四、阅读理解

A

For a long time people have believed that high self-esteem is the key to success. However, new research shows that focusing just on building self-esteem may not be helpful. In some cases,

having high self-esteem can bring bad results if it makes you less likeable or more upset when you fail at something.

“Forget about self-esteem,” says one of the psychologists involved in the new research. “It’s not the most important thing.”

This idea may sound a bit strange to you because studies also show that people with high self-esteem are less likely to be anxious, shy, or lonely than those with low self-esteem. In short, to feel good does you good.

But, after reviewing about 18,000 studies on self-esteem, Roy Baumeister, a psychologist at Florida State University, has found that building up your self-esteem will not necessarily make you a better person. He believes that violent and evil people often have the highest self-esteem of all. He also said, “There’s no evidence that kids with high self-esteem do better in school.”

All types of people have problems. “People with high self-esteem can have big egos(自我) that can make them less likeable to their peers,” said Kathleen V ohs, a psychology professor at Columbia University. “People with high self-esteem tend to (趋向于) think more of themselves,”Vohs says. People with low self-esteem are more likely to rely on their friends when they need help.

Researchers say it is best to listen to and support other people. Find positive ways to contribute to society. If you fail at something, try to learn from the experience. The best therapy(药方), as they suggest, is to recognize your faults, accept yourself, understand your weaknesses and then do something about them.

51. What’s the author’s attitude towards high self-esteem?

53. What does the underlined part “a better person” probably mean?

A. A person who is friendly and kind.

B. A person who is successful and wealthy.

C. A person who is successful and brave.

D. A person who is helpful and supportive.

A. People used to think that high self-esteem led to success.

B. According to the psychologists in the passage, high self-esteem is more negative than positive.

C. People with low self-esteem are less likely to depend on their friends.

The role of a newspaper is to present and comment on the news. It is vital for keeping people well-informed on current affairs. In most Western countries, journalists try to shape the ideas and opinions of their readers, since in Western countries all newspapers are independent of the government. Some newspaper owners support liberal ideas including economic policies that help poor people. Other owners want policies such as lower taxes for rich people and less money to be given to poor people. You can almost judge the political ideas of a person in the West by looking

at the newspaper he reads.

All newspapers report national and international news. They give the facts but also provide opinions on controversial issues in the editorials and columns of opinion. The readers of the newspaper can also comment on these editorials or articles. There are many informative articles

too as well as reviews of new films and books, etc. These are very important, for if a film or book

gets good reviews it will often become more successful.

All these articles require many journalists who are experts in different areas of life. All these articles come together and are checked by the chief editor of the newspaper. When he or she has made a decision on the articles, the newspaper is prepared for printing. All this work means that

the journalists must work together as a team because there is a lot of pressure when you work in a newspaper office. There are constant deadlines and articles have to be fitted round advertisements, photographs and much, much more.

56. What does the underlined word “be fitted” mean?

A. be suitable

B. be put

C. be read

D. be measured

57. What articles comment on controversial issues?

A. Editorials and opinion columns.

B. News stories.

C. Some of the informative articles.

D. Jokes and humour.

58. Which is true about the journalists in Western countries?

A. There’s no time limit for their report articles.

B. They have no right to influence the reader s’opinions.

C. A newspaper can come out with just a journalist working individually.

D. Journalists must submit their articles before the due date.

59. Why are good reviews important to books?

A. Good reviews are excellent introduction to books.

B. Readers especially favour books with good reviews.

C. Good reviews can make readers feel relaxed and comfotable.

D. Good reviews can bring a large circulation of the books reviewed.

60. Which of the following sentences best fits at the end of the last paragraph?

A. The number of people needed to produce a newspaper varies greatly.

B. The staff of a daily newspaper is headed by a publisher.

news-stands on schedule.
