You turn around and ,sure enough, someone was looking right at you!Parapsychologists(灵学家) say that humans have a natural ability to sense when someone is looking at them. To research whether such a “ six sense” really exists, Robert Baker, a psychologist（心理学家） at the University of Kentucky, did two experiments.In the first one, Baker sat behind unknowing people in public places and stared at the backs of their heads for 5 to 15 minutes. The subjects (受试者) were eating, drinking, reading, studying, watching TV, or working at a computer. Baker made sure that the people could not tell that he was sitting behind them during those periods. Later when he questioned the subjects, almost all of them said they had no sense that someone was staring at them.For the second experiment, Baker told the subjects that they would be stared at from time to time from behind in a laboratory setting. The people had to write down when they felt they being stared at and when they werent. Baker found the subjects were no better at telling when they were stared at and when they werent.Baker concludes that people do not have the ability to sense when they are being stared at. If people doubt the outcome of his two experiments, said Baker, “I suggest they repeat the experiments and see for themselves.”（1）Whats the aim of the two experiments for? A . Prove why humans have a sixth sense.B . explain when people can have a sixth senseC . show how people act while being watched in the lab.D . study whether humans can sense when they are stared at.（2）What sense does parapsychologists say that humans have ?

A . People are born with a sixth sense.B . the experiments support parapsychologists idea.C . the subjects do not have a sixth sense in the experiments.D . people have a sixth sense in all places.3. （8分）阅读理解After arriving in New Jersey, US, for a one-year cultural exchange program, I noticed that many local people love Chinese culture. I felt like sharing our culture with them. As one of the 13th-generation disciples of Chen-style tai chi, I set up a tai chi club for local primary students. My tai chi program lasted for 10 weeks, with classes taking place every Tuesday.I have been in several cultural exchange programs before, but I havent really worked with little kids. It was a little intimidating for me at first. Kids are extremely noisy and active. It was challenging enough just to take control of the class. In the beginning, we could only go over a few gestures during each class, as I spent most of my time working on class discipline (纪律).However, as the class went on, we grew more and more familiar with each other. Slowly, I found the fun and sense of achievement that lies under the kids nervousness and tiredness. Watching the kids learn tai chi under my instruction was exciting. Nothing made me happier than seeing their smiles after learning a new gesture. With each punch, kick and stretch, I could sense their progress and their interest in learning. They asked me many questions about tai chi.This experience also improved my leadership. I realized that it was important to unite the whole class and encourage kids to help one another when they meet difficulties. I will try my best to spread tai chi culture here.（1）What can we infer from Paragraph 1? A . The author is good at tai chi.B . Foreigners have no interest in tai chi.C . There are many tai chi clubs in New Jersey.D . The author went to New Jersey many years ago.（2）What was the biggest challenge for the author while teaching primary school students? A . The age gap.B . Language ability.C . Class discipline.D . Cultural differences.（3）The third paragraph mainly describes _. A . what the author taughtB . the difficulties that the author metC . what the author gained through teachingD . why the author decided to teach kids tai chi（4）The author thought that his experience was _. A . Intimidating.B . Terrible.C . Boring.D . Meaningful.4. （5分）下面文章中有五处需要添加小标题。请从以下选项(AF)中选出符合各段意思的小标题。选项中有一项是多余项。 Savannah City Guide_If you want to spend the night in Savannah, you have lots of places to choose from.
