19.Have you ever had the strange feeling that you were being watched?You turn around and,sure enough,someone was looking right at you!
Paraps ychologists(灵学家) say that humans have a natural ability to sense when someone is looking at them.To research whether such a"six sense"really exists,Robert Baker,a psychologist(心理学家) at the University of Kentucky,did two experiments.
In the first one,Baker sat behind unknowing people in public places and stared at the backs of their heads for 5to 15minutes.The subjects (受试者) were eating,drinking,reading,studying,watching TV,or working at a computer.Baker made sure that the people could not tell that he was sitting behind them during those periods.Later when he questioned the subjects,almost all of them said they had no sense that someone was staring at them.
For the second experiment,Baker told the subjects that they would be stared at from time to time from behind in a laboratory setting.The people had to write down when they felt they being stared at and when they weren't.Baker found the subjects were no better at telling when they were stared at and when they weren't.
Baker concludes that people do not have the ability to sense when they are being stared at.If people doubt the outcomeof his two experiments,said Baker,"I suggest they repeat the experiments and see for themselves."

61.what's the aim of the two experiments for?D
A.Prove why humans have a sixth sense.
B.explain when people can have a sixth sense
C.show how people act while being watched in the lab.
D.study whether humans can sense when they are stared at.
62.what sense does parapsychologists say that humans have to?A
A.a natural ability       
B.a natural staring ability
C.a strange thinking     
D.a looking feeling
63.the underlined word"outcome"in the last paragraph most probably means?B
A.value         
B.result            
C.performance         
D.connection
64.in the second experiment,the subjectsB.
A.could tell when they were stared at and when they weren't.
B.couldn't tell when they were stared at and when they aeren't
C.couldn't tell when they were stared at but could tell when they weren't.
D.could tell when they were stared at but couldn't tell when they weren't.
65.what can we learn from the passage?C
A.People are born with a sixth sense.
B.the experiments support parapsychologists'idea.
C.the subjects do not have a sixth sense in the experiments.
D.people have a sixth sense in all places.

分析 你是否曾经有过这种奇怪的感觉,你是被监视?你转过身来,果然,有人正在盯着你!
心理学家(灵学家)说,人类有一个自然感觉.觉得有人在看着他们.要研究是否有这样的"第六感"真的存在,罗伯特贝克,心理学家在肯塔基大学,进行两个实验.
第一个实验,贝克坐在公共场所,在毫无知晓的人们后面盯着他们的背看5到15分钟.受试者吃,喝,读书,看电视,或在电脑上工作.贝克确保不能告诉人们,他坐在他们后面.后来当他问这个问题,几乎所有人都称他们没有感觉到有人正盯着他们.
第二个实验,贝克告诉受试者,他要不时从后面盯着一个实验室里的双面镜盯着他们看.人们必须写下什么时候他们感到被盯,以及什么时候他们没有被盯.贝克发现,受试人在说出他们被盯的时间与没有被盯的时间之间没有好转.
贝克得出结论,认为人们没有能力感到别人盯着他看或不看.如果人们质疑他的两个实验,贝克说,"我建议他们重复实验让自己看看."

解答 61.D.主旨大意题.根据To research whether such a"six sense"really exists,Robert Baker,a psychologist(心理学家) at the University of Kentucky,did two experiments可知,"要研究是否有这样的"第六感"真的存在,罗伯特贝克,心理学家在肯塔基大学,进行两个实验.",所以"下面两个实验的目的为否有这种能力存在",故选D.
62.A.细节题解题.根据Paraps ychologists(灵学家) say that humans have a natural ability to sense when someone is looking at them.可知,"心理学家(灵学家)说,人类有一个自然感觉到有人在看着他们.",故选A.
63.B.词义猜测题.根据If people doubt the outcome of his two experiments,said Baker,"I suggest they repeat the experiments and see for themselves"可知,"如果人们质疑他的两个实验的…,贝克说,"我建议他们重复实验让自己看看",这里应指质疑实验的结果,所以才会重复实验,其余选项"价值,表现,联系"不符合句意,故选B.
64.B.推理判断题.根据The people had to write down when they felt they being stared at and when they weren't.Baker found the subjects were no better at telling when they were stared at and when they weren't.可知,"人们必须写下什么时候他们感到被盯着看,以及什么时候他们没有被盯着看.贝克发现,受试人在说出他们被盯的时间与没有被盯的时间之间没有好转."故答案为:B.
65.C.主旨大意题.根据Baker concludes that people do not have the ability to sense when they are being stared at可知,"贝克得出结论,认为人们没有能力感到别人盯着他看或不看",所以"实验证实没有第六感的存在",故选C.
