In many cultures white is often associated with something positive. A white-collar job, for instance, is the kind of job many people look for, working with your brain and not your hands.

White has a clean and pure image. That is why doctors, dentists, and nurses usually wear white uniforms. Babies are dressed in white at baptisms(洗礼)and brides wear white wedding gowns at weddings. White in these cases is the symbol of innocence or purity.

Sometimes white is used in expressions that are not good. “Whitewash” is one such expression. At first, “whitewash” meant to paint over something with white paint to make it look better. However, it means something different today: to hide or to cover up mistakes or failures.

A “white elephant” is another example of white used in a negative way. In ancient Thailand, a white elephant was regarded as a sacred animal, but it was very expensive to keep. The kings of those days presented a white elephant to the people they wanted to ruin. Once they received this holy, royal animal as a gift, they were not allowed to sell or kill it. Today, a “white elephant” means something that is big, useless, and unwanted. In America, when people want to get rid of their furniture or clothes, they often have a “white elephant sale”.

1.The text is mainly about________.

A.the meanings of white in English culture

B.the history of some English idioms

C.some interesting customs in English culture

D.some useful English words and expressions

A.White-wash.

B.White-collar.

B.A bride wears a white wedding gown.

C.A man whitewashes his crime.

D.A girl finds a white collar job.

A.a white-elephant sale is useful to the poor

B.the white color is important in our daily life

C.a white-collar job used to be easy to get

D.expressions with white have different meanings

5.The author develops the text mainly by ______.

The common cold is the world's most widespread illness, which is plagues (瘟疫) that flesh receives. The most widespread fallacy (谬误) of all is that colds are caused by cold. They are not. They are caused by viruses passing on from person to person. You catch a cold by coming into contact, directly or indirectly, with someone who already has one.

If cold causes colds, it would be reasonable to expect the Eskimos to suffer from them forever. But they do not. And in isolated arctic regions explorers have reported being free from colds until coming into contact again with infected people from the outside world by way of packages and mail dropped from airplanes.

  During the First World War soldiers who spent long periods in the trenches (战壕) cold and wet, showed no increased tendency to catch colds. In the Second World War prisoners at the notorious Auschwitz concentration camp (奥斯维辛集中营), naked and starving, were astonished to find that they seldom had colds.

  At the Common Cold Research Unit in England, volunteers took part in experiments in which they gave themselves to the discomforts of being cold and wet for long stretches of time. After taking hot baths, they put on bathing suits, allowed themselves to be dipped with cold water, and then stood about dripping wet in drafty room. Some wore wet socks all day while others exercised in the rain until close to exhaustion. Not one of the volunteers came down with a cold unless a cold virus was actually dropped in his nose.

  If, then, cold and wet have nothing to do with catching colds, why are they more frequent in the winter? Despite the most pains-taking research, no one has yet found the answer. One explanation offered by scientists is that people tend to stay together indoors more in cold weather than at other times, and this makes it easier for cold viruses to be passed on.

  No one has yet found a cure for the cold. There are drugs and pain-killer pills such as aspirin, but all they do is relieve the symptoms.

1.How many examples are offered by the writer to support his argument?

A.4

B.5

C.6

D.3

2.Which of the following does not agree with the chosen passage?

A.The Eskimos do not suffer from colds all the time.

B.Colds are not caused by cold.

C.People suffer from colds just because they like to stay indoors.

D.A person may catch a cold by touching someone who already has one.

3.Arctic explorers may catch colds when _______.

A.they are working in the isolated arctic regions

B.they are writing reports in terribly cold weather

C.they are free from work in the isolated arctic regions

D.they are coming into touch again with the outside world

4.Volunteers taking part in the experiments in the Common Cold Research Unit _______.

A.suffered a lot

B.never caught colds

C.often caught colds

D.became very strong

5.The passage mainly discusses _______.

A.the experiments on the common colds

B.the fallacy about the common cold

C.the reason and the way people catch colds

D.the continued spread of common colds
