Describe a place full of colour that you


remember going to.
You should say:
1. Where was this place
2. Why did you go there
3. What did you do at this place
And say why you remember this experience

1. What colours are commonly used for the decoration of peoples homes?
It seems to me that it can depend on the age of the home. Older homes that haven’t been
renovated in awhile tend to have duller colours. I’m not sure why, but grey seemed to be a
pretty popular colour back then. However, nowadays, it seems that people enjoy using
different colours for various rooms. Kitchens tend to be brighter with the use of colours like
yellow and orange. Living rooms, on the other hand, use more comfortable colours, such as
soft blues and greens. Oh, and the ceilings are often painted white. I guess that colour helps
make rooms appear like they have more space.

2. Can colours have any influence on people and their mood?


I’m not a psychology expert but I believe that I have heard somewhere that they can. I heard
that some colours are seen as relaxing while others can increase energy levels. I think that’s
why softer colours are now used more in rooms where people relax, such as the bed room
and living room. Whereas, in the morning people head straight for the kitchen and dining room
and want to socialize and wake up with a fresh brew of coffee. Therefore, it’s not so surprising
why some energy-boosting bright colours, such as orange and red, are often used in those
rooms.

3. What colours are important when people buy things?


Well I guess that the colour depends on what the person is buying. Obviously people who
shop for groceries will choose the matching colour for ripe fruit, such as yellow for bananas,
and orange for oranges. However, for something like clothes, people have a wide range of
preferences, and they often choose the colour they feel that will be the best match for them
and their other clothes. For more expensive items, like cars, people’s personality may show
the most here. People who are more conservative and safety minded may go for a solid colour
like blue. Whereas a risk taker or someone who likes attention may go for red or yellow.

4. Is colour really important in advertisements?


Well, it’s obvious that colour can have a tremendous psychological impact on people. For
instance, I’ve heard that most people like the colour blue, so it’s not surprising that it is used
in a lot of advertisements. And the colour green seems to be the in thing now, that is now that
people are more concerned about their health and environmental issues. So a product wishing
to portray that may use this colour in it’s advertising. Another thing is that some colours are
just eye-catching. It’s no wonder that most for sale signs use the colour red since people are
bound to notice that colour.

5. Are pictures in textbooks really important?


Hmm. Is it really important for textbooks to use pictures? I suppose that there are many
reasons why course books use them. People say that a picture often says a thousand words
and I believe that to be true. Using illustrations helps to aid in the learning and may be more
effective than just describing something.. Also, there are different types of learners and some
appreciate seeing it rather than reading it. And don’t forget that having a little bit of variety can
also help to engage learners. Another thing is that course books also have to compete with
other ones to be sold. Therefore, a dull book without photos or pictures has a greater chance
of not being chosen.
