章节摘录

　　White is the color of snow. People describe white as a pure,clean color. They associate white with a bright clean feeling. Doctorsand nurses normally wear white uniforms. On the other hand, blackis the color of night. People wear black clothes at serious or formalceremonies.　　Businessmen know that people choose products by color. Busi-nessmen want to manufacture products which are the colors peoplewill buy. For example, an automobile manufacturer needs to knowhow many cars to paint red, how many green, and how many black.Good businessmen know that young people prefer different colorsthan old people do and men prefer different colors than women do.　　Young children react to the color of an object before they reactto its shape. They prefer the warm colors　　red, yellow, and or-ange. When people grow older, they begin to react more to the shapeof an object than to its color. The favorite color of adults of all coun-tries is blue. Their second favorite color is red, and their third isgreen.　　On the whole, women prefer brighter colors than men do. Al-most everyone likes red, but women like yellow and green more thanmen do. Pink is usually considered a feminine color. Blue is usuallyconsidered a masculine color. As a result, people dress baby girls inpink and baby boys in blue. However, it is dangerous to generalizebecause taste changes. For example, years ago businessmen woreonly white shirts; today they wear many different colors, includingpink.　　If two objects are the same except for color, they will look dif-ferent. Color can make an object look nearer or farther, larger orsmaller. A red object always looks nearer than a blue object.
