Colors and Moods

Scientific studies have shown that color can affect the person's mood, and different color can bring
different feelings to people. Red can let a person become enthusiastic and excited; Yellow and white, let a
person feel happy and bring happiness to the person; Black is easy to let a person feel very sad; People
feel very comfortable when they see blue, will become quiet; Green can let our eyes rest, and is good for
our health.

(rng) and (sh) are used as causative verbs basically mean the same thing (to
make), but (sh) is used in more formal or written Chinese while (rng) is used more in
spoken Chinese.
