Question

4．Most people follow others blindly mainly under the effect of peer（同齡人） pressure．Some people also feel it safe to follow a large number of people．In some rare cases it might be right to follow the crowd （群眾），but in most cases this can be one big mistake．Ninety-five percent of people never succeed because they are following the wrong group．Actually there are reasons why we shouldn't follow the crowd blindly．
   According to a study，people tend to follow the crowd when they aren't sure 
about the direction they should take．This means a large number of people could be 
following others without understanding what's right and what's wrong!This attracts more people to follow them and the result is that most people move in a certain 
direction even if it isn't right．
   A man who wants to be successful always hopes for others'guidance and he usually follows the same path of most people，but the question this man never asks himself is：are all of those people successful？Of course not!If you want to follow a crowd，then follow a successful one．However，in real life you'll only find one successful person among hundreds of people，and that's why following the crowd makes no sense at all．
    Most people act without thinking wisely．If you always follow others because
 they're greater than you in number，then sooner or later you'll discover that you're making decisions you might regret later．
    However，should we never follow the crowd？No．I'm not trying to say you 
should never follow the crowd，but instead I'm just asking you to think wisely before you take a decision．If you find others are right，there is no problem in following them，but if you have doubts about the direction they're moving in，don't follow them blindly．

Answer 1

分析 短文講了盲目跟從他人可能是一個(gè)大錯(cuò)誤．百分之九十五的人不會(huì)成功，因?yàn)樗麄兏�錯(cuò)了隊(duì)．但是，這并不是意味著不能跟隨他人，正確的做法是，在確定是否跟隨他人之前必須三思而后行．

解答 答案：53．A  詞意猜測(cè)題．根據(jù)上下句子Some people also feel it safe to follow a large number of people．In some…cases it might be right to follow the crowd （群眾），but in most cases this can be one big mistake．but in most cases this can be one big mistake．Ninety-five percentof people never succeed because they are following the wrong group．"一些人也覺(jué)得跟著大多數(shù)人安全．在某些…情況下，可能跟這群眾是正確的，但在大多數(shù)情況下它是個(gè)大錯(cuò)誤．百分之九十五的人從沒(méi)有成功是因?yàn)樗麄兏�錯(cuò)了隊(duì)．可知但在大多數(shù)情況下，盲目跟從這可能是一個(gè)大錯(cuò)誤．與前面說(shuō)的In some…cases it might be right to follow the crowd （群眾）形成對(duì)比，即在某些少量的情況下，可能跟著群眾是正確的，A small number of少量的．故選A．
54．C 細(xì)節(jié)理解題．根據(jù)倒數(shù)第七行句子If you want to follow a crowd，then follow a successful one．可知一個(gè)想要獲取成功的人應(yīng)該跟隨一個(gè)成功的人．故選C．
55．D 主旨?xì)w納題．根據(jù)整篇文章內(nèi)容及其第一段最后一句N(xiāo)inety-five percent of people never succeed because they are following the wrong group．Actually there are reasons why we shouldn't follow the crowd blindly． 百分之九十五的人從沒(méi)有成功是因?yàn)樗麄兏�錯(cuò)了隊(duì)．其實(shí)有原因，我們不應(yīng)該盲目跟從．可知其實(shí)是有原因的，我們不應(yīng)該盲目隨大流．后面的短文內(nèi)容說(shuō)的是原因．故選D．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 在通讀全文的基礎(chǔ)上，根據(jù)全文大意，展開(kāi)邏輯思維，瞻前顧后，認(rèn)真觀察選項(xiàng)，仔細(xì)推敲，確定最佳答案．
