takenatoll

ontheenvironment.(另一方面，我們的旅行takenatoll環境)”中動詞短語takenatollon的意思是“損害”，與B項“Damaged”同義。故選B項。【30題詳析】推理判斷題。根據第四段中“Andeventhosepeoplewhoregularlyconsumeorbehaveinanenvironmentallyfriendlyfashionactuallytemporarilyforgettheirenvironmentalcommitments,andbehavelikenormaltourists.Theydosuffersomekindofecoguilt,butneverthelesstheycontinuetotravel,andtheycontinuetofly.(即使是那些經常以環保方式消費或行事的人，實際上也會暫時忘記他們的環保承諾，表現得像普通游客一樣。他們確實會有某種生態負罪感，但盡管如此，他們還是繼續旅行，繼續坐飛機)”可知，盡管一些游客有環保意識，但很難改變自己的旅游行為，說明游客很難受到環保意識的影響。故選A項。【31題詳析】細節理解題。根據最后一段中“However,tosomeextent,Ihopetherewillbeasignificantriseinthecostoftravel,oratleastinairtravel.Inmyopinion,onlyinthiswaycanpeoplerealizethevalueoftravelexperienceandreallyenjoyit.(然而，在某種程度上，我希望旅行成本，至少是航空旅行成本會大幅上升。在我看來，只有這樣，人們才能意識到旅行體驗的價值并真正享受它)”可知，作者希望機票更貴是因為他希望通過增加旅行成本的方式來幫助人們重視他們的旅行體驗。故選C項。DImagineyou’repurchasingalotteryticket,andyourheartracesasyoucheckthenumbers.Toyouramazement,you’vematchedfiveoutofsix!Whatwillyoudonext?Willyoubuyanotherticket?Formostpeople,theanswerisabig“Yes”.Whenwecomeclosetoachievingagoal,weoftengainapowerfulenergythatcandriveustowardfuturesuccess.MonicaWadhwa,amarketingprofessoratTempleUniversity,suggeststhatnotwinningcanactuallymotivateusmorethanwinningitself.Inherstudies,Wadhwaconductedvariousexperimentstotestthisconcept.Inoneexperiment,participantsplayedacellphonegamewiththetaskofrevealingeightdiamonds.Afterthegame,thosewhonearlywon—bygettingsevendiamonds—walkedfastertoclaimtheirrewardthanbothwinnersandlosers.“Theirmotivationisgettingintensified(加強),butthentheymissit...Sowhathappenstothismotivation?Ithookson,givingyoutheenergyforthenextgoalthatyouhave.”Wadhwaexplains,“Asforthewinners,theyinchtowardtheirgoal,theyachieveit,andtheirmotivationissatisfied,whichleavesthemwithnoneedtofightforanythingelse.”However,thisfireinyourbellyshouldbeusedwisely.Suchmotivationcanpushyoutowardsignificantgoals,orbewastedondistractions.Inanotherexperimentatafashion-accessorystorewhereshoppersweregivenscratch-offlotterytickets,thenear-winnersshoppedmoreandspentmorethanbothwinnersandlosers.Toharness(利用)thisenergy,Wadhwaadvisessettinggoalsthatareslightlybeyondourreach.Sheencouragesmanagerstoestablishchallengingyetachievabletargetsfortheirteams.Additionally,sherecommendsthatparentshighlighthowclosetheirchildrencametowinningwhentheyexperiencelosses,fosteringresilienceandmotivation.Byunderstandingtheuniquepowerofnearlywinning,wecanturnsetbacksintosteppingstonesforfuturesuccess.AsWadhwaputsit.“Winnersreallydonottakeitall.”32.What’sthepurposeofparagraph1?A.Tostresstheimportanceofwinning.
