If you studied pictures that ancient people left on rock walls and you tried to determine their meaning, you would not detect a deep interest in romance among the artists. , you would see plenty of animals with people running after them. Life for ancient people seemed to center on hunting and gathering wild foods for meals.
First Impression
To help determine the of attraction, researchers paired 164 college classmates and had them talk for 3, 6 or 10 minutes so they could get a sense of each other’s individuality. Then students were asked to what kind of relationship they were likely to build with their partners. After nine weeks, they reported what happened.
As it turned out, their judgments often held true. Students seemed to at an early stage who would best fit into their lives.
The Knows
Scientists have also turned to nonhumans to increase understanding of attraction. Many animals give off pheromones—natural chemicals that can be detected by, and then can produce a response in, other animals of the same species. Pheromones can signal that an animal is either ready to fight or is feeling to partnerships. In contrast, humans do not seem to be as as other animals at detecting such chemicals. Smell, however, does seem to play a part in human attraction. Although we may not be aware of chemicals like pheromones consciously, we give and receive loads of information through smell in every interaction with other people. Face Value
When shown an attractive face and then words with good or bad associations, people responded to words faster after viewing an attractive face. Seeing something attractive seems to cause happy thinking.
51. A. Instead
52. A. romantic
53. A. priority
54. A. tested B. Therefore B. stressful B. proof B. imposed

Hand D. superior D. gifted D. signals D. assess C. possibility C. changed 55. A. appearances 56. A. illustrations 57. A. predict 58. A. critical 59. A. memorize 60. A. Nose 61. A. open C. similarities C. ingredients C. diagnose C. random B. implications B. investigate B. initial B. distinguish B. Eye B. alert B. amazed C. negotiate C. Heart C. resistant 62. A. disappointed 63. A. emotions 64. A. enhance C. confused C. individuality C. maintain

Section B
Directions: In section B, you will hear two short passages, and you will be asked three ques-tions on each of the passages. The passages will be read twice, but the questions will be spo-ken only once. When you hear a question, read the four possible answers on your paper, and decide which one would be the best answer to the question you have heard.
Questions 11 through 13 are based on the following passage.
while people drink coffee and eat sandwiches. You can play with all the dogs at the Ball House. Lori Chon goes to the Ball House about once a week. She likes to play with Princess, her favorite dog. She often buys food for Princess, too. Lori likes to go to the Snoopy Café for many reasons. “I love dogs” she says, “but my apartment is too small for a dog. Also, dogs don’t like to be alone, and I work all day”. So when Lori needs to have some fun with the pet, she goes to the dog café to see Princess. Dog cafes are very popular in Korea, but they are not cheap. A cup of coffee costs about three dollars and fifty cents, but the fun is free.
Questions.
11. How is the Ball House different from the Snoopy Café?
12. Why does Lori like going to the Snoopy Café?
13. What is the passage mainly about?
Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.
We are hearing a lot these days about downshifting, so what is it? The term downshifting first ap-peared in 1994. It was coined by the Trans-research Institute to describe a new philosophy by which higher achievers at work chose a lower salary in exchange for a better quality of life. Ac-cording to a recent study, 4 out
of 10 people under 35 years old are planning to downshift from stressful jobs to a slower pace of life. It is not just the dream of the young, It is also popular with 35 to 54-year old, 12% of whom are making plans to downshift, 16% hoping to down so in next 2 years.
The study found that, 7% of workers had already downshifted. Doctor Lucy Grand, a psychologist looking at the phenomenon, believes that the downshifting is a dream that more and more people want to turn into a reality. People are not satisfied with their lives, and they want to make changes. However Doctor Grand adds, that some people will hesitate, because they don’t actually believe they can make it happen, while others will rush into downshifting to discover that their dream ends up with the financial crisis. So it’s something that requires a lot of thought and planning to get right.
Questions.
14. According to the passage, what is downshifting?
15. According to a recent study, what is the percentage of workers who have already downshifted?
16. In Lucy Grand’s opinion, why does downshifting require a lot of thought and planning?
