In one class

12、ic experiment, people were shown a vertical line and asked to find a line of identical length from a selection of three. You might think that this is an absurdly easy task, and when people perform it by themselves they do it very well. However, psychologists have discovered that we are very easily s

13、wayed by the opinions of other people when we do this task in a group. In one study, a group of three people was set up, where two of the people were confederates (同伙) of the experimenter. When the confederates deliberately gave wrong answers, people were often swayed to give the wrong answer also.

14、In fact, 75% of people gave at least one wrong answer, with some people conforming to peer pressure on every occasion. But why do people conform in this way? In an easy task like this, it seems that people do not want to step out of line with the prevailing opinion of the group. On more difficult ta

15、sks, people also conform because they lose confidence in their own ability to make decisions and prefer to trust the majority opinion instead. A typical example of this kind of conformity arises when we come across people in distress. Would you help a woman who has been attacked in the street? It tu

16、rns out that you are much more likely to go to her assistance if you are alone. When other people are also around, a diffusion of responsibility occurs. People are paralysed into inaction, because everyone assumes that someone else will go to the womans assistance.(1).In Paragraph 1, the underlined

17、word conform probably means “_”.A.seek independenceB.disobey ordersC.seek pleasureD.follow what others do(2).What is the purpose of the experiment described in Paragraph 2? To _.A.explain why people would be influenced by the opinions of othersB.prove that people are easily influenced by the opinion

18、s of othersC.train the confederates of the experimenter as independent-mindedD.describe how people would be influenced by the opinions of others(3).In the last paragraph, according to the author, why wouldnt one help the woman? He _.A.thinks he has no responsibilities to give a handB.thinks he has n

19、othing to do with itC.is too shy to give his helping handD.thinks someone else will offer assistance(4).What method does the author mainly use to develop the text?A.Giving examples.B.Cause-effect analysis.C.Comparative analysis.D.Process analysis.对旳答案: (1).D (2).B (3).D (4).A2.Owning a smartphone ma

20、y not be as smart as you think. It may let you surf the Internet, listen to music and snap photos wherever you arebut it also turns you into a workaholic, it seems. A study suggests that, by giving you access to emails at all times, the all-singing, all-dancing mobile phone adds as much as two hours

21、 to your working day. Researchers found that Britons work an additional 460 hours a year on average as they are able to respond to emails on their mobiles. The study by technology retailer Pixmania reveals the average UK working day is between 9 and 10 hours, but a further two hours is spent respond

22、ing to or sending work emails, or making work calls. More than 90 percent of office workers have email-enabled phones, with a third accessing them more than 20 times a day. Almost one in ten admits spending up to three hours outside their normal working day checking work emails. Some workers confess

23、(承认) they are on call almost 24 hours a day, with nine out of ten saying they make work emails and calls outside their normal working hours. The average time for first checking emails is between 6 a.m. and 7 a.m., with more than a third checking their first emails in this period, and a quarter check

24、ing them between 11 p.m. and midnight. Ghadi Hobeika, marketing director of Pixmania, said, “The ability to access literally millions of apps, keep in contact via social networks and take photos and video as well as text and call has made smartphones invaluable for many people. However, there are dr

25、awbacks. Many companies expect their employees to be on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and smartphones mean that people literally cannot get away from work. The more constantly in contact we become , the more is expected of us in a work capacity(容量).”(1).What can we conclude from the text?A

26、.All that glitters is not gold.B.It never rains but pours.C.Every coin has two sides.D.Its no good crying over spilt milk.(2).The underlined word “accessing” in the third paragraph can be replaced by “_”.A.callingB.reachingC.gettingD.using(3).Which of the following is true according to the text?A.Th

But ma

29、ny supporters have overlooked the reality that this new business model is largely based on escaping regulations and breaking the law. Airbnb is an internet-based service that allows people to rent out spare rooms to strangers for short stays. Uber is an internet taxi service that allows thousands of

30、 people to answer ride requests with their own cars. There are hundreds of other such services. The good thing about the sharing economy is that it promotes the use of underused resources. Millions of people have houses or apartments with empty rooms, and Airbnb allows them to profit from these room

31、s while allowing guests a place to stay at prices that are often far less than those charged by hotels. Uber offers prices that are competitive with standard taxi prices and their drivers are often much quicker and more trustworthy. But the downside of the sharing economy has gotten much less attent

32、ion. Most cities and states both tax and regulate hotels, and the tourists who stay in hotels are usually an important source of tax income. But many of Airbnbs customers are not paying the taxes required under the law. Airbnb can also raise issues of safety for its customers and trouble for hosts n

33、eighbors. Hotels are regularly inspected to ensure that they are not fire traps and that they dont form other risks for visitors. Airbnb hosts face no such inspections. Since Airbnb is allowing people to escape taxes and regulations, the company is simply promoting thefts. Others in the economy will

34、 lose by bearing an additional tax burden or being forced to live next to an apartment unit with a never-ending series of noisy visitors. The same story may apply with Uber. Uber is currently in disputes over whether its cars meet the safety and insurance requirements imposed on standard taxis. Also

35、, if Uber and related services flood the market, they could harm all taxi drivers ability to earn a minimum wage. This downside of the sharing needs to be taken seriously, but that doesnt mean the current tax and regulatory structure is perfect.(1).What is the positive thing about the sharing econom

36、y?A.It is a global trend.B.It is beyond regulations.C.It draws on spare resources.D.It brings in modest profits.(2).What is the problem with Airbnb customers according to the passage?A.They are not regularly inspected.B.They are likely to commit thefts.C.They are allowed not to pay taxes.D.They can

37、be noisy to hosts neighbours.(3).What is the argument over Uber according to the passage?A.Whether it guarantees customers safety.B.Whether it provides reliable services.C.Whether it lowers customers expenses.D.Whether it can compete with standard taxis.(4).What will be talked about in the following

38、 paragraphs?A.Existing regulations and laws.B.More downsides of Airbnb and Uber.C.Further development of Airbnb and Uber.D.Necessary improvements of current laws.对旳答案: (1).C (2).D (3).A (4).B三、 简答题 (共 3 道试题,共 15 分)1.Only in American can a billionaire carry on like plain folks and get away with it.答：

40、王萨姆?穆尔?沃尔顿仍然开着她那辆红白色旳1979年出厂旳福特牌轻型货车，仍然穿行在弯弯曲曲旳乡间小道上，身边仍然坐着她旳捕禽猎犬。每逢狩猎季节来临时，她跟别人同样在本地旳沃尔玛商店排队购买猎枪子弹。3.He figured in two or three months hed have enough money to buy exactly the kind of guitar.答：她合计着，再过两三个月她就会有足够旳钱去买她想要旳那种吉她。四、 问答题 (共 1 道试题,共 15 分)1.Directions: 请在30分钟内以诚实是有回报旳为题参照给出旳提纲写大概80字旳作文。It Pays to Be Honest.
