When there are some strangers in front of us, which of them will we trust?

According to a new study in the online PLOS One, people make their decisions to trust others largely based on their faces. Your appearance can do a lot for you, especially if you are in the financial(金融) industry. The more trustworthy you look, the more likely people will buy what you’re selling.

Researchers from Britain’s University of Warwick Business School, University College London, and Dartmouth College, US, did a number of experiments.

The research team used computer software to make 40 faces, from the least to the most trustworthy-looking.

The study said that the difference between a trustworthy face and one that isn’t as trustworthy comes from features that look slightly angry or slightly happy, even when the face is at rest. However, a slightly happy face is more likely to be trusted.

Researchers gave participants some money and asked them which face they trusted to invest the money. Then researchers gave some good and bad information about the people with these faces, and asked the participants again whom they trusted.

The results showed that even if they got different information, the participants didn’t change their choices. They were still more likely to invest their money with the more trustworthy-looking faces.

Chris Olivola, one of the study’s authors, said in the University of Warwick’s press release: “It seems that we are still willing to go with our own instincts(本能) about whether we think someone looks like we can trust them. The temptation(诱惑) to judge strangers by their faces is hard to resist.”

(　　)1. Which of the following can be a proper title for this passage?

A. What kind of face do you trust?

B. Who did the experiments?

C. Why do you trust him or her?

D. Why did they do the experiments?

(　　)2. According to the study, which of the following faces is most likely to be trusted?

A. A sad face.  B. An angry face.

C. A crying face.  D. A smiling face.

(　　)3. Which of the following about the experiment is TRUE?

A. The trustworthy faces were given good information.

B. Researchers took photos of the 40 people’s faces in college.

C. Participants liked to choose the faces with good information.

D. Most participants gave their money to the trustworthy-looking faces.

(　　)4. What did the researchers learn from their experiment?

A. People can’t refuse temptations.

B. People often judge strangers by their faces.

C. People do things with their instincts all the time.

D. People don’t trust strangers with sad faces.

Ⅵ.完形填空

The following term,I　13　an ASL class.The professor was deaf and any talking was　14　.I soon realized that the silence was not unpleasant.　15　,if there had been any talking,it would have caused us to learn less.Now,I appreciate the silence and the new way of communication it opens.

Ⅴ.【文章大意】  本文是一篇说明文,介绍了一项调查发现人们会对笑脸更信任,会把钱给值得信任的脸,由此研究人员得出结论:人们往往会看脸来判断陌生人。

1. A　主旨大意题。根据第一段“When there are some strangers in front of us, which of them will we trust?”可知,本文介绍的是你会相信什么样的脸,故选A项。

2. D　细节理解题。根据第五段中“However, a slightly happy face is more likely to be trusted.”可知,笑脸最可能被信任,故选D项。

3. D　细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“They were still more likely to invest their money with the more trustworthy-looking faces.”可知,人们会把钱给更值得信任的脸,故选D项。

4. B　细节理解题。根据最后一段中“The temptation(诱惑)to judge strangers by their faces is hard to resist.”可知,人们往往会看脸来判断陌生人,故选B项。

Ⅵ.【文章大意】  本文是一篇记叙文。文章围绕着人与自我的主题,讲述了作为正常人的作者开始认识并喜欢上美式手语的故事。

1.A　由上文中的“…explore new aspects of life…”可知,所填词与explore(探索)在词义上相近,故选searching(寻找)。planning计划;natural自然的;formal正式的。

2.B　根据语境可知,此处指作者发现了朝更好的方向改变自己大学经历(experience)的东西。另外,第三段中的“…I had experienced…”也给出了提示。progress进步;major专业;opinion观点。

3.C　后面一句提到作者全家及他所有的朋友都有听觉,因此他之前从没有想学(learn)手语的强烈愿望。另外,第四段中的“I only learned how to…”也给出了提示。choose选择;read阅读;create创造。

4.D　既然作者和家人及朋友都有听觉,那么在作者与别人的所有交往中口语(spoken language)已经足够了。official language官方语言;foreign language外语;body language肢体语言。

5.A　由下文的内容尤其是最后一段中的“Now,I appreciate the silence…”可知,作者后来爱上了美式手语,但是刚开始的时候作者没有发现自己对它的热爱(love)。concern关注;goal目标;request请求。

6.B　由空格前的watched(观看)和后面的the hand movements(手部的动作)以及what I saw(我所看见的)可知,作者是在观看美式手语俱乐部的成员表演(perform)他们对一首歌的诠释。record记录;recite背诵;discuss讨论。

7.A　根据语境可知,这里指的是无语言交流的想法(idea)。idea与前面的the hand movements并列。amount数量;dream梦想;reason原因。

8.B　根据“…I had experienced…”可知,它指的是作者过去的经历,故选past。in the past“过去”,是固定搭配。in the end最后;in the course经常与of连用,意为“在……期间”;in the distance在远处。

9.D　由下文中的further以及最后一段中提到作者参加了美式手语学习班的课程可知,这种新颖让作者想要(want)了解更多。show展示;act表现;say说。

10.B　由第一段第一句中的explore可知,此处应选explore,指作者感受到了进一步探索的必要。exercise练习;express表达;explain解释。

11.A　由前面的being discouraged by(对……感到失望)可知,此处是说作者的进步缓慢(slow)。steady持续的;normal正常的;obvious明显的。

12.C　虽然作者在学美式手语方面进步缓慢,但他还是感到很兴奋,因此他把出席那些会议并尽最大可能多学看作重要的事情。attend a meeting“出席会议”,是固定搭配。另外,本段第一句中的drop in on one of ASL Club’s meetings也给出了提示。chair主持;sponsor赞助;organize组织。

13.D　后面讲的是课堂上的事情,由此可以推断出接下来的那个学期,作者参加了美式手语学习班的课程。register for“注册,登记”,是固定搭配,且符合此处的语境。miss错过;pass通过;give up放弃。

14.A　由空格前面的“The professor was deaf…”可知,在课堂上是禁止(prohibit)说话的。welcome欢迎;ignore忽视;repeat重复。

15.C　由后面主从句谓语动词的结构可知,此处用的是虚拟语气,也就是说所选的词表示的是一种相反情况的假设,故应选instead(相反)。
