32、ction. 0 【听力原文】 For most of us, success and the ability to control our own fate are linked to our ability to lead. Leadership, in fact, is something that concerns everyone. A leader does not necessarily occupy a formal leadership position, for example, as the assistant secretary of state or the chie

33、f executive officer. Very often people with leadership titles are not necessarily leaders. Parents, spouses, teammates, colleagues, friends, classmates or playmates can all be leaders if they so desire. A teacher can also be as a leader as he or she is a friend. In fact, most of us spend a great dea

34、l of time trying to get other people to do willingly what we want them to do, and that, in the purest sense of the term, is what leadership is all about. Of course, we can force people to do things for a short period of time, but that is not leadership. A true leader is apt to persuade and influence

35、 other people to accept his ideas, to follow him and to take action. So, what is the essence of leadership? Basically, what is required of a true leader? It is communication. Without communication, leadership does not exist. It is impossible to get someone to do something without verbal or nonverbal

36、 communication. We rely on communication to manage and motivate. We use communication to resolve conflict and facilitate innovation as well as to negotiate. We may expect our leader to be frank, direct, and to the point. We may also expect that our ideal leader listens, is willing to talk, is open t

39、根据原文 A leader does not necessarily occupy a formal leadership position可知，领导未必占据正式的领导职位。由此可见，题干认为领导必须拥有领导职位与原文意思不符，是错误的。 4 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 特定信息的找寻和判断。根据原文 Parents， spouses，teammates， colleagues， friends， classmates or playmates can all be leaders if they so desire可知，父母、配偶、队友、同事、朋友、同学或玩伴们都可以是领导，如果他们愿意

40、的话。由此可见题干说队友和同学不应被视为领导与原文意思不符，是错误的。 5 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 语义的理解和判断。根据原文 In fact， most of us spend a great deal of time trying to get other people to do willingly what we want them to do， and that， in the purest sense of the term， is what leadership is all about可知，我们很多人花大量时间去使他人心甘情愿做我们希望他们做的事，实际上这一点就是最真切

41、的领导意义。由此可见，题干的说法与原文意思相符，是正确的。 6 【正确答案】 B 【 试题解析】 语义的理解和判断。根据原文 we can force people to do things for a short period of time， but that is not leadership可知，我们虽然可以暂时强迫别人行事，但那并非领导。由此可见，题干的说法与原文意思不符，是错误的。 7 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 词义理解题。根据原文的问答部分 So， what is the essence of leadership? Basically， what is required

43、eptive to new ideas可知，我们期望理想完美的领导善于接受新思想。由此可见，题干的说法与原文意思相当，是正确的。 10 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 词义理解题。根据原文 an ideal and recognized leader invariably emerges as the most competent communicator可知，理想的、大众公认的领导一般是最 擅长交流的人。 SECTION 2 (10 points) Listen to the following short statements and then choose one of the answ
