35、#160;37 - 41 Passage 1    Communications technologies are far from equal when it comes to conveying the truth. The first study to compare honesty across a range of communications media has found that people are twice as likely to tell lies in phone conversations as

36、 they are in emails. The fact that emails are automatically recorded-and can come back to haunt (困擾) you-appears to be the key to the finding.     Jeff Hancock of Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, asked 30 students to keep a communications diary for a week. In it they noted

37、 the number of conversations or email exchanges they had lasting more than 10 minutes, and confessed to how many lies they told. Hancock then worked out the number of lies per conversation for each medium. He found that lies made up 14 per cent of emails, 21 per cent of instant messages, 27 per cent

38、 of face-to-face interactions and an astonishing 37 per cent of phone calls.     His results, to be presented at the conference on human-computer interaction in Vienna, Austria, in April, have surprised psychologists. Some expected emailers to be the biggest liars, reasoning that

39、 because deception makes people uncomfortable, the detachment (非直接接觸) of emailing would make it easier to lie. Others expected people to lie more in face-to-face exchanges because we are most practised at that form of communication.     But Hancock says it is also crucial whether

40、 a conversation is being recorded and could be reread, and whether it occurs in real time. People appear to be afraid to lie when they know the communication could later be used to hold them to account, he says. This is why fewer lies appear in email than on the phone.      Peopl

41、e are also more likely to lie in real time-in an instant message or phone call, say-than if they have time to think of a response, says Hancock. He found many lies are spontaneous (脫口而出的) responses to an unexpected demand, such as: "Do you like my dress?"     Hancock ho

42、pes his research will help companies work out the best ways for their employees to communicate. For instance, the phone might be the best medium for sales where employees are encouraged to stretch the truth. But given his results, work assessment, where honesty is a priority, might be best done usin

44、cross a range of communications media【參考答案】：D【學(xué)生得分】：2.0【題目解析】：答案可在第1段第2句中找到。這句話意為：比較在使用多種交流媒介時(shí)誠實(shí)程度的第一項(xiàng)研究發(fā)現(xiàn)人們在電話中說謊的可能性是在電子郵件中的兩倍。這里提到的研究就是Hancock的研究。故選項(xiàng)D(在多種交流媒介中人們的誠實(shí)程度)是答案。 38. Hancock's research finding surprised those who believed that _.A  people are less likely to lie in ins

46、件因不需要直接接觸會(huì)使撒謊變得容易一些。故選項(xiàng)C(人們在電子郵件交流中最可能撒謊)是答案。 39. According to the passage, why are people more likely to tell the truth through certain media of communication? _A  They are afraid of leaving behind traces of their lies.B  They believe that honesty is the best policy.C  They

47、 tend to be relaxed when using those media.D  They are most practised at those forms of communication.【參考答案】：A【學(xué)生得分】：2.0【題目解析】：答案可在第4段第2、3句中找到。這兩句意為：如果知道交流的內(nèi)容事后能被用來要求他們解釋，人們似乎就害怕撒謊。這就是為什么電子郵件中的謊言比電話中少的原因。選項(xiàng)A(他們害怕留下撒謊的痕跡)正確。 40. According to Hancock, the telephone is a preferable mediu

50、ferent communication purposesD  email is now the dominant medium of communication within a company【參考答案】：C【學(xué)生得分】：2.0【題目解析】：答案在第6段。這段的最后兩句舉了兩個(gè)例子：推銷最好用電話這個(gè)媒介以誠實(shí)為重的工作評(píng)估最好用電子郵件。由此可見，選項(xiàng)C(針對(duì)不同的交流目的，應(yīng)選擇恰當(dāng)?shù)拿浇?為正確選擇。 題 42 - 46 Passage 2    In a country that d

53、id the undocumented workers' illegal status made them open to blackmail (訛詐) by terrorists.     Many immigrants in Salt Lake City were angered by the arrests and said they felt as if they were being treated like disposable goods.     Mayor Anderson said th

