    Passage 1
    In his book The Tipping Point,Malcolm Gladwell argues that"social epidemics"are driven in?large part by the actions of a tiny minority of special individuals,often called influentials,who are?unusually informed,persuasive,or well-connected.The idea is intuitively compelling,but it doesn′t?explain how ideas actually spread.
    The supposed importance of influentials derives from a plausible-sounding but largely untested?theory called the"two-step flow of communication":Information flows from the media to the?influentials and from them to everyone else.Marketers have embraced the two-step flow because it?suggests that if they can just find and influence the influentials,those selected people will do most of?the work for them.The theory also seems to explain the sudden and unexpected popularity of certain?looks,brands,or neighborhoods.In many such cases,a cursory search for causes finds that some?small group of people was wearing,promoting,or developing whatever it is before anyone else paid?attention.Anecdotal evidence of this kind fits nicely with the idea that only certain special people?can drive trends.
    In their recent work,however,some researchers have come up with the finding that influentials?have far less impact on social epidemics than is generally supposed.In fact,they don′t seem to be?required of all.
    The researchers′argument stems from a simple observation about social influence:With the?exception of a few celebrities like Oprah Winfrey--whose outsize presence is primarily a function of?media,not interpersonal,influence--even the most influential members of a population simply don′t?interact with that many others.Yet it is precisely these non-celebrity influentials who,according to?the two-step-flow theory,are supposed to drive social epidemics,by influencing their friends and?colleagues directly.For a social epidemic to occur,however,each person so affected must then?influence his or her own acquaintances,who must in turn influence theirs,and so on;and just how?many others pay attention to each of these people has little to do with the initial influential.If people?in the network just two degrees removed from the initial influential prove resistant,for example,the?cascade of change won′t propagate very far or affect many people.
    Building on the basic truth about interpersonal influence,the researchers studied the dynamics?of social influence by conducting thousands of computer simulations of populations,manipulating a?number of variables relating to people′s ability to influence others and their tendency to be?influenced.They found that the principal requirement for what is called"global cascades"—the?widespread propagation of influence through networks--is the presence not of a few influentials but,rather,of a critical mass of easily influenced people.

    What the researchers have observed recently shows that__________.查看材料

    A.the power of influence goes with social interactions
    B.interpersonal links can be enhanced through the media
    C.influentials have more channels to reach the public

    Are You a Successful Leader?

    1 Almost nothing we do in this world is done in isolation.At work or at play,you'll find yourself in
    groups,working with other people:your team at work,a meeting with colleagues,your family,a holiday with
    friends,a group of students working together,a day out walking in the mountains,a group of neighbours want-
    ing to make changes.It is now recognized that being able to work successfully with other people is one of the
    major keys to success,partly because we need to do it so often.
    2 In almost every situation where you're in a group,you will need a skilled leader. All groups need
    leaders and all successful groups have good leaders.Groups without leaders or with weak leaders almost
    always break down.Members of a leaderless group often begin to feel dissatisfied and frustrated.Time is
    wasted and the tasks are not achieved.There are often arguments and tensions between people as there is
    nobody to keep the goals clear. Some personalities dominate and others disappear. Often group members begin
    not to come to meetings in order to avoid more disharmony.
    3 Some people are natural leaders.The celebrity chef,Antonio Carluccio says,"True leaders are born
    and you can spot them in kitchens."They're people who combine toughness,fairness and humour. Although
    a lot of people agree that there are somne natural-born leaders,most people now recognize that leadership can
    also be taught.Our professional and experienced staff can train almost anyone how to be a successful leader.
    Good leaders don't make people do things in a bossy,controlling way.You can learn how to involve everyone,
    encouraging the whole group to work towards a comnmon goal.
    4 Our training courses use activities and techniques to develop a range of qualities which are necessary
    to be a good leader. Self-confidence is vital and being able to overcome your own fears about being a leader.
    Successful leaders also need to be calm and intelligent.They need to be able to work out good strategies and
    make sound judgements under pressure.Lastly,and probably most importantly,good leaders need to be sensi-
    tive,sociable and be able to get on with a wide range of people.Good leadership is essentially the ability to
    influence others and good leaders allow all members of the group to contribute.

    Good leaders always avoid_________.
    A:the ability to work with others
    B:encouraging group members
    C:lack of good leaders
    D:overcoming fears about being a leader
    E:bossing people around
    F:working out good strategies

    答案:E
    解析:
    由第一段主题句“Almost nothing we do in this world is done in isolation”可知,任何事情 都不是个人单独完成的,即people are in groups。
    第二段第一句“…you will need a skilled leader",中的skilled相当于good,故选B。
    由第三段倒数第二句中的“train almost anyone to be successful leader”可知,培训可以造 就好的领导人才。
    第四段主要讲的是好的领导应有各种不同的才能。
    由第一段最后一句“…being able to work successfully with other people is one of the major keys to success...”可知选A。
    由第二段第三句“Groups without leaders or with weak leaders almost always break down”可 知选C。
    从第三段倒数第二句“don't make people do things in a bossy , controlling way”可知,好的 领导不以发号施令,控制的方式让人做事,故选E。
    由第四段第二句“self-confidence is vital and being able to overcome your own fears about being a leader”可知,自信很重要,它可以帮你克服成为领导的恐惧。故选D。第4部分:阅读理解第一篇 本篇文章主要探讨了移动电话是否对人们的身体有害。最后作者建议人们尽量少用移动 电话。

    Are You a Successful Leader?

