Issues of race or gender may spring to mind． Equal rights? Or minority issues? I encourage people to look at a much wider definition of the word． 1 would tend to say diversity is “ differentness” in any form． A good example of this kind of diversity has been experienced by every person who ever left behind the forts of home and moved into uncharted territory． Issues of diversity are informed not only by your cultural background and context， but also by your religion， age， field of work，family situation， personality， and countless other factors that make us unique． Diversity affects everyone． It’ s for this reason that diversity has bee such a buzz word． The buzz happens because it’ s all about how you handle it． It’ s very much like the job a poser has when creating a great musical position． If the poser understands what each unique note and dynamic mark is capable of in bination with the other parts， the 21 result achieved is extraordinary． If, however， none of the parts is municating with the others， we’ re left with a cacophony(刺耳的聲音 )． On a personal level． it’ s this understanding and acceptance of “ the other” which rests at the core of diversity． Whether we’ re talking about navigating through a multicultural urban environment or uprooting and moving to a new foreign social context， it is necessary to set aside rigid assumptions about “ the other” and put oneself in the other’ s shoes. So how do we make this leap? It’ s often as simple as asking questions and being careful not to assume that what you see is necessarily what the other side sees. Often in my workshops I give a magic lesson to the audience to illustrate this principle. I first present the magic and acplish the impossible. The participants receive the same props but simply can’ t manage. We look more carefully at the situation and realize that the assumptions they made about it actually blocked them from achieving this feat。 a feat they suddenly are empowered to do which, moments ago, was impossible. The goal in being sensitive to diversity is to cultivate a culture of respect for people’ s differences and understand that such an environment is beneficial to everyone involved. 22 Diversity awareness is an evolution. We can’ t get there by snapping our fingers, and it isn’ t a matter of training people to have textbook politically correct attitudes. Instead it’ s a case of looking at the big picture of how we see the world, understanding why we see it that way, and then making sure we do our part to genuinely value difference and benefit from it. 1. According to the author, diversity is A. confusing. B. extraordinary. C. quite mon. D. universal. 2. It in Paragraph Three refers to A. diversity. B. the buzz. C. how to handle diversity. D. the formation of diversity. 3. The author believes that A. to handle diversity one should put himself in others’ shoes. B. when you are in a foreign environment, do as the Romans do. C. diversity can hardly be defined. D. diversity derives from cultural difference. 23 4. The example of a magic lesson is to show A. everyone can do magic. B. magic is nothing but a feat. C. what blocks people from handling diversity. D. it is possible to achieve anything. 5. How to raise diversity awareness according to the author? A. By living in an unfamiliar environment. B. By having politically correct attitudes. C. By being sensitive to everything one experiences. D. By understanding people’ s differences. 【文章概要】 本文圍繞“差異性”這一名詞展開論述。第 1 段以一個問句開頭由“差異性”一詞你會想到什么，引發(fā)讀者的思考；第 2 段對“差異性”進行定義，指出了差異的廣泛性與普遍性；第 3 段以作曲家的創(chuàng)作形象說明差異是如何產(chǎn)生的：第 45 段闡明解決“差異性”的核心并以魔術(shù)表演為例對這一核心進行說明；最后兩段講到了感受差異性的目的并總結(jié)應(yīng)從哪些方面提高“差異性”意識。 【答案解析】 1． [D]細節(jié)判斷題。第 2 段有對該詞的定義，從 any form， every person，not only… but als0 等這些詞可推斷“差異性”具有普遍性，故選 D。 C 為強干擾項， mon 偏指普通的，常見的，注意這里更強調(diào)的是“差異性”的 24 普遍性。 2． [C]代詞指代題?？疾?It 所指代的對象。查找到 It 所在的句子，前句指出“差異性之所以時髦是因為它取決于你如何對待它”，然后就指出“這就好 像作曲家在創(chuàng)作一首偉大的樂曲一樣”，故 It 在此指代的就是如何對待差異性的問題，故選 C。 D 有一定的干擾性，但差異性的形成并沒有在 It前面提到，故排除。 3． [A]觀點態(tài)度題。由 第 4 段倒數(shù)第 3 句可知 A 正確，該段還提到搬遷到一個陌生的社會環(huán)境必須拋棄對他人的固執(zhí)想法， B 與原文表述不符；第 2段首句就有對”差異性“的定義。故 C 錯誤；第 2 段提到“差異性問題不僅體現(xiàn)于你的文化背景，還體現(xiàn)于……”， D 表述過于片面，故排除。 4． [C]例證細節(jié)題。根據(jù) magic lesson 定位到第 5 段。該例子表明觀眾從“不會”到“會”魔術(shù)這門技藝，說明是他們原先的臆想阻礙了他們對這種技藝的掌握，進而說明是什么阻礙了人們正確對待文化差異，故選 C。 A“每個人都能玩魔術(shù)”和 B“魔術(shù)只不過是一門技藝”不是例證要說 明的問題，故排除。 5． [D]細節(jié)判斷題。 根據(jù) diversi awareness 定位到最后一段。該段最后一句表明，差異性意識的提升就應(yīng)從我們?nèi)绾斡^察世界這個大問題著眼，理解我們?yōu)槭裁茨菢涌创町悾⑶袑嵄ＷC我們能真正重視事物的差異，故選 D。由該段第 2 句可知 B 錯誤；到了不熟悉的環(huán)境中，會碰到“差異性”的問題，但它不是提升差異意識的途徑，故 A 錯。 C 文中沒有提到。 25 文章來源： E 智網(wǎng) (第一 網(wǎng)絡(luò) 教育平臺 )
