科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:2013-2014學(xué)年福建省莆田一中漳州一中高三上學(xué)期期末聯(lián)考英語(yǔ)試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解
You may not pay much attention to your daily elevator ride. Many of us use a lift several times during the day without really thinking about it. But Lee Gray, PhD, of the University of North Carolina, US, has made it his business to examine this overlooked form of public transport. He is known as the “Elevator Guy”.
?? “The lift becomes this interesting social space where etiquette(禮儀)is sort of strange,” Gray told the BBC. “They are socially very interesting but often very awkward places.”
?? We walk in and usually turn around to face the door. If someone else comes in, we may have to move. And here, according to Gray, liftusers unthinkingly go through a set pattern of movements. He told the BBC what he had observed.
?? He explained that when you are the only one inside a lift, you can do whatever you want – it’s your own little box.
?? If there are two of you, you go into different corners, standing diagonally(對(duì)角線地)across from each other to create distance.
?? When a third person enters, you will unconsciously form a triangle. And when there is a fourth person it becomes a square, with someone in every corner. A fifth person is probably going to have to stand in the middle.
?? New entrants to the lift will need to size up the situation when the doors slide open and then act decisively. Once in, for most people the rule is simple – look down, or look at your phone.
?? Why are we so awkward in lifts?
?? “You don’t have enough space,” Professor Babette Renneberg, a clinical psychologist at the Free University of Berlin, told the BBC. “Usually when we meet other people we have about an arm’s length of distance between us. And that’s not possible in most elevators.”
?? In such a small, enclosed space it becomes very important to act in a way that cannot be construed(理解)as threatening or strange. “The easiest way to do this is to avoid eye contact,” she said.
1.The main purpose of the article is to _______.
A. share an interesting but awkward elevator ride

A recent experiment held in Japan shows that it is almost impossible for people to walk exactly straight for 60 metres. Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology found 20 healthy men and asked them to walk as straight as possible to a target 60 metres away at normal speed. Each man had to walk on white paper fixed flat to the floor wearing wet colored socks. The footprints revealed that all walked in a winding rather than a straight line. Researchers found that people readjust the direction of walking every few seconds. The amount of the winding differed from subject to subject. This suggests that none of us can walk in a strictly straight line. We walk in a winding way mainly because of a slight structural or functional imbalance of our limbs (四肢). Although we may start walking in a straight line, several steps afterwards we have changed direction.
?? Eyesight helps us to correct the direction of walking and leads us to the target. Your ears also help you walk. After turning around a lot with your eyes closed, you can hardly stand still, let alone walk straight.
?? It’s all because your ears help you balance. Inside your inner ear there is a structure which contains liquids. On the sides of the organ are many tiny hair-like structures that move around as the liquid flows. When you spin (旋轉(zhuǎn)) the liquid inside also spins. The difference is that when you stop, the liquid continues to spin for a while. Dizziness is the result of these nerves in your ear. When you open your eyes, although your eyesight tells you to walk in a straight line, your brain will trust your ears more, thus you walk in a curved line.
1.The experiment held in Japan proved that _______.
A. the participants kept readjusting their direction of walking
B. all the participants had a good sense of direction
C. the experiment was done in different ways
D. none of the participants finished the 60 metres
2.The underlined word “subject” in Para. 1 refers to ________.
A. a person with a functional imbalance
B. a person chosen to be studied in an experiment
C. the subject one studies at school
D. the direction of walking
3.The purpose of writing the article is to ________.
A. prove that ears and eyes help us to walk straight
B. explain why we can hardly walk in a strictly straight line
C. point out the importance of noticing everyday science
D. give background information about a latest study
