Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions
You can usually tell when your friends are happy or angry by the looks on their faces or by their actions This is useful because reading their emotional expressions helps you to know how to
respond to them Emotions have evolved to help us respond to important situations and to
convey our intentions to others But does raising the eyebrows (‘aibrau; eyslash) and rounding the mouth say the same thing in Minneapolis as it does in Madagascar? Much research on emotional expression has centered on such questions
According to Paul Ekman, the leading researcher in this area, people speak and understand substantially the same “facial language” Studies by Ekman’s group have demonstrated that humans share a set of universal emotional expressions that testify to the common biological heritage of the human species Smiles, for example, signal happiness and frowns indicate sadness
on the faces of people in such far-flung places as Argentina, Japan, Spain, Hungary, Poland, Sumatra, the United States, Vietnam, the jungles of New Guinea, and the Eskimo villages north of the Artie Circle Ekman and his colleagues claim that people everywhere can recognize at least seven basic emotions: sadness, fear, anger, disgust, contempt, happiness, and surprise There are, however, huge differences across cultures in both the context and intensity of emotional displays
- the so called display rules In many Asian cultures, for example, children are taught to control emotional responses - especially negative ones - while many American children are encouraged to
Trang 4express their feelings more openly Regardless of culture, however, emotions usually show themselves, to some degree, in people’s behavior From their first days of life, babies produce facial expressions that communicate their feelings
The ability to read facial expressions develops early, too Very young children pay close attention
to facial expressions, and by the age of five they nearly equal adults in their skill at reading
emotions on people’s faces This evidence all points to a biological underpinning for our abilities
to express and interpret a basic set of human emotion Moreover, as Charles Darwin pointed out over a century ago, some emotional responses carry different meanings in different cultures For example, what emotion do you suppose might be conveyed by sticking out your tongue? For Americans, this might indicate disgust, while in China it can signify surprise Likewise, a grin on an American face may indicate joy, while on a Japanese face it may just as easily mean embarrassment Clearly, culture influences emotional expression
Question 37: Smiles and frowns _
A have different meaning in different cultures B are universal expressions across cultures
C do not convey the same emotions in various cultures D are not popular everywhere
Question 38: Unlike American children, Asian children are encouraged to _
A display their emotions openly B change their behaviour
C conceal their positive emotions D control their emotions
Question 39: The phrase “This evidence” in the third paragraph refers to _
A the fact children can control their feelings B human facial expressions
C a biological underpinning for humans to express emotions
D the fact that children are good at recognizing others’ emotions
Question 40: The best title of the passage is _
A Human habit of displaying emotions B A review of research on emotional expressions
C Ways to control emotional expressions D Cultural universals in emotional expression
Question 41: According to the passage, we respond to others by _
A by observing their looks B observing their emotional expressions
C looking at their face D watching their actions
Question 42: Many studies on emotional expression try to answer the question whether _
A rounding the mouth has the same meaning in Minneapolis and Madagascar
B raising the eyebrows has similar meaning to rounding the mouth
C different cultures have similar emotional expressions
D eyebrow raising means the same in Minneapolis and Madagascar
Question 43: The word “evolved” in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to _
A reduced B increased C simplified D developed
Question 44: Paul Ekman is mentioned in the passage as an example of _
A investigators on universal emotional expressions
B researches who can speak and understand many languages
C researches on universal languages D lacked many main ingredients
