5．Can you believe your eyes？A recent experiment suggests that the answer to that question may depend on your age．
Martin Doherty，a psychologist at the University of Stirling in Scotland，led the team of scientists．In this experiment，Doherty and his team tested the perception（观察力） of some people，using pictures of some orange circles．The researchers showed the same pictures to two groups of people．The first group included 151 children aged 4 to 10，and the second group included 24 adults aged 18 to 25．
The first group of pictures showed two circles alone on a white background．One of the circles was larger than the other，and these people were asked to identify the larger one．Four-year-olds identified the correct circle 79 percent of the time．Adults identified the correct circle 95 percent of the time．
Next，both groups were shown a picture where the orange circles，again of different sizes，were surrounded by gray circles．Here's where the trick lies in．In some of the pictures，the smaller orange circle was surrounded by even smaller gray circles-making the orange circle appear larger than the other orange circle，which was the real larger one．And the larger orange circle was surrounded by even bigger gray circles-so it appeared to be smaller than the real smaller orange circle．
When young children aged 4 to 6 looked at these tricky pictures，they weren't fooled-they were still able to find the bigger circle with roughly the same accuracy（准确性） as before．Older children and adults，on the other hand，did not do as well．Older children often identified the smaller circle as the larger one，and adults got it wrong most of the time．
As children get older，Doherty said，their brains may develop the ability to identify visual（视觉的） context．In other words，they will begin to process the whole picture at once：the tricky gray circles，as well as the orange circle in the middle．As a result，they're more likely to fall for this kind of visual trick．

A．children's and adults'eye-sight

C．people's ability to see accurately

B．only adults over 18got it right 95% of the time with gray ones around
C．children at 6got it wrong 79% of the time with no gray ones around
D．adults got it right most of the time with gray ones around
27．According to the passage，we can know thatC．
A．a smaller orange circle appears bigger on a white background
B．an orange circle appears bigger than a gray one of the same size
C．a circle surrounded by bigger ones looks smaller than its real size
D．a circle surrounded by other circles looks bigger than its real size
28．Why are younger children not fooled？D．
A．Because they are smarter than older children and adults．
B．Because older people are influenced by their experience．
C．Because people's eyes become weaker as they grow older．
D．Because their brain can hardly notice related things together．

4．Everyone strives to be a great person，kind and caring．But for some，that's not always the case．（36）CA few of these harmful characteristics are offered for you below．If you happen to realize that you possess any of them-quit!

（39）EYou are definitely unattractive when constantly asking why others don't see you as important as you think they should．For instance，your two friends went somewhere without you．It doesn't matter to them，but to you it does．Get over it．Your friends?lives don?t stop when you're not around．

2．One day，a patient came to see me．He worked as a waiter in a restaurant and his problem was acid reflux （胃酸倒流），a disease that influences as many as 40 percent of Americans，a marked increase in recent years．Reflux can lead to esophageal （食道的） cancer，which has increased by about 500percent since the 1970s．The drugs we use to treat reflux don't always work and may even increase the risk of developing cancer when used long term．
What is responsible for these worrying developments？For one，our poor diet，with its huge increases in the intake of sugar，fat，soft drinks，and unhealthy foods．But another important fact has been overlooked：dinnertime．Over the past twenty years，the time of my patients'evening meals has become later and later．Dinner--already pushed back by longer work hours--is often further delayed （推迟） by activities such as shopping and exercise．
In my experience，the single most important treatment for reflux is to avoid late eating．A patient with reflux came to see me because her father and uncle died of esophageal cancer，and she was afraid of getting it too．Her nightly routine （常规） included a 9p．m．dinner with at least two bottles of red wine．The reflux was serious，and changes were needed．
She listened，then did not come back to see me for a year．"For the first two months，I just hated you，"she told me，"and for the next two months，I was having some trouble eating．I guessed I was going to die of esophageal cancer．"Then she added，"You know，we're the reason that it's not so easy to get 6p．m．reservations （预约） at the good restaurants anymore．"
To stop the increase in reflux disease，we have to stop eating at least three hours before bed．As for my waiter patient？I told him to eat dinner before 7p．m．Within six weeks，his reflux was gone．

39．The disease the waiter caught isA．
A．on the rise

B．He asked her to change her eating habits．
C．He couldn't find a way to deal with her problem．
D．He couldn't make her healthy again within a year．
42．The author writes the text to tell usD．
A．not to work late at night