    1 Almost nothing we do in this world is done in isolation.At work or at play,you'll find yourself in
    groups,working with other people:your team at work,a meeting with colleagues,your family,a holiday with
    friends,a group of students working together,a day out walking in the mountains,a group of neighbours want-
    ing to make changes.It is now recognized that being able to work successfully with other people is one of the
    major keys to success,partly because we need to do it so often.
    2 In almost every situation where you're in a group,you will need a skilled leader. All groups need
    leaders and all successful groups have good leaders.Groups without leaders or with weak leaders almost
    always break down. Members of a leaderless group often begin to feel dissatisfied and frustrated.Time is wasted
    and the tasks are not achieved.There are often arguments and tensions between people as there is nobody to
    keep the goals clear. Some personalities dominate and others disappear. Often group members begin not to
    come to meetings in order to avoid more disharmony.
    3 Some people are natural leaders.The celebrity chef,Antonio Carluccio says,"True leaders are born
    and you can spot them in kitchens."They're people who combine toughness,fairness and humour. Although
    a lot of people agree that there are some natural-born leaders,most people now recognize that leadership can
    also be taught.Our professional and experienced staff can train almost anyone how to be a successful leader.
    Good leaders don't make people do things in a bossy,controlling way.You can learn how to involve everyone,
    encouraging the whole group to work towards a common goal.
    4 Our training courses use activities and techniques to develop a range of qualities which are necessary
    to be a good leader. Seff-confidence is vital and being able to overcome your own fears about being a leader.
    Successful leaders also need to be calm and intelligent.They need to be able to work out good strategies and
    make sound judgements under pressure.Lastly,and probably most importantly,good leaders need to be sensi-
    tive,sociable and be able to get on with a wide range of people.Good leadership is essentially the ability to
    influence others and good leaders allow all members of the group to contribute.

    Good leaders always avoid__________.
    A:the ability to work with others
    B:encouraging group members
    C:lack of good leaders
    D:bossing people around
    E:working out good strategies
    F: overcoming fears about being a leader

    答案:D
    解析:
    由第一段主题句“Almost nothing we do in this world is done in isolation”可知任何事情都不是我们单独完成的,即people are in groups。
    由第二段第一句“.You will need a skilled leader",在此skilled相当于good。
    由第三段倒数第二句中的“train almost anyone to be successful leader”可知培训可以造 就好的领导人才。
    第四段主要讲的是好的领导应有各种不同的才能。故选A。
    由第一段最后一句“…being able to work successfully with other people is one of the majorkeys to success...”可知选A。
    由第二段第三句“Groups without leaders or with weak leaders almost always break down", 可知选C。
    从第三段倒数第二句“don't make people do things in a bossy, controlling way",可知好的 领导不以发号施令和控制的方式让人做事,故选D。

    请阅读 Passage l,完成第 21~25小题。                                      Passage1   In his book The Tipping Point, Malcolm Gladwell argues that   "social epidemics" are driven in largepart by the actions of a tiny minority of special individuals, often calledinfluentials, who are unusually informed, persuasive, or well-connected. Theidea is intuitively compelling, but it doesn't explain how ideas actuallyspread.    The supposed importance of influentials derives from a plausible-soundingbut largely untested theory called the "two-step flow ofcommunication": Information flows from the media to the influential andfrom them to everyone else. Marketers have embraced the two-step flow becauseit suggests that if they can just find and influence the influentials, those selectedpeople will do most of the work for them. The theory also seems to explain thesudden and unexpected popularity of certain looks, brands, or neighborhoods. Inmany such cases, a cursory search for causes finds that some small group ofpeople was wearing  promoting, or developingwhatever it is before anyone else paid attention. Anecdotal evidence of thiskind fits nicely with the idea that only certain special people can drivetrends.    In their recent work,however,some researchers have come up with the finding that influential havefar less impact on social epidemics than is generally supposed. In fact, theydon 't  seem to be required of all.The researchers ' argument stems from a simple observation aboutsocial influence: With the exception of a few celebrities like OprahWinfrey-whose outsize presence is primarily a function of media, notinterpersonal, influence-even the most influential members of a populationsimply don't interact with that many others. Yet it is precisely these non-celebrityinfluentials who,according to the two-step-flow theory, are supposed to drive socialepidemics, by influencing their friends and colleagues directly.  For a social epidemic to occur, however, eachperson so affected must then influence his or her own acquaintances,who must intum influence theirs, and so on; and just how many others pay attention to eachof these people        has little to do with the initialinfluential. If people in the network just two degrees removed from the initialinfluential prove resistant. for example, the cascade of change won ' tpropagate very far or affect many people.    Building on the basic truth aboutinterpersonal influence, the researchers studied the dynamics of social influenceby conducting thousands of computer simulations of populations, manipulating a numberof variables relating to people's ability to influence others and theirtendency to be influenced.  They foundthat the principal requirement for what is called    "global cascades"---the widespreadpropagation of influence through networks—is the presence not of a few influentials but ,rather, of a critical mass of easilyinfluenced people.The underlined phrase "these people" in Paragraph 4 refers to the ones who____
    A

    stay outside the network of social influence

    B

    have little contact with the source of influence

    C

    are influenced and then influence others

    D

    are influenced by the initial influential
