6.How much empathy(共鸣)do you feel towards other people?If you saw someone fall off their bike in traffic,would you stop and help-or just walk away?Many people would give into coldness,go about their business and just do nothing.So it was a big surprise when about 100 by standers got together recently to move a bus in east London to help a cyclist trapped under it.A video of theincident went viral on social media.
According to Zoheb,a driver who stopped his car to take part in the rescue,about fivepeople gathered to move the bus.He says:"There was no chance we could do it,it was more an invitation for other people to help,really."
The initiative(主动能力)paid off.Diners from nearby restaurants joined in.There wasn't much coordination but it didn't take long to develop a collective understanding of what the objective was.
Spontaneous(自发的)cooperation among strangers doesn't happen often.People in a crowd are not sure what to do-they don't have a plan.It's one of the reasons,bystanders often do nothing,according to Dr Mark Levine,professor of social psychology at Exeter University inBritain."The presence of others can prevent you from helping",he says.
"The keyto positive group behaviour,"Levine explains,"isbuilding a sense of shared identity.Action has to be decided quickly."Levinesays."Thelonger you leave it,the harder it is to make adecision.If youdon't immediately act then you kind of think'Well,actually I probably couldn't have done anything anyway'."
But the people whotookthe initiative like Zobeb might make a difference.The cyclist ended up in hospital and the images of the collective effort might inspire others to more acts of unity.

解答 24.A 细节题.根据文章内容.Many people would give into coldness,go about their business and just do nothing.So it was a big surprise when about 100 by standers got together recently to move a bus in east London to help a cyclist trapped under it.当看到别人深陷麻烦的时候,很多人会选择视而不见.因此在伦敦,大约有100名旁观者合力帮忙一名被困的骑行人的时候,让人非常的惊讶.结合选项,故选A
25.B 细节题.根据文章内容,According to Zoheb,a driver who stopped his car to take part in the rescue,about fivepeople gathered to move the bus.He says:"There was no chance we could do it,it was more an invitation for other people to help,really."由此可知,Zoheb把车停到旁边加入救援行动,大约有5个人在推车.他说:当时我们的力量微小,做不了什么,但我们可以通过这个行为感染到其他人,让他们来帮忙.结合选项,可知Zoheb是一个热心的人,故选B
26.C 细节题.根据文章内容,Spontaneous(自发的)cooperation among strangers doesn't happen often.People in a crowd are not sure what to do-they don't have a plan…"The presence of others can prevent you from helping",陌生人之间的自发合作是不常见的,在没有计划的时候,一群人会不知道该做什么,他人的存在会阻止你去帮助他人.结合选项,推断出陌生人之间很少合作,故选C
27.D 推理题.根据文章内容,But the people whotookthe initiative like Zobeb might make a difference.The cyclist ended up in hospital and the images of the collective effort might inspire others to more acts of unity.像 Zobeb 这种主动帮忙的会使得事情大有不同,最终被围困的骑行人被解救送去了医院,而集体力量会激励更多这样好的行为的,故选D
