People  usually  talk  about  two  groups  of  colours: warm  colours  and  cool  colours.  Scientists  think  that  there  are  also  two  kinds  of  people: people  who  prefer  warm  colours  and  people  who  prefer  cool  colours. The  warm  colours  are  red , orange  and  yellow.  Where  there  are  warm  colours  and  a  lot  of  lights , people  usually  want  to  be  active.  People  think  that  red , for  example , is  exciting . Sociable  people , those  who  like  to  be  with  others , like  red . Scientists  also  find  that  warm  colours  can  produce  a  comfortable  feeling  and  that  time  seems to pass quickly  in  a  room  with  warm  colours  than  with  cool  colours . So  a  warm  colour , such as red or orange , is a good choice for a living  room or restaurant.

"Color,color,color!"are the words of artist Eric Carle.

Eric is like the king in the world of children's books.He has written over 70children's books.His most famous book,The Very Hungry Caterpillar,is common on children's bookshelves all over the world.What most people don't know is that Eric also makes art for adults,which is called"ArtArt".People didn't know about it,because he didn't show it to the public until he was 84years old!

Like Eric's children's books,his"ArtArt"is full of bright and clear color.He says that he loves color so much because he missed it during the war in Germany.Eric was born in New York in 1929,but moved to Germany with his family when he was 6.When he was 10,World War II began.He noticed that all the houses and buildings in his town were painted gray,brown or dark green.It was a sad time,and it seemed like there was no color anywhere.

At the end of the war,"when color came back",Eric explains,"I just loved it so much.I keep saying that I wish our eyes could see more color.Color is a very important part of my work."

That's true.Eric paints bright colors on paper,cuts out shapes,and then glues them onto another piece of paper.This method is called collage.In fact,it is what led Eric to his"ArtArt".

Every body talks about the weather.It's the most popular topic of conversation(谈话).For example,people may say to each other"Isn't it a nice day?""Do you think it is going to rain??"or"I think it is going to snow."(1)    

Many people think they can tell what the weather is going to be like.(2)    .One man may say,"Do you see how cloudy it is in the east?It's going to rain tomorrow."But anther man may say,"Yes,it's cloudy in the east,so we are going to have a fine day tomorrow."

(3)    When a farmer needs water,he looks for something to tell him it is going to rain,he won't believe other things.When people have a picnic,but it begins to rain,they will be so sure about something that shows the weather is going to be fine very quickly(4)    

Almost everyone listens to what the weatherman says.But he does not tell us what we want.and sometimes he makes a mistake.(5)    

A.People often hope for the weather they want.

B.However,he still probably comes closer to being right than most people.

C.But they don't always agree with each other.

D.They won't believe that will finish their lunch in the rain.

E.All these are the common ways to start a conversation.

The summer vacation is a time to enjoy a change from the school year.It's a good chance to work on different activities that you don't have much time to do during the rest of the year.

We asked about 2,000 people what they would do during the summer vacation.Most of the survey takersagreed that the summer vacation was a break from homework and they could relax.

Alexis said,"At school,I'm really tired,so during the summer vacation I can read books and do many ou tdoor activities."

Amy is in high school.After school,she sometimes works in a café.She told us,"It's a chance to relax after a hard school year﹣sleep more,and see my friends more."

We also asked them if they would be too busy or kind of bored.About half(52%)of the survey﹣takers said they would be busy during the summer vacation but still have time to relax.And thatis exactly how it should be.

But not everyone said their summer vacation would be the right balance(平衡)between being busy and relaxing.Many thought that they would be too bored.

How bored or busy people feel during the summer vacation depends on how old they are.Survey﹣takers in their early teens were likely(可能的)to be bored.Among them,40% said they would be bored and only 10% thought they would be too busy.
