32、ouble. I was in the eighth grade at the time, and we were having a final test. During the test, the girl sitting next to me whispered something, but I didnt understand. So I leaned over her way and found out that she was trying to ask me if I had an extra pen. She showed me that hers was out of ink
33、and would not write. I happened to have an extra one, so I took it out of my pocket and put it on her desk. Later, after the test papers had been turned in, the teacher asked me to stay in the room when all the other students left. As soon as we were alone she began to talk to me about what it meant

35、hink seriously about all the things she had said, and then she told me I could leave. I walked out of the room wondering why she had chosen to talk to me about all those things.

40、f the roomDWe like people who look like us, because they tend to have personalities similar to our own. And, a new study suggests, the longer we are with someone, the more similarities in appearance grow. Researchers set out to study why couples often tend to look like one another. They asked 11 mal
41、e and 11 female participants to judge the age, attractiveness and personality of 160 real-life married couples. Photographs of husbands and wives were viewed separately, so the participants didnt know who was married to whom. The test participants rated men and women who were actual couples as looki
42、ng alike and having similar personalities. Also, the longer the couples had been together, the greater the similarities. The researchers guess that the sharing of experiences might affect how couples look. The idea that there is a connection between appearance and personality might seem strange at f
43、irst, but there could be biological reasons for a link, said study member Tony Little from the University of Liverpool in England.“The face displays our emotions and over time, emotional expressions may become written in the face,” Little told Live Science. For example, someone who smiles a lot may
44、develop lines and muscles that are suggestive of someone who is happy. Other studies have shown that partners who are genetically similar to each other tend to have happier marriages. The new study indicates that people have different features when using facial appearance to make decisions about som
45、eones personality, and that the particular cues(暗示) focused on change from face to face. Vital to the decision, however, are eyes and smiles. “Smiles are important social cues that may tell us whether or not someone is friendly, and eyes are also a traditional focus of attention,” Little said. Overa
46、ll face shape can be important too. For example, the combination of large chins and strong brow ridges(脊)can create an impression of disagreeableness and being unwilling to cooperate, Little said.41. Why do we like those who look like us?A. Because they tend to like us. B. Because opposites usually attract each other. C. Because their personalities are similar to ours. D. Because we often marry those who look like us.42. Why do some old lovers look alike according to the researchers? A. Because they live in
