【题目】The world seems gloomy(阴沉的)and gray when you’re feeling blue. In fact, being down might even affect how you perceive(感知)the color blue. A recent study about color was published in the journal Psychological Science. It shows a direct connection between a person’s ability to perceive color and their emotions.

Psychologists have long known that emotions can affect the way people perceive things. That’s in part because chemicals from your brain might affect how you process what you see. “Color is such an important part of our experience,” says lead author Christopher Thorstenson, a psychologist at the university of Rochester, in New York. There’s reason, he says, that sad people commonly describe the world as “colorless” and “gray”, and happy people use words like “bright” and “colorful”.

In the experiment, the researchers randomly assigned people to one of two groups. People in the “sadness” group watched a sad scene from The Lion King. Those in the “amusement’ group watched a comedy.

Everyone was then asked to look at red, yellow, green, and blue patches(斑点)that had been changed to a grayish color. “Some of the patches are pretty difficulty to make out,” Thorstenson admits he says it takes some time to figure out their shade. People were scored on how accurate their color perception was. Then they completed an emotional evaluation.

The result? Sad people had a hard time seeing the difference between shades along the blue-yellow color axis(色轴). But they did no have problems seeing colors in the red-green spectrum(光谱). Thorstenson says this could be the result of an evolutionary need to see red as a response to anger.

Thorstenson says these results highlight the possible important of dopamine in sight. Dopamine is a chemical that sends signals to the brain. Researchers are hoping to focus more on dopamine in the future. “We know dopamine affects how we see colors, too,” Thorstenson says “How we feel can really influence how we see the world around us” he says.

1According to paragraph 2, how people describe the world reflects ________.

A. how they feel B. how they think

C. their world view D. their language skills

2In the experiment, the participants were asked to watch different programs so as to __________.

A. check their feelings B. influence their moods

C. develop their interests D. test their personalities

3Why were the patches made grayish in the experiment?

A. To make them look prettier

B. To make them hard to recognize

C. Because it changed the participants’ attitudes

D. Because it was good for the participants’ eyes

4Which color is easier to recognize for sad people?

In China, Yang Zhiqiao is 77 and has retired. She does the Mickey Mouse costume in Luoyang, Henan Province to earn some pocket money from passers-by, which she saves for her son. “My son is 40 and is still single. I don’t want to be a burden to him. I want to help him financially so he can get a wife,” Yang says.

According to an unrelated news story, parents in a Beijing suburb are getting up at 5 am each day and standing in line for shuttle buses. The early birds have developed this habit not for themselves, but for their grown-up children, who work in downtown Beijing. The youngsters have to spend four or five hours each day commuting and their parents chip in插嘴by waiting in line for them so they can squeeze an extra half hour of sleep.

However, children in the US will leave their parents when they grow up. They want to find better jobs, so they usually live far away from their parents. They often write to their parents or call them. And they go to visit their parents during their holidays.

Parents will ask their children to do some work around their house. In many families children will get money for doing some housework so that they can learn to make money on their own. Parents usually let their children choose their own jobs. Americans think that for young people it is important to decide on their lives by themselves.
