3.Have you ever had 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 5to 15minutes.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,almost all 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 weren't.Baker found that the subjects were no better at telling when they were stared at and when they weren't.
Baker concludes that people do not have the ability to sense when they're being stared at.If people doubt the outcome of his two experiments,said Baker,"I suggest they repeat the experiments and see for themselves."
42.The aim of the two experiments is toC.
A.explain when people can have a sixth sense
B.show how people act while being watched in the lab

分析 全文大意:
你曾经有过被人注视着这种奇怪的感觉吗?你转过身的确有人正好在看着你.灵学家说人类有一种本能当有人正在看着他们时,他们能感觉得到.为了研究这种"第六感"是否真正的存在.肯塔基大学大学的心理学家Robert Baker做了两个实验.在第一个实验中Robert Baker在公共场合坐在陌生人的后面盯着他们的脑后部五到十分钟.这些受试者正在吃东西、喝水、读书、学习、看电视或操作电脑.Robert Baker确保人们在这期间不能告诉受试者他正坐在他们身后.然后当他询问受试者时,他们几乎所有的人都说没有感觉到有人在盯着他们.在第二个实验中Robert Baker告诉受试者在实验环境中,他们将不时地受到来自身后的注视.受试者要记录下来他们何时感觉受到注视,何时没有感觉受到注视.Robert Baker发现受试者说不出他们何时受到注视,何时没有受到注视.Robert Baker最后得出结论当人们正被人注视时,他们没有感知能力.Robert Baker说"如果人们怀疑他的两个试验的结果,可以重复这两个试验亲自看一下."
解答 答案:
42、C 细节理解题 根据第二段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"灵学家说人类有一种本能当有人正在看着他们时,他们能感觉得到.为了研究这种"第六感"是否真正的存在.肯塔基大学大学的心理学家Robert Baker做了两个实验,"可知这两个实验的目的是研究当人们正被人注视时,是否具备感知能力,故选C
43、B 词义猜测题 If people doubt the outcome of his two experiments,said Baker,"I suggest they repeat the experiments and see for themselves."这句话的意思是Baker说如果人们怀疑他的两个试验的…,可以重复这两个试验亲自看一下,根据划线单词的上文Baker concludes that people do not have the ability to sense when they're being stared at的意思是Robert Baker最后得出结论当人们正被人注视时,他们没有感知能力,可推知outcome指试验得出的结论,即试验结果result,故选B
44、D 推理判断题 根据第四段Baker found that the subjects were no better at telling when they were stared at and when they weren't.可知Robert Baker发现受试者说不出他们何时受到注视,何时没有受到注视,故选D
45、C 推理判断题 根据第五段 Baker concludes that people do not have the ability to sense when they're being stared at可知Robert Baker最后得出结论当人们正被人注视时,他们没有感知能力,即受试者并不具有"第六感"故选C
