Question

【題目】Remembering names is an important social skill. Here are some ways to master it.

Recite and repeat in conversation.

When you hear a person’s name，repeat it. Immediately say it to yourself several times without moving your lips. You could also repeat the name in a way that does not sound forced or artificial.

Ask the other person to recite and repeat.

You can let other people help you remember their names. After you’ve been introduced to someone，ask that person to spell the name and pronounce it correctly for you. Most people will be pleased by the effort you’re making to learn their names.

Admit you don’t know.

Admitting that you can’t remember someone’s name can actually make people relaxed. Most of them will feel sympathy (同情) if you say, “I’m working to remember names better. Yours is right on the tip of my tongue. What is it again?”

Use association (聯(lián)系).

Connect each person you meet with one thing you find interesting or unusual. For example，you could make a mental note: “Vicki Cheng -- tall, black hair.” To strengthen your associations, write them on a small card as soon as possible.

Limit the number of new names you learn at one time.

When meeting a group of people, concentrate on remembering just two or three names. Free yourself from remembering every one. Few of the people in mass introductions expect you to remember their names. Another way is to limit yourself to learning just first names. Last names can come later.

Go early.

Consider going early to meetings, parties and classes. Sometimes just a few people show up on time. That’s fewer names for you to remember. And as more people arrive, you can hear them being introduced to others — a review for you.

Answer 1

【答案】

【1】C

【2】A

【3】B

【4】A

【解析】

試題分析：本文講的是社交技巧中的如何記人的名字；1，在對話中默默的記；2讓別人重復(fù)，在別人的重復(fù)中記住。3，利用想象，想象著名字對應(yīng)人的特征4，一次少記幾個(gè)人的名字。5，早到會場，多一些機(jī)會聽別人的介紹。

【1】C細(xì)節(jié)理解題。在文中的第三段的最后一句話Most people will be glad by the effort that you’re making to learn their names. 大多數(shù)人對于別人努力記住他們的名字感到高興。故選C

【2】A細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文中的第四段，承認(rèn)不知道他的名字，記不住他的名字。他們多數(shù)人會很高興，故選A。

【3】B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。倒數(shù)第二段的開頭就提出限制所記名字的數(shù)量。當(dāng)你遇到一群人，先記其中的兩個(gè)三個(gè)，不可每個(gè)都記。所以推出遇到一群人先記一部分。故選B

【4】A主旨大意題。本文主要告訴我們什么，A在一些社交技巧和建議；B參加聚會的重要性；C如何充分利用想象；D如何去在交流中記名字和重復(fù)名字。答案鎖定在AD上但綜合全文來講不僅僅局限在交流上，所以D不對，故選A。
