Ⅰ.阅读理解A (2017·四川省乐山市高考模拟)When I was a kid one of their wellknown phrases—“good times”—in my daily conversations.Scientists have a name for this phenomenon:behavioral mimicry.:after spending ck up on his or her behavior or speech habits.You might even start to develop your friend’s habits without realizing it.There is a large body of literature concerning this sort of phenomenon,and it regularly happens for everything from body postures to accents to drink patterns.For example,one study found that young adults were more likely to drink their drinks directly after their samesex drinking partners,than to drink at their own paces. And the effect isn’t limited to reallife facetoface activities.Another study found that the same youdrinkthenIdrink pattern held even when watching a movie! In other words,people were more likely to take a drink of their drinks in a theater after watching the actors on the screen enjoy a drink.At least I don’t feel so strange anymore,having picked up on Adam Carolla’s“good times”. New research published today in the journal PLOS ONE indicates that the same sort of behavioral mimicry is responsible for social eating,at least among universityage women of normal weight.That’s right:the young women were more likely to adjust their eating according to the eating pace of their samesex dining companion.ay at least partly account for eating behavior is important,and has real effects on health.The researchers note that “as long as people don’t fully recognize such important influences on intake,it will be difficult to make healthy food choices and keep a healthy diet,especially when people are exposed to the eating behavior of others”. |
