【題目】

Some people claim they “never forget a face”. But what does that saying mean? Is there really no limit to the number of faces a person can remember? A new study at the University of York in England has found that, on average, people can remember as many as 5,000 faces.

The study is the first time that scientists have been able to put a number to the abilities of humans to recognize faces. The research team tested people on how many faces they could remember from their personal lives and in the media. They also tested them to see how many famous faces they recognized. Rob Jenkins works in the psychology department at the University of York. He said the researchers’ study centered on the number of faces people actually know. He said the researchers were not able to discover whether there is a limit on how many faces the brain can handle.

In the study, people spent one hour writing down as many faces from their personal lives as possible. At first, they found it easy to come up with many faces. But by the end of the hour, they found it harder to think of new ones. Their change in speed let the researchers estimate when they would have run out of faces completely.

The results showed that these people knew between 1,000 and 10,000 faces. Jenkins explained that some people may have a natural ability for remembering faces. “There are differences in how much attention people pay to faces and how well they process the information,” he said. Jenkins also said it could be because of different social environments. Some people may have grown up in more populated places. Therefore, they may have had more social contact throughout their lives.

The people in the study included 25 men and women between 18 and 61 years old. Researchers think age may be an interesting area for further research. “It would be interesting to see whether there is a peak age for the number of faces we know”, Jenkins said. He said it is possible that we gather more faces throughout our lifetime. But, he added, there also may he an age at which we start to find it harder to remember all of those faces.

The study suggests our facial recognition abilities enable us to deal with the many different faces we see on the screens, as well as those we know, like family and friends. Today, facial recognition technology is used in many ways, including by law enforcement agencies to prevent crime and violence. Governments use it to keep secret areas secure and, in extreme cases, control populations. Even Facebook uses facial recognition. For example, when you “tag” or name a friend, Facebook technology may recognize the person’s face from a different picture you had shared before.

【題目】Pay It Forward

When someone does something nice for you, you probably want to pay that person back. But some people choose to pay it forward! “Pay it forward” means people do something nice by helping another person who may be in need.

In the process, they hope to become part of good deeds that will grow and grow.

The idea to “pay it forward” became popular in 2000. But the concept is at least as old as Ben Franklin. In 1784 he helped a young man by giving him some money. After that, he wrote the man a letter. He told the man that he refused to be paid back because he wanted the man to help someone who needed money in the future.

Everyone can find ways to pay it forward. Kids can pay for someone’s lunch or give up their place in line at school. Others could cheer the sick kids in the hospital up or simply hold the door open for another person. Many people enjoy coming up with creative ways they can pay it forward. They visit old people’s homes, serve on cleaners, collect cans for charity, and start recycling programs.

When going to a drive-through restaurant, some customers like to tell the cashier that they’ll pay for the order of the person in the car behind them. Usually one or two drivers will do this at a time. Sometimes it might go on for several cars. In 2003, the customers at a drive-through coffee shop in Connecticut set a record. More than 1,000 drivers in a row paid for the order of the car behind them!

So if you receive an act of kindness one day, I’m sure you’ll know exactly what to do. Pay it forward!
