Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them, there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark the cor

21、responding letter with a single bar across the square brackets on your machine-scoring BANSWER SHEET/B./IBPassage One/BSometimes its just hard to choose. Youre in a restaurant, and the waiter has his pen at the ready. As you hesitate, he gradually begins to take a close interest in the ceiling, his

22、fingernails, then in your dining partner. Each dish on the menu becomes a blur as you roll your eyes up and down in a growing panic. Finally, you desperately opt for something that turns out to be what you hate.It seems that we need devices to protect us from our hopelessness at deciding between 57

23、barely differentiated varieties of stuff-be they TV channels, gourmet coffee, downloadable ring tones, or perhaps, ultimately even interchangeable lovers. This thought is opposed to our governments philosophy, which suggests that greater choice over railways, electricity suppliers and education will

24、 make us happy. In my experience, they do anything but.Perhaps the happiest people are those who do not have much choice and arent confronted by the misery of endless choice. True, that misery may not be obvious to people who dont have a variety of luxuries. If you live in Madagascar, say, where ave

25、rage life expectancy is below 40 and they dont have digital TV or Starbucks, you might not be impressed by the anxiety and perpetual stress our decision - making paralysis causes.Choice wasnt supposed to make people miserable. It was supposed to be the hallmark of self-determination that we so cheri

26、sh in capitalist western society. But it obviously isnt: ever more choice increases the feeling of missed opportunities, and this leads to self-blame when choices fail to meet expectations. What is to be done? A new book by an American social scientist, Barry Schwartz, called IThe Paradox of Choice/

27、I, suggests that reducing choices can limit anxiety.Schwartz offers a self-help guide to good decision making that helps us to limit our choices to a manageable number, and ultimately derive greater satisfaction from the choices we make. This is a capitalist response to a capitalist problem.But once

28、 you realize that your Schwartzian filters are depriving you of something you might have found enjoyable, you will experience the same anxiety as before, worrying that you made the wrong decision in drawing up your choice-limiting filters. Arguably, we will always be doomed to buyers-remorse and the

29、 misery it entails. The problem of choice is perhaps more difficult than Schwartz allows.（分数：6.00）(1).The waiter mentioned in Paragraph 1 would agree that given a variety of choice_.（分数：1.00）A.it is common for his customer to hesitate in ordering a mealB.it is impolite for his customer to order with

30、 hesitationC.it is difficult for his customer to expect quality foodD.it is possible to get know his customers partner(2).It is implied that it is the governments intention to_.（分数：1.00）A.improve the quality of TV programsB.try to offer greater choice over public service systemsC.make people realize

31、 that some lovers are interchangeableD.encourage the downloading of a variety of ring tones(3).We can infer that the authors attitude towards choice is that_.（分数：1.00）A.the more choice we have, the more freedom we can enjoyB.endless choice has only made us more miserableC.it is easy for people to ma

32、ke a wrong decision with few choicesD.before we make decisions, we want as many choices as possible(4).The author mentioned “Starbucks“ in Paragraph 3 as an illustration of_.（分数：1.00）A.happinessB.low life expectancyC.perpetual stressD.luxury(5).From Barry Schwartzs book, The Paradox of Choice, we ca

33、n get recommendation tips on_.（分数：1.00）A.how to handle the situation of capitalist exploitationB.how to deal with your expense budgetC.how to avoid the feeling of missed opportunitiesD.how to save money by making a right choice(6).We may conclude that it is NOT one of the authors purposes to_.（分数：1.

34、00）A.stress the problem of choiceB.discuss decision-making paralysisC.make an analysis of buyers-remorseD.promote the new book, Tile Paradox of ChoiceBPassage Two/BAccording to a survey, which was based on the responses of over 188,000 students, todays traditional-age college freshmen are “more mate

35、rialistic and less altruistic (利他主义的) than at any time in the 17 years of the poll.Not surprising in these hard times, the students major objective “is to be financially well off. Less important than ever is developing a meaningful philosophy of life.“ It follows then that today the most popular cou

36、rse is not literature or history but accounting.Interest in teaching, social service and the “altruistic“ fields is at a low. On the other hand, enrollment in business programs, engineering and computer science is way up.Thats no surprise either. A friend of mine (a sales representative for a chemic

37、al company) was making twice the salary of her college instructors in her first year on the jobeven before she completed her two-year associate degree.While its true that we all need a career, it is equally true that our civilization has accumulated an incredible amount of knowledge in fields far re

38、moved from our own and that we are better for our understanding of these other contributionsbe the scientific or artistic. It is equally true that, in studying the diverse wisdom of others, we learn how to think. More important, perhaps, education teaches us to see the connections between things, as

39、 well as to see beyond our immediate needs.Weekly we read of unions who went on strike for higher wages, only to drive their employer out of business. No company; no job. How shortsighted in the long run.But the most important argument for a broad education is that in studying the accumulated wisdom

40、 of ages, we improve our moral sense. I saw a cartoon recently which shows a group o businessmen looking puzzled as they sit around a conference table; one of them is talking on the intercom (对讲机) : “Miss Baxter,“ he says, “could you please send in someone who can distinguish right from wrong?“From

41、the long-term point of view, thats what education really ought to be about.（分数：6.00）(1).According to the authors observation, college students_.（分数：1.00）A.have never been so materialistic as todayB.have never been so interested in artsC.have never been so financially well off as todayD.have never at

42、tached so much importance to moral sense(2).The students criteria for selecting majors today have much to do with_.（分数：1.00）A.the influence o their instructorsB.the financial goals they seek in lifeC.their own interpretations of the coursesD.their understanding of the contributions of others(3).By s

43、aying “While its true that, be the scientific or artistic“ (Lines 14, Para.5), the author means that_.（分数：1.00）A.business management should be included in educational programsB.human wisdom has accumulated at an extraordinarily high speedC.human intellectual development has reached new heightsD.the

44、importance of a broad education should not be overlooked(4).Studying the diverse wisdom of others can_.（分数：1.00）A.create varying artistic interestsB.help people see things in their right perspectiveC.help improve connections among peopleD.regulate the behavior of modern people(5).Which of the follow

45、ing statements is TRUE according to the passage?（分数：1.00）A.Businessmen absorbed in their career are narrow-minded.B.Managers often find it hard to tell right from wrong.C.People engaged in technical jobs lead a more rewarding life.D.Career seekers should not focus on immediate interests only.(6).Wha

46、t is the authors attitude towards the strike for higher wages?（分数：1.00）A.Neutral.B.Indifferent.C.Disagreeable.D.Critical.BPassage Three/BPublic speaking fills most people with dread. Humiliation is the greatest fear; serf-exposure and failing to appeal to the audience come a close second. Women hate

47、 it most, since girls are pressurized from an early age to be concerned with appearances of all kinds.Most people have plenty of insecurities, and this seems like a situation that will bring them out. If parents, teachers or peers mocked your foibles as a child, you fear a repeat. If you were under

48、pressure to be perfect, you are terrified of failing in the most public of ways.While extroverts will feel less fear before the ordeal, it does not mean they will necessarily do it better. Some very shy people manage to shine. In fact, personality is not the best predictor of who does it well. Regar

49、dless of what you are like in real life, the key seems to be to act yourself.Actual acting, as in performing the scripted lines of a character other than yourself, does not do the job. While politicians may limit damage by having carefully rehearsed, written screeds to speak from, there is always a hidden awareness among the aud
