Individualist cultures such as the US.place greater stress on the personal achievement and selfrespect, so protecting the self from feelings of failure is more important.Collectivist cultures, on the other hand, are more likely to attribute the personal success to luck and failure to the lack of talent.However, there are some situations where the selfserving bias happens less often.Some research has found that people in close relationships, whether the romantic relationship or friendship, tend to be more modest.Your friends or your partner, in other words, would remind you when a bad situation might be partly because of your own doing.Although the bias can mean avoid the personal responsibility for ones action, in many cases, it is a defense mechanism that protects a persons selfrespect.By attributing positive events to personal characteristics, people get an increase in confidence.By blaming the outside force for failure, people make themselves believe they dont need to be responsible for the failure and thus protect their selfrespect.Another advantage of this bias is that it leads people to persevere even in the face of difficult situations.An unemployed worker may feel more motivated to keep looking for work if he attributes his unemployment to a weak economy, for example, rather than some personal failure.An athlete might feel more motivated to perform well if he believes that his failure during a previous event is the result of bad weather rather than a lack of skill.Selfserving BiasThe concept of the selfserving biasThe selfserving bias mirrors a mon phenomenon that people always attribute their success to the (1)_ reasons while failure to the objective ones.Factors (2)_ the selfserving biasThe selfserving bias is linked to (3)_ and gender (性別)The selfserving bias is also connected with ones (4)_For example, an unhappy person tends to blame himself when bad things happen.Different (5)_ backgrounds, whether individualist or collectivist, also have much to do with the selfserving bias.For example, when faced with failure, the former needs more (6)_ while the latter needs to bear appropriate (7)_The bias happens less (8)_ when people are in close relationships.Advantages of the selfserving biasThe bias helps in protecting a persons selfrespect by increasing his confidence and (9)_ him from the personal responsibility for the future.The bias provides people with essential (10)_, which helps them keep struggling.答案:1.subjective2.influencing/affecting/impacting3age4.mood/emotion(s)/feelings5.cultural6protection/encouragement(s)/fort(s)7responsibility8.often/frequently9.freeing10motivation檢測評價(jià)B卷閱讀理解AYuletide (圣誕節(jié)) Brunch With Dickens Thursday, December 8, 10:00 am1:00 pmJoin us for a special brunch featuring delicious foods free from much salt and fat, soft beverages, and a special appearance of Gerald Charles Dickens!

And it works with love, too. The more of it you give away, the more you get it back from others. Secondly, I am convinced that love is not only a feeling, it is also an attitude. So, if you want to attract love into your life, you must be willing to think about it and wele it.Most people would not agree with me on that. They would say that they do think about it more than anything else. But what kind of state are you in when you think about it? Most ladies when they turn 2430 bee hopeless. They tell themselves and sometimes others that they are missing the chance and most probably will never get married. Their focus is in the wrong area. This only strengthens their disappointment and doubts.Thirdly, you have to learn how to love yourself. Too many people hate themselves. How can they expect that others will love them? You change the focus by looking at how wonderfully God made you. You are beautiful in his eyes and you must love yourself.Fourthly, love es when you learn how to forgive others. Do not keep hate in your heart for it will destroy your ability to receive and give love. Try to forgive the person or people who have offended (冒犯) you.Fifthly, do some love actions. Very often love is there, but you have to express it. Do something good for other people. Do something nice for the person whom you have warm feelings for. Do not rely only on thoughts and words. Move to actions and love will be there.So I do believe that thoughts on love can inspire you to have the most desirable quality of life in the world.語篇解讀:本文是一篇說明文。生活中,每個人都想得到愛,但如何得到呢?對此,作者提出了五條建議。3What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 3 probably refer to?AGiving love much thought.BFeeling love in your heart.CGetting love sooner or later.DWeling any love ing to you.解析:選A代詞指代題。根據(jù)第二段最后一句中的“you must be willing to think about it and wele it”和第三段第二句可猜測,此處that指多思考關(guān)于愛的問題,故選A項(xiàng)。4To get the love we desire, we should _.Aexpect others to love usBhelp those in needCnever offend othersDexpress love with actions解析:選D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段最后一句可知,要想獲得愛,我們必須用行動表達(dá)愛,故選D項(xiàng)。5Whats the purpose of the author in writing the text?ATo give some advice on how to get love.BTo explain the meaning of love.CTo stress the importance of love.DTo pare “give” with “receive”解析:選A寫作意圖題。通讀全文可知,作者主要提出了五條獲得愛的建議,幫助我們提高生活品質(zhì),故選A項(xiàng)。CGoing GreenFor career changers thinking about growth and advancement potential, forget the bluecollar and whitecollar categories: Green is the way to go. According to Bracken Hendricks, a senior fellow at the Center for Global Progress, careers that promote environmental responsibility will bee main stream within a decade. “The growth in green careers will be like the Internet Boom, which not only created new jobs, but also had an influence on the overall economy,” he says.The increasing environmental problems and need for ecofriendly products and services are creating a new job section of greencollar jobs. Many countries of the world have realized the importance and need for energysaving products and services. It is expected that by 2025 about 25% of the jobs in developed countries will be of greencollar jobs. Doesnt the data look promising for the future?Greencollar jobs have bee a bright career chances for all. And jobs will pop up at every ine level, from environmental manager to gardener. For example, many countries including the United States have understood that fossil fuels have negative effect on the environment which can later bee a serious danger to mankind. As a result, possibilities are being explored to find alternatives to satisfy demands in a better way. The increasing demand of newer resources has been creating the need for experts and researchers who can find better ways to deal with the ongoing needs. In addition, in order to meet the increasing demands of environmentfriendly equipment, both green product designer and educated and trained workers are needed. Management of environmental organizations also demands a large number of environmental managers.Where can you find greencollar jobs? Internet is undoubtedly the best way to find information on almost any matter. Nowadays, different kinds of jobs are being posted online. Search through a couple of job websites to look for a bright future in energy conversion and recycling of waste management. Check regularly and find the right work for yourself. People who read newspapers can also find different kinds of greencollar jobs.語篇解讀:本文是一篇說明文。隨著各國環(huán)保意識的增強(qiáng),勞動者行列又多了一個群體:greencollar worker(綠領(lǐng)工人),文中列舉了其具體崗位,說明了其發(fā)展趨勢。6Why does Bracken Hendricks mention the Internet Boom in Paragraph 1?ATo explain the importance of technology.BTo provide evidence of his recent research.CTo indicate the bright future of green careers.DTo inform us of the way of finding greencollar jobs.解析:選C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段最后一句,尤其是其中“The growth in green careers will be like the Internet Boom”可知環(huán)保類職業(yè)的增長會像互聯(lián)網(wǎng)的興旺一樣,因此答案選C。7Which of the following probably creates greencollar jobs?APromoting services.BTraining employees.CConsuming fossil fuels.DDeveloping new resources.解析:選D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。解答本題首先需理解greencollar jobs的定義,然后采用排除法,選項(xiàng)A、B、C創(chuàng)造的工作與綠領(lǐng)工作定義不符合。另外結(jié)合第二、三段的內(nèi)容也不難確定D為正確答案。8What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 3?AThe requirements for green employees.BThe development of the green industry.CThe econom
