第二周 概要写作 单元测验

1、 问题: Read the following paragraph and compare the summaries. Decide which is the best.Researchers in France and the United States have recently reported that baboons are able to think abstractly. It has been known for some time that chimpanzees are capable of abstract thought, but baboons are a more distant relation to mankind. In the experiment, scientists trained two baboons to use a personal computer and a joystick. The animals had to match computer designs which were basically the same, but had superficial differences. In the experiment the baboons performed better than would be expected by chance. The researchers describe their study in an article in the Journal of Experimental Psychology.
选项:
A: French and American scientists have shown for the first time that baboons have the ability to think in
 an abstract way. The animals were taught to use a computer, and then had to select patterns that were similar, which they did at a rate better than chance.
B: Baboons are a kind of monkey more distant from
 man than chimpanzees. Although it is known that chimpanzees are able to think abstractly, until recently it was not clear if baboons could do the same. But new research by various scientists has shown that this is so.
C:According to a recent article in the Journal of Experimental Psychology, baboons are able to 
think in an abstract way. The article describes how researchers trained two baboons to use a personal computer and a joystick. The animals did better than would be expected. –Academic writing: A Handbook for International Students by Stephen Bailey, 2006, London & New York: Routledge, p. 34
D:

2、 问题: Read the following paragraph and compare the summaries. Decide which is the best.Sociolinguistics is concerned with the ethnography of speaking, that is, with cultural and subcultural patterns of speech variation in different social contexts. The sociolinguist might ask, for example, what kinds of things one talks about in casual conversations with a stranger. A foreigner may know English vocabulary and grammar well but may not know that one typically chats with a stranger about the weather or where one comes from, and not about what one ate that day or how much money one earns. A foreigner may be familiar with much of the culture of a North American city, but if that person divulges the real state of his or her health and feelings to the first person who says, “How are you?” he or she has much to learn about “small talk” in North American English. Similarly, North Americans tend to get confused in societies where greetings are quite different from ours. People in some other societies may ask a greeting, “Where are you going?” or “What are you cooking?” Some Americans may think such questions are rude; others may try to answer in excruciating detail, not realizing that only vague answers are expected, just as we don’t really expect a detailed answer when we ask people “How are you?” –Judith Resnick & Lanny Lester, Text & Thought, pp. 194-195
选项:
A:A foreigner may be familiar with the English language but not with the appropriate topics for making small talk.
B: North Americans may not respond appropriately to greetings in other societies.
C:Conversation differs around the world.
D:Sociolinguists are interested in how speech is used in different cultures and different social contexts, such as in making small talk and greeting people.
答案: 【Sociolinguists are interested in how speech is used in different cultures and different social contexts, such as in making small talk and greeting people.
