问题     The fact that blind people can " see" things using other parts of their bodies apart from their eyes may help us to understand our feelings about colour. If they can sense colour differences then perhaps we, too, are affected by colour unconsciously.
    Manufacturers have discovered by trial and error that sugar sells badly in green wrappings, and that blue foods are considered unpleasant, and the cosmetics should never be packaged in brown. These discoveries have grown into a whole discipline of color psychology that now finds application in everything from fashion to interior decoration. Some of our preferences are clearly psychological. Dark blue is the colour of the night sky and therefore associated with passivity and calm, while yellow is a day colour with associations of energy and incentive. For primitive man, activity during the day meant hunting and attacking, while he soon saw as red, the colour of blood and rage and the heat that came with effort. And green is associated with passive defence and self - preservation. Experiments have shown that colours, partly because of their psychological association, also have a direct psychological effect. People exposed to bright red show an increase in heartbeat, and blood pressure; red is exciting. Similar exposure to pure blue has exactly the opposite effect; it is a calming colour. Because of its exciting connotations (涵义) , red was chosen as the signal for danger, but closer analysis shows that a vivid yellow can produce a more basic state of alertness and alarm, so fire engines and ambulances in some advanced communities are now rushing around in bright yellow colours that stop the traffic dead.
If people are exposed to bright red, which of the following things does NOT happen ?

选项 A、They feel afraid.
B、Their hearts beat faster.
C、They breathe faster.
D、Their blood pressure rises.

答案A

解析 这是一道判断是非的题型。题干要求:当人们接触到红色时,不会发生以下哪种情况?文章在第二段中提到“while he soon saw as red,the colour of blood and rage and the heat that came with effort.”意思是接触红色的人们会心跳加快并且血压升高。内容涉及选项B和选项D,其中C项“红色使人兴奋”,暗示着呼吸加快。所以只剩下选项A,“他们感到害怕”没有,因此答案为D。
