We all associate colors with feeling and attitudes. In politics dark blue often means "tradition", and red means "social change". But blue can also mean sadness (I’m feeling blue), white is often for purity, although in China white is worn at weddings and black for funerals. Advertisers are aware of the importance of selecting colors according to the way people react to them. Soap powders come in white and light blue packets (clean and cold, like ice); cereals often come in brown packets (like wheat fields), but cosmetics never come in brown jars (dirty?).
Where do these ideas come from? Max Luscher from the University of Geneva believes that in the beginning life was dictated by two factors beyond our control: night and day. Night brought passivity, and a general slowing down of metabolism; day brought with it the possibility of action, and increase in the metabolic rate, thus providing us with energy and initiative. Dark blue, therefore, is the color of quiet and passivity, bright yellow, the color of hope and activity.
In prehistoric times, activity as a rule took one of two forms: either we were hunting and attacking, or we were being hunted and defending ourselves against attack. Attack is universally represented by the color red; self-preservation by its complement green.
In Luscher’s view, the association of colors with feeling and attitudes can be traced back to ______.
选项
A、the association of day and night with passivity and action in ancient time
B、the association of black with funerals in western Europe
C、the association of white with purity in some countries
D、the association of red with joy in China
答案
A
解析
本题为细节题。第二段前三句指出:“这些观念——将情感和态度与色彩相联——来自何处?吕树教授认为,人类伊始,生命听从于两个我们无法控制(beyond our control)的因素——日与夜的对立。夜与被动相联,通常意味着新陈代谢的减缓;日与行动相联,意味着代谢率的增加,代谢率的增加给我们以行动的能量。”这就是人们将颜色与情感态度相联的最初原因,因此A为正确答案。
