22、o a room and catch people looking at you. Theyre staring, right? Not always. The fear that people are staring is often - 5 -your brain playing tricks on you. Researchers at the University of Sydney have discovered that when your brain is unsure of what youre seeing, it tells itself someone is lookin

23、g at you and perhaps even passing judgment.“Judging if others are looking at us may come naturally, but its actually not that simple our brains have to do a lot of work behind the scenes,” said lead researcher Colin Clifford, a professor of psychology at the University of Sydney.Our brains determine

24、 if someone is looking at us by figuring out where their eyes are pointing and the direction of their head, but without all the necessary information, the brain fills in the blanks using information from prior (以前的) experience.Researchers tested this by creating images of faces and asking test subje

25、cts where they believed the people pictured were looking. They intentionally made it difficult to determine where the figures eyes were pointing. The test subjects brains made a lot of assumptions during the test.“It turns out that were built to believe that others are staring at us, especially when

26、 were uncertain,” Clifford said. “So gaze perception doesnt only involve visual cues (暗示) our brains generate assumptions from our experiences and match them with what we see at a particular moment.”The study concludes that the adult nervous system incorporates (合并) prior experiences with informatio

27、n about a persons gaze and applies it to a situation its unfamiliar with.Your brain does this every day outside of the laboratory, especially when its hard to see someones eyes, such as at night or when the person is wearing sunglasses.There are some reasons to worry about whether or not someone is

28、looking at you. After all, fear and vanity (自负) are both important elements of the human psyche.“Direct gaze can signal dominance or a threat, and if you perceive something as a threat, you would not want to miss it,” Clifford said. “So assuming that the other person is looking at you may simply be

29、a safer strategy.”When someone looks at you, it may also be a sign that they want to communicate, so your body goes on alert, anticipating the interaction.So remember: youre not being paranoid (多疑的 ). Youre just built that way.24. Which of the following information do we use when we decide that othe

30、rs are staring atus?a. our previous experience b. where their heads are pointingc. where their fingers are pointing d. their facial expressionsA. ab B. bc C. ac D. bd- 6 -25. Why did the researchers use images of faces to test subjects?A. To test whether their theories were correct.B. To make sure w

31、hat they were seeing were the same faces and stares.C. To make it easier to locate where the figures eyes were pointing.D. To give them necessary information to judge whether they were being stared at.26. We worry about whether or not someone is looking at us _.A. to protect ourselves B. for fear of

32、 not reacting wellC. for fear of hurting their vanity C. to avoid losing the opportunity to make friends27. What is the authors tone in the last paragraph?A. Critical. B. Comforting. C. Humorous. D. Encouraging.CAs a child growing up in southern California in the mid-1950s, one of my greatest dreams

33、 was to go to the newly opened Disneyland. Unfortunately, neither of my parents drove, and Disneyland was located out in the orange groves (小树林) of Anaheim. Even if we found the rides, the cost was more than my family could afford.In June 1956, my sister graduated from high school. As a gift, one of

34、 her girlfriends parents took them to Disneyland. I was happy for my sister but upset that I wouldnt be going. After all, no sister wants her little brother tagging along (紧跟).After I had spent a few days moping around, my sister told my parents that I could go with her and her friend if I had the m

35、oney for admission and ride tickets. I dont know where my parents found the money, but I soon had enough for admission and one “A to E” ride ticket book. That week, I counted down the hours until the day that I would go to the home of Mickey, Donald, and my favorite Goofy.My day at Disneyland was a

36、joyful blur of rides and attractions and one moment Ill never forget. As I exited the adventurous Jungle Boat ride, I noticed a long line of kids waiting for something. I soon discovered that several of the Mickey Mouse Club Mouseketeers were signing autographs (签名). When I looked to see who was the

37、re, my heart almost stopped. It was my first true love, Annette Funicello! I waited for what seemed like forever until it was finally my turn to approach the table where the Mouseketeers were sitting. I still remember Annette smiling at me, asking for my name and then signing a picture for me.As I w

38、as exiting the Mouseketeer area, a big man stopped me and asked who my favorite Disney character was. I told him, and he quickly sketched (素描) a drawing of Goofy and signed it for me. That man was Roy Williams, a cartoonist who appeared on the Mickey Mouse Club.- 7 -Over the years, I lost my autogra

39、phed photo of Annette, but I still have my drawing of Goofy. I take it out occasionally to remember that wonderful day of my childhood. My wife recently had the sketch framed (装框) for my 65th birthday. It is now prominently (显眼地) displayed in our home. Friends often ask if the drawing has any value.

40、 I always tell them that its priceless.28. What had made it impossible for the author to go to Disneyland?A. Disneyland was too expensive for his family.B. His parents couldnt afford the time off to travel.C. Disneyland was too far away from his home.D. His sister didnt want to take him.29. When the

Varieties of rides and attractions.C. Getting autographs from Annette Funicello.D. Receiving a signed sketch from Ro

42、y Williams.31. Why does the author always tell friends that the drawings priceless?A. Because he had the drawing valuated.B. Because it carries the best memory of his childhood.C. Because it reminds him how much his family loved him.D. Because Roy Williamss drawing and signature is no longer availab

43、le.DBig dogs apparently die younger than smaller ones mainly because they age quickly, researchers say.Normally, larger mammals live longer than smaller ones; for instance, elephants can get up to 70 years old in the wild, while house mice reach only 4 years. But the opposite seems true when you com

44、pare animals within one species in mice, horses and perhaps even humans.We can especially see how much it hurts to have a bigger body with dogs, a species that comes in various shapes and sizes. The heaviest known dog may have been Zorba, an English breed that weighed 155 kilograms, while the smalle

45、st dog alive may be Meyzi which is less than 110 grams.Large breeds often die young compared with smaller ones, with a 70-kilogram Great Dane having an average life span (寿命) of about 7 years, while a 4-kilogram toy poodle can expect to live up to 14 years.To figure out the possible tradeoffs of lar

46、ge size, researchers figured out at what age dogs from 74 breeds died, using data from more than 56,000 dogs that visited veterinary (兽医 ) teaching hospitals. The researchers focused on why large dogs lived shorter lives on average.The scientists found that large breeds apparently aged more quickly;

47、 the - 8 -speed at which the risk of death increased with age was greater with larger breeds than smaller ones. Indeed, among dog breeds, an increase of 2 kilograms in body mass leads to a loss of approximately 1 month of life expectancy. “Their lives seem to end in fast motion,” said researcher Cor

48、nelia Kraus, a biologist at the University of Gttingen in Germany.The investigators now want to look at the growth and health histories of a large number of dogs and figure out the leading causes of death for large dogs. For instance, bigger canines apparently suffer from cancer more often, which could make sense; large dogs grow more than smaller breeds do, and cancer is rooted in abnormal cell growth.These new findings might be able to help unravel (解密) the biological links between growth and death, the scientists
