作为环境因素之一的颜色，因为可以产生许多联想意义，有时也会对人的情绪造成很大影响，所以英语国家的人们常用它来喻指人的品德和情绪。以下是一个非常有趣的例子：


Mr．Black is a very white man．He was looking rather green the other day．He has been feeling blue lately．When I saw him，he was in a brown study．I hope he“ll soon be in the pink again．


要正确理解这段话，就必须弄清每个表示颜色的词在此处的引申义。其真正的含义是：布莱克先生是一位忠实可靠的人。几天前，他脸色发青，近来情绪低落。我见到他的时候，他显得心烦意乱。我希望他尽快康复。
