What does your face say?
How many different emotions do you think you can communicate to people with your face? Do you have the same facial expressions as people from different cultures?
New research suggests that there are only four basic facial expressions of emotion.However, how these expressions are understood might depend on where you are from.
Research by scientists from the University of Glasgow has challenged the traditional view of how the face expresses emotions. Until now, it was widely believed that six basic emotions — happiness, sadness, fear, anger, surprise and disgust (厌恶), were expressed and recognized across different cultures. However, the University of Glasgow’s work now suggests that the human face only has four basic expressions of emotion. This is because some pairs of emotions are impossible to distinguish, especially when they are first expressing on the face. Fear and surprise, for example,both share wide-open eyes. The 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 more complex (复杂的) feelings? The study found that the way expressions are explained is different in different cultures. Lead researcher Dr Rachael Jack was studying this because “facial expressions were considered to be general”, she explains. However, while looking at how people from the East and West look at different parts of the face during facial expression recognition, they found that although there are some common characteristics across cultures, the six basic facial expressions of emotion are not recognized by everyone.
“We said we don’t know what a disgust face looks like in China, so the best way to go about that is to make all combinations (组合) of facial movements and show to Chinese researchers and ask them to choose the ones they think are disgust faces.”
With the software they developed, they discovered that in the early stages of signaling emotion, fear and surprise, and anger and disgust, were often confused. Jack explains that these facial expressions have developed both from biology and social evolution(进化).
What interests people about the cross-cultural aspect of the research? “This work leads to understanding which emotions we share, realizing our differences and calling attention to our multicultural experiences.” This research could advise new ways of social communication that improve cross-cultural interactions.
1.What is the main purpose of the first paragraph?
A. To show interest in different cultures.
B. To express the worries about emotions.
C. To lead in the topic of facial expressions.
D. To give an example of facial expressions.
2.The word “distinguish” in Paragraph 3 probably means ______.
A. express B. explain C. differentiate D. develop
3.According to the passage, Dr Rachael agrees that ______.
A. facial expressions are easy to understand in Japan
B. the way expressions are understood is different in China
C. new ways of social communication can improve movements
D. it’s difficult to understand all the facial expressions of emotion
4.What can we learn from the passage?
A. We can express our emotions in four different ways.
B. Facial expressions of emotion can be discovered easily.
C. Facial expressions of emotion are from different countries.
D. Facial expressions are explained differently in different cultures.

Justin Bieber’s birthday wish has come true. The teenage star announced earlier this week that he wanted his fans to donate $17,000 to charity---so far the total of gifts that have poured in is more than $31000.
“I have had a great year and it is all because of the fans helping me live my dream,” said the young singer. “I’m turning 17 years old on Tuesday, and have so much to be grateful(感激的) for! So this year, I really want my birthday to be all about helping others. Instead of asking for gifts, I’m asking friends, family and fans to consider donating $17 for my 17th birthday to help make a change.”
Bieber asked his fans to donate to a charity that builds clean water projects in developing countries.
“Together, we’ve made a big difference for many causes. Did you know that about 4,500 kids die each day from waterborne diseases (水源性疾病)? By building clean water projects for villages that need them, we can prevent this! I want to make my birthday matter this year--- let’s make it so more kids can grow up to have a 17th birthday like me. Join me to make a change.
“I’m really so grateful for my family, friends and fans--- and I believe we can do something big to help bring clean water to people in need. Even if you don’t have $17 to give I just ask you to go out in your community and try and make a positive difference. Even the smallest act of kindness can go a long way.”
