One-hundred-and seventh birthdays aren’t usually celebrated for authors who aren’t alive anymore. But Theodor Seuss Geisel---better known as the children’s books author Dr. Seuss ---who came into the world on 2 March, 1904, was an unusual man.

Like generations of children I was raised on his wonderful stories. But when I now read them to my children it’s not just the childhood memories I enjoy. His writing is brilliant and imaginative and flows with a self-confidence as sure as the words of a Shakespeare poem. Readers ride his characteristic rhythm (韻律) with an effortless joy that cannot be matched by any other modern writer:

You have brains in your head

You have feet in your shoes

You can steer yourself any direction you choose

And will you succeed?

Yes indeed, yes indeed!

Ninety-eight and three-quarters percent guaranteed.

Seuss’s brilliant cartoons and clever words make his books a delight for adults but they attract mostly children of course. His stories teach kids moral lessons but in indirect and entertaining ways.

The first Seuss book I was given was The Lorax, written just as the 60s were becoming the 70s. Seuss was ahead of his time, and in this book the dawn of concern for environmental problems are shown as the Lorax “who speaks for the trees” battles against an evil businessman who wants to destroy the forest and make goods “which everyone needs”.

It’s not only a warning of the heavy price of environmental destruction, written well before most people had thought to worry, but it’s also a smart analysis of consumer societies: “Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not.” This is of course a moral message, but not of the kind designed to persuade the youngsters into behavior that adults want.

I could go on, but hey, it’s a birthday, and I’m sure you folks have some good toasts to raise for the party…

1.What’s the purpose of this passage?

A. To introduce Dr. Seuss’s life.

B. To analyze Dr. Seuss’s books.

C. To describe Dr. Seuss’s writing style.

D. To celebrate Dr. Seuss’s achievements.

2.Why does the author include Dr. Seuss’s poem?

A. To encourage readers to use their brains and choose their own way.

B. To give readers a sample of Seuss’s story The Lorax.

C. To provide readers with an example of Seuss’s writing style.

D. To explain how relevant Seuss’s stories remain today.

3. Why do adults also enjoy Seuss’s books?

A. His words and pictures are imaginative enough to be enjoyed by all.

B. His books give children obvious moral messages to learn from.

C. He writes about adult topics in a way that is understandable to children.

D. He was the first person to write about the environment.

4.When was the book The Lorax written?

A. Early 1960s. B. Early 1970s.

C. Late 1960s. D. Late 1970s.

5. Which of the following is true about Seuss?

A. Many of the issues he discussed attracted greater concern in later years.

B. He is widely considered as the twentieth-century Shakespeare.

C. His books are more popular now than when they were first published.

D. Most readers thought his ideas were difficult to understand.

People from East Asia tend to have more difficulty than those from Europe in distinguishing facial expressions---and a new report published online in Current Biology explains why.

Rachael Jack, University of Glasgow researcher, said that rather than scanning evenly 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 facial expressions,” Jack said. “Westerners look at the eyes and the mouth in equal measure, while Easterners favor the eyes and ignore 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, facial expressions that had been considered universally recognizable cannot be used reliably to convey emotion in cross-cultural situations.

The researchers studied cultural differences in the recognition of facial expressions by recording the facial movements of 13 Western people and 13 Eastern people while they observed pictures of expressive faces and put them into categories: happy, sad, surprised, fearful, disgusted, or angry. They compared how accurately participants read those facial expressions using their particular eye movement strategies.

It turned out that Easterners focused much greater attention on the eyes and made significantly more errors than Westerners did. “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 while Westerners use the whole face to 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, when it comes to communicating emotions across cultures, Easterners and Westerners will find themselves lost in translation.

1.The discovery shows that Westerners______.

A. pay equal attention to the eyes and the mouth

B. consider facial expressions universally reliable

C. observe the eyes and the mouth in different ways

D. have more difficulty in recognizing facial expression

2.What were the people asked to do in the study?

A. To make a face at each other

B. To get their faces impressive

C. To classify some face pictures

D. To observe the researchers’ faces

3.What does the underlined word “they” in paragraph 6 refer to?

A. The participants in the study

B. The researchers of the study

C. The errors made in the study

D. The data collected from the study

4.In comparison with the Westerners, Easterners are likely to_____.

A. do translation more successfully

B. study the mouth frequently

C. examine the eyes more attentively

D. read facial expressions more correctly
