D

My mom has eyes in the back of her head. She also taught me from an early age to be suspicious of strange men, especially when they give you presents. One day, a “nice man” bearing flowers managed to steal 20 euros from her purse, while she was holding it in her hands. “He said he was collecting for a church charity so I pulled out a euro,” she explains, “He said ‘no, no, that’s too much’ and offered to look in my purse to find a smaller coin. He must have slid out that 20 euro note at the same time. I did not even notice until an hour later. I felt so stupid.”

According to neuroscientists, the key requirement for a successful pickpocket is not having nifty (熟練的) fingers, it’s having a working knowledge of the loopholes (漏洞) in our brain. The most important of these loopholes is the fact that our brains are not set up to multi-task. Most of the time that is a good thing — it allows us to filter (過濾) out all but the most important features of the world around us. But a good trickster can use it to against you. This kind of trick involves capturing all of somebody’s attention with other movements. Street pickpockets often use this effect to their advantage by manufacturing a situation that can not help but overload your attention system. Other strategies are more psychological. Pickpockets tend to hang out a “beware of pickpockets” signs, because the first thing people do when they read it is check they still have their valuables, helpfully giving away where they are. And in my mom’s case, the thief’s best trick was not coming across like a pickpocket. “He was a very nice guy and very confident. Not someone that would cause you to suspect,” she says. Apollo Robbins, a stage pickpocket, said smart move, like moving your hand in an arc (弧) motion rather than a straight line, is another popular strategy employed by tricksters.

At last, it should be pointed out that most thefts are opportunistic. The skill level of most thieves is far less than you think. But they are opportunistic enough to keep up with new technology.

1.What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to?

A. People’s brains are not designed to multi-task.

B. People’s brains can filter out all but the most important features.

C. Somebody’s attention can be distracted by a certain trick.

D. Somebody’s overload attention system.

2.According to the passage, all of the following are pickpocket strategies except _________.

A. having nifty fingers

B. hanging out “beware of pickpockets” sign

C. displaying confidence

D. moving hand in an arc motion

3.In the author’s opinion, _________.

A. people’s brains have many loopholes

B. thieves are more skillful than opportunistic

C. his mom’s losing money is nothing but a by-accident experience

D. signs reminding people of pickpockets can play a negative role in protecting valuables

4.What will the author probably talk about next?

A. Mom’s another suffering

B. Pickpockets concerning new technology

C. Pickpockets’ tricks

D. Apollo Robbins’ stage pickpockets

Think about the last time you felt afraid.Was it a fear of height?Did you oversleep on a weekday and fear you’d get into trouble at the office?In any case,you know what it feels like to feel fear.

But one woman doesn’t.The woman,code-named“UM”,gave her first-ever interview after years of being studied by a team of researchers.The woman is given a code name because the researchers want to protect her from anyone who would take advantage of her inability to feel afraid.

UM can’t tell you what fear is because she’s never experienced it.“I wonder what it’s like to actually be afraid of something,”she said.The formal name for the disease is Urbach-Wieth disease,which is characterized by a hoarse(粗啞的)voice,small bumps around the eyes,and calcium deposits(鈣沉積的)in the brain.

In the case of UM,the disease has transformed the part of her brain that controls the human response to fear.In the interview,UM talks about an event in her life where she was held at knifepoint and gunpoint,“I was walking to the store,and I saw a man on a park bench.He said.‘Come here,please,’so I went over to him.He grabbed me by the shirt,put a knife to my throat and told me he was going to cut me.I told him,‘Go ahead and cut me,’I wasn’t afraid at a11.And for some reason,he let me go.”

Doctors who have been studying UM’s condition for years have been trying different things that could strike fear into her.They finally figured something out—increasing UM’s carbon dioxide levels.Extra carbon dioxide concentration in the blood is known to cause fear and panic in health individuals.Increasing UM’s carbon dioxide levels did manage to give her a fright.

1.The text starts by_______.

A.challenging the reader B.solving daily problems

2.Why is the woman with Urbach-Wieth disease given a code name?

A.To tell her case from other patients.

B.To respect her privacy.

C.To meet the researchers’demands.

3.From UM’s case,we can know that Urbach-Wieth disease may________.

A.stop the brain from functioning normally

B.1ead to a decrease in calcium deposits

C.stop the brain from responding quickly

D.1ead to an increase in carbon dioxide

4.What will probably happen to UM?
