20.According to sociologists,there are several different ways in which a person may become recognized as the leader of a social group in the United States.In the fanfily traditional cultural patterns confer (~z~,) leadership on one or both of the parents.In other cases,such as friendship groups,one or more persons may gradually emerge as leaders,although there is no formal process of selection.In larger 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 set 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 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 leadership that emphasizes the collective well-beings of a social group's members.Expressive leaders are less concerned with the overall goals of the group than with providing emotional support to group members and attempting to minimize tension and conflict among them.Group members expect expressive 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 prohibit attainment (達到) of the group's goals.Expressive 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 difference in these two roles suggests,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.

72.Which of the following statements about leadership can be inferred from paragraph 2?B
A.Few people succeed in sharing a leadership role with another person.
B.A person who is an effective leader of a particular group may not be an effective leader in another group.
C.A person can best learn how to be an effective leader by studying research on leadership.
D.Most people desire to be leaders but can produce little evidence of their qualifications.
73.The passage indicates that instrumental leaders generally focus onC.
A.ensuring harmonious relationships
B.sharing responsibility with group members
C.a(chǎn)chieving a goal
D.identifying new leaders
74.A"secondary relationship"between a leader and the members of a group could best be described asA.
A.distant                              B.enthusiastic
C.sympathetic                          D.personal
75.What does the passage mainly discuss?D
A.The problems faced by leaders.
B.How leadership differs in small and large groups.
C.How social groups determine who will lead them.
D.The role of leaders in social groups.

分析 本文是一篇科教類閱讀,主要討論不同的領(lǐng)導者(如instrumental leaders以及expressive leaders)在不同的社會群體中所充當?shù)慕巧桶l(fā)揮的功能.

解答 BCAD
72.B  推斷題.根據(jù)文章第二段(It seems…virtually any person may be recognized as a leader if the person has qualities that meet the needs of that particular group).可知某一特定群體的有效領(lǐng)導者,不一定就可以成為另一群體的有效領(lǐng)導者.這正好與第二段的意思相吻合,即領(lǐng)導者沒有一個固定的特點,只是符合了一個特定群體需要的人就有可能成為該群體的領(lǐng)導者,故選B.
73   C  細節(jié)題.第三、四段.(Expressive leaders are less concerned with the overall goals of the group than with providing emotional support to group members and attempting to minimize tension and conflict among them.) 主要講了兩種類型的領(lǐng)導者的區(qū)別.其中instrumental leader側(cè)重于群體目標的實現(xiàn),而expressive leader相對于前者并不側(cè)重于群體目標的實現(xiàn),而是注重為群體成員提供情感支持,并盡力減少內(nèi)部紛爭,故選C.
74   A   猜測詞義題.  根據(jù)文章第三 段Group members expect expressive 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. 可知領(lǐng)導者與成員之間的二次元關(guān)系表示他們是有差距的,故選A.
75   D   主旨題.本篇主要討論不同的領(lǐng)導者(如instrumental leaders以及expressive leaders)在不同的社會群體中所充當?shù)慕巧桶l(fā)揮的功能.所以D為正確答案.A、B、C選項都不能正確概括本文主旨.

點評 考察學生的細節(jié)理解和推理判斷能力,做細節(jié)理解題時一定要找到文章中的原句,和題干進行比較,再做出正確的選擇.在做推理判斷題不要以個人的主觀想象代替文章的事實,要根據(jù)文章事實進行合乎邏輯的推理判斷.

