【題目】Puzzled face asks for help

Think about the last time you did something that you found difficult. Was it working out a puzzle or working hard on your math homework?

Can you remember the expression you had on your face?Most people will press their lips together and frown when they are doing something they find difficult. This is normally seen as a sign of effort. Now we’ve found that it can also say more than that.

A recent study at the University of Portsmouth in England suggests that the human expression of effort and frustration(挫折) is our way of asking others for help.

Scientists at the university gave children and chimpanzees(黑猩猩) an impossible puzzle to work out. When the children couldn’t work out the puzzle, their faces expressed determination and effort. The chimpanzees’ did not.

Humans and chimpanzees have many facial expressions that share the same meaning. A human smile is the same as a chimpanzee showing its teeth in happiness.

Scientists believe that over time, humans have evolved(進(jìn)化) to use this facial expression to ask for help. We have also learned to respond to it by offering help.

According to Dr Albert Mehrabian, a well-known professor of psychology at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), only 7% of human communication happens through words and 55% is through body language. Therefore, understanding expressions is second nature to human beings.

With this in mind, next time you see a person with a frustrated expression, listen to your heart and stop to lend them a hand.

【1】【1】What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?

A. Frowning??? B. The expression??? C. Something difficult??? D. A sign of effort

【2】【2】According to the recent study, people’s expression of effort or frustration tells others that __________.

A. they need help??? B. they can do things themselves

C. they will give up??? D. they want to be alone.

【3】【3】Which of the following about the study is TRUE?

A. Scientists gave the chimpanzees an easy puzzle.

B. The chimpanzees smiled as they worked out the puzzle.

C. The chimpanzees’ face didn’t show determination or effort.

D. The chimpanzees used other expressions to ask for help.

【4】【4】According to Dr Albert Mehrabian, we learn that ____________.

A. body language is very important in human communication

B. people don’t like to use words to communicate

C. human expressions are not a kind of body language

D. words can’t help much in communication

【題目】To write a great news story, you have to make sure it is correct, relevant (相關(guān)的) and fresh.

For a start, all the information in a story must be correct. Not only the spelling and grammar, but also the facts.

Any mistakes that show up in a story can get a newspaper into big trouble.

For example, if a newspaper said that Yang Liwei was the first man to go into space, it would be wrong. He wasn’t the first. The newspaper would probably lose lots of readers because of that mistake.

A news story does not only have to be correct, but it must also be relevant to its readers. People are mostly interested in news that happens near to them. That’s why you care more about what happens at your school than at schools in America. It’s also why newspapers in Beijing don’t talk much about news in Shanghai or Hong Kong.

Make sure it’s fresh.

Finally, news must always be fresh. When you pick up your evening newspaper, you want to read about news that happened that day. You don’t want to read about news from last week!

So, now you know what makes a good news story. Have a look at our paper and see if it’s full of good news! You can try writing a news story for our paper like a real reporter.

【1】What will happen if there is a mistake in a newspaper?

A. The reporter will probably have a lot of trouble.

B. The newspaper would attract more readers.

C. Many readers won’t buy the newspaper any more.

D. The reporter won’t be able to write for the newspaper again.

【2】Why would it be wrong for a newspaper to say that Yang Liwei was the first man to go into space?

A. Because the information was not fresh.

B. Because the information was not correct.

C. Because the information was not relevant.

D. Because the information was not useful.

【3】People are mostly interested in news that happens near to them, so newspapers in Beijing talk much about news in???? .

A. Nanjing??? B. Shanghai

C. Beijing??? D. Hong Kong

【4】Where does the writer work most probably?

A. In a newspaper.??? B. In a shop.

C. In a library.??? D. In a bank.
