Question

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)，選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。（共5小題：每小題2分，滿分10分）
Empathy （共鳴）
Last 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. __【小題1】__ Today, 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. __【小題2】__
There are good reasons not to follow those bad examples. Humans are socially related by nature. __【小題3】__ Researchers 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, Freed says, many top companies report that empathy is one of the most important things they look for in new managers. __【小題4】__ “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. __【小題5】__
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.
Everyone is different, and levels of empathy differ from person to person.
That could be because so many people have replaced face time with screen time, the researchers said.
“One doesn’t develop empathy by having a lot of opinions and doing a lot of  talking,” Freed says.
Humans learn by example—and most of the examples on it are anything but empathetic.
Empathy is a matter of learning how to understand someone else—both what they think and how they feel.
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.

【小題4】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，選F。

考點(diǎn)：考查學(xué)生對(duì)語(yǔ)篇上下文的理解能力以及還原信息的能力。
點(diǎn)評(píng)：這類題主要要求學(xué)生能理解文章主旨和作者意圖；能通過(guò)上下文克服生詞困難，理解語(yǔ)篇意義；能通過(guò)文章中的線索進(jìn)行推理。這就要求教師在教學(xué)中注重對(duì)學(xué)生這方面能力的訓(xùn)練。
