Colours represent many things in life: excitement, beauty, aura, etc. Have you heard of the saying "It's a blue Monday" or "I am in the pink of health"? In both instances, colours have been used as idiomatic expressions or figurative speech to express the mood or condition one is in. In addition, colours are associated with some superstitions. Some people believe that the right colours will brighten up one's day whereas the wrong colours will affect one's mood negatively. That is why some people feel happier and more cheerful when they wear bright coloured clothing. In the following text, you will find out what colours say about personality.
生活中,颜色代表很多东西:兴奋、美丽、气质等。你听到过这些话吗“郁闷的星期一”或者“我很健康”?在这两个例子中,颜色被用作习惯用语或者比喻语来表达人们的心情或健康状况。此外,颜色还与迷信息息相关。有些人认为,得当的颜色会让人一天倍感欢愉,然而不合适的颜色会让人产生负面情绪。这就是为什么有人身穿颜色亮丽的衣服会感到更幸福,更开心。在下面的文章中,你会发现颜色反映了我们的个性。

It is believed by many that our preference for some specific colors may be closely related to what kind of people we are. Well, it may not be totally scientific, but the colors we like do to some extent reflect our personality. Read the following and you may find out some things about yourself that you did not know before.
许多人都相信我们偏爱的颜色与我们是哪种类型的人可能紧密相关。虽然没有完全的科学根据,但是我们喜欢的颜色在某些程度上的确反映了我们的个性。阅读以下文字,你可能会对自己的性格特征有一些新的认识。
A: Red
A:红色
Red represents passion and energy. Of the eight colors, if red is your first choice, it means you are impulsive, sexy and have a will to win. You are a good leader. You want to expand your horizons and make the best of your life. When red falls back to your seventh or last choice, it means your desire for life and thirst for adventure have become less.
红色代表激情与活力。八种颜色之中,如果红色是你的第一选择,这意味着你容易冲动、性感并且好胜。你是一位好的领导者,你想要扩展自己的视野,充实地度过一生。如果红色回落至你的第七个或最后一个选择,它意味着你对生活的欲望和对冒险的渴求较少。
B: Yellow
B:黄色
Yellow represents happiness and relaxation. Anyone who takes yellow as their second, third or fourth choice is a positive, optimistic person, who always looks to the future ― never backward. You find life easy, and problems simply do not exist for you. Free from worry, you lead a carefree life; but this does not mean that you are lazy. You can be extremely hardworking, although not consistently. Yellow as your first choice means that you are ambitious and eager to please. When yellow is one of your last few choices you have had your hopes and dreams destroyed and you feel isolated and disappointed, often becoming defensive and withdrawn.
黄色代表快乐与放松。把黄色列为第二、第三或第四选择的人是积极、乐观并放眼未来的人——从不向后看。你会发现生活轻松,问题对你来说根本就不存在。你远离烦恼,过着无忧无虑的生活,但这不意味着你是懒惰的。你可能非常勤勉,虽然不一定总是如此。黄色作为你的第一选择,意味着你雄心勃勃,渴望取悦他人。如果黄色排在最后几位,那你所拥有的希望和梦想已经破灭,你感觉被隔绝和失望,往往变得戒心重重,不愿与人交往。
