What's your favourite c{#blank#}1{#/blank#}? Different people have different answers. Red and yellow are the colours of courage. If you like yellow or red, it means you are full of energy and have happy feeling about life. If you like grey or blue, you are a quiet person and sometimes you feel unhappy. If you love green, you may be strong-minded. You wish to do everything well and want other people to see you are s{#blank#}2{#/blank#}.

    A yellow room makes you feel h{#blank#}3{#/blank#} than a dark green one, and a red dress can make n easier for you to take a{#blank#}4{#/blank#}.

    Light and bright colours m{#blank#}5{#/blank#} people more active. For example, if the machines in a factory arc painted orange instead of dark grey, the workers will work better, harder and have f{#blank#}6{#/blank#} accidents.

You will k{#blank#}7{#/blank#} your friends better when you find out what colours they like and d{#blank#}8{#/blank#}. And don't forget that people can guess something about your c{#blank#}9{#/blank#} when you choose something in different colours.

    George Wilson was the owner of a watch shop. One day he told his son James," I'll teach you all I know about watches."

    For the first few weeks, James looked after the front of the shop. He worked hard and was {#blank#}1{#/blank#} to the customers(顾客). George was very pleased with(对...... 很满意) him.

    After about six months, James said to his father," "Is there anything else you want to teach me?"

    "Yes," said George," it's time for me to teach you how to make{#blank#}2{#/blank#} "

    "I know that," said James," you buy watches at one price and sell them at a {#blank#}3{#/blank#} price. That's how we get so much money."

    "That's true. But we don't make most of the money from it." He picked up a watch from the counter(柜台)."What do you think of this watch?"

    "That's a cheap watch. We can only get few dollars from {#blank#}4{#/blank#}  it."

    "You are wrong, my son," George said," those cheap ones get {#blank#}5{#/blank#} money to us than any other watch in the shop."

    "I don't understand," James said.

    "Because they are really cheap, they are always breaking, and we make our money from fixing them."
