We tend to believe that older people are more positive and younger people are more sensitive to social cues（暗示）.Recently scientists investigated this idea by testing 10000 men and women. They wanted to see if age affected a persons ability to identify subtle facial emotions, such as fear and anger.The researchers used a Web-based platform to collect data. It showed the participants two headshots of random people. They were then asked to identify which subject was angrier, happier, or more fearful. The research found that younger people were able to better identify angry and fearful facial cues than older people.“We know from studies that the everyday experiences of an adolescent are different from an older person, but we wanted to understand how these experiences might be linked with differences in basic emotion understanding,” wrote Laura Germine, the studys senior author.But what is it that makes young people more sensitive?“This is the exact age when young people are most sensitive to forms of negative social cues, such as bullying（欺凌）,” Lauren Rutter, the studys lead author, told Science Daily. “The normal development of anger sensitivity can contribute to some of the challenges that arise during this stage of development.”On the contrary, across the whole 10,000-person survey, researchers found no decrease in the sense of happiness among older participants and these findings fit well with other researches, showing that older adults tend to have more positive emotions.Now, the team is working toward a new study that examines how emotional sensitivity is related to different aspects of mental health, such as anxiety and depression.8. What can we know from the passage?A. Older people are more allergic to social cues.B. The researchers gained data from the Internet.C. Older people are less likely to identify happiness in the research.D. Adolescents sensitivity to negative social cues does harm to their development.9. How was the research carried out?A. By assuming and analyzing.B. By questioning and tracing.C. By reasoning and concluding.D. By surveying and collecting statistics.10. What section of a newspaper is the passage probably taken from?A. Technology.B. Investigations.C. Education.D. Lifestyle.11. What is the team planning to find out next?A. The relationship between emotions and experiences.B. The emotional differences between the young and the old.C. The connection between sensitivity of emotions and mental health.D. The different responses to social cues between the young and the old.参考答案：8. B 9. D 10. B 11.
