A study published in the journal, Science, has shown that body language provides a better signal in judging whether the observed subject has just gone through an intensely positive or negative ‎ experience.‎ To test highly intense faces, Dr. Hillel Aviezer and his colleagues presented test groups with photos of dozens of highly intense facial expressions in real－life situations.‎ In one study, they compared emotional expressions of professional tennis players winning or losing a point. To discover exactly how people view images, the researchers showed different editions of the pictures to three groups of participants: 1) the full picture with the face and body；2) the body with the face removed；3) the face with the body removed. Remarkably, participants could easily pick the losers from winners when they judged by the full picture or the body alone, but they only had a 50∶50 chance of being right when judging by the face alone. Strangely, the participants, who viewed the full image believed that it was the face, not the body, that revealed the person's emotions.‎ In an additional study, the researchers performed the same series of tests, asking viewers to examine a wider range of real－life intense faces. Again, viewers were unable to tell faces in positive situations from negative situations. The researchers also “planted” faces on bodies expressing positive or negative emotions. Sure enough, the researchers discovered that the emotion of the same face on different bodies was determined by the body on which it appeared.‎ ‎“These results show that when emotions become extremely intense, the difference between positive and negative facial expressions no longer seems clear，” says Aviezer. “The findings challenge classic behavioral models, in which the boundary between positive and negative emotions is clear.”‎ Aviezer adds, “The results may help researchers understand how body and facial expressions interact during emotional situations. For ‎ example, individuals with autism (自闭症) may fail to recognize facial expressions, but if trained to read important body language signs, their_performance may significantly improve.”‎ 语篇解读：如果你认为通过检测一个人的面部表情可以判断他在股市是好运还是运气很差，那你就重新再考虑一下吧。研究发现，在人们大喜大悲时，身体语言比面部表情更能表达人们的心情。‎ ‎1．What can we learn from the first study?‎ A．The participants were divided into three groups.‎ B．Half the participants judged right by the body alone.‎ C．The participants couldn't judge by the face alone.‎ D．All participants believed faces showed emotions.‎ ‎[解析]　细节理解题。根据文章第三段的第二句“To discover exactly how people... three groups of participants”可知参与者被分成了三组。故A项正确。‎ ‎[答案]　A ‎2．Which method was used in both studies?‎ A．Judging facial expressions of people in the stock market.‎ B．Picking losers from winners among professional tennis players.‎ C．Showing pictures with the face, body or both to participants.‎ D．Putting faces on bodies for positive or negative emotions.‎ ‎[解析]　推理判断题。根据文章第三段和第四段的第三句“The researchers also ‘planted’ faces on bodies expressing positive or negative emotions.”可知C项正确。‎ ‎[答案]　C ‎3．What does the underlined part “their performance” refer to?‎ A．Picking losers from winners.‎ B．Understanding different emotions.‎ C．Recognizing facial expressions.‎ D．Reading body language signs.‎ ‎[解析]　词义理解题。根据文章最后一段的最后一句“individuals with autism (自闭症)．.. their performance may significantly improve”可知自闭症的人可能不能识别面部表情，不过如果被培训阅读身体语言符号的话，他们的表现可能会得到很大的改善。故B项正确。‎ ‎[答案]　B ‎4．What can we conclude from the study?‎ A．One cannot judge someone's emotions by facial expressions.‎ B．The boundary between positive and negative emotions is clear.‎ C．It's easier to tell positive emotions from negative ones if they're tenser.‎ D．Body language is a better choice to judge intense emotions.‎ ‎[解析]　推理判断题。根据文章第一段“... has shown that body language provides a better signal in judging whether the observed subject has just gone through an intensely positive or negative experience.”可知D项正确。‎ ‎[答案]　D B ‎(2017·山西省太原市高三年级二模)Some scientists will say it is impossible to read minds. They will also tell you that you can make educated guesses on what a person might be thinking or feeling. Perhaps there really is nothing mysterious about the power to read minds. Perhaps it is simply human sense based on observation and educated guesses after all, but that's really a useful ability to learn.‎ Learn body language. How a person moves and holds their hands, and even what their eyes are doing are actually telling about what is going on inside their head. For example, pupils (瞳孔) tend to grow larger when you are interested in or excited about something. If you are talking to someone and making eye contact, finding their pupils are large and round, chances are that they are not feigning interest in the conversation. Someone biting their nails is probably nervous. Someone who folds their arms across their chest when they are not cold is probably trying to put a barrier between you and themselves.‎ Learn to mentally put yourself in another's place. Scientists have recently discovered that your brain has neurons (神经元) that become active when you watch someone do something the same as we did the action ourselves. So when you are able to open yourself to understand how other people are feeling, you can figure out reasons and predict future actions, reactions, even thoughts.