There are many colors in nature. But do you think that a color has weight? Let's do a test.
First, put two objects with the {#blank#}1{#/blank#} weight into two boxes. Then cover the boxes. Third, wrap (包裹) one box with a red piece of paper, the other with white. Now hold the boxes {#blank#}2{#/blank#} your hand one by one. Which one is {#blank#}3{#/blank#} ? It is certain that you will think the red one is heavier. Why do you think so? A scientist did many {#blank#}4{#/blank#} and found that different colors have different weights in a man's mind.
Also, scientists say that people accept the colors they like, and {#blank#}5{#/blank#} the colors they hate. So your body and mind will be {#blank#}6{#/blank#} by using the colors you like. Or you'll be nervous {#blank#}7{#/blank#} even get ill. For example, you {#blank#}8{#/blank#} blue and hate red. If you stay in a room with red windows and wallpaper for two hours, you'll feel you have been there for {#blank#}9{#/blank#} hours. But if the room is blue, you'll feel you have been there for only an hour, And, if a person walks {#blank#}10{#/blank#} of a blue room and into a red room, his temperature will rise. That means our body temperature will change with different colors.
There are nine National Parks in England.
Are National Parks in England the same as those in other countries?
Many National Parks around the world cover huge areas of land where nobody lives, but in England most of the countryside within them is used for farming and other activities.
Are there any problems in the National Parks?
There are about 110 million visitors to the parks every year. As a result, many popular towns and villages are overcrowded, and car parks and roads are full of traffic. Also, life is difficult for people who live there, because more and more gift shops and cafés are opened instead of those everyday shops. Another main problem is litter which is dangerous to animals.
How can people help?
All National Parks in England call on the Countryside Code, which tells people how to take care of their environment. If people follow these rules, the National Parks will be protected.
