Americans can travel almost anywhere they choose. But to protect (保護) its people, the government lists a few dangerous places where Americans cannot go. These places are unfriendly countries or countries at war. There, the travelers might not be safe. These countries are listed in a small book called a passport (護照).
This passport is for the safety of its traveling people. It is also a government’s pledge (保證) that the people will follow the rules of the host country. To receive a passport from the government, a traveler must show that he is an American citizen (公民). An American cannot go abroad without a passport. Only the close countries such as Canada and Mexico do not ask for passports. The traveler’s picture is inside the passport. Children traveling with their parents are also in one parent’s book.

What is your favorite colour? Do you like yellow, orange, red? If you do, you must be an optimist (樂觀者), a leader or an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. Do you prefer grey and blue? Then you are probably quiet, shy and you would rather follow than lead. If you love green, you are strong-minded and determined(有決心的). You wish to succeed and want other people to see you are successful. At least this is what psychologists(心理學家)tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of colour preference (愛好), and the effect that colours have on human beings(人類).They tell us that we don’t choose our favorite colour as we grow up. If you happen to love brown, you did so as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.
A yellow room makes us feel more cheerful and comfortable than a dark green one, and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing(壓抑的). Light and bright colours make people not only happier but also more active. It is a fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or dark grey .
Remember, then, that if you feel low, you can always brighten your day or your life with a new shirt or a few colourful things. Remember also that you will know your friends and your enemies better when you find out what colours they like and dislike. And don’t forget that anyone can guess a lot about your character when you choose a piece of handkerchief or a lampshade(燈罩).
小題1:According to this passage, ________. 
A．one can choose his colour preference
B．one is born with his colour preference
C．one’s colour preference is changeable
D．one has to choose his favourite colour as he can see clearly
小題2:If one enjoys life, one is sure to prefer________.
A．red to yellow B．blue to orange
C．red to grey D．blue to yellow
小題3:The main idea of this passage is ________.
A．one’s color preference show one’s character
B．you can brighten your life with wonderful colours
C．psychologists have been studying the meaning of colour preference
D．one’s color preference has something to do with his character and colours have effects on human beings
小題4:The writer believes that in realizing the four modernizations(四個現(xiàn)代化) of our country, we need more people who love ________.
A．yellowB．redC．greenD．black
小題5:“I’m feeling black.” means “________ ”.
A．I am feeling well.B．I am very happy.

Do you want to know anything about ma staying in America? Well, Let me tell you the truth, it is really an eye-opening experience to study here.
In China, I had English classes five times a week since the fifth grade. However didn’t know textbook English was very different from everyday English until I came to Hotchkiss School, Connecticut.
When I first studied English, I was told to say，“I am fine” when people say “How are you?”But in the US, I found that people say,” I am good” or “I am tired.”

“I believe you’re the right person to write an advice column (專欄) for the students called Dear Amy!” Jenny, editor of the school newspaper, said to Andy, who finally agreed to accept the job if Jenny promised not to tell it to anyone else.
At first it wasn’t too bad. Most of the letters he received were interesting and quite easy to answer. Then came a letter from a person named Joe.
“Dear Amy,” it began, “I’m in real trouble. I’ve wanted to be a songwriter all my life, but my parents won’t even let me take music lessons. I have a guitar, but they both get angry if I play. I’ve tried explaining, but they won’t listen. I feel sad. Should I run away from home? Maybe that will make my parents agree.” The letter signed “Joe”.
Andy thought about this letter for a long time. Should he advise someone to run away from home? Probably not. But didn’t Joe have a right to be a songwriter if he wanted to? Andy thought hard, but couldn’t think out a good answer. Andy couldn’t sleep. He just worried about poor Joe.
At a bar a few days later, Eleanor, a girl in Andy’s math class, sat down next to him and asked, “ What’s wrong with you? You look a little worried.”
“I guess I do,” said Andy.
“If you got an problem, why don’t you try writing to Dear Amy about it?” asked Eleanor.
Andy sighed; but she continued, “in fact, I guess Dear Amy is rather busy with other problems. She still hasn’t answered the phony letter I wrote her last week. You’d better read it – it may even make the most hard-hearted person cry! It was supposed to be from a songwriter named Joe.”
小題1:

小題2:It’s clear “Dear Amy” ______.
A．helps students who want to run away from homeB．a(chǎn)nswers letters from the students
C．writes songs for the studentsD．meets readers at a bar
