23、 must enter that house, and introduce myself among its strange people. But how was it to be done? True, I was near nineteen; but, thanks to the protecting care of my mother and sister, I well knew that many a girl of fifteen, or under, was gifted with a more womanly address, and greater ease and sel

24、f-possession, than I was. Yet, anyway. I would do very well, after all; and the children, of course, I should soon be at ease with them.Be calm, be calm, whatever happens, I said within myself; and truly I was so fully occupied in steadying my nerves and keeping down the rebellious beat of my heart

25、that when I was admitted into the hall and into the presence of Mrs. Bloomfield, I almost forgot to answer her polite greeting; and it afterwards struck me that the little I did say was spoken in the tone of one half-dead or half-asleep.With due politeness, however, she showed me my bedroom, and lef

26、t me there to take a little refreshment for a little while and led me into the dining-room. Some beefsteaks and potatoes were set before me; and while I dined upon these, she sat opposite, watching me (as I thought) and trying to keep something like a conversation consisting chiefly of commonplace r

27、emarks. In fact, my attention was almost wholly absorbed in my dinner: not from appetite, but from the toughness of the beefsteaks, and the numbness of my hands.“I have had so little time to attend to their education myself, but I think they are clever children, and very willing to learn, especially

28、 the little boy; he is, I think, the flower of the flock a generous, noble-spirited boy, one to be led, but not driven, and remarkable for always speaking the truth.” “His sister Mary Ann will require watching,” continued she, “but she is a very good girl on the whole, though I wish her to be kept o

29、ut of the nursery as much as possible, as she is now almost six years old, and might acquire bad habits from the nurses.

30、urther to do with the nursery maid.”I replied I was quite willing to do so; and at that moment the children entered the room. Tom Bloomfield was a well-grown boy of seven.

36、 ways to make an important decision, such as choosing a university to attend or a business to invest in, involves the use of a decision worksheet. Psychologists who study optimization(最佳化)compare the actual decisions made by people to theoretical ideal decisions to see how similar they are. Advocate

37、s of the worksheet procedure believe that it will yield optimal, that is, the best decisions. Although there are several variations on the exact format(格式)that worksheets can take, they are all similar in their essential aspects. Worksheets require defining the problem in a clear way and then listin

38、g all possible solutions to the problem. Next, the related considerations that will be affected by each decision are listed, and the relative importance of each consideration or consequence is determined. Each consideration is assigned a numerical value to reflect its relative importance. A decision

39、 is mathematically calculated by adding these values together. The alternative with the highest number of points emerges as the best decision. Since most important problems are multifaceted(多方面的),there are several alternatives to choose from, each with unique advantages and disadvantages. One of the

40、 benefits of a pencil and paper decision-making procedure is that it permits people to deal with more variables than their minds can generally comprehend and remember. On the average, people can keep about seven ideas in their minds at once. A worksheet can be especially useful when the decision inv

41、olves a large number of variables with complex relationships. A realistic example for many college students is the question “What will I do after graduation?” A graduate might seek a position that offers specialized training, pursue an advanced degree, or travel abroad for a year. A decision-making

42、worksheet begins with a clear statement of the problem that will also help to narrow it. It is important to be clear about the distinction between long-range and immediate goals because long-range goals often involve a different decision than short-range ones. Focusing on long-range goals, a graduat

43、ing student might revise the question above to “What will I do after graduation that will lead to successful career?”1. What does the passage mainly discuss?A. A tool to assist in making complex decisions.B. A comparison of actual decisions and ideal decisions.C. Research on how people make decision

44、s.D. Difference between long-range and short-range decision-making.答案解析:答案为A。本题为主旨大意题。文章第一段开头就点出了讨论的话题 “Researchers in the field of psychology have found that one of the best ways to make an important decision, involves the use of a decision worksheet.”,帮助做重要决定的决策工作表,故答案为A。2. Of the following steps,

45、 which occurs before the three other steps in making a decision worksheet?A. Listing the consequences of each solution.B. Calculating a numerical summary of each solution.C. Deciding which consequences are most important.D. Writing down all possible solutions.答案解析:答案为D。本题为细节题。由第一段 “Although there ar

46、e several variations on the exact format that worksheets can take, they are all similar in their essential aspects.”可知,尽管决策工作表在格式上有不同之处,但是他们在本质方面是类似的。文章接下来就对制作决策工作表的步骤进行了介绍 “Worksheets require defining the problem in a clear way and then listing all possible solutions to the problem. Next, ” 可以推断,第一

47、步就是定义问题并列举所有解答问题的方法,因此答案为D。3. According to decision-making worksheet theory, an optimal decision is defined as one that _.A. has the fewest variables to considerB. uses the most decision worksheetsC. has the most points assigned to itD. is agreed to by the greatest number of people答案解析:答案C。本题为细节推理题。

48、由第一段 “Advocates of the worksheet procedure believe that it will yield optimal, that is, the best decisions.”和“The alternative with the highest number of points emerges as the best decision.”两句话,可知最佳决策是得分最高的那个,因此答案为C。4. The author develops the discussion in para. 1 by means of _.A. describing a proce

49、ssB. classifying types of worksheetsC. providing historical backgroundD. explaining a theory答案解析:答案为A。本题为推理题。结合前面第2、3题的分析可知,作者在第一段开始介绍了决策工作表,后面的内容陈述了决策工作表的制定步骤,因此答案为A。B选项“对决策工作表分类“;C选项“提供历史背景”;D选项“解释一种理论”,显然都不是作者的写作手法,均不选。5. The author states that “On the average, people can keep about seven ideas i

50、n their minds at once” in the last paragraph to explain that _.A. most decisions involve seven stepsB. human mental capacity has limitationsC. some people have difficulty making minor as well as major decisionsD. people can keep more than seven ideas in their minds with practice答案解析:答案为B。本题为句意理解题。结合

51、该句子的上下文 “One of the benefits of a pencil and paper decision-making procedure is that it permits people to deal with more variables than their minds can generally comprehend and remember. On the average, people can keep about seven ideas in their minds at once. A worksheet can be especially useful when the decision involves a large number of variables with complex relationships.” 可知,决策工作表的一个优点就是比起人的大脑一般可以理解和记住的东西来说,它可以处理更多的多样性,一般来说人的大脑一次能有七个想法,然而,当牵涉到很多个不一样的决策、并且它们之间关系比较复杂的时候,决策工作表特别有用。因此作者说人的大脑一次能有七个想法意在表明人的大脑的能力有限。故答案为B。
