The faces of elderly, happily-married people sometimes resemble each other. Dr. Aiken studied a number of couples who had been married for at least twenty-five years. Each couple provided four photographs—one photo of each partner at the time of their marriage and another photo of each partner twenty-five or more years later. The background was cut from the photos to remove any clues. The photos were then displayed in groups: a random grouping of the persons at the time of their marriage and another random grouping of the same persons who took photographs later. Some testees were asked to pick out the partners. They failed totally with the first group.
Their judgements were no better than chance.
But with the photos taken twenty-five or more years after the marriage,
the testees were quite successful with the most happily-married couples.
Dr. Aiken believes there are several reasons why couples grow alike. One reason has something to do with imitation. One person tends to copy or do the same as someone else without knowing it. He says humans begin to
imitate
the expressions of the faces of their loved ones. "Another possible reason," he says, "is the common experience of the couples. " There is a tendency for people who have the same life experience to change their faces in similar ways. For example, if a couple have suffered from a lot of sad experiences, their faces are likely to change in a similar way.
The underlined word "imitate" (Para. 2) has a similar meaning to______.
选项
A、copy
B、change
C、know
D、suffer
答案
A
解析
根据第二段第三句“One person tends to copy or do the same as someone else without knowing it.”可知,imitate与copy,do the same意思相近,意为“模仿”。故选A。
