19.Have you ever had the strange feeling that you were being watched?You turn around and,sure enough,someone was looking right at you!
Paraps ychologists(靈學(xué)家) say that humans have a natural ability to sense when someone is looking at them.To research whether such a"six sense"really exists,Robert Baker,a psychologist(心理學(xué)家) at the University of Kentucky,did two experiments.
In the first one,Baker sat behind unknowing people in public places and stared at the backs of their heads for 5to 15minutes.The subjects (受試者) were eating,drinking,reading,studying,watching TV,or working at a computer.Baker made sure that the people could not tell that he was sitting behind them during those periods.Later when he questioned the subjects,almost all of them said they had no sense that someone was staring at them.
For the second experiment,Baker told the subjects that they would be stared at from time to time from behind in a laboratory setting.The people had to write down when they felt they being stared at and when they weren't.Baker found the subjects were no better at telling when they were stared at and when they weren't.
Baker concludes that people do not have the ability to sense when they are being stared at.If people doubt the outcomeof his two experiments,said Baker,"I suggest they repeat the experiments and see for themselves."

61.what's the aim of the two experiments for?D
A.Prove why humans have a sixth sense.
B.explain when people can have a sixth sense
C.show how people act while being watched in the lab.
D.study whether humans can sense when they are stared at.
62.what sense does parapsychologists say that humans have to?A
A.a(chǎn) natural ability       
B.a(chǎn) natural staring ability
C.a(chǎn) strange thinking     
D.a(chǎn) looking feeling
63.the underlined word"outcome"in the last paragraph most probably means?B
A.value         
B.result            
C.performance         
D.connection
64.in the second experiment,the subjectsB.
A.could tell when they were stared at and when they weren't.
B.couldn't tell when they were stared at and when they aeren't
C.couldn't tell when they were stared at but could tell when they weren't.
D.could tell when they were stared at but couldn't tell when they weren't.
65.what can we learn from the passage?C
A.People are born with a sixth sense.
B.the experiments support parapsychologists'idea.
C.the subjects do not have a sixth sense in the experiments.
D.people have a sixth sense in all places.

分析 你是否曾經(jīng)有過這種奇怪的感覺,你是被監(jiān)視?你轉(zhuǎn)過身來,果然,有人正在盯著你!
心理學(xué)家(靈學(xué)家)說,人類有一個自然感覺.覺得有人在看著他們.要研究是否有這樣的"第六感"真的存在,羅伯特貝克,心理學(xué)家在肯塔基大學(xué),進(jìn)行兩個實驗.
第一個實驗,貝克坐在公共場所,在毫無知曉的人們后面盯著他們的背看5到15分鐘.受試者吃,喝,讀書,看電視,或在電腦上工作.貝克確保不能告訴人們,他坐在他們后面.后來當(dāng)他問這個問題,幾乎所有人都稱他們沒有感覺到有人正盯著他們.
第二個實驗,貝克告訴受試者,他要不時從后面盯著一個實驗室里的雙面鏡盯著他們看.人們必須寫下什么時候他們感到被盯,以及什么時候他們沒有被盯.貝克發(fā)現(xiàn),受試人在說出他們被盯的時間與沒有被盯的時間之間沒有好轉(zhuǎn).
貝克得出結(jié)論,認(rèn)為人們沒有能力感到別人盯著他看或不看.如果人們質(zhì)疑他的兩個實驗,貝克說,"我建議他們重復(fù)實驗讓自己看看."

解答 61.D.主旨大意題.根據(jù)To research whether such a"six sense"really exists,Robert Baker,a psychologist(心理學(xué)家) at the University of Kentucky,did two experiments可知,"要研究是否有這樣的"第六感"真的存在,羅伯特貝克,心理學(xué)家在肯塔基大學(xué),進(jìn)行兩個實驗.",所以"下面兩個實驗的目的為否有這種能力存在",故選D.
62.A.細(xì)節(jié)題解題.根據(jù)Paraps ychologists(靈學(xué)家) say that humans have a natural ability to sense when someone is looking at them.可知,"心理學(xué)家(靈學(xué)家)說,人類有一個自然感覺到有人在看著他們.",故選A.
63.B.詞義猜測題.根據(jù)If people doubt the outcome of his two experiments,said Baker,"I suggest they repeat the experiments and see for themselves"可知,"如果人們質(zhì)疑他的兩個實驗的…,貝克說,"我建議他們重復(fù)實驗讓自己看看",這里應(yīng)指質(zhì)疑實驗的結(jié)果,所以才會重復(fù)實驗,其余選項"價值,表現(xiàn),聯(lián)系"不符合句意,故選B.
64.B.推理判斷題.根據(jù)The people had to write down when they felt they being stared at and when they weren't.Baker found the subjects were no better at telling when they were stared at and when they weren't.可知,"人們必須寫下什么時候他們感到被盯著看,以及什么時候他們沒有被盯著看.貝克發(fā)現(xiàn),受試人在說出他們被盯的時間與沒有被盯的時間之間沒有好轉(zhuǎn)."故答案為:B.
65.C.主旨大意題.根據(jù)Baker concludes that people do not have the ability to sense when they are being stared at可知,"貝克得出結(jié)論,認(rèn)為人們沒有能力感到別人盯著他看或不看",所以"實驗證實沒有第六感的存在",故選C.

Last weekend,I went to a countryside with some of my friends.We played some games,and we had a picnic,at same time,we took a lot of pictures and had a good time.
Best wishes.
Yours,
Li Hua.
