　　.阅读理解

　　A new research has uncovered that culture is a determining factor when people interpret facial emotions(情感). The study reveals that in cultures where emotional control is the standard, such as Japan, the focus is placed on the eyes to interpret emotions. Whereas in cultures where emotion is openly expressed, such as the United States, the focus is on the mouth to interpret emotions.

　　“These findings go against the popular theory that the facial expressions of basic emotions can be universally recognized，” said University of Alberta researcher Dr. Takahiko Masuda.“ A person’s culture plays a very strong role in determining how he will read emotions and needs to be considered when interpreting the facial expressions.”

　　These cultural differences are even noticeable in computer emoticons(情感符号), which are used to convey a writers emotions by email and text message. The Japanese emotions for happiness and sadness vary in terms of how the eyes are drawn, while the American emotions vary with the direction of the mouth. In the United States the emoticons ：) and ：－) show a happy face, whereas the emoticons : (and ：－(show a sad face. However, the Japanese tend to use the symbol (－) to indicate a happy face, and (；－；) to indicate a sad face.

　　“We think it is quite interesting and appropriate that culture tends to mask its emotions. The Japanese would focus on a persons eyes when detecting his or her emotions, as eyes tend to be quite subtle(微妙的)，” said Masuda. “In the United States, where an open emotion is quite common, it makes sense to focus on the mouth, which is the most expressive feature on a persons face.”

　　1. The text mainly tells us that________.

　　A. cultural differences are expressed in emotions

　　B. culture is a key to interpreting facial emotions

　　C. different emoticons are preferred in different cultures

　　D. people from different cultures express emotions differently

　　2. Which emoticon is used by Americans to show a happy face?

　　A. (；－；)

　　B. ：－)

　　C. ：－(

　　D. ：(

　　3. If a Japanese wants to detect whether a smile is true or false, he will probably________.

　　A. read the whole face

　　B. focus on the mouth

　　C. look into the eyes

　　D. judge by the voice

　　4. People used to believe that________.

　　A. some facial expressions of emotions were too complex to be recognized

　　B. people in the world interpreted basic emotions in different ways

　　C. people could only recognize the facial expressions of basic emotions

　　D. people all over the world understood basic emotions in the same way

　　5. The computer emoticons used by Americans show that________.

　　A. they express their feelings openly

　　B. they tend to control their emotionsC. they are good at conveying their emotions

　　D. they use simpler emotions to show their feelings

　　答案：

　　1. B　主旨大意题。文章第一段的首句是主题句，揭示了文化是诠释面部表情的决定性因素。只有B项表达的意思和文义相符。

　　2. B　细节理解题。根据对第三段的分析可知，美国人的文化是开放的，由该段内容可知，B项是美国人表示高兴的表情。

　　3. C　细节理解题。最后一段表明日本人是通过注视别人的眼睛来观察别人的情感的，所以C项的意思和文义相符。

　　4. D　推理判断题。文章第二段说明新的研究结果违背了这一流行说法，即人们基本的面部表情几乎是相同的。

　　5. A　细节理解题。根据最后一段可知，美国人表达感情的方式是比较开放的。

　　Ⅲ.书面表达
