【題目】 When you use crayons, you can color things any way you want. Life wasn’t always so colorful, though. A hundred years ago, all crayons were black. They were used in factories and shipyards. Kids couldn’t use them because they were toxic.
Then a company called Binney & Smith had an idea. They decided to make Crayola crayons for kids and teachers to use in schools. They figured out a formula(配方)that was safe, and they also decided to add colors. The first box of eight Crayola crayons included black, brown, blue, red, purple, orange, yellow, and green. The box cost five cents. The crayons were a huge hit!
Today, many companies make crayons, but Crayola is still the biggest. They take crayons very seriously especially when it comes to colors.
For example, Crayola has a team of seven chemists and chemical engineers who do nothing all day but develop new crayon colors. Their laboratory adds the unique, secret formula to every crayon color. They blend(混合)different colors to come up with new shades(色度). Once the engineers discover a new color they like, they test it on hundreds of kids and parents to make sure it’s really useful. Only then is a crayon ready for the box.
Then comes the hard part——figuring out what to name a new color. In 1993, Crayola introduced 16 new colors for its “Big box” of 96 crayons. More than two million kids and adults wrote in to advise on the names of the colors. Some winners were tickle me pink (bright pink), timber wolf (gray), purple mountains majesty (purple), tropical rainforest (bright green), granny smith apple (light green), and mauvelous (light pink).Over the years, Crayola has changed the names of some colors.
Around the globe, kids still say that red and blue are their favorite crayon on colors.

【題目】 Some scientists conducted a study years ago. They gave 186 kids aged 4 regular carrots for lunch on some days, and the ________ vegetables renamed X-ray Vision Carrots on other days. Interestingly, the children ate nearly twice as many on the latter days.
The study suggests the influence of these names might continue. Children continued to eat about 50 percent more carrots even on the days when they were ___________ labeled as anything fun.
The research, funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, was presented at the annual meeting of the School Nutrition Association in Washington, D.C.
“Cool names can make for cool foods,” said the lead author Brian Wansink of Cornell University. “Whether it be ‘power peas’ or ‘dinosaur broccoli trees’, giving a food a fun ________________ makes kids think it will be more fun to eat. And it seems to keep working — even the next day,” Wansink said.
Similar results have been found with _________. A restaurant study showed that when the Seafood Filet was changed to Romantic Hawaii, sales increased 28 percent and taste rating increased by 12 percent. “Same food, but different expectations, and a different experience,” said Wansink, author of “Mindless Eating: Why We Eat More Than We Think.”
The study was conducted in pre-schools, but the researchers believe the same naming tricks can work with children ______________.
“I’ve been using this with my kids,” said researcher Collin Payne, “Whatever sparks(激發(fā)) their imagination seems to spark their appetite.”
【1】A.sameB.differentC.deliciousD.colorful
【2】A.stillB.noC.no longerD.specially
【3】A.colorB.smellC.flavorD.name
【4】A.adultsB.school kidsC.teenagersD.customers
【5】A.in primary schoolsB.in middle schoolsC.after schoolD.at home
