VI．完形填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）
阅读下列短文, 从每小题所给的A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出一个最佳选项。
Each school day, yellow school buses take millions of American kids to and from school. According 
to the law, school buses must be painted “school bus 36 ”. You may not find it in a box of crayons. The
color is neither pure yellow nor pure orange. Instead, it is a mix of the two, similar 37 to the flesh (果肉) of a mango.
Before such a law was passed, school buses had been painted pure yellow, close to the color of a lemon. 
In 1939, Dr. Frank W. Cyr had a meeting to set  38  for US school buses. This included a standard color 
for all school buses in the whole country. Since then, Dr. Cyr has been known  39 the “father of the 
Yellow School Bus”.
The school bus yellow color is not just for looks. It is also a matter of safety. Many people  40 that 
red is the most noticeable color. Both stop signs and stop lights are red. In fact, research shows that yellow getsour attention 41  than any other color. Even if we are looking straight ahead, we can also see a yellow 
object that is going past  42 . Besides that, unlike red, yellow is also more easily noticed in a  43 environment. School buses usually 44 children to school in early moming. The black lettering (字体) 
on that yellow background is the easiest color combination（组合） to be 45  in darkness. This is another
main reason why school bus yellow was chosen.
36. A. red B. blue C. green D. yellow
37. A. color B. smell C. size D. sweet
38. A. times B. lines C. rules D. shapes
39. A. for B. as C. to D. with
40. A. disagree B. believe C. promise D. imagine
41. A. faster B. slower C. worse  D. harder
42. A. you B. them C. us D. it
43. A. light B. warm C. clean D. dark
44. A. pick up B. give up C. throw away D. find out 
45. A. written B. seen C. touched D. hit

It’s natural for you to feel sad when some people are rude to you. However, what I’d like to say is: try to understand others, and let the sad moments go.
Last Sunday, when I was shopping, I met an old friend of mine, Betty. She was looking for something carefully. It was clear that she was not happy. I walked to her and had a short talk with her. I knew that she worked as a cashier (收银员) at a nearby store. What made her sad was that sometimes the customers were rude to her at the store. She said that it even made her a little bit nervous when she worked.
“Well, I think I can understand,” I said. “You know, I was a nurse before, and I had sad moments as well. Sometimes patients and their family members could be very rude, but I tried to understand them. I let the sad moments go and just try to do my job well.”
She looked a little relaxed after hearing my words. “How kind and friendly a girl you are!” she said. We talked for another while and then she went to work with a big smile on her face.
In fact, as long as we try to understand others, our life will be better and better.

Dear Linda，
I’m happy to hear from you. It is normal to have some trouble in getting along with new classmates, but don’t be too worried. Here are some ways that might help.
Firstly, you should greet your classmates warmly and don’t be shy. Secondly, don’t be afraid to tell what you really think or feel. What’s more, everyone is different, so respect others and be polite to them. Last but not least, be honest to them and don’t tell lies.
As the saying goes，“A man without friends is an angel without wings.” I’m sure you will get along well with your new classmates and teachers sooner or later.
Yours，
Li Hua
