A lesson in cell metabolism-energy and photosynthesis mentions that “chlorophyll absorbs most red, orange, blue, and violet light.

...Michael Pattison Mrs.Bowden American Literat February 26, 2015 Many authors use symbolism to have an object represent a different, significant meaning then the obvious meaning. In the novel The Great Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald uses symbolism quite often through the novel, such as the color of white to show the determination of the characters when it is actually used to cover up their dishonesty. Throughout the novel the color white is used many times as a symbol, such as the time Gatsby wore an all white suit during his encounter with Tom. Gatsby’s plan was very evil and selfish and it is very ironic that he chose that color, since they represent innocence. This was his way of hiding all of the things he did it the past that doesn’t make him look like a supporting type of such. He spent the past four years try to get rich by selling alcohol so he could be able to support someone like Daisy, but he did it in the wrong ways. While he was do this, Tom had the right idea and impressed Daisy without the use of money. When Jordan said “we’re all white here,” she was using it as a symbol to say that they all have nothing to hide because white is a color that represents innocence. When the argument was reaching its end, Gatsby’s not so innocent character was revealed. “That’s one of his little stunts. I picked him up for a bootlegger the first time I saw him, and I wasn’t far wrong,” said Tom. Gatsby’s true character finally came out and the man who appeared to be generous...

...Which is the better colour, black or white? Colour is known as the ‘fill’ of objects, environment and even the skin of some people around us. It is defined as a visual sensation differing with wavelengths which results from the light that they may emit or transmit. My question is; ‘which is the better colour out of black or white?’ Black may not be considered a colour while white might and vice versa; however the attractiveness and appeal of these two ‘colours’ to those who perceive it is my main focus. Regardless of which colour is more suitable to a person’s standards; I am answering this question by thoroughly comparing the two different colours and will attempt to reach a conclusion of which is the dominant colour. First off I will start with the colour black. Black is normally affiliated with feelings of depression which can be reflected through various things such as accessories or clothing. Black can cause powerful feelings of isolation and imply an inconspicuous nature of somebody who is wearing all black so they are not recognised. Black is a pure colour; the opposite of colours filled with vibrancy and passion and contains a much more direct approach. When black is worn, it can be perceived as sophisticated e.g. a person in an all-black suit for work or rebellious e.g. the common teenage punk rock attire. The colour black is known to stimulate an atmosphere of mysteriousness due to the secretive nature of the colour. Black is the most common colour in sophisticated...

Each color has many aspects to it but you can easily learn the language of color by understanding a few simple concepts which I will teach you here. Color is a form of non verbal communication.

...Juxtaposition of White and Red What are colors? Why do we see them? How is it possible for our brain to make a connection with colors by having emotions? Color is part of the visible light spectrum and the reason colors appear is due to the pigment that is not absorbed by an object. The description of the reflection allows the eye to see the color and have the brain cells interpret the meaning behind that specific color. The effect of seeing and interpreting colors allows the human brain to cause an emotional response. Knowing that color is the base of how the human race judges and determines what to do next will help humans survive. A great example is when a tomato is bright red, our brain classifies it as ripe and ready for picking. But when the vegetable is green your brain convinces itself that the veggie is not ripe for picking to consume. When a teacher tells his/hers students to write an essay they are given a blank word document. The white page represents the new beginning of the student’s thoughts. Other times a blank page is represented as a thought that has yet to be composed, waiting for a start. Colors have various meanings in different cultures around the world. The most common representation of Red is evil or a sin. While White is commonly recognized as goodness and purity. Learning how dissidences of colors affect one’s emotion can help you show how you feel toward a loved one or help identify the meanings of color correctly. White: pure, new, seraphic...

...My Best Day Ever It seems to me that birthday celebrations’ become less interesting as time passes. There are no more party hats, balloons, cake, ice cream, and the joyful sound of “Happy Birthday.” I guess that’s why we hold all the good memories inside our heart, so whenever there’s a bad issue that may come up, we can reminisce on the past. In fact, birthday celebrations in my family were rare because my grandmother was raising eight children in a three bedroom house by herself, and she wasn’t able to provide certain things we needed at times. I do remember one special birthday that made me realize how important family means to me. On March 22, 1979, it was a warm, beautiful, breezy, summer day, and I could hear the chirping of baby birds in their nest. Upon my face shined the bright sun through my bedroom window. This day represented my birth right of turning fourteen years old, and I needed to figure out what to wear on this special occasion. As I walked toward my closet door, there was a breeze of warm spring sunflowers gathering in each corner of my bedroom. As I inhaled this delightful smell, I thought of my favorite sunflower dress to wear. The length went below my knees and it had two straps on each shoulder. The base color of my dress was pure white cotton material with medium sunflowers patterns around the bottom. I chose my flat flip-flop scandals and brushed my hair into a ponytail with a white ribbon tied in a bow. At that moment in my life, I felt...

...On this very special day, moon cakes are definitely the star on the dinner table for people across China. And here in the capital, the unique Beijing-style moon cakes have satisfied the taste buds（味蕾） of locals for generations. They may not look as fancy as Cantonese-style moon cakes, but the Beijing versions have their own unique features. The handmade, hard-crusted moon cakes are made of rock sugar, walnut kernels（核桃仁）, pumpkin seeds（南瓜子） and qinghongsi（青红丝）, or candied tangerine peel（陈皮） slices. "The most popular ones among Beijingers are zilaihong and zilaibai. Zilaihong uses red sugar in the dough, while zilaibai uses white sugar. The taste is simple but pure," said Chi Xiangdong, former Owner of Dao Xiang Cun. And there’s an interesting story behind zilaibai and zilaihong. Legend has that long ago a serious plague hit Beijing. To help the sick people, Chang’e the mythical Moon Goddess sent her servant the Jade Rabbit, which made two kinds of medicine, one red and one white. The medicine gradually evolved into zilaibai and zilaihong moon cakes, which preserved the red and white colors. Although it’s just a legend, ever since then, zilaibai and zilaihong moon cakes have always been linked to rabbits. "It’s actually a kind of toy for the kids, but it evokes memories from the past and definitely adds more fun to the festival," Chi Xiangdong said. Now, with more variations of moon cakes on the market, traditional Beijing moon cakes have begun...

...All of these ads have a strong use of pathos and ethos, they use stuff and persons with an important well known background, like the Einstein picture, who is famous for his energy theories and they took a good advantage of that, and by adding a little humor they can get more attention. The way they are fighting the war against France is pretty much as trying to make them look more important than France itself, like if France is lost and its dependant from Red Bull. By making war to France, they are getting more fame. All of these pictures contain black and white to make the viewer see the Red Bull drink better than the ad, that way they can know what is first, and then will focus their attention into the picture. Also, they are in black and white because they are telling you how boring everything is without Red Bull, and the drink Red Bull is in its colors blue, red, and silver, meaning that if you drink Red Bull your day will brighten up. In the picture with the old man is lifting into the air with his bicycle, there is other people in the background, and they are still in the ground, they cannot fly, because they don’t have Red Bull. So if you don’t get Red Bull you can’t fly and everyone loves flying, which is the background meaning for energy. They used an old man for this ad to represent that no matter what age you are, you can always get lots of energy. In the French ad they are saying that if you’re French, you...
