You tum around and, sure enough, someone was looking right at you!Parapsychologists(R y3)say that humans have a natural ability to sense when someone is looking at them. To research whether such a six sense really exists, Robert Baker, a psychologist(心理學(xué)家) at the University of Kentucky, did two experiments.In the first one, Baker sat behind unknowing people in public places and stared at the backs of their heads for 5 to 15 minutes. The subjects(受試者)were eating, drinking, reading, studying, watching TV, or working at a computer. Baker made sure that the people could not tell that he was sitting behind them during those periods. Later when he questioned the subjects, almost all them said they had no sense that someone was staring at them.For the second experiment, Baker told the subjects that they would be stared at from time to time from behind in a laboratory setting. The people had to write down when they felt they being stared at and when they werent. Baker found the subjects were no better at telling when they were stared at and when they werent.Baker concludes that people do not have the ability to sense when they are being stared at. If people doubt the outcome of his two experiments, said Baker, I suggest they repeat the experiments and see for themselves（1）Whats the aim of the two experiments for? A . Prove why humans have a sixth sense.B . Explain when people can have a sixth senseC . Show how people act while being watched in the labD . Study whether humans can sense when they are stared at（2）The underlined word outcome in the last paragraph most probably means? A . ValueB . ResultC . PerformanceD . Connection（3）What is the writers opinion about the the sixth sense? A . He is not sure about itB . He is sure that it doesnt exist(存在)C . He wants us to find out together with himD . He agrees with the parapsychologists（4）What can we learn from the passage? A . People are born with a sixth sense.B . the experiments support parapsychologists idea.C . the subjects do not have a sixth sense in the experiments.D . people have a sixth sense in all places.15. （10分）閱讀理解BraveType: 3D cartoon comedyRunning time: 95 minutesMerida, a princess, refused to marry a person that she dislikes.
