Yuebai, gielan and shiging...These are 96 old Chinese people called different kinds of blue in the old times-light or deep. Yuebai is not white. It’s a kind of blue close to the color of moonlight.
Old Chinese people generally 97 colors into basic colors and mixed colors. There were five basic colors: blue, red, yellow, white and black. People could mix them together to get mixed colors.
Colors have special meanings in Chinese culture. In old China, color was a symbol of social 98 . For example, yellow stood for power. It was a color for the emperors. Officials of different ranks (等级) wore clothes of different colors. Purple clothes were simply for officials of the top three ranks while blue was for those who were in the two lowest ranks.
Many beautiful color names come from famous works of literature and show how old Chinese people understood the beauty of nature. For example, dongfangjibai is a light blue color. It comes from a work by Su Shi. The color blue describes the color of the sky 99 the sun rises.
100 , people in the West also use colour expressions to show their feelings and describe the world. Red is often used to express 101 feelings. They may say they are red hot when they are very angry.

Each school day, yellow school buses take millions of American kids to and from school. According to the law, school buses must be painted “school bus 136 ”. You may not find it in a box of crayons. The color is neither pure yellow nor pure orange. Instead, it is a mix of the two, similar 137 to the flesh of a mango.
Before such a law was passed, school buses had been painted pure yellow, close to the color of a lemon. In 1939, Dr. Frank W. Cyr had a meeting to set 138 for US school buses. This included a standard color for all school buses in the whole country. Since then, Dr. Cyr has been known 139 the “father of the Yellow School Bus”.
The school bus yellow color is not just for looks. It is also a matter of safety. Many people 140 that red is the most noticeable color. Both stop signs and stop lights are red. In fact, research shows that yellow gets our attention 141 than any other color. Even if we are looking straight ahead, we can also see a yellow object that is going past 142 . Besides that, unlike red, yellow is also more easily noticed in a 143 environment. School buses usually 144 children to school in early morning. The black lettering on that yellow background is the easiest color combination to be 145 in darkness. This is another main reason why school bus yellow was chosen.

According to Dr Julie Indigo, the way we use colors in our homes is very important. Science has proved (证明) that colors can 146 our moods. It is important to think about the relationship between colors and the way we feel when we decorate (装饰) our homes.
Usually, the colors in your house are 147 by the country where you live. For example, a house in a warm country like Spain is often painted white or 148 . These are cool colors. A house in England would often need a warm colour such as yellow or orange.
However, Dr Indigo says that we need to think more about 149 the room is used for before choosing a colour. A bedroom should never be green or red because you need to feel 150 and peaceful in it. White is a great colour for a bedroom 151 it can help reduce stress. Green is a really good colour for a kitchen because it 152 you feel energetic and it is a creative colour. A good choice for 153 is to paint their studies yellow. Yellow is a colour of wisdom and will help you when you need to do homework or 154 for an exam.
Dr Indigo will come to our school this week and give a speech 155 how to choose the best colors for each room. If you are interested, please contact the Students’ Union.
