【题目】根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Although people value intelligence—understanding, reasoning, the ability to learn—they also respect wisdom, or the knowledge and experience that they gain over a lifetime. In some ways, wisdom is like beauty: we value it, we desire it, we know it when we see it, but it is nearly impossible to pin down such a nice quality. 【1】
1. Working at being social.
Studies show that people who stay connected to others show higher levels of wisdom than those who remain alone. 【2】 Next time you’re at a party or gathering, single out someone who’s standing alone; and strike up a conversation.
2. 【3】
Wisdom involves being able to understand all sides of an issue without letting personal feelings gel in the way. Owning your mind means realizing that everyone has a life story that influences their actions. During the course of every day, make a note of the issues that annoy you, and take a moment to see them from the other side.
3. Learning how to say “I could be wrong”.
A wise person understands that it is impossible to know everything and that life is likely to take unexpected turns. 【4】 Admitting that there are times when you could be mistaken will go a long way in strengthening your fame.
4. Reading the news.
【5】 If you don’t already read a daily paper or news online, start by going through a single front-page article from a major respected news source.
Almost everyone has the potential to become wiser, particularly if you strengthen these habits.
A. Practicing being open-minded.
B. Sharing good news with your friends.
C. But researchers have tried and here’s what they’ve found.
D. Recognizing your errors can lead only to even greater wisdom.
E. Make an effort to join a new club, or invite an old friend for coffee.
F. You do not have to admit your mistakes if you are really unwilling to.
G. You cannot make balanced choices unless you understand world circumstances.
【答案】
【1】C
【2】E
【3】A
【4】D
【5】G
【解析】每个人都渴望拥有智慧,那么怎样使自己变成一个智慧的人,文章给了我们一些建议。
【1】C考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。第一段主要讲智慧的重要性以及人们对它的渴求。下文讲怎样使自己更有智慧的方法。C项“研究者们努力尝试有下面这些发现”承上启下,故选C。
【2】E考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。本段讲多参加社交活动,E项“努力参加新俱乐部或邀请老朋友喝咖啡”符合本段内容,故选E。
【3】A考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。本段建议我们不要感情用事,要全方位看问题。A项“要学会豁达开朗”概括本段内容,故选A。
【4】D考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。本段讲学会认错会让人明智,D项表达了此意,符合本段内容,故选D。
【5】G考查对上下文的理解和推理判断能力。本段建议多看新闻,了解世界。G项“只有你了解了世界现状才能平衡地做出选择”符合本段内容。故选G。
