7、Why Would They Falsely Confess?Why on earth would an innocent person falsely confess to committing a crime? To most people, it just doesn\'t seem logical. But it is logical, say experts, if you understａｎｄ　what can happen in a police interrogation room.Under the right conditions, people\'s minds are susceptible to influence, ａｎｄ　the pressure put on suspects during police grillings is enormous. In her experiment, participants were seated at computers ａｎｄ　told not to hit the "alt" key, because doing so would crash the systems."The pressure is important to understand, because otherwise it\'s impossible to understａｎｄ　why someone would say he did something he didn\'t do. The answer is: to put an end to an uncomfortable situation that will continue until he does confess. "Developmental psychologist Allison Redlich recently conducted a laboratory study to determine how likely people are to confess to things they didn\'t do. ______ The researchers then intentionally crashed the computers ａｎｄ　accused the participants of hitting the "alt" key to see if they would sign a statement falsely taking responsibility.Redlich\'s findings clearly demonstrate how easy it can be to get people to falsely confess: 59 percent of the young adults in the experiment immediately confessed. Redlich also found that the younger the participant, the more likely a false confession. Of the 15-to 16-year-olds, 72 percent signed confessions, as did 78 percent of the 12-to 13-year-olds. "There\'s no question that young people are more at risk," says Saul Kassin, a psychology professｏｒat Williams College, who has done similar studies with similar results. "But adults are highly vulnerable too. " Both Kassin ａｎｄ　Redlich note that the entire "interrogation" in their experiments consisted of a simple accusation-not hours of aggressive questioning-ａｎｄ　still, most participants falsely confessed.Because of the stress of a police interrogation, they conclude, suspects can become convinced that falsely confessing is the easiest way out of a bad situation. "In some ways," says Kassin, "false confession becomes a rational decision. "【单选题】

A.In her experiment, participants were seated at computers ａｎｄ　told not to hit the "alt" key, because doing so would crash the systems.

B."In some ways," says Kassin, "false confession becomes a rational decision. "

C."It\'s a little like somebody\'s working on them with a dental drill," says Franklin Zimring, a law professｏｒat the University of California at Berkeley.

D."But adults are highly vulnerable too. "

E.How could an innocent person admit to doing something he didn\'t do?

F.Redlich also found that the younger the participant, the more likely a false confession.

正确答案:A

答案解析:本段提到一个心理学家做了一个实验(a laboratory study)，也提到了crashed the computers和the“alt”key，这些都和选项A的内容对应了起来。文章和选项的对应关系是解答此类题型的一个重要策略。

8、How to Interview PeopleInterviewing (采访) is one of those skills that you can only get better at. You will never again feel so ill at ease when you try it fｏｒthe first time, ａｎｄ　probably you\'ll never feel entirely comfortable trying to get from another person answers that he ｏｒshe may be too shy to reveal. But at least half of the skill is mechanical. The rest is instinct, which can all be learned with experience.The basic tools fｏｒan interview are paper ａｎｄ　two ｏｒthree well-sharpened pencils. But keep your notebook ｏｒpaper out of sight until you need it. There\'s nothing less likely to relax a person than the arrival of someone with a note-taking pad. Both of you need time to get to know each other. Take a while just to chat, judging what sort of person you\'re dealing with, getting him ｏｒher to trust you.Never go into an interview without doing whatever homework you can. If you are interviewing a town official, know his voting record. If it\'s an actor, know what plays he has been in. ______ Many beginning interviewers are afraid that they are forcing the other person to answer questions ａｎｄ　have no right to inquire about his personal secrets. This fear is almost 103 percent unnecessary. Unless the person really hates being interviewed, he is delighted that somebody wants to interview him. Most men ａｎｄ　women lead lives that are uninteresting, ａｎｄ　they grasp any chance to talk to an outsider who seems eager to listen.This doesn\'t necessarily mean that it will go well. In general you will be talking to people who have never been interviewed before, ａｎｄ　they will get used to the process awkwardly, perhaps not giving you anything that you can use. Come back another day; it will go better. You will both even begin to enjoy it-proof that you aren\'t forcing your victim to do something he doesn\'t really want to.【单选题】

A.Come back another day; it will go better.

