【解析】【分析】本文主要提供了几条假期国外旅行时的安全建议。

(1)第一题属于第一条建议的主旨句，应该是祈使句。此外根据第二段的具体内容take only carry-on carriage—besides avoiding baggage fees—is that the less you have to carry around, the more quickly you can move, if necessary.可知，此段主要讲述出行时尽量少带行李，故答案为A。

(2)此段主要讲述外出时要少带行李。E项“另外，拖着一大堆行李彻底泄露了你不是本地居民”符合本段内容，也承接上一句内容。故答案为E。

(3)此段主要陈述要把不随身携带的东西上锁。前句建议随身带一把锁，所以后句讲打电话确认宾馆是否提供锁，尤其是你的行李为布包时。故答案为F。

(4)前句建议把护照留在宾馆。后句讲到一旦丢失后可能遇到的麻烦，所以此处应该是假设包被偷后的情景。故答案为C。

(5)前句说要相信自己的感觉。所以下句表达如果你感到不安全，很可能就是那样。故答案为G。

Why the youth sense anger in faces

We tend to believe that older people are more positive and younger people are more sensitive to social cues (暗示).

Recently scientists investigated this idea by testing 10,000 men and women. They wanted to see if age affected a person's ability to identify facial emotions, such as fear and anger.

The researchers from McLean Hospital in the US used a Web-based platform to collect happiness data. It showed the participants two headshots (头部特写)of random people. They were then asked to identify which subject was angrier, happier, or more fearful.

The research found that younger people were able to better identify angry and fearful facial cues than older people.

"From studies and anecdotal evidence, we know that the everyday experiences of an adolescent are different from an older person, but we wanted to understand how these experiences might be linked with differences in basic emotion understanding,wrote Laura Germine, the study's senior author.

But what is it that makes young people more sensitive?

"This is the exact age when young people are most sensitive to forms of negative social cues, such as bullying," Lauren Rutter, the study's lead author, told Science Daily. "The normal development of anger sensitivity can contribute to some of the challenges that arise during this phase of development.

On the contrary across the whole 10,000-person survey, researchers found no decline in the perception (感知)of happiness among older participants.

"What's remarkable is that we see declines in many visual perceptual abilities as we get older, but here we did not see such declines in the perception of happiness, Germine told Neuro Science News.

She added that these findings fit well with other researches, showing that older adults tend to have more positive emotions and a positive outlook.

Following the paper's release, Rutter told Neuro Science News that gathering their primary research online allowed the team to research into a "much larger and more diverse sample set" than previous studies.
