1、阅读理解专练(三)(限时30分钟)APinocchio may be just a childrens fairy tale, but Spanish scientists at the University of Granada recently investigated the so-called “Pinocchio effect” and found that our noses dont grow when we tell a lie, but actually shrink a bit. Dr. Emilio Gmez Miln and his team developed a l
2、ie detector test that used thermography to tell if people were lying, and found that whenever participants in their research were being untruthful, the temperature of the tips of their noses dropped up to 1. 2, while the temperature of their forehead increased up to 1. 5. Scientists also found that
3、drop in temperature at nose level actually caused it to slightly shrink, although the difference is undetected by the human eye. “One has to think in order to lie, which rises the temperature of the forehead, ” Dr. Gomez Milan explained the findings. “At the same time we feel anxious, which lowers t
4、he temperature of the nose. ”For this study, researchers asked a number of 60 students to perform various tasks while being scanned by thermal imaging technology. One of these tasks involved calling a 3 to 4 minutes call to their parents, partner or a friend and telling a significant lie. Participan
5、ts had to devise the lie by themselves during the call, and the thermal cameras picked up this “reverse Pinocchio effect” caused by the fluctuation ( 起 伏 ) in temperature in the nose and forehead. Interestingly, the thermal lie detector picked up the temperature difference in 80 percent of test subj
6、ects, which is a better rate of success than that of any modern lie detector. “With this method we have achieved to increase accuracy and reduce the occurrence of false positives, something that is frequently with other methods such as the polygraph (测谎仪) , ” said Dr. Emilio Gmez Miln, who added tha
7、t law enforcement interviewers could one day combine other lie detection technology with thermal imaging to achieve better results. The thermal lie detector has been the most reliable in the world, 10% more than the popular polygraph. 【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了一项新研究发现撒谎虽然不会像匹诺曹故事中那样让鼻子变长, 但是会出现一些细微的面部表情变化
8、, 而这项发现可以应用到司法执法的过程中。1. Why does the author mention “Pinocchio” at the beginning? A. To tell a fairy story. B. To warn us not to lie. C. To introduce a research. D. To inspire us to doubt old beliefs. 【解析】选C。推理判断题。匹诺曹故事的作用, 而非故事寓意, 故从结构作用上分析可知用匹诺曹是为了引出主题研究。故选C。2. According to the research, what migh
9、t happen if you tell a lie? A. Your nose gets longer. B. Your nose becomes smaller. C. Your temperature gets higher. D. Your temperature remains stable. 【解析】选B。细节理解题。根据第二段内容可知, 人撒谎过后鼻尖降温、额头升温, 而这种温度的变化会导致皱鼻子(slightly shrink)的动作, 也就是鼻子会稍微缩小, 故选B。3. What can we learn about the research? A. Researchers
10、 conduct the study by interviewing. B. Researchers design difference lies for participants. C. The thermal lie detector will prove a popular one. D. The thermal lie detector may assist law enforcement. 【解析】选D。推理判断题。根据倒数第二段内容可知, 这项技术有望投入到司法执法过程中, 综合全文内容, 可知这项研究中的最大成果是测谎仪的应用。BThe famous Spanish painte
11、r Pablo Picasso once said, “Every child is an artist. The problem he has is how to remain an artist once he grows up. ”This is both encouraging and discouraging. The fact that we were all born to be artists is certainly exciting, and yet the reality has proven that remaining one is a task that many
12、of us have failed. Fortunately, some people have seen the problem and want to solve it. Western educators have suggested that we introduce the concept of “STEAM” instead of “STEM” traditional “core majors” including science, technology, engineering, and mathsince the “A”, which stands for “arts”, is
13、 just as important. And on April 11, Chinas Ministry of Education issued a guideline. Colleges and universities are required to provide more art-related courses and students need to earn a certain number of art credits in order to graduate. These efforts which came after many scientific studies had
14、found that art education helps students develop self-confidence and teamwork skills, as well as habits of mind such as problem solving and critical thinking, according to The Washington Post. Its true that none of these skills target specific jobs. But as former US ballet dancer Damian Woetzel told
15、The Atlantic, the purpose of art is “to give kids the tools to become adults who are creative, adaptable, and expressive-capable of having their eyes and ears and senses alive”. And we can now see how we lost track of our born “artist self” on our way to growing up: We failed to keep our capabilitie
