问题 Tests conducted at the University of Pennsylvania’s Psychological Laboratory showed that anger is one of the most difficult emotions to detect from facial expression. Professor Dallas E. Buzby confronted 716 students with pictures of extremely angry persons and asked them to identify the emotion from facial expression. Only 2 percent made correct judgments. Anger was most frequently judged as "pleased. " And a typical reaction of a student with the picture of a man who was hopping mad was to classify his expression as either "bewildered", "quizzical", or simply "amazed" . Other students showed that it is extremely difficult to tell whether a man is angry or not just by looking at his face. The investigators found further that women are better at detecting anger from facial expression than men are. Paradoxically, they found that psychological training does not sharpen one’s ability to judge a man’s emotions by his expressions but appears actually to hinder it. For in the university tests, the more courses the subjects had taken in psychology, the poorer judgment scores he turned in. [br] The author used the word "Paradoxically" in his sentence about psychological training to imply that______.

选项 A、we can expect such training to have the effect stated
B、we should expect such training to result in better scores
C、such information is offered as an afterthought
D、such information is an sidelight of the findings

答案 B

解析题中paradoxically的意思是“荒谬地，矛盾地”，即人们本来认为学过心理学的人应该更容易从面部表情分辨出生气，但调查结果恰恰相反，因此正确答案为B。
