24年1月高考英语D篇解析 D The Stanford marshmallow (棉花糖) test was originally conducted by psychologist Walter Mischel in the late 1960s. Children aged four to six at a nursery school were placed in a room. A single sugary treat, selected by the child, was placed on a table. Each child was told if they waited for 15 minutes before eating the treat, they would be given a second treat. Then they were left alone in the room. Follow-up studies with the children later in life showed a connection between an ability to wait long enough to obtain a second treat and various forms of success. 翻译:斯坦福棉花糖测试最初是由心理学家沃尔特 米歇尔在20世纪60年代末进行的。幼儿园里4到6岁的孩子被安排在一个房间里。孩子们选了一份糖,放在桌子上。每个孩子都被告知,如果他们在吃之前等待15分钟,他们将得到第二次奖励。然后把他们单独留在房间里。对这些孩子以后生活的后续研究表明,等待足够长的时间以获得第二次奖励的能力与各种形式的成功之间存在联系。 解析:这一段介绍了针对幼儿园小朋友的棉花糖测试,说明了测试的过程和结果。引出话题。涉及本段的题目为35题。细节题,根据第一段中对这个测试过程的描述可知答案为D项。考查对于文章中wait for 15 minutes before eating the treat和delay eating for 15 minutes的同义替换。 32.
