3．WHEN there are some strangers in front of us，which of them will we trust？
According to a new study in the online PloS One （《公共科学图书馆•综合》），people make their decisions to trust others largely based on their faces．Your appearance can do a lot for you，especially if you are in the financial industry．The more trustworthy you look，the more likely people will buy what you're selling．
Researchers from Britain's University of Warwick Business School，University College London，and Dartmouth College，US，did a number of experiments．
The research team used computer software to make 40faces，from the least to the most trustworthy-looking．
The study said that the difference between a trustworthy face and one that isn't as trustworthy comes from features that look slightly angry or slightly happy，even when the face is at rest．However，a slightly happy face is more likely to be trusted．
Researchers gave participants some money and asked them which face they trusted to invest the money for them．Then researchers gave some good and bad information about the people with these faces，and asked the participants again whom they trusted．
The results showed that even if they got different information，the participants didn't change their choices．They were still more likely to invest their money with the more trustworthy-looking faces．
Chris Olivola，one of the study's authors，said in the University of Warwick's press release："It seems we are still willing to go with our own instincts （本能） about whether we think someone looks like we can trust them．The temptation （诱惑） to judge strangers by their faces is hard to resist．"

36．Which of the following can be a proper title for this passage？A
A．What kind of face do you trust？
B．Who did the experiments？
C．Why do you trust him or her？
D．Why did they do the experiments？
37．According to the study，which of the following faces is most likely to be trusted？B
A．A sad face． B．A smiling face．
C．A crying face． D．An angry face．
38．Which of the following about the experiment is TRUE？C
A．The trustworthy faces were given good information．
B．Researchers took photos of the 40people's faces in college．
C．Most participants gave their money to the trustworthy-looking faces．
D．Participants liked to choose the faces with good information．
39．What did the researchers learn from their experiment？C
A．People can't refuse temptations．
B．People always do things with their instincts．
C．People often judge strangers by their faces．
D．People don't trust strangers with sad faces．

13．A scientist turns out to be able to see the future by offering each of four-year-olds a piece of candy and watching how he or she deals with it．Some children reach eagerly for the candy they see．Some last a few minutes before they give in．But others are determined to wait until the last moment．
By the time the children reach high school，something amazing has happened．A survey found that those who as four-year-olds had enough self-control to hold out generally grew up to be more popular，adventurous，confident and dependable．The children who gave in to temptation （诱惑） early were more likely to be lonely，easily upset in time of difficulties and inflexible （固守己见的）．
Actually，the ability to delay reward is a sign of emotional intelligence which doesn't show up on an IQ test．
The hardware of the brain and the software of the mind have long been scientists'concerns．But brain theory can't explain what we wonder about most，like the question why some people remain upbeat in the face of troubles that would defeat a less resistant （有抵抗力的） person．
Here comes the theory of Daniel Goleman，writer of Emotional Intelligence：when it comes to predicting people's success，brain ability as measured by IQ may actually matter less than the qualities of mind once thought of as"character"．
EQ is not the opposite of IQ．What researchers have been trying to understand is how they work together； how one's ability to handle stress，for instance，affects the ability to concentrate and put intelligence to use．Among the ingredients （要素） for success，researchers now generally agree that IQ counts for about 20%； the rest depends on everything from social class to luck．
While many researchers in this relatively new field are glad to see emotional issues finally taken seriously，some few fear EQ invites misuse．
63．Why does the author mention the experiment at the beginning of the text？A
A．To introduce the topic of the text．
B．To prove the scientist's wisdom．
C．To amuse both the children and readers．
D．To show us how to do an IQ test．
64．The experiment with the four-year-olds makes it clear that．C
A．the age of 4is a proper time for scientific experiment
B．emotional intelligence won't show up until adolescence
C．the ability of self-control plays a role in personal success
D．candy can be used to measure a person's emotional intelligence
65．The underlined word"upbeat"in Paragraph 4probably means．B
A．kind
B．positive
C．floating
D．negative
66．Which of the following is TRUE of EQ and IQ according to the text？D
A．There is no link between EQ and IQ．
B．The higher a person's IQ is，the higher his or her EQ is．
C．Some people can be blessed with lots of both，but some with little of either．
D．Scientists are trying to discover the way in which EQ and IQ work together．

