[单项选择] Doesn’’t that sound terribly yellow to you
"I can’’t say. I’’m colour blind", was my flat-mate’’s response. And that was that for another twenty odd years, when by chance I came across an article in a newspaper on research into synaesthesia(共感觉) at a London hospital. At last, I understood my interpretation of the world through colour.

Synaesthesia is the subjective sensation of a sense other than the one being stimulated. For example, the sight of a word may evoke sensations of colour or the sound of music may also have a similar effect, as my taste.
