In the concert, someone begins to clap and suddenly the whole room joins in. You do, too. Why?Sometimes we feel we are acting correctly when we do the same as others. The more people follow an idea, the better or truer we think the idea is. Its the social proof (社会认同感) that works.The scientist Asch carried out an experiment. It shows how social proof can influence us. In a room, a man is shown Line 1, and next to it are three lines (A, B, C). A is longer, C is shorter and B is as long as Line 1. He must tell which of the three lines is as long as Line 1. When the man is alone, he gives the correct answer B. Then, five other men enter the room, and each of them gives the answer C as they were told to. Now the man changes his idea and gives the answer C. Asch got the same result many times among different subjects (实验对象).Why do we act like this? Well, in the past, following others was a way to keep from danger. Suppose that 5000 years ago you were hunting (打猎) with friends. Suddenly, they all ran away. What would you have done? Would you have stayed? No, you would have run, too. We are descendants (后代) of those who copied others action. It is so deeply planted in our mind that we still use it now.Social proof has special power. The advertising industry, for example, often makes use of it. So be capful whenever a company says its product is the most popular.（1）At the beginning of the passage, the writer leads in the topic by _. A . telling a storyB . giving examplesC . answering questionsD . showing a map（2）According to Paragraph 3, the experiment by Asch shows _. A . following others is always rightB . social proof may change peoples ideasC . its difficult to carry out the experimentD . people can study better if they are alone（3）The underlined word It in Paragraph g refers to _. A . running with othersB . hunting with friendsC . copying others actionD . doing something different（4）According to the passage, we can infer (推断) that _. A . its important to run with others anytimeB . products in the advertisement are the bestC . we mustnt copy others action to keep safeD . we need to think twice before following others19. （6.0分）阅读理解 Emily St. Denny is fifteen years old.
