四、阅读理解
What colors do you like for your clothes? Do you know “dopamine (多巴胺) dressing”? It is one of the fashion styles these days. Is there any science behind this?
“Dopamine dressing” is from the book Dress Your Best Life. American fashion psychologist (心理学家), Dawnn Karen gives the name. In the book, “dopamine dressing” is about wearing colorful clothes to get more dopamine. Dopamine dressing usually uses bright colors like pink, yellow and green, because they can bring happiness to people.
Dopamine is something in our brain (大脑). It makes people feel good. Our brain gives it out when we eat delicious food, play with our pets, listen to our favorite songs, after we exercise or when we win (赢) a game.
In Science Focus Magazine, some studies show that different colors can make people feel different. For example, one study shows bright colors can make people feel happy. Another study shows that wearing green can make people feel comfortable because it is the color of nature. Yellow, the color of the sun, can bring people happiness. One more study shows that colors like black and grey can make people sad. But there are some problems with these studies, because people from different cultures have different ideas about dressing and colors.
In a word, “dopamine dressing” shows that we can wear colorful clothes to get more dopamine and feel good. Dressing is more than just a fashion. It’s also a way of showing ourselves.
