正确答案: C

was hardly convincing

题目:请阅读 Passage 1,完成1~5小题。   Passage 1   Two years ago,Rupert Murdoch's daughter,Elisabeth,spoke of the "unsettling dearth of integrity across so many of our institutions" .Integrity had collapsed.she argued.because of a collective acceptance that the only "sorting mechanism" in society should be profit and the market.But "it's us,human beings,we the people who create the society we want,not profit" .   Driving her point home,she continued: "It's increasingly apparent that the absence of purpose,of a moral language within government,media or business could become one of the most dangerous goals for capitalism and freedom." This same absence of moral purpose was wounding companies such as News International,she thought,making it more likely that it would lose its way as it had with widespread illegal telephone hacking.   As the hacking trial concludes-finding guilty one ex-editor of The News of the World.Andy Coulson,for conspiring to hack phones,and finding his predecessor,Rebekah Brooks,innocent of the same charge-the wider issue of dearth of integrity still stands.Journalists are known to have hacked the phones of up to 5,500 people.This is hacking on an industrial scale,as was acknowledged by (Jlenn Mulcaire,the man hired by The News of the World in 2001 to be the point person for phone hacking.Others await trial.This long story still unfolds.   In many respects,the dearth of moral purpose frames not only the fact of such widespread phone hacking but the terms on which the trial took place.One of the astonishing revelations was how little Rebekah Brooks knew of what went on in her newsroom,how little she thought to ask and the fact that she never inquired how the stories arrived.The core of her successful defence was that she knew nothing.   In today's world.it has become normal that well-paid executives should not be accountable for what happens in the organisations that they run.Perhaps we should not be so surprised.For a generation,the collective doctrine has been that the sorting mechanism of society should be profit.The words that have mattered are efficiency,flexibility,shareholder value,business-friendly,wealth generation,sales,impact and.in newspapers,circulation.Words degraded to the margin have been justice,fairness,tolerance,proportionality and accountability.   The purpose of editing The News of the World was not to promote reader understanding,to be fair in what was written or to betray any common humanity.It was to ruin lives in the quest for circulation and impact.Ms Brooks may or may not have had suspicions about how her journalists got their stories,but she asked no questions,gave no instruction-nor received traceable,recorded answers.

解析:细节题。根据第四段段末句“The core of her successful defence was that she knew nothing”,即她成功辩护的核心是,她什么也不知道,可知,作者对该案的审判持否定态度。并且作者在该段第一句话中指出,丧失道德目的不仅体现在如此普遍的电话窃听这一事实上,也体现在审判发生的条件上,其中最震惊的就是对Rebekah Brooks的审判。因此,作者认为她的辩护是不可信的。故本题选C。A项“揭露了狡猾的个性”,B项“聚焦于琐碎的小事”和D项“是一个阴谋的一部分”均不符合题意。

  • [单选题]Passage 1 NBA centre Jason Collins recently announced he was gay in a cover story for Sports Illustraied. In other words, he "came out of the closet." This expression for revealing one's homosexuality may seem natural. Being in the closet implies hiding from the outside world, and the act of coming out of it implies the will to stop hiding. But though the closet has long been a metaphor for privacy or secrecy, its use with reference to homosexuality is relatively recent. According to George Chauncey's comprehensive history of modern gay culture, Gay New York, the closet metaphor was not used by gay people until the 1960s. Before then, it doesn't appear anywhere "in the records of the gay movement or in the novels, diaries, or letters of gay men and lesbians." "Coming out," however, has long been used in the gay community, but it first meant something different than it does now. "A gay man's coming out originally referred to his being formally presented to the largest collective manifestation of prewar gay society, the enormous dra~; balls that were patterned on the debutante and masquerade balls of the dominant culture and were regularly held in New York, Chicago, New Orleans, Baltimore, and other cities." The phrase "coming out" did not refer to coming out of hiding, but to joining into a society of peers. The phrase was borrowed from the world of debutante balls, where young women "came out" in being officially introduced to society. The gay debutante balls were a matter of public record and often covered in the newspaper, so "coming out" within gay society often meant revealing your sexual orientation in the wider society as well, but the phrase didn't necessarily carry the implication that if you hadn't yet come out, you were keeping it a secret. There were other metaphors for the act of hiding or revealing homosexuality. Gay people could "wear a mask" or "take off the mask". A man could "wear his hair up" or "let his hair down", or "drop hairpins" that would only be recognized by other gay men. It is unclear exactly when gay people start.ed using the closet metaphor, but "it may have been used initially because many men who remained 'covert' thought of their homosexuality as a sort of 'skeleton in the closet'." It may also have come from outsiders who viewed it that way. It seems that "coming out of the closet" was born as a mixture of two metaphors: a debutante proudly stepping into the arms of a community and a shocking secret being kept in hiding. Now the community is the wider community, and the secret is no longer shocking. "Coming out" is a useful phrase, but it need not imply a closet.
  • Which of the following statement about "coming out" is True?

  • The phrase was borrowed from the world of debutante balls.

  • 解析:A项意为"柜'一直是同性恋的隐喻",这与第二段"…the closet metaphor was not used by gay people until the 1960s."相矛盾,因此错误;B选项意为…出柜'最初的意思是公开同性恋",这与第三段"A gay man's coming out originally referred to his being formally presented to the largest collective manifestation of prewar gay society"不相符;C选项意为"'出柜'一词是从上流女子舞会里借用过来的",与第三段"The phrase was borrowed from the world of debutante balls"相符合,故正确;D项与第三段"The phrase'commg out' did not refer to coming out of hiding"意思相反。因此选择C。
