Cynthia Bennett and Andre Sibilsky, a new couple, wanted a high energy dog that they could take on long hikes and camping explorations from Colorado to California. With his pla
9、yful air of confidence and active nature, Henry fit right in. The first time the couple took him hiking, he jumped up onto the large rocks like a moun-tain goat. His favorite activities are hiking outdoors and exploring mountains. But hes a big softy with severe separation anxiety, so eventually, th
10、e couple searched for a calm yet adven-turous cat that could keep Henry company-and keep up with him on the paths.Rescued from a cat shelter after his mother abandoned him, the lovable and dependent cat, Baloo, bonded to Henry within hours. And Henry discovered that Baloo loved to explore as much as
11、 he did. Cynthia had already planned a camping trip with Henry to Telluride, Colo-rado, and took Baloo along. That, as they say, was the beginning of a beautiful animal friendship.One day on the halfway Baloo was tired, and Cynthia took it into her head to place Baloo on Henrys neck. “Baloo just hun

Approximately three minutes after landing, howe
17、ver, the rocket exploded at its landing place. It was unclear what caused the rocket to explode.“Weve had a successful soft touch down on the landing site,” SpaceX engineer John Ins-prucker said. “Thats a beautiful test flight of Starship 10.” He added that SpaceX has several other rockets already i
18、n production and the next, SN11, will be ready to roll out for another test flight in the near future. The primary goal of the test was to gather data on how the vehicles flaps (襟翼) would control the Starship rocket as it falls back to the Earth.Musk, the CEO of SpaceX, first explained Starships int
19、ended landing method during a September 2019 media event. He billed it as a unique way that would make the rocket dive back through the air with its belly pointed toward the Earth as its four flaps switch slightly to keep it steady. Its a method that Musk said is intended to learn how a skydiver wou

25、heir an-swers are supposed to be less sincere and believable than if they had replied immediately. And the longer the hesitation lasts, the less sincere the response appears.Researchers conducted a series of experiments involving more than 7, 500 individuals. Participants either listened to an audio
26、 record, viewed a video or read an account of a person responding to a simple question. In each case, the response time varied from immediate to a 10-second delay. Participants then rated the sincerity of the response on a sliding scale. Across all 14 experiments, participants consistently rated del
27、ayed responses as less sincere re-gardless of the question.The findings have wide connotations. Whenever people are interacting, they are judging each others sincerity. These results can be applied to a wide range of interactions, going from workplace chats to couples and friends arguing. Further, i
28、n job interviews and in court hear-ings and trials, people are often tasked with judgments of sincerity. Here, too, response speed could play a part. In general, whenever there is a response that requires an answer, such as in a job interview, delayed responses can be thought as less sincere.It woul
29、d be unfair for the responder, such as a crime suspect, if the response delay was sorted by mistake into thought control or answer making up when it was in fact caused by a different factor, such as simply being distracted or thoughtful. The experiment also found that definitely instructing particip
30、ants to ignore delayed response reduced, but did not com-pletely remove, the effect of delayed response on judgment of sincerity or guilt. Nevertheless, on the whole, a fast response seems to be regarded as more sincere, while a response that is delayed for even a couple of seconds may be considered
31、 a slow lie.12What does the reliability of answers lie on according to the study?AThe response time.BThe answer content.CThe tone of speakers.DThe difficulty of questions.13What does the underlined word “connotations” in paragraph 3 probably mean?AChoices.BResponsibilities.CMeanings.DPossibilities.1
32、4What effects does the study result have on our life?AIt is a test to judge honesty.BIt can prevent a lot of crimes.CIt improves skills in asking questions.DIt promotes the harmony between people.15What can we infer from the last paragraph?ADelayed answers are lies.BIt is unfair to require all to an

The nutrients in mushrooms are certainly of value, and the health benefits may surprise you.They are one of the few plant sources of vitamin DVitamin D comes from sunshine and animals.
