试题详情

Matches made over the Internet often do not last long because people end up choosing unsuitable

partners and forming emotional bonds before meeting face-to-face, an Australian university researcher

has found.

Women may especially find Mr. Wrong, as they tend to be attracted by fine comments or clever

emails, said psychologist Matthew Bambling from the Queensland University of Technology.

“You can never assume things are the way they seem online,” Bambling said. “The fact that they

can write a clever comment or a witty email doesn’t mean they will be Mr. Right, that’s for sure,” he

said, adding some men use the concept of “netting”, sending emails to dozens of women and hoping

one might respond. Bambling said you can find a partner online, but warned those using the Web to

find love to be aware of the traps. “There’s definitely an uncontrolled effect online,” he said, with

people more likely to exaggerate their good points while hiding anything negative. “Few guys for

example would say ‘look, I’m a middle aged alcoholic who’s been married five times, pick me’.

They’re going to present themselves as a good catch.” He said it was easy for people to quickly invest

too much emotionally in an online relationship because they don’t see the full picture of the person

they are emailing.

Bambling said people can avoid many of the problems by meeting early in the actual relationship,

rather than by getting to know each other only by email. He suggests couples arrange to meet over

coffee after a few emails, which will help people from building up a fantasy image of their match.

“The main thing to remember is to make real life contact as soon as possible if you are interested in

someone, because then you will know contact as soon as possible if you are interested in someone,

because then you will know if a relationship is a possibility.” He said.

1.Why were women quite likely to find Mr. Wrong over the Internet?

A. Because they often judge a person by his appearance.

B. Because single women usually felt more lonely.

C. Because the emotional bonds were hard to break.

D. Because they were easily attracted by fine comments.

2.About the online relationship Bambling suggests we should be ______.

A. rejective B. favorable C. cautious D. hopeful

3.The underlined word “exaggerate” in Paragraph 3 probably means “______”.

A. enlarge B. invent C. remove D. cover

4.What is suggested by Bambling for a better online relationship?

A. Writing clever comments or emails to girls frequently.

B. Finding a partner online through one night respond.

C. Making real life contact before further development.

D. Investing much emotion in your partner.

I had made up my mind a long time ago that I would not give a homeless person money, because I could never be sure what that money would be used for. Instead, I decided, I would buy them a sandwich, a cold drink on a hot day, a cup of coffee, whatever I could manage.
I was out recently and saw a homeless man outside of a Starbucks. I decided I would buy this man lunch. I bought a sandwich and soda.
Just as I was leaving the store, two policemen were approaching the man. Obviously the shop owners had complained of his wandering and the police were there to draw him away from the storefronts. Just as they were about to wake him, I asked one of the officers if it was all right if I just gave the man something before he went. I was not sure why I asked the permission but the policeman said sure and I just left the bag in the man’s cart, got in my car and drove off.
As I was driving off I remember thinking “I hope people saw that”. Then I had to seriously ask myself why I hoped people had seen me give the man a sandwich from Starbucks. Was it because I wanted people to think, “She’s such a nice person!”? Why did I hope others had seen me do it? I continued to wonder this all evening.
The next morning, it came to me that I wanted people to have witnessed that small act of kindness not so that I would receive credit and praise but so that they might be inspired to do the same and in so doing that others still would witness their acts of kindness. Thus the whole spirit of pity and giving would be lasting.
1.The underlined word “Starbucks” in the second paragraph is the name of a _________.
A．shop             B．bookstore         C．bank             D．man
2.When the author saw the homeless man, he was __________.
A．begging outside                        B．buying goods
C．staying awake                          D．falling asleep
3.What’s the purpose of the passage?
A．To show the author is great.
B．To encourage people to help others.
C．To introduce an experience that changed the author.
D．To call on people not to give money to a homeless man.
4.The author can be best described as __________.
A．bad-tempered                         B．hard-working
C．kind-hearted                           D．self-confident
