18、ed as the leader of social group in the United States. In the family, traditional cultural patterns confer leadership on one or both of the parents. In other cases, such as friendship group, one or more persons may gradually emerge as leaders, although there is no formal process of selection. In lar

19、ger groups, leaders are usually chosen formally through election or recruitment. Although leaders are often thought to be people with unusual personal ability, decades of research have failed to produce consistent evidence that there is any category of “natural leaders“. It seems that there is no se

20、t of personal qualities that all leaders have in common; rather, virtually any person may be recognized as a leader if the person has qualities that meet the needs of that particular group. Furthermore, although it is commonly supposed that social groups have a single leader, research suggests that

21、there are typically two different leadership roles that are held by different individuals. Instrumental leadership is leadership that emphasizes the completion of tasks by a social group. Group members look to instrumental leaders to “get things done“. Expressive leadership, on the other hand, is le

22、adership that emphasizes the collective well-being of a social groups members. Expressive leaders are less concerned with the overall goals of the group than with providing emotional support to group menbers and attempting to minimize tension and conflict among them. Group members expect expressive

23、leaders to maintain stable relationships within the group and provide support to individual members. Instrumental leaders are likely to have a rather secondary relationship to other group members. They give orders and may discipline group members who inhibit attainment of the groups goals. Expressiv

24、e leaders cultivate a more personal or primary relationship to others in the group. They offer sympathy when someone experiences difficulties or is subjected to discipline, are quick to lighten a serious moment with humor, and try to resolve issues that threaten to divide the group. As the differenc

25、es in these two roles suggest, expressive leaders generally receive more personal affection from group members; instrumental leaders, if they are successful in promoting group goals, may enjoy a more distant respect.（分数：10.00）(1).What does the passage mainly discuss?（分数：2.00）A.The problems faced by

It comes to us from the time called the Middle Ages in Europe. Religious groups then provided hospice as a place where traveler cou

31、ld stay. Sometimes the groups also offered a place for the sick and the dying. Today the word hospice means more than a place. It means a way of caring for the dying. In the modern sense of the word, it means that, if possible, dying people can receive care at home during their last days; and the he

32、alth-care workers do not try to lengthen the lives of the dying with modern medical equipment. Instead, care-givers make every effort to control or stop the patients pain. It also means that patients get help for their emotional needs in addition to their physical needs. A British woman Cicely Saund

33、ers was the first major activist for hospice care in modern times. Cicely Saunders worked as a nurse in a hospital right after World War II , where she met a man who was dying of cancer. Together they found ideas about the best possible treatment for people who would never get well again. They talke

34、d about treatments that would permit patients to discuss their feelings and to take part in activities meaningful to them. They planned a system that would allow dying people to be surrounded by the people and things they loved most. The dying man gave Cicely Saunders enough money to study to become

35、 a doctor. By 1967 Dr. Saunders had organized and opened St. Christophers Hospice in London. In 1974, after the Americas first hospice started in New Haven, others followed suit in cities throughout the country. Organizers had a difficult job. They had to teach the public about the idea of hospice.

36、They had to get money from companies, religious groups and citizens. And they had to negotiate with local govermments to use public money to care for the dying. Thanks to their unyielding determination and painstaking efforts, hospice has grown in America. Dr. Jo Magno, the President of the National

37、 Hospice Organization, said that working with the dying occasionally made her sad.

42、rt.C.Many people readily accepted the new idea.D.Local governments forbade what they did.What we today call America folk art was, indeed, art of, by, and for ordinary, everyday “folks“ who, with increasing prosperity and leisure, created a market for art of all kinds, and especially for portraits. C

43、itizens of prosperous, essentially middel-class republicswhether ancient Romans, seventeenth-century Dutch burghers, or nineteenth-century Americanshave always shown a marked taste for portraiture. Starting in the late eighteenth century, the United States contained increasing numbers of such people

44、, and of the artists how could meet their demands. The earliest American folk art portraits come, not surpisingly, form New Englandespecially Connecticut and Massachusettsfor this was a wealthy and populous region and the center of a strong craft tradition. Within a few decades after the singning of

45、 the Declaration of Independence in 1776, the population was pushing westward, and Missouri. Midway through its first century as a nation, the United States population had increased roughly five times, and eleven new states had been added to the original thirteen. During these years the demand for p

46、ortraits grew and grew, eventually to be satisfied by the camera. In 1839 the daguerreotype was introduced to America, ushering in the age of photography, and within a generation the new invention put an end to the popularity of painted portraits. Once again an original portrait became a luxury, com

47、missioned by the wealthy and executed by the professional. But in the heyday of portrait painting-from the late eighteenth century until the 1850sanyone with a modicum of artistic ability could become a limner, as such a portaitist was called. Local craftspeople-sign, coach, and house paintersbegan

48、to paint portraits as a profitable sideline; sometimes a talented man or woman who began by sketching family members gained a local reputation and was besieged with requests for portraits; artists found it worth their while to pack their paints, canvases, and brushes and to travel the countryside, o

49、ften combining house decorating with portrait painting.（分数：10.00）(1).In lines 3-5 the author mentions seventeenth-century Dutch burghers as an example of a group that（分数：2.00）A.consisted mainly of self-taught artistsB.appreciated portraitsC.influenced American folk artD.had little time for the arts(2).According to the passage, where were many of the first American folk art portaits painted?（分数：2.00）
