【题目】 When I was a kid, I used to spend hours listening to Adam Carolla and Dr. Drew Pinsky on their Sunday night radio show Loveline. I listened so often that I began to use one of their well-known phrases — “good times” — in my daily conversations. Scientists have a name for this phenomenon: behavioral mimicry.

You’ve probably experienced this before: after spending enough time with another person, you might start to pick up on his or her behavior or speech habits. You might even start to develop your friend’s habits without realizing it. There is a large body of literature concerning this sort of phenomenon, and it regularly happens for everything from body gesture to accents to drink patterns (模式). For example, one study found that young adults were more likely to drink their drink directly after their same-sex drinking partners, than for the two individuals to drink at their own paces.

And the effect isn’t limited to real-life face-to-face activities. Another study found that the same you-drink-then-I-drink pattern held even when watching a movie! In other words, people were more likely to take a drink of their drinks in a theater after watching the actors on the screen enjoy a drink. At least I don’t feel so strange anymore, having picked up on Adam Carolla’s “good times”.

New research published today in the journal PLOS ONE indicates that the same sort of behavioral mimicry is responsible for social eating, at least among university-age women of normal weight. That’s right: the young women were more likely to adjust their eating according to the eating pace of their same-sex dining companion.

As with most experiments, these results raise a whole new set of questions. However, the finding that behavioral mimicry may at least partly explain eating behavior is important, and has real effects on health. The researchers note that “as long as people don’t fully recognize such important influences on intake (eating), it will be difficult to make healthy food choices and keep a healthy diet, especially when people are exposed to the eating behavior of others”.

1The author takes his own example of using “good times” to_______.

A.show the influence of the hosts’ wordsB.express his love for radio shows

C.prove the popularity of the showD.introduce the topic of the passage

2It can be inferred from the last paragraph that _______.

A.behavioral mimicry is beneficial to our health

B.behavioral mimicry decides our eating behavior

C.people have realized the effect of behavioral mimicry on our health

D.It’s impossible to keep a healthy diet without knowing behavioral mimicry

3What is probably the author’s purpose of writing this passage?

A.To introduce behavioral mimicry and its influence.

B.To appeal to readers not to fall into others’ habits.

C.To advocate healthy food choices among readers.

D.To draw readers’ attention to popular radio shows.

【题目】 If you are thinking about redecorating the home, you are probably searching about interior (室内的) decoration ideas. Redecorating presents a great chance to reflect your personality by displaying your style and interests. It will be easy to redecorate the home if money is not a restriction. 1Here are some tips on how to do so:

Search some magazines. You can get dozens of home interior decoration ideas from countless magazines and TV programs. Some programs tend to show less costly interior decoration ideas.2It's a good way of comparing different styles. Here you can make distinction between broad styles, country, contemporary, etc.

Fond of primitive style.If you are fond of primitive or traditional style, warmer colors are the best for the room. These colors go with all kinds of cloth of old style and wooden furniture.3

Modern style. If you like modern styles, use brighter colors instead of white and off white. Home decoration of these styles includes minimum disorder and a lot of free space and light. Leather furniture matches the room: white or black with contrasting throw cushion (靠垫) per seating place.4

5 This often occurs anyway, especially if the people give you furniture or you inherit (继承 )the same. If you wish to combine different pieces of furniture from different styles, you need to bridge a gap between them. This Call be done easily with materials like throw pillows, wall hangings and carpets.

A. A white one on a black sofa suits here.

B. There is nothing wrong in mixing two styles.

C. Another effective and affordable option is by surfing the internet.

D. The combinations and possibilities in the first decoration are endless.

E. Autumn colors go well to produce warm, friendly and pleasant atmosphere.

F. Nevertheless, the question for most is how to redecorate the home within limited budget.

G. The walls tend to have one or two pieces of wall art rather than 6 to 10 of the older time.
