22、How colour psychology influences your dinner party guests
After spending hours cooking and preparing the table setting for your guests, you hope that everyone enjoys your recipes. But it’s not all about the quality of the ingredients and the skills of the cook. 【1】Whether it is a plate, a glass, a bowl or a cup, colour makes a significant impact on your guests.
【2】After that first impression, the brain integrates the visual information and affects perception(认知), making you think that the same food is excellent, good or average. Thus, the goal for dinner parties is to ensure that the food looks pleasing to the eye, so your guests will think it tastes as good as it looks.
Bowl colour influences the desirability of food for picky eaters, as well as the perception of saltiness. Picky eaters tend to perceive meals in red and blue bowls as saltier compared to white. And they are more unwilling to try new food in a red bowl. 【3】
You can never go wrong with a white plate. Just avoid it when the food served is pale. For desserts, white is ideal because it increases flavors and enhances sweetness. 【4】 Serving food in a black bowl can increase perceptions of its saltiness and portion size.
To bring extra aesthetic(审美的)appeal, creativity and to highlight foods lacking in colour, you can serve your meal on bright plates. But be careful! 【5】Similar ingredient colors to the tableware make everything integrate together and your guests think they have less food.
A.It starts with your sight.
B.But the result of dark plates can vary a little.
C.However, the rules of colour may not apply to all.
D.Besides, colourful plates are preferred by choosy eaters.
E.Food should only look more vivid depending on the meal.
F.The tableware is also an essential element, especially the colour.
G.So, for demanding guests, choose the colour of the tableware first.
23、About a quarter of the world drives on the left, and the countries that do so are mostly old British colonies (殖民地) like Australia, and Ireland. But Thailand, Indonesia and Japan have also developed this habit.
This strange phenomenon puzzles the rest of the world; however, there is a perfectly good reason. Up to the late 1700s, everybody travelled on the left side of the road because it was the sensible option for violent, feudal societies of mostly right-handed people. Soldiers with their swords under their right arms naturally passed on each other’s right, and if you passed a stranger on the road, you walked on the left to ensure that your protective sword arm was between you and him.
Revolutionary France, however, got rid of this practice as part of its sweeping social rethink, and thanks to Napoleon, this change was carried out all over continental Europe. Since he was left-handed, his armies had to march on the right so he could keep his sword arm between him and any opponent. From then on, any country colonized by the French took to driving on the right.
After the American Revolutionary War (1775-1783), the US became independent and decided to make traffic drive on the right in order to cut all remaining links to its British colonial past. Once America became the center of the car industry, if you wanted a good reliable vehicle, you bought an American car with right-hand drive. From then on, many countries changed out of necessity.
Today, the EU would like Britain to fall into line with the rest of Europe, but this would cost billions of pounds to change everything round. The last European country to convert to driving on the right was Sweden in 1967. This ironically caused a reduction in car accidents because everyone drove carefully while getting used to the new system.
【1】Why did people travel on the left before the late 18th century?
A.They were required to do so.
B.They were mostly left-landed.
C.It was easier to cross the street.
D.They could feel safer from attacks.
【2】What was Napoleon’s attitude about walking on the left?
A.Supportive.
B.Indifferent.
C.Doubtful.
D.Disapproving.
【3】For Americans, driving on the right was a way to show _________ .
A.the connection with France was broken
B.the US was no longer ruled by the UK
C.the American Revolution War had ended
D.America was the center of the car industry
【4】What is the main reason for UK’s resistance to the European system?
A.It would cost too much to change.
B.Its increasing traffic accidents.
C.Its influence on the colonies
D.Its fast-developing car industry.

26、请阅读下面短文,并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。
Much is unknown about how Covid-19, a new coronavirus, spreads. Current knowledge is largely based on what is known about similar coronaviruses. Coronaviruses are a large family of viruses that are common in many different species of animals, including camels, cattle, cats, and bats. Rarely, animal coronaviruses can infect people and then spread between people such as with MERS, SARS, and now with Covid-19.
Most often, spread from person-to-person happens among close contacts (about 6 feet). Person-to-person spread is thought to occur mainly via respiratory droplets (呼吸飞沫) produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes, similar to how influenza and other respiratory pathogens (病原体) spread. These droplets can land in the mouths or noses of people who are nearby or possibly be inhaled into the lungs. It's currently unclear if a person can get Covid-19 by touching a surface or object that has the virus on it and then touching their own mouth, nose, or possibly their eyes.
It's important to note that how easily a virus spreads person-to-person can vary. Some viruses are highly contagious (传染性) (like measles), while other viruses are less so. There is much more to learn about the transmissibility severity, and other features associated with Covid-19.
