D One day Jack’s wife was cleaning out a closet (壁橱), and she found eight broken umbrellas. Jack looked at them and said, "I’ll take them all to the umbrella shop and have them repaired. They are too good to be thrown away." He took the eight umbrellas to the shop and left them there. "They’ll be ready tomorrow," the shopkeeper (店主) told him. That evening Jack went home from the office by bus as usual. He sat next to an old woman. She had an umbrella on the floor near her. When the bus reached Jack’s stop, he picked up the woman’s umbrella and stood up. "Hey!" the woman said. "That’s my umbrella." "I’m so sorry," Jack said, giving it to her. "I wasn’t thinking. Please forgive me." The next day he collected (取回) the umbrellas from the umbrella shop and got on the bus. As he sat down, a voice behind him said, "You have certainly had a successful day!"

H People choose colors when they buy things. Because of this, factories want to make things that are the colors people buy. For example, a car factory needs to know how many red cars or green ones they should make. Good businessmen (商人) know that young people’s colors are different from old people’s, and men’s are different from women’s. Young children react (反应) to the color of anything before they react to its shape. They like warm colors—red, yellow, and orange. When people get older, they begin to react more to the shape than color. The most liked color of grown-ups of all countries is blue. Their second loved color is red, and their third is green. On the whole, women like brighter colors than men do. Almost everyone likes red, but women like yellow and green more than men do. If two things are the same except color, they will look different. A red thing always looks nearer than a blue one just like bright things look larger than dark ones. That’s why large or fat people who want to look smaller or thinner wear dark clothes. Why do factories want to know how people feel about different colors

A. People care more about the colors of things than the shapes.
B. People choose to buy things by their colors.
C. People like things with bright colors.
