29.What doesthe speakersay hascontributed toWilmaSubrassuccessPassage2One of the biggestchallenges facingemployers andeducators todayistherapidadvance ofglobalization.The marketplace isno longernationalorregional,butextends toall cornersof the world.And thisrequires a global readyworkforce.Universities havea largepart toplay inpreparing studentsforthe21st centurylabormarket bypromoting internationaleducational experiences.The mostobviousway universitiescan helpdevelop globalworkforce isbyencouragingstudents tostudyabroad aspartof their course.Students whohave experiencedanother culturefirsthand aremore likelyto beglobal readywhen they graduate.Global workforcedevelopment doesn,t alwayshave toinvolve travelabroad however.If studentslearn anotherlanguage andstudy othercultures,they willbe moreglobalready when theygraduate.It isimportant topoint out that studentsalso needtohave adeep understandingof theirown culturebefore theycan beginto observe,analyze andevaluate othercultures.In multi-cultural societies,people canstudyeach others cultures,to developintercultural competencies,such ascritical andreflectivethinking,and intellectualflexibility.This can be doneboth throughthecurriculum andthrough activitieson campus,outside of the classroom,such asartexhibitions,and lecturesfrom internationalexperts.Many universitiesarealready embracingthis challenge,and providingopportunitiesforstudents tobecomeglobal citizens.Students themselves,however,may notrealize thatwhen theygraduate,theywillbe competingin aglobal labormarket,and universitiesneedto raiseawareness of these issuesamongst undergraduates.Questions30-32Q30:What is one of the biggestchallenges facingemployers andeducators todayQ31:What shouldstudents dofirst before theycanreally understand otherculturesQ32:What shouldcollege studentsrealize accordingto thespeakerPassage3To seeif haircolor affectsa persons chancesof gettinga job,researchersat California State Universityasked136collegestudentsto reviewthe resumeandphotograph ofa femaleapplicant fora jobas anaccountant.Each studentwas giventhesame resume.But theapplicant spicture wasaltered,so that in somephotosher hairwas golden,in somered and in somebrown.The resultWith brownhair,the womanwas ratedmore capable,and shewas offereda highersalary thanwhen shehadgolden orred hair.Other studieshave foundsimilar results.Many respondentsratewomen withgolden hairwith lessintelligent thanother people,and redheadsas moretemperamental.Women withred orgolden hairare victimsof thecommonpractice ofstereotyping.A stereotypeisasimplistic orexaggerated imagethat humanscarrying intheirminds aboutgroups of people.For example,lawyers areshrewd anddishonest isapopular stereotype.Stereotyping canoccur inpublicspeakingclasses.When tryingtochoose aspeech topic,some malesthinkthatwomen are uninterested inhow torepaircars,while somefemales thinkthat menareuninterestedin creativehobbies,such asknitting andneedle point.We should reject stereotypes,because theyforceall peoplein a group intothesamesimple pattern.They failto accountforindividual differences,andthewide rangeof characteristicsamong membersof anygroup.Some lawyersare dishonest,yes!But manyare not.Some womenare uninterestedinrepairing cars,yes!But someare enthusiasticmechanics.Questions33-35Q33:What didresearchers atCaliforniaStateUniversity findQ34:What isthe popularstereotype oflawyersQ35:Why doesthespeakersay weshouldrejectstereotypesSection CTheancient Greeksdeveloped basicmemory systemscalled mnemonics.The nameisderived fromtheir Goddessof memoryMnemosyne”.Intheancient world,a trainedmemorywas animmense asset,particularly inpublic life.There wereno convenientdevicesfor takingnotes,and earlyGreek oratorsdelivered longspeeches withgreataccuracy because they learnedthe speechesusing mnemonicsystems.The Greeksdiscovered thathuman memoryis largelyan associativeprocess thatitworks bylinking thingstogether.For example,think ofan apple.The instantyourbrain registersthe word〃apple〃,it recallsthe shape,color,taste,smelland textureof thatfruit.All thesethings areassociated in your memorywith theword〃apple〃・This meansthat anythought abouta certainsubject willoften bringupmore memoriesthat arerelated toit.An examplecould bewhen youthink aboutalecture youhave had.This couldtrigger amemory aboutwhat youretalking aboutthroughthat lecture,which canthen triggeranother memory.Associations do nothave tobe logical.They justhave to make agood link.An examplegiven ona websiteIwas lookingat follows,〃Do youremember the shape ofAustria CanadaBelgiumOr GermanyProbably not.What aboutItaly thoughIf youremember theshape ofItaly,it isbecause youhavebeentold atsometimethat Italyis shapedlike aboot.Youmade anassociation withsomething alreadyknown,theshapeofaboot.And Italyshapecouldnotbe forgottenonce youhad madethe association.zz英语六级考试模拟练习题5Section
