  35. A) A rock climber. B) A psychologist.C) A resident doctor.D) A career consultant.

  So weve already talked a bit about the growth of extreme sports like rock-climbing. As psychologists, we need to ask ourselves: Why is this person doing this? Why do people take these risks and put themselves in danger whenthey dont have to? One common trait among risk-takers is that they enjoy strong feelings or sensations. We call this trait sensation-seeking. A sensation-seeker is someone whos always looking for new sensations. What else do we know about sensation-seekers? Well, as I said, sensation-seekers like strong emotions. You can see this trait in many parts of a persons life, not just in extreme sports. For example, many sensation-seekers enjoy hard rock music. They like the loud sound and strong emotion of the songs. Similarly, sensation-seekers enjoy frightening horror movies. They like the feeling of being scared and horrified while watching the movie. This feeling is even stronger for extreme sports where the person faces real danger. Sensation-seekers feel the danger is very exciting. In addition, sensation-seekers like new experiences that force them to push their personal limits. For them, repeating the same things everyday is boring. Many sensation-seekers choose jobs that involve risk, such as starting a new business or being an emergency room doctor. These jobs are different everyday, so they never know what will happen. Thats why many sensation-seekers also like extreme sports. When you do rock-climbing, you never know what will happen. The activity is always new and different.

  预览三道题各选项,根据33、34题推断本文可能与一些高难度的刺激活动相关,如攀岩、看恐怖电影等。

  33. According to the speaker, what is a common trait among risk-takers?A) Enjoying strong feelings and emotions.四个选项都是动名词短语,而且都是描述人的喜好的,可以推测本题考查人的喜好或性格特点。文章中提到,喜欢冒险的人的一个最常见的特性是they enjoy strong feelings or sensations,即他们喜欢强烈的感觉和感情。sensation意为感觉,感情,与emotion同义,故选项A)正确。

  34. What do sensation-seekers find boring?D) Doing daily routines.四个选项都是动名词短语,都是一些人类活动,由此推测本题可能考查人的动作。文章在后半部分提到For them, repeating the same things everyday is boring,即对他们来说,每天重复同样的事情是很无聊的,选项D)中的daily routine和repeating the same things everyday属于同义转述,故选项D)正确。

  35. What is the speakers profession?B) A psychologist.四个选项都是表示人的职业的名词,因此推断本题考查人的职业。文章主要谈论喜欢冒险的人喜欢做的事情及其原因,再加上文章一开始就提到So weve already talked a bit about the growth of extreme sports like rock-climbing. As psychologists, we need to ask ourselves. . . 从说话的口气和自称psychologist可知,说话人的职业是psychologist,故选项B)正确。
