It’s a long-awaited day for China. The navy now has its first aircraft carrier (航空母舰), Liaoning. The carrier is just like a small city on the sea. It has all the functions for daily life. There are 4 words to sum up its characters: big, small, much and high. The carrier Liaoning is such a huge one that the total length of the whole corridor（过道）could reach over 20 kilometers. But the living space for the sailors is quite small. That’s because the carrier is designed for researching purposes, rather than comfortable living.

Genes carry codes(代码)for blue eyes or brown eyes. Genes say how tall you will get and what color hair you will have. You got half of your genes from your mother. You got half of your genes from your father. So you have your own set of genes. Each person gets different genes for each body part. That is why you look like--but not exactly like--your brother or sister.
A dominant(显性的)gene shows up most of the time. Brown eyes are dominant over blue eyes. A recessive(隐性的)gene shows up less often. Light hair comes from a recessive gene. Dark hair is more common. Look at the eye color and hair color of the people around you. You will see that this is true.
Genes help to make you who you are. But they don’t tell the whole story. Your genes may help you to be fast and strong. But you still need to learn how to run or swim or skate well.

Scientists Adam Galinsky and Hajo Adams report that there is science behind our style. In their research，Galinsky and Adams had some participants(参与者)wear white lab coats similar to the ones scientists or doctors wear. Other participants wore their normal clothes. The participants took a test that surveyed their ability to pay attention. In the experiment, participants saw cards with different-colored words on them. They had to say the color of the word they saw, not the word itself. The people wearing the white lab coats said the correct color of the word more often.
Galinsky and Adams think that the white coats made the participants feel more confident and careful. The researchers also believe that other kinds of "symbolic" clothes can influence the behavior of the people wearing them. And in workplaces that have a dress code， "symbolic" clothes may also affect how well employees do their jobs.
Fashion blogger Jessica Quirk believes that our clothes greatly affect how we feel about ourselves. According to Quirk，"We should choose a look that makes us feel more creative and happy. One way to do this at work is to "dress up for the exciting job we want，" she says，"not the boring job we have. " Another way is to wear special clothes that mean something to us.
As Quirk points out-and as researchers have discovered-our clothes are "like our second skin. " The clothes we wear can affect our behavior. They can also tell the world something about us, without us having to say a word.
Skim the first and last paragraphs
