And would they tell their parents that they had fallen in love? However, Philip Davis, a professor at the University of Liverpool, was unimpressed by the research, saying acting is about far more than pretending to be someone — it involves embodying (體現(xiàn)) the text and language.（1）How did Dr Brown39。By interviewing some theatre teachers.D.Actors39。 brain activity is more active when they are in character.（3）How did Philip Davis react to the research? A.B.C.D.A research on the brain activity of actors.D.根據(jù)第五段中的“Once inside the MRI scanner, the actors were asked to answer a number of questions, such as: would they go to the party?”一旦進(jìn)入核磁共振掃描儀，演員們被要求回答一系列問(wèn)題，比如:他們會(huì)去參加派對(duì)嗎?由此推斷出Brown博士的團(tuán)隊(duì)是通過(guò)掃描一些演員的大腦活動(dòng)進(jìn)行他們的研究的，故選A。由此可知Brown博士的研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，演員在表演時(shí)大腦活動(dòng)是不同的，故選B。他說(shuō)，表演不僅僅是 假裝 成某個(gè)人，它還包括文本和語(yǔ)言的體現(xiàn)。 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，推理判斷和主旨大意三個(gè)題型的考查，是一篇科研類(lèi)閱讀，要求考生在捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息的基礎(chǔ)上，進(jìn)一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進(jìn)行分析，推理，概括和歸納，從而選出正確答案。 In my memory, winters always used to be really unpleasant.

He says a smile may be one way to help your heart. When we smile, the brain wiring changes. The chemicals that are released are more positive. He says smiling is the first step in fighting physical and emotional stress and its sometimes harmful effects on human health. This is not just New Age advice. Several studies support his opinion.s main stress hormone. It increases sugar in the bloodstream. If you are truly in danger, these hormones can help you. They are part of what we call our fightorflight response. Once people smile, they are relaxing. This relaxation directly lowers blood pressure, improves sugar levels in the blood. If we are smiling, we are breaking that link between stress and health. And it just may provide a little extra protection to everyone39。 （1）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。故選D。故選C。而且它可能會(huì)為每個(gè)人的心臟健康提供一點(diǎn)額外的保護(hù)。根據(jù)第二段中的“Dr. Chockalingam, a heart disease specialist in Columbia, advises his patients to smile. He says a smile may be one way to help your heart.”哥倫比亞的心臟病專(zhuān)家Chockalingam博士建議他的病人保持微笑。6．閱讀理解 impressive feat is a useful example to show how artificial intelligence works—real AI.

AI needs to be given a goal to optimize. It cannot invent, like scientists, novelists and artists can.”可知四種類(lèi)型的工作完全沒(méi)有風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。排除A；再根據(jù)第四段中的“as the fourth type is much larger: jobs where emotions are needed, such as teachers, nannies and doctors.”可知需要情感的工作,例如老師,保姆和醫(yī)生也不大可能被取代,因此排除C和D。進(jìn)行培訓(xùn)是為了得到專(zhuān)業(yè)技能,由此推斷作者會(huì)給出一直提升人們的專(zhuān)業(yè)技能的建議,故選D。s right173。s gaze is no more than about 5 degrees off to either side, the Mona Lisa effect occurs.t cut the gaze of the character to that side173。s gaze as she looked at the viewer, they moved the ruler farther from or closer to the screen during the study.

Now, we can change exact sections of Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), so the process is more accurate and faster. But people all over the world are arguing about its benefits and disadvantages. Some people use the technology to produce desired characteristics of plants and animals. Other people are concerned that the genetically engineered plants may harm the environment and worried that they may be dangerous for people to eat. However, genetically engineered plants can cause unexpected problems. Genetically engineered plants that resist pests may
