（A）
Tim Berners-Lee is the man who wrote the software(软件)programme that led to the foundation of the World Wide Web. Britain played an important part in developing the first generation(第一代) of computers. The parents of Tim Berners-Lee both worked on one of the earliest commercial(商业的)computers and talked about their work at home. As a child he would build models of computers from packaging material. After graduating from Oxford University he went on to the real thing. In the 1980's,scientists were already using a primitive version(原始版本)of E-mail. While working at a laboratory in Switzerland Tim Berners-Lee wrote a programme which let him store these messages. In 1990 he wrote the HTTP(服务程序所用的协议)and HTML(超文本链接标示语言)programmes which form the basis of the World Wide Web.
The next year his programmes were placed on to the internet. Everyone was welcome to use them and improve them if they could. Programmers used his codes(编码)to work with different operating systems（系统）. New things like web browsers(浏览器) and search engines were developed. Between 1991 and 1994 the number of web pages rose from 10 to 100，000.
In 1994 Tim Berners-Lee formed the newly formed World Wide Web Consortium(协会) or W3C.More than 200 leading companies and laboratories are represented（代表） by W3C. Together they make sure that everyone can participate（参加） equally on the Web.

What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, red? If you do, you must be an optimist(乐观者), a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. Do you prefer grays(灰色)and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy and you would rather follow than lead. If you love green, you are strong-minded and determined(意志坚定的). You wish to succeed and want other people to see you are successful. At least this is what psychologists(心理学家)tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference(爱好), and the effect(影响)that colors have on human beings. They tell us that we don't choose our favorite color as we grow up. If you happen to love brown, you did so as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.
A yellow room makes us feel more cheerful(开心的)and more comfortable than a dark green one, and a red dress rings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing(压抑). Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active. It is a fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or dark gray.
Remember, then, that if you feel low, you can always brighten your day or your life with a new shirt or a few colorful things. Remember also that you will know your friends and your enemies better when you find out what colors they like and dislike. And don't forget that anyone can guess a lot about your character when you choose a piece of handkerchief.

Not everyone in the world requires the same amount（量） of living space. The amount of space a person needs around him is a cultural(文化的) difference, not an economic(经济的) one. Knowing your own psychological(心理的) space needs is important because they strongly affect your choices, including, for example, the number of bedrooms in the home. If you were brought up in a two-child family and both you and your sister or brother had your own bedrooms, the chances are if you have two children or more, that you also will offer separate bedrooms for them. In America, for example, they train people to want to have their own rooms by giving them their own rooms when they are babies. This is very unusual in the world. In many other countries, the baby sleeps in the same bed with his parents or in bed near them.
The space in the home also shows a lot about psychological space needs. Some families gather closer to each other and the size of their house has nothing to do with it. Others have separate little corners where family members go to be alone.
Although it is true that psychological space needs are not decided by economic reasons, they sometimes have to be changed a little because of economic pressure（压力）. It is almost impossible, however, to completely change your psychological space needs.
9. The first sentence in Paragraph 1 “Not everyone in the world requires the same amount of space” means “______”.
A. Not two people need exactly the same amount of living space
B. Living space requirements are not always the same
C. The world requires the same amount of living space
D. Nobody needs a required amount of living space
10. Some families gather closer to each other at home than others because ______.
A. they have limited living space
B. they are brought up in a large family
C. it satisfies（满足） their psychological space needs
D. the children in the family sleep in the same bed with their parents
