(40 points)Text 1 Have you ever heard someone say “You totally look like youre a Jessica” or something similar? People seem to think that they know what kind of person a “Jessica” or a “Michael” looks like. Why is this?According to a study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, humans tend to associate peoples names with their appearances, and can even guess someones name based on how they look.Researchers at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Israel, collected thousands of photos of peoples faces. They labeled (贴标签于) each photo with four names. Then, they asked volunteers to guess which of the four names was correct.The volunteers were able to guess the right name 38% of the time. It seems that certain characteristics of faces give them clues about someones name, Readers Digest reported.However, this only worked when the volunteers looked at names from their own culture. In addition, the volunteers were not as good at guessing the real names of people who used nicknames(昵称) more often than their real names. This may show that a persons appearance is affected by their name only if they use it often.“This kind of face-name matching happens because of a process of self-fulfilling prophecy(预言), as we become what other people expect us to become,” Ruth Mayo from tile university told science news website EurekAlert.Earlier studies have shown that gender(性别) and race stereotypes(刻板印象) can affect a persons appearance. The researchers believe there are also similar stereotypes about names. For example, people tend to think that men named Bob should have rounder faces because the word itself looks round. People may think that women named Rose are beautiful. They expect them to be “delicate” and “female”, just like the flower they are named for.1、How is this article developed?ABy giving examples.BBy asking questions.CBy doing an experiment.DBy comparing different cases.2、What can be inferred from the study?AVolunteers found it much easier to guess nicknames.BNames have different associations in different cultures.CVolunteers could guess the cha
