(10 points) People are, on the whole, poor at considering background information when making individual decisions.A.t first glance this might seem like a strength that 1 the ability to make judgments which are unbiased by 2 factors. But Dr Uri Simonsohn speculated that an inability to consider the big 3 was leading decision-makers to be biased by the daily samples of information they were working with. 4 , he theorised that a judge 5 of appearing too soft 6 crime might be more likely to send someone to prison 7 he had already sentenced five or six other defendants only to forced community service on that day. To 8 this idea, he turned to the university-admissions process. In theory, the 9 of an applicant should not depend on the few others 10 randomly for interview during the same day, but Dr Simonsohn suspected the truth was 11 . He studied the results of 9,323 MBA interviews 12 by 31 admissions officers. The interviewers had 13 applicants on a scale of one to five. This scale 14 numerous factors into consideration. The scores were 15 used in conjunction with an applicant’s score on the Graduate Management Admission Test, or GMAT, a standardised exam which is 16 out of 800 points, to make a decision on whether to accept him or her.

B. vision
C. picture
D. moment
答案
C
解析
本题测试考生逻辑关系和词汇熟练程度。由于此句中出现了But和speculated,显然本句作者要表达的意思与上一句有很大的“转向”。从逻辑上推断,这里的“big-”与上文中的background information意思接近。因此只有picture搭配的词义是“大背景”,与上文逻辑相符,故为正确答案。issue搭配后意为“大的议题、话题”,与“背景信息”意思上不符。vision搭配后意为“大视野、视角”,强调的是人的一种能力或水平而不是客观环境;moment搭配后意为“重要或关键的时刻”,均与文章中的逻辑关系不符。
