9、读理解 (满分35分；A-C篇每小题2.5分，D篇每小题2分)(A)Communication technologies are far from equal when it comes to conveying the truth. The first study to compare honesty across a range of communication media has found that people are twice as likely to tell lies in phone conversations as they are in emails. The fact

10、 that emails arc automatically recorded - and can come back to haunt (困扰）you - appears to be the key to the finding.Jeff Hancock of Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, asked 80 students to keep a communication diary for a week. In it they noted the number of conversations or email exchanges they

11、 had lasting more than 10 minutes, and confessed to how many lies they told. Hancock then worked out the number of lies per conversation for each medium. He found that lies made up 14 per cent of emails, 21 per cent of instant messages, 27 per cent of face-to-face interactions and an astonishing 37

12、per cent of phone calls.His results to be presented at the conference on human-computer interaction in Vienna, Austria, in April，have surprised psychologists. Some expected emailers to be the biggest liars, reasoning that because deception makes people uncomfortable, the detachment (非直接接触）of emailin

13、g would make it easier to lie. Others expected people to lie more in face-to-face exchanges because we are most practiced at that form of communication.But Hancock says it is also crucial whether a conversation is being recorded and could be reread, and whether it occurs in real time. People appear

14、to be afraid to lie when they know the communication could later be used to hold them to account, he says. This is why fewer lies appear in email than on the phone.People are also more likely to lie in real timein an instant message or phone call, say than if they have time to think of a response, s

15、ays Hancock. He found many lies are spontaneous (脱口而出的）responses to an unexpected demand, such as： “Do you like my dress?”Hancock hopes his research will help companies work out the best ways for their employees to communicate. For instance, the phone might be the best medium for sales where employe

16、es are encouraged to stretch the truth. But, given his result, work assessment where honesty is a priority, might be best done using email.21.Why are people more honest when using email?A.Because it takes more time to think than to speak.B.Because lies in emails may do harm to their credit.C.Because

17、 of the detachment of emailing.D.Because they are practiced to be more honest in emailing.22.Which of the following is contrary to peoples common beliefs?A.Emails contain more lies than other communication media.B.Face-to-face communication contains more lies.C.Face-to-face communication contains mo

18、re lies because it is not recorded.D.Deception makes people uncomfortable, which reduces mistakes in phone calls.23.What does the phrase “to stretch the truth” in the last paragraph mean?A. to tell the truthB. to understate somethingC. to overestimate somethingD. to deceive people (B)Dear 17-year-ol

19、d self,When your Laker dream comes true tomorrow, you need to figure out a way to invest in the future of your family. This sounds simple, and you may think its a no-brainer, but take some time to think on it further. I said INVEST. I did not say GIVE. Let me explain. Purely giving material things t

20、o your siblings（兄弟姐妹）may appear to be the right decision. So you buy them a car, a big house, and pay all of their bills. You want them to live a beautiful, comfortable life, right?But the day will come when you realize that as much as you believed you were doing the right thing, you were actually h

21、olding them back. You will come to understand that you were taking care of them because it made YOU feel good, it made You happy to see them smiling and without a care in the worldand that was extremely selfish of you. While you were feeling satisfied with yourself, you were slowly eating away at th

22、eir own dreams and ambitions. You were adding material things to their lives, but subtracting the most precious gifts of all. Invest in their future, dont just give.Use your success, wealth and influence to put them in the best position to realize their own dreams and find their true purpose. Put th

Hold them to the same level of hard work and dedication that it took for you to get to where you are now, and where you will eventually go. Im writing you now so that you can begin this process immedi

24、ately, and so that you dont have to deal with the hurt and struggle of weaning (断绝) them off the addiction that you facilitated. That addiction only leads to anger, hatred and jealousy from everybody involved, including yourself. As time goes on, you will see them grow independently and have their o

25、wn ambitions and their own lives, and your relationship with all of them will be much better as a result.Trust me, setting things up right from the beginning will avoid a ton of tears and headache, some of which remains to this day.

While in the past universities have often focused on students social life and attractions of the university

30、town in recruitment campaigns, they are now concentrating on more tangible attractions, such as employment prospects, engagement with industry, and lecturer contact hours, making clear exactly what students are going to get for their money.The problem for universities is that if those benefits fail

31、to materialize, students notice. That worries Rob Behrens, chief executive of the Office of the Independent Adjudicator (OIA) , which deals with student complaints. “Universities need to be extremely careful that. they describe the reality of whats going to happen to students,” he says. “Because com

32、petition is going to get greater for attracting students，there is a danger that universities will go the extra mile.” One university told prospective engineering students they would be able to design a car and race it at Brands Hatch, which never happened, he says. “If universities spent as much mon

33、ey on handling complaints and appeals appropriately as they spend on marketing, they would do better at keeping students, and in the National Student Survey returns,” he says.Ongoing research by Heist tracking prospective 2012 students suggests that they are not only becoming more sophisticated in t

34、hinking about what they want from a university, but are also spending more time researching evidence to back up institutional claims.Hence the growing importance of the student survey and league tables. From next September, all institutions will also be expected to publish on their websites key info

35、rmation sets, allowing easier comparison between institutionsand between promises and realityof student satisfaction levels, course information, and the types of jobs and salaries graduates go on to.As a result, it is hardly surprising that universities are beginning lo change the way they market th
