(2015·湖北八校第二次联考)Every people has their own way of saying things，their own special expressions.Many everyday American expressions are based on colors.

Red is a hot color.Americans often use it to express heat.They may say they are red hot about something unfair.When they are red hot they are very angry about something.The small hot tasting peppers found in many Mexican foods are called red hots for their color and their fiery taste.Fast loud music is popular with many people.They may say the music is red hot，especially the kind called Dixieland jazz.

Pink is a lighter kind of red.People sometimes say they are in the pink when they are in good health.The expression was first used in America at the beginning of the twentieth century.It probably comes from the fact that many babies are born with a nice pink color that shows that they are in good health.

Blue is a cool color. The traditional blues music in the United States is the opposite of red hot music.Blues is slow，sad and soulful.Duke Ellington and his orchestra recorded a famous song—MoodIndigo—about the deep blue color，indigo.In the words of the song：“You aren't blue till you've had that MoodIndigo.”Someone who is blue is very sad.

The color green is natural for trees and grass.But it is an unnatural color for humans.A person who has a sick feeling stomach may say she feels a little green.A passenger on a boat who is feeling very sick from high waves may look very green.

Sometimes a person may be upset because he does not have something as nice as a friend has，like a fast new car.That person may say he is green with envy.Some people are green with envy because a friend has more dollars or greenbacks.Dollars are called greenbacks because that is the color of the back side of the paper money.

The color black is used often in expressions.People describe a day in which everything goes wrong as a black day.The date of a major tragedy is remembered as a black day.A blacklist is illegal now.But at one time，some businesses refused to employ people who were on a blacklist for belonging to unpopular organizations.

语篇解读：人们都有自己特殊的表达方式。本文介绍了美国日常用语中与颜色相关的一些习语及含义。

10．Suppose a Mr. Brown says he is very happy because his three children are all in the

pink，this means all his children are ________.

A．lucky and wealthy B．gentle and modest C．fit and healthy D．creative and energetic

答案：C

11．When she got home and found nothing had been done by her husband, Jane was really ________.

A．red hot B．green C．blue D．black

A．unpopular organizations in the world B．people's response towards a black day C．the influence of the traditional blues D．more words about a color，such as brown

解析：推理判断题。文章开头说，美国的很多日常表达法都与颜色有关，然后介绍了与red、pink、blue、green、black这些颜色相关的习语，那么下文应该是继续介绍与其他颜色相关的习语。

答案：D

It probably comes from the fact that many babies are born with a nice pink color that shows that they are in good health.

粉红这一词汇可能来源于这样一个事实，许多婴儿出生时肤色红润这表明了他们身体状况良好。

that many babies...是同位语从句，解释fact的具体内容。

A

(2015·长沙模拟)The United States is one of the few countries in the

world that has an official day on which fathers are honored by their children.On the third Sunday in June，fathers all across the United States are given presents，treated to dinner or otherwise made to feel special.However，the idea for creating a day for children to honor their fathers began in Spokane，Washington.A woman by the name of Sonora Smart Dodd thought of the idea for Father's Day while listening to a Mother's Day sermon in 1909.Having been raised by her father，Henry Jackson Smart，after her mother died，Sonora wanted her father to know how special he was to her.

It was her father that made all the parental sacrifices and was，in the eyes of his daughter，a selfless and loving man.Sonora's father was born in June，so she chose to hold the first Father's Day celebration in Spokane，Washington on the 19th of June,1910.

In 1924 President Calvin Coolidge declared the third Sunday in June as Father's Day.Roses are the Father's Day flowers：red to be worn for a living father and white if the father has died.

When children can't visit their fathers or take them out to dinner，they send a greeting card.Traditionally，fathers prefer greeting cards that are not too sentimental.Most greeting cards are too special so fathers laugh when they open them.Some give heartfelt thanks for being there whenever the child needs Dad.
