As a result, facial expressions that had been considered universally recognizable cannot be used to reliably convey emotion in cross-cultural situations. The researchers studied cultural differences in the recognition of facial expressions by recording the eye movements of 13 Western Caucasian and 13 East Asian people while they observed pictures of expressive faces and put them into categories: happy, sad, surprised, fearful, disgusted, angry, or neutral. They pared how accurately participants read those facial expressions using their particular eye movement strategies. It turned out that Easterners focused much greater attention on the eyes and made significantly more errors than Westerners did. “The cultural difference in eye movements that they show is probably a reflection of cultural difference in facial expressions,” Jack said. “Our data suggest that whereas Westerners use the whole face to convey emotion, Easterners use the eyes more and mouth less.”In short, the data show that facial expressions are not universal signals of human emotion. From here on, examining how cultural factors have diversified these basic social skills will help our understanding of human emotion. Otherwise, when it es to municating emotions across cultures, Easterners and Westerners will find themselves lost in translation. 11. The discovery shows that Westerners .A. pay equal attention to the eyes and the mouthB. consider facial expressions universally reliableC. observe the eyes and the mouth in different waysD. have more difficulty in recognizing facial expressions 12. What were the people asked to do in the study?A. To make a face at each other. B. To get their faces impressive. C. To classify some face pictures. D. To observe the researchers faces. 13.

The data collected from the study. 14. In parison with Westerners, Easterners are likely to . A. do translation more successfullyB. study the mouth more frequentlyC. examine the eyes more attentivelyD. read facial expressions more correctlyBHe may not have an S across his chest but this dog is most certainly a hero. Harley, who was rescued from a puppy mill four years ago, was named the American Humane Associations xx American Hero Dog. Harley, who is missing an eye and has other medical issues from his time at the mill, is now a spokes-dog against puppy mills. He serves as the adorable furry face of the Harley to the Rescue campaign, which raises funds for the National Dog Mill Rescue, according to a press release. The pup was rescued back in xx and adopted by Rudi and her husband, Dan. It was just four years ago that he was pulled from the cage in the puppy mill and left to die, Harleys owner, Rudi, said during the awards show at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles this past weekend, according to Today. .

The dog was one of eight finalists up for the American Hero Dog and was chosen as the winner through public votes. The finalists all won $ 1,500 to be donated to one of American Humane Associations charity partners, with Harley receiving another $ 5 ,000 to go toward his charity partner, New Leash On Life. According to the release, Harley spent 10 years at the puppy mill, and endured rough treatment there, which led to his many medical issues. He lost his eye as a result of his cage being power-washed with him inside. The dog isnt just the face of his campaign, he also goes on rescue missions and makes public appearances at events and schools to raise awareness for puppy mills. This incredible work is all due to the dogs fighting spirit.

Bad environmental conditions, such as drought, flood, heat and other stresses, affect yields (产量) more than crop pests and diseases. We are trying to find a way to equip plants with the ability to tolerate environmental stress and maintain high yields, said Stephen Howell, a professor of genetics and cell biology. Plant cells produce proteins (蛋白质) and ship them to different parts of the cell. Under normal conditions, these proteins are folded into their normal, healthy structures as they are produced. When a plant is under stress, its cells produce poorly folded or unfolded proteins. Then a built-in system senses this and “sets off an alarm in the cell,” said Howell. In response to the alarm, another protein (IRE1) starts working and creates a different process which activates (激活) the stress response genes whose products bring about defensive measures that help the plant survive. “As it turns out, responses that are activated under stress conditions actually inhibit the growth of plants,” said Howell. “This allows them to preserve their energy to survive the stress conditions.” For plants in the wild, this response is a help for survival, he said. In production of agriculture crops, however, this response reduces yields. “You dont want crop plants to stop growing,” Howell said. “You want them to continue to grow and produce even though they are under stress.”With the new understanding of this stress response, the next step may be to silence the alarm system, said Howell. “What may be important is to disable some of these stress responses. That may make the plant more productive under stress conditions.”19. According to the text, what causes an alarm in the plant cells? A. The folded proteins.B. The changed proteins. C. The defensive measures.D. The stress response genes.20. What does the energy preserved in the plants under stress conditions do? A. It helps the plants to survive.B. It helps to maintain high yields. C. It keeps the plants growing.D. It helps to produce proteins.21. Which word is closest to the meaning of the underlined word “inhibit” in Paragraph 5? A. Prevent. B. Start.C. Continue. D. Promote.22. How does Howell intend to make crop plants maintain high yields under stress conditions? A. By making crop plants keep more energy.B. By making crop plants stop growing. C. By making the alarm system stop working.D. By making the alarm system respond quickly.第二节（共 5 小题，每小题 2 分，满分 10 分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。Four simple ways to stay positiveTrying to stay positive, both in good times and bad, is a great way to improve your quality of life. Try these four methods on a daily basis.1. Dont think a lot about negativity. Of course, staying positive 24 hours a day, seven days a week is a bit difficult. Letting things get to you is normal, and its actually healthy to cry or express frustrations once in a while.Its when those negative moments control your life that your emotional balance is at risk. _23_ However, dont give that sadness another second in your day.2. _24_What you put into your body directly affects how you feel on the outside. Fill yourself with good, healthy foods like fruits and vegetables and limit snacking. Exercise is equally of great importance. Take a few days out of your week for at least half an hour of activity, and try to stick to a routine. _25_ 3. Be kind to others._26_ Making someones day a bit brighter not only puts a smile on his or her face, but also yours as well. Remember to smile and treat each person with pity and respect. Good deeds are contagious (传染的) , and your positive attitude may spread among others.4. Take it one day at a time.Being positive isnt an instant thing. Its a steady effort that we follow every hour of every day. _27_ Instead, focus on living in the moment and doing what you can to make each moment better.A. Eat healthily and stay fit.B. Take your lunch breaks outside.C. Dont worry about what the future may bring.D. Gratitude helps you appreciate life in bad times.E. Take a few minutes to feel sad and accept what happened.F.
