the strange feeling that you were being watched? you turned around and, sure enough, someone was looking right at you!parapsychologists (灵学家) say that humans have a natural ability to sense when someone is looking at them. to research whether such a “sixth sense” really exists, robert baker, a psychologist (心理学家) at the university of kentucky, did two experiments.in the first one, baker sat behind unknowing people in public places and stared at the backs of their heads for 5 to 15 minutes. the subjects（受试者）were eating, drinking, reading, studying, watching tv, or working at a computer. baker made sure that the people could not tell that he was sitting behind them during those periods. later, when he questioned the subjects, almostall of them said they had no sense that someone was staring at them.for the second experiment, baker told the subjects that they would be stared at from time to time from behind in a laboratory setting. the people had to write down when they felt they were being stared at and when they werent. baker found that the subjects were no better at telling when they were stared at and when they werent. baker concludes that people do not have the ability to sense when theyre being stared at. if people doubt the outcome of his two experiments, said baker, “i suggest they repeat the experiments and see for themselves.”58. the aim of the two experiments is to_.a. explain when people can have a sixth senseb. show how people act while being watched in the labc. study whether humans can sense when they are stared atd. prove why humans have a sixth sense59.

stared at and when they werent. b. could tell when they were stared at but couldnt tell when they werent. c. couldnt tell when they were stared at but could tell when they werent. d. couldnt tell when they were stared at or when they werent.61. what can be learned from the passage?a. people are born with a sixth sense.b. the experiments support parapsychologists idea.c. the subjects do not have a sixth sense in the experiments.d. people have a sixth sense in all places.daverage resources620 m3 waterif we put fresh water and sea water together, we can each have 620 m3 water. but remember, sea
