It is impossible to build up ones body by climbing.B. People can only learn the skill of climbing outdoors.C. It is always easy to see holding places in climbing.D. People can fairly interested in climbing nowadays.34.Why does the author write this passage?A. To prove the basic need for climbing.B. To encourage people to climb mountains.C. To introduce the sport of wall climbing.D. To tell people where to find gyms.BPeople from East Asia tend to have more difficulty than those from Europe in distinguishing facial expressionsand 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 Weserners do,Eastners fix their attention on the eyes.“We show that Eastners and Westners look at different face features to read facial expressions,”Jack said.“Westners look at the eyes and the mouth in equal measure,whereas Eastners 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 recongnizable cannot be used to reliably convey emotion in cross-cultural situations.The researchers studied cultural differences in the recongnition of facial expressions by recording the eye movements of 13 Westners 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 Eastners focused much greater attention on the eyes and made significantly more errors than Westners did.“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 Westners use the whole face to convey emotion,Eastners 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 cutural factors have diversified these basic social skills will help our understanding of human emotion.Otherwise,when it comes to communicating emotions across cultures,Eastners and Westners will find themselves lost in translation.35.What can be the best title for the passage?A. Cultural Differences in Reading Emotions.B. Effective Methods to Develop Social Skills.C. How to Increase Cross-cutural Understanding.D. The Eye as the Window to the Soul.36.What were the people asked to do in the study?A.To get their faces impressive.B. To classify some face pictures.C. To observe the researchersfaces.D. To make a face at each other.37.What does the underlined word “they”in Paragraph 6 refer to?A. The researchers of the study.B. The errors made during the study.C. The data collected from the study.D. The participants in the study.38.In comparison with Westners ,Eastners are likely to_.A. study the mouth more frequentlyB.examine the eyes more attentivelyC.read facial expressions more correctlyD. do translation more successfullyCA study published in todays edition of the Science finds that，overall，species are moving to higher latitudes(纬度)at l05 miles per decadeThe rate is two or three times faster than when it was last measured，in 2020“The climate is shifting everything toward the north and higher altitudes，”says Chris Thomas，the author on the paper and a professor at the University of York in the United KingdomAnimals，plants and insects closer to the equator are starting to find it too hot and are retreating upwards.”The study was an analysis covering 764 species moving north or south depending on which hemisphere(半球)they were inAlthough each species moved at different rates and some even moved towards the equator，overall the strong trend was toward the polesFor the most part，its not that animals are walking，hopping or winging their way north，Thomas saysRather，individuals at a species southernmost range are breeding(繁殖)less successfully while individuals in that same species northernmost range are breeding more successfullyThe result is that the entire species moves up“There is practically no basis to doubt the fact that species are shifting as a function of rapidly changing climate，”says Jeremy Kerra professor of biology at the University of Ottawa in Canada, who did not participate in the studyOne species Kerr studies is the bog copper, a beautiful little butterfly that appears to practically be on an expressway to the North PoleIt has moved more than 90 miles north in the past decadeFor farmers，what crops they grow and livestock they keep is also beginning to shift, says Philip Thornton，an agricultural economist in Nairobi，KenyaIn Africa，small farms are changing the kinds of animals they keepIn Northern Kenya，there is a move in some places away from the traditional cattle to camels，which are more drought resistant；the price of adult camels there is increasing quite rapidly39Which picture can describe the result of the study?40According to the third paragraph，we can learn a fact that .Athe animals are moving northward so fastBthere are too many species on the polesCfewer babies are born in the southDnot all animals move to higher latitudes41The example of the bog copper is mentioned to tell us that it .Acan fly as fast as an expressBis moving northwards at a high speedCblocks the way toward the North PoleDprefers to travel on an express42In the last paragraph，farmers prefer camels .Abecause of changes in temperatureBas a result of animals moving northwardsCwith the purpose of earning more moneyDdue to the changes in crop growingDDyslexia is a problem that restricts the ability to recognize words and connect sounds with letters when people readPeople with this learning disorder may also have problems when they writeDyslexia is not related to eyesight or intelligenceThe problem involves areas of the brain that process languageBrain scientists are studying whether they can predict which young children may struggle with reading to provide them early helpJohn Gabrieli at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology is leading the study of five-year-olds in about twenty schools in the Boston areaThey studied in the schools with kindergartensAnd for all the children joining in the study，they give them a brief set of paper-and-pencil tests to look at which children appear to be at some risk for struggling to readSo far，fifty of them have been examined in a scanner，a special machine，to show brain activityWritten tests are not always able to identify dyslexia or other problems，while brain scans may offer a more scientific way to identify problemsAnd with reading problems，early identification is importantWhen it comes to helping children overcome reading difficulties，the younger the child, the more effective they areReading problems are not usually identified until a child is in the third or fourth gradeThe later children are recognized as poor readers，the less treatment can helpAnd，as Professor Gabrieli points out，poor reading can make education a struggleReading is everythingEven math and science have textbooksWhile the children are given tasks related to reading，the brain scans measure the extent to which certain parts of the brain become active while the children do the workThe scientists say they are pleased with early results from the studybut have a long way to go43The most obvious symptom with a Dyslexia sufferer is .Ahaving a bad memory Blosing the abilityChaving poor eyesight Dshowing low IQ44The purpose of the study led by John Gabrieli is Ato provide early help to the children with DyslexiaBto apply their scanning machine to medical fieldCto test childrens ability to read and writeDto find out how brain processes language45The function of the scanner is to Aprovide the children with necessary picturesBcheck the result of the paper and pencil testsCfind an effective way to improve ones readingDidentify how the brain works while reading46What factor is most important in helping children with dyslexia according to the passage?AMedicine BDiet CTiming DScannerESometimes youll hear people say that you cant love others until you love yourself.Sometimes youll hear people say that you cant expect someone else to love you until you love yourself.Either way,youve got to love yourself first and this can be tricky.Sure we all know that were the apple of our parents eyes,and that our Grandmas think were great talents and our Uncle Roberts think that we will go to the Olmpics.But sometimes its a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about ourselves.If you find that believing in yourself is a challenge,it is time you build a positive self-image and learn to love yourself.Self-image is your own minds picture of yourself.This image includes the way you look,the way you act,the way you talk and the way you think.Interestingly,our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about us.Unfortunately,most of these images are more negative than they should be.Thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to changing your self-image and your whole world.The best way to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your successes.That is ,make a list if you need to,but write down all of the great things you do every day.Dont allow doubts to occur in it.It very well might be that you are experiencing a negative self-image because you cant move past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself.Well,roll up your sleeves and make a change of it as your primary task.If you think youre silly because you arent good at math,find a tutor.If you think youre weak because you cant run a mile,get to the track and practice.If you think youre dull because you dont wear the latest trends,buy a few clothes.But remember ,just because you think it doesnt mean its true.The best way to get rid of a negative self-image is to realize that your image is far from objective,and to actively convince yourself of your positive qualities.Changing the way you think and working on those you need to improve will go a long way towards pro
