(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 .

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.

选项
A. issue
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。
