Have you ever had the strange feeling that you were being watched? You turned around and, sure enough, someone was looking right at you!

Some parapsychologists (心理学家) say that humans have a natural ability to sense when someone is looking at them. To study whether such a "sixth sense" really exists, Robert Baker, a psychologist at the University of Kentucky, performed several experiments.

In the first one. Baker sat behind unsuspecting people in public places and stared at the backs of their heads for 5 to 15 minutes. The subjects 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 suspects, almost all of them said they had no' idea that someone was staring at them. 

For the second experiment. Baker told subjects that they would be stared at from time to time from behind a two-way minor in a lab 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 than if they had just guessed.

Baker’s experiment concludes again that people do not have the ability to sense when they are being stared at. If you doubt the outcome of his two experiments, I suggest you repeat the experiments and see for yourselves.

 

60. The first experiment made by Baker shows that ____.

A. people can’t realize it when they are watched secretly

B. one can't sense other people’s watching when they are talking

C. people have no idea about the sixth sense of human beings

D. the sixth sense doesn’t work during the first 5 or 15 minutes

61. The second experiment differs from the first one in that ____.

A. the subjects were not directly stared at from time to time

B. the subjects had to write something down in a lab sitting

C. the subjects were good at guessing when they were stared at

D. the subjects were informed of the purpose of the experiment

62. What is the author's attitude towards the result of the experiment? ____.

A. Support           B. Doubt           C. Sympathy        D. Surprise

63. We can infer from the passage that ____.                       

A. it’s most probable that humans have six senses

B. the so-called sixth sense doesn’t exist in human beings

C. the experiments done by Baker hardly explain anything

D. people should make conclusions by themselves

Each spring brings a new blossom of wildflowers in the ditches (沟渠)along the highway. I travel daily to work. There is one particular    26    flower that has    27   caught my eyes. I’ve noticed it blooms only in the morning hours; the    28    sun is too warm for it. Every day for about two weeks. I see those beautiful    29   .
This spring I    30   a wildflower garden in our yard. “I can look out of the   31   window while doing the dishes and see the flowers. I’ve often thought those lovely blue flowers from the   32  would look great in that bed alongside other wildflowers. Everyday I    33  past the flowers thinking, I’ll stop on my way home and    34   them.” “gee (哎呀), I don’t want to get my good clothes dirty…” whatever the reason, I    35  stopped to dig them.
One day on my way home from work in my car, I was    36    to see the highway department had moved the ditches and the pretty blue flowers were    37  . I thought to myself, “You    38    too long. You should have done it when you first saw them  39   this spring. ”
A week ago, we were shocked and saddened to learn my older sister-in-law had a terminal brain tumor (肿块). She is 10 years    40   than my husband and unfortunately, because of age and distance. We haven’t been as    41   as we all would have liked. I couldn’t help but see the   42     between the pretty blue flowers and the relationship between my husband’s    43  and us. I do believe god has given us some time left to    44  some wonderful memories that will bloom every year for us.
And yes, if I see the blue flowers again, I’ll    45   and transplant them to my wildflower garden.
