In an experiment, volunteers were asked fbr their opinions about a series of advertisements. A member of a research team mirrored half the participants, taking care not to be too obvious. A few minutes later, the researcher "accidentaHy“ dropped six pens on the floor. Participants who had been mimicked were two to three times more likely to pick up the pens. The study concluded that mimicry had not only increased goodwill towards the researcher, but also contributed to an increased social orientation (取向)in general.If you want to know how to figure out if a person is looking at you, just throw out some kinds of gestures and see who copies you. But not everyone uses mirroring to figure out who's making eyes at who. My years of experience of analyzing the messages sent consciously and unconsciously by the human body has left me with particularly good powers of observation. However, the average person has not had the same chance to improve this skill.Of course, once you've figured out who's watching you, it's up to you and the watcher to decide what happens next. Not everybody watches with intent or enjoys getting hit on in public, so knowing how to react properly is very necessary.12. What can we learn about mirroring from Paragraph 2?A. It can benefit communication.B. It helps people get out of bad habits.C. People find it hard to apply at work.D. Psychologists just started researching it recently.13. What does the result of the study in Paragraph 3 show about purposeful mirroring?A. It is beneficial for building teamwork.B. It makes interaction partners less active.C. It makes interaction partners more confused.D. It has positive influences on interaction partners.14. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?A. Some people have doubts about the effects of mirroring.B. It is unnecessary for average people to master the skills of mirroring.C. The author can use mirroring to read people's body language well.D. Average people lack the good ability to observe their sun*oundings.15. What would the author probably like to talk about in the next paragraph?A. Ways to draw people's attention in public.B. Reasons for people hating being watched by others.C. Advice on dealing with situations where you are watched.D. The importance of paying attention to one's body language.【答案】12.A13. D 14. C 15. C【解析】【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章论述了对镜像这一策略的研究。【12题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段中 “It's long been used as a strategy that successful people can employ strategically to show their engagement (参与度)during job interviews or at work. They believe when done on purpose, mirroring can help people understand each other's ideas or feelings very well.(长期以来,这一策略一直被成功人士用来在 面试或工作中有策略地展示自己 敬业精神。他们相信,如果是有意为之,镜像可以帮助人们更好地理解 彼此的想法或感受)”可知,长期以来,这一策略一直被使用,被人们认为可以帮助人们更好地理解彼此的 想法或感受。故选A。【13题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段中 “In an experiment, volunteers were asked for their opinions about a series of advertisements. A member of a research team mirrored half the participants, taking care not to be too obvious. A few minutes later, the researcher "accidentally“ dropped six pens on the floor. Participants who had been mimicked were two to three times more likely to pick up the pens.The study concluded that mimicry had not only increased goodwill towards the researcher, but also contributed to an increased social orientation (取向)in general.(在一个实验中,志 愿者被问及他们对一系列广告的看法。一个研究小组的成员模仿了一半的参与者,注意不要太明显。几分 钟后,研究人员“不小心”把六支钢笔掉在了地板上。被模仿的参与者拿起钢笔的可能性是其他人的两到 三倍。研究得出结论,模仿不仅增加了对研究人员的好感,而且有助于增加一般的社会取向)”可知,研究 结果表明,有意的模仿对其他的成员会有积极的影响。故选D。【14题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段“If you want to know how to figure out if a person is looking at you, just throw out some kinds of gestures and see who copies you. But not everyone uses mirroring to figure out who's making eyes at who. My years of experience of analyzing the messages sent consciously and unconsciously by the human body has left me with particularly good powers of observation. However, the average person has not had the same chance to improve this skill.