11．Overpopulation is one of the serious problems that the whole world is facing．Many
countries are trying to handle it．Among them，Brazil has become one of the developing world's great successes at reducing population growth-but more by accident than design．While countries such as India have made joint efforts to reduce birth rates，Brazil has had better result without really trying，says George Martine at Harvard．
Brazil's population growth rate has dropped from 2.99% a year between 1951and 1960to 1.93% a year between 1981and 1990，and Brazilian women now have only 2.7children on average．Martine says this figure may have fallen still further since 1990，an achievement that makes it the envy of many other Third World countries．
Martine puts it down to，among other things，soap operas and installment （分期付款） plans introduced in the 1970s．both played an important，although indirect，role in lowering the birth rate．Brazil is one of the world's biggest producers of soap operas．Globo，Brazil's most popular television network，shows three hours of soaps six nights a week，while three others show at least one hour a night．Most soaps are based on wealthy characters living the high life in big cities．
"Although they have never really tried to work in a message towards the problems of reproduction，they describe middle and upper class values-not many children，different attitudes towards sex，women working，"says Martine．"They sent this image to all parts of Brazil and made people conscious of other patterns of behavior and other values，which were put into a very attractive package．"
Meanwhile，the installment plans tried to encourage the poor to become consumers．"This led to an enormous change in consumption （消耗、消费） patterns and consumption was incompatible （不相容的） with unlimited reproduction．"Says Martine．

68．According to the passage，Brazil has cut back its population growthB．
A．by educating its citizens 　　　　　　　　
B．by chance
C．by developing TV programs 　　　　　
D．by careful family planning
69．According to the passage，many Third World countriesB．
A．haven't attacked much importance to birth control
B．haven't yet found an effective measure to control their population
C．would soon join Brazil in controlling their birth rate
D．neglected the role of TV plays in family planning
70．Soap operas have helped in lowering Brazil's birth rate becauseC．
A．they keep people sitting long hours watching TV
B．people are drawn to their attractive package
C．they have gradually changed people's way of life
D．they popularize birth control measures
71．What is Martine's conclusion about Brazil's population growth？D
A．The increase in birth rate will increase consumption．
B．A country's production is limited by its population growth．
C．Consumption patterns and reproduction patterns are contradictory （互相矛盾的）
D．The desire for consumption helps to reduce birth rate．

18．For more than twenty years scientists have been seeking to understand the mystery of the"sixth sense"of direction．By trying out ideas and solving problems one by one，they are now getting closer to one answer．One funny idea from observing animals in nature is that animals   might have a built-in compass．
Many birds migrate（迁徙）twice a year between their summer homes and winter homes．Some of them fly for thousands of kilometers and mostly at night．Experiments have shown that some birds can recognize star patterns．But they can keep on course even under cloudy skies．How can they do that？A common bird that does not migrate but is great at finding its way home is the horning pigeon（鹤子）and they have been widely studied．One interesting experiment was to attach little magnets （磁铁，磁场）to the birds'heads to block their magnetic sense-just as a loud radio can keep you from hearing a call to dinner．On sunny days，that did not fool the pigeons．Evidently they can use the  sun to tell which way they are going．But on cloudy days，the pigeons with magnets could not find their way．It was as if the magnets had blocked their magnetic sense．Similar experiments with the same kind of results were done with honeybees．
In spite of the experiments，the idea of an animal compass seemed pretty extraordinary．How would animals get the magnetic stuff for a compass？An answer came from an unexpected source，A scientist was studying bacteria that lived in the mud of ponds．He found  accidentally little rod-like bacteria that all swam together in one direction 一 north．In fact，the bacteria had made themselves into little magnets that could line up with the earth's magnet．
The big news was that a living thing，even a simple bacterium，can make magnetite．That led to a search to see whether animals might have it．By using a special instrument，scientists were able to find magnetite in bees and birds，and even in fish．In each animal，except for the bee，the magnetic stuff was always in or close to the brain．
Thus，the idea of a built-in animal compass began to seem reasonable．

32．The main purpose of this passage is toD．
A．explain how the animal compass was invented
B．answer how an animal would get the magnetic stuff for a compass
C．introduce a famous experiment
D．prove the idea that animals might have a built-in compass
33．Which of the following can we infer from Paragraph 3？B
A．The bacteria magnetic sense seemed to be the same as the earth's．
B．The earth itself is a big magnet with which something magnetic might lines up
C．Little rod-like bacteria were found to swim north together through experiments．
D．Migrant birds can easily lose their way because of lacking magnetie．
34．The underlined words"keep on course"in the second paragraph means"A
A．stay in the correctflying route
B．lose one's way
C．remain calm
D．recognize star patterns
35．Where is probably the built-in magnet for a fish according to the scientists？D
A．Close to its stomach．
B．In its heart．
C．Far from its brain．
D．Inside its head．
