解析試題分析：這篇短文中作者告訴了我們一些關于顏色我們可能不知道的事情。顏色可以影響我們的心情，在文章中，作者給出了很多例子來說明，各種顏色是怎樣影響我們的心情的。
【小題1】細節理解題。根據短文第一段中Do you like yellow orange, or red? If you do, you must be an active person who enjoys life可知，如果你喜歡黃色、橙色或紅色，那么你一定是一個積極的人。由此可知選A。
【小題2】細節理解題。根據短文第二段的開頭Colors do influence our moods(情緒) yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one可知，顏色能影響人的情緒。黃色的房間比深綠色的房間更能使人愉快。故選D。
【小題3】細節理解題。根據短文第二段中On the other hand ,black is depressing(使人壓抑的). There was a black bridge over the Thames River, near London .The number of people who killed themselves on that bridge used to be larger than on any other bridge可知，黑色使人壓抑，在泰晤士河畔有一座黑色的橋，在這座橋上自殺的人要比在其他橋上的更多。由此可知選D。
【小題4】細節理解題。根據短文最后一段中In the factory the workers will better, harder and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black.可知，如果工廠里的機器是橘色，那么工人們會工作得更好、更賣力，出現的事故也更少。由此可知選B。
【小題5】主旨大意題。這篇短文中作者告訴了我們一些關于顏色的事情，顏色可以影響我們的心情，在文章中，作者給出了很多例子來說明，各種顏色是怎樣影響我們的心情的。故選C，顏色的秘密。A選項意為：使人高興的顏色，這個題目太片面，因為文中也提到了使人壓抑的顏色；B選項意為：你最喜歡的顏色，這個題目不符合文意；D選項意為：橋的顏色，這個題目也是太片面了。
