Question

It’s natural to greet friends with a smile and a wave. ___【小題1】____ But what happens if your face and body send mixed messages? Would someone be more likely to believe the look on your face or the way you hold your body?
Scientists have recently tackled these questions. They found that when a person is looking at your face, she might not believe what she sees of your body language doesn’t match the feeling that your face shows. ___【小題2】____ Previously, they had found that the tone of a person’s voice can be more important than the words that are spoken. For example, most people tend not to believe a person who says in a flat voice, “I’m so excited.”
When it came to emotions conveyed by facial expressions and body language, most scientists suspected that the face was more important. To test if this was true, psychologists from the Netherlands and Boston showed people a number of pictures of isolated(孤立的） faces and isolated bodies(with faces blurred out （模糊的))that showed anger or fear. 【小題3】____
An angry face had low eyebrows and tight lips. A scared face had high eyebrow and a slightly open mouth. 【小題4】___ A scared body had arms forward and shoulders square, as if ready to defend.
These results told the researchers that mixed signals can confuse people. Even when people pay attention to the face, body language subtly(微妙地） influences which emotion they read.
___ 【小題5】____And if you want to be understood, it helps to avoid sending mixed messages.

A．Scientists feel new to study the mixed message that confuses people.

B．When you do this, your face and body work together to show your friends that you’re happy to see them.

C． Studying such mixed messages is nothing new for scientists.．

D．They also showed pictures in which angry or scared faces were paired with angry or scared bodies
