Since the concept of a teddy bear is very obviously not a genetically inherited trait, we can be confident that we are looking at a cultural trait. However, it is a cultural trait that seems to be under the guidance of another, genuinely biological trait: the cues that attract us to babies (high foreheads and small faces). ① Cute, baby-like features are inherently appealing, producing an urturing response in most humans. ② Teddy bears thathad a more baby-like appearance—however slight this may have been initially—were thus more popular with customers. ③ Teddy bear manufacturers obviously noticed which bears were selling best and so made more of these and fewer of the less popular models, to maximize their profits. ④ As a result, using animal images for commercial purposes was faced with severe criticism from animal rights activists. ⑤ In this way, the selection pressure built up by the customers resulted inthe evolution of a more baby-like bear by the manufacturers.

Roles are like a fence. They allow us a certain amount of freedom, but for most of us that freedom doesn’t go very far. Suppose that a woman decides that she is not going to wear dresses—or a man that he will not wear suits and ties—regardless of what anyone says. ① In most situations, they’ll stick to their decision. ② When a formal occasion comes along, however, such as a family wedding or a funeral, they are likely to cave into norms that they find overwhelming. ③ The increasing social pressure discourages us from fulfilling the social norms and committing ourselves to shared social conventions of behaviour. ④ Almost all of us follow the guidelines for what is “appropriate” for our roles. ⑤ Few of us are bothered by such restrictions, for our socialization is so thorough that we usually want to do what our roles indicate is appropriate.

Scientific experiments should be designed to show that your hypothesis is wrong and should be conducted completely objectively with no possible subjective influence on the outcome. ① Unfortunately few, if any, scientists are truly objective as they have often decided long before the experiment is begun what they would like the result to be. ② This means that very often bias is (unintentionally) introduced into the experiment, the experimental procedure or the interpretation of results. ③ It is all too easy to justify to yourself why an experiment which does not fit with your expectations should be ignored, and why one which provides the results you ‘hoped for’ is the right one. ④ It is important to draw a meaningful result from the experiment on peer group activities. ⑤ This can be partly avoided by conducting experiments ‘blinded’ and by asking others to check your data or repeat experiments.

Some researchers investigated the effects of different media on children’s ability to produce imaginative responses. In one study, children in grades one through four were separated randomly into two groups and presented with the same fictional story. One group listened to the story via radio, while the other group watched the story on a television. ① Afterward, all of the children were asked what they thought would happen next in the story. ② The researchers rated children’s imaginativeness by recording the novel elements (such as characters, setting, dialogue, and feelings) they used in their responses. ③ Some novelists prefer to include as many characters as possible in their stories. ④ The children who listened to the radio produced more imaginative responses, whereas the children who watched the television produced more words that repeated the original story. ⑤ Media scholars have used this study to illustrate the “visualization hypothesis,” which states that children’s exposure to ready-made visual images restricts their ability to generate novel images of their own.

Music can convey the scope of a film, effectively communicating whether the motion picture is an epic drama or a story that exists on a more personal scale. Music can convey the quality and size of a space. ① For example, in Alien and Olivier’s Hamlet, the music serves at times to make small and/or artificial spaces seem more grand and to enhance the sense of realism. ② In addition, music can establish a narrative’s placement in time. ③ Music for motion pictures often serves to authenticate the era or to provide a sense of nostalgia. ④ Music has traditionally been classified by musical instruments. ⑤ Examples of the former would include Amadeus and Immortal Beloved, while a sense of nostalgia is communicated through the music selected for films such as American Graffiti and The Big Chill.

Like any other organ or system in the body, bone becomes stronger when it is stressed regularly, and it becomes weak when it is not used enough. ① In this case, “stressed” means loaded through impact and tension, as occurs during running. ② For the best explanation of bones becoming weak, take a look at astronauts. ③ Their bones are unloaded and not used much during lengthy stays in the zero-gravity environment of space. ④ As people age, the body starts to reabsorb calcium from the bones, leading to loss of bone mass. ⑤ When they arrive back on Earth, their bones are often so weak that they can barely support the astronaut’s body weight.

People believe that “good books” are educational and useful to academic success. However, it appears that the nature of written language itself helps increase academic achievement, regardless of a book’s quality. ① Even books that provide only pleasure will increase the confidence of students and encourage them to try to read more technical materials in school. ② Comics, magazines, audio books, and topics of interest on the Internet are sometimes not considered “real” reading materials. ③ Students should try to guess the meaning of new words while they read rather than look them up in the dictionary. ④ However, these materials let students enjoy the pleasure of reading and gain information, literacy skills, and more. ⑤ This “light” reading is actually very beneficial because it is effortless reading, which improves reading fluency.

Colored flags are used to give important signals to drivers during auto races. ① The green flag means“start” or “continue,” and the yellow flag tells drivers to slow down and hold position. ② The red flag is a signal to stop, and when drivers see the black flag, they know they must pull into the pit area immediately. ③ A blue flag with yellow stripes is used to tell slower drivers to pull over and allow the leaders to pass. ④ Flags are used to represent organizations and groups of people such as the Olympic flag and the flag of the United Nations. ⑤ The two favorite flags of most drivers are: the white flag, which means “one lap to go,” and the checkered flag, which means “you have reached the finish.”

At Harvard many students are so impatient to shine that they try to peak before their full growth, not having time to ponder deeply. ① Being aware of this, the dean, Harry R. Lewis, asks freshmen to slow down and get more out of college by doing less. ② Dean Lewis does not want to discourage achievement, yet he insists that students are more likely to sustain the effort required if they allow time for leisure and solitude. ③ He cautions students not to pack their schedule with so many activities that they have no time to think about why they are doing what they are doing. ④ He asserts that the more work students do at one time, the more successful their school life will be. ⑤ Most precious is their freedom to choose, he insists, which they can maintain only by allowing for unstructured time and flexibility.
