Q6 to Q9:
For many years, theoretical
economists characterized humans
as rational beings relentlessly bent
Line on maximizing purely selfish reward.
(5) Results of an experimental economics
study appear to contradict this view,
however. In the “Ultimatum Game,”
two subjects, who cannot exchange
information, are placed in separate
(10) rooms. One is randomly chosen to
propose how a sum of money, known
to both, should be shared between
them; only one offer, which must
be accepted or rejected without
(15) negotiation, is allowed.
If, in fact, people are selfish and
rational, then the proposer should offer
the smallest possible share, while the
responder should accept any offer,
(20) no matter how small: after all, even
one dollar is better than nothing. In
numerous trials, however, two-thirds
of the offers made were between
40 and 50 percent; only 4 percent
(25) were less than 20 percent. Among
responders, more than half who were
offered less than 20 percent rejected
the offer. Behavior in the game did not
appreciably depend on the players’
(30) sex, age, or education. Nor did the
amount of money involved play a
significant role: for instance, in trials
of the game that were conducted in
(35) as much as three times the subjects’
average monthly income, and still
responders refused offers that they
deemed too small.
Q6:
The primary purpose of the passage is to
答案是D 但是我无法排除B
请教大家意见!!
up一下十天前的题目
都快忘了!!
应该是propose, 而非challenge
GWD-7-Q9:
All of the following are expressly mentioned in the passage as factors that did not significantly affect players’ behavior EXCEPT the
Answer: (E)
是不是答案错了，我觉得d正确啊。
偶觉得GG的答案应该是对的,D是正确答案
Behavior in the game did not
appreciably depend on the players’
sex, age, or education. Nor did the
amount of money involved play a
significant role:
我怎么觉得意思好像没反呢
我认为bd的主要区别在于选项描述的重心问题，也就是本文的主旨
在b中的描述可以体会到这篇文章成了一个驳论文所有的重心在驳，b中所提到的其他因素，并没有在文章中引出。
而d中则说的是主要为描述一个研究，而研究中所反应的东西恰恰驳斥了某论点，这恰恰反应了文中的用意
附上简要意思
For many years, theoretical
economists characterized humans
as rational beings relentlessly bent
Line on maximizing purely selfish reward.很多年来，理论经济学家都将人类定义为理性的动物无情的倾向为个人利益最大化。
(5) Results of an experimental economics
study appear to contradict this view,
however. In the “Ultimatum Game,”然而一个实践的经济研究所表现出来的正与这个观点相反。
two subjects, who cannot exchange
information, are placed in separate
(10) rooms. One is randomly chosen to在最后通谍游戏中，两个研究对象，他们之间不可交换信息，被放置于独立的屋子中。
propose how a sum of money, known
to both, should be shared between
them; only one offer, which must
be accepted or rejected without
(15) negotiation, is allowed.一个被随机的选作去处置如何将一定数量的前在他们中间分配，而只有这一个人去提供，另外一个人必须选择接受或拒绝，而不被允许进行商议。
If, in fact, people are selfish and
rational, then the proposer should offer
the smallest possible share, while the
responder should accept any offer,
(20) no matter how small: after all, even
one dollar is better than nothing. In如果，事实上，人类是自私并理性的话，那么分配者应该提供最少的部分给回应者，而回应者应该接受任何的分配不论多么的少，毕竟甚至是一美元也比没有要来的好。
numerous trials, however, two-thirds
of the offers made were between
40 and 50 percent; only 4 percent
(25) were less than 20 percent. Among
responders, more than half who were
offered less than 20 percent rejected
the offer. Behavior in the game did not在大多数的试验中，然而三分之二的分配者在40％到50％之间进行分配。在回应者中，超过一半的得到少于20％的人拒绝了所给予的分配。
appreciably depend on the players’
(30) sex, age, or education. Nor did the在游戏中的行为并不依赖于游戏者的性别年龄或者是受教育程度。
amount of money involved play a
significant role: for instance, in trials
of the game that were conducted in
(35) as much as three times the subjects’
average monthly income, and still
responders refused offers that they
deemed too small.同时也不依赖于，在游戏中所涉及到的发挥重要作用的钱的数量：举例，在i举行的游戏的试验，数量大约是研究对象的月平均工资的三倍，依然有回应者拒绝分配他们认为数量太少。
B： ... to challenge ... factors other than selfishness
应该是 ... to challenge ... selfishness
B.use a particular study to challenge the argument (that the economic behavior of human beings may be motivated by factors other than selfishness)
作者没有challenge，括号内是作者的意见
呵呵 选B的同志一定是晕了
冷静！冷静！
Agree with leonchan!
BTW, can you post the Q7?
Many thanks!!!

B.use a particular study to challenge the argument (that the economic behavior of human beings may be motivated by factors other than selfishness)

冷静！冷静！
支持，作者是要提倡“人类经济行为是被非自私因素所刺激”这个命题，而不是B中说的challenge。
这是一个“反”题。
统揽全篇，文章并没有提出other factors
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Q7:
The passage implies that the results of the Ultimatum Game undermine theoretical economists’ characterization of human beings by
A. demonstrating that most people are inclined to try to maximize their own advantage whenever possible
B. indicating that people who do not have the option of negotiating might behave more generously than do those who have the option of negotiating
C. illustrating how people’s economic behavior depends to some extent on how large a sum of money is involved
D. showing that most people instinctively place their own economic self-interest ahead of the interest of strangers
E. suggesting that people’s economic behavior might in part be motivated by factors other than selfishness
----------------------------------------------------------------------
这道题为什么选E，为什么A不对？
Q7 E到底是什麼意思啊 other than是指motiveated by selfishness的意思還是說有其他factors?
不大懂other than的意思...
