1.It's natural to greet friends with a smile and a wave.(51)G But what happens if your face and body send mixed messages?Would someone be more likely to believe the look on your face or the way you hold your body?Scientists have recently tackled these questions.They found that when a person is looking at your face,she might not believe what she sees of your body language matches the feeling that your face shows.
(52)B Previously,they had found that the tone of a person's voice can be more important than the words that are spoken.For example,most people tend not to believe a person who says in a flat voice,"I'm so excited."
When it came to emotions conveyed by facial expressions and body language,most scientists suspected that the face was more important.To test if this was true,psychologists from the Netherlands and Boston showed people a number of pictures of isolated faces and isolated bodies(with faces blurred out) that showed anger or fear.(53)F
An angry face had low eyebrows and tight lips.A scared face had high eyebrow and a slightly open mouth.(54)E A scared body had arms forward and shoulders square,as if ready to defend.
These results told the researchers that mixed signals can confuse people.Even when people pay attention to the face,body language subtly influences which emotion they read.
(55)D And if you want to be understood,it helps to avoid sending mixed messages.
A.Scientists feel new to study the mixed message that confuses people.
B.Studying such mixed messages is nothing new for scientists.
C.Body language can sometimes be misunderstood in different culture backgrounds.
D.So,your body language is important for telling people how you feel.
E.An angry body had arms back and shoulders at an angle,as if ready to fight.
F.They also showed pictures in which angry or scared faces were paired with angry or scared bodies.
G.When you do this,your face and body work together to show your friends that you're happy to see them.
分析 虽然面部表情可以作为判断的一些依据,但是肢体语言对表达情感也是十分重要;如果两者不协调,则会造成让人怀疑甚至误解.
解答 51-55 GBFED
51题答案:G G选项是对第一句It's natural to greet friends with a smile and a wave."用微笑与挥手跟朋友打招呼是很自然的一件事"的补充,说明我们打招呼的时候微笑与挥手的意义所在.
52题答案:B 根据后面的 Previously,they had found that…"之前,科学家已经发现…"可知"研究这样的混合信息不是一件新鲜事",故本题答案为B选项.
53题答案:F 因为该实验是为了研究"混合信息",故前面先展示的是 isolated faces and isolated bodies"单独的面部照片和单独的肢体照片",后面再展示"面部与肢体配对的照片";故本题答案为F选项.
54题答案:E 前面第一个是An angry face had low eyebrows and tight lips."愤怒的脸眉毛较低而嘴唇紧",故后面与之对应的第一个是An angry body…"愤怒的肢体…";故本题答案为E选项.
55题答案:D上面一段提到Even when people pay attention to the face,body language subtly influences which emotion they read.即使当人们关注脸的时候,肢体语言也会隐隐约约地影响到他们所读到的情感.因此可总结出"肢体语言对于表达情感是很重要的",故本题答案为D选项.
