When we know somewhere well，we say we “ know it like the back of our hand ”. But new research has shown that we don’t actually know as much about our hands as we think we do. Wider and shorter
Professor Matthew Longo at the University of London and his team did an experiment,covering the left hands of 100 people. Then they asked the people to point to where they thought their fingertips and knuckles (指关节）were. They made some quite big mistakes.
“People think their hand is wider than it actually is,” said Longo. The fingers also seem shorter than they are. This mistake gets worse as you go across the hand from the thumb to the little finger. Sense of position is connected to our sense of position,” explained Longo. This is our ability to tell where different parts of our bodies are, even when we can’t see them. “It tells us whether a joint is straight .or not "he said. It also tells us whether we are going up or down in an elevator. All this
information comes from signs from nerves in real time. It’s like our brain has maps - maps that show the size and shape of our body. “This experiment tried to find those maps,” said Longo.
Strength of feeling
But these maps make mistakes. These mistakes may be made because of how the brain
understands different parts of the skin. “Our brains ‘see” areas as larger where the skin feels touch strongly,” said Longo. Body parts don’t appear as their true size, but appear bigger or smaller
depending on how strongly they feel touch. Our lips, for example, have more nerves than our nose. So brain “sees” lips on its map of the body as being bigger than our nose. The same thing happens for other parts of the body that have lots of nerves.
Longo believes that more research in this area may help us to understand eating problem
3 / 9 C. on a webpage D. in a magazine
better,because people suffering from these problems may not know their bodies properly.
24, Which of following statement is TRUE about the experiment according to the article?
A. People think their body parts are larger than they actually are.
B .People’s fingers are actually shorter than they think.
C. People were asked to draw their hands from memory
D. People made more mistakes about their little fingers length than their thumbs’ length.
25. What does the underlined “it” in Paragraph 4 refer to?
A. The new experiment. B. The mistake people made.
C. The sizes of fingers and hands. D. The location information.
26. We can conclude from the article that_____________.
A. the maps of people’s bodies form before they are born
B. the maps of our body are based on information from nerves
C. our sense of position depends on the interaction between parts of the body
D. how we feel about our body shape is only decided by our sense of position
27. We can infer from the article that-.
A. there are more nerves in the finger than in the hand
B. our lips have a weaker sense of touch than our nose
C. the hand feels touch more strongly than fingers do
D. our sense of position should not be trusted because it is too often incorrect
C
He is a Time Lord who can travel anywhere he wants in time, but still never seems to be
happy. He is always very well dressed. He refuses to use guns to kill anybody, preferring to trust his brains.Who could be a better hero for British people? He is the Doctor, hero of the popular BBC TV series Doctor Who, which celebrated the 10th anniversary of its 2005 reboot on March 26.
In 2005 the sci-fi TV series returned to British screens after originally running from 1963 until 1989. In the series, the Doctor travels through time in his TARDIS police box，saving Earth and other planets from dangerous aliens and humans.
The show looked a little different upon its 2005 return 一 the show used to be famous for cheap, ugly special effects but they were gone, replaced by expensive computer effects and attractive young stars. Christopher Eccleston played the Ninth Doctor in 2005, and there have been four more since, including the current Twelfth Doctor, Peter Capaldi.
You may wonder why the Doctor has been played by so many people, thirteen in total. This is
because every few years, the doctor “regenerates”，which means his character "dies” but comes back to life with a completely new body afterwards. As the Radio Times put it：“Who else can cheat death by getting a whole new face?”
The show has no limits. The Doctor has already visited the time of Shakespeare, found out the truth about the American moon landing of 1969’ and gone back to the very early days of Earth. He has also traveled forward in time and been to many strange planets. Who knows where he’ll go in the next 10 years? Or if the Doctor will even be a man? Last year, head writer Steven Moffat told BANG Showbiz ii is very possible that a woman will play the Doctor in the future
Are you ready for more travels with him or her through time?

C .He is belter at solving problems with his guns than with his brains.
D .His mission is to protect Earth and other planets from attack.

A .is very imaginative B. seems hard to understand
C .involves scientific discoveriesD .is an accurate reflection of human history

When The New Republic magazine predicted who would win the 2016 Nobel Prize in
literature on Oct 6, it said：“Not Bob Dylan. That’s for sure.”
But the award came as a surprise to many. On Oct 13, the famous US musician was named the Nobel laureate by the Swedish Academy. He has “created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition", according to the organization.
Although Dylan, 75, is not really thought to be a literary writer, he has given the world a lot of creative work over 50 years, especially when it comes to his folk songs.
In his 1985 album Biograph, Dylan wrote about the appeal of folk music to him. Rock songs
“weren’t serious enough or didn’t reflect life in a realistic way", according to Dylan. But folk, was “a more serious type of thing. The songs are filled with more sadness; more joy …much deeper feelings".
Dylan’s music and lyrics spoke to many people during the 1960s. His lyrics were often about great political issues, such as the civil rights movement. The 1960s were a time of change when the young were making sure that their voices were heard. The idea is mast famously expressed in Dylan's The Times They Are a -Changin (1964), which warns the world, “You better start swimming or you'll sink like a stone. For the times they are a-changin！”
There were complaints that a literary prize had been given to a singer. But ancient “Greek poets Homer and Sappho wrote poetic works that were meant to be listened to, that were meant to be performed, often with instruments - and it s the same way with Dylan ",the Swedish Academy’s permanent secretary Sara Danius told CNN.
It could even be said that giving the important prize to Dylan has brought back an old literary tradition. The millions whose lives Dylan’s words and music have changed will surely welcome the

award.
32. Dylan found folk music attractive because___________?

A. He never thought that he would win the Nobel Prize.
B. Most of his influential works were created in the 1960s.
C .His songs expressed people’s feelings well during the 1960s.
D. His fans were mostly young people who were active in political movements.
34. According to the last two paragraphs, ______________.
A .lyrics can be seen as a literary form B. a literary prize should not be given to a singer
C. Dylan’s works were inspired by Greek poets
D .Dylan deserves the award because he influenced many songwriters

What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange and red? greys and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be a pessimist. At least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference as well as the effect that colors have on human beings. . If you happen to love brown, you did so, as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.
A yellow room makes most people more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one. And a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. A black bridge over the Thames River near London, used to be the scene of more suicides (自杀)than any other bridge in the area—until it was repainted green. The number of suicide attempts fell sharply. Perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue. it is an established fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or grey.
A. On the other hand, black is depressing.
B. They tell us, among those facts, that we don’t choose our favorite color as we grow up-we are born with our preference.
C. The rooms are painted in different colours as you like.
D. If you do, you must be an optimist, a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement.
E. Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active.
F. Life is like a picture or a poem, full of different colours.
G. Colors do influence our moods. There is no doubt about it.
