Many illustrations(例证) could be given of this from everyday life, but what is of particular interest to psychologists is how much pe

12、oples judgments and opinions can be changed as a result of group pressure. Asch and others noticed that people in a group will agree to statements that are contrary to the evidence of their senses. It would be a mistake to think that only particular changeable people are chosen to take part in exper

13、iments of this type. Usually highly intelligent and independent people are used.In a typical experiment, this is what may happen. The experimenter asks for volunteers to join a group which is investigating visual sense. The participants are not, therefore, aware of the real purpose of the experiment

14、. Each volunteer is taken to a room where he finds a group of about seven people who are cooperating with the experimenter. The group is shown a standard card which contains a single line. They are then asked to look at a second card. This has three lines on it. One is obviously longer than the line

15、 on the first card. One is shorter and one the same length. They have to say which line on the second card is the same length as the line on the standard card. The other members of the group answer first but what the volunteer does not know is that they have been told to pick one of the wrong lines.

16、 When his turn comes he is faced with the consistent opinion of the rest of the groupall the others have chosen line A but he quite clearly sees line B as correct.What will he do? According to Asch, more than half of the victims chosen will change their opinion. What is equally surprising is that, w

17、hen interviewed about their answers, most explained that they know the group choice was incorrect but that they yield to the pressure of the group because they thought they must be suffering from an optical illusion(视觉假象), or because they were afraid of being different.1、The psychologists are especi

18、ally interested in _.Athe evidence of the experiment.Bthe changes in the attitudes of people.Cthe difference in peoples behaviorDthe degree of changes of peoples opinions2、Why more than half of the victims changes their opinions in the experiment?ABecause they had been told about the answer.BBecause

19、 thought the group choice was correct.CBecause they submitted to the group pressure.DBecause their eyes were suffering from illusion.3、The purpose of the author in writing this passage is to _.Aillustrate the influence of group pressure on individualsBencourage people to act against any groups opini

20、onCinvite more volunteers to join in Aschs experimentDtell the readers how to perform psychological experiment22（8分） Tiny microbes(微生物) are at the heart of a new agricultural technique to manage harmful greenhouse gas. Scientists have discovered how microbes can be used to turn carbon dioxide into s

21、oil-enriching limestone(石灰石), with the help of a type of tree that grows in tropical areas, such as West Africa.Researchers have found that when the Iroko tree is grown in dry, acidic soil and treated with a combination of natural fungi(霉菌) and other bacteria, not only does the tree grow well, it al

22、so produces the mineral limestone in the soil around its root.The Iroko tree makes a mineral by combining Ca from the earth with CO2 from the atmosphere. The bacteria then create the conditions under which this mineral turns into limestone. The discovery offers a new way to lock carbon into the soil

23、, keeping it out of the atmosphere. In addition to storing carbon in the trees leaves and in the form of limestone, the mineral in the soil makes it more suitable for agriculture.The discovery could lead to reforestation(重新造林) projects in tropical countries, and help reduce carbon dioxide in the atm

24、osphere in the developing world. It has already been used in West Africa and is being tested in Bolivia, Haiti and India.The findings were made in a three-year project involving researchers from the Universities of Edinburgh, Granada, Lausanne and Delft University of Technology. The project examined

25、 several microbiological methods of locking CO2 as limestone, and the Iroko-bacteria way showed best results. Work was funded by the European Commission under the Future&Emerging Technologies(FET) scheme.Dr Bryne Ngwenya of the University of Edinburghs School of GeoSciences, who led the research, sa

26、id:“By taking advantage of this natural limestone-producing process, we have a low-tech, safe, readily employed and easily operating way to lock carbon out of the atmosphere, while improving farming conditions in tropical countries.”1、The passage is mainly introducing _.Asome useful natural fungi an

27、d bacteriaBa new way to deal with greenhouse gasCa newly-found tree in West AfricaDthe soil-enriching limestone created by scientists2、Which of the following is True about tiny microbes?AMost tiny microbes like living in dry, acidic soil.BCO2 can be broken down by natural fungi and bacteria.CThe mor

30、ethod _.Acan be used to improve the farming landBcan save a lot of seriously destroyed woodsChas been popularized in Bolivia, Haiti and IndiaDshould be spread all around the world in the future23（8分） When most people think of the word, “brand”, they think of the Nike Swoosh, Ford “blue oval,” McDona

31、lds Golden Arches, or the “State Farm is There” jingle. They know what theywill get with a wellbranded product or service as promised. Think of Volvo, for instance, and your first thoughts are probably something like “well built, comfortable, Swedish” and, most of all, “safety”.So a brand is a lot m

32、ore than a logo, icon, or slogan. Catchy as it may sound, it isnt the “brand” in the true senseand it certainly isnt what makes the brand valuable.A companys brand is a promise. Its a description of the companys character. To some extent, its a mission; its how the company creates and delivers value

33、. Also, its the feeling the company conveys to its stakeholders. Successful brands meet various challenges and consistently deliver on their promises, which is how they create brand value.To illustrate it, here are some brand promises from three highly successful, world-wide brands:The NFL: “To be t

34、he premier sports and entertainment brand that brings people together, connecting them socially and emotionally like no other.”Coca-Cola: “To inspire moments of optimism and uplift.”VirginAtlantic: “To be genuine, fun, contemporary, and different in everything we do at a reasonable price.”Interestin

35、g. In none of the above cases does the brand promise describe what these companies do or provide. The NFLs brand promise says nothing about football. Coca-Cola doesnt talk about providing the best soft drinks in the world. And Virgin Atlantics promise goes a lot farther than seating passengers in it

36、s aircrafts.Of course, a promise is nowhere near enough. The promise along with look, personality, time, money, and hard work combined can eventually help to build and maintain great brands and acquire a special patina(光泽) of what I call “me” appeal, showing my personal appetite. Apple has that pati

37、na. All of this can lead to sub-brands, like iPhone and iPad which acquire the glory of the parent brand.Sometimes a brand is memorable because of little things. TD Bank has a special place in their branches for you to deposit all those coins you collect in jars. It is called the Penny Arcade that t

38、urns depositing your coins into a fun game in which you can even win prizes. Years ago, Dime Savings Bank in New York had a small dime(十分硬币) carrier. It was given to kids and then theyd fill up its 50 slots (投币口) with a dime in each one and bring it to exchange for a $5 bill.1、What can we know from

39、the first 2 paragraphs?APeople tend to believe in top brands because they deliverwhat is promised.BWell branded Swedish products are of good quality but more costly than others.CWell branded products are faced with great challenges of quality currently.DA company shouldnt care about logos because th

40、ey cant make the brand valuable.2、In the authors opinion, a brand promise is _.Athecontract between a company and the people who interact with itBthe only way to build and maintain a great brands valueCa description of what a company actually does for its consumersDan important factor contributing t

41、o the success of a brand3、According to the passage, what isprobably “Virgin Atlantic”?AA financial company.BA high-tech software product.CAn airline company.DAn entertainment product.4、What can be inferred from the passage?ABuying a certain brand says nothing about the person who buys it.BLittle thi

42、ngs can mean a lot and make a brand memorable.CSub-brands are relatively easy to build and generate huge profits.DDime Savings Banks dime carriers are difficult for kids to operate.24（8分）Primavera SoundTo kick off the summer, theres no better place to be than Barcelona.
