问题         Ask three people to look out the same window at a busy street corner and to tell you what they have seen.Chances are that you will receive three different answers.Although each person sees the same scene, each one perceives something different about it.Perceiving goes on in our minds.Of the three people who look out the window, one may say that he saw a policeman giving a cyclist a ticket.Another may say that he saw a rush-hour traffic jam at the intersection.The third may tell you that he saw a woman trying to cross the street together with four children.For perception is the mind’ s interpretation of what the senses—in this case our eyes—tell us.
        Many psychologists today are trying to determine how a person experiences or perceives the world around him.Using a scientific approach, these psychologists set up experiments in which they can control all of the factors.By measuring and charting the results of many experiments, they are trying to find out what makes different people perceive totally different things about the same scene. [br] The word "ticket" in the first paragraph probably means________.
选项 A、a slip of paper with which you are permitted to enter a theater
B、a notice issued to someone who has violated a traffic regulation
C、a slip of paper with which you can see a film
D、a notice that shows your right to do something
答案 B
解析 由单词定位到文中“Of the three people who look out the window, one may say that he saw a policeman giving a cyclist a ticket.”，由下文其他两人的描述可知,只是一个交通繁忙的十字路口的情景，结合本句中的policemen和cyclist推断，ticket应与违章罚款有关，所以ticket 在句中应当理解为“罚单”。故选B。
