26、   Have you ever had the strange feeling that you were being watched? You turned around and, sure enough, someone was looking right at you!

Parapsychologists(灵学家) say that humans have a natural ability to sense when someone is looking at them. To research whether there is such a “sixth sense”, 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 5 to 15 minutes. The subjects(受试者) were eating, drinking, reading studying, watching TV, or working at a computer. Baker made sure that the people didn't know that he was sitting behind them during those periods. Later, when he asked 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 a two way mirror in a laboratory. The people had to write down when they felt they were being stared at and when they weren't. Baker found that the subjects were no better at telling when they were stared at and when they weren't.

Baker finds out that people do not have the ability to sense when they're being stared at. “If people doubt the outcome of my two experiments,” said Baker, “I suggest they repeat the experiments and see for themselves.”

【1】What's the purpose of the two experiments?

A.To explain when people can have a sixth sense.

B.To study whether humans can sense when they are stared at

C.To prove why humans have a sixth sense.

【2】We can know from the two experiments that ________

A.Baker did the first experiment in public places.

B.Baker did the second experiment for about five to fifteen minutes.

C.all the subjects had to write down how they felt when being stared at.

【3】The underlined word “outcome” can be changed into ________.

A.value B.result C.behavior

【4】What can we learn from the passage?

A.The subjects do not have a sixth sense in the experiments.

B.People have a sixth sense in all places.

C.The experiments support parapsychologists' idea.

【5】What is the passage mainly about?

A.Natural abilities of animals. B.The famous experiments. C.The sixth sense.

27、X-rays were discovered in 1895 by a German professor, Wilhelm Roentgen. People all over the world were amazed by his invention, the X-ray machine. This invention was so important that Roentgen was awarded the first Nobel Prize for Physics in 1901.

The telephone was invented by Alexander Graham Bell, a doctor and speech teacher. The first phone call was made by Bell in 1876. He had spilled (溢出) acid (酸), Thomas Watson, to help him. The first words spoken on the telephone were Mr. Watson.

Television was invented in 1926 by John Logie Baird, a Scottish inventor. Baird’s television certainly didn’t look like a television today! It was made of a box, knitting needles, a bicycle lamp, and a cardboard disc. Electronic televisions like the ones we have today were invented by Vladimir Zworykin in the 1920s in the United States.

The first computer was built in 1946 by two American engineers, J. Presper Eckert, Jr, and it was so large that it took up an entire (整个的) room!

Later, in 1971, the “microchip” was invented (包括) in almost everything we do and are found almost everywhere we go.
