57、h, more emotional in Czech. Is it possible that, along with these differences, my moral compass (指南针) also points in somewhat different directions depending on the language Im using at the time?Psychologists who study moral judgments have become very interested in this question. The findings of seve
58、ral recent studies suggest that when people are faced with moral dilemmas (困境), they do indeed respond differently when considering them in a foreign language than when using their native tongue.In a 2014 paper led by Albert Costa volunteers were presented with a moral dilemma known as the “trolley
59、problem”: imagine that a runaway trolley is moving quickly toward a group of five people standing on the tracks, unable to move. You are next to a switch that can move the trolley to a different set of tracks, therefore sparing the five people, but resulting in the death of one who is standing on th
60、e side tracks. Do you pull the switch?Most people agree that they would. But what if the only way to stop the trolley is by pushing a large stranger off a footbridge into its path? People tend to be very hesitant to say they would do this, even though in both situations, one person is sacrificed to
61、save five. But Costa and his colleagues found that presenting the dilemma in a language that volunteers had learned as a foreign tongue dramatically increased their stated willingness to push the sacrificial person off the footbridge, from fewer than 20% of respondents working in their native langua
62、ge to about 50% of those using the foreign one.Why does it matter whether we judge morality in our native language or a foreign one? According to one explanation, such judgments involve two separate and competing ways of thinkingone of these, a quick, natural “feeling,” and the other, careful delibe
63、ration about the greatest good for the greatest number. When we use a foreign language, we unconsciously sink into the more careful way simply because the effort of operating in our non-native language signals our cognitive (认知的) system to prepare for difficult activity.An alternative explanation is
64、 that differences arise between native and foreign tongues because our childhood languages are filled with greater emotions than are those learned in more academic settings. As a result, moral judgments made in a foreign language are less filled with the emotional reactions that surface when we use
65、a language learned in childhood.Theres strong evidence that memory connects a language with the experiences and interactions through which that language was learned. For example, people who are bilingual (双语的) are more likely to recall an experience if reminded in the language in which that event oc
66、curred. Our childhood languages, learned in the middle of passionate emotion, become filled with deep feeling. By comparison, languages acquired late in life, especially if they are learned through limited interactions in the classroom or dully delivered over computer screens and headphones, enter o

Is it necessary to learn more than one foreign language?C. Does the language one uses influence ones moral judgments?
68、D. How do people deal with moral dilemmas in a foreign language?39. When the “trolley problem” was presented in a foreign language, volunteers were more likely to _.A. care less about the five peopleB. pull the switch to the side tracksC. remain hesitant about what to doD. sacrifice the stranger on
69、the footbridge40. The underlined word in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to _.A. considerationB. guidanceC. selectionD. arrangement41. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?A.

B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇科普类短文阅读。最近的一些研究的结果表明,当人们面对道德困境时,他们用外语思考和用母语思考时的反应确实不同。【38题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第二段The findings of several recent studies suggest that when people are faced with moral dil
71、emmas (困境), they do indeed respond differently when considering them in a foreign language than when using their native tongue.可知,最近的一些研究的结果表明,当人们面对道德困境时,他们用外语思考的反应和他们的母语思考的反应确实是不同的。所以此问题指的是一个人使用的语言会影响他的道德判断吗?故选C。【39题详解】细节理解题。根据文章第四段But Costa and his colleagues found that presenting the dilemma in a
72、 language that volunteers had learned as a foreign tongue dramatically increased their stated willingness to push the sacrificial person off the footbridge, from fewer than 20% of respondents working in their native language to about 50% of those using the foreign one.可知,志愿者们用已经学会的外语来表达这种两难境地时,极大地增加
73、了他们将牺牲者推下人行桥的意愿。分别与D选择项中的sacrifice和 footbridge分别对应。故选D。【40题详解】词义猜测题。根据文章第五段According to one explanation, such judgments involve two separate and competing ways of thinkingone of these, a quick, natural “feeling,”这样的判断涉及两种独立的、相互竞争的思维方式一种是快速、自然的“感觉”,所以猜测出,另外一种是对大多数人最大利益的深思熟虑。故选A。【41题详解】细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段
74、An alternative explanation is that differences arise between native and foreign tongues because our childhood languages are filled with greater emotions than are those learned in more academic settings. 母语和外语之间的差异是因为我们的童年语言比在学术环境中学习的语言更充满感情,和最后一段By comparison, languages acquired late in life, especi
75、ally if they are learned through limited interactions in the classroom or dully delivered over computer screens and headphones, enter our minds lacking the emotionality that is present for their native speakers. 后天习得的语言,缺乏母语者所具有的情感。所以说,母语学习包含更多的情感。故选B。【点睛】阅读理解通常都会出现词义猜测题,要求考生从上下文理解中概括出生词或短语的词义。考生作此类
76、题型时,首先要找到所猜测词所在文章的位置,然后在理解文章大意的基础之上,对此词前后句反复研读,最后根据前后句猜测出词义。例如小题3要求猜测出deliberation的含义,就是文章第五段According to one explanation, such judgments involve two separate and competing ways of thinkingone of these, a quick, natural “feeling,”这样的判断涉及两种独立的、相互竞争的思维方式一种是快速、自然的“感觉”,所以猜测出,另外一种是对大多数人最大利益的深思熟虑,从而推测出del
