  • 第1题:

    (c) Assess the likely criteria which would need to be satisfied for software to be regarded as ‘quality software’.

    (4 marks)


    正确答案:
    (c) The following are important considerations regarding the quality of the business software:
    – The software is error-free as this will improve its reliability. Whilst in practice this might not always be achievable the
    directors of SSH must recognise the dangers involved in supplying bespoke software which may prove damaging to their
    clients’ businesses with the resulting loss of client goodwill.
    – The software should meet quality control standards such as those specified by the ISO (International Standards
    Organisation).
    – The software must be delivered on time. Late delivery of business software will prove problematic since clients may rely
    on updated software to meet new customer needs or to fulfil revised business objectives.
    – The software must meet the initial specification of the customer. In meeting the specification SSH will be demonstrating
    that the software has been produced correctly with an appropriate focus on the requirements of end users.
    – The software must be usable i.e. as well as being able to do what it is supposed to do it is important that it is easy to
    use.
    – The software should be capable of being updated in the light of future changes that occur in the clients’ requirements.

    Which of the following is true about the Internet according to the passage?
    A

    Americans were more in contact before the advent of the Internet.

    B

    The Internet is weakening the tie of social networks.

    C

    If you use the internet, you are more likely to get help from network members.

    D

    Internet users are more likely to receive help from non-users.


    正确答案: B
    解析:
    录音中最后一句提到“Internet users are more likely than non-users to receive help from network members.”(网络用户比非网络用户更有可能获得来自网络成员的帮助),由此可知如果你使用网络,你更有可能得到网络成员的帮助,所以选C。
    【录音原文】
      As the size of a person’s social network increases, it becomes more difficult for people to contact a large percentage of network members. The percentage of one’s social network contacted declines as network size grows. This pattern holds true for almost all forms of contact analyzed in the Social Ties survey. The one exception is email.
      As the size of people’s social network increases, the percentage of one’s social network contacted weekly by email does not decline, but remains about the same at about 20% of their ties. Several qualities of email help explain this finding. Email enables people to maintain more relationships easily because it is convenient as a communication tool and it gives the control in managing communication. The nature of email is such that people could carry on conversations at different times and at their leisure. This makes it possible for a quick note to an associate, whether it is about important news or seeking advice on an important decision. Moreover, it is almost as easy to email a message to many people as it is to email to only one...
      Contrary to fears that email would reduce other forms of contact, there is “media multiplexity”: that is, the more contact by email, the more in-person and phone contact. Therefore, Americans are probably more in contact with members of their communities and social networks than before the advent of the Internet. And Internet users are more likely than non-users to receive help from network members.

  • 第18题:

    资料:Procrastination comes in many disguises. We might resolve to tackle a task, but find endless reasons to defer it. We might prioritize things we can readily tick off our to-do list- answering emails, say- while leaving the big, complex stuff untouched for another day. We can look and feel busy. while artfully avoiding the tanks that really matter. And when we look at those rolling, long untouched items at the bottom of our to-do list, we can't help but feel a little disappointed in ourselves.
    The problem is our brains are programmed to procrastinate. In general, we all tend to struggle with task that promise future upside in return for efforts we take now. That's because it's easier for our brains to process concrete rather than abstract things, and the immediate hassle is very tangible compared with those unknowable, uncertain future benefits. So the short-term effort easily dominates the long-term upside in our minds--an example of something that behavioral scientists call present bias.
    How can you become less myopic about your elusive tasks? It's all about rebalancing the cost benefit analysis: make the benefits of action feel bigger, and the costs of action feel smaller. The reward for doing a pestering task needs to feel larger than the immediate pain of tacking it.
    To make the benefits of action feel bigger and more real:
    Visualize how great it will be to get it done. Researchers have discovered that people are more likely to save for their future retirement if they're shown digitally aged photographs of themselves. Why? Because it makes their future self feel more real-making the future benefits of saving also feel more weighty.

    The next paragraph is probably about____.

    A.The natural function of our brain
    B.The other ways to make the benefits of action feel bigger and real
    C.The other ways to make the benefits of action feel smaller and unreal
    D.The perils of procrastination

    答案:B
    解析:
    本题考查的是判断推理。
    【关键词】next paragraph; probably about
    【主题句】倒数第2段To make the benefits of action feel bigger and more real使行动的好处感觉更强烈更真实。
    【解析】本题的问题是“下一段也许会讨论什么?”。选项A意为“我们大脑的自然功能”;选项B意为“使行动的好处感觉更大更真实的其他方法”;选项C意为“使行动的好处的其他方式感觉更小和不真实”;选项D意为“拖延的危险”。通览全文可知,文章讲的是如何避免拖延,作者就该问题给出了一个建议:To make the benefits of action feel bigger and more real.
    对于这个建议的实施,作者在最后一段有说明,因此接下来作者也会针对这个建议进行更多详细说明,故B项正确。
