Scientists, doctors and mental health professionals have been studying the connection between colors and mood for years. Many now believe that colors can not only bring about emotional reactions, but can also correct mood. Colors behave in three basic ways: active, passive and neutral (中和的).
Active colors are warm colors, including yellow, orange and red. These colors bring confidence. Warm colors can also bring cheerful attitudes. Yellows and golden colors work well in offices, kitchens and study areas. Reds heat up a room. Passive colors or cool colors make people calm, quiet and satisfied. Bedrooms, private areas and bathrooms are great places for blues and greens. Beige, gray and white are thought of as neutral colors. They help to put the focus on other colors or serve to tone down colors that might otherwise be overpowering on their own.
You can easily change the look or feel of a room by making good use of different colors. Mixing and matching colors is an excellent way to balance color and emotion, and provide a welcoming feel for guests.
To create a feeling of warmth and comfort in a room, use bright, warm colors like yellow, orange and red. These colors are good choices for rooms that appear cool due to limited sunlight. Yellow adds cheerfulness to dull rooms. You can add yellows to rooms which are not closely related to happy thoughts, such as kitchens and laundry room. In rooms where there's plenty of sunshine, cool colors can provide a calming environment. Sage greens and sky blues are perfect for bedrooms, playrooms and activity areas. Neutral colors, such as pale gray, white and beige, send a peaceful message to your brain. It's not a coincidence that most doctor's offices, coffee shops and mental health centers are decorated in neutrals.
To make your wall color choices better, pick out furniture that will provide a visual contrast. Cool colors make a room seem larger than it is and warm colors make rooms feel smaller.

Recently a group of second-graders visited our school library to work on a “holidays around the world” project. The children created pictures showing holiday customs and then created voice recordings explaining what they drew.    小题1:   Now imagine taking things one step further and creating Podcasts in a classroom setting.
The term Podcast refers to an audio recording, linked to the Web, that can be downloaded to a personal MP3 player. The word is created from broadcast and from iPod—the wildly popular MP3 player from Apple.
Using audio with students isn’t new, of course. Teachers have used audiobooks at listening centers and recorded student voice on tape or CD for many years.    小题2:   Podcasts, however, can reach a much wider audience in a time frame outside the school days. Booktalking, an old way of getting kids excited about books, gets a tech assistance with Podcasting. Students can do some booktalking themselves; book review Podcasts seem to be another natural way for students to share what they know, providing an alternative to the book report.
 小题3:  Teachers made audio Podcasts, including visuals or video clips for any content area instruction and review. Some teachers have begun to record themselves teaching important concepts; this creates an account of information online for kids to access when they’re stuck on a homework assignment.   小题4:   Imagine being a classroom teacher in September who can actually hear how his or her students were reading in June the school year before.
You don’t need an iPod to make a Podcast.    小题5:  While an MP3 player is a popular and useful gadget, your audience doesn’t need MP3 players to listen, either. Your students and their families can use the computer to play back what you’ve recorded.
A.Audio and video files can also function as assessment tools.
B.It is clearly showed in the incident that student-created voice recordings are effective.
C.Podcasting is of vital importance to the classroom setting.
D.Podcasting is used for various excellent reasons.
E. You can make a Podcast if you have a computer, a microphone, and some free software.
F. Podcasting needs a variety of devices.
G. Voice and music have been seen as the original media for teaching.

About ten percent of spending on primary and secondary education in the United States comes from the federal government. 小题1:________States have been required to show progress through yearly testing.
But states say testing tells only part of the story about efforts by schools and students to improve. So the Obama administration has eased the limits on states in measuring performance.
小题2:________This new measurement tool is called the Colorado Growth Model. The idea is to show academic growth, not just achievement on tests. It combines test scores, family income levels, school size, the ethnicity of the student and many other factors.
小题3:_______The graph shows a school’s average score on standardized tests as well as its academic growth.
On average, students enter sixth grade at WEST Denver Prep performing below grade level. 小题4:________.

根据短文内容,从下面的A-F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项,选项中有一项为多余选项。
A. Lack of stone images also reflects religious belief.
B. Art is a good means to know about people’s faith.
C. Artists express their feelings and opinions in their works.
D. People know more about our culture through learning art history.
E. Art is by all means relevant to history.
F. Art history provides information of different places and people.
小题1:____________________________
A study of art history might be a good way to learn more about a culture than it is possible to learn in general history classes. Most typical history courses concentrate on politics, economics and war. But art history focuses on much more than this because art reflects not only the political values of a people, but also religious beliefs, emotions, and psychology.
小题2:____________________________
In addition, information about the daily activities of our ancestors---or of people very different from our own---can be provided by art. In short, art expresses the essential qualities of a time and a place, and a study of it clearly offers us a deeper understanding than what can be found in most history books.
小题3:____________________________
In history books, objective information about the political life of a country is presented; that is, facts about politics are given, but opinions are not expressed. Art, on the other hand, is subjective: it reflects emotions and opinions. The great Spanish painter Francisco Goya was perhaps the first truly “political” artist. In his well-known painting The Third of May 1808, he criticized the Spanish government for its misuse of power over people. Over a hundred years later, symbolic images were used in Pablo Picasso’s Guernica to express the horror of war. Meanwhile, on another continent, the powerful paintings of Diego Rivera, Jose Clemente Orozco, and David Alfaro Siqueiros---as well as the works of Alfredo Ramos Martins---depicted(描述)these Mexican artists’ deep anger and sadness about social problems.
小题4:____________________________
In the same way, art can reflect a culture’s religious beliefs. For hundreds of years in Europe, religious art was almost the only type of art that existed. Churches and other religious buildings were filled with paintings that depicted people and stories from the Bible. Although most people couldn’t read, they could still understand biblical(圣经的)stories in the pictures on church walls.
小题5:___________________________
By contrast, one of the main characteristics of art in the Middle East was (and still is) its absence of human and animal images. This shows the Islamic belief that statues are unholy. Something else can be more religiously symbolic in history.

Three Healthy Ways to Help Your Kids Excel in School
  小题1:    Follow these golden rules to help ensure that your kids succeed this school year—and beyond.
1. Add exercise to their routine.
According to recently published research, the parts of children’s brains that are associated with memory and learning are larger in those kids who are more active.   小题2:     In other words, if you want your kids to get better grades as a result, make sure to schedule in frequent exercise along with piano practice and Mandarin lessons.
2. Feed them healthy food.
Children’s brains need much more nutritious materials to keep developing. A great amount of fish, eggs, nuts, berries, fruits, and vegetables in your kids’ diet will lead to well-nourished (营养良好的) brains as well as bodies.   小题3:    Limiting sweets prevents sugar rushes and low-blood-sugar crashes that can cause kids to become absent-minded and behave irregularly.
3.  小题4:    
While their bodies are asleep, children’s brains are hard at work going over the new information. Kids who don’t get enough sleep or are frequently interrupted while sleeping have been shown to have difficulty remembering what they’ve learned in school.   小题5: That will go far towards helping them be at their best throughout the school d
A.Make sure they get a good night’s sleep.
B.Powerful brains come from healthy bodies.
C.Help your kids go over their lessons before they go to bed.
