What is your favourite colour? Do you like yellow, orange, or red? If you do, you must be an optimist, a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. Do you prefer greys and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and
you would rather follow than lead
. You tend to be a pessimist. At least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of colour preference, as well as the effect that colours have on human beings. They tell us, among other facts, that we do not choose our favourite colour as we grow up—we are born with our preference. 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.
Colours do influence our moods—there is no doubt about it. A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing. A black bridge over the Thames River, near London, used to be the scene of more suicides than any other bridge in the area—until it was repainted green. The number of suicide attempts immediately fell down sharply; perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.
Light and bright colours make people not only happier but more active. It is an established fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or grey.
Those who committed suicide preferred the bridge over the Thames River to others because of its_________.
选项
A、shape
B、colour
C、structure
D、material
答案
B
解析
根据第二段最后两句“A black bridge…more suicides…until it was repainted gen…suicide attempts immediately fell down sharply…”可知,自杀者倾向于选择泰晤士河上的一座黑色桥作为自杀地,它被刷成绿色后,企图自杀的人数就急剧下降了。由此可推知,colour(色彩)是自杀者选择在泰晤士河的黑色桥上自杀的重要因素。
