We Could Be Heroes
Altruism (利他主义) has long been an evolutionary mystery. Why would anyone choose to help somebody not related to them, with no promise of ___11___? The usual answer is that such behaviour is an adaptation: for example, groups in which it emerged would have been more ___12___, and hence more successful. But what about acts of extreme altruism? Can we ever understand why some people risk — and sometimes lose — their lives for a stranger?
To try to answer this question, Samuel Oliner, a sociologist, and his wife Pearl set up the Altruistic Personality and Prosocial Behavior Institute at Humboldt State University in 1982. In one of their first studies, still the largest of its kind, they ____13____ 406 people who had risked their lives to rescue Jew in Nazi-occupied Europe, along with 72 people who had lived in occupied areas but had done nothing out of the ____14____. A number of things became clear. The rescuers were much more _____15_____ than the non-rescuers, and they also supported values of fairness, compassion and personal ____16____ towards strangers that they said they had learned from their parents.
What’s more, they were unusually tolerant: the people they ____17____ as their “in group” consisted of the whole of humanity, not just their own kind. As Kristen Monroe at the University of California, Irvine, who has studied the psychology of Holocaust rescuers, puts it: “Where the rest of us see a stranger, an altruist sees a fellow human being.”
Samuel Oliner says his finding has held up in all their follow-up studies. It has also been proved by psychologists Eva Fogelman, whose father, too ____18____ his wartime survival to the generosity of Polish farmers. Fogelman has spent much of her career studying the psychological effects of the Holocaust on ____19____ and their families. In her book Conscience and Courage, she recalls her conversations with about 300 rescuers of Jews: I began after a while to wait for the recital of one or more of those well-known passages: a loving home; an altruistic parent or beloved caretaker who ____20____ as a role model for altruistic behavior, a tolerance for people who were different.
【答案】11. G 12. C

Section B (14’)
Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A. B. C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
I was putting on my boots just now in what the novelists call “a brown study.” There was no urgent reason for putting on my boots. I was not going out, and my slippers were much more comfortable. But something had to be done. I wanted a subject for an article. Now if you are accustomed to writing articles for a living, you will know that sometimes the difficulty is not writing the article, but choosing a subject. It is not poverty you suffer from, but an embarrassment of riches.
But what has this to do with putting on my boots? It is a reasonable question and I will tell you. For an hour I had paced my room in my slippers in search of a subject. I had looked out of the window over the sunlit valley, and watched the smoke of a distant train disappearing towards the west. I had sharpened every pencil I had on me with great care. But the more I sharpened my pencils, the more anxious I grew about the theme for an article.
It was at this moment that I remembered my boots. The act of bending my body changed the current of the blood. You saw things in a new light. So I fetched my boots and sat down to put them on.
The thing worked like a charm. For in my preoccupied condition I picked up my right boot first. Then mechanically I put it down and seized the left boot. And then the fact flashed on me that all my life I had been putting on my left boot first. If you had asked me five minutes before which boot I put on first, I should have said that there was no first about it; yet now I found I was in a habit so fixed that the attempt to put on my right boot first affected me. The thing couldn’t be done. And then came into my mind that fascinating book of Samuel Butler’s on Life and Habit. Yes, certainly, here was a subject that would “go.” I took out a pencil, seized some writing paper, and sat down to write on “The Force of Habit.”
36. By “It is not poverty you suffer from, but an embarrassment of riches.” in paragraph 1, the author means _____.
A. some subjects are too complicated or embarrassing to write on
B. poverty is no longer a problem nowadays, but embarrassment is
C. poor people don’t encounter as many embarrassments as the rich
D. there’re so many subjects that it’s hard to decide which to choose
37. Why did the author sharpen his pencils with great care?
A. To help himself promote thinking. B. To draw what he saw out of the window.
C. To write his article more smoothly. D. To relieve himself of anxiety about writing.
38. Putting on the boots helped the author _____.
A. get rid of his fixed habit B. lower his blood pressure
C. see things from a new angle D. free his preoccupied mind
39. The passage is mainly about the author’s _____.
A. personal attitude towards habits B. daily routines as a professional writer
C. writing process of a special article D. decision making on the theme for an article
【答案】36. D 37. A 38. C 39. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者一次写作时遇到了选题困难,正当作者焦头烂额时,作者的无意之举给了他灵感,帮助他找到了文章主题。
【36题详解】
句意猜测题。联系这句话的上一句“Now if you are accustomed to writing articles for a living, you will know that sometimes the difficulty is not writing the article, but choosing a subject.(现在,如果你已经习惯了以写文章为生,你就会知道,有时困难并不在于写文章,而在于选主题。)”可知,作者认为写文章远远没有选择主题困难。由此判断,这句话的意思指的是主题太多太难选择。故选D。
【37题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“For an hour I had paced my room in my slippers in search of a subject. I had looked out of the window over the sunlit valley, and watched the smoke of a distant train disappearing towards the west. I had sharpened every pencil I had on me with great care.(为了找一个话题,我穿着拖鞋在房间里踱了一个小时。我望着窗外阳光普照的山谷,看着远处火车的烟雾向西消失。我小心翼翼地削好了随身携带的每一支铅笔。)”可知,作者小心翼翼地削好了随身携带的每一支铅笔是为了提升思维,找到一个话题。故选A。
【38题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“You saw things in a new light. So I fetched my boots and sat down to put them on.(你从新的角度看问题。于是我把靴子拿来,坐下来穿上。)”以及第四段“The thing worked like a charm. For in my preoccupied condition I picked up my right boot first. Then mechanically I put it down and seized the left boot. And then the fact flashed on me that all my life I had been putting on my left boot first. If you had asked me five minutes before which boot I put on first, I should have said that there was no first about it; yet now I found I was in a habit so fixed that the attempt to put on my right boot first affected me.(这东西很管用。因为在我全神贯注的情况下,我先拿起了我的右靴子。然后我机械地把它放下,抓起左边的靴子。这时我突然想到,我这一辈子都是先穿左边的靴子。如果你在五分钟前问我先穿哪只靴子,我就会说没有先穿这回事;然而现在我发现我已经养成了一个固定的习惯,以至于先试着穿上右边的靴子都会影响到我。)”可知,穿靴子这件事帮助作者从其他角度看待问题,给了作者灵感。故选C。
【39题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“There was no urgent reason for putting on my boots. I was not going out, and my slippers were much more comfortable. But something had to be done. I wanted a subject for an article. Now if you are accustomed to writing articles for a living, you will know that sometimes the difficulty is not writing the article, but choosing a subject.(没有什么紧急的理由让我穿上靴子。我不出去,我的拖鞋舒服多了。但是必须做点什么。我想找个文章的题目。现在,如果你已经习惯了以写文章为生,你就会知道,有时困难并不在于写文章,而在于选题目。)”可知,作者苦于找不到文章的主题;以及最后一段“And then came into my mind that fascinating book of Samuel Butler’s on Life and Habit. Yes, certainly, here was a subject that would “go.” I took out a pencil, seized some writing paper, and sat down to write on “The Force of Habit.”(然后,我想起了塞缪尔·巴特勒那本关于生活和习惯的迷人的书。是的,当然,这是一个可以“走”的主题。我拿出一支铅笔,抓起几张信纸,坐下来开始写“习惯的力量”)”可知,作者穿靴子时有了灵感,从而确定了文章的主题。故选D。

We Could Be Heroes
Altruism (利他主义) has long been an evolutionary mystery. Why would anyone choose to help somebody not related to them, with no promise of ___11___? The usual answer is that such behaviour is an adaptation: for example, groups in which it emerged would have been more ___12___, and hence more successful. But what about acts of extreme altruism? Can we ever understand why some people risk — and sometimes lose — their lives for a stranger?
To try to answer this question, Samuel Oliner, a sociologist, and his wife Pearl set up the Altruistic Personality and Prosocial Behavior Institute at Humboldt State University in 1982. In one of their first studies, still the largest of its kind, they ____13____ 406 people who had risked their lives to rescue Jew in Nazi-occupied Europe, along with 72 people who had lived in occupied areas but had done nothing out of the ____14____. A number of things became clear. The rescuers were much more _____15_____ than the non-rescuers, and they also supported values of fairness, compassion and personal ____16____ towards strangers that they said they had learned from their parents.
What’s more, they were unusually tolerant: the people they ____17____ as their “in group” consisted of the whole of humanity, not just their own kind. As Kristen Monroe at the University of California, Irvine, who has studied the psychology of Holocaust rescuers, puts it: “Where the rest of us see a stranger, an altruist sees a fellow human being.”
Samuel Oliner says his finding has held up in all their follow-up studies. It has also been proved by psychologists Eva Fogelman, whose father, too ____18____ his wartime survival to the generosity of Polish farmers. Fogelman has spent much of her career studying the psychological effects of the Holocaust on ____19____ and their families. In her book Conscience and Courage, she recalls her conversations with about 300 rescuers of Jews: I began after a while to wait for the recital of one or more of those well-known passages: a loving home; an altruistic parent or beloved caretaker who ____20____ as a role model for altruistic behavior, a tolerance for people who were different.

Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A. B. C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
I was putting on my boots just now in what the novelists call “a brown study.” There was no urgent reason for putting on my boots. I was not going out, and my slippers were much more comfortable. But something had to be done. I wanted a subject for an article. Now if you are accustomed to writing articles for a living, you will know that sometimes the difficulty is not writing the article, but choosing a subject. It is not poverty you suffer from, but an embarrassment of riches.
But what has this to do with putting on my boots? It is a reasonable question and I will tell you. For an hour I had paced my room in my slippers in search of a subject. I had looked out of the window over the sunlit valley, and watched the smoke of a distant train disappearing towards the west. I had sharpened every pencil I had on me with great care. But the more I sharpened my pencils, the more anxious I grew about the theme for an article.
It was at this moment that I remembered my boots. The act of bending my body changed the current of the blood. You saw things in a new light. So I fetched my boots and sat down to put them on.
The thing worked like a charm. For in my preoccupied condition I picked up my right boot first. Then mechanically I put it down and seized the left boot. And then the fact flashed on me that all my life I had been putting on my left boot first. If you had asked me five minutes before which boot I put on first, I should have said that there was no first about it; yet now I found I was in a habit so fixed that the attempt to put on my right boot first affected me. The thing couldn’t be done. And then came into my mind that fascinating book of Samuel Butler’s on Life and Habit. Yes, certainly, here was a subject that would “go.” I took out a pencil, seized some writing paper, and sat down to write on “The Force of Habit.”
36. By “It is not poverty you suffer from, but an embarrassment of riches.” in paragraph 1, the author means _____.
