    D

        Are you nervous? Maybe you should sit in a blue room. Are you always cold? Maybe you should sit in a room painted in a "warm colour" such as soft orange. Are you often sad? Maybe you should sit in a yellow room. Some researchers believe that colour has the power to influence our feelings. They believe that colours affect(影响)everyone in the same way.

        One study was in a workplace. The researchers painted heavy boxes white and light boxes black. They want to see how colour affected the workers' feelings. Which boxes do you think were more difficult to lift? The heavy white ones? No. The white boxes were heavier but they looked light. The researchers think that this is because light colours seem light.

        Another study was at school. Researchers at the University of Alberta in Edmonton, Canada, studied children with behaviour problems in their classroom. When the walls were brown and yellow, the children's heart rate went up and they were over-active. However, when the walls were dark blue, the children's heart rate was slower and the children were much calmer. If this is true, we can think carefully about the colours around them--not just in our homes, but also in offices, in schools, in hospitals, in gyms, in museums, in restaurants and even in prisons.
