But for scientists, working out what is going on in an actor39。 Now, researchers have said actors show different patterns of brain activity depending on whether they are in character or not. almost like the character is possessing you. Once inside the MRI scanner, the actors were asked to answer a number of questions, such as: would they go to the party? And would they tell their parents that they had fallen in love? The results revealed that the brain activity differed depending on the situation being tested. The team found that when the actors were in character, they use some thirdperson knowledge or inferences about their character. 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 scanning the brain activity of some actors.B.By interviewing some theatre teachers.D.s research?

The team found that when the actors were in character, they use some thirdperson knowledge or inferences about their character.”結(jié)果顯示，大腦活動的不同取決于所測試的情境。由此可知Brown博士的研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，演員在表演時大腦活動是不同的，故選B。根據(jù)最后一段中的“However, Philip Davis, a professor at the University of Liverpool, was unimpressed by the research, saying acting is about far more than ‘pretending’他說，表演不僅僅是 假裝 成某個人，它還包括文本和語言的體現(xiàn)。 （4）考查主旨大意。 【點(diǎn)評】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，推理判斷和主旨大意三個題型的考查，是一篇科研類閱讀，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.

You had to bundle up just to keep warm when you went outside. 可知，在我的記憶中，冬天總是很不令人愉快。所以通過 keep warm可知，外出時要想暖和一些，就要多穿衣服。故選D。根據(jù)第四段中的 At the touch of a button, or through an app on our phones, the clothing generates heat from elements placed inside. 可知，只要按下按鈕，或者通過手機(jī)上 應(yīng)用程序，安裝在衣服內(nèi)部的電子元件就會產(chǎn)生熱量。故選A。根據(jù)第二段中的Fortunately, things don39。先進(jìn)的技術(shù)、引擎環(huán)和設(shè)計(jì)為我們提供了解決老問題的新方法。故選C。通讀全文可知，在科技并不發(fā)達(dá)的過去，人們可能會為如何在嚴(yán)寒天氣里更好地保暖而倍感困擾。人們憑借科學(xué)技術(shù)發(fā)明了各式各樣的防寒方法。所以短文的最佳標(biāo)題為讓現(xiàn)代科技溫暖你的冬日。故選B。5．閱讀理解 Dr. Chockalingam, a heart disease specialist in Columbia, advises his patients to smile.
