题目内容

When several different people look at the same person, it is not unusual for each of them to see different things; when you alone observe one behavior or one person at two different times, you may see different things. The following are but some of the factors that lead to these varying perceptions(感知,感觉): k+s-5#u 

Each person’s perceptions of others are formed by his or her own cultural conditioning, education, and personal experience.

Sometimes perceptions differ because of what we choose to observe and how we deal with what we’ve observed. It is not necessarily true that person’s perception is based on observations of a particular person. Your observations may be totally controlled by some. Your observations may be totally controlled by what others have told you about this person; or you may focus primarily on the situation or role relationship. Most people do not use the same yardstick(尺码) to measure their parents, their friends, and strangers.

Sometimes we see only what we want to see what may be obverse(正面的)to others because of our own needs, desires, or temporary(临时的) emotional states. This is a process known as selective perception. Selective perception is obviously more difficult when contradictory(相反的) information is particularly obvious, but it can be done. We can ignore the stimulus(刺激)—“He’s basically a good boy, so what I saw was not shoplifting(入店行窃).”  We can reduce the importance of the contradictory information —“All kids get into mischief(顽皮). Taking a book from the bookstore isn’t such a big deal.” We call change the meaning of the contradictory information—“It wasn’t shoplifting because he was going to pay for it later.”...

Why might the observation of the same person by two people at the same time differ?

       A.Because they are from different family.

       B.Because they have different opinions.

       C.Because their yardsticks are not the same.

       D.Because their thoughts are different. k+s-5#u 

According the passage, our perceptions are formed by ________.

       A.our own cultural conditions, education and experience

       B.our own thoughts, aims and knowledge

       C.the society’s rules, laws and needs

       D.the society’s values, standards and requires

From the passage, we know _____ causes us to think a boy’s shoplifting isn’t serious.

       A.our kindness           B.our experience        

C.the society’s require                             D.selective perception

What does the passage mainly talk about?

       A.It mainly talks about the results of different perceptions.

       B.It mainly talks about the factors that lead to different perceptions. k+s-5#u 

       C.It mainly talks about the kinds of perceptions.

       D.It mainly talks about the yardsticks.

  The trend in everyday conversation is to use grandiose(夸大的)words.“Outstanding” is the

new “good,”  “amazing” is the new “OK, ” and “huge” is the new “big.”

    I was in a restaurant in Washington D.C.last weekend and every question I asked was answered with exaggeration.

    Me:How is the salmon?

    Sever:Fantastic!

    Me:Does it come with rice?

    Sever:Absolutely!

    Would a “good” and a “yes” have been enough? Of course!

    My father is an average-sized man.He hasn’t gained weight or height for the past 30 years. Therefore, his size remains the same.However,in the same amount of time,his T-shirt size has gone from small to medium to large to extra large.

  The reason for the exaggerated word is clear:we are bored with our lives. We want the next

—next thing now.Immediately!

    And we also want others to think that we still care,that we can still be delighted,that we know that everything is just great.Even when deep inside we know it can’t be.Everything can’t be great.

  I’m not a scientist,so many methods of proof leave little to be desired,or a lot to be desired,or an immensity(无限).   

  Listen to the voices around you.Listen to your own voices.There is nothing on the radio that is good or bad,weather is either beautiful or horrible.

  Listen,the next time when someone asks you something and you agree,because when you

could simply say “yes”, instead you will say “absolutely’’ or “without doubt ” or “Oh,yeah,unquestionably ---- absolutely without doubt."

  Have people forgotten what it is like to be OK? Simply OK with what they have and who they are? If everything is outstanding,if everything is the most amazing thing ever,is anything ever amazing at all?

It is about the use of an exciting smart phone, an important part of the LoB which is in the early stages of development is an online library of figures of the city being built by a digital content company in Cahoots, in which users will be encouraged to add to and comment on the material.
