27、mon type drunk in the UK. Black tea is dark in colour, because the leaves have been allowed to oxidize (氧化) before drying.

Growing evidence shows that an instinct for facial mimicry (模仿) allows us to empathize with and even experience other peoples feelings. If
34、 we cant mirror another persons face, it limits our ability to read and properly react to their expressions. A review of this emotional mirroring appears on February 11 in Trends in Cognitive Sciences.In their paper, Paula Niedenthal and Adrienne Wood, social psychologists at the University of Wisco
35、nsin, describe how people in social situations copy others facial expressions to create emotional responses in themselves. For example, if youre with a friend who looks sad, you might “try on” that sad face yourself without realizing youre doing so. In “trying on” your friends expression, it helps y
36、ou to recognize what theyre feeling by associating it with times in the past when you made that expression. Humans get this emotional meaning from facial expressions in a matter of only a few hundred milliseconds.“You reflect on your emotional feelings and then you generate some sort of recognition
37、judgment, and the most important thing that results in is that you take the appropriate action you approach the person or you avoid the person,” Niedenthal says. “Your own emotional reaction to the face changes your perception of how you see the face in such a way that provides you with more informa
38、tion about what it means.”A persons ability to recognize and “share” others emotions can be prevented when they cant mimic faces. This is a common complaint for people with motor diseases, like facial paralysis from a stroke, or even due to nerve damage from plastic surgery. Niedenthal notes that th
39、e same would not be true for people who suffer from paralysis from birth, because if youve never had the ability to mimic facial expressions, you will have developed compensatory ways of interpreting emotions.People with social disorders associated with mimicry or emotion-recognition damage, like au
40、tism (自闭症), can experience similar challenges. “There are some symptoms in autism where lack of facial mimicry may in part be due to limitation of eye contact,” Niedenthal says.Niedenthal next wants to explore what part in the brain is functioning to help with facial expression recognition. A better
41、 understanding of that part, she says, will give us a better idea of how to treat related disorders. 32.According to the passage, facial mimicry helps _.A. experience ones own feelings clearly B. change others emotions quicklyC. respond to others expressions properlyD. develop friendship with others

45、 a Lasting Social RelationshipWe all know that friends are special people who we share our lives with, and who share their lives with us in return. 36 According to research recently published in the Journal of Social and Personal Relationships, the key is to use “we-talk”.Led by University of Califo
46、rnia psychologist Megan Robins and her colleagues, the researchers reviewed and analyzed 30 different studies involving over 5,000 participants. 37 The word “we” moves people from an individual position into a partnership, which makes us more interdependent. “ 38 Word use is a window into what peopl
47、e are thinking and feeling without asking them,” Robbins told Science Daily. 39 The primary point is that interdependence may bring about supportive and relationship-centered behaviors and positive perceptions of the partner especially important in times of stress and disagreement.Contrary to “we-talk”, there is “I-talk”, which refers to the frequent use of the first-person singular pronouns, such as “I”, “me” and “mine”, when writing or speaking. Earlier this year, researcher analyzed a set