(如果你想知道如何判断一个人是否在看着你,只要抛出一些手势,看看谁在模仿你。但不 是每个人都用镜子来分辨谁在看谁。我多年来分析人体有意识和无意识发出的信息的经验使我具有特别好 的观察力。然而,一般人没有同样的机会来提高这项技能)”可知,作者有着人体有意识和无意识发出的信 息的经验,使得作者具有特别好的观察力。可推知,作者通过观察人们的行为,可以解读人们的肢体语言。 选项C. “作者能够很好地运用镜像来解读人们的肢体语言符合题意,故选C。【15题详解】推理判断题。根据最后段 “Of course, once you9ve figured out who's watching you, ifs up to you and the watcher to decide what happens next. Not everybody watches with intent or enjoys getting hit on in public, so knowing how to react properly is very necessary当然,一旦你知道谁在监视你,接下来会发生什么就取决于 你和监视者了。不是每个人都有目的地观看或喜欢在公共场合被搭讪,所以知道如何正确反应是非常必要 的)”可知,这里提出了要知道对于监视该如何正确反应,因而接下来的段落应该描述相关的建议。选项 C ”处理被看着的情况的建议”,符合题意,故选C。第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。False Memories or Parallel (平行的)Realities?Here is a common situation: You're talking with someone about an event, only to discover that you both remember things quite differently. Usually, you'd put it down to a poor memory, but what if it wasn't just one person who remembered things differently? What if it was millions?In fact, this isn't a "what if, situation. It9s known as the Mandela Effect, and it was first noticed in 2009 by paranormal researcher Fiona Broome. Broome was chatting with people about the South African activist Nelson Mandela, and she commented how sad it was that he had died in prison in the 1980s.16 Actually, he'd beenreleased in 1990, become president of South Africa, and died in 2013.Broome was so shocked at this that she started an investigation. 17 People have memories of movies that never existed, and famous words that were never spoken. There is even a group who clearly recall seeing maps showing that New Zealand was northeast of Australia (it's southeast). So what in the world is going on?18 In each reality, history is shaped by different events, and the Mandela Effect occurs when some of us shift from one reality to another. Therefore, those who remember Nelson Mandela dying in the 1980s aren't wrong. They9re just remembering events from their original reality.More likely, however, is that the Mandela Effect has to do with how our brains store information. 19 Many people remember Pikachu's tail having a black tip on the end of it, when in fact it was always yellow. "Aha!" you cry. "Parallel realitiesProbably not. Consider instead that people often ignore unfamiliar details and transform information to make it more understandable. In the Pikachu example, his tail may not have a black tip, but his ears certainly do. Thus, both his ears and tail are misremembered as having black tips. 20All things considered, if you, re stuck arguing win someone about whose version of events is correct, it may indeed be easier to agree that neither of you is wrong. You just come from different realities.A. Before we explain let's look at an example.B. It turns out she wasn't the only one who'd experienced this.C. If several people make these memory errors, the false memory gets stronger socially.D. The story of Nelson Mandela is not the only example of this type of false group memory.E. Some claim the Mandela Effect happens because we live in one of many parallel realities.F. Many in her group agreed, while others mentioned that Nelson Mandela had not died in prison.G. As more incidents of the Mandela effect continue to occur, perhaps more research into the origins will tell us the causes.【答案】16.F17. D 18. E 19. A 20. C【解析】【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了曼德拉效应的发现以及相关研究和其产生的原因。【16题详解】上文 u Broome was chatting with people about the South African activist Nelson Mandela, and she commented how sad it was that he had died in prison in the 1980s (布鲁姆和人们聊起了南非社会活动家纳尔逊曼德拉,她说 曼德拉在20世纪80年代死于狱中是多么令人悲伤说明在布鲁姆记忆中曼德拉80年代死于狱中,下文 u Actually, he'd been released in 1990, become president of South Africa, and died in 2013.(实际上,他在 1990 年被释放,成为南非总统,并于2013年去世。)”说明事实上曼德拉并不像布鲁姆记忆中的那样死于狱中, F 项 “ Many in her group agreed, while others mentioned that Nelson Mandela had not died in prison.(她所在小组 的很多人都同意这一观点,而其他人则提到,纳尔逊曼德拉并没有死在监狱里说明对曼德拉死亡时 间这件事情的两种不同的观点,承上启下,符合语境。故选F项。【17题详解】下文“ People have memories of movies that never existed, and famous words that were never spoken.
