三、阅读理解
20. When people find themselves in difficult conflicts, they often turn to mediation(调解). Mediators are advised to listen attentively, avoid favoring the ideas of one party, and make both sides feel at ease.
Surprisingly, new research that my colleagues and I conducted suggests that, to effectively help people settle their conflicts, mediators should adopt an hostile (敌对的) attitude rather than a calming one. A hostile mediator, we find, brings better results than a nice one.
Why would adding more negativity to an already hostile situation prove beneficial? Consider how parents typically react when they can’t get their children to stop quarreling: “I don’t care who started it —both of yo u, go to your rooms!” At first sight, a calm mediator seems likely to be more effective. But as anyone with brothers or sisters knows parents, seemingly unsympathetic treatment of the situation can have an unusual effect. Children who were troubling each other just now suddenly become more reasonable due to their unkind parents. In our research, we created situations in which pairs of negotiators were part of a heated conflict. In some cases, the mediator had a “nice” approach — calm and polite. In others, he was hostile — aggressive and somewhat rude. Across different types of conflicts, we found that negotiators were more willing and able to reach an agreement in the presence of a hostile mediator than in the presence of a nice one.
The main result of the test is not that hostility pays off. In fact, recent research has documented the social costs of negative behavior. For example, being the target of rude behavior reduces people’s performance on a variety of tasks. Other research shows the social benefits of positive behavior. People are more likely to close deals and become future business partners.
Even with the widespread social benefits of positive behavior and costs of negative behavior, hostility can pay off in certain situations.
12. What can we lear n about parents’ settlement of conflicts in paragraph 2?
A. It’s calming and wise.
B. It’s unfriendly but effective.
C. It’s commonly adopted.
D. It harms family relationship.
13. How does the author support his viewpoints?
A. By presenting facts.
B. By making comparison.
C. By analyzing causes and effects.
D. By giving examples and experimenting.
14. Which best describes the author’s attitude in the text?
A. Concerned
B. Doubtful
C. Objective
D. Positive
15. What could be the title of the text?
A. The Costs of Negative Behavior
B. The Surprising Power of Hostility
C. The Benefits of Positive Behavior
D. The Importance of Effective Mediation
参考答案：
12. B 13. D 14. C 15. B
【分析】
本文是一篇说明文。

文章讲述的是当人们发现自己陷入困难的冲突时，往往求助于调解。

作为调解员要认真听取意见，避免偏袒一方的意见，使双方感到放心。

其实即使积极行为有广泛的社会效益，消极行为要付出代价，敌意也能在某些情况下得到消除。

【12题详解】
推理判断题。

根据第二段中Across different types of conflicts, we found that negotiators were more willing and able to reach an agreement in the presence of a hostile mediator than in the presence of a nice one.“在不同类型冲突中，我们发现谈判者在有敌意的调停者面前比在友好的调停者面前更愿意也更有能力达成协议。

”可知，关于父母如何解决冲突，我们可以从第二段中了解到这是不友好的但有效。

故选B。

【13题详解】
推理判断题。

根据第三段中For example, being the target of rude behavior reduces people’s performance on a variety of tasks. Other research shows the social benefits of positive behavior. People are more likely to close deals and become future business partners.“例如，成为粗鲁行为的目标会降低人们在各种任务中的表现。

其他研究显示积极行为的社会效益。

人们更有可能达成交易，成为未来的商业伙伴。

”可知，作者通过举例和实验支持他的观点。

故选D。

【14题详解】
推理判断题。

根据最后一段Even with the widespread social benefits of positive behavior and costs of negative behavior, hostility can pay off in certain situations.“即使积极行为有广泛的社会效益，消极行为要付出代价，但敌意也能在某些情况下得到回报。

”由此可知，作者的态度是“客观的”。

故选C。

【15题详解】
主旨大意题。

根据第一段中Surprisingly, new research that my colleagues and I conducted suggests that, to effectively help people settle their conflicts, mediators should adopt an hostile (敌对的) attitude rather than a calming one. A hostile mediator, we find, brings better results than a nice one.“令人惊讶的是，我和同事进行的一项新研究表明，为了有效地帮助人们解决冲突，调解员应该采取敌对态度，而不是平静的态度。

我们发现，一个敌对的调解员比一个好的调解员能带来更好的结果。

”可知本文主题是The Surprising Power of Hostility，故选B。

【点睛】推理判断题要求在理解原文表面文字信息的基础上，做出一定的推理判断，从而得到文章的隐含意义和深层意义。

推理判断题所涉及的内容可能是文中的某一句话，也可能是某几句话，所以，
推理题的答案只能是根据原文表面文字信息一步推出的答案：即对原文某一句话或某几句话所作的同义改写或综合。

推理判断题的题干中通常含infer,suggest,imply,conclude indicate等标志性词语。

本题第3小题，根据最后一段Even with the widespread social benefits of positive behavior and costs of negative behavior, hostility can pay off in certain situations.“即使积极行为有广泛的社会效益和消极行为的代价，敌意也能在某些情况下得到回报。

即使积极行为有广泛的社会效益而消极行为要付出代价，但敌意也能在某些情况下得到回报。

”由此可知，作者的态度是“客观的”。

故选C。