54、ose feelings were justified to a certain extent. "We're saying we want you to work in these places, we're going to look the other way in terms of what our laws are, and then when it's convenient for us, or when we can try to make a point in terms of national security, especially aft

56、finitely. Ana Castro, a manager at a Ben & Jerry's ice cream shop at the airport, had been working 10 years with the same false Social Security card when she was arrested in the December airport raid. Now she and her family are living under the threat of deportation (驅(qū)逐出境). Castro's case

57、 is currently waiting to be settled. While she awaits the outcome, the government has granted her permission to work here and she has returned to her job at Ben & Jerry's.× 42. According to the author, the United States claims to be a nation _.A  composed of people having

58、 different valuesB  encouraging individual pursuitsC  sharing common interestsD  founded on shared ideals【參考答案】：D【學(xué)生得分】：0.0【題目解析】：答案可從第l段第1句推出，該句意為：在一個(gè)不以共同血緣而以理想為紐帶的國家中，誰應(yīng)該被允許入境，在這里工作、生活?可推知選項(xiàng)D(建立在共同理想之上)為正確選擇。這里define意為“為的特性，是的特色”。× 43. How did the immigrants in Salt L

59、ake City feel about "Operation Safe Travel"? _A  Guilty.B  Offended.C  Disappointed.D  Discouraged.【參考答案】：B【學(xué)生得分】：0.0【題目解析】：答案在第3段，該段大意為：鹽湖城的許多移民對(duì)這些逮捕事件感到憤怒說他們感到自己仿佛遭到了處理商品一樣的待遇。解本題的關(guān)鍵是知道offended和angered是同義詞。× 44. Undocumented workers became the target of

61、nd the airport【參考答案】：C【學(xué)生得分】：0.0【題目解析】：答案在第2段最后一句，該句意為：當(dāng)局說，沒有證件的工人身份不合法，容易受到恐怖分子的訛詐。選項(xiàng)C(恐怖分子可能會(huì)利用他們的非法身份)完全符合這句話的意思。× 45. By saying ". we're going to look the other way in terms of what our laws are" (Line 2, Para. 4), Mayor Anderson means _.A  we will turn a blind

62、eye to your illegal statusB  we will examine the laws in a different wayC  there are other ways of enforcing the lawD  the existing laws must not be ignored【參考答案】：C【學(xué)生得分】：0.0【題目解析】：本題極難，難度超過往年考過的語義題。唯一的提示是第四段開頭一句：Anderson市長說這些感覺在某種程度上是有道理的。據(jù)此可以認(rèn)為市長是同情這些移民的遭遇的。然后援引市長原話：“有事實(shí)法律的其他方法”，也就是

63、說還可以有變通的方法。A項(xiàng)“我們將對(duì)你們非法身份熟視無睹”，市長盡管抱有同情態(tài)度，但這樣說顯然過了。B項(xiàng)“我們將以一種不同方法審視法律”，文章講述的不是法律審視層面，而是法律的實(shí)施層面。D項(xiàng)“現(xiàn)有法律不得被忽視”，也就是說完全照章辦事，顯然和市長的原意不吻合。所以A，B，D三項(xiàng)都不是恰當(dāng)?shù)倪x擇。× 46. What do we learn about Ana Castro from the last paragraph? _A  She will be deported sooner or later.B  She is allowed to stay permanently.C  Her case has been dropped.D  Her fate remains uncertain.【參考答案】：D【學(xué)生得分】：0.0【題目解析】：答案在文章最后三句，這三句話的大意為：目前，她及家人生活在被驅(qū)逐出境的威脅中。Castro一案目前正等待解決。在等待結(jié)果期間，政府給予了她工作許可。她已經(jīng)回到Ben&Jerrys冷飲店工作。由此可推斷選項(xiàng)D(她的命運(yùn)仍然未定)正確。快速閱讀 &
