愉快的顏色，根據(jù)常識(shí)太陽光的顏色是黃色，故選sunlight.

6.B.綠色是春季里草的顏色，故選spring.

后面往往接某種語言作賓語；say后面常接說話的內(nèi)容；tell的賓語一般是人；talk about sth.意為談?wù)撃呈挛?。故C為正確選項(xiàng)。

8.B.根據(jù)上文對(duì)yellow的解釋。說明yellow也屬于warm color.

9.C.與下文喜歡冷色調(diào)的人相對(duì)應(yīng)，再根據(jù)上文對(duì)各種暖色調(diào)的選擇，active合乎文意為正確選項(xiàng)。

相當(dāng)于other people意為“別的人”。another指“另一個(gè)”。other one不可單獨(dú)使用，the other one指“另外的一個(gè)”。

11.A.四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中只有black可歸納到冷色調(diào)當(dāng)中去。

around意為“到處走動(dòng)”;go off 意為“離開，爆炸”;go along意為“前進(jìn)，進(jìn)行”;go by意為“走過，流逝”。根據(jù)文意，應(yīng)選go by.

根據(jù)上文，暖色調(diào)的環(huán)境下時(shí)間似乎過得更慢，說明暖色調(diào)是用來裝飾居室和飯館的好方法，故選擇way.

14.C.比較四個(gè)場所只有飯館適合使用暖色調(diào)。

15.B.與暖色調(diào)相對(duì)立，冷色調(diào)適用于辦公室，以使人感覺時(shí)間過得比較快。
