11、Whatwillpeoplenotdowhentheyfeelpanic?

A、Theybecomeuncoordinated

B、Theybecomeirrational.

C、Theyfaceanimmediatethreat.

D、Theybreakdowncooperativesocialrelationships.

标准答案：C

知识点解析：细节题。艰据题干定位至原文第一段，可知选项A“变得不协调”。选

项B“变得不理智”和选项D“互相合作的社会关系的断裂”均为人们面临恐慌时的不

正常表现。而选项C“人们感觉到直接的威胁”是产生恐慌的原因，不是恐慌的表

现。

12、Whichofthefollowingcannotcausetheprocessofpanic?

A、Whenpeopledesperatelytrytoescapefromthesourceofdanger

B、Whenasuddencrisisoccurs.

C、Whenapassengeraircraftmakesacrashlanding.

D、Whenpeoplegathersattheexit.

标准答案：D

知识点解析：推断题。可用排除法解题。根据原文第二段可知，选项A“逃离危险

源”。选项B“发生突然危机”。选项C“客机紧急降落”均能导致恐慌。选项D”在安

全出口处聚集”没有体现出紧急的形势，因而不会造成恐慌。因此，D为正确选

项。

13>WhichofthefollowingisNOTtrueaccordingtothepassage?

A、Allofthepanicsarecausedbynaturalreasons.

B、Peoplegetintopanicpossiblybecauseoftherumor.

C、In1929,AmericansworsenedtheGreatDepressionthemselvestoprotecttheirown

interests.

D^Panicsoftencauseagreatlossineconomyorhumanresources.

标准答案：A

知识点解析：推断题。根据第二段第三句"Panicsareespeciallylikelytooccurin

unusualconditionsinwhicheverydaynormshavelittlerelevance,suchasfires,

floods,earthquakesormilitaryinvasions.”可知，引起恐慌的特定条件主要有：火

灾、洪水、地震、军事入侵。前三项为自然因素，而军事入侵可视为人为因素。根

据1929年美国经济大萧条的经典例证也可知，人为因素在引起恐慌中占到了很大

的比重。因此选项A“纯属自然原因所致”不符合文意，为正确选项。

14、Whatdoesthewordk4botdenecks,,(Para)meaninthispassage?

A、Anarrowpartofabotde

B、Astyleofguitar.

C、Anescaperoute

D、Anobstructedsection.

标准答案：D

知识点解析：语意题。根据第二段第五句可知，人们的恐慌引起了人员堵塞，交通

不畅。因此，bottleneck在文中应该是选项D“阻塞”的意思。

15、Whatisthepurposeofthepassage?

A、Toanalyzethecausesofthepanicsandteachpeoplehowtopreventthem.

B、Tointroducedifferentkindsofpanics.

C、Tohelppeoplesetupdailynormsthatcanpreventpanics.

此，选项A符合本文主旨。选项B”介绍各种恐慌类型，选项C“帮助人们建立日

常准则以防止恐慌”。选项D”告诉人们由恐慌引起的令人病心的例子”均非原文的

写作目的。
