Even with little exposure to cultural standards of beauty, “infants treat attractive faces as distinctive regardless of the sex, age a nd race of the stimulus(刺激物) faces,” write psychologist Judith H.Langlois and her colleagues in the January DEVELOPMENTAL PSYCHOLOGY.
In their experiment, 5 healthy 6-month-old infants from middle-class families viewed slides showing eight pairs of white male faces and eight pairs of white female faces. Each pair, displayed for 10 seconds, consisted of one attractive and one unattractive face, as previously judged by a group of male and female college students. An experimenter viewed the young participants on a video monitor and recorded the direction and duration of each infant’s gaze.
The 35 boys and 25 girls looked longer at both male and female faces judged as attractive, the researchers found.
Their second study of 6-month-old involved 15 boys and 25 girls, mostly white, who saw eight pairs of slides showing an attractive and an unattractive black female, as previously judged by both white and black college students. Again, the babies looked much longer at attractive faces.
Finally, 19 boys and 20 girls, all 6 months old and almost all of them white, viewed eight pairs of slides showing the faces of 3-month-old boys and girls previously rated as attractive or unattractive by college students. Attractive baby faces drew signficantly longer looks, the psychologists report.
Further studies must explore whether infants take attractive faces as “best examples” of a face, the investigators claim Langlois and a coworker recently reported that attractive faces may possess features that approximate the mathematical average of all faces in particular population.

A.Male infants looked longer only at female ones.
B.Females looked more attractive than males.
C.Sixty 6?month?old babies looked longer at the attractive faces, male or female.

B.Langlois and her partners will focus on the other fields of infants
C.Langlois and her partners have achieved success in studying the infants’ mind
D.Langlois and her partners have found a more interesting field
3.What can be inferred from the passage?
A.All babies, white or black, tend to share with the college students the preference for attractive faces.
B.White babies prefer white faces to black ones.
C.Babies tend to get interested in the attractive faces of the opposite sex.
D.Beauty has something to do with a person’s age, race and sex

The Top 4 Lies Girls Hear
1. “You'll never be good at math.”
It's generally accepted that boys are good at math while girls aren't. The fact is that it isn't true—at least, it doesn't have to be. When girls reach their teens,most of them lose their interest in math. They're trying to be regarded as female(女性).They want to stay away from things that are boy things, and math is still considered a boy thing. Math class is hard, but if you gave it a chance you could be great at math, especially beacuse you are a girl.
2. “Being skinny is good, and how you diet is your business.”
Lots of web sites tell visitors that losing interest in eating is a beautiful thing. These“skinny is better”sites are lying. Losing interest in eating is a disease, not a fashion statement. It can kill you.
3. “You don't deserve to make as much money as a guy.”
It's said that in 2002 women who work full-time earn about 23 percent less than guys earn. Once you see real women succeeding in cool jobs, you'll truly get that you're worth just as much as—or more than any guys.
4. “Caffeine(咖啡因)will help you study better.”
Caffeinated soft drinks have long been advertised as must haves when you have to work very hard. But if you want to do your body a big favor, you'd better give up caffeine altogether.
1.Why do girls lose their interest in math?
A.Because they don't realize the importance of math.
B.Because math class is too hard for girls.
C.Because they aren't interested in the things which are considered boy things.
D.Because girls are not as clever as boys.

Most parents, I suppose, have had the experience of reading a bedtime story to their children. And they must have 11 how difficult it is to write a 12 children’s book. Either the author has aimed too 13 , so that the children can’t follow what is in his (or more often, her) story, 14 the story seems to be talking to the readers.
The best children’s books are 15 very difficult nor very simple, and satisfy both the 16 who hears the story and the adult who 17 it. Unfortunately, there are in fact few books like this, 18 the problem of finding the right bedtime story is not 19 to solve. This may be why many of the books regarded as 20 of children’s literature(文學) were in fact written for 21 . “Alice in wonderland” is perhaps the most obvious of this.
Children, left for themselves, often 22 the worst possible interest in literature. Just leave a child in a bookshop or a 23 and he will more willingly choose the books written in an imaginative way, or have a look at most children’s comics(連環(huán)畫), full of the stories and jokes which are the objections of teachers and right-thinking parents.
Perhaps we parents should stop 24 to brainwash children into accepting our taste in literature. After all children and adults are so 25 that we parents should not expect that they will enjoy the same books. So I suppose we’ll just have to compromise(妥協(xié)) over the bedtime story.
