We rose tint our memories and put ourselves into self-affirming situations. We become defensive when criticized, and apply negative stereotypes to others to boost our own esteem, we stalk around thinking we’re hot stuff. Psychologist and behavioral scientist Nicholas Epley oversaw a key studying into self-enhancement and attractiveness. Rather that have people simply rate their beauty compress with others, he asked them to identify an original photogragh of themselves’ from a lineup including versions that had been altered to appear more and less attractive. Visual recognition, reads the study, is “an automatic psychological process occurring rapidly and intuitively with little or no apparent conscious deliberation”. If the subjects quickly chose a falsely flattering image- which must did- they genuinely believed it was really how they looked. Epley found no significant gender difference in responses. Nor was there any evidence that, those who self-enhance the must (that is, the participants who thought the most positively doctored picture were real) were doing so to make up for profound insecurities. In fact those who thought that the images higher up the attractiveness scale were real directly corresponded with those who showed other makers for having higher self-esteem. “I don’t think the findings that we having have are any evidence of personal delusion”, says Epley. “It’s a reflection simply of people generally thinking well of themselves’. If you are depressed, you won’t be self-enhancing. Knowing the results of Epley ‘s study,it makes sense that why people heat photographs of themselves Viscerally-on one level, they don’t even recognise the person in the picture as themselves, Facebook therefore ,is a self-enhancer’s paradise,where people can share only the most flattering photos, the cream of their wit ,style. ,beauty, intellect and lifestyle. it’s not that people’s profiles are dishonest,says catalina toma of Wiscon—Madison university ,”but they portray an idealized version of themselves. According to the first paragraph, social psychologist have found that ______ . A.our self-ratings are unrealistically high B.illusory superiority is baseless effect C.our need for leadership is unnatural D.self-enhancing strategies are ineffective Visual recognition is believed to be people’s______ .A.rapid watching B.conscious choice C.intuitive response D.automatic self-defence Epley found that people with higher self-esteem tended to______ .A.underestimate their insecurities B.believe in their attractiveness C.cover up their depressions D.oversimplify their illusions The word “Viscerally”(Line 2,para.5) is closest in meaning to_____.A.instinctively B.occasionally C.particularly D.aggressively It can be inferred that Facebook is self-enhancer’s paradise because people can _____.A.present their dishonest profiles B.define their traditional life styles C.share their intellectual pursuits D.withhold their unflattering sides 请帮忙给出每个问题的正确答案和分析，谢谢！

It is the same in history. Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them. Sometimes men did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country，but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war. Sometimes there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to write. For example, we know a good deal about the people who lived in China 4, 000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them. But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa because they had not learned to write. Sometimes, of course, even if the people cannot write, they may know something of the past. They have heard about it from older people and often songs and dances and stories have been made about the most important happenings, and these have been sung and acted and told for many generations, for most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past. This we may call ？remembered history ” . Some of it has now been written down. It is not so exact or so valuable to us as written history is, because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing. But if there are no written records, such spoken stories are often very helpful. Which of the following is NOT suggested in the passage？ A.Written history is more reliable. B.Written records play an important role in learning about history. C.A written account of our daily activities helps to answer many questions. D.Where there are no written records, there is no history. Little is known about the central Africa 200 years ago because ______.A.there was nothing worth writing down at that time B.people there ignored the importance of keeping a record C.people there did not know how to write D.the written records were perhaps destroyed by a fire “ Remembered history” refers to ______.A.history based on a person’s imagination B.stories of important happenings passed down from mouth to mouth C.songs and dances about the most important events. D.both B and C “ Remembered history” is regarded as valuable only when ______.A.it is written down B.No written account is available C.it proves to be timely D.People are interested in it It is suggested that we could have learned more about our past if ancient people had ______.A.kept a written record of every past event B.burnt their written records in wars C.told exact stories of the most important happenings D.made more songs and dances 请帮忙给出每个问题的正确答案和分析，谢谢！

It's always a good idea to put on your seat belt when you're in a car. Why？ Think about this example: You put an egg on a skateboard(滑板) and give it a push. If the skateboard hits a stone, it will stop, but the egg won't. It will fly through the air, hit the ground and break. Now, think what would happen if you tied the egg to the skateboard. When the skateboard hits a stone, the egg won't go flying. It will stay safely on the skateboard. Volvo, a famous Swedish carmaker, was the first to use seat belts in 1949. Air bags are also very important for car safety, because sometimes a seat belt isn't enough. If the car is going really fast and runs into something, seat belts could even hurt the people who wear them. Most newer cars have air bags in front of and next to the seats. When a car hits something, its air bags will come out quickly--in less than one second--to keep the people inside safe. B-21. We have to be careful in driving a car mainly because it could be _____. A、little fun B、a pleasure C、a lot of trouble D、a great danger B-22. The example of an egg on a skateboard is used to show that _____.
