8.EmpathyLast year,researchers from the University of Michigan reported that empathy,the ability to understand other people,among college students had dropped sharply over the past 10 years.(36)BToday,people spend more time alone and are less likely to join groups and clubs.
Jennifer Freed,a co-director of a teen program,has another explanation.Turn on the TV,and you're showered with news and reality shows full of people fighting,competing,and generally treating one another with no respect.(37)DThere are good reasons not to follow those bad examples.Humans are socially related by nature.(38)GResearchers have also found that empathetic teenagers are more likely to have high self-respect.Besides,empathy can be a cure for loneliness,sadness,anxiety,and fear.
Empathy is also an indication of a good leader.In fact,F(xiàn)reed says,many top companies report that empathy is one of the most important things they look for in new managers.(39)F"Academics are important.But if you don't have emotional (情感的) intelligence,you won't be as successful in work or in your love life,"she says.
What's the best way to up your EQ (情商)?For starters,let down your guard and really listen to others.(40)C
To really develop empathy,you'd better volunteer at a nursing home or a hospital,join a club or a team that has a diverse membership,have a"sharing circle"with your family,or spend time caring for pets at an animal shelter.

A.Everyone is different,and levels of empathy differ from person to person.
B.That could be because so many people have replaced face time with screen time,the researchers said.
C."One doesn't develop empathy by having a lot of opinions and doing a lot of talking,"Freed says.
D.Humans learn by example-and most of the examples on it are anything but empathetic.
E.Empathy is a matte of learning how to understand someone else-both what they think and how they feel.
F.Good social skills-including empathy-are a kind of"emotional intelligence"that will help you succeed in many areas of life.
G.Having relationships with other people is an important part of being human-and having empathy is decisive to those relationships.

分析 本文屬于說明文閱讀,作者通過這篇文章主要向我們描述了empathy,為同感,共鳴.文章以empathy的概念進行展開.文章在第一段對該詞進行了定義,下面進行了簡要的分析.

解答 36.B.推理判斷題.根據(jù)后一句內(nèi)容Today,people spend more time alone and are less likely to join groups and clubs:很多人把時間花在了獨處很少參加社交活動,可知與他人建立關(guān)系是做人的重要組成部分.故選B項.
37.D.推理判斷題.根據(jù)下一段內(nèi)容There are good reasons not to follow those bad examples.Humans are socially related by nature可知是指人們通過模仿別人來學(xué)習(xí),故選D
38.G.推理判斷題.根據(jù)上一句Humans are socially related by nature.可知要和別人保持聯(lián)系;故選G
39.F.推理判斷題.根據(jù)下一句if you don't have emotional intelligence,you won't be as successful in work or in your love life,可知這里是指良好的社交技能是多么的重要;故選F.
40.C.推理判斷題.根據(jù)下一段內(nèi)容To really develop empathy,you'd better volunteer at a nursing home or a hospital,join a club or a team that has a diverse membership可知人類學(xué)習(xí)的榜樣,它的例子大部分是善解人意;故選C

點評 七選五閱讀是完成性閱讀,和完形填空很類似,不同的是一個選詞,一個選句子.解題時,要注意上下文語境,充分考慮信息詞(選項中和空格前后句子中相同或相近的詞),選出最符合語境的句子.

19.High-tech machines have made life easier for millions around the world.However,some people still prefer low-tech ways of doing things.Here's an example of why this is happening.You can microwave a frozen hamburger in 60 seconds.However,it won't taste as good as one you cook on the stove.And if you're in that much of a hurry,you probably won't take time to toast the bun.High-tech cooking saves time,but it doesn't make for better-tasting meals.
Most people get their news from high-tech sources like television or the Internet.This has many advantages.For example,electronic news is more up to date than newspapers or magazines.It's also more exciting to see live and videotaped news events than photographs.However,newspapers and magazines have some important advantages.They give more background and details.They also let you read the parts that are important to you and skip the rest.
Other high-tech time savers have similar disadvantages.For example,most people use the phone or e-mail to stay in touch with friends and family members who live in other places.But when you use the Internet or the phone,you won't always think carefully about what you are saying,and sometimes you forget the important things you want to communicate.Similarly,when you word-process a homework assignment instead of handwriting it,you can check your spelling electronically and put in fancy headings.However,some students are so busy with the computer that they don't pay enough attention to the actual words they are writing.

29.What do we know about high-tech cooking?D
A.It can't make much food.
B.It is popular with every family.
C.It makes food slower than low-tech cooking.
D.It can't make food as delicious as low-tech cooking.
30.What is an advantage of the news in newspapers compared to that on the Internet?C
A.Quick updates.B.Live news events.C.Detailed information.D.Convenient news sources.
31.Which of the following proverbs can summarize the text?C
A.Easy come,easy go.
B.Better late than never.
C.Every coin has two sides.
D.I.earn to walk before you run.

8.It's generally believed that people act the way they do because of their personalities and attitudes.They recycle their garbage because they care about the environment.They pay $5 for a caramel brulée latte because they like expensive coffee drinks.
It's undeniable that behavior comes from our inner dispositions(性情),but in many instances we also draw inferences about who we are,as suggested by the social psychologist Daryl Bern,by observing our own behavior.We can be strangers to ourselves.If we knew our own minds,why would we need to guess what our preferences are from our behavior?If our minds were an open book,we would know exactly how much we care about the environment or like lattes.Actually,we often need to look to our behavior to figure out who we are.
Moreover,we don't just use our behavior to learn about our particular types of character-we infer characters that weren't there before.Our behavior is often shaped by little pressures around us,which we fail to recognize.Maybe we recycle because our wives and neighbors would disapprove if we didn't.Maybe we buy lattes in order to impress the people around us.We should not believe that we always behave as a result of some inner disposition.
Whatever pressures there can be or inferences one can make,people become what they do,though it may not be in compliance(符合)with their true desires.Therefore,we should all bear in mind Kurt Vonnegut's advice:"We are what we pretend to be,so we must be careful about what we pretend to be."

12.According to the passage,personalities and attitudes are commonly believed toA
A.determine one's behavior
B.reflect one's taste
C.influence one's surroundings
D.result from one's habits
13.Which of the following would Daryl Bern most probably agree with?D
A.A kind person will offer his seat to the old.
B.One buys latte out of true love of coffee.
C.One recycles plastics to protect the environment.
D.The return of a wallet can indicate one's honesty.
14.What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in the passage?B
A.We fail to realize our inner dispositions.
B.We can be influenced by outside pressures.
C.Our behavior is the result of our true desires.
D.Our characters can shape our social relationships.
15.What does the author mainly discuss in the passage?C
A.Personalities and attitudes.
B.Preferences and habits.
C.Behavior and personalities.
D.Attitudes and preferences.
