Face blindness, a mystifying cnditin that can trick us int believing we recgnize peple we've never met r make us fail t recgnize thse we have, has been previusly estimated t affect between 2 and 2.5 percent f peple in the wrld.Nw, a new study by researchers at Harvard Medical Schl (HMS) and the VA Bstn Healthcare System is prviding fresh insights int the disrder, suggesting it may be mre cmmn than currently believed.
Published in February 2023 in Crtex, the study findings indicate that as many as ne in 33 peple may meet the criteria fr face blindness, r prspagnsia (面孔失认症)."This translates t mre than 10 millin Americans," the research team said.
The study fund similar face-matching perfrmance between peple diagnsed with prspagnsia using stricter vs lser criteria, suggesting that diagnstic criteria shuld be expanded t be mre inclusive. That culd lead t new diagnses amng millins wh may have the disrder but dn't realize it.
The study results are based n a web-based questinnaire and tests administered t 3,341 individuals.First, the researchers asked participants whether they experience difficulties recgnizing faces in their everyday lives.Then they administered tw bjective tests t determine whether they had difficulties learning new faces r recgnizing highly familiar famus faces.
The results shwed that 31 individuals ut f the 3,341 had majr prspagnsia, while 72 f the 3,341 had a milder frm. The researchers als bserved that there were n neatly divided separate grups f peple with pr r gd ability t recgnize faces. Rather, the ability t recgnize faces appeared t lie n a cntinuum (连续体).
Finally, the researchers cmpared face-matching scres amng peple with prspagnsia diagnsed using different criteria and fund that using stricter diagnstic cutffs did nt crrespnd with lwer face-matching scres.
In the new study, the researchers prvide diagnstic suggestins fr identifying mild and majr frms f prspagnsia based n guidelines fr majr and mild neurcgnitive disrders in the DSM5, the 5th editin f the Diagnstic and Statistical Manual f Mental Disrders.

Plastic, which is nw cmmn, cntains endcrine-disrupting chemicals, r EDCs (内分泌干扰物), that has been linked t increased risk f many chrnic diseases. Parental expsure t EDCs, fr example, has been shwn t cause metablic (新陈代谢的) disrders, including besity and diabetes, in the later generatins.
Led by Changcheng Zhu, a prfessr f bimedical sciences in the Schl f Medicine at the University f Califrnia, the researchers investigated the impact f fathers' expsure t a phthalate called dicyclhexyl phthalate, r DCHP (邻苯二甲酸二环己酯), n the metablic health f first generatin (F1) and secnd generatin (F2) in mice. Phthalates are chemicals used t make plastic mre durable.
The researchers fund that fathers' DCHP expsure fr fur weeks led t high insulin (胰岛素) resistance and impaired insulin signaling in F1. The same effect, but weaker, was seen in F2 .
"We fund fathers' expsure t EDCs may have intergeneratinal and transgeneratinal detrimental effects n the metablic health f their later generatins, "Zhu said. "T the best f ur knwledge, ur study is the first t demnstrate this."
In the case f fathers' expsure in the study, intergeneratinal effects are changes that ccur due t direct expsure t a stressr, such as expsure t DCHP f fathers (F0 generatin) and his F1 generatin. Transgeneratinal effects are changes passed dwn t later generatins that are nt directly expsed t the stressr (fr example, F2 generatin).
"This suggests that fathers' DCHP expsure can lead t sex-specific transgeneratinal effects n the metablic health f their later generatins," Zhu said.
Zhu stressed that the impact f expsure t DCHP n human health is nt well understd, even thugh DCHP is widely used in a variety f plastic prducts and has been detected in fd, water, and indr particulate matter.
"It's best t minimize ur use f plastic prducts," Zhu said. "This can als help reduce plastic pllutin, ne f ur mst pressing envirnmental issues."
12. Why are phthalates added t plastic? A . T beautify it. B . T make it lng-lasting. C . T reduce its cst. D . T increase its weight.
13. What des the underlined wrd "detrimental" in paragraph 4 prbably mean? A . Negative. B . External. C . Distinct. D . Adventurus.
14. What did Zhu advise peple t d? A . Bury plastic waste. B . Watch ut fr the fd they eat. C . Use fewest plastic prducts. D . Never prduce plastic prducts.
15. What can be a suitable title fr the text? A . Plastic cntains endcrine disrupting chemicals B . Plastic pllutin is a pressing envirnmental issue C . DCHP is widely used in a variety f plastic prducts D . Chemicals in plastic may impact tw generatins' health

A glden haze settled ver the crnfields. The sun prepared t rest fr the evening, and I intended t fllw. Saying gdbye t the clan (宗族) I was staying with, I headed back t camp. I lked frward t setting my camera aside fr an evening t reflect n my time in Ethipia.
It wasn't lng when I heard a vice behind me, "Pht, pht, pht." A yung Surma by abut eight years ld fllwed clsely at my heels. I breathed a tired sigh. I had n energy t press the shutter buttn ne mre time, n matter hw beautiful r eager he was.
Over the past fur days, many in the camp had wanted their phtgraph taken. I hped the by wuld find smene else t snap his phtgraph, but he kept fllwing me and saying, "Pht, pht, pht." He managed t catch my eye. With eyes wide full f hpe, he asked me again with anticipatin n his face.
As I lked at him, half interested, an idea fr a cmpsitin flashed in my mind.
I kneeled in the crnfield and instructed the by where t stand and hw t pse. As I prepared t take the phtgraph, his energy suddenly shifted frm eagerness t shyness t fear.
N matter what I tld him t d—hw t stand and hw t lk—I just culdn't get the sht. Frustrated, I gave up. I lked at the by, wh lked alne and awkward. He'd wanted his phtgraph taken, and nw he'd gne camera-shy.
In an effrt t cheer him, I clapped my hands, saying, "That was great. Yu were great." Others in his clan gathered arund, cheering and clapping ludly. The by's face immediately brke int a smile. I intuitively (凭直觉地) tk a few shts f the mment. That phtgraph turned ut t be better than I'd imagined.