11.Automation refers to the introduction of electronic control and automatic operation of productive machinery.It reduces the human factors,mental and physical,in production,and is designed to make possible the manufacture of more goods with fewer workers.The development of automation in American industry has been called the"Second Industrial Revolution".
Labour's concern over automation arises from uncertainty about the effects on employment,and fears of major changes in jobs.In the main,labour has taken the view that resistance to technical change is unfruitful.Eventually,the result of automation may well be an increase in employment,since it is expected that vast industries will grow up around manufacturing,maintaining,and repairing automation equipment.The interest of labour lies in bringing about the transition with a minimum of inconvenience and distress to the workers involved.Also,union spokesmen emphasize that the benefit of the increased production and lower costs made possible by automation should be shared by workers in the form of higher wages,more leisure,and improved living standards.
To protect the interests of their members in the era of automation,unions have adopted a number of new policies.One of these is the promotion of supplementary unemployment benefit plans.It is emphasized that since the employer involved in such a plan has a direct financial interest in preventing unemployment,he will have a strong drive for planning new installations so as to cause the least possible problems in jobs and job assignments.Some unions are working for dismissal pay agreements,requiring that permanently dismissed workers be paid a sum of money based on length of service.Another approach is the idea of the"improvement factor",which calls for wage increases based on increases in productivity.It is possible,however,that labour will rely mainly on reduction in working hours in order to gain a full share in the fruits of automation.(in no more than 8 words)
78.Automation makes it possible tomanufacture more goods with fewer workers.
79.At first,two things people worried about automation wereeffect on employment and major changes in jobs
80.According to union spokesmen,the workers benefit from automation in terms ofwages,leisure hours and living standards
81.What is the last passage mainly talking about?Union's policy concerning the protection of union members.

15.Bar codes are one way that the U.S.Postal Service streamlines mail of the wrong hands.A letter that comes without a bar code or cancelled stamp might not have been processed by the U.S.Postal Service and it might indicate that something's fishy.(可疑的)Can you decode a bar code the way the U.S.Postal Service can?
Here's How
1.Here's how to read the bar code on your letter.
•Most U.S.letter bar codes have bars of two lengths:long and short.
•Every bar code should start and end with long bars; ignore those.
•Look at the rest of the bars in groups of five,starting with the second bar.Each group of five represents one digit.(數(shù)字)
2.Here's how to figure out what those digits are.
•The five bars stand for one of these numbers:7,4,2,1,0.
•Some genius figured out that this range would allow you to come up with the digits 0to 9.You do it by adding the numbers of the long bars together.
Say you have this bar code:
Here,the 4and 2places have long bars.Added together,they total 6,so this bar code stands for 6.
Say you have this bar code:
The 1and 0places have long bars.Added together,they total 1,so this bar code stands for 1.
Say you have this bar code:
The 7and 4pieces have long bars.Added together,they total 11,but there is no 11in this system,so this bar code stands for 0.
3.Now let's look at the bar code on a letter.

Ignore the first and last bars of the whole bar code.Then look at the next 20bars to find the zip code (0680).The next two sets of five bars give your mail carrier's number (10153).The rest of the bars in the bar code indicate the house or maibox number.The house number is 32.

63.Why does US Postal Service just use five numbers for the five bars?D
A.They are easy to read.            B.They are ohosen only by accident.
C.They can stand for the long bars. D.They are enough to make ten digits.
64.Which of the following bar codes otands for"7"according to the text?B
A.   B.  C.  D.
65.According to the text,we know thatC.
A.the bar code often beings with a short bar
B.the last short her is often ignored
C.the mail route should follow the zip code
D.the bar code can show your house color
66.The purpose of the text is to let us know how toB.
A.create a bar code  B.recognize a bar code
C.send a letter      D.make the maibox safe.

