问题     What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, or red? If you do, you must be an optimist (乐观主义者), 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(悲观主义者). At least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference, as well as the effect that colors have on human beings. They tell us, among other facts, that we do not choose our favorite color 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.
    Colors 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 (自杀) 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.
    Light 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 grey.
If one enjoys life, one is sure to prefer________.

选项 A、red to yellow
B、blue to orange
C、blue to yellow
D、red to grey

答案D

解析 根据第一段第二、三句“Do you like yellow, orange, or red? If you do, you must be…who enjoys life, people and excitement. ”可知,喜欢黄色、橘色或红色的人是乐观主义者、领导者、享受生活的积极人士。由此可推知,如果一个人享受生活的话,他更喜爱这三种颜色。根据第一段第四、五、六句“Do you prefer greys and blues…You tend to be a pessimist. ”可知,悲观主义者喜欢灰色和蓝色。结合选项可知,选D。
