Dr. Aiken studied a number of couples who had been married for at least twenty-five years Each c
20、ouple provided four photographs-one photo of each partner at the time of their marriage and another photo of each partner twenty-five or more years later. All background was cut from the photos to remove any clues. The photos were then displayed in groups : a random grouping of the persons at the ti
21、me of their marriage and another random grouping of the same persons who took photographs later . Some testees were asked to pick out the partners . They failed totally with the first group . Their judgments were on better than chance . But with the photos taken twenty-five or more years after the m
22、arriage , the testees were quite successful in deciding who was married to whom . They were particularly successful with the most happily-married couples .Dr.Aiken believes there are several reasons why couples grow alike. One reason has something to do with imitation . One person tends to copy or d
23、o the same as someone else without knowing it . He says human begins to imitate the expressions of the faces of their loved ones . Another possible reason , he says , is the common experience of the couples . There is a tendency for people who have the same life experience to change their faces in s
24、imilar ways . For example , if a couple have suffered from a lot of sad experiences , their faces are likely to change in a similar way.21.

27、 strong D.Happily-married couples are often richer than others 25.

28、ca are:(1) The check is in the mail , (2) Of course Ill respect you in the morning, and (3) It was a computer error.Of these three little white lies ,the worst is the third . Its the only one that can never be true . Today , if a bank statement cheats you out of $900 that way ,you know what the cler
29、k is sure to say: It was a compute error . Nonsense. The computer is reporting nothing more than what the clerk typed into it .The most annoying case of all is when the computerized cashier in the grocery store shows that an item costs more than it actually does . If the innocent buyer points out th
30、e mistake , the checker , bagger, and manager all come together and offer the familiar explanation :It was a computer error.It wasnt, of course . That computerized cashier is really nothing more than an electric eye . The eye reads the Universal Product Code-that bar of black and white lines in a co

If the price they type in is too high , there are only two explanations: carele
