People born in autumn live longer than those born in spring and are less likely to fall chronically ill when they are older, according to an Austrian scientist. Using census(人口普查)data for more than one million people in Austrian, Denmark and Australia, scientists at the Max Plank Institute for Demographic(人口统计的)Research found the month of birth was related to life expectancy over the age of 50. Seasonal differences in what mothers ate during pregnancy, and infections occurring at different times of the year could both have an impact on the health of a new-born baby and could influence its life expectancy in old age. "A mother giving birth in spring spends the last stage of her pregnancy in winter, when she will eat fewer vitamins than in summer," said one of the scientists. "When she stops breast-feeding and starts giving her baby normal food, it"s in the hot weeks of summer when babies are inclined to infections of the digestive system. " In Austria, adults born in autumn lived about seven months longer than those born in spring, and in Denmark adults with birthdays in autumn outlived those born in spring by about four months. In the southern hemisphere, the picture is similar. Adults born in the Australian autumn lived about four months longer than those born in the Australian spring. The study focused on people born at the beginning of the 20th century, using death certificates and census data. Although nutrition at all times of the year has improved since then, the seasonal pattern persists. The passage is mainly about______.
A. why people born in autumn are free from chronic illness
B. how the seasonal pattern affects the health of new-born babies
C. how the month of birth is related to life expectancy
D. how nutrition in different seasons influences life expectancy

某市食品厂和另一市某商场签订了一份长期供货合同。最初的一段时间内,食品厂都能够按照合同的约定交付货物。但是后来由于受到外部的冲击,食品厂的效益下滑,同时由于机器设备老化,生产出来的产品的质量下降。因此供给商场的产品多为次品,导致消费者大量投诉,严重影响了该商场的经济效益,给该商场造成的直接的经济损失大约15万元。商场多次与食品厂交涉,但是均未能就损害赔偿的具体数额达成一致,后来双方商定,将该合同纠纷提交某市仲裁委员会仲裁,并且签署了仲裁协议。请回答: 如果在仲裁的过程中,仲裁委员会认为双方当事人之间的买卖合同无效,此时仲裁委员会能否根据双方当事人就合同纠纷达成的仲裁协议继续进行仲裁
The fact that blind people can "see" things using other parts of their bodies apart from their eyes may help us to understand our feelings about colour. If they can sense colour differences then perhaps we, too, are affected by colour unconsciously. Manufacturers have discovered by trial and error that sugar sells badly in green wrappings, and that blue foods are considered unpleasant, and the cosmetics should never be packaged in brown. These discoveries have grown into a whole discipline of colour psychology that now finds application in everything from fashion to interior decoration. Some of our preferences are clearly psychological. Dark blue is the colour of the night sky and therefore associated with passivity and calm, while yellow is a day colour with associations of energy and incentive. For primitive man, activity during the day meant hunting and attacking, while he soon saw red as the colour of blood and rage and the heat that came with effort. And green is associated with passive defence and self-preservation. Experiments have shown that colours, partly because of their psychological association, also have a direct psychological effect. People exposed to bright red show an increase in heartbeat, and blood pressure; red is exciting. Similar exposure to pure blue has exactly the opposite effect; it is a calming colour. Because of its exciting connotations(含义), red was chosen as the signal for danger, but closer analysis shows that a vivid yellow can produce a more basic state of alertness and alarm, so fire engines and ambulances in some advanced communities are now rushing around in bright yellow colours that stop the traffic dead. The most suitable title for this passage may be______.
A. The Practical Use of Colour
B. Colour and Feelings
Colour and Its Connotations
D. The Discipline of Colour Psychology
