47. What do people with a healthy amount of reflection and self-doubt tend to do?
- A. Credit all their successes to hard work.
- B. Strive hard to perfect their skills.
- C. Refrain from acting on impulse.
- D. Deliver a better performance.
答案:B
答案句:A healthy amount of reflection and self- doubt can protect a person from acting impulsively.
参考译文:适度的反思和自我怀疑可以保护一个人不冲动行事。
定位线索:题干“people with a healthy amount of reflection and self-doubt”→答案句取自第3段“A healthy amount of reflection and self- doubt”;文中“protect a person from acting impulsively”对应选项C“Refrain from acting on impulse”。
解析:题干问有适度反思与自我怀疑的人倾向于做什么。官方答案为B“努力打磨自己的技能”:第三段说明偶尔怀疑自己的能力是常事,适度的反思与自我怀疑是有益的(“It is common for people to question their abilities now and again”),这种心态使人不满足于现状、持续精进技能。选项C“避免冲动行事”是本题最强干扰项——它直接取自本段“A healthy amount of reflection and self-doubt can protect a person from acting impulsively”,但该句讲的是自我怀疑的保护作用,不是题目所问“这类人倾向于做什么”;选项A“把成功都归于努力”与原文冒名顶替者的表现(把成功归因于运气等外部因素)相反;选项D“表现更好”原文未提及。
50. What did US psychologists Pauline Clance and Suzanne Imes say about Impostor Phenomenon sufferers?
- A. They are more liable to have depression.
- B. They seldom realise their potential fully.
- C. They will develop mental illnesses.
- D. They will pay higher prices one day.
答案:A
答案句:The Impostor Phenomenon was first described in 1978 by US psychologists Pauline Clance and Suzanne Imes. They observed that there is a particularly high number of successful women who do not think they are very intelligent. The Impostor Phenomenon is not defined as a mental illness. However, people who suffer from it show a higher vulnerability to depression.
参考译文:冒名顶替综合症于1978年由美国心理学家Pauline Clance和Suzanne Imes首次描述。他们观察到,有特别多的成功女性认为自己不太聪明。冒名顶替综合症不被定义为精神疾病。然而,患有此症的人表现出更高的抑郁易感性。
定位线索:题干“US psychologists Pauline Clance and Suzanne Imes”→答案句取自第6段“The Impostor Phenomenon was first described in 1978 by US psychologists Pauline Clance and Suzanne Imes”;文中“show a higher vulnerability to depression”对应选项A“are more liable to have depression”。
解析:题干问美国心理学家Pauline Clance和Suzanne Imes关于冒名顶替综合症患者的说法,答案句明确指出“people who suffer from it show a higher vulnerability to depression”,即更容易患抑郁症,与选项A“are more liable to have depression”同义。选项B无中生有,文中未提及“realise their potential”;选项C偷换概念,文中说“not defined as a mental illness”,并非“will develop mental illnesses”;选项D偷换概念,文中“pay the price”指恐惧而非实际后果,且非这两位心理学家所述。
