A closet （储藏室）is a years — long collection of exactly what makes you the person you are. The 16 rose in my chest when my mom recently decided to move 17 it meant we would have to 18 out Dad’s closet, nearly a decade after his death.

In the years after his death, I would sometimes walk into that closet. I had moved many miles away, starting a life elsewhere as my mom took pains to slowly 19 her home—sweeping away the dust of sadness, and making it once again a place for 20 and gathering.

In the closet, I could 21 the dad I had before he had a brain cancer. I 22 that would go away when my mom moved.

I rolled around 23 in bed. Could I stand to see this closet one last time before Mom moved? Would I find the 24 to help clear that stuff out?

Then, a 25 : “I had no idea,” my mom said. “I cleaned it out already?”

The announcement knocked me sideways. What had she thrown out? Would seeing this 26 closet to which I’d 27 attributed such meaning jolt （震动）my heart and cause me to have a meltdown?

Psycholinguistics is a field at the intersection （交叉）of psychology and linguistics, and one if its recent discoveries is that the languages we speak influence our eye movements. For example, English speakers who hear candle often look at a candy because the two words share their first syllable. Research with speakers of different languages revealed that bilingual speakers not only look at words that share sounds in one language but also at words that share sounds across their two languages. When Russian-English bilinguals hear the English word marker, they also look at a stamp, because the Russian word for stamp is marka.

Even more surprising, speakers of different languages differ in their patterns of eye movements when no language is used at all. In a simple visual search task in which people had to find a previously seen object among other objects, their eyes moved differently depending on what languages they knew. For example, when looking for a clock, English speakers also looked at a cloud. Spanish speakers, on the other hand, when looking for the same clock, looked at a present, because the Spanish names for clock and present—reloj and regalo-overlap at their onset （开始）.

The story doesn't end there. Not only do the words we hear activate other, similar-sounding words— and not only do we look at objects whose names share sounds or letters even when no language is heard—but the translations of those names in other languages become activated as well in speakers of more than one language. For example when Spanish-English bilinguals hear the word duck in English, they also look at a shovel, because the translations of duck and shovel—pato and pala, respectively—overlap in Spanish.

Because of the way our brain organizes and processes linguistic and nonlinguistic information, a single word can set off a domino effect （多米诺效应）that cascades （像洪水般倾泻）throughout the cognitive system. And this interactivity and co — activation is not limited to spoken languages. Bilinguals of spoken and signed languages show co — activation as well. For example, bilinguals who know American Sign Language and English look at cheese when they hear the English word paper because cheese and paper share three of the four sign components in ASL (hand shape, location and orientation but not motion).

What do findings like these tell us? Not only is the language system thoroughly interactive with a high degree of co — activation across words and concepts, but it also impacts our processing in other areas such as vision, attention and cognitive control. As we go about our everyday lives, how our eyes move, what we look at and what we pay attention to are influenced in direct and measurable ways by the languages we speak.

The implications of these findings for applied settings range from consumer behavior (what we look at in a store) to the military (visual search in complex scenes) and art (what our eyes are drawn to). In other words, it is safe to say that the language you speak influences how you see the world not only figuratively (比喻地)but also quite literally, down to the mechanics of your eye movements. 58. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?

A. Languages we know determine our eye movements. B. The words we hear remind us of similar words. C. We look at objects even if no language is heard.

D. Translations of words in other languages can be activated.

59. According to Paragraph 4, the “domino effect” is caused by _____ ___.

A. American Sign Language B. brain processes C. oral languages D. co-activation 60. What can we learn from these findings?

A. Words are closely related to concepts in language system.

B. The combination of words and concepts activates language system. C. The language we speak influences what we pay attention to. D. What we speak in everyday lives controls how our eyes move. 第四部分：任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题I分，满分10分）

The Age of Envy: How to Be Happy When Everyone Else's Life Looks Perfect

We live in the age of envy. Career envy, kitchen envy, children envy, food envy, upper ay envy, holiday envy. You name it, there's an envy for it. Human beings have always felt what Aristotle defined in the 4th century BC as pain at the sight of another's good fortune, stirred by the feeling of “those who have what we ought to have”.

But with social media, says Ethan Kross, professor of psychology at the University of Michigan, envy is being taken to an extreme.” We are constantly bombarded by ''photoshopped lives,” he says, “and that exerts a toll on us the likes of which we have never experienced in the history of our species?'

Clinical psychological Rachel Andrew says she is seeing more and more envy in her consulting room, from people who “can't achieve the lifestyle they want but which they see others have.” Our use of platforms including Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Snapchat, she says, amplifies （放大）this deeply disturbing psychological discord （失调）, “I think what social media has done is make everyone accessible for comparison,” she explains. “In the past, people might have just envied their neighbors, but now we can compare ourselves with everyone across the world.”

And those comparisons are now much less realistic. Andrew has observed among her patients that knowing they are looking at an edited version of reality is no defense against the emotional force of envy. “What I notice is that most of us can intellectualize what we see on social media platforms—we know that these images and narratives that are presented aren't real, we can talk about it and rationalize it—but on an emotional level, it's still pushing buttons. If those images or narratives tap into what we aspire to, but what we don't have, then it becomes very powerful.''

According to Dryden, a cognitive behavioral therapist, when it comes to the kind of envy inspired by social media, there are two factors that make a person more vulnerable （易受伤害的）：low self-esteem and deprivation intolerance, which describes the experience of being unable to bear not getting what you want. To overcome this, he says, think about what you would teach a child. The aim is to develop a philosophy, a way of being in the world, which allows you to recognize when someone else has something that you want but don't have, and also to recognize that you can survive without it, and that not having it does not make you less worthy or less of a person.

We could also try to change the way we habitually use social media. Kross explains that most the time, People use Facebook passively and just idly, lazily reading instead of posting, messaging or commenting. “That is interesting when you realize it is the passive usage that is supposed to be more harmful than the active. The links between passive usage and feeling worse are very robust—we have huge data sets involving tens of thousands of people, he says. While it is less clear how active usage affects well-being, there does seem to be a small positive link, he explains, between using Facebook to connect with others and feeling better.

Dryden differentiates between unhealthy envy and its healthy forms, which, he says, “can be creative” Just as hunger tells us we need to eat, the feeling of envy, if we can listen to it in the right way, could show us what is missing from our lives that really matters to us, Kross explains. Andrew says, “It is about naming it as an emotion, knowing how it feels, and then not interpreting it as a positive or a negative, but trying to understand what it is telling you that you want. If that is achievable, you could take proper steps towards achieving it. But at the same time, ask yourself, what would be good enough?” The Age of Envy： How to Be Happy When Everyone Else's Life Looks Perfect ● (1) ▲ is the feeling that you wish you had something that someone else has.
