Theidea is intuitively compelling, but it doesn't explain how ideas actuallyspread.    The supposed importance of influentials derives from a plausible-soundingbut largely untested theory called the "two-step flow ofcommunication": Information flows from the media to the influential andfrom them to everyone else. Marketers have embraced the two-step flow becauseit suggests that if they can just find and influence the influentials, those selectedpeople will do most of the work for them. The theory also seems to explain thesudden and unexpected popularity of certain looks, brands, or neighborhoods. Inmany such cases, a cursory search for causes finds that some small group ofpeople was wearing  promoting, or developingwhatever it is before anyone else paid attention. Anecdotal evidence of thiskind fits nicely with the idea that only certain special people can drivetrends.    In their recent work，however，some researchers have come up with the finding that influential havefar less impact on social epidemics than is generally supposed. In fact, theydon 't  seem to be required of all.The researchers ' argument stems from a simple observation aboutsocial influence: With the exception of a few celebrities like OprahWinfrey-whose outsize presence is primarily a function of media, notinterpersonal, influence-even the most influential members of a populationsimply don't interact with that many others. Yet it is precisely these non-celebrityinfluentials who，according to the two-step-flow theory, are supposed to drive socialepidemics, by influencing their friends and colleagues directly.  For a social epidemic to occur, however, eachperson so affected must then influence his or her own acquaintances，who must intum influence theirs, and so on; and just how many others pay attention to eachof these people        has little to do with the initialinfluential. If people in the network just two degrees removed from the initialinfluential prove resistant. for example, the cascade of change won ' tpropagate very far or affect many people.    Building on the basic truth aboutinterpersonal influence, the researchers studied the dynamics of social influenceby conducting thousands of computer simulations of populations, manipulating a numberof variables relating to people's ability to influence others and theirtendency to be influenced.  They foundthat the principal requirement for what is called    "global cascades"---the widespreadpropagation of influence through networks—is the presence not of a few influentials but ,rather, of a critical mass of easilyinfluenced people.By citing the book The Tipping Point, the author intends to_____

A、analyze the consequences of social epidemics

B、discuss influentials ' function in spreading ideas

C、exemplify people ' s intuitive response to social epidemics

D、describe the essential characteristics of influential

政府部门领导：我们已经有了一条促使与政府部门有商业往来的公司遵循的道德规范。几乎所有公司都同意遵守它的事实说明它是成功的。因此，没有必要以更强的道德规范或强制机制来保证与政府部门有商业往来的公司作出符合道德的行为。下面哪项如果正确，对该领导的结论提出了最严重的质疑？（　　）

A、只是在发现几家公司和政府部门进行商业往来时严重违反了道德规范以后，才制定了这些道德规范

B、一项政府调查发现，大部分同意遵守这一规范的公司目前都没有实际执行

C、对大多数公司的调查发现，几家公司已经停止和政府部门进行商业往来，因为它们不想遵守这些道德规范

D、通过对制约公司的这些道德规范的调查，发现同意遵守它们的这些公司的最高管理人员完全执行时，这些规范的效果才最好

（十）　　【给定资料】　　云南大学E教授说：“怒江中下游水电开发的确不是解决当地群众贫困和经济发展的唯一途径，但是，怒江州可供开发利用的自然资源十分有限，怒江地区生存条件的恶劣超出了一般人的想象。水电开发，至少是迄今为止一条可实现的对怒江社会经济发展具有重要作用的途径。”　　某经济研究所F所长认为，只有开发怒江才能有资金进行生态移民，也才有可能使植被不再被当地百姓出于生存需要而破坏，怒江水电建设完全符合循环经济的要求。上海某大学地理研究所G所长指出：“美国人民把搁浅的鲸鱼推入大海，这值得赞扬；鲸鱼被非洲难民捕食，这也应赞扬，因为它救活了一群人。”　　云南省政府某研究室H主任说，滇西北的怒江地区经济发展缓慢，至今仍是云南乃至全国最贫困的地区。该地区72万亩耕地大部分是挂在陡坡上的“大字报”地，每亩地的产值回报仅33元，10亩地养活不了1口人，全州唯一支撑地方经济的森工产业也在环保工程实施后退出了历史舞台。　　中科院I院士在接受记者采访时明确表示，怒江建水电站能解决老百姓的生活问题。老百姓的贫困不可能靠国家救济解决，库区5万移民的代价还是比较低的。从发电角度说，怒江的装机容量可以达到2100多万千瓦，超过长江三峡1800多万千瓦的装机容量，而怒江的投资只有长江三峡的一半。因为怒江的地理条件好，可以用较小的投资产生较大的回报。I院士强调指出：“2100多万千瓦不是小量。”他还认为，云南少数民族地区应该是优先发展的地方，这里发展水电，一部分输出华东、华中，一部分可输出缅甸，从国际形势看，有其战略意义。　　【问题】　　给定资料引用了上海某研究所G所长的话：“美国人把搁浅的鲸鱼推入大海，这值得赞扬；鲸鱼被非洲难民捕食，这也应赞扬，因为它救活了一群人”，请说明这表达了G所长怎样的观点。　　要求：简明、准确地阐释观点，不超过200字。

请阅读 Passage 2，完成第 26~30小题 。Passage 2Paper money is used every day but people do not often think of money as just paper.This is because people agree that it has value，and paper money is supported by the government.People have used paper money for only a few hundred years，but what did people do before printed money was invented? In Medieval England，a stick was the official representation of money. The common system that was used involved counting debt on a piece of wood called a "tally stick". The tally stick was marked with a knife.Each mark，or tally，indicated an amount of money.The tally stick acted as a contract.No one really knows who invented the tally stick，but King Henry I of England is credited as the first to use the stick in a widespread fashion.In England，the tally stick was used from 1100-1826.Marks were made on a tally stick to represent the amount of service or goods that were exchanged.The tally stick was cut in halflengthwise into two parts，and one stick was longer than the other.The person giving services or goods received the longer end of the stick，called the "stock"，and the person paying for the service or goods received the shorter end.Once the stick was cut，it could not be altered.When put together，the two halves fit perfectly together.Medieval England was not the only country to use the tally stick system.In 1960，Belgian scientist Jean de Heinzelin de Braucourt discovered an extremely old tally stick made of baboon bone in Africa.At first，he determined the stick to be between about 8，000 to 10，000 years old.This surprised many people because it proved that the tally stick system had been in use for much longer than everyone had previously thought.Further research has shown that this stick is actually much older: now，scientists believe it is 20，000 years old.The tally stick system may no longer be in use today，but its influence is still apparent.People still make contracts and people still borrow and lend money.People still trust that "things"-whether they are sticks，paper，or coins-have value.The next time paper money is used，just remember: it is only paper!In England，the tally stick was useful for ____.

A、deciding debt and credit

B、cutting goods in half

C、discovering the origins of African tally sticks

D、designing tally sticks made of baboon bone
