16、 in advance.BMinutes after the last movie ended yesterday at the Plaza Theater, employees were busy sweeping up popcorns and gathering coke cups. It was a scene that had been repeated many times in the theaters 75-year history. This time, however, the cleanup was a little different. As one group of

17、workers carried out the rubbish, another group began removing seats and other theater equipment in preparation for the buildings end.The film classic The Last Picture Show was the last movie shown in the old theater. Though the movie is 30 years old, most of the 250 seats were filled with teary-eyed

18、 audience wanting to say good-bye to the old building. Theater owner Ed Bradford said he chose the movie because it seemed appropriate. The movie is set in a small town where the only movie theater is preparing to close down.Bradford said that large modern theaters in the city made it impossible for

19、 the Plaza to compete. He added that the theaters location(位置) was also a reason. “This used to be the center of town,” he said. “Now the area is mostly office buildings and warehouses.”Last week some city officials suggested the city might be interested in turning the old theater into a museum and

20、public meeting place. However, these plans were abandoned because of financial problems. Bradford sold the building and land to a local development firm, which plans to build a shopping complex on the land where the theater is located.The theater audience said good-bye as Bradford locked the doors f

24、ping center. CThe fact that blind people can see things using other parts of their bodies apart from their eyes may help us to understand our feelings about color. If they can sense color differences, then perhaps we, too, are affected (影響) by color without knowing it. Salesmen have discovered by ex

25、perience over a long period of time that sugar sells badly in green wrappings (包裝), that blue foods are considered not agreeable to the taste ,and that cosmetics (化妝品) should never be packed in brown. These discoveries have grown into a whole subject of color psychology (心理學(xué)). Some of our preference

26、s (偏愛) are clearly psychological. Dark blue is the color of the night sky and therefore connected with calm, while yellow is a day color connected with energy and encouragement. Experiments have shown that colors, partly because they are connected with psychology, also have a direct effect on people

27、s mind. People in bright red surroundings (環(huán)境) show an increase in breathing speed, heartbeat and blood pressure. Red is exciting. Pure blue has exactly the opposite effect; it is a calming color. Being exciting, red was chosen as the signal for danger, but a closer study shows that a bright yellow

28、can produce a more basic state of alarm, so fire engines in some advanced areas are now rushing around in bright yellow colors that stop buses, trucks and cars.28. The passage tells us that salesmen have _.A. found out that colors affect sales B. discovered the relationship between color and psychol

Colors and Sales C. The Blind and Colors D. Preferences for ColorsDA study showed that the experiences children have in th

31、eir first few years are important. These experiences affect the development of the brain. When children receive more attention, they often have higher IQs. Babies receive information when they see, hear and feel things, which makes connections between different parts of the brain. There are a hundre

32、d trillion (萬億) connections in the brain of a three-year-old child.Researcher Judit Gervain tested how good newborns are at distinguishing different sound patterns. Her researchers produced images of the brains of babies as they heard different sound patterns. For example, one order was mu-ba-ba. Th

33、is is the pattern “A-B-B. Another order was mu-ba-ge. This is the pattern “A-B-C”. The images showed that the part of the brain responsible for speech was more active during the “A-B-B” pattern. This shows that babies can tell the difference between different patterns. They also were sensitive to wh

34、ere it occurred in the order.Gervain is excited by these findings because the order of sounds is the building block of words and grammar. “Position is key to language, she says. “If something is at the beginning or at the end, it makes a big difference: John caught the bear. is very different from T

35、he bear caught John. ”Researchers led by scientist Patricia Kuhl have found that language delivered by televisions, audio books, the Internet, or smartphonesno matter how educationaldoesnt appear to be enough for childrens brain development. They carried out a study of nine-month-old American babies

36、. They expected the first group whod watched videos in Chinese to show the same kind of learning as the second group who were brought face-to-face with the same sounds. Instead they found a huge difference. The babies in the second group were able to distinguish between similar Chinese sounds as wel

37、l as native listeners. But the other babies regardless of whether they had watched the video or listened to the audiolearned nothing.32. What makes connections in a babys brain?A. Having a higher IQ. B. Experiencing new information.C. The babys early age.D. The connection with other babies.33. What

38、did Judit Gervain and her team find in the experiment?A. Word order is relevant to meaning. B. A certain brain region processes language.C. Babies identify different sound patterns.D. Babies can well understand different words.34. What does the underlined sentence mean in Paragraph 3?A. Words have d

39、ifferent sounds. B. Different orders have different meanings.C. Grammar is important in learning languages. D. Different languages have different grammar.35. What is the main conclusion from the study led by Patricia Kuhl?A. Babies shouldnt watch a lot of television.B. Foreign languages are benefici