‎ Sometimes you can use Extrasensory Perception (ESP) (超感知觉) to read someone's mind. This does not mean you will literally be able to read their mind like a book. Instead, you will receive impressions or feelings, which are difficult to explain.‎ To improve your ESP abilities, take up meditation (冥想). Because meditation helps enable you to purposely put your brain in a state of relaxed awareness where you will be more successful in reading people and receiving impressions.‎ Practice and combine all of these steps. You will soon find yourself able to read people's minds.‎ 语篇解读：本文主要介绍了读懂他人心思的方法和策略。‎ ‎5．What is the passage mainly about?‎ A．The ways of reading people's minds.‎ B．The steps of learning body language.‎ C．The necessity of learning to read people's minds.‎ D．The relationship between minds and body language.‎ ‎[解析]　主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Practice and combine all of these steps. You will soon find yourself able to read people's minds”并结合全文的整体内容可推知，本文主要讲的是读懂他人的心思的方法和策略，故选A。‎ ‎[答案]　A ‎6．What does the underlined word “feigning” mean?‎ A．Expressing. B．Pretending.‎ C．Finding. D．Declaring.‎ ‎[解析]　词义猜测题。根据第二段第三句“For example, pupils (瞳孔) tend to grow larger when you are interested in or excited about something”并结合“finding their pupils are large and round”可知，瞳孔放大说明人们真的而不是假装对某事感兴趣，由此可推知画线词表示“假装”的意思，故选B。‎ ‎[答案]　B ‎7．Why can you read someone's mind when you mentally put yourself in his/her place?‎ A．You suddenly have the ability to understand his or her feeling.‎ B．Your imagination ability and your past experience are combined.‎ C．Some neurons in your brain improve your observation ability.‎ D．Your past similar experiences make some neurons in your brain active.‎ ‎[解析]　细节理解题。根据第三段第二句“Scientists have recently discovered that your brain has neurons (神经元) that become active when ‎ you watch someone do something the same as we did the action ourselves”可知，当你看到某人和你有相似的经历时，你大脑中的神经元会活跃起来，故选D。‎ ‎[答案]　D ‎8．How does meditation help with mind reading?‎ A．By making educated guesses on minds.‎ B．By learning to make eye contact.‎ C．By changing ESP abilities for the better.‎ D．By strengthening impressions received.‎ ‎[解析]　细节理解题。根据倒数第二段第一句“To improve your ESP abilities, take up meditation (冥想)”可知，冥想可以提高人们的超感知觉，故选C。‎ ‎[答案]　C Ⅳ.七选五阅读填空 ‎(2017·武汉市高中毕业生四月调研)‎ How to run international meetings As more of us do business across cultures, it's best to prepare ahead of time before heading to the meeting table. Here are four rules for different countries.‎ Stick to the schedule Where: Germany, Austria, Japan We've all been to meetings that have a loose agenda, if any at all. They don't start on time and they seem to repeat. ____1____ Japanese are more likely to create a detailed agenda and pass out supporting documents several days before a meeting. ____2____ Meetings that run long in Germany are often taken to mean that the parties are not communicating efficiently.‎ ‎3____‎ Where: China, Malaysia, Singapore Debating a topic can go against the traditional Chinese concept of “saving face” , which means avoiding any mistakes or actions that could bring embarrassment. Laughing at even an obviously amusing answer or pointing out a potential mistake can spoil the entire meeting.‎ Enjoy the interruptions Where: Italy, France, Spain When Pascal Soboll meets with clients in Italy or Spain, he's no longer offended if they leave early or arrive late. Rather than attend the entire three－hour meeting, he has learned that his colleagues there—and in some parts of France—attend based on their own timetable.‎ ‎4____ Rather than expect people to sit through his entire presentation, he makes it easier for them to turn up as needed.‎ Please, no small talk Where: Finland, Sweden In places like Finland and Sweden, where non－meeting related discussions like chat about the weather can be regarded as a way to be off a formally－set agenda and as a waste of other people's time.‎ In some countries, including Finland, there are long pauses in the conversation. ____5____ These breaks are used as a way to process what the other person is saying without interrupting.‎ A．Not so in these countries.‎ B．Germans and Austrians are similar.‎ C．Don't even think about a brainstorm.‎ D．There's often no way to tell how things are going.‎ E．Don't try to fill them, though, with small talk or anything else.‎ F．What do the long silences, idle chit－chat and serious faces really ‎ mean in context?‎ G．For Soboll, that means changing his own German－based expectations of client behaviour.‎ 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了在不同国家如何成功地召开会议。‎ ‎1．[解析]　空处前两句介绍了常见的会议情况：时间安排松散，开会不准时，总是重复；结合空后的“Japanese are more likely to create a detailed agenda and pass out supporting documents several days before a meeting”可知，日本人注意会议的细节，并在数天前就做好准备。据此可以判断，空处承上启下，说明并非所有的国家在开会时都会出现上述的情况：时间安排松散，开会不准时，总是重复。故A项正确。‎ ‎[答案]　A ‎2．[解析]　根据该部分中的“Where: Germany, Austria, Japan”可知，该部分主要介绍德国、奥地利和日本的开会习惯；空前一句已经介绍了日本的情况，结合空后一句“Meetings that run long in Germany are often efficiently”可知，空处及下一句介绍德国和奥地利的开会习惯，故B项正确。‎ ‎[答案]　B ‎3．[解析]　根据空处位置可知，空处为该部分标题，是该部分的主旨；通读该部分可知，该部分第一句介绍了在中国开会应当认真讨论，以防发生尴尬，第二句介绍在开会时不要嘲笑有趣的答案或指出潜在的错误；据此可知，该部分主要介绍要严肃认真地讨论会议议题，就事论事，不需要在开会前有什么“头脑风暴”，故C项正确。‎ ‎[答案]　C ‎4．[解析]　根据上文中的“When Pascal Soboll”和“Rather than...‎ ‎ attend based on their own timetable”以及空后一句可知，意大利人、法国人和西班牙人开会很随意，G项中的“Soboll”与该处相对应，故G项正确。‎ ‎[答案]　G ‎5．[解析]　根据该部分标题“Please, no small talk”和空前的“there are long pauses in the conversation”可知，选E项，E项中的“them”与“long pauses”对应。‎ ‎[答案]　E
