Pincchi may be just a children’s fairy tale, but Spanish scientists at the University f Granada recently investigated this s-called “Pincchi effect” and fund that ur nses dn’t grw when we tell a lie, but actually shrink a bit.
Dr. Gómez Milán and his team develped a lie detectr test that used thermgraphy (体温计) t tell if peple were lying and fund that whenever participants in their research were being untruthful the temperature f the tip f their nse drpped up t 1.2℃, while the temperature f their frehead increased up t 1.5℃. Scientist als fund that drp in temperature at nse level actually caused it t slightly shrink, althugh the difference is undetected by the human eye.
“One has t think in rder t lie, which rises the temperature f the frehead,” Dr. Gómez Milán explained the findings. “At the same time, we feel anxius, which lwers the temperature f the nse.” Fr this study, researchers asked a number f 60 students t perfrm varius tasks while their temperature is scanned by technlgy. One f these tasks required making a 3 t 4 minutes call t their parents r a friend and telling a significant lie. Participants had t make up the lie themselves during the call. Interestingly, this lie detectr picked up the temperature difference in 80 percent f the test subjects, which is a better rate f success than that f any mdern lie detectr.
“With this methd we have achieved t increase accuracy”, said Dr. Gómez Milán, wh added that law enfrcement interviewers culd ne day cmbine ther lie detectin technlgy with thermal imaging t achieve better results.
19. Why des the writer talk abut Pincchi in the first paragraph?
A. T tell a fairy tale.
B. T give an example.
C. T talk abut a scientist.
D. T intrduce the tpic.
20. What is “Pincchi effect”?
A. Our nses will grw when we tell a lie.
B. Our nses will shrink when we tell a lie.
C. The temperature f the frehead falls if we lie.
D The temperature f the student rises fr anxiety.
21. Hw did Dr. Gómez Milán feel abut the lie detectr?
A. Dubtful.B. Surprised.
C. Cnfident.D. Puzzled.
22. What lessn can we learn frm the text?
A. A lie will travel very hard.
B. Many ways t bring a liar t light.

Scientist， cnservatin rganizatins and gvernment trying t stp the trend f extinctin （灭绝） ften fcus n prtected areas such as natinal parks and wildlife preserves. But with as many as millin species（物种） at risk， this plan f actin may nt be enugh t cnserve wildlife.
Slwing the mass extinctin that nw appears t be underway will require mre creative means f cexisting alngside wild plants and animals. A new study indicates the effectiveness f sme such appraches by examining sme lands managed by indigenus grups.
“ We shw really strngly that， frm a bidiversity standpint in terms f species richness，indigenus － managed lands are at least cmparable t prtected areas， ” says bilgist Richard Schuster f Carletn University. And in sme places， they are better than parks and preserves －even thugh indigenus cmmunities may use their lands’ resurces by hunting r searching fr fd.
Schuster and his team analyzed mre than 15，000 areas in Australia， Brazil and Canada. They fund that the ttal diversity f wildlife was highest n lands either managed r c － managed by indigenus grups， while randmly selected areas with n frmal prtectin were the least bi－diverse. Fr threatened species in particular， indigenus lands scred slightly higher than prtected lands n verall species richness in Brazil and Canada， as well as higher fr threatened animals in Australia.
Each cuntry has a different gegraphy， climate and histry. Yet remarkably， Schuster says， the best indicatr fr species diversity is whether a given area was managed by an indigenus cmmunity. He pinted ut that practices such as sustainable（可持续的） hunting， fishing and searching， as well as burning， are mre likely t ccur in such areas. Dn Hankins， an eclgist at Califrnia State University，agrees. “ there’ s prbably ging t be mre f a cnnectin t the land， ” he says， “ and a use f the land fr the things that are there， cmpared t a natinal park. ”
“ It’ s really imprtant t listen t the peple wh live n the land and have them drive the stewardship effrts ging frward， ” Schuster says， adding that partnering with indigenus cmmunities may enable the wrld’ s cuntries t better meet a wide range f cnservatin gals： “ We really need all the help we can get as a glbal cmmunity t prevent species extinctin that we’ re facing right nw. ”
23. What des the underlined wrd “ indigenus” prbably mean in Paragraph 2？
A. Scial.B. Native.
C. Prtected.D. Threatened.
24. What did Richard Schuster find in his study？
A. Natinal parks are even higher in species diversity.
B. Indigenus cmmunities verhunted n their lands.
C. Sme preserves almst have n frmal prtectin.
D. Indigenus lands d better in keeping bi－diversity.
25. Which f the fllwing statements may Dn Hankins agree with？
A. Species diversity depends n gegraphical psitins.
B. Humans’ everyday activities are n lnger sustainable.
C. Indigenus grups have a clse bnd with their lands.
D. Prtected areas wrk perfectly in wildlife prtectin.
26. What is the text mainly abut？
A. Beating back extinctin.B. Dealing with envirnmental prblems.
C. Setting up nature reserves.D. Fighting against unsustainable behavirs.
