Peple frm East Asia tend t have mre difficulty than thse frm Eurpe in distinguishing facial expressins—and a new reprt published nline in CurrentBilgy explains why.
Rachael Jack,University f Glasgw researcher,said that rather than scanning evenly(均勻地) acrss a face as Westerners d,Easterners fix their attentin n the eyes.
“We shw that Easterners and Westerners lk at different face features t read facial expressins,”Jack said.“Westerners lk at the eyes and the muth in equal measure,whereas Easterners favr the eyes and neglect(忽略) the muth.”
Accrding t Jack and her clleagues,the discvery shws that human cmmunicatin f emtin is mre cmplex than previusly believed.As a result,facial expressins that had been cnsidered universally recgnizable cannt be used t reliably cnvey emtin in crss-cultural situatins.
The researchers studied cultural differences in the recgnitin f facial expressins by recrding the eye mvements f 13 Western Caucasians and 13 East Asian peple while they bserved pictures f expressive faces and put them int categries:happy,sad,surprised,fearful,disgusted,angry,r neutral.They cmpared hw accurately participants read thse facial expressins using their particular eye mvement strategies.
It turned ut that Easterners fcused much greater attentin n the eyes and made significantly mre errrs than Westerners.“The cultural differences in eye mvements that they shw is prbably a reflectin f cultural difference in facial expressins,”Jack said.“Our data suggest that whereas Westerners use the whle face t cnvey emtin,Easterners use the eyes mre and the muth less.”
In shrt,the data shw that facial expressins are nt universal signals f human emtin.Frm here n,examining hw cultural factrs have diversified these basic scial skills will help ur understanding f human emtin.Otherwise,when it cmes t cmmunicating emtin acrss cultures,Easterners and Westerners will find themselves lst in translatin.
6.The discvery shws that Westerners .
A.cnsider facial expressins universally reliable
B.pay equal attentin t the eyes and the muth

B.study the muth mre frequently

Over the past five years,researchers in artificial intelligence have becme the rck stars f the technlgy wrld.A branch f AI knwn as deep learning,has prven s useful that skilled peratrs can cmmand six-figure salaries t build sftware fr sme cmpanies.The tp names can earn ver $1 millin a year.
The traditinal way t get these jbs has been a Dctr's degree in cmputer science frm ne f America's tp universities.Earning ne takes years and requires a persn wh can be devted t study,which is rare amng nrmal peple.Mrever,graduate students are regularly attracted away frm their studies by varius high-paid jbs.
That is changing.In Octber,2019,Fast.ai,an educatin nn-prfit based in San Francisc,kicked ff the third year f its curse in deep learning.Since its beginning,it has attracted mre than 100,000 students frm India t Nigeria.The curse cmes with a simple idea: there is n need t spend years btaining a Dctr's degree in rder t practise deep 's curse can be cmpleted in just seven weeks.
Fr example,a graduate frm Fast.ai's first year,Sara Hker,was hired int a big Internet cmpany's highly cmpetitive AI residency prgramme after finishing the curse,having never wrked n deep learning befre.She is nw a funding member f the cmpany's new AI research ffice in Accra,Ghana,the firm's first in Africa.
T make it accessible t anyne wh wants t learn hw t build AI sftware,Jeremy Hward,wh funded Fast.ai with Rachel Thmas,a mathematician,says middle schl mathematics is is nt the nly AI prgramme.AI4ALL,anther nn-prfit rganizatin,funded by leading technlgists including Dr.Fei-Fei Li,wrks t bring AI educatin t schlchildren that wuld therwise nt have access t it.
Hward's ambitins run deeper than just dealing with the shrtage in the AI labur market.His aim is t spread deep learning int many hands,s that it may be applied in as many fields as pssible.The ambitin,says Mr.Hward,is fr AI training sftware t becme as easy t use and cmmn as sending an email n a smart phne.
11.What's Paragraph 2 mainly abut?
A.The way t get a Dctr's degree.
B.The difficulties t get a Dctr's degree.

Dn't we all knw a “Happy Meal” when we see ne—the famus bxed meal that includes a hamburger,kid-sized French fries,fruits and milk,served with a ty that's extremely ppular with children wh lve t cllect them?
A Happy Meal is a frm f kids' meal sld at a certain fast-fd chain since 1979.A ty is included in the meal,bth f which are usually cntained in a bx r a paper bag.Hwever,cllectrs f these little tys will nt get them any lnger,since the cmpany will replace tys with bks and each f these bks will mainly pass n nutritinal messages.
Happy Meals are extremely ppular with kids,especially fr their cllectable tys,when yu cnsider that ver 1.3 billin f these packages are sld each year.These packages have been very cntrversial.Health supprters believe that drawing kids t these meals with tys is a clever way f prmting unhealthy fd chices.They see it as an advertising strategy f “catching its custmers yung”—a mve that has paid ff very well fr the fast-fd cmpany.
Child develpment experts say that fd habits get frmed in children by age six and cntinue thrugh t their adult life.Fatty and sugary fds such as thse served in Happy Meals are believed t play a big rle in grwing health prblems such as besity and diabetes.Public health care csts have gne up and untld amunts f mney have been spent n cping with these health prblems.On Nvember 2,2010,the San Francisc Bard f Supervisrs passed a law requiring that children's meals sld in restaurants must meet certain nutritinal standards befre they culd be sld with tys,t vercme the prblem f childhd besity—in ther wrds,the State f Califrnia tried t ban the tys in Happy Meals.Hwever,it was strngly ppsed by sme as being heavy-handed,and the ban was thrwn ut by the gvernment.
While sme peple believe that the fast-fd cmpany,with its large fllwing f children,can create a pwerful message thrugh the bks,thers believe its actins are cntradictry.Anyway,the cmpany is trying t spread the message f nutritin while it is serving fd that is anything but healthy.
16.The aim f the questin raised in Paragraph 1 is t .
A.give a surprise t the ty lvers
B.make readers think abut the answer
C.call n readers t buy bxed meals
D.get readers' attentin t the article
17.Bks will be added int Happy Meals t .
A.intrduce the usage f the tys
B.help kids learn abut nutritin
C.increase the cst f the meals
D.spread the message f fast fd
18.Accrding t Paragraph 3,Happy Meals .
A.cst mre mney than rdinary meals
B.help the custmers stay yung
C.have achieved the desired result
D.receive apprval frm health supprters
19.What is the authr's pinin abut Happy Meals?
A.They d n actual gd t children's health.
B.They teach children a lt abut nutritin.
C.They bring much fun t children.
D.They are ppular with the yung and the ld.
20.Which f the fllwing can be the best title fr the passage?

C.The Imprtance f Eating Healthy Fd
D.Are Happy Meals Really Happy?
