Insects’ lives are very short and they have many enemies, but they must survive long
enough to breed and perpetuate their kind The less insect-like they look, the better their chance
of survival To look “inedible” by imitating plants is a way frequently used by insects to survive Mammals rarely imitate plants, but many fish and invertebrates do
The stick caterpillar is well named It is hardly distinguishable from a brown or green
twig This caterpillar is quite common and can be found almost anywhere in North America It is also called “measuring worm: or “inchworm” It walks by arching its body, then stretching out and grasping the branch with its front feet then looping its body again to bring the hind feet forward When danger threatens, the stick caterpillar stretches its body away from the branch at
an angle and remains rigid and still, like a twig, until the danger has passed
Walking sticks, or stick insects, do not have to assume a rigid, twig-like pose to find protection; they look like inedible twigs in any position There are many kinds of walking sticks, ranging in size from the few inches of the North American variety to some tropical species that may be over a foot long When at rest their front legs are stretched out, heightening their camouflage Some of the tropical species are adorned with spines or ridges, imitating the thorny bushes or trees in which they live

suddenly disappear from view by folding their wings and sitting quietly among the plants that
they resemble

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 from 35 to 42.
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 and rounding the mouth say the same thing in Minneapolis as it does in Madagascar? Much research on emotional expressions 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 Artic 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 express 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 age 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 emotions Moreover, as Charles Darwin pointed out over a century ago, some emotional expressions seem to appear across species boundaries Cross-cultural psychologists tell us that certain emotional responses carry different meanings in different cultures For example, what emotion do you suppose might be conveyed
Trang 5by 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 expressions

C are sensitive towards others' emotions
