33、ng.Besides developing a theoretical foundation for the study of social groups, Durkheim also conducted research de- signed to corroborate his theoretical work. Using landmark research methods, Durkheim collected and analyzed data from a number of countries that kept records on suicides. He wanted to

34、 show that social environment may have a profound effect even on those behaviors we consider most personal. The results of his study showed that suicide rates do indeed vary according to specific social characteristics. For example, Durkheim found that members of religions with strong prohibitions a

35、gainst suicide are less likely to commit suicide than are members of religious groups with weaker prohibitions. He also found a lower incidence of suicide among married persons than among persons who were single or divorced. Taken together, the findings of Durkheim s study provided convincing eviden

36、ce that social groups do indeed exert pressures that control or regulate the behavior of individuals, including deeply personal behaviors.Durkheim s rigorous research methods captured the attention of sociologists around the world, and were perhaps even more important to the future development of so

37、ciology than any specific research results could be. Within a short time, his specific approach to formulating and testing social theory became a model that guided the work of nearly all sociologists. This assured Emile Durkheim a lasting place as one of the key figures in the history of sociology.9

38、4 Which of the following best expresses the main idea of the selection?（A）Both the social group theory and the scientific research methods developed by Durkheim have contributed much to the field of sociology.（B） Durkheim believed that individual members of a group strongly influence the group s way

39、s of thinking, feeling, and behaving.（C） The research study conducted by Durkheim provided strong evidence that suicide rates vary among members of different social groups.（D）Through his research, Durkheim made great strides in distinguishing sociology from psychology.95 The writers main purpose in

40、writing this selection is to_.（A）outline the steps Durkheim followed in conducting his research study（B） describe the ways in which Durkheim s work has influenced sociology（C） persuade the reader that social groups control most of the behaviors of their individual members（D）explain the differences b

41、etween sociology and psychology96 According to the selection, how do sociologists and psychologists differ?（A）Sociologists are more concerned with explaining behavior than are psychologists.（B） Psychologists focus more on individuals than do sociologists.（C） Sociologists spend more time helping peop

42、le solve their problems than do psychologists.（D）Psychologists are more interested in understanding patterns of human relationships than are sociologists.97 In comparing social groups to bronze, Durkheim wished to illustrate the idea that_.（A）a social group has characteristics that differ from those of its individual members（B） social groups are made up of three major component parts acting together（C） each social group is a unique entity that is unlike any other social group（D）social groups are extremely difficult to break apart once they have been formed
