第45章 美丽人生 (5)(2 / 3)

ds—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.

5.\tA 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 sharply; perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.

6.\tLight and bright colors 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 gray.

1.\t你最喜欢什么色彩?你喜欢黄色、橙色和红色吗?倘若如此,你准是一个乐观的人,一个领导者。你偏爱灰、蓝系列色彩吗?那么,你很可能缄默、羞怯,你宁愿被别人领导而不愿领导别人。你有悲观者的倾向。

Keep On Singing别放弃歌唱

1.\tLike any good mother, when Karen found out that another baby was on the way, she did what she could to help her 3-year-old son, Michael, prepare for a new sibling. They find out that the new baby is going to be a girl, and day after day, night after night, Michael sings to his sister in Mommy’s tummy.

2.\tThe pregnancy progresses normally for Karen, an active member of the Panther Creek United Methodist Church in Morristown, Tennessee. Then the labor pains come. Every five minutes... every minute.
