mary responded in typical teenage fashion. from that moment on, the very last thing i ever thought about doing was taking a typing course, she recalls. the show business thing worked out, of course. in her career, mary won many awards. only recently, when she began to write growing up again, did she regret ignoring her morn, i dont know how to use a computer, she admits. unlike her 1995 autobiography, after all, her second book is less about life as an award-winning actress and more about living with diabetes (糖尿病). all the money from the book is intended for the juvenile diabetes research foundation (jdrf), an organization she serves as international chairman. i felt there was a need for a book like this, she says. i didnt want to lecture, but i wanted other diabetics to know that things get better when were self-controlled and do our part in managing the disease. but she hasnt always practiced what she teaches. in her book, she describes that awful day, almost 40 years ago, when she received two pieces of life-changing news. first, she had lost the baby she was carrying, and second, tests showed that she had diabetes. in a childlike act, she left the hospital and treated herself to a box of doughnuts (甜甜圈). years would pass before she realized she had to grow u p -again-and take control of her diabetes, not let it control her. only then did she kick her three-pack-a-day cigarette habit, overcome her addiction to alcohol, and begin to follow a balanced diet. although her disease has affected her eyesight and forced her to the sidelines of the dance floor, she refuses to fall into self-pity. everybody on earth can ask, why me? about something or other, she insists. it doesnt do any good. no one is immune (免疫的) to heartache, pain, and disappointments. sometimes we can make things better by helping others. ive come to realize the importance of that as ive grown up this second time. i want to speak out and be as helpful as i can be.

and a new report published online in current biology explains why. rachael jack, university of glasgow researcher, said that rather than scanning evenly(均匀的) across a face as westerners do, easterners fix their attention on the eyes. we show that easterners and westerners look at different face features to read facial expressions, jack said. westerners look at the eyes and the mouth in equal measure, whereas easterners favor the eyes and neglect (忽略) the mouth. according to jack and her colleagues, the discovery shows that human communication of emotion is more complex than previously believed. 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 compared 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 did westerners. 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 comes to communicating emotions across cultures, easterners and westerners will find themselves lost in translation. 66. the discovery shows that westerners . a. pay equal attention to the eyes and the mouth b. consider facial expressions universally reliable c. observe the eyes and the mouth in different ways d. have more difficulty in recognizing facial expressions 67. 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. 68. what does the underlined word they in paragraph 6 refer to?a. the participants in the study. b. the researchers of the study. c. the errors made during the study. d. the data collected from the study. 69. in comparison 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 correctly70. what can be the best title for the passage? a. the eye as the window to the soulb. cultural differences in reading emotionsc. effective methods to develop social skillsd. how to increase cross-cultural understanding 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。i was ten when i first sat with my grandmother behind the cashier（收银台）in her
