Scientists say theres a good chance you do.This comes from a new study published in a magazine. Researchers from Israel found thatour given names may have something

16、to do with our facial (面部的) appearances.Lead writer Yonat Zwebner of a university, along with her team, did eight different experiments (实验) in Israel and France. The different experiments were set up to answer two main questions:whether people can correctly guess a persons name based only on a phot

17、o of a face and what is behind this matching effect.During the experiments, researchers asked students to look at photos of peoples faces andguess each persons name from a list of four choices. They correctly guessed the right name 38 percent of the time, which was better than the 25 percent of a ra

18、ndom (随机的) guess.Whats more, when the faces the students looked at came from within their own country, they were able to best match the faces to the names. French students were better at matching only French names and faces while Israeli students were better at matching only Hebrew names and Israeli

19、 faces.Researchers believe it is possible that people change their appearances without paying attention to it, to match their names. One study especially backed up this idea, showing that a hairstyle, something that can be changed by people easily, was enough to guide others in correctly guessing th

20、eir names.“Earlier research has shown there are cultural stereotypes (偏见) carried by names, includinghow someone should look. For example, people are more likely to imagine a person named Bob to have a rounder face than a person named Tim. We believe these stereotypes can, over time, influence peopl

21、es facial appearances,” Zwebner said.The results of the experiments may even make parents think twice when choosing a name for their children.“If a name can influence appearance, it can influence many other things. This research opens an important direction that may suggest how parents should consid

That is not success.”“How

39、about being able to provide for your family?” A blonde girl named Sandy in the front suggested as an answer.“Now were getting closer,” Mr. Black smiled, “but try thinking about what you need and what you want.”“Getting everything you want.” Tom shouted out an answer again, trying for more laughs.Mr.

40、 Black sighed（叹气）.“ I believe weve already talked about excess versus(与比较) success.”“Getting everything you need, but some of what you want?” James, sitting in the back wondered aloud.“Quite right!” Mr. Black clapped. “Success is getting everything you need and some of what you want. The more you ge

41、t that you want, the more successful you are. You do reach a point where you are living in excess, though.”“What does this have to do with business?” Tom asked. It seemed if it wasnt funny, he wasnt happy.“Well, Tom, think of it this way: the point of business is to make a living to support your fam

42、ily. Once you have properly seen to (确保) their needs, you can then seen to getting the extras that you want.”“What if I dont have a family?” he continued to be difficult.“Then you have to provide for yourself, a family of one.”“He has goldfish to think about!” Peter, Toms friend, shouted out.“Then h

Henry was a pen name used by an American writer of short stories. His real name was William Sydney Porter. He was born in North Carolina in 1862. As a young

47、 boy he lived an exciting life. He did not go to school for very long, but he managed to teach himself everything he needed to know. When he was about 20 years old, O. Henry went to Texas, where he tried different jobs. He first worked on a newspaper, and then had a job in a bank. When some money we

48、nt missing from the bank, O. Henry was believed to have stolen it. Because of that, he was sent to prison. During the three years in prison, he learned to write short stories.

52、y schools want to see young children spend more time learning. Some get rid of nap time. They think time spent sleeping is wasted time. And they feel kids may not really need to nap (午睡) anyway.Ending afternoon naps might be a mistake, though. A new study looked at school nap time. It shows that goi

53、ng without a nap can cause problems for some children. That makes it harder for them to remember what they learn. The new study was done by Rebecca Spencer and Tracy Riggins. Both are scientists who study learning and memory.Children need less sleep as they get older. However, children are not all t

54、he same. They stop needing to nap at different ages. Some stop napping every day by age 4. Others still nap daily at age 6. Also, the need to nap doesnt just suddenly disappear, Spencer said. It can come and go as children develop. Children grow very quickly. All that growth can be tiring. Children

55、may be fine without naps at one point. A month later, they may need to take naps again.All children need a good nights sleep in order to remember and learn. However, some children need more sleep than others. To keep what theyve learned, these children need to nap during the day. Nighttime sleep jus

56、t isnt enough. Riggins and Spencer set out to prove this. They asked children at six preschools to play a memory game. After the children finished the game, some were told to nap. The others were kept from napping. The following morning, the two scientists brought the children back.They wanted to te

57、st how much the children remembered from the day before. They found some big differences. Students who were kept awake forgot more than students who had napped.Scientist Peg Oliveira has also studied nap time. She says school naps can be particularly important for kids who might be suffering from (遭

58、受) tough times at home. They often get less sleep at home than other kids. Some do not have their own room. Others may be homeless at times.“Those kids might not be having a solid night of sleep,” Oliveira said. For them, school nap time is extra important.1The underline phrase “get rid of” in Parag
