14、rds比较清楚,选项C的句意与上述句子的意思完全一致,是答案。选项A说的是everyword,所以不是答案。选项B和D文章中没有提到。2.B答案的根据可在第三段找到。Radel为了保证42名学生到达实验室时是空腹,所以要求他们中午到达。然后告诉一部分学生实验时间推迟了,请他们10分钟后再来。他又请另外一部分学生用午餐。Radel用推迟实验的方法造就了两组实验者,即饥饿组与饱食组。选项B是答案。 3.C虽然A、B、D选项均可在文中找到对应部分,但只属于细节,而非主旨,因此不能选。本文最后一句给出了直接的答案。 4.A第四段第三行中consciously与A项中的intentionally是同义词
15、。B项neutral意思为“中性的”,在本文中的意思是与food-related相对的,即“与食物不相关的”,因此是错误选择;C项不符合课文原意;D项barely意为“仅仅,勉强,几乎没有”,因此也不符合句意。3/21更多精品在大家!大家网,大家的! 5.D选项A所说的实验样本的大小与本题主旨无关,不是答案,而是干扰项;B、C内容也不能直接从短文中推断出来。选项D是答案。最后一段第二句的“Humanscanreallyperceivewhattheyneedorwhattheystrivefor”为选择D项提供了依据。参考译文 第十一篇我们的视觉服务于我们的胃口 我们的五官不仅仅让我们感知世界
16、;还受大脑活动的影响。一项新研究发现:比起那些刚刚用过餐的人,饥饿的人能更清晰地看到与食品有关的词。 数十年以来,心理学家已经知道我们的心理活动直接影响到我们的视觉。例如,贫穷的孩子看到的硬币比实际的要大;饥饿的人看到的食物图片更明亮。法国的尼斯索菲亚安提波利斯大学试图调查这一现象:发生这种情况的时间是在大脑从眼睛接收到视觉信号的即时还是稍后些,这时高级思维活动已经介入了。 雷戴尔招募了健康指数正常的42位学生作为被试者。在测试的当天,每个学生被告知在中午到达实验室,这时距上一次的用餐时间有34个小时。等他们到达实验室时,他们被告知实验时间有延迟。一半学生被告知十分钟后再回来;其余的给1个小时
17、的时间先吃午饭。所以一半学生饿着肚子,另一半学生饱腹参加了此次实验。 实验的步骤如下:要求被试者看电脑屏幕。屏幕上的80个字以1/300秒的频率闪动。由于字体非常之小,被试者只能凭感觉捕捉到字形。1/4的字是与食物有关的。每闪动一个字,被试者回答字体的亮度并选择看到的是哪类词:一类是和食物有关的词,比如“蛋糕”;一类是中性词,比如“船”。由于每个词的闪动在瞬间完成,被试者根本看不清楚那个词是什么。 饥饿的人看到与食物有关的词更明亮,且能更好地辨认出与食物有关的词。由于每个词的闪动太快,其实那些被试者根本不会确切地看到什么,这就说明:他们只是感觉不同,根本没经过思考。雷戴尔给出了这样的解释。 雷
18、戴尔说:“这就是重点所在。人类可以真正感知到自身的需要或者为之奋斗的目标。该实验使我了解这样的事实,即我们的大脑是受我们的动机和需要所支配的。 第十九篇MusicalRobotCompanionEnhancesListenerExperience Shimi,amusicalcompaniondevelopedbyGeorgiaTechsCenterforMusicTechnology,recommendssongs,dancestothebeatandkeepsthemusicpumpingbasedonlistenerfeedback.Thesmartphone-enabled,one-f
