14、er what goes through your mind after youve taken your seat on an airplane. Youve not seen the captain # but his or her voice comes over the air. & Hello # this is your captain speaking. Are you about to fly the friendly skies? What you probably don realize is that you do make quick judgments(步断)base
15、d on very few factors the moment you hear “hello”.Experts have discovered that “hello” carries enough information for listeners to draw judgments about the speakers personality, such as how reliable (可信赖的)he or she is. They recorded 64 students reading a telephone conversation. The word “hello” was
16、then picked from each recording, and 320 different students listened to that word through a computer. The students were asked to score the voices according to personality, including attractiveness and warmth, giving them points from l to 10. Although every voice was played in one third a second, the
17、 students formed an opinion quickly.It is amazing that from such short voices of speech they can get such an obvious impression of a person. And whether it is correct, their impressions are mostly the same as what the other listeners get. The research also suggests that people impressions are based
18、on the tone(语调)of voice. Men and women who present the strength of their voices are regarded as more reliable.The speed with which the students made their judgments makes much sense.

22、alence of melanoma(黑素瘤) has been rapidly rising around the world for nearly a century. While some of the increase may be due to better detection, researchers also believe its because were spending more time outdoors in the sun, vacationing to warmer climates during the winter and using tanning beds.
23、 That rise is concerning, since melanoma is the most dangerous kind of skin cancer. Most of us know to cover up and apply sunscreen on hot, sunny days, but when fall arrives, we tend to drop those habits. Experts warn thats a mistake. Though theres less need for sun protection after summer ends, exp
24、osure to UV rays still adds up. What precautions you should take to defend against melanoma during the cooler months depends on where you are in the world. Thats because the further away you are from the equator, the more UV rays weaken in the winter. In southern England or Canada, the daily dose of
25、 UVA on a clear summer day is 6.5 times higher than on a clear winter day, says Professor Brian Diffey of the British Association of Dermatologists.

Its important to wear sun-screen when there is a lot of glare from the snow, says Victoria Mar, director of the Victorian Melanoma Service at Alfred Hospital in Melbourne, Australia. Finally, you should monitor your mol
27、es(痣). Early detection of melanoma is vital for successful treatment, says Diffey. If its caught before it spreads to other parts of the body, the patient will have 99 % of chance to survive for five years. If its caught late, that can drop to 25%. Warning signs are a mole thats changing size, shape
