7、a hero.However, the meaning of a hero _5_(change) in the past fifty years, and a common man can _6_ be a hero. A person who has done a great job is a hero.

8、word, heroism keeps changing its _9_ .The time has come _10_ everyone tries to be a hero. Lets try to be one.1解析前面的主语a hero表示“任何一个英雄”的概念，由who引导的定语从句可以断定横线处应该是表示人的代词，所以填one。答案one2解析前面的谓语是一般过去时，因此此处应该使用fight的过去式，故填fought。答案fought3解析该句子具有完整的主谓语结构，由此可知横线处应该是副词修饰整个句子，因此加-ly构成副词usually。答案Usually4解析这里是指“英雄
9、的称号”，表示特指，应该用定冠词the。答案the5解析从in the past fifty years可以知道谓语应该使用现在完成时has changed。答案has changed6解析这里考查语篇的意义。前文叙述了大英雄的概念，这里笔锋一转，说普通人也可以成为英雄，因此此处填also。答案also7解析通过观察前句和后句的定语从句可知，此处的定语从句缺少主语，先行词是A sportsman，所以用who或者that。答案who/that8解析这里是对语境的考查，从后面的定语in a school可推知，这里应填student。答案student9解析这也是一个语境词，意思是说英雄的含义在
10、不断变化，应填meaning与第二段的第一句照应。答案meaning10解析空处及其后面部分是定语从句，故此处用when来引导定语从句修饰time。答案when阅读理解。 People from East Asia tend to have more difficulty than those from Europe in distinguishing facial expressions and a new report published online in Current Biology explains why. Rachael Jack, University of Glasgow
11、researcher, said that rather than scanning evenly(均匀的) across a face as Westerners do, Easterners fix their attention on the eyes.

12、 whereas Easterners favor the eyes and neglect (忽略) the mouth. According to Jack and her colleagues, the discovery shows that human communication of emotion is more complex than previously believed.

14、appy, sad, surprised, fearful, disgusted, angry, or neutral. They compared how accurately participants read those facial expressions using their particular eye movement strategies.

15、sterners. The cultural difference in eye movements that they show is probably a reflection of cultural difference in facial expressions, Jack said. Our data suggest that whereas Westerners use the whole face to convey emotion, Easterners use the eyes more and mouth less. In short, the data show that
16、 facial expressions are not universal signals of human emotion. From here on, examining how cultural factors have diversified these basic social skills will help our understanding of human emotion.
