Have you ever had a gut(本能的) feeling? Do you know someone may have a sixth sense(第六感)? Believe it or not, these are different ways to describe the same thing. It’s what people usually call intuition(直觉力).
In many people's opinion, there is something special about intuition. In fact, scientists believe that intuition has something to do with science. It means that we are able to make decisions without even knowing it. It is not because who we are. Instead, it has to do with the hippocampus(海马体) -a part of our brain(大脑). Scientists think the hippocampus plays apart in building our intuition. It makes many decisions before we know it, because we got the information from past experiences. And the more life experience we get, the stronger our intuition will become.
Let's think about an example. Have you ever had the feeling that someone lies(撒谎)? Unluckily, most people have. Imagine you found out later that you were right. This may make people think you have a super power. However, you weren't reading others' brain. Instead, you were using intuition. Maybe your brain noticed that the person was afraid to look into your eyes. Based on your experience, it warned you―through intuition —that something wasn’t quite right. So can we believe our intuition? Often, the answer is yes. Following intuition can help people make good decisions. ▲ If our intuition goes against facts, it maybe best to think again.
根据语篇内容，选择最佳选项。
71.How does the writer lead into the topic(话题)?
A.By giving examples. B.By telling stories. C.By asking questions.
72.What can we learn about the hippocampus according to the passage?
A.It helps us make decisions.
B.It is part of our hearts.
C.It is also called intuition.
73.What is the main idea of paragraph 3?
A.Ways to find out if someone lies.
B.An example about how intuition works.
C.The importance of believing our experiences.
74.Which of the following sentences can be put into the blank ▲ .
A.But it's always important to think twice.
B.And our intuition can work faster.
C.So we can't make decisions by ourselves.
75.What is the best title of the passage?
A.Our experience. B.Our brain. C.Our intuition.
