36、Growing Up Again, did she regret ignoring her morn, I dont know how to use a computer, she admits.

DPeople from East Asia tend to have more difficulty than those from Europe in distinguishing facial expressions and a new repo

45、rt published online in Current Biology explains why. Rachael Jack, University of Glasgow researcher, said that rather than scanning evenly(均匀的) across a face as Westerners do, Easterners fix their attention on the eyes. We show that Easterners and Westerners look at different face features to read f

46、acial expressions, Jack said. Westerners look at the eyes and the mouth in equal measure, whereas Easterners favor the eyes and neglect (忽略) the mouth. According to Jack and her colleagues, the discovery shows that human communication of emotion is more complex than previously believed. As a result,

47、 facial expressions that had been considered universally recognizable cannot be used to reliably convey emotion in cross-cultural situations. The researchers studied cultural differences in the recognition of facial expressions by recording the eye movements of 13 Western Caucasian and 13 East Asian

48、 people while they observed pictures of. expressive faces and put them into categories: happy, sad, surprised, fearful, disgusted, angry, or neutral. They compared how accurately participants read those facial expressions using their particular eye movement strategies. It turned out that Easterners

49、focused much greater attention on the eyes and made significantly more errors than did Westerners. The cultural difference in eye movements that they show is probably a reflection of cultural difference in facial expressions, Jack said. Our data suggest that whereas Westerners use the whole face to

50、convey emotion, Easterners use the eyes more and mouth less. In short, the data show that facial expressions are not universal signals of human emotion. From here on, examining how cultural factors have diversified these basic social skills will help our understanding of human emotion. Otherwise, wh

51、en it comes to communicating emotions across cultures, Easterners and Westerners will find themselves lost in translation. 51. The discovery shows that Westerners . A. pay equal attention to the eyes and the mouthB. consider facial expressions universally reliableC. observe the eyes and the mouth in

In comparison with Westerners, Easterners are likely to . A. do translation more successfullyB. study the mouth more frequentlyC.

Its word-learninbg skills are as good as those of a parrot or chimpanzee(黑猩猩).In one exprement, the researchers took all items that Ricl is supposed to know and divided them into 20 groups of 10 objects.

The owner then told Rico to fetch the object, using a word the dog had never heard before.The correct object was chosen in seven out of 10 tests, suggesting that the dog had worked out the answer by process of elimination(排除法). A month later, Rico remem
