四、阅读理解(共4题,共 20分)

24、Bad news travels fast when you watch the evening news or read the morning papers, it seems that things that get the most coverage are all sad events or situations like wars, earthquakes, floods, fires and murders.

This is the classic rule for mass media (大众传媒). ―They want your eyeballs and don’t care how you’re feeling,‖ Jonah Berger, a psychologist at the University of Pennsylvania, US, told The New York Times.

But with social media getting more and more popular, information is now being spread in different ways, and researchers are discovering new rules good news can actually spread faster and farther than bad accidents and other sad stories.

Berger and his colleague Katherine Milkman looked at thousands of articles on The New York Times website and analyzed (分析) the ―most e-mailed‖ list for six months.

One of his findings was that articles in the science part were much more likely to make the list. Those science stories waked up feelings of awe (敬畏) and made the readers want to share this positive emotion with others.

Besides science stories, readers were also found to be likely to share articles that were exciting or funny. “The more positive an article was, the more likely it was to be shared,”Berger wrote in his new book. “For example, stories about newcomers falling in love with New York City,” he writes, “seemed to be shared more than the death of a popular zookeeper.”

But does all this good news actually make the readers feel better? Not necessarily.

According to a study by researchers at Harvard University, people are more likely to say more positive things about themselves when they’re talking to a bigger audience, rather than just one person, which helps explain all the perfect vacations that keep showing up on micro blogs. This, researchers found, makes people think that life is unfair and that they’re less happy than their friends.

But no worries. There’s a quick and easy way to take the despair from you that you get from viewing other people’s seemingly perfect lives turn on the television and watch the news. There is always someone doing worse than you are.

【1】 In Berger’s opinion, bad news covers most papers because ______.

A. the public cares for reading sad events

B. mass media wants to attract the public’s attention

C. the public tries to share positive feelings with each other

D. mass media wants the public to help those unlucky people

【2】Which of the following might be e-mailed most according to Berger?

A. The perfect vacation of your friend.

B. The death of a popular zookeeper.

C. The story of a creative scientist.

D. The flood hitting a small town.

【3】We can infer from the passage that ______.

A. bad news always makes people sad

B. good news sometimes has negative influence

C. people can remove despair by reading good news

D. people prefer to share bad news with a bigger audience

【4】 What would be the best title for the passage?

A. Good News Spreads Fast

B. The Power of Good News

C. The Effect of Bad News

D. Bad News Travels Fast

 

25、   Three people were sitting around a table in a restaurant in Brazil. How much do you think each of them tipped (给小费)? The British asked, “It’s common to tip 10 percent, right?” The American woman cried, “Oh, I was planning to leave 20 percent!” And the Chinese asked,“What’s a tip?”

Although it is not a custom to tip in China, tipping is a big deal in Western countries. When traveling to countries like the US and Canada, it is common to tip about 10 to 15 percent of the bill.

Usually, people give tips to a waiter or waitress when they eat in a restaurant. The US tops the list of the biggest restaurant tips, with waiters and waitresses expecting to get 10 to 25 percent of the total bill.

So if you order $100 (about 662 yuan) worth of food, you are expected to pay your waiter at least $15, making your total payment $115.

But why is this? Many waiters and waitresses get paid below the US minimum wage (最低工资) and work for tips to make up for that. According to the American travel website TripAdvisor, some states pay their servers (服务员) only $2.13 per hour. It is not just for waiters, either. Hotel maids, hairdressers and taxi drivers also usually work for tips.

Besides the US, tipping is also popular in some Southeast Asian countries, such as Indonesia and Thailand. However, in Japan there is a no-tipping culture and you may actually offend the waiter if you try to give him money.

1The example in the restaurant in Brazil shows that _____.

A.British people know how much to tip in a restaurant in Brazil

B.tipping amounts differ from country to country in western countries.

C.it is a custom for people to tip in a restaurant in China

2If you order $280 worth of food in the US, then it’s common to tip _____.

A.$14 B.$42 C.$50

3Why is tipping so important in the US?

A.Because it is advised by the travel website.

B.Because waiters will offer better service

C.Because servers there are not well paid

4From the story, we can learn a lot EXCEPT ______.

A.Tipping is popular around the world.

B.People in some Asian countries also tip.

C.It is OK to tip a waitress in Japan.

5How many countries which have the tipping culture are mentioned?

A.5 B.6 C.7
