Question

    Colors are very important in our life.We can see different colors in different places.Sometimes colors are called warm，cold or neutral(中性的)colors.Red and yellow are warm colors because they make us feel warmer.They also make the walls seem nearer to us than they really are.Blue and black are cold colors.They can give us different feelings.We feel cooler and the walls seem to be farther away.Neutral colors don't affect our feelings.Brown and gray are both neutral，but they may also affect our feelings when we put them into warm or cold colors.

It's important to choose the colors we want.Red may be very good for a restaurant，but it could be wrong for an art gallery，because people want to see the pictures，not the walls behind.White can make a small room look bigger.If your room is very small，you can paint the walls white.

Sometimes the same color expresses different feelings.For example，people wear white clothes when their relatives die in the countryside in China.But in many places the couple wear white clothes on the wedding days.

【解析】

本文讲述了颜色和感觉。颜色有时被称为暖色调、冷色调或中性颜色。红色和黄色是暖色，因为它们使人们感到温暖。蓝色和黑色是冷色，人们感到凉爽，墙壁似乎离人们更远了。中性色不会影响人们的感觉。棕色和灰色都是中性的，但当人们把它们变成暖色或冷色时，它们也会影响人们的感觉。

1.细节理解题。根据“Blue and black are cold colors.”可知蓝色和黑色是冷色调，故选C。

2.推理判断题。根据“…We feel cooler and the walls seem to be farther away.”可知是冷色调，而黄色不是冷色调，所以选项A错误；根据“…because they make us feel warmer.”可知红色能让我们感到温暖，所以选项B正确；根据“…but they may also affect our feelings when we put them into warm or cold colors.”可知把它们变成暖色或冷色时，它们也会影响我们的感觉，所以选项C错误；根据“…We feel cooler and the walls seem to be farther away.”可知黑色是让墙壁感觉到远，所以选项D错误，故选B。

3.推理判断题。根据“…because they make us feel warmer.They also make the walls seem nearer to us than they really are.”可知暖色调可以让房间更温暖，故选D。

4.细节理解题。根据“people wear white clothes when their relatives die in the countryside in China.”可知当中国农村有亲戚死亡时，人们穿白色的衣服，故选C。

5.最佳标题。根据第一段“Colors are very important in our life.We can see different colors in different places.…but they may also affect our feelings when we put them into warm or cold colors.”可知本文讲述了颜色和人们不同的感觉，故选A。
