Write a passage about how things affect your feelings.
An example :
Colors can affect my feelings. Different colors can change my feelings. When I feel sad, I usually put on bright-colored clothes, such as light green, red, yellow or orange. They will make me feel happy quickly. But when I want to calm down, I always look at blue things or put on blue clothes, because blue makes me feel quiet and calm. What’s more, brown makes me feel better at learning, and white makes me more helpful. And I remember not to wear dark-colored clothes when I feel sad.
