从下列每篇短文的问题后所给的四个选择项中选出一个最佳答案,并将选项号填在答题纸的相应
位置上。
Passage One
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.
“No man is an island,” wrote the poet John Donne several centuries ago.
He was acknowledging one of
our most distinctive characteristics: the fact that we are social animals whose
behavior and personalities
are shaped by the groups to which we belong.
Throughout life, most of our daily activities are performed in the company of others.
Whether our purpose
is working, playing, raising a family, learning, or simply relaxing, we usually pursue
it in groups, even if
the group is as small as two or three people. Out need for human contacts is
not merely a practical one; it
is a deep psychological need as well. If people are deprived of the company
of others for prolonged
periods, mental breakdown is the usual result. Even the Geneva Convention( 日内瓦公约),an
international agreement that regulates the treatment of prisoners of war,
recognizes this need. It regards
solitary( 孤独的) imprisonment for more than thirty day as a cruel form of torture( 折磨).
In its strictest sense, a group is a collection of people interacting together in an
orderly way on the basis of
shared expectations about one another’s behavior. As result of this interaction,
members feel a common
sense of “belonging.” They distinguish members from nonmembers and
expect certain kinds of
behavior from outsiders.

A.no one can live on an island alone
B.a man is not surrounded by sea on all sides

A.poeple are different from animals
B.Donne recognized the group to which he belonged
C.human beings are social animals
D.human behavior and personalities are formed by others
23.“Breakdown” as used in Line 6, Paragraph 2 most probably denotes ____.
A.separation
B.collapse
C.analysis

B.The members share some common grounds.
