Sir Andrew Likierman of the London Business School suggests that judgm
102、ent is “the combination of personal qualities with relevant knowledge and experience to form opinions and take decisions”. And he argues that, thus defined, judgment involves a processtaking in information, deciding whom and what to trust, summarizing ones personal knowledge, checking any prior beli
103、efs or feelings, summarizing the available choices and then making the decision. Expert knowledge can be useful in making judgments. But it is not the same thing. “Academics have expert knowledge,” Sir Andrew observes. “They dont necessarily have judgment.” People with judgment know when they are ou
104、t of their depth in making a decision and typically then seek the advice of someone who has the right background and knowledge. “While good judgment is important to success,” Sir Andrew cautions, “success is not a signal that there has been good judgment.”The degree of judgment required tends to inc
105、rease as people take on more responsibility. Those with routine tasks generally have limited scope for judgment. Line supervisors have some discretion (自行决定权). For a chief executive, the proportion of decisions involving judgment is high. Deciding not to take action is also a judgment with potential
106、ly serious consequences (for example, “I wont get vaccinated” or “I wont pay my bills”). The world is full of people whose lack of judgment brought their careers or personal life crashing down. Many made the common mistake of assuming everything was fine.As artificial intelligence gets used for more
107、 and more routine tasks in the service sector, exercising judgment may be one area where humans retain an edge over machines. This is far from certain, however. With enough practice, machines may be able to recognize these implicit cues and thus display the equivalent of good judgment. But then, per
108、haps humans can be taught, too. In the long run, one of the trickiest aspects of human judgment may be knowing precisely when to let machines take decisions and when to leave it to people.40. Whats Sir Andrews definition of judgement?41. Why does Andrew say that expert knowledge is not the same as m

115、has good judgement.According to the passage, success is not a signal that there has been good judgment.【43题详解】开放题。列出除“判断”之外的一个能导致成功的因素,并解释原因。例如态度,性格,情商等,言之有理即可。第二节 (20分)44. 假如你是红星中学高三学生李华,你们学校下个月即将举办庆祝建党100周年系列活动,请你给学校的英国交换生Jim写一封信,内容包括:1.此次系列活动的内容;2.邀请他参加。注意:1词数100左右;2开头和结尾已给出,不计入总词数。提示词:建党100 周年 t
