Explain the three key linkages in expectancy theory and their role in motivation.
Finally, many great players come from the same kind of neighborhood--a poor, crowded area where a boy's dream is not to be a doctor, lawyer, or businessman, but to become a rich, famous athlete or entertainer. For example, Liverpool, which produced the Beatles, had one of the best English soccer teams in recent years. Pele practiced in the street with a "ball" made of rags. And George Best learned the tricks that made him famous by bouncing the ball off a wall in the slums of Belfast.
All great players have a lot in common, but that doesn't explain why they are great. Hundreds of boys played in those Brazilian streets, but only one became Pele. The greatest players are born with some unique quality that sets them apart from all the others.
According to the author, which of the following statements is true?
A.Soccer is popular all over the world, but truly great players are rare.
B.Millions of people all over the world are playing soccer, but only six countries have ever hadfamous stars.
C.Soccer is played by millions of people all over the world, but only six countries from SouthAmerica and western Europe have ever had great national teams.
D.All over the world soccer is one of the most popular games, but it seems least popular in North America or Asia.
Passage Three
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.
The physicist investigating the relationship between time and space, the chemist exploring the properties of a new substance, the biologist probing the mysteries of the continuity of life. and the anthropologist(人类学家)searching for human origins share a common trait(特征), curiosity. Not that nonscientist are not curious;most people possess this characteristic. The scientist, however, uses a specific method to make researches into these enigmatic(难以理解的)problems-the scientific method.
Unfortunately, science and its method are misunderstood, the multiplication of our knowledge in medicine and technology has led to the idea that science can cure all and explain all and that only enough time, money and intelligence are needed. In truth. science cannot provide all answers. In fact, many phenomena are not even subject to scientific explanations.
On the other side of the coin, science has been attacked as a cause of most contemporary problems. It is said to be responsible for the depersonalization(使失去个性)of the individual, for stripping(夺去)creativity from human behavior, and for creating massive threats to the species through the development of nuclear power, insecticides, and polluting machinery. If we analyze the situation, we can see that it was not the original intent of the people who developed computers to debase humankind, nor was mass production proposed as a method to crush creativity. It is what society, policymakers especially, does with scientific achievements that makes them social or antisocial. There is nothing inherently good or bad about science.
Which of the following is the main topic of the passage?
A. Scientists and their curiosity.
B. Science and scientific method.
C. Understandings of science.
D. Misunderstandings of science.

I had an experience recently with someone admitting to me that he had made a mistake fifteen years ago. He told me he had been the manager of a certain store in the neighborhood where I grew up; and he asked me if I remembered the egg cartons (in many countries, eggs are sold by the dozen and are put in cartons). Then he related an incident(event, matter)and I began to remember unclearly the incident he was describing.
I was about eight years old at the time. I went into the store with my mother to do some shopping. On that particular day, I must have found my way to the food department where the incident took place.
There must have been a special sale on eggs that day because there were lots of eggs in dozen and half-dozen cartons. The cartons were put three or four feet high. I must have stopped in front of the piles of egg cartons. Just then a woman came by pushing her shopping cart and knocked off the cartons. For some reason, I decided it was up to me to put the eggs back together, so I went to work.
The manager heard the noise and came rushing over to see what had happened. When he appeared, I was on my knees looking at some of the cartons to see if any of the eggs were broken, but to him it looked as though I was the one who just did it. He severely reprimanded me and wanted me to pay for any broken eggs. I tried to explain, but it did no good. Even though I quickly forgot all about the incident, it is plain that the manager did not.
According to this passage, many people will have a good opinion of those who ______.
A.have never made any mistakes
B.often make mistakes but correct them in no time
C.admit their mistakes
D.forget other people's mistakes easily
When you study, you should read the whole lesson first. This gives you the whole picture in which to put the ideas. New information that fits into the whole picture is easier to remember than separate facts. You also learn faster if you look at headings, introductions, important words, summaries, conclusions, and anything else that help to organize the material. Organized material is easier to understand.
After you read a whole lesson, the next step is to study the parts. Think about how they fit into the whole picture. If you have a lot to study, don't try to do the whole job at once. Learning should be spread out and spaced. This gives the information time to "sink in". You should study grammar three times, a half hour each time. That is better than studying for an hour and a half all at one time. Even shorter study periods are better for vocabulary lists and other difficult material. To learn the most in a two-hour study session, study different kinds of material; a half hour on grammar, 15 minutes on vocabulary, 20 minutes on writing, and so on. The change will help to keep you interested.
You forget most quickly right after you read or hear something new. You should review right away so you won't forget, and if possible, explain it to someone else. When you review and test yourself on the material, you are being active; active learning is better than just reading or listening. You remember more and save time in the end if you spend at least one-third of your time on active review.
Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A.Long-term Memories
B.Short-term Memories
C.Organized Material
D.Study to Remember
