27、imes has a page online called “Fixes,” which focuses on what people are doing to fight social ills. As media researcher Karen McIntyre of Virginia Commonwealth University explains, these are all parts of a news movement called constructive journalism. Constructive journalism is different from “feel-

28、good news,” like a fireman rescuing a cat. Instead, constructive journalism offers a more complete but appealing version of the news, says McIntyre. In her opinion, besides focusing on solutions, constructive journalism includes reporting on the historical and social setting of specific news inciden

29、ts, using reliable data to look at longer-term trends, and avoiding interview techniques that create drama without increasing understanding. - 7 -However, newspapers thrive on eyes on the page, and editors may be less interested in constructive journalism if they arent convinced that itll attract th

30、eir readers. While McIntyre acknowledges those concerns, research has shown the opposite to be true. For example, one study found participants who read an online story that focused on approaches to poverty spent more time on the page than those reading a similar story without focusing on solutions.T

31、here is much we dont know yet about how this kind of journalism affects behavior. The research is relatively young, though at least one of McIntyres studies showed an interesting result: people who read inspiring news stories were more willing afterwards to sign up for generous actions related to th

35、ders.DIt is widely believed that smiling means a person is happy, and it usually - 8 -occurs when theyre meeting another person or group of people. However, a new study led by body language expert Dr Harry Witchel shows this isnt always the case.In his research, he asked 44 participants aged 18-35 t

36、o play a geography quiz game consisting of nine difficult questions so that they often got the answer wrong. Seated participants interacted with a computer alone in a room while their faces were video recorded.After the quiz, the participants were asked to rate their experience using a range of 12 e

37、motions including bored, interested and frustrated. Meanwhile, their facial expressions were then computer analysed frame by frame in order to judge how much they were smiling based on a scale of between 0 to 1.Dr Witchel said: “According to some researchers, a real smile reflects the inner state of

38、 cheerfulness or amusement. However, Behavioural Ecology Theory suggests that all smiles are tools used in social interactions, meaning cheerfulness is neither necessary nor rich for smiling. Our study showed that in these Human-Computer Interaction experiments, smiling isnt driven by happiness; it

39、is associated with subjective engagement(主观参与), which acts like a social fuel for smiling, even when socialising with a computer on your own.”Surprisingly, participants didnt tend to smile during the period when they were trying to figure out the answers. However, they did smile right after the comp

40、uter game informed them if their answer was correct or wrong. Participants smiled more often when they got the answer wrong. Dr Witchel added: “During these computerised quizzes, smiling was greatly increased just after answering questions incorrectly. This behaviour could be explained by self-ratin

41、gs of engagement, rather than by ratings of happiness or frustration.”32. Why did Dr Witchel use difficult questions in the quiz game?A. To make it hard for participants to answer them correctly.B. To make the answer period last as long as possible.C. To discover the most intelligent participants.D.

42、 To create a stressful situation for participants deliberately.- 9 -33. What can we infer from what Dr Witchel said in paragraph 4?A. Other researchers opinion of a real smile is quite right.B.

46、ult topics, and just have fun. 36 Carol Bishop says, “you need to recognize if they are enjoying it.” There are also rules about what is okay and not okay to tease your child about. 37 Instead, tease kids about safe topics, like a messy room, or things that can be easily changed.Teasing should also
