新素材 年度颜色 Every year, the Pantone Colour Company chooses a colour that reflects the global feeling and attitude(态度). For 2025, Mocha Mousse(摩卡慕斯色) was chosen.
Mocha Mousse is a warm, rich brown colour. On its official website, Pantone described it as a colour that warms us with thoughts of “chocolate and coffee, answering our need for comfort”.
This choice, marking the 26th year of the Pantone Colour of the Year, came during a difficult time in the world. “Mocha Mousse—a colour that makes people think of trust and safety—reflects our need for harmony,” said Laurie Pressman, a speaker of the Pantone Colour Company. “Harmony brings inner peace, calm and balance, letting us stay together with the world around us,” Pressman added.
The colour is also closely tied to nature. Brown is a colour of earth and harvest, showing a connection to the land. With its natural feel, Mocha Mousse positively influences a sense of happiness.
Besides its deep meanings, the colour is
also widely used in daily life—from home design to fashion, from product design to digital tools. According to TourBox, a company that makes tools for artists, the colour is good for both home and workspace, where it helps to lower stress and create a calm, comfortable environment. Bringing warmth and relaxing grace, Mocha Mousse became a popular choice in design.

根据短文内容,回答下列问题。
Maybe you don’t want to carry a bag around. But you still need somewhere to put your cellphone and your pencil box. Why not try a pair of baggy pants(袋形裤)? These pants have lots of big pockets!
Baggy pants are more and more popular today. It’s because they’re comfortable and easy to wear. Young skaters are free to move around when they are in baggy pants. Hip-hop kids see baggy pants as part of their style.
Many people like wearing tight trousers as well. But baggy pants are still popular. Why? Because if you are not slim enough, tight pants may show your big belly or fat legs!
Baggy pants look loose(宽松的) and wide when someone wears them; it’s just like they are wearing a big bag! USA teenagers like to put on baggy pants. They often match them with large T-shirts, baseball hats and pairs of sneakers(运动鞋).
Young people in the USA first started to wear baggy pants around the 1970s. They were usually rebellious(叛逆的) kids and liked to listen to rock music. They wanted to show they were different from other people. The young people didn’t like the clean look. They thought baggy pants made them look very cool.
1. Do baggy pants have lots of big pockets?
2. Why are baggy pants more and more popular?
3. What do baggy pants look like?
4. Who likes to put on baggy pants?
