(2019·*大學聯考)Much of the work in today's world is accomplished (完成) in teams. Most people believe the best way to build a great team is to gather a group of the most talented individuals. __1__ Companies spend millions hiring top business people. Is their money well spent?
__2__ They focused on football, basketball and baseball. The results are mixed. For football and basketball, adding talented players to a team proves a good method, but only up to the point where 70% of the players are top talent;above that level, the team's performance begins to decline. Interestingly, this trend isn't evident in baseball, where additional individual talent keeps improving the team's performance.
To explain this phenomenon, the researchers explored the degree to which a good performance by a team requires its members to coordinate (協調) their actions. __3__ In baseball, the performance of individual players is less dependent on teammates. They conclude that when task interdependence is high, team performance will suffer when there is too much talent, while individual talent will have positive effects on team performance when task interdependence is lower. If a basketball star is, for example, trying to gain a high personal point total, he may take a shot himself when it would be better to pass the ball to a teammate, affecting the team's performance. Young children learning to play team sports are often told, “There is no I in TEAM.” __4__
Another possibility is that when there is a lot of talent on a team, some players may make less effort. Just as in a game of tugofwar (拔河比賽), whenever a person is added, everyone else pulls the rope with less force.
__5__ An Ateam may require a balance—not just A players, but a few generous B players as well.
A.It's not a simple matter to determine the nature of talent.
B.Sports team owners spend millions of dollars attracting top talent.
C.The group interaction and its effect drew the researchers' attention.
D.Stars apparently do not follow this basic principle of sportsmanship.
E.Several recent studies examined the role of talent in the sports world.
F.Building up a dream team is more complex than simply hiring the best talent.
G.This task interdependence distinguishes baseball from football and basketball.
【回答】
篇章導讀:本文是一篇說明文。文章主要介紹了優秀人才在團隊建設中的作用、地位和分佈比例等。通過幾項研究,得出的結論是:一個好的團隊,其成員構成需要平衡,既要有優秀的人,也要有普通的人。在團隊建設中優秀人才的引進不能簡單地搞“一*切”。
1.B 根據空格前句意:“大多數人認為建一個好的團隊的最好方法是聚集一群最有天賦(talented)的個人”,並結合空格後“公司花數百萬(millions)僱用頂級商業人士”,可知B項“體育隊的老闆花數百萬(millions)美元吸引體育天才(talent)”符合語境,並且其中的millions和talent與上下文對應,故應選B項。
2.E 根據空格後的“The results are mixed.”可知,空格處是研究的結果,選項E中的several recent studies與之對應,故*為E。
3.G 空格後先是提到了baseball,後又提到了basketball,對天才球員在這兩項運動中所起的作用進行了研究,由此可知,空格處涉及baseball和basketball。選項G中的baseball,football,basketball與之對應,故*為G。
4.D 根據空格前的“學習參加團隊運動的小孩子經常被告知‘團隊裡沒有個人’”可推斷出,選項D “明星們很明顯不遵守體育精神這一基本原則”符合語境,故*為D。
5.F 根據空格後的“一個優秀的團隊需要平衡”可知,F項“建立一支夢之隊比單純僱用最優秀的人才更復雜”符合語境,故*為F。
