Ask three people to look out the same window at a busy street comer and tell you what they see. Chances are you will receive three different answers. Each person sees the same scene, but each perceives(察觉) something different about it.
Perceiving goes on in our minds. Of the three people who look out the window, one may say that he sees a policeman giving a motorist a ticket. Another may say that he sees a rush-hour traffic jam at the intersection. The third may tell you that he sees a woman trying to cross the street with four children in tow. For perception(感知) is the minds’ interpretation of what the senses — in this case our eyes — tell us.
Many psychologists(心理学家)today are working to try to determine just how a person experiences or perceives the world around him. Using a scientific approach, these psychologists set up experiments in which they can control all of the factors. By measuring and charting the results of many experiments, they are trying to find out what makes different people perceive totally different things about the same scene.
1.Perceiving is an action that takes place ______.
A.in our eyes | B.only when we think very hard about something |
C.only under the direction of a psychologist | D.in every person’s mind |
2.People perceive different things about the same scene because ______.
A.they see different things | B.they can not agree about things |
C.some have better eyesight | D.none of these |
3. Psychologists study perception by ______.
A.setting up many experiments | B.asking each other what they see |
C.looking out of windows | D.studying people’s eyes |
4.The best title for this article is ______.
A.How We See | B.Learning About Our Minds Through Science |
C.What Psychologists Perceive | D.How To Become An Experimental Psychologist |

I was looking out the window that summer afternoon. It was as if the trees were inviting me to join in their impromptu(即兴的) dances as they played hide and seek in the misty fog. A strange stillness surrounded me as I sat in the hotel hall, waiting for the taxi to take me to the music camp site. I had flown for sixteen hours to attend a music camp in Michigan for three weeks. Excited more than I was nervous, I felt ready for new meetings.
A week passed like a breeze, and my cello(大提琴) notes were becoming sweeter. I took a break to the school shop with another Chinese friend. As I picked out my newfound favorite American candy bar, I noticed my friend chatting with another Chinese girl. I soon joined in with natural ease, and discovered that we were the only other Asians at the camp. It felt like a good chance that our friendship was formed forever.
During the orchestra rehearsals(排演), Mr. Lastrapes, a genius at discovering the slightest off-key note(走音的音符), persuaded me to relax my tightened arms with his soft voice and gentle manners, thereby allowing me to release notes that I could never create before. We continued to have two hours of rehearsals every day in a large hall that could hold 4,000 people. What we had instead was an audience of ducks and geese outside that swam so freely and happily to our melody(曲调). How an unusual experience I had!
All things, good or bad, must come to an end, when I waited to board the plane, I was looking out the airport window, thinking back at the heartfelt moment of farewell with my friend, Caroline, at the camp gates. We had promised to meet again, but how and when, she was returning to Kentucky, and I, to China. The cello strings were not long or tight enough to keep us connected.

A.He felt excited to find out the great fun in nature.

A.the author was happy to find out his favorite snack.
B.the author felt good to have friends to accompany.
C.the author was lucky to make some lifelong friends.
D.the author found it easy to communicate with Asians.

A.He wanted to live a free and happy life like them.
B.He wanted to show he was relaxed and enjoyed the process.

B.They were not sure music could connect each other.
