13、led Princess Awesome. Rebecca Melsky set up the business. She says its products for girls have some designs normally found on boys clothes.It all started two years ago when Rebecca was hoping to buy clothing for her two-year-old, who liked robots, trucks and spaceships.“One day when I walked through
14、 a girls store, I thought to myself I wish theyd make one of those beautiful dresses that also have a robot on it because she will love that. And I thought someone should do that. Maybe I should do that,” Rebecca, said.Her friend Eva St. Clair believed she should, and their business was born. The wo
15、men sold the first 70 dresses they made at a market. So they decided to expand their business online. Their products sold very well there, too.“They sold out so fast that I could not make them fast enough. We decided it was time to think about a factory,” Rebecca said.So they started to raise money
16、from people over the Internet. The women raised more than 215,000 within days, far more than the 35,000 they expected.“Our biggest challenge is going to be how we expand as rapidly as people seem to want us to,” Rebecca said.The women hope Princess Awesome will expand into products for girls of all

19、happiness have a scent? When someone is happy, can you smell it? You can usually tell when someone is happy based on seeing them smile, hearing them laugh or perhaps from receiving a big hug. But can you also smell their happiness? Surprising new research suggests that happiness does indeed have a s
20、cent, and that the experience of happiness can be transmitted through smell, reports Phys.org. For the study, 12 young men were shown videos meant to bring about a variety of emotions while researchers gathered sweat samples from them. All of the men were healthy and none of them were drug users or
21、smokers, and all were asked to abstain from drinking or eating smelly foods during the study period. Those sweat samples were then given to 36 equally healthy young women to smell, while researchers monitored their reactions. Only women were selected to smell the samples, apparently because previous
22、 research has shown that women have a better sense of smell than men and are also more sensitive to emotional signalingthough its unclear why only men were chosen to produce the scents. Researchers found that the behavior of the women after smelling the scentsparticularly their facial expressionsind
23、icated a relationship between the emotional states of the men who produced the sweat and the women who sniffed them. “Human sweat produced when a person is happy brings about a state similar to happiness in somebody who breathes this smell,” said study co-author Gun Semin, a professor at Koc Univers
24、ity in Turkey. This is a fascinating finding because it not only means that happiness does have a scent, but that the scent is capable of transmitting the emotion to others. The study also found that other emotions, such as fear, seem to carry a scent too. This ensures previous research suggesting t
25、hat some negative emotions have a smell, but it is the first time this has proved to be true of positive feelings. Researchers have yet to isolate(分离) exactly what the chemical compound for the happiness smell is, but you might imagine what the potential applications for such a finding could be. Hap
26、piness perfumes, for instance, could be invented. Scent therapies(香味疗法)could also be developed to help people through depression or anxiety. Perhaps the most surprising result of the study, however, is our broadened understanding of how emotions get communicated, and also how our own emotions are po
27、tentially managed through our social context and the emotional states of those around us. 24. What is the main finding of the new research? A. Pleasant feelings can be smelt out. B. Negative emotions have a smell. C. Men produce more sweats. D. Women have a better sense of smell.25 The underlined pa

Perfumes could help people understand each other. B. Some smells could be created to improve our appearance. C. Perfumes could be produced to cure physi

A. happiness comes from a scent of sweat B. social surroundings can influence our emotions C. people need more emotional communication D. positive energy can deepen understanding CAfter
30、 having more than a few acquaintances online, it might come a blow to keen social networkers like Barack Obama, or even Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg himself. According to a research, the average person has in fact twice as many online friends as physical ones. Users of social-networking sites ha
31、ve on average 121 online friends as compared with physical ones. The study also claims that people tend to be more open, confident and honest with their virtual friends than their “real” ones. “For most people , the Internet is a way of keeping in touch with loved ones and friends, but for people wh
32、o are isolated due to illness, it plays a more vital role, and can often act as a lifeline.” says Helen Oxley, a psychologist at Wythenshawe hospital. “People with illnesses often rely on the Internet to facilitate(促进) friendships, since they blog and use networking sites as a way of dealing with th
33、eir illness. It can foster a sense of social connection for those who frequently feel isolated, which is important to psychological well-being.” In wider society, the ways in which friendships are formed are changing, with people recognizing that they can develop deep and meaningful connections with
34、 others that theyve never met, and may never meet. About one in 10 people has either met their best friends online, or believes they can make lifelong friends on the Web. The findings highlight how social introductions are also changing. Only five percent would ask for someones phone number, while 2
35、3 percent are now likely to ask for an email address or a full name with the intention of adding the person to their social network. At the same time, however, a questionnaire completed by 4,427 suggests that 20 percent of parents believe their childrens education is affected by surfing the Net. The
36、y think their children are doing poorly at the school due to the amount of time they spend on non-educational websites.28. The underlined word “it” in Para 1 most probably refers to _. A. people spending too much time surfing the Net B. people relying on the Internet to connect with friendsC. people

A. sick people can recover more quickly by surfing the Net B. students get important information online C. students who surf the net always perform not so well D. p

Although the rats were newborns, the researchers d
42、iscovered that their head-direction cells (which help them recognize the direction theyre facing) were fully grown and developed. The rats, it seemed, were born with a sense of direction. And they hadnt even opened their eyes yet!Humans, of course, are not rats. But the hippocampusthe brain area we
43、use for navigationis similar in most mammals. If the rats compass develops this way, then its likely that a humans compass does, too.If were born with a sense of direction, then why are some people so good at getting lost? The scientists found that the two other cellsplace and grid cellsdeveloped wi

The two cells work together, and thats where the trouble might be.People who took part in a 2013 study played a video game that required them to travel quickl

According to researcher Michael Kahana, differences in how grid cells work may help explain why some people have a better sense of direction th
