Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.

Scientists, doctors and mental health professionals have been studying the connection between color and mood for years. Many now believe that colors can not only cause emotional reactions, but can also correct mood. Colors behave in three basic ways : active, passive and neutral(中和色的).

Active colors are warm colors, including yellow, orange and red. These colors bring confidence. Warm colors can also bring cheerful attitudes. Yellows and golden colors work well in offices, kitchens and study areas. Reds heat up a room. Passive colors or cool colors make people calm, quiet and satisfied. Bedrooms, private areas and bathrooms are great places for blues and greens. Beige, gray and white are thought of as neutral colors. They help to put the focus on other colors or serve to tone down(使柔和) colors that might otherwise be overpowering on their own.

You can easily change the look or feel of a room by making good use of different colors. Mixing and matching colors is an excellent way to balance color and emotion, and provide a welcoming feel for guests.

To create a feeling of warmth and comfort in a room, use bright, warm colors like yellow, orange and red. These colors are good choices for rooms that appear cool due to limited sunlight. Yellow adds cheerfulness to dull rooms. You can add yellows to rooms which are not closely related to happy thoughts, such as kitchens and laundry room. In rooms where there’s plenty of sunshine, cool colors can provide a calming environment. Sage greens and sky blues are prefect for bedrooms, playrooms and activity areas. Neutral colors, such pale gray, white and beige, send a peaceful message to your brain. It’s not a coincidence that most doctor’s offices, coffee shops and mental health centers are decorated in neutrals.

To make your wall color choices better, pick out furniture that will provide a visual contrast. Cool colors make a room seem larger than it is and warm colors make rooms feel smaller.

SECTION B　 ( 81-82　 2′each　　 83-84　 3′each )

Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the question according to the information given in the passage and the required words limit. Write your answers on your answer sheet.

If you are feeling stressed, try looking out of the window rather than spending your time in front of the television . A new US study finds that scenes of nature can decrease minor stress levels.

Researchers who work at the Human Interaction with Nature and Technological Systems Lab at the University of Washington set out to see whether nature, either the real thing or nature shown technologically, can have an effect on minor stress levels.

The study involved measuring people’s heart recovery rate from minor stress when they were exposed to a natural scene through a window and when they were exposed to the same scene shown on a screen, or a blank wall.

“The heart rate of people who looked at the scene through the window dropped more quickly than the others. In fact, the screen had no more effect than the blank wall,” the researchers said in a statement.

They also found that when people spent more time looking at the natural scene their heart rates tended to decrease more. That was not the case with the screen or the blank wall.

The study, which involved 90 college students, is published in the Journal of Environmental Psychology. “Technology is good and it can help our lives, but let’s not be fooled into thinking we can live without nature,” Peter Kahn, who led the research team, said in a statement.

　He said people are losing direct experiences with nature and instead are experiencing nature shown technologically through television and other media. And a great number of children grow up watching Discovery Channel and Animal Planet. “But as a species we need to be in touch with actual nature for our physical and mental health,” he said.
