How many times have you seen someone on TV or in a crowd and had
that nagging feeling that you ’ve seen them somewhere before but can quite place them? This seems to be quite a(n) __75__ experience and it raises questions about exactly how we recognize faces. What
’s going on in our brains when we see a face?
Scientists have recently carried out tests on volunteers to find out which areas in the brain are involved in face recognition. The tests must have been a lot of fun to take part in! The volunteers were __76__ a photograph of a famous person on a computer and then the face gradually changed into another famous person ’Fso .r example a picture of the 1950s film star Marilyn Monroe __77__ changed into a picture of the British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher! Obviously, Marilyn ’s beautiful curly blonde hair became greyer, her nose became shrpaer and longer, and her face developed wrinkles and lines around the mouth. As they watched the person change, complicated equipment scanned the volunteers ’ brains to see which parts of the brain were lighting
up.
The __78__ showed that we use three main areas of the brain to identify people ’fasces. While one section of the brain looks at the physical features such as size and shape of eyes, another part identifies the face as known or unknown. __79__, a third part of the brain is checking out the name or other information about the face in our memory. It sounds __80__ but it seems that human beings can store as many as 10,000 faces in their memories and most of us can recognize about ninety per cent of our classmates up to thirty five years after we last saw them! 75. A. bad B. common C. unusual D. exciting 76. A. shown B. taken C. printed D. exchanged 77. A. immediately B. finally C. slowly D. suddenly 78. A. survey B. situation C. changes D. results 79. A. What ’s more B. For the time being
C. As a result
D. At the same
time 80. A. silly
B. amazing
C. serious
D. familiar
C. Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words
