Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
When people find themselves in difficult conflicts, they often turn to mediation (调解).Mediators are advised to listen attentively, avoid favoring the ideas of one party, and make both sides feel at ease. Surprisingly, new research that my colleagues and I conducted shows that, to effectively help people settle their conflicts, mediators should adopt a hostile (敌意的) attitude rather than a calming one. A hostile mediator, we find, brings better results than a nice one.
Why would adding more negativity (消极性) to an already hostile situation prove beneficial? Consider how parents typically react when they can't get their children to stop quarreling:“I don't care who started it. Both of you go to your rooms!” At first sight, a calm mediator seems likely to be more effective. But as anyone with brothers or sisters knows, parents' seemingly (看上去) unsympathetic treatment of the situation can have an unusual effect.
In our research, we created situations in which pairs of negotiators were part of a heated conflict. In some cases, the mediator had a “nice” approach—calm and polite. In others, he was hostile—aggressive and somewhat rude. Across different types of conflicts, we found that negotiators were more willing and able to reach an agreement in the presence (在场) of a hostile mediator than in the presence of a nice one.
The main result of the test is not that hostility pays off. In fact, recent research has documented the social costs of negative behavior. For example, being the target of rude behavior reduces people's performance on a variety of tasks. Other research shows the social benefits of positive behavior. People are more likely to close deals and become future business partners.
Even with the widespread social benefits of positive behavior and costs of negative behavior,hostility can pay off in certain situations.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。当人们发现自己陷入难解的冲突时,他们往往求助于调解。建议调解员认真听取意见,避免偏袒一方的意见,使双方感到放心。即使积极行为有广泛的社会效益而消极行为具有一定的代价,敌意也能在某些情况下奏效。
1.What is the parents' settlement of conflicts in Paragraph 2?
A.It's calming and wise.
B.It's arbitrary but effective.
C.It's commonly adopted.
D.It harms family relationship.
解析:B 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“‘I don't care who started it.Both of you go to your rooms!’‘...parents' seemingly unsympathetic treatment of the situation can have an unusual effect.’”可知,第二段中提到的父母的方法虽然有些武断,但是对孩子之间矛盾的解决很有效。故选B。
2.How does the author support his viewpoints?
A.By giving examples and experimenting.
B.By analyzing causes and effects.
C.By presenting facts.
D.By making comparison.
解析:A [推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Consider how parents typically react when they can't get their children to stop quarreling”和第三段中对所做实验的介绍可知,作者通过提供例子和做实验来证明观点。故选A。]
3.Which best describes the author's attitude in the text?
A.Concerned. B.Doubtful.
C.Objective. D.Positive.
解析:C [推理判断题。文中作者在第二、三段讨论了调解者采取敌意态度的这种消极行为的作用和力量,同时在第四段也指出了积极行为的好处以及消极行为的代价。所以作者的态度是客观的。故选C。]
4.What could be the best title of the text?
A.The Significance of Effective Mediation
B.The Costs of Negative Behavior
C.The Benefits of Positive Behavior
D.The Surprising Power of Hostility
解析:D [主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“A hostile mediator,we find,brings better results than a nice one”,第二段中的“Why would adding more negativity (消极性) to an already hostile situation prove beneficial?”,第三段段末的“...we found that negotiators ...a hostile mediator than in the presence of a nice one”以及最后一段中的“hostility can pay off in certain situations”可知,作者主要介绍调解者采取的敌意态度的出乎意料的力量,所以The Surprising Power of Hostility作文章的标题最佳。故选D。]
B
On a cool night in San Francisco, a man calling himself Motor Mouth patrols (巡逻) the streets, looking to lend a hand to anyone needing aid. Dressed in a costume that includes a black mask to cover his face, Motor Mouth is one of a growing number of reallife “superheroes”. People belonging to this group do not have actual superpowers, but they do want to help their communities and make the world a safer place.
In 2001, more than 300 people claimed to participate in the reallife superhero movement. Some people, such as Benjamin Fodor, who also uses the name Phoenix Jones when wearing his mask and cape (披风), have received a lot of media attention. However, many of the other reallife superhero participants keep_low_profiles . Most prefer to fit in with everyone else.
Do these reallife superheroes actually help? It depends on whom you ask. Phoenix Jones claims to have stopped robberies and fights, but the police say that his actions sometimes interfere with their work. They even had to arrest him once for spraying (喷洒) someone with pepper spray. In general, it is dangerous for people to involve themselves in potentially violent situations such as breakins or fights. Police claim that regular citizens do not have the training or support to deal with criminals, and they advise wouldbe heroes to safely gather information about the crime and immediately call the police instead.
The reallife superheroes and their supporters claim that they are responding to needs in their communities that police officers are unable to meet. They point out that the vast majority of reallife superheroes perform community service work, such as helping to feed the homeless. They also claim that the superheroes are positive symbols for their communities, inspiring others to do good deeds.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇议论文。在旧金山有一些现实生活中的“超人”,他们热衷于社区工作,维护当地的治安环境,但是警察对于他们的工作持有不同的态度。
5.What can we infer about Phoenix Jones?
A.He is a character in a superhero film.
B.He is a reallife superhero.
C.He always helps the police.
D.He wants to be a policeman.
解析:B [推理判断题。根据第二段可知,有些人吸引了媒体的关注,并以Benjamin Fodor使用Phoenix Jones的名字为例,因此可推测Phoenix Jones是一位真实世界里的超级英雄。]
6.What does the underlined phrase “keep low profiles” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Avoid publicity. B.Stay positive.
C.Follow the order. D.Keep busy.
解析:A [词义猜测题。由However可知,画线短语所在句和前一句表述的是相反情况,再由“Most prefer to fit in with everyone else.”可知,画线短语的意思是“保持低调”,也就是“避免引人注意”。]
7.What did the police think of superheroes in the community?
A.They will cause more crime.
B.They disturb people's life.
C.They lack professional training.
D.They know little about crime.
解析:C [事实细节题。根据第三段中的“Police claim that regular citizens do not have the training or support to deal with criminals...”可知,普通人缺少专业训练。]
8.What is many reallife superheroes' opinion on themselves?
A.They have unique abilities.
B.They lower national crime rates.
C.They can satisfy the police's needs.
D.They help a lot in their communities.
解析:D [事实细节题。最后一段讲到现实生活中的超级英雄以及他们的支持者声称他们能做警察做不到的事情,为社区做义工,他们的行为能鼓励其他人做好事。由此可知“现实生活中的超级英雄”认为自己对社区帮助很大。]
