Hundreds of years ago, Charles Darwin predicted that facial expressions of emotion are 【小题1】. If you’ve ever seen an episode of the popular US TV drama Lie To Me, you will really understand facial expressions. The leading actor of the show, Dr. Cal Lightman has spent 20 years studying nonverbal communication and facial expressions, which allows him to point out other people’s studying nonverbal communication and facial expressions which allows him to point out other people’s 【小题2】 and on many occasions, to be skilled at tricking in order to get the truth.

Is there really much truth behind this science of 【小题3】 human emotions through expressions? Paul Ekman, a(n) 【小题4】 psychologist whose work focuses on mapping facial expressions, is Lie To Me’s scientific advisor and the following are some of his explanations.

Hand-to-face gesture indicates a lie.

Each micro-expression is unique to 【小题5】 specific emotions because the person is often unaware of doing it. But it doesn’t necessarily mean that they are lying when someone uses a hand to hide part of his face. The person could be holding back information but you may better consider looking at other more important clues rather than just the simple hand-to-face gesture.

The elementary means of communicating with other people is conveying messages by voice. This fact is widely acknowledged and we recognize the voice as a(n) 【小题1】 characterizing the identity of a person. The array of voices is immeasurable as no two are exactly similar. They can be nasal, resonant or shrill produced in accordance with the individual physical【小题2】 of the throat.

One possible implementation of the 【小题3】 of voice recognition is voice profiling used by police analysts as a method of substantiating court evidence in trials. Every year, thousands of audiotapes with recorded interviews or 【小题4】 utterances are put to the purpose to help identify the probable 【小题5】. Specialists dealing with the voice investigation claim that people can give themselves away by their 【小题6】, inflections or other voice attributes like pitch, intensity and loudness. A recorded sample is usually 【小题7】 into electric impulses and later transformed into a pictorial recoding which is processed by a computer program. Very frequently voice analyst have a stake at deciphering the relevant information which may be 【小题8】 with background noise or other interfering sounds until they attain the 【小题9】 results.

Thankfully, these efforts help the police detect individuals who threaten their victims by phone or inform about bomb 【小题10】 or those who make offensive calls disturbing the peach of decent citizens.
