题型:单项选择题

题目:

She’s cute, no question. Symmetrical features, flawless skin, looks to be 22 years old—entering any meat-market bar, a woman lucky enough to have this face would turn enough heads to stir a breeze. But when Victor Johnston points and clicks, the face on his computer screen changes into a state of superheated, crystallized beauty. "You can see it. It’s just so extraordinary," says Johnston, a professor of biopsychology at New Mexico State University who sounds a little in love with his creation.
The transformation from pretty woman to knee-weakening babe is all the more amazing because the changes wrought by Johnston’s software are, objectively speaking, quite subtle. He created the original face by digitally averaging 16 randomly selected female Caucasian faces. The changing program then exaggerated the ways in which female faces differ from male faces, creating, in humanbeauty-science field, a "hyper-female". The eyes grew a bit larger, the nose narrowed slightly and the lips plumped. These are shifts of just a few millimeters, but experiments in this country and Scotland are suggesting that both males and females find "feminized" versions of averaged faces more beautiful.
Johnston hatched this little movie as part of his ongoing study into why human beings find some people attractive and others homely. He may not have any rock-solid answers yet, but he is far from alone in attempting to apply scientific inquiry to so ambiguous a subject. Around the world, researchers are marching into territory formerly staked out by poets and painters to uncover the underpinnings of human attractiveness.
The research results so far are surprising—and humbling. Numerous studies indicate that human beauty may not be simply in the eye of the beholder or an arbitrary cultural artifact. It may be ancient and universal, wrought through ages of evolution that rewarded reproductive winners and killed off losers. If beauty is not truth, it may be health and fertility: Halle Berry’s flawless skin may fascinate moviegoers because, at some deep level, it persuades us that she is parasite-free.
Human attractiveness research is a relatively young and certainly contentious field—the allure of hyper-females, for example, is still hotly debated—but those on its front lines agree on one point: We won’t conquer "looks-ism" until we understand its source. As psychologist Nancy Etcoff puts it: "The idea that beauty is unimportant or a cultural construct is the real beauty myth. We have to understand beauty, or we will always be enslaved by it. \

Victor Johnston has produced such an attractive face in order to ______.

A.give his computer a beautiful screen

B.study the myth of human attractiveness

C.prove the human capacity to create beauties

D.understand why Caucasian faces are special

转身

李汉荣

  一转身,那个动人的身影就不见了。在人海里,想再次与她相遇,哪怕匆匆一瞬,都是不可能了。

  在都市、在广场、在车站、在机场、在大街、在超市、在乡野、在人流聚散的地方,我经常有这种感受:转身,就是永别。

  在旅途上,这“转身”的频率更大,体验更多。一转身,那个清丽的少女不见了,她失踪于汹涌的街市人潮;一转身,那个少妇不见了,她那么端庄,贤淑写满了她的表情,然而,一转身,呼啸的列车载走了她;一转身,那个老者不见了,这是我极少见到的“经典老者”,满头银发,一身素净,眉宇间透出气定神闲的沉静和慈祥,一转身,他不见了,车门关闭,车轮转动,速度,不知把他带往何方,我甚至没有看见他的背影。

  那一次我在北京火车站等车。在拥挤的人流里,我不小心踩了右面一个年轻人。我正准备道歉或接受责备,却看见转过来一张文雅谦和的脸,他说:“对不起你,我挡着你了。”我竟然被感动了,只顾欣赏这张善良的、有教养的脸,只顾欣赏这江南的表情——水的表情,却忘了对他说声“谢谢”,把最诚挚的心情告诉他。当我忽然记起,正要张口表达,人潮猛然涌了过来,一转身,我已找不到他,只看见攒动的人头,闪动的各色衣服……

  冬天,已经很冷了,西伯利亚寒流远道而来,遭遇袭击的当然是穷人,最可怜的是乞丐。乞丐不多,但不多的乞丐也常常有力地触动和唤醒我们冬眠的良心。在南大街路口,我看见一位衣衫褴褛的中年乞丐。我急忙赶回家,拿上我去年穿过的那件防寒服找他。可是来到南大街,已看不见他,于是我在东大街找他,又在北大街找他,都没有找到。最后我来到丁字路口,还是没有找到他,却遇到了一个老年乞丐,一转身,苦难交换了方向,交换了背影。于是,我把防寒服披在这位穷苦老人的身上,希望他下降的体温能稍稍回升,希望降温的人性稍稍回升。我由此想到,亚洲的穷人,非洲的穷人,全世界的穷人,想到徘徊在文明大街上的那些孤苦身影,一转身,他们到哪里去了?而文明,你能否追上去,轻轻拉起那褴褛的衣襟,或者握起那空空的手,仔细看看他们的眼睛?他们到哪里去了,一转身?

  一转身,车窗外的河流已经不知去向;一转身,门前的那只鸟已不见踪影;一转身,天上的那座虹桥已经悄然消失;一转身,水里的鱼已经没入深渊;一转身,父亲已经走远,新垒的坟上,墓草青青……

  旭日一转身变成落日,青丝一转身变成白发,爱情一转身变成婚姻,诗一转身变成散文,羊群一转身变成毛衣……等一等,等一等,能否再转回来?
