实验 First put two objects with the same weight into two boxes Then cover the boxes Then rap 包裹 one box with a red piece of paper the other one with a white piece of paper OK Now hold the boxes with your hand one by one It is certain that you will think the red one is a little heavier Why do you think so A scientist found that different colours have different weights in man s mind That is to say every colour has its own weight in our mind The scientist told us that colours also have smell Can you smell the colour Of course not Then why did the scientist say so That is because every colour stands for 代表 a kind of light with a certain wavelength 波长 It reaches our brain through sense organs According to this discovery scientists say that people accept the colours they like and refuse the colours they hate So your body and mind will be healthy by using the colours you like Or you ll be nervous or even get ill For example you like blue and hate red If you stay in a room with red windows wallpaper and furniture 家具 for two hours you ll feel you have been there for four hours you ll fed you have been there for four hours But if the room is blue you I1 feel you have been there for only