B.But at least half of the skill is mechanical.

C.As one philosopher interviewed in the film notes, they lack irony.

D.You will not be liked if you inquire about facts that you could have learned in advance.

E.This fear is almost 102 percent unnecessary.

F.Both of you need time to get to know each other.

正确答案:D

答案解析:空格前一直在说要提前进行准备，只有D符合上下文语境。

9、An Early Form of Jazz MusicMusic comes in many forms; most countries have a style of their own. At the turn of the last century, when jazz was born, America had no prominent music 0f its own. No one knows exactly when was invented ｏｒby whom. But it began to be heard in the early 1890s. Jazz is America\'s contribution to popular music. In contrast to classical music, which follows formal European traditions, jazz is spontaneous ａｎｄ　free in form. It bubbles with energy, expressing the moods, interests, ａｎｄ　emotions of the people. In the 1920s\' jazz sounded like America. ａｎｄ　so it does today. The origins 0f the music are as interesting as the music itself. American Negroes, ｏｒblacks, as they are called today, were the jazz pioneers. They were brought to the Southern states as slaves. They were sold to plantation owners ａｎｄ　forced to work long hours. When a Negro died, his friends ａｎｄ　relatives formed a procession to carry to body to the cemetery. In New Orleans, a bａｎｄ　often accompanied the body . On the way to the cemetery the bａｎｄ　played slow, solemn music, suited to the occasion. Furthermore 0n the way home the mood changed. Spirits lifted. Death had removed one of their numbers, but the living were glad to be alive . The bａｎｄ　played ____music, improvising on both the harmony ａｎｄ　the melody of the tunes played at the funeral. This music made everyone want to dance. It was an early form ofjazz. 【单选题】

A.sad

B.solemn

C.happy

D.funeral

正确答案:C

答案解析:可以想象，在回家路上他们演奏的音乐一定是比较轻快的。所以选happy，另外三个选项都和happy的意义相悖。

10、Stop Eating Too much"Clean your plate!"and" Be a member of the clean-plate club!" Just about every kid in the US has heard this from a parent ｏｒgrandparent. Often, it\'s accompanied by an appeal: "Just think about those starving orphans (孤儿) in Africa!" Sure, we should be grateful fｏｒevery bite of food. Unfortunately, many people in the US take too many bites. Instead of saying "clean the plate", perhaps we should save some food fｏｒtomorrow.According to news reports, US restaurants are partly to blame fｏｒthe growing bellies(肚子). A waiter puts a plate of food in front of each customer, with two to four times the amount recommended by the government, according to a USA Today story. Americans traditionally associate quantity with value ａｎｄ　most restaurants try to give them that. They prefer to have customers complain about too much food rather than too little.Barbara Rolls, a nutrition (营养) professｏｒat Pennsylvania State University, told USA Today that restaurant portion sizes began to grow in the 1970s, the same time that the American waistline(腰围) began to expand.Health experts have tried to get many restaurants to serve smaller portions. Now, apparently, some customers are calling fｏｒthis too. The restaurant industry trade magazine QSR reported last month that 57 percent of more than 4,000 people surveyed believed restaurants served portions that were too large; 23 percent had no opinion; 20 percent disagreed. But a closer look at the survey indicates that many Americans who can\'t afford fine dining still prefer large portions. Seventy percent of those earn at least $ 150,000 per year prefer smaller portions; but only 45 percent of those earning less than $25, 000 want smaller.It\'s not that working class Americans don\'t want to eat healthy. It\'s just that, after long hours at low-paying jobs, getting less on their plate hardly seems like a good deal. They live from paycheck (薪金支票) to paycheck, happy to save a little money fｏｒnext year\'s Christmas presents.(2008年)What does the survey indicate?【单选题】

A.Twenty percent of Americans want smaller portions.

B.Many low-income Amercing want large portions.

C.Fifty-seven percent of Americans want large portions.

D.Forty-five percent of Americans want smaller portions.

正确答案:B

答案解析:题干问“调查报告说明了什么”。参见文章第四段，许多吃不起精美正餐的美国人仍然希望饭菜的量大一些。而选项B与此相符合，故正确答案为B。
