  • 第9题:

    资料:Faces, like fingerprints, are unique. Did you ever wonder how it possible for us to recognize people? Even a skilled writer probably could not describe all the features that make one face different from another. Yet a very young child or even an animal, such as a pingeon can learm to recognize faces. We all take this ability for granted.
    We also tell people apart by how they behave. When we talk about someone’s personality, we mean the ways in which he or she acts, speaks, thinks and feels that make that individual different from others.
    Like the human face human personality is very complex. But describing someone’s peronality in words is somewhat easier than describing his face. If you were asked to describe what a nice face looked like, you probably would have a difficult time doing so. But if you were asked to describe a nice person, you might begin to think about someone who was kind, considerate friendly, warm, and so forth.
    There are many words to describe how a person thinks, feels and acts. Gordon Allports, an American psychologist, found nearly18,000 English words characterizing differences in people’s behavior. And many of us use this information as a basis for describing or typing, his personality. Bookworms, conservatives, military types——people are described with such terms.
    People have always tried to type each other. Actors in early Greek drama wore masks to show the audience whether they played the villain’s or the hero’s role. In fact, the words person and persoality come from the Latin persona, meaning mask. Today, most television and movie actors do not wear masks. But we can easily tell the good guys from the bad guys because the two types differ in appearance as well as in actions.

    Which of the following is NOT true?

    A.People differ from each in appearance
    B.Different people may have different personalities
    C.People can learn to recognize faces
    D.People can describe all the features of others

    答案:D
    解析:
    本题考查的是细节理解。
    【关键词】NOT true
    【主题句】第一段Faces, like fingerprints, are unique.(脸就像指纹一样独一无二。);Yet a very young child-or even an animal, such as a pigeon --- can learn to recognize faces. We all take this ability for granted.(然而,一个非常小的孩子,或者一个动物(比如企鹅),他们能学会识别面容);Even a skilled writer probably could not describe all the features that make one face different from another.(可能即使是一位熟练的作家,他也不能把两张脸不同之处的所有特点描述出来。);第二段When we talk about someone’s personality, we mean the ways in which he or she acts, speaks, thinks and feels that make that individual different from others.(当谈到某个人的个性时,我们指的是他或她的行为,说话,思考和感受,这些能让个体区分他人。)
    【解析】第3题问“以下哪一项不是正确选项?”。A选项“人们的外貌都有不同”,该选项和第一段第一句话“脸就像指纹一样独一无二”内容一致;B选项“不同的人可能有不同的个性”,和文章第二段第二句话一致。C选项“人们能学会识别人脸”,和第一段第四句话“然而,一个非常小的孩子,或者一个动物(比如企鹅),他们能学会识别面容”内容一致。D选项“人们能把别人的所有特点描述出来”,和文章第一段第三句内容相反,原文说“即使是一位熟练的作家,他也不能把两张脸不同之处的所有特点描述出来”,说明没有人能说出所有特点,所以D选项为错误选项。

    Rob Reiner,co-founder of Castle Rock Entertainment,was greadtly surprised when he saw his studio's film Proof of Life. “Wow,why is Meg Ryan smoking up a storm?”Reiner says. “It didn't add to the plot. ”Fourteen months later,Castle Rock has a policy of discouraging tobacco use. Any actor,director or screenwriter who wants to depict it must first meet with Reiner. “They have to make a really good case. ”he says. “Movies are basically advertising cigarettes to kids. ”Movie characters light up more often than people do in real life,argues Stanton Glantz,a professor of medicine who has launched a“Smoke-Free Movies”newspaper ad campaign. His study found that on average the 20 top-grossing films featured 50%more instances of smoking an hour in 2000 than in 1960. And an American Lung Association survey discovered that 61%of the tobacco use in films last year occurred in movies rated G,PG and PG-13. With teen smoking up dramatically in the past decade,a movement is building to hold Hollywood accountable. So Glantz says,“The entertainment industry is in denial. ”

    But it's getting an education. Susan Moses,deputy director of Harvard's Center for Health Communication,and Lindsay Doran,former head of United Artists,have been going from one studio to another. They hit the bosses with hard facts:a million teens a year become daily smokers,and a third of those will eventually die from tobacco-related illness. When Doran and Moses met with executives from Imagine Pictures,says Doran,“They said,‘Smoking is not in any of our scripts. ’But then they called the next day and said,‘We looked,and it's everywhere. ’”Karen Kehela,co-chairman of Imagine,recalls trying to take smoking out of one script. after the meeting,“but the actor insisted on smoking,”she says. In fact,many movie stars can't leave their cigarettes in the dressing room. “Actors who smoke look for any reason to integrate it into their characters,”Reiner says. “You have directors who don't care about the social implications or are yielding to the actors. ”

    Reiner was astonished at the film Proof of Life made in his studio because______.

