问题 单项选择题

登门槛效应又称得寸进尺效应,是指一个人一旦接受了他人的一个微不足道的要求,为了避免认知上的不协调,或想给他人以前后一致的印象,就有可能接受更大的要求。这种现象,犹如登门槛时要一级台阶一级台阶地登,这样能更容易更顺利地登上高处。 根据上述定义,下列属于登门槛效应的是( )。

A.王大妈平时在村里很热心,乡亲们找她借针线、照顾小孩,她都很乐意

B.刚参加工作的小张经常帮同事们打扫办公卫生,赢得了同事的一致好评

C.蔡同学给一名外地游客指路后,该游客想让蔡同学带路过去,蔡同学觉得应该“好事做到底”,就答应了

D.即使收件人不要求,快递公司的小刘也是要送货上门的

答案

参考答案:C

解析: 本题采用关键信息法排除即可。“想给他人以前后一致的印象”和“接受更大的要求”是重要条件,定义项中体现了一种递进关系,即先接受“较小的要求”,再接受“更大的要求”。结合选项来看,A项中王大妈接受乡亲们“借针线、照顾小孩”的要求,是因为“热心”,体现不出为给乡亲们前后一致的印象;B选项中,同事们也没有对小张提出更大的要求,体现不出登门槛效应;C选项中给外地游客指路是一个“微不足道的要求”,给外地游客带路相对而言是一个“更大的要求”,而且蔡同学觉得应该“好事做到底”正是为了保持外地游客对自己印象的一致性,这属于登门槛效应;D选项中送货上门可能是小刘的工作要求,也可能是小刘主动的,体现不出登门槛效应。故本题正确答案为C。

     Another person's enthusiasm was what set me moving towards the success I have achieved. That
person was my stepmother.
     I was nine years old when she entered our home in rural Virginia. My father __1__ me to her with
these words, "I would like you to meet the fellow who is distinguished for being the worst boy in this
county and will probably start throwing rocks at you no later than tomorrow morning."
     My stepmother walked over to me, __2__ my head slightly upward, and looked me right in the eye.
Then she looked at my father and replied, "You are __3__.This is not the worst boy at all, but the
smartest one who hasn't yet found an outlet for his enthusiasm."
     That statement began a(n) __4__ between us. No one had ever called me smart. My family and
neighbors had built me up in my __5__ as a bad boy. My stepmother changed all that.

and my brother and I could be better __8__.
     When I turned fourteen, she bought me a secondhand __9__ and told me that she believed that I
could become a writer. I knew her enthusiasm; I __10__. It had already improved our lives. I accepted
her belief and began to write for local newspapers. I was doing the same kind of __11__ that great day
I went to interview Andrew Carnegie and received the task which became my life's work later. I wasn't

     What power __13__ has! When that power is released to support the certainty of one's purpose
