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.

Lots of people love to keep pets, but they don’t know how to communicate with their pets. Are you one of the pet keepers? If your answer is “yes”, here are some suggestions for you.

1.Talk with your pet.

Although your pet may not exactly understand your words, he can at least pick up on the tone of your words and your body language when you talk to him. For example, if you speak with him in a stern voice, he might pick up on the fact that you are unhappy with his behavior.

2.Use non-verbal(非语言的) communication.

Your non-verbal communication is just as important as verbal communication. Non-verbal communication is often used in training your pet to do a certain activity. For example, if you are sitting on your horse, you would use your legs and hands to command your horse to turn around. When you teach your dog to sit, you would actually combine verbal and non-verbal communication (hand signals) to give him the ‘sit’ command.

3.Avoid punishing your pet.

Punishing your pet is never a good idea. Punishment can make your pet fearful of you and possibly lose trust and respect that he has for you. What’s more, some pets, like cats, do not necessarily make the connection between your punishment and the behavior you are punishing them for.

1.The Chinese meaning of the underlined word “stern” in this passage is probably“________”.

A.和善的 B.严厉的 C.柔和的 D.耐心的

2.You can use your________to command your horse to turn around.

A.legs and hands B.arms and feet C.leg and feet D.arms and hands

3.What can we know from the passage?

A.The writer tells us four suggestions in the passage.

B.The writer doesn’t mention “horse” in the passage.

C.The writer thinks it necessary to punish pets.

D.Your pet cat doesn’t understand why you punish him.

4.In which part of a magazine can we read the passage?

A.Animal World. B.Animal Stories. C.Body Languages. D.Body Parts.

5.The best title of the passage may be “________”.

A.How to Talk with Pets B.How to Take Care of Pets

C.How to Communicate with Pets D.How to Train Dogs and Cats

Nowadays, many young people enjoy communicating with others online. They do this through social networking websites. However, the internet may be a dangerous place, and these young people may not even realize it.

The key to being safe online is to keep certain pieces of information private. If you do any banking online, for example, it is important to note that your date of birth may be used by banks to identify （识别）you. Banks need to know your ID number and your address as well, but to check your identity, they might ask you for your date of birth. If a criminal were to gain access to（进入） your account（账号） at a bank, the one thing that he would not have would be your birth date. These days, however, a lot of people put their dates of birth on social networking websites so that their friends will wish them a happy birthday. Unluckily, doing so could end up getting them into trouble.

Another way people share too much information is by mentioning inappropriate （不合适的）things that they have done. For employers who worry about the reputation （声望）of their company, they would prefer not to see photos publicly posted of their employees doing anything inappropriate. However, many young people today enjoy gaining attention by posting some pictures that may not be completely acceptable on the internet.

So the key to being safe online is to limit what you share. Remember that the whole world can see it if you post your private information online.

1.According to the passage, what is the key to being safe online?

A.Avoiding doing banking online B.Checking your identity regularly.

C.Keeping certain information private D.Stopping using social networking websites

2.A lot of people put their dates of birth online in order to ___________.

A.Have fun B.receive birthday greetings

C.do banking D.save money

3.According to the passage, some employers do not want to see their employees post anything about　 ___________ online.

A.past inappropriate behaviors B.their hobbies

C.the company D.their dates of birth

4.Which of the following statements is true?

A.Banks hardly ask you for your date of birth.

B.All employees are worried about their company’s reputation.

C.It is safe to share as much information as possible online with your friends.

D.A criminal cannot gain access to your bank account without your date of birth.

A.limit the information they share online B.keep their home address secret
