　　Picture this: you win two tickets to a sold-out concert and eagerly text to ask your friends if they'd like to join. There comes their response “Maybe.” Your mood immediately turns, for you need to wait for their decisions before you can figure out your plans for the concert.
If you've experienced anything like the above anecdote, you're not alone. People responding “maybe” to invitations is a common yet annoying aspect of social life. What goes on in people's heads when they aren't sure whether to accept an invitation Social invitations can be a delicate dance. People often misread what someone extending an invitation wants to hear and overestimate an inviter's likelihood of preferring a “maybe” over a “no.” Moreover, they fail to realize how much more disrespected people feel when they receive a “maybe” in response to their invitation.
Naturally, we wanted to figure out why this awkward dynamic plays out. We found that it's largely due to something called “motivated reasoning”. Motivated reasoning occurs when a person interprets information in a biased(有偏差的) way to suit their own wishes. In other words, invitees convince themselves that inviters want to hear “maybe” instead of “no” because a “maybe” is better for the invitees, allowing them to leave their options open. Besides, people tend to overestimate the negative consequences of saying “no” to invitations, thinking it will upset, anger and disappoint inviters.
However, there were certain situations that made people more comfortable saying “no” to an invitation. When recipients of an invitation put themselves in the shoes of the person extending the invitation, they were more likely to realize that they'd probably prefer a definite answer. When the participants got invited to do something they didn't want to do, they had no desire to keep their options open. The motivated reasoning then became irrelevant.
While navigating social situations can be tricky, being direct and definite is sometimes best. It might reduce your options. But it'll keep those who invite you from being left uncertain and maybe they'll still think of you when the next concert comes to town.
1. Why is the concert anecdote mentioned at the beginning
A. To explain the background of the invitation. 　 B. To stress the importance of quick replies.
C. To encourage immediate decision-making. 　 D. To introduce a common social situation.
2. What is the main reason for the response of “maybe” to an invitation
A. A biased interpretation of social cues.
B. A desire for harmonious communication.
C. An underestimation of the consequences of refusal.
D. An understanding of the inviter's expectation.
3. What is the author's suggestion in the last paragraph
A. Keeping your options open for better plans.
B. Accepting invitations to maintain friendships.
C. Prioritizing clear response over open options.
D. Thinking twice before refusing an invitation.
4. What is the best title for the passage
A. The Psychology Behind “Maybe”
B. The Hidden Consequence of “Maybe”
C. “Maybe”: A Polite Escape from Conflict
D. “Maybe”: A Perfect Solution to Invitations

　　Every day, we speak to and spend time with the people who mean the most to us. However, think about how many people you interact with in a typical week are the ones you wouldn't consider as close connections. 1.　　　 In sociology, these are known as our “weak ties”, referred to as such to differentiate them from our strong ties, like close friends and family members.
2.　　　 For example, if you spoke about your job hunt to a group of close friends, they might only be aware of the same job opportunities as you because you move in the same circles. However, mentioning it to an acquaintance, like a waiter, connects you to people outside your own social circle, which can provide unexpected job opportunities.
“Weak ties can serve special functions not served by close ties, including providing access to unique information and resources,” says Susan Sprecher, distinguished professor at Illinois State University. “Additionally, many people interact with more weak ties throughout a day than they do with close ties. 3.　　　”
Indeed, weak ties can give us a real mental health boost. A recent study done by Sprecher indicated people with wider connections of weak ties tend to be happier. 4.　　　. They reported feeling more happiness and greater feelings of belonging on days when they interacted with more classmates than usual.
Given that they have such a strong impact on our lives, why not create weak ties 5.　　　 Often, this will mean going outside and speaking to people, whether it's those you pass in the street, who serve you in shops, or with whom you share a class.
A. The research involved students.
B. You find yourself in a better mood.
C. We just need to engage with other people.
D. Weak ties can have a smaller effect than you might think.
E. This diverse social network is related with good health and well-being.
F. For example, you chat with the guys who regularly serve you at the store.
G. Strong ties tend to form closed social groups with limited new information.

