HomelessCDogs greet other dogs noses first,sniffing(PM)each other from head to tail.People are not soopen about the process of sniffing,but smell is important in human relations,too.There is alsoevidence that hunuins can infer relationship and emotional states and even discover disease throughsmell.Now,Inbal Rcivreby,Kobi Snitz and Noam Sobel of the Weizmann Institute of Science havegone a step further.As they report in Science Advances,the three researchers started their firstexperiment by testing the smells of 20 pairs of familiar and same-sex friends.They employed anelectronic nose(e-nose)and two gioups of human“smellers”.The e-nose used a set of gas sensors to assess T-shirts worn by participants.One group ofhuman smellers were given pairs of these shirts and asked to rate how similar they smelt.Those inthe other group were asked to rate the smells of individual T-shirts on five dimensions(维度):pleasantness,intensity,attractiveness,competence and wannth.Both approaches produced thesame result.The T-shirts of friends smell more similar to each other than did the T-shirls ofstrangers.高二英语试卷第5页(共10页)Does friendship cause similarity of smell,or does similarity of smell cause friendship?Thethree researchers investigated whether there were positive interactions between strangers by usingthe e-nose measurement.They collected the smells of another 17 volunteers with e-nose,and thenasked the participants to play a minoring game.Chat game involved silently mirroring another individualshand movements.Participants were paired up by chance and theirreactions were recorded.After each interaction,they demonstratedhow close they felt to their fellow gamer by overlapping two circles(one representing themselves,the other their partner).The moresimilar the two electronic smell signatures were,the greater theoverlap.Participants also rated the quality of their interaction inthe game along 12 dimensions of feelings that define friendship.Similar smells were consistentwith positive ratings for nine of these dimensions.However,Iwo participants smelling alike did notmean they were any more accurate at the mirroring game than others.Why smell might play a role in forming friendships remains obscure.Other qualities related tobeing friends,including age,appearance,and education,are either immediately obvious orrapidly become so.But while some individuals have strong body smell,many do not.It ispresent.But it is subliminal(潜意识的).Dr Ravreby guesses that there may be“an evolutionaiyadvantage in having friends ihal are genetically similar lo us”.Body smell is known to be linkedwith genetic make-up.Smelling similar to others may thus allow subliminal inferences aboutgenetic similarity to be drawn.37.What can we learn from the first experiment?A.Friends smell like one another.B.Friends tend to sniff each other.C.The smell can be judged on five dimensions.D.The T-shirts of friends smell the same to each other.38.The mirroring game is designed to.A.enrich the dimensions that define friendshipB.prove strangers smell more alike after positive interactionsC.test whether strangers can develop friendship in the processD.explore the relationship between similarity of smell and friendship39.What does the underlined word uobscureM in the last paragraph probably mean?A.Unacceptable.B.Unchanged.C.Unclear.D.Unrealistic.40.What can we infer from this passage?A.Body smells have effects on genetic make-up.B.People who have similar smells may have similar genes.C.Body smells become similar after people becoming friends.D.Two participants smelling alike performed better in the game than others.高二英语试卷第6页(共10页)DI have a friend who bird watches.She feels comfortablewhenever shes doing it.Tf you ask her why she likes it,she willsay things like Well,birds are the worlds most magicalcreatures.I have another friend who knits.She likes it becauseifs satisfying,and has an astonishingly impressive impact onpeople for whom being able to knit gloves is out of reach.As a term,“hobby“has always been of arguable meaning.Ask someone what they think ahobby is,and youll get a dictionaiy definition that they will have just looked up on their phonesand,then,a passionate speech on all of the activities that can under no circumstances be put intogroups as hobbies by their own highly unique and inflexible standards.Being online is not ahobby,apparently,nor is listening to music.llardly anyone knows what a hobby is,and this is particularly the case now that so many of usare spending our leisure time online arguing about these sorts of basic definitions with people,asthe writer Max Read put it in an essay,“to whom the world has been created again everyr morning,for whom every settled argument of modernity must be rewritten,bul this time with theirengagement.nEven taking these difficulties into account,however,it seems obvious that birdwatching andknitting are classic hobbies.They are enjoyable,involve practice and reward efforl,and they aregiven immediate access to a group with the same interests.They are the sorts of hobbies advicecolumnists(专栏作家)have in mind when people write in about their imbalanced lives.Itsinteresting,then,that not one of my two clearly hobby-having friends would admit to the practice.They worried that their hobbies,which give them pleasure and keep them far from theircomputers,made them seem like they had too much leisure time and too few inner resources thatwould enable them to naturally avoid boredom.They are fully paid-up members of society,withbusy lives,fulfilling interpersonal relationships and,again,hobbies that make them happy.Itsjust that hobbies have an undeservedly bad reputation,one made worse by the Internet,likeeverything else.The birdwatcher said the problem with having a hobby was that it made people seem like theywere contributing and learning nothing.The knitter said that she personally connected hobbies withhaving no friends and no idea of what normal people do to have fun.Actually,they
