sociologists,there are several different ways in which a person may become recognized as the leader of a social group.In the family,traditional cultural patterns confer leadership on one or both of the parents.In other cases,such as friendship groups,one or more persons may gradually emerge as leaders,although there is no formal process of selection.In larger groups,leaders are usually chosen formally through election or recruitment.Although leaders are often thought to be people with unusual personal ability,decades of research have failed to produce consistent evidence that there is any category of“natural leaders”.It seems that there is no set of personal qualities that all leaders have in common;rather,virtually any person may be recognized as a leader if the person has qualities that meet the needs of that particular group.Research suggests that there are typically two different leadership roles that are held by different individuals.Instrumental leadership is leadership that emphasizes the completion of tasks by a social group.Group members look to instrumental leaders to“get things done”.Expressive leadership,on the other hand,is leadership that emphasizes the collective well beings of a social groups members.Expressive leaders are less concerned with the overall goals of the group than with providing emotional support to group members and attempting to minimize tension and conflict among them.Instrumental leaders are likely to have a rather secondary relationship to other group 第 页（共 11 页）4members.They give others and may discipline group members who inhibit(阻碍)attainment of the groups goals.Expressive leaders cultivate a more personal or primary relationship to others in the group.They offer sympathy when someone experiences difficulties and try to resolve issues that threaten to divide the group.As the difference in these two roles suggest,expressive leaders generally receive more personal affection from group members;instrumental leaders,if they are successful in promoting group goals,may enjoy a more distant respect.31.What does the passage mainly discuss?A.The problems faced by leaders.B.How leadership differs in small and large groups.C.How social groups determine who will lead them.D.The role of leaders in social groups.32.The passage mentions all of the following ways by which people can become leaders EXCEPT_.A.recruitmentB.formal election processC.specific leadership trainingD.traditional cultural patterns33.Which of the following statements about leadership can be inferred from paragraph 2?A.person who is an effective leader of a particular group may not be an effective leader in another group.B.Few people succeed in sharing a leadership role with another person.C.A person can best learn how to be an effective leader by studying research on leadership.D.Most people desire to be leaders but can produce little evidence of their qualifications.34.In mentioning“natural leaders”in line 7,the author is making the point that _.A.few people qualify as“natural leaders”B.there is no proof that“natural leaders”existC.“natural leaders”are easily accepted by the members of a groupD.“natural leaders”share a similar set of characteristics35.The passage indicates that instrumental leaders generally focus on _.A.ensuring harmonious relationships B.sharing responsibility with group membersC.identifying new leadersD.achieving a goalPassage 2 Colleges Admissions Policies to Be StudiedThe national organization that oversees college application practices has decided not to sanction Harvard,Yale and Stanford universities for violating early-admission rules and will instead launch a two-year study of the increasingly controversial and confusing higher education application process.Joyce Smith,executive director of the Alexandria,Va.-based National Association for 第 页（共 11 页）5College Admission Counseling,said that the organization had circulated a memo to its college and high school members declaring a moratorium（暂停）on enforcing rules that govern early admissions to colleges and universities.The move is the result of a continuing debate about the popular early-admissions programs,which some educators say do not give applicants enough time to consider their choices,and put low-income students at a disadvantage because they risk losing some financial aid if they apply early.Under the early-admissions system,students can apply to schools as early as November of their senior year in high school and receive an answer before Christmas,in time to apply elsewhere if they are rejected.The early-admission programs were originally designed to give applicants the opportunity to get into their favorite schools early,reducing their anxiety about where they would attend college,as well as allow colleges to spread out and control the admissions process.Most selective schools offer an early decision policy,which requires the applicant to go to that school if accepted early.Some colleges have the less-restrictive early action policy,which allows students to apply to multiple colleges,both early and at the standard time,and not make up their minds until April.When Yale and Stanford announced they were dropping their early-decision policies in favor of early action,they said they would still insist that applicants for that special status agree not to seek early admission from any other school.Some association members said that violated the official definition of early action.Harvard,after experimenting with an early-action policy that allowed students to seek similar treatment from other schools,ultimately returned to a policy similar to Yales and Stanfords.Harvards director of admissions,Marlyn McGrath Lewis,said that her staff found it difficult to carefully assess the additional early applications that poured in when the school lifted its restrictions.Georgetown University,one of the few colleges in Washington area with an early action policy,allows students to apply to other early action schools,but not to any early decision schools,said Dean of Admissions Charles Deacon.Many college admissions directors and high school guidance counselors said they welcomed the associations decision to take a long look at the whole process rather than to penalize some schools by revoking their membership privileges or declaring their practices unethical.Its a very good idea,said Nina Marks,assistant head and director of college guidance at the National Cathedral School in the District of Columbia.Martin A.Wilder Jr.,the head of admissions for Mary Washington College and vice president for admissions,counseling and enrollment services of the national association,said,“The landscape is just changing so drastically There need to be some extended discussion and in-depth thinking about this.”第 页（共 11 页）636.Harvard,Yale and Stanford universities are not sanctioned because _.A.they have not violated the admission

AprilD.any time in the yearPassage 3 Wyntons BluesFor twenty years the fates of Marsalis and jazz music have appeared inextricably intertwined.He was a young newcomer on the New York scene at a time when jazz seemed dominated and diminished by rock-oriented“fusion,”marginalized by outr experimentation and electronics,and disconnected from the youth audience that has driven American popular culture since the postwar era.Extraordinarily gifted and fluent in both jazz and classical music,not to mention young,handsome,black,impassioned,and articulate,especially on the importance of jazz history and jazz masters,Marsalis was ideally equipped to lead a cultural-aesthetic movement suited to the time,a renaissance that raised public esteem for and the popular appeal of jazz through a return to the musics traditional values:jazz for the Reagan revolution.In 1990 Time magazine put him on the cover and announced the dawn of The New Jazz Age.Record companies rediscovered the music and revived long-dormant jazz lines,signing countless young musicians inspired by Marsalis,along with three of his five brothers(first his older brother,Branford,a celebrated tenor saxophonist;later Delfeayo,a trombonist;and eventually the 第 页（共 11 页）7youngest,Jason,a percussionist)and his father,Ellis(a respected educator and pianist in the familys native New Orleans).By the 1990s Wynton Marsalis had become an omnipresent spokesperson for his music and also one of its most prolific and highly decorated practitioners(he was the first jazz composer to win a Pulitzer Prize,for Blood on the Fields,his oratorio about slavery)something of a counterpart to Leonard Bernstein in the 1950s.He took jazz up and over the hierarchical divide that had long isolated the music from the fine-arts establishment;the modest summer jazz program he created won a full constituency at Lincoln Center.In 1999,to mark the end of the century,Marsalis issued a total of fifteen CDs about one new title every month.Jazzs public advocates,Marsalis among them,like to talk about the music as a democratic art,a form of communal expression founded on the primacy of the individual voice.In recent years the conversation about the future of the music has focused on the global expansion of the jazz community and the integrity of the voices in that expanded community.But if the effectiveness of any democracy is in inverse proportion to its size,it looks again as though jazz may be doomed.That is to say,the music may not survive in the fo