　　When I was 9, we packed up our home in Los Angeles and arrived at Heathrow, London on a gray January morning. Everyone in the family settled quickly into the city except me. Without my beloved beaches and endless blue-sky days, I felt at a loss and out of place. Until I made a discovery.
Southbank, at an eastern bend in the Thames, is the center of British skateboarding, where the continuous crashing of skateboards left your head ringing. I loved it. I soon made friends with the local skaters. We spoke our own language. And my favorite: Safe. Safe meant cool. It meant hello. It meant don't worry about it. Once, when trying a certain trick on the beam(横杆), I fell onto the stones, damaging a nerve in my hand, and Toby came over, helping me up: Safe, man. Safe. A few minutes later, when I landed the trick, my friends beat their boards loud, shouting: “Safe!Safe!Safe!” And that's what mattered—landing tricks, being a good skater.
When I was 15, my family moved to Washington. I tried skateboarding there, but the locals were far less welcoming. Within a couple of years, I'd given it up.
When I returned to London in 2004, I found myself wandering down to Southbank, spending hours there. I've traveled back several times since, most recently this past spring. The day was cold but clear; tourists and Londoners stopped to watch the skaters. Weaving (穿梭)among the kids who rushed by on their boards, I found my way to the beam. Then a rail-thin teenager, in a baggy white T-shirt, skidded(滑)up to the beam. He sat next to me. He seemed not to notice the man next to him. But soon I caught a few of his glances. “I was a local here 20 years ago,” I told him. Then, slowly, he began to nod his head. “Safe, man. Safe.”
“Yeah,” I said. “Safe.”
1. What can we learn about the author soon after he moved to London
A. He felt disappointed.　 B. He gave up his hobby.
C. He liked the weather there.　 D. He had disagreements with his family.
2. What do the underlined words “Safe!Safe!Safe!” probably mean
A. Be careful!　B. Well done!　C. No way!　D. Don't worry!
3. Why did the author like to spend time in Southbank when he returned to London

　　According to Jessica Hagy, author of How to Be Interesting, it's not difficult to make yourself interesting at a dinner party.
1.　　　, if you're out of your comfort zone or if you're wandering into somebody's house for the first time. So the main thing is just to show up and be adventurous, trying different foods and talking to strangers.
People love to talk about themselves. If you can start the conversation with a question other than “What do you do for a living ”, you'll be able to get a lot more interesting conversation out of whomever it is you're talking to. 2.　　　, it can bring in “I have this old, broken-down vehicle” or “I rode the bus with these crazy people who were laughing at silly jokes in the back.” It just opens up conversation.
3.　　　 If you can't take their wine away, you should certainly try to take away their soapbox(讲台). If you're the host, you can ask them to help you in the kitchen with something and just remove them from the situation. 4.　　　.
And what about that other dinner-party killer: awkward silence If you're faced with an awkward silence at a dinner party, the only thing that always gets everyone talking again is to give the host a compliment(赞扬). 5.　　　. Just quickly turn around and say,“This cake is extremely delicious and you have to tell me all about it.”
So being interesting at a dinner party isn't that hard.
　　A. How do you know the host
B. The first step is to go exploring
C. If you ask the question “How did you get here ”
D. Be prepared to have awkward conversations with strangers
E. Or turn the conversation into a topic where they have little to say
F. What about that person who has had too much to drink or won't stop talking
G. He or she is the person who is feeling the weight of that awkwardness the most

　　Loneliness has quietly become a defining issue of modern society, permeating (弥漫在) workplaces, neighborhoods, and even families. A nationwide survey by the Social Research Institute shows that 42% of urban adults report feeling lonely at least three days a week, a figure that has doubled in the past decade. This isolation isn't just an emotional burden; studies link it to higher rates of depression, anxiety, and even physical illnesses like heart disease.
Now, psychologists propose a surprisingly simple remedy: meaningful small talk. In a study published in The Journal of Social Psychology, researchers observed that people who engaged in brief, genuine conversations with strangers, such as chatting with a barista or a neighbor, experienced a 20% reduction in loneliness scores over four weeks. “Small talk is often dismissed as insignificant, but it's the building block of social connection,” explains Dr. Emma Wilson, the study's lead researcher.
Crucially, the effectiveness of small talk depends on sincerity, not just frequency. The study found that forced or insincere conversations, like awkward pleasantries, barely alleviated loneliness, while authentic exchanges—even about routine topics like the weather or a shared hobby—created a sense of belonging. Additionally, the research focused on face-to-face interactions and did not explore the impact of online small talk, such as social media comments.
Still, the findings shed light on a simple way to combat loneliness, a problem that's growing as societies become more individualistic. Even in densely populated cities, many people report feeling “alone in a crowd”, with social interactions reduced to superficial nods or digital exchanges.
Experts warn that chronic loneliness poses risks comparable to smoking or obesity, yet solutions remain underemphasized. The new study highlights how everyday interactions can be transformative. “We tend to overcomplicate loneliness solutions,” notes Dr. Wilson. “But sometimes, a simple ‘hello’ and a genuine listen are all it takes to bridge the gap between isolation and connection.”
1. How does the author introduce the issue in Paragraph 1
A. By citing data.　 B. By telling stories.
C. By comparing concepts.　 D. By introducing experts.
2. What is key to effective small talk
A. Topic complexity.　 B. Conversation length.
C. Sincerity of interaction. 　 D. The number of strangers.
3. What's the problem of modern social interactions
A. They are mostly online. 　B. They lack depth.
C. They reduce loneliness. 　 D. They focus on hobbies.
4. What does Dr. Wilson suggest about combating loneliness
A. Avoiding digital interactions. 　 B. Studying complex methods.
C. Simplifying solutions.　 D. Ignoring minor conversations.

