【題目】Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland(《愛麗絲漫游奇境記》,1865), written by British writer Lewis Carroll, is a fairy tale about the imaginary world of Alice. The girl falls into a rabbit hole by accident and ends up in a fantasy world filled with strange creatures. She meets an evil queen and ends up bravely fighting against her. During her struggle, Alice wakes up and r1 it was all just a dream. The passages b2 describes the first scene of the story. Let’s see how Alice falls into the rabbit hole.

She often saw rabbits in the garden, but this rabbit was different. He had large, pink ears, like most rabbits, but unlike most rabbits, he was wearing a blue coat and had a watch in his hand. He was looking at his watch and saying, "Oh, dear! Oh, dear! I shall be too late!"

"I’ll catch him at the fence," thought Alice.

But, when the rabbit came to the fence, he went down a rabbit hole.

Alice followed him. She was inside a dark hole and she was falling. E3 the hole was very deep or she was falling very slowly. She saw lots of things on her way down. There were cupboards on the sides of the hole, and maps and pictures. She fell and fell such a long way! She began to think she was going to fall all the way to Australia! But, after a very long time, her fall s4 came to an end.

Alice found herself s5 on dry leaves and she wasn’t hurt at all. She stood up quickly. She could see the white rabbit in the d6. He was still hurrying and looking at his watch.

"I mustn’t lost him now," thought Alice. She ran after him. As he turned a corner, she heard him say, "Oh, dear! Oh, dear! I’m so late!"

Alice was close behind him, but when she turned the corner, the white rabbit was not there anymore. Alice looked around. She was in a long, dark, empty hall, but some lamps on the ceiling(天花板)gave it light. There were doors all around the hall. Did the rabbit go out of one of the doors?

She walked right around and tried to open each door, but she couldn’t. There weren’t any k7.

【題目】Can you remember a face quickly and never forget it? If so, then you could be a super recognizer.

Usually it is easy for someone to recognize the faces of their family members and friends. But it could be difficult for them to remember faces that they have only seen once. However, studies have found that super recognizers have amazing face recognition skills. They can remember at least 80 per cent of faces they have ever seen. According to the Daily Mail, at least one in 50 people are super recognizers.

A study was carried out in Bournemouth University of UK recently. Researchers tried to find whether super recognizers have a different way to remember faces. They found that when these people look at faces, they spend more time looking at the person's nose. They also found that these people are not smarter than others. Their super ability is restricted(有限的) only to face recognition.

Another important finding is that there are two subtypes(子類型) of super recognition. Some never forget faces. But for some, if you show pairs of faces to them at the same time, they can quickly decide whether the faces are of the same person or two different people. In fact, many super recognizers say they are very good at recognizing faces in a crowd.

These subtypes of super recognition could be applied to many areas of life. For example, the skills could be very useful at a passport control checkpoint. Super recognizers could also help police find known troublemakers and even missing people in the crowd.