5.It's 10p.m.You may not know where your child is,but the chip does.
The chip will also know if your child has fallen and needs immediate help.Once doctors arrive,the chip will also be able to tell them which drugs are not suitable for little Jonny or Janie.At the hospital,the chip will tell doctors his or her complete medical history.And of course,when you arrive to pick up your child,setting the hospital bill with your health insurance policy will be a simple matter of waving your own chip  the one embedded(植入) in your hand.
To some,this may sound unbelievable.But the technology for such chips is no longer the stuff of science fiction.And it may soon offer many other benefits besides locating lost children or elderly patients.It could be used as credit cards and people won't have to carry wallets anymore.
On the other hand,some are already wondering what this sort of technology may do to the sense of personal privacy and liberty.
"Any technology of this kind could result in abuse of personal privacy,"says Lee Tien,senior staff lawyer for the Electronic Frontier Foundation."If a kid can be tracked,do you want other people to be able to track your kid?It's a double-edged sword."
Applied Digital Solutions,Inc.in Palm Beach,F(xiàn)lorida,says it has recently applied to the Food and Drug Admission for permission to begin testing its device in humans.About the size of a grain of rice,the microchip can be coded with bits of information and embedded in humans under a layer of skin.When scanned by a nearby reader,the embedded chip gives the data.
Most embedded chip designs are so-called passive chips,which give information only when scanned by a nearby reader.But active chips such as the proposed Digital Angel of the future  will give out information all the time.And that means designers will have to develop some sort of power source that can provide a continuous source of energy,yet be small enough to be embedded with the chips.
In addition to technical problems,many suspect that all sorts of legal and privacy issues would have to be cleared as well.

68.By using the example in the first two paragraphs,the author wants to tell us thatC.
A.chips are usually used to locate lost children
B.chips are more convenient than credit cards
C.chips will soon be useful in many aspects of daily lives
D.chips will bring out the issue of abuse of personal privacy
69.What is the attitude of Lee Tien towards the chips?D
A.Negative      B.Positive      C.Indifferent  D.Concerned
70.Which of the following statements about Digital Angel is NOT true?B
A.It will include a chip and a power source.
B.It will be produced and replace passive chips.
C.It will be embedded in humans under a layer of skin.
D.It will give information without being scanned by a reader.
71.It is indicated in the passage that chip producers have to consider the following issues EXCEPTA.
A.financial problems             B.technical problems
C.legal problems                 D.privacy problem.

12.You,re in a department store and you see a couple of attractive young women looking at a sweater.You listen to their conversation:
"I can't believe it-a Lorenzo Betrolla!They are almost impossible to find.Isn't it beautiful?And it's a lot cheaper than the one Sara bought in Rome".
They leave and you go over to see this incredible sweater.It's nice and the price is right. You've never heard of Lorenzo Bertolla,but those girls looked really stylish.They must know.So,you buy it.You never realize that those young women are employees of an advertising agency.They are actually paid to go from store to store,talking loudly about Lorenzo Bertolla clothes.
Every day we notice what people are wearing,driving and eating.If the person looks cool,the product seems cool,too.This is the secret of undercover(暗中進行的)marketing.Companies from Ford to Nike are starting to use it.
Undercover marketing is important because it reaches people that don't pay attention to traditional advertising.This is particularly true of the MTV generation-consumers between the age of 18 and 34.It is a golden group.They have a lot of money to spend,but they don't trust ads.
So advertising agencies hire young actors to"perform"in bars and other places where young adults go.Some people might call this practice misleading,but marketing executive Jonathan Ressler calls it creative."Look at traditional advertising.Its effectiveness is decreasing".
However,one might ask what exactly is"real"about of young women pretending to be enthusiastic about a sweater.Advertising executives would say it's no less real than flu ad.The difference is that you know an ad is trying to persuade you to buy something.You don't know a conversation you overhear is just a performance.

64.The two attractive young women were talking loudly so that they could.B
A.get the sweater at a lower price
B.be heard by people around
C.be admired by other shoppers
D.decide on buying the sweater
65.Lorenzo Bertolla isD.
A.a(chǎn) very popular male singer   B.a(chǎn)n advertising agency
C.a(chǎn) clothing company in Rome   D.the brand name of a sweater
66.Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?C
A.The two girls are in fact employed by the Lorenzo Bertolla Company.
B.The MTV generation tends to be more easily influenced by ads.
C.Traditional advertising is becoming less effective because it's too direct.
D.Undercover marketing will surely be banned soon by the government.
67.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?D
A.Two Attractive Shopperb  B.Lorenzo Bertolla Sweaters
C.Ways of Advertising      D.Undercover Marketing.