　　On March 7, 1907, the English statistician Francis Galton published a paper which illustrated what has come to be known as the “wisdom of crowds” effect. The experiment of estimation he conducted showed that in some cases, the average of a large number of independent estimates could be quite accurate.
This effect capitalizes on the fact that when people make errors, those errors aren't always the same. Some people will tend to overestimate, and some to underestimate. When enough of these errors are averaged together, they cancel each other out, resulting in a more accurate estimate. If people are similar and tend to make the same errors, then their errors won't cancel each other out. In more technical terms, the wisdom of crowds requires that people's estimates be independent. If, for whatever reasons, people's errors become correlated or dependent, the accuracy of the estimate will go down.
But a new study led by Joaquin Navajas offered an interesting twist(转折) on this classic phenomenon. The key finding of the study was that when crowds were further divided into smaller groups that were allowed to have a discussion, the averages from these groups were more accurate than those from an equal number of independent individuals. For instance, the average obtained from the estimates of four discussion groups of five was significantly more accurate than the average obtained from 20 independent individuals.
In a follow-up study with 100 university students, the researchers tried to get a better sense of what the group members actually did in their discussion. Did they tend to go with those most confident about their estimates Did they follow those least willing to change their minds This happened some of the time, but it wasn't the dominant response. Most frequently, the groups reported that they “shared arguments and reasoned together.” Somehow, these arguments and reasoning resulted in a global reduction in error.
Although the studies led by Navajas have limitations and many questions remain, the potential implications for group discussion and decision-making are enormous.
1. What is paragraph 2 of the text mainly about
A. The methods of estimation.　 B. The underlying logic of the effect.
C. The causes of people's errors.　 D. The design of Galton's experiment.
2. Navajas' study found that the average accuracy could increase even if 　　　.
A. the crowds were relatively small　B. there were occasional underestimates
C. individuals did not communicate　D. estimates were not fully independent
3. What did the follow-up study focus on
A. The size of the groups.　 B. The dominant members.
C. The discussion process.　 D. The individual estimates.
4. What is the author's attitude toward Navajas' studies
A. Unclear.　B. Dismissive.　C. Doubtful.　D. Approving.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I was in Philadelphia for a conference when I saw an ad in the hotel. A nearby theater was showing a documentary(纪录片) about several local animal shelters that were helping to save abandoned dogs across the country. I love animals, and I felt an urge to go to this fund raising event. However, none of my co-workers would go with me, and I was worried about walking on the street alone at night.?
I resigned myself to spending the evening in my hotel room, but as soon as I got back to my room I felt restless and bored. The theater where the event was taking place was only about five blocks from the hotel, and the area around the hotel didn't seem particularly dangerous. So, I decided to brave it. I gathered up my wallet and room key and set off.?
It was already getting dark and the streets were nearly deserted. I managed to find the street the theater was on, but when I turned the corner, I stopped in shock. In front of the theater were a group of bikers—very big, tough-looking bikers.?
I've known lots of motorcycle enthusiasts and most are nice people. However, in this case, I was a woman all alone, in a strange neighborhood, at night, and there were twenty or so very large men—all wearing insignia(徽章) that indicated they were in some sort of club—standing before me. Warning bells began to sound in my head, and my heart was pounding. Was I at the right theater Had I misread the date of the event ?
A sign outside the theater told me that I was in the right place on the right evening. Nevertheless, I wondered if I should rush back to my hotel instead of walking through that crowd of bikers. I finally decided that I would be safer inside the theater. Hopefully, the bikers would have gone away by the time the film was over.

