18、) - unless youre from the UK.

And many people didnt bother to tell them apart，until earli

19、er this month when grime stars like Stormzy and J Hus led this years Mobo “music of black origin”, an award in the UK. Just like UK electronic music and hip-hop, from which grime drew influence, it mostly reflects the thoughts of young people. But different from hip-hop, grime singers sing in dialec

20、ts with strong accents, giving a special flavor to their songs.Lady Leshurr，known as the “Grime Queen”, said that she once tried to hide her accent, as she didnt want people to judge her.

21、this is the soul of grime music: be yourself.Grime has challenged modem music in its production beauty and its expressions. Also different from the hip-hop culture, which usually focuses on being rich, grime singers pay more attention to social phenomena like those who suffer from disasters and the

22、gap between the rich and poor.Although still quite a young music type, grime seems to be getting loved by more and more people. In 2016, the English grime artist Skepta won the Mercury Prize with his album Konnichiwa, beating big names like David Bowie and Radiohead.However, no matter whether grime

However, how these expressions are understood might depend on where you are from

27、.Research by scientists from the University of Glasgow in the UK has challenged the traditional view of how the face expresses emotions. Many scientists had believed that there were six basic emotions that people from all cultures recognized. These were happiness, sadness, fear, anger, surprise and

28、disgust(厌恶). However, the University of Glasgows work now suggests that the human face only had four basic expressions of emotions. This is because some pairs of emotions are impossible to tell apart, especially when they are first shown on the face. Fear and surprise, both share wide-open eyes. The

29、 facial expressions for anger and disgust also look the same.So if our faces are only able to express four basic emotions, how do we communicate much more complex feelings? The study found that the way expressions are understood is different in different cultures. Lead researcher Rachael Jack was st

30、udying this because “facial expressions were considered to be universal”, she explained. However, while looking at how people from the East and West recognize different parts of the face, they found that although there are some common features across cultures, the six basic facial 6expressions of em

31、otion are not recognized universally.“We said we dont know what a disgust face looks like in China, so the best way to go about that is to make all combinations of facial movements and show the Chinese people and ask them to choose the ones they think are disgust faces.” With the software they devel

32、oped, they discovered that in the early stages of signaling emotion, fear and surprise, and anger and disgust, were often confused. Jack explained that this development of facial expressions is related to biology and social situations.What has caught peoples interest is the cross-cultural aspect of

33、the work. “This study shows which emotions we share, and which are different in different cultures,” Jack said. This finding could help us develop new communication technologies, for example ones that use video-calling programs like Skype. When you talk to someone in Japan in the future, a programme

34、 could “read” your facial expressions and then “translate” them for the Japanese person. The Japanese person would see the Japanese facial expression on their screen. In this way, people from different cultures could understand each other better.28.From the first two paragraphs, we can conclude that

35、 new research _. .A. has shown that our faces only show happiness, sadness, fear and surpriseB. has suggested that we can recognize six basic emotions from facial expressionsC. has shown that traditional opinions of facial expressions of emotions are correctD. has found that people may not recognize
