For most of us, there is no debate — bananas are yellow. Color isn’t as objective as you might think though. Our brain decides what color we are looking at based on the light that comes into our eyes, and how we see colors actually varies a lot.

There are many ways color can confuse our brains. Positioning and shading can change what we think we are looking at. Two people can see the same thing very differently because of how our brains deal with light.

How we see color, however, is governed by much more than just our bodies. Our emotions or even the time of year, can change how our eyes and brains react to what we see. Yellow looks different to us depending on the season, according to scientists at the University of York. In the summer yellow appears more “greenish” whereas in the winter yellow appears more “reddish”. This is the result of living in an environment where the level of green light increases in the summer. When the trees are full of leaves, our eyes need to adapt. With extra green all around us, our brain has to recheck its understanding of yellow.

Researchers in Rochester, New York have found that feeling sad can impact on your ability to identify (辨别) colors. Participants were shown some small pieces of cloth which had most, but not all, of the colors removed from them. Later, they were asked to identify what color they were looking at. A group who had watched the death of Mufasa in The Lion King found it harder to pick out blue and yellow than others who had not seen the film. Psychologists believe that dopamine — which controls our brain’s reward and pleasure centers — has an impact on how we identify these colors. So while color might seem to be one of the simplest things in our world, it is actually a mystery scientists are only just beginning to solve.

1.What does the passage mainly focus on?

A.Why we see colors differently. B.How our brains receive colors.

C.Why colors affect our emotions. D.How people can identify colors.

2.Which of the following is unable to affect people’s ability to identify colors?

A.Position. B.Intelligence.

C.Environment. D.Feeling.

3.Yellow looks different in summer and winter because of ___________.

A.people’s different sight B.the different temperatures

C.the different levels of green light D.people’s different body conditions

4.What can we learn from the last paragraph?

A.The sad feeling weakens people’s ability to identify colors.

B.We can find out the secret of dopamine in some movies.

C.Scientists have found the answer to the color mystery.

D.There are many ways that color can entertain our brains.