    A.one of the characters smoked a lot

    B.smoking added something to the plot

    C.smoking in the film resulted in a storm

    D.tobacco use was prohibited from films


    正确答案:A
    解析:细节题。题干大意:Reiner对他的制片场制作的电影“Proof of Life”感到吃惊是因为……。根据文章第一段可知,他对一个名叫Meg Ryan的演员吸很多烟而感到吃惊。因此A项是正确选项。

  • 第20题:

    Text 1 They are falling like dominoes.Executives caught behaving badly might once have been slapped on the wrist.Today they are shown the door.On July 19th Paramount Television fired its president,Amy Powell,over reports of insensitive comments about race.This is only the latest bigwig to go in a line of departures linked to"personal misconduct"."Boards are now holding executives to higher standards,looking not just at how they treat people but also how they talk to and about them,"says Pam Jeffords of Mercer,a consultancy.The thread connecting these incidents is that all are about perceptions of executive integrity,and by extension,trust.Since trust violations are particularly hard for firms to overcome,often more so than incompetence,firms may believe that firing an errant executive can be the safest,most pragmatic course of action.Executives were never alt angels.What has changed is that boards are now far less willing to overlook bad behaviour for the sake of superior performance.A 2017 report from PwC,a professional-services firm,found that the share of chief-executive dismissals that were due to ethical lapses increased between 2007-11 and 2012-2016,not because bosses were behaving worse but because they were held more accountable.Boards seem to be acting thus for two reasons.First,to protect employees and create a safe and inclusive work environment.Second,to protect their brands'reputations.A 2016 study from researchers at Stanford showed that the fallout from chief executives behaving badly,but not unlawfully,was large and lasting.On average each of the 38 incidents studied garnered 250 news stories,with media attention lasting 4.9 years.Shares usually suffered,though not always.And in a third of cases firms faced further damage,including loss of major clients and federal investigations.Should an executive's words be judged as harshly as their actions?From the perspective of protecting the brand,as well as discouraging a toxic work environment,they probably should.The power of social media to turn a whispered comment into a Twitterstorm,and the fact that everyone now has a mobile recording device,demands a decisive response.But boards and the media also risk rushing to judgment and painting the wicked with too broad a brush.An insensitive remark made long ago or as a one-off is not the same as one made as the face of the firm or as part of a consistent pattern.Disney's firing of James Gunn,a director,last week over tweets from a decade ago,before he was hired and for which he has apologised,seems to be one instance in which such distinctions have been papered over.And plenty of companies benefit from environments where people can speak openly and brainstorm out loud.Once the fallen dominos have been counted,some firms may turn out to have been too gung-ho in responding to the"Weinstein effect".Many,perhaps most,exits will be justified.But all?
    We can infer from Paragraphs 4 and 5 that——

    A.many executives behaved badly because of their eagerness to protect brand reputation
    B.only a small percentage of the stories about executives have been proved true
    C.a firm may suffer heavy losses due to an insensitive remark from its executives
    D.social media is encouraging misconducts among chief executives with its great power

    答案:C
    解析:
    【信息锁定】第四段指出,高管的不端行为会带来巨大且持久的影响(股价受损,失去大客户,受到联邦调查等)。第五段则指出,鉴于当前社交媒体的强大传播力量以及移动录音设备的普及,高管的不当言论极有可能会产生巨大的影响,因此董事会对其评判同不当行为一样严苛、采取果断行动。C.正确。【解题技巧】A.将第四段③④句protect their brands'reputations和chicf executives behaving badly揉杂干扰,从而将“开除行为不当的高管实则是为了保护品牌声誉(即:高管的不当行为很可能会影响品牌声誉”)窜改为与之相反的“高管之所以做出不当行为,是因为太急于保护品牌声誉”。B.错误理解第四段⑤句数据,该数据是为了说明“高管行为不当事件会引发大量媒体报道”并非“只有一小部分事件报道被证实为真”。D.错误理解第五段末句,该句指出“社交媒体的强犬扩散力量使得高管不当言论的破坏力巨大”,并非说明“社交媒体正在助长高管的不当行为”。

    【解析】第2题问“作者最有可能从事什么职业?”。根据整篇文章内容,该文讲述了区分不同人的方法:外貌和行为个性。四个选项哪个选项是研究人类行为的呢?A选项“心理学家”,他是研究人类行为的专家,心理学家关心人们为什么那样思想,那样行动。所以A为正确答案。B选项“行为主义者”,他们的主要观点是认为心理学不应该研究意识,只应该研究行为,把行为与意识完全对立起来。B选项过于片面,所以排除;C选项“作家”,该选项过于笼统,应该选择带有某一专业背景的人物,故排除;D选项“社会学家”,他们是观察和分析社会的方式,和原文不符,排除。此外,文章第四段举例处提到一位美国的心理学家,所以该文作者也应该是研究该领域的一位学者。