The Popsicle Kids
A nearly empty box of Popsicles (棒冰) in the freezer, left from a grandchild's visit, caught my attention. Initially, I wanted to throw it away, but my wife suggested we give the remaining Popsicles to the neighborhood children. Her suggestion changed our life and led us to a future full of “Popsicle Kids.” My wife and I, retired on Social Security, live in an apartment complex. After careers in sales and nursing, our daily concerns revolved around aches, pains, and dinner. We often wondered what good we were to the world.
That changed dramatically after we gave away the first Popsicle.
Minutes after watching a neighbor boy, a second grader, walk away with an icy treat, our doorbell rang. An adorable blond girl, about six, smiled sweetly,“Is it true you're giving away Popsicles ”
With the box empty, we returned to our concerns.
Early the next morning, the doorbell rang repeatedly. Standing on our porch were the four children from the previous day. They vocalized their wants, chanting (有节奏地喊), “We want Popsicles! We want Popsicles!”
Looking into their eager young faces, I wondered,“What have I started ” Sensing a victory, they nodded eagerly when I explained the rules: ring the bell once, one Popsicle per day, and share something good about their day. But their thin shoulders bent downwards in disappointment when I mentioned they had to give something in return. I came to the rescue, suggesting they share something positive about their day, like what they learned at school or helping another student. Over time, new rules were added: “Ladies first,” “Don't interrupt,” and “Properly get rid of the sticks.”
On holidays, they expressed their understanding of why the day was celebrated. Over the years, about fifty youngsters visited. Some became part of my life, like the four kids who joined me on the steps one spring to read “Where the Red Fern Grows.” We discussed catching crawfish, loving pets, and family relationships. This simple act of sharing Popsicles transformed our life, bringing joy and meaning to both the children and ourselves.

I met Gunter on a cold, wet and unforgettable evening in September. I had planned to fly to Vienna and take a bus to Prague for a conference. Due to a big storm, my flight had been delayed by an hour and a half. I touched down in Vienna just 30 minutes before the departure of the last bus to Prague. The moment I got off the plane, I ran like crazy through the airport building and jumped into the first taxi on the rank without a second thought.
That was when I met Gunter. I told him where I was going, but he said he hadn't heard of the bus station. I thought my pronunciation was the problem, so I explained again more slowly, but he still looked confused. When I was about to give up, Gunter fished out his little phone and rang up a friend. After a heated discussion that lasted for what seemed like a century, Gunter put his phone down and started the car.
Finally, with just two minutes to spare we rolled into the bus station. Thankfully, there was a long queue(队列) still waiting to board the bus. Gunter parked the taxi behind the bus, turned around, and looked at me with a big smile on his face. “We made it,” he said.
Just then I realised that I had zero cash in my wallet. I flashed him an apologetic smile as I pulled out my Portuguese bankcard. He tried it several times, but the card machine just did not play along. A feeling of helplessness washed over me as I saw the bus queue thinning out.
At this moment, Gunter pointed towards the waiting hall of the bus station. There, at the entrance, was a cash machine. I jumped out of the car, made a mad run for the machine, and popped my card in, only to read the message:“Out of order. Sorry.”

　　Picture this: you win two tickets to a sold-out concert and eagerly text to ask your friends if they'd like to join. There comes their response “Maybe.” Your mood immediately turns, for you need to wait for their decisions before you can figure out your plans for the concert.
If you've experienced anything like the above anecdote, you're not alone. People responding “maybe” to invitations is a common yet annoying aspect of social life. What goes on in people's heads when they aren't sure whether to accept an invitation Social invitations can be a delicate dance. People often misread what someone extending an invitation wants to hear and overestimate an inviter's likelihood of preferring a “maybe” over a “no.” Moreover, they fail to realize how much more disrespected people feel when they receive a “maybe” in response to their invitation.
Naturally, we wanted to figure out why this awkward dynamic plays out. We found that it's largely due to something called “motivated reasoning”. Motivated reasoning occurs when a person interprets information in a biased(有偏差的) way to suit their own wishes. In other words, invitees convince themselves that inviters want to hear “maybe” instead of “no” because a “maybe” is better for the invitees, allowing them to leave their options open. Besides, people tend to overestimate the negative consequences of saying “no” to invitations, thinking it will upset, anger and disappoint inviters.
However, there were certain situations that made people more comfortable saying “no” to an invitation. When recipients of an invitation put themselves in the shoes of the person extending the invitation, they were more likely to realize that they'd probably prefer a definite answer. When the participants got invited to do something they didn't want to do, they had no desire to keep their options open. The motivated reasoning then became irrelevant.
While navigating social situations can be tricky, being direct and definite is sometimes best. It might reduce your options. But it'll keep those who invite you from being left uncertain and maybe they'll still think of you when the next concert comes to town.
1. Why is the concert anecdote mentioned at the beginning
A. To explain the background of the invitation. 　 B. To stress the importance of quick replies.
C. To encourage immediate decision-making. 　 D. To introduce a common social situation.
2. What is the main reason for the response of “maybe” to an invitation
A. A biased interpretation of social cues.
B. A desire for harmonious communication.
C. An underestimation of the consequences of refusal.
D. An understanding of the inviter's expectation.
3. What is the author's suggestion in the last paragraph
A. Keeping your options open for better plans.
B. Accepting invitations to maintain friendships.
C. Prioritizing clear response over open options.
D. Thinking twice before refusing an invitation.
4. What is the best title for the passage
A. The Psychology Behind “Maybe”
B. The Hidden Consequence of “Maybe”
C. “Maybe”: A Polite Escape from Conflict
D. “Maybe”: A Perfect Solution to Invitations

　　Every day, we speak to and spend time with the people who mean the most to us. However, think about how many people you interact with in a typical week are the ones you wouldn't consider as close connections. 1.　　　 In sociology, these are known as our “weak ties”, referred to as such to differentiate them from our strong ties, like close friends and family members.
2.　　　 For example, if you spoke about your job hunt to a group of close friends, they might only be aware of the same job opportunities as you because you move in the same circles. However, mentioning it to an acquaintance, like a waiter, connects you to people outside your own social circle, which can provide unexpected job opportunities.
“Weak ties can serve special functions not served by close ties, including providing access to unique information and resources,” says Susan Sprecher, distinguished professor at Illinois State University. “Additionally, many people interact with more weak ties throughout a day than they do with close ties. 3.　　　”
Indeed, weak ties can give us a real mental health boost. A recent study done by Sprecher indicated people with wider connections of weak ties tend to be happier. 4.　　　. They reported feeling more happiness and greater feelings of belonging on days when they interacted with more classmates than usual.
Given that they have such a strong impact on our lives, why not create weak ties 5.　　　 Often, this will mean going outside and speaking to people, whether it's those you pass in the street, who serve you in shops, or with whom you share a class.
A. The research involved students.
B. You find yourself in a better mood.
C. We just need to engage with other people.
D. Weak ties can have a smaller effect than you might think.
E. This diverse social network is related with good health and well-being.
F. For example, you chat with the guys who regularly serve you at the store.
G. Strong ties tend to form closed social groups with limited new information.

　　When I was 9, we packed up our home in Los Angeles and arrived at Heathrow, London on a gray January morning. Everyone in the family settled quickly into the city except me. Without my beloved beaches and endless blue-sky days, I felt at a loss and out of place. Until I made a discovery.
Southbank, at an eastern bend in the Thames, is the center of British skateboarding, where the continuous crashing of skateboards left your head ringing. I loved it. I soon made friends with the local skaters. We spoke our own language. And my favorite: Safe. Safe meant cool. It meant hello. It meant don't worry about it. Once, when trying a certain trick on the beam(横杆), I fell onto the stones, damaging a nerve in my hand, and Toby came over, helping me up: Safe, man. Safe. A few minutes later, when I landed the trick, my friends beat their boards loud, shouting: “Safe!Safe!Safe!” And that's what mattered—landing tricks, being a good skater.
When I was 15, my family moved to Washington. I tried skateboarding there, but the locals were far less welcoming. Within a couple of years, I'd given it up.
When I returned to London in 2004, I found myself wandering down to Southbank, spending hours there. I've traveled back several times since, most recently this past spring. The day was cold but clear; tourists and Londoners stopped to watch the skaters. Weaving (穿梭)among the kids who rushed by on their boards, I found my way to the beam. Then a rail-thin teenager, in a baggy white T-shirt, skidded(滑)up to the beam. He sat next to me. He seemed not to notice the man next to him. But soon I caught a few of his glances. “I was a local here 20 years ago,” I told him. Then, slowly, he began to nod his head. “Safe, man. Safe.”
“Yeah,” I said. “Safe.”
1. What can we learn about the author soon after he moved to London
A. He felt disappointed.　 B. He gave up his hobby.
C. He liked the weather there.　 D. He had disagreements with his family.
2. What do the underlined words “Safe!Safe!Safe!” probably mean

1.　　　, if you're out of your comfort zone or if you're wandering into somebody's house for the first time. So the main thing is just to show up and be adventurous, trying different foods and talking to strangers.

3.　　　 If you can't take their wine away, you should certainly try to take away their soapbox(讲台). If you're the host, you can ask them to help you in the kitchen with something and just remove them from the situation. 4.　　　.
And what about that other dinner-party killer: awkward silence If you're faced with an awkward silence at a dinner party, the only thing that always gets everyone talking again is to give the host a compliment(赞扬). 5.　　　.

　　Loneliness has quietly become a defining issue of modern society, permeating (弥漫在) workplaces, neighborhoods, and even families. A nationwide survey by the Social Research Institute shows that 42% of urban adults report feeling lonely at least three days a week, a figure that has doubled in the past decade. This isolation isn't just an emotional burden; studies link it to higher rates of depression, anxiety, and even physical illnesses like heart disease.
Now, psychologists propose a surprisingly simple remedy: meaningful small talk. In a study published in The Journal of Social Psychology, researchers observed that people who engaged in brief, genuine conversations with strangers, such as chatting with a barista or a neighbor, experienced a 20% reduction in loneliness scores over four weeks. “Small talk is often dismissed as insignificant, but it's the building block of social connection,” explains Dr. Emma Wilson, the study's lead researcher.
Crucially, the effectiveness of small talk depends on sincerity, not just frequency. The study found that forced or insincere conversations, like awkward pleasantries, barely alleviated loneliness, while authentic exchanges—even about routine topics like the weather or a shared hobby—created a sense of belonging. Additionally, the research focused on face-to-face interactions and did not explore the impact of online small talk, such as social media comments.
Still, the findings shed light on a simple way to combat loneliness, a problem that's growing as societies become more individualistic. Even in densely populated cities, many people report feeling “alone in a crowd”, with social interactions reduced to superficial nods or digital exchanges.
Experts warn that chronic loneliness poses risks comparable to smoking or obesity, yet solutions remain underemphasized. The new study highlights how everyday interactions can be transformative. “We tend to overcomplicate loneliness solutions,” notes Dr. Wilson. “But sometimes, a simple ‘hello’ and a genuine listen are all it takes to bridge the gap between isolation and connection.”
1. How does the author introduce the issue in Paragraph 1
A. By citing data.　 B. By telling stories.
C. By comparing concepts.　 D. By introducing experts.
2. What is key to effective small talk
A. Topic complexity.　 B. Conversation length.
C. Sincerity of interaction. 　 D. The number of strangers.
3. What's the problem of modern social interactions
A. They are mostly online. 　B. They lack depth.
C. They reduce loneliness. 　 D. They focus on hobbies.
4. What does Dr. Wilson suggest about combating loneliness
A. Avoiding digital interactions. 　 B. Studying complex methods.

　　On March 7, 1907, the English statistician Francis Galton published a paper which illustrated what has come to be known as the “wisdom of crowds” effect. The experiment of estimation he conducted showed that in some cases, the average of a large number of independent estimates could be quite accurate.
This effect capitalizes on the fact that when people make errors, those errors aren't always the same. Some people will tend to overestimate, and some to underestimate. When enough of these errors are averaged together, they cancel each other out, resulting in a more accurate estimate. If people are similar and tend to make the same errors, then their errors won't cancel each other out. In more technical terms, the wisdom of crowds requires that people's estimates be independent. If, for whatever reasons, people's errors become correlated or dependent, the accuracy of the estimate will go down.
But a new study led by Joaquin Navajas offered an interesting twist(转折) on this classic phenomenon. The key finding of the study was that when crowds were further divided into smaller groups that were allowed to have a discussion, the averages from these groups were more accurate than those from an equal number of independent individuals. For instance, the average obtained from the estimates of four discussion groups of five was significantly more accurate than the average obtained from 20 independent individuals.
In a follow-up study with 100 university students, the researchers tried to get a better sense of what the group members actually did in their discussion. Did they tend to go with those most confident about their estimates Did they follow those least willing to change their minds This happened some of the time, but it wasn't the dominant response. Most frequently, the groups reported that they “shared arguments and reasoned together.” Somehow, these arguments and reasoning resulted in a global reduction in error.
Although the studies led by Navajas have limitations and many questions remain, the potential implications for group discussion and decision-making are enormous.
1. What is paragraph 2 of the text mainly about
