Ⅳ阅读理解(每小题2.5分,共10分)
None of us like to think we'd walk on by when someone
needed our help. But sometimes we behave in ways we
wouldn't expect when encountering a situation we are unsure
about. Research from the British Heart Foundation has
suggested that a third of people would not perform first aid if
they saw someone collapse on the street, with some even
admitting they wouldn't call an ambulance. This can sometimes
mean that no one helps when someone desperately needs it.
However, a lot of tragic events urge us to take immediate
action.

One of the most famous examples of this is the tragic case
of Kitty Genovese who was fatally stabbed (刺,捅) in Kew
Gardens, New York, in 1964. Follow-up investigations concluded
that several people saw or heard what was happening, but did
nothing to intervene. This has been termed the “bystander
effect”—a well-known psychological phenomenon that individuals
are less likely to offer help to someone when other people are
present. The more people there are, the less likely they are to
help.

There are various factors contributing to this effect—people
think that others will get involved or intervene. Afterwards
people often say they did not feel qualified or senior or
important enough to be the one to intervene. It is also partly
down to “pluralistic ignorance”—since everyone is not reacting
to the emergency, they don't need to either; it's not serious
because no one else is doing anything.
Self-awareness is the best antidote to it. When encountering
an emergency, think to yourself how you would behave if you
1

were on your own. Ignore everyone else and how they are
behaving and go with your instinct (直觉)—if you'd call an
ambulance, do it. If you'd run for help, do it. If that's how you
would have behaved when you were on your own then that's
probably the right course of action.

【文章大意】本文是一篇议论文。文章开篇提出人们在面对他人需
要帮助的情况时存在的一些不作为现象这一问题,接着通过Kitty
Genovese的事例引入“旁观者效应”这一概念并对其进行分析阐述,
包括产生该效应的多种因素,最后提出自我意识是应对“旁观者效应”
的解决办法。

ways we wouldn't expect when encountering a situation we are
unsure about. Research from the British Heart Foundation has
suggested that a third of people would not perform first aid if
they saw someone collapse on the street, with some even
admitting they wouldn't call an ambulance.”(但有时,当我们遇到
不确定的情况时,我们的行为方式会出乎我们的意料。英国心脏基

行动方案。)可知,自我意识是应对“旁观者效应”的最佳解决方案,
段落阐述了通过自我意识按照自己的本能行动的具体做法,由此可
