Part III Reading Comprehension (40 minutes)

Task 1

Jack Welch is among the famous CEOs because his management style is taught at business schools throughout the country. He has been with the General Electric Company (GE) since 1960. Having taken GE with a market value of about $12 billion, Jack Welch turned it into one of the largest and most admired companies in the world, with a market value of about $500 billion, when he stepped down as its CEO 20 years later, in 2000.

As Jack Welch wrote in a letter to shareholders: “In the old culture, managers got their power from secret knowledge: profit margins, market share, and all that... In the new economy, the role of the leader is to express a vision, and put it into practice. That calls for open, caring relations with every employee, and face-to-face communication. People who can’t convincingly (有说服力的) express a vision won’t be successful. But those who can will become even more open——because success builds up self-confidence.”

Welch believed that great business leaders have to:

· possess large amounts of energy, and

· know how to use that energy to motivate others. Welch moves from meeting to meeting, conveying that message—and many more others as well, some of which have become his trademarks:

· Business is simple.

· Don’t make it complicated.

· Face reality.

· Don’t be afraid of change.

· Use the brains of your workers.

36. According to the first paragraph, Jack Welch, as a CEO, is famous for his ______.

A. technical knowledge

B. overseas experience

C. family background

D. management style

37. When Jack Welch took charge of the company, it had a market Value of about ____.

A. $12 billion

B. $20 billion

C. $500 billion

D. $2000 billion

38. According to Jack Welch, the relations between the employer and employees should be ______.

A. personal and friendly

B. casual and natural

C. open and caring

D. strict and formal

39. In the sentence "... some of which have become his trademarks", the word "trademarks" means ______.

A. product brands

B. speaking manner

C. advertising strategy

D. special characteristics

40. This passage is mainly about ______.

A. relations between the employer and employees

B. Jack Welch’s view of business management

C. development history of GE company

D. courses taught in business schools

Task 2

From: Linda Smith

To: Clarice Ryan

Subject: Report on Employees’ Use of Time

Clarice, I agree that waste of work time is a serious issue. The Human Resources Department recently surveyed the employees. They are wasting nearly two hours per day.

Here are my ideas to reduce this waste. First we need to agree on what are the Most important behaviors to stop. For example, look at activity No.1 in the table below. Many people are doing this; however, it is the most difficult to stop. I recommend that we focus on activities No. 2, 4, and 5.

Making phone calls shows the largest difference between men and women. Women do this much more than men. We should ask all employees to limit these calls. They should return non-urgent messages at their lunch break.

For No. 4, we should focus on the younger age group. We will tell them that we are going to check their work accounts for personal messages. For No. 5, we can ask managers to watch this more carefully. Perhaps activity No. 3 should continue. This allows employees to know each other and it can increase their motivation. The managers will know if someone is spending too much time talking and not enough time working.

Are you available tomorrow? I’d like to meet with you to discuss our next step.

41. What problem does the writer find from the survey by the Human Resources Department?

A. Working conditions are to be improved.

B. Some employees need re-training.

C. Employees lack motivation.

D. Much work time is wasted.

42. The greatest difference between men and women in the non-work-related activities is ______.

A. taking long breaks

B. making phone calls

C. talking with colleagues

D. sending non-urgent messages

43. The employees are advised to return non-urgent messages ______.

A. after work

B. back at home

C. before office hours

D. during their Lunch break

44.The table shows that the non-work-related activities employees most often do was ________.

A. going online

B. talking with each other

C. writing personal emails

D. making personal phone calls

45. Why does the writer suggest that activity No.3 should continue?

A. It can help employees increase motivation.

B. It can help managers to check on the work accounts.

C. It can show how much time employees actually work.

D. It can encourage young employees to work more efficiently.

答案与详解

Part I Listening Comprehension

Section A

1、A

【听力原文】

W: Hi, Jack. Did you watch the football game last night?

M: Of course, I did. It was so exciting.

Q: What are they talking about?

【解析】事实细节题。此题询问对话双方在谈论什么话题。从女士问男士的问题“你昨晚看了足球比赛吗?”可知他们谈论的是“足球比赛”,故选项A为正确答案。

选项B(摇滚演唱会)、选项C(新电影)和选项D(脱口秀)在对话中都没有提到,因此都不正确。

2、C

【听力原文】

W: You’re working with this bank now, aren’t you?

M: Yes, I’ve been working here for 2 years as an assistant manager.

Q: What. is the man’s job position in the bank?

【解析】事实细节题。本题询问“男士在银行的工作职位是什么?”男士提到他“在银行当助理经理已经两年了”,由此可知答案为选项C。

选项A(电脑程序员)、选项B(秘书)和D(总工程师)在对话中都没有提及。事实细节题考查的通常与对话的实词有关,而且与表示“who(人物)”“what(什么)”、“when(时间)”、“where(地点)”和“why(原因)”等细节有关。因此,听力的过程中可重点抓听这些信息。

3、D

【听力原文】

W: Sir, what would you like to order?

M: Let me look at the menu for a moment first.

Q: Where does this conversation most probably take place?

【解析】推断题。本题询问“对话最可能发生在什么地方?”在对话中,女士提到了order(点菜),男士提到了menu(菜谱),由这两个词可以推断对话最可能发生在一家餐厅,故本题答案应为选项D。

在选项A(书店)、选项B(图书馆)和C(超市)这些地方,基本上都不会同时用到“点菜”和“菜谱”这两个词,故这三个选项不难排除。

4、C

【听力原文】

W: Good morning. What can I do for you?

M: I’d like to change 200 U.S. dollars.

Q: What did the man want to do?

【解析】事实细节题。本题询问“男士想要做什么?”根据男士的回答“我想兑换200美元”可知他想兑换货币,正确答案是选项C。

虽然选项A(兑现支票)、选项B(开一个账户)和选项D(存钱)都跟银行业务有关,但只要抓住男士提到的“change”一词,三个干扰项就可以一一排除了。

5、D 【听力原文】

M: Why are you interested in working with our company?

W: I think I will have a better chance for career development here.

Q: What is the man probably doing now?

【解析】推断题。试题询问“男士最有可能现在正在做什么?”对话中,男士问女士“为什么你有兴趣加入我们公司?”,女士回答“我想我在这里可以得到更好的职业发展机会。”由此可推断,男士是面试官,故正确答案为选项D。

男士提到“我们的公司”表明男士是面试官,女士是应聘者,选项B就可排除了。对话中没有涉及商品,也没有人表示欢迎,排除A(男士正在推销商品)和C(男士正在致欢迎辞)。

Section B

6-8

【听力原文】

W: Excuse me, sir. Is this your luggage?

M: Yes, it’s mine.

W: Would you please open it?

M: Sure, no problem.

W: This knife should not be taken onto the plane.

M: It’s only a small knife. I thought it could be brought onto the plane.

W: I’m sorry, but it’s restricted by the regulations.

M: It was a gift from my foreign friend and I want to keep it as a souvenir.

W: It that case, you can leave it at the airport and get it back when you return.

M: Good idea. Thank you very much.

6、B

Question

What is the man doing?

【解析】推断题。问题询问“男士正在做什么?”本题看似细节题,但涉及的内容不少。首先对话开头提到了女士要求男士把行李打开,发现男士的行李有一把小刀,于是女士说“小刀不能带上飞机”。从这些内容可以推断男士正在机场进行安全检查,因此本题答案应为选项B。

选项A(正在选购小刀)里的knife和选项C(正在找他的行李)里的luggage都在对话中有提及,而选项D(正在订机票)里的flight与对话的关系也很密切,如果光凭对话中的只言片语去做选择的话,很可能误选干扰项。

7、D

Question

Why does the man want to keep the knife?

【解析】事实细节题。问题询问为什么男士想要保留小刀。男士在对话中提到小刀“是一位外国朋友送的礼物”,他“想把小刀留作纪念”,由此可知本题应选D项。

本题稍具干扰项的是选项A(小刀是送给兄弟的一份礼物),该选项中的gift在对话中也有提到,但选项中的brother这一点信息却是无中生有的。选项B(用作开瓶器)和选项C(用作武器)均未在对话中提及。

8、A

Question

What might the man do with the knife?

【解析】推理判断题。本题询问男士会怎样处理那把小刀。在对话的末尾,女士建议男士把小刀存放在机场,回程的时候再取回,而男士认为这个建议很好,由此可推断他应该把小刀存放在机场,因此,本题应选A项。

女士一再说明小刀不能带上飞机,选项C(带着上飞机)肯定是不对的。选项B(把它送给朋友)和选项D(把它扔掉)文中均未提及。

9-10

【听力原文】

M: What time does the next train to London leave?

W: At 16:35, from Platform 8.

W: No, you have to change trains at Birmingham.

M: I see. One ticket to London, please.

W: Single or return, sir?

M: Single, please. W: 64 pounds, please.

M: Here you are.

W: Here is your ticket and the change, sir.

9、C

Question

What time does the next train leave for London?

【解析】事实细节题。题目询问下一班开往伦敦的列车的开出时间。根据对话内容At 16:35可以知道正确答案是选项C。

本题四个选项表达的时间在“分钟”的位置都是一样的,不同的只是“小时”的位置,只要抓住对话开头的16,就能选中答案。

10、B

Question

What kind of ticket does the man want to buy?

【解析】事实细节题。题目询问男士想买什么票。对话中,女士询问男士想要买“单程票还是双程票”,男士回答他要买的是“单程票”,故本题答案为选项B。

对话中提到的“票”的类型只有“单程票”和“双程票”,选项A(周票)和选项C(月票)并无提及。

Section C

11-15

【听力原文】

Ladies and gentlemen,

Now let me answer your last question: How to succeed in a job interview? The most important thing is that you should arrive on time; being late is not polite. You should also get dressed properly and neatly. Good manners are equally important. Don’t be too proud, neither too shy. What’s more, you should not be nervous, because it may affect your performance. Being confident can bring you to success.

Finally, be honest about yourself and never tell a lie, for honesty is the best policy. All in all, doing well in a job interview means a good chance of being employed. Wish you success in your job interview.

11、succeed

Question

What is the question the speaker tries to answer?

【解析】题目询问主讲人要回答什么问题。短文第一句就提到了他要回答最后一个问题:How to succeed in a job interview?由此可知此处应填succeed一词。

12、on time 【听力原文】

Question

What is the most important thing for a job interview?

【解析】题目询问面试中最重要的是什么。男士提到面试中最重要的是you should arrive on time,可见此处应填on time。

13、performance 【听力原文】

Question

Why shouldn’t you be nervous?

【解析】题目询问为什么面试者不能紧张。关于这个原因,短文中以because引出的状语从句出现:because it may affect your performance,因此,此处应填performance一词。

14、success 【听力原文】

Question

Why does the speaker think being confident in a job interview is also important?

【解析】题目询问为什么主讲人认为在面试时的自信同样重要。短文提到Being confident can bring you to success,可见应填写success一词。

15、a lie 【听力原文】

Question

What is the last piece of advice from the speaker?

【解析】题目询问主讲人最后一条建议是什么。短文中的Finally表明接下来的就是最后一条建议:Be honest... and never tell a lie,因此,此处应填写a lie。

Part II Structure

16、A

【解析】本题考查结果状语从句的引导词so...that...。so...that...常用于引出结果状语从句,意为“如此……以至……”。事实上,so...that...和such...that...都可以引出结果状语从句,两者的区别在于,so后紧跟的词是形容词或副词而such后紧跟的词是名词,据此就可以将本题最具干扰性的选项B排除,并选择选项A。

选项C和选项D虽然都是副词,都可以用于修饰形容词poor的程度,但它们不能与that 构成结果状语从句。可见本题的关键是谨记so...that...这个结构。

17、D

【解析】本题考查强调句型it is/was...that...。It is/was...that...句型可以用于强调句子当中除动词以外的其他任何成分。在本题当中,我们可以将强调句还原为一般的陈述句:Sales of e-business started to grow soon after the economic crisis. 由此可见,题目中强调的部分原为句子的时间状语。通过将时间状语提前放在it was和that中间,就可以起到强调时间状语的作用。符合强调句型结构的引导词只有选项D。

事实上,强调句型的引导词包括that和who,当强调的部分指的是“人”的时候,引导词可以用that或者who,除此之外,引导词一律用that。只要牢记这一句型结构(it is/was... that/who...),三个干扰项应该不难排除。

18、A

【解析】本题考查状语从句的引导词。从题目逗号前后两句的内容可以推断两句的关系应该是:前句为后句的条件;前句发生在前,后句发生在后。只有选项A(一旦……)适合句义,并能表达两句之间的逻辑关系。

选项BCE论什么)、选项C(是否)和选项D(无论怎么)都不适合表示时间先后的逻辑关系。

19、B

【解析】本题考查介词短语搭配。in order of...意为“按照……的次序”,是一个固定搭配,故本题只能选B。介词短语的搭配是考试的常考点,需要见一个记一个。

20、C

【解析】本题考查other和others的用法。因为空格后有名词part,可见空格需要的是一个形容词,选项B和选项C都含有用作形容词的other。两个选项中,other后面一定只能跟复数名词,而the other后面可以用单数或复数名词,据此可知本题应该选择选项C。the other part指的是撕下了the top part之后剩下的那一部分。

选项A和选项D都是代词,不符合空格处词性的要求。

21、A

【解析】本题考查have sth. done的结构。have sth. done意为“去做某事或把某事交给某人去做”,如have my hair cut的意思是“让别人帮我剪头发”,因此本题应选A,have your car serviced意为“把车交给(让汽车修理厂)进行保养”。

have是一个使役动词,常用于have sb. do sth. 或have sth. done结构,意思都是“让某人去做某事”。在本题中,可以不去考究句子上下文的意思,单凭词组的结构就可以马上将三个干扰项都排除掉,因为空格前的your car就是sth. ,跟在have sth. 后的只能是动词的过去分词,三个干扰项都不是动词service的过去分词。可以排除。

22、D

【解析】本题考查将来完成时用法。题目末尾的时间状语by the end of this year是一个很明显的提示,表明本题的动词时态应该是将来完成时,故本题答案为选项D。

凡是遇到by...引出的时间状语,如by the time...或者by the end...等,对应的主句的谓语为完成时,其中,表示“过去”的时间状语(如by the end of last year)对应过去完成时的主句谓语,而表示“将来”的时间状语(如本题)则对应将来完成时。

23、D

【解析】本题考查介词短语搭配。根据句意,可以判断本句要表达的是“把准备工作留到最后一分钟去做”。亦即“直到最后一分钟才做准备”之意,能表示“直到……才”这一意思的介词只有选项D。

在三个干扰项当中,能与“时间”the last minute搭配的只有选项A,选项B和选项C通常不与“时间”搭配。如果选择选项A,at the last minute意为“在最后一分钟”,leave your preparation at the last minute意思是“在最后一分钟准备”,句意不太通顺,也不太符合逻辑常理。

24、A

【解析】本题考查倒装句的构成。Only引出的状语放在句首会导致句子主语和谓语倒装,倒装后主语和谓语的位置为:助动词+主语+实义动词,由此可见,符合这种位置关系的只有选项A。

通常,当句首状语为否定词或带有否定意义的词语时(如Not until...,Hardly,Never...,Seldom等等),会导致句子中的主语和谓语倒装。但事实上,能引起倒装句的标志不只否定词,还有Only。它们引起的倒装句的主谓位置都是“助动词+主语+实义动词”

25、C

【解析】本题考查分同作定语的用法。空格处的动词的逻辑主语有可能是前面the course或者three books of case studies,但无论哪一个词组是它的逻辑主语,主语和该动词都构成主动的关系,因此动词cover应为其现在分词形式covering。

分词包括现在分词和过去分词。使用现在分词表明该动词与其逻辑主语构成“主动关系”;使用过去分词则表明动词与其逻辑主语构成被动关系。除此之外,现在分词可用于强调动作“正在发生”,过去分词可用于强调动作发生在“过去”。如the falling leaves可表示树

叶自行飘落(主动关系)和树叶正在飘落(正在发生),而an injured man意为“受了伤的人”,既表示“被动”,也表示受伤这个事件发生在“过去”。

Section B

26、turned

【解析】本题考查have sth. done结构。根据have sth. done这一结构的组成,空格处的动词应改写为其过去分词形式,即turned。

在have sth. done这一结构当中,sth. 和done构成被动的关系,正如本题中的cell phone 是“被关闭的”,因此,除了根据have sth. done这个结构外,还可以根据动词turn off与逻辑主语cell phone的被动关系来确定动词应为过去分词形式。

27、directly

【解析】本题考查形容词和副词的转化。空格处后面的involved是过去分词用作形容词,修饰the parties,意为“冲突涉及的各方”,involved为形容词,在它前面修饰它的词应为副词,故应将direct改写为副词directly。

将形容词改写为副词的规则比较简单,通常直接在形容词后加上后缀-ly即可。当然,形容词和副词的转化也有不规则的现象,如good—well;还有形容词和副词同形的,如fast,hard等。

28、active

【解析】本题考查的是动词和形容词的转化。空格前的and表明空格处应该是和full 并列的形容词,因此应将动词act转化为形容词形式active。

动词转变成形容词有多种形式,除了使用后缀-ive之外,还有和-ful,-sive,-end,-able 等,如:wonder(惊讶)—wonderful(美妙的);intense(加强)—intensive(强烈的);depend(依靠)—dependent(依靠别人的)—dependable(可靠的)。

29、management/managing

【解析】本题考查定语的形式。根据空格前后的冠词和名词可以判断空格处应为形容词,或者更准确地说,应为定语,因为此处的定语可以是manage的现在分词managing或者其名词形式management,managing control和management control的意思都是“管理控制”,即“对于管理方法的控制”。

在解答本题的时候,要注意,定语不一定都得是形容词,有时电可用一个名词去修饰限定另外一个名词,例如train station(火车站),delivery boy(快递员)等,这些名词叠加的词组需要平时注意累积。另外,动词的分词有过去分词和现在分词,本题用了manage的现在分词,而不用过去分词managed,因为managing能够描述和限定control是对什么方面的控制,而managed则表明“control”受到了“managed”,虽然形式上managed是可以当定语的,但意思上不符合句义。

30、application

【解析】本题考查的是动词和名词的转化。空格前的your表明此处应填写一个名词,因此,本题应将动词转化为名词形式application.

动词变化为名词时,可以添加的后缀很多,除了-tion之外,还有-ance,-ence,-ment 等,如:perform—performance(表现);exist—existence(存在);adjust—adjustment(调整)等。

31、be taught

【解析】本题考查的是情态动词should后的动词形式。情态动词后应跟动词原形,而动词可以是主动或被动的形式。在本题中,从句中的主语young children与teach应该是被动的关系,小孩应该是学习道路安全规则的人,而不是讲授这些规则的人,因此,空格处应为teach的被动形式be taught。

情态动词包括:will,would,shall,should,can,could,may,might和must,它们的

特点就是其后的动词应保持原形,可简略表示为:情态动词+do或情态动词+be done。

32、helping

【解析】本题考查的是enjoy doing这一固定搭配。空格处需要enjoy所带的宾语,宾语可以是名词或动名词,此处应将动词help改写为动名词形式helping。enjoy doing意为“喜欢做……”

动词后的宾语除了名词外,还有不定式to do或动名词doing,但是一般来说,不同的动词要求不同的宾语,有些只能带不定式作宾语,另外一些则只能带动名词作宾语,enjoy 就是属于只能用于enjoy doing而不能用enjoy to do的。和enjoy相似的动词还有:finish(完成),mind(介意),avoid(避免);consider(考虑),delay(耽搁),deny(否认),fancy(想象),imagine(想象),keep(保持),suggest(建议)等。

33、was offered

【解析】本题考查动词的时态和语态。句子开头的yesterday’s interview表明句子的谓语应为一般过去时。根据句子的上下文可判断句子的主语she和动词offer应构成被动关系,表示“她被给予了那个职位”,即“她得到了那个职位”,因此,本题答案应为was offered。考生在复习与时态相关的语法点时,应注意每个不同时态的常用时间标志语(如句中有often,usually,sometimes等时间状语时,动词常用一般现在时;last week;in 1999,tonight等时间词提示要用一般过去时;tomorrow,next year,in the future则提示用将来时;already,yet,for,since,by the time...结构常与完成时连用),以便答题时能够很好地加以区分,提高准确率。

34、to transfer

【解析】本题考查agree to do这一固定搭配。空格处需要填入agree的宾语,agree是一个不及物动词,它与宾语的搭配包括agree to do和agree with sb. on sth.题目提供的transfer 是一个动词,故应套用agree to do这个搭配,因此,本题答案应为to transfer。有些动词必须带不定式为其宾语,用法与agree to do相同的动词还有:want(想要)decide(决定),promise(承诺),refuse(拒绝),wish(许愿),expect(期望)等。

35、suitable

【解析】本题考查动词和形容词的转化。在空格前面,句子的主语、谓语和宾语都已齐全,因此空格处需要的应该是一个修饰成分,此处需要的是修饰roles的定语,可将suit 转化为形容词suitable。

有些动词的过去分词和现在分词都可以充当形容词,但是,在遇到需要将动词转化为形容词的时候,首先考虑的应该是与该动词属同一词族的固有的形容词,如本题。如果同一词族里没有对应的形容词,才考虑将动词转化为其过去分词或现在分词形式作形容词用。

Part III Reading Comprehension

Task 1

36、D 事实细节题。

【解析】本题询问杰克·韦尔奇以什么闻名。文章第1段第1句because后的内容解释了他成名的原因与他的“management style(管理风格)”有关,因此本题因选D项。

选项A(技术知识)、选项B(海外经历)和选项C(家庭背景)均无原文依据。本题是典型的细节题,只要把选项与原文对比,不难发现只有正确选项有原文依据,而干扰项都是无中生有的。

37、A 事实细节题。

【解析】本题询问韦尔奇接管通用电气公司时,其市场价值是多少。文章第1段第3

句提到当时通用电气的市场价值是12 billion,故本题答案为A项。

本题稍具干扰性的是选项C。在第1段第3句提到了两个数字,12 billion是韦尔奇接管通用电气时公司的市场价值,500 billion是他离任时公司的市场价值。该句的句式复杂,不容易完全理解。但只要想想,本文赞誉韦尔奇是一位伟大的首席执行官,两个数字的对比也是要说明韦尔奇的厉害之处,这样一来,不难判断小的那个数字才符合题意。

38、C 事实细节题。

【解析】本题询问韦尔奇认为雇主和雇员之间应保持什么关系。关于这一关系,第2段韦尔奇写的信中的第3句有提及,其中的用词open和caring与选项C一模一样,故选项C为本题答案。

选项A(个性、友好的),选项B(随意、自然的)和选项D(严格、正式的)这些用词都与原文不符,在原文也没有它们的近义词。

39、D 词义推断题。

【解析】本题询问trademark一词在文中的意思。根据上下文,可以推断作者用trademark 一词是想说明韦尔奇与众不同的特征,据此,选项D与原文的内容最为契合。

trademark在字典里就是“商标”的意思,但韦尔奇并非一个商品,因此不能简单地将trademark直接对等于其字面意思“商标、品牌”,选项A(产品品牌)不正确。在文章当中,trademark用于形容韦尔奇在商界上与众不同的管理风格,选项B(说话的方式)与“管理风格”无关,而选项C(广告策略)中的advertising也与“管理风格”不同。

40、B 主旨大意题。

【解析】本题询问本文写作的主旨。全文主要包括两部分,第一段介绍韦尔奇成功之处在哪里,剩余的段落介绍他的管理理念,可见全支围绕的是韦尔奇的管理理念,因此本题应选B项。

选项A(雇主和官员之间的关系)、选项C(通用电气的发展史)和选项D(商学院的课程)虽然都有在文章中提及,但它们都是细节,而非“主旨”。

Task 2

41、D 事实细节题。

【解析】本题询问人力资源部的调查发现什么问题。根据第1段最后一句可知,问题涉及员工对工作时间的浪费,因而D项为正确答案。

本题其实与文章主题有关,文章开头所示的“邮件主题”表明邮件要讨论的是有关“时间”的问题,据此亦可排除选项A(工作条件有待改善)、选项B(部分员工需要重新培训)和选项C(员工缺乏动力),因为它们都与主题无关。

42、B 事实细节题。

【解析】本题询问男女员工在哪方面区别最大。抓住题干中的greatest difference,对比原文第2段第1句,就能发现男女员工区别最大的在于“打电话”这一方面,故本题应选B 项。

其他三个选项虽然也都在原文中有提及,但本题只要找准文中对应信息,不难选择。不然也可以直接看表格里面的数据对比,答案也是不言而喻的。

43、D 事实细节题。

【解析】本题询问员工建议在什么时候才回复不紧急的来电。本题的关键词是non-urgent,抓住这个词,就能找到答案是第3段最后一句的their lunch break,所以选项D 是正确的。

选项A(下班后),选项B(回到家后),选项C(上班前)都没有原文依据。

44、A 推理判断题。

【解析】本题询问最常见的与工作无关的行为是什么。本题可通过对比表格的数据得

出答案,“上网”是员工们最常做的与工作无关的事情,故选项A为本题答案。

有关本题的信息并无在段落中详述,而要求考生通过理解表格的条目及其百分比才能做出正确的选择。

45、A 事实细节题。

【解析】本题询问为什么作者认为第三种行为可以继续做。题干中的No.3是解题的关键,在文章第4段第4、5句可以找到相关信息,其中第5句开头的this指的是第4句提到的activity No.3,可见第5句提到第3种行为的好处有两点:①让员工互相了解;②提高员工的工作积极性。选项A就是第2点好处,故为本题答案。

选项B(它能帮助经理检查工作账户)、选项C(它能显示员工的实际工作时间)和选项D(它能鼓励年青的员工工作更有效率)都没有原文依据。“事实细节题”是阅读理解的常考题型,解答的时候只要抓住题干的关键词。答案往往不难定位。

Task 3

46、driverless

【解析】由文章的第二句话“Launched in 1986, Sky Train is the oldest and one of the longest fully-automated, driverless, rapid transit systems in the world.”可知,其中的一个特点是无人驾驶。

47、guide way

【解析】由第一段第三句话“It runs on a gui de way, high above city streets”可知答案。

48、three

【解析】短文第一段提到了Blue Line, Red Line and Green Line,所以一共有三条线。

49、bus system

【解析】短文第二段第二句话说“You can also ride Vancouver’s metro bus system and travel around downtown, and many other beautiful areas. ”可知答案为地铁公交系统。

50、grocery stores

【解析】最后一段第二句话说“You can buy Sky Train day passes at most grocery stores like Safeway and Save on Foods.”可知大部分的杂货店都可以买到票。

Task 4

51、F,L

【解析】engineering(工程),design(设计);professional(职业的,专职的),game (游戏),player(玩家)

55、D,P

【解析】data(数据),entry(录入);online(网络),marketing(营销)

Task 5

56、are not happy/are unhappy

【解析】公司员工对公司现在的保险方案有什么态度?由第一段第二句话“Our staff members are not happy with our current insurance plan”可知员工对现在的保险并不满意。

57、worse/poorer

【解析】公司员工为什么抱怨现在的保险?短文中说到“Naturally, we are not happy about paying more money for poorer service”,可知现在的保险不仅涨价而且服务质量越来越差。

58、Health Care system

【解析】作者想从Mr. Black那里获得什么信息?短文第一段最后一句话说“Therefore, we are interested in learning more about your Health Care system. ”,本题只是换了一种说法而已。

59、their own doctors

【解析】作者关于保险方案问的第一个问题是什么?第三段的第一句话说“First, our employees want to choose their own doctors. Does your program allow this?”可知,作者问的第一个问题是员工可不可以自由选择医生。

60、business hours

【解析】员工为什么希望周末和晚上可以看医生?正文最后一句话说“Our employees have busy work schedules, and it is not always convenient for them to go to appointments during regular business hours.”,可知,员工很难在正常的时间去看医生。

Part IV Translation- English into Chinese

61、D

【解析】本句是一个主从复合句,含有一个because引导的原因状语从句,而该状语从句里面又包含了一个who引导的定语从句,修饰anyone。除了句式之外,关键的词汇包括disappointed(失望的)和be qualified for(有资格做……)。选项D既符合原句式的逻辑关系,对词汇的翻译也准确无误,为最佳答案。选项C不如选项D的地方在于没有准确翻译词汇particularly qualified,该词汇的意思是“尤其合格的”,而非如选项C所译的“有特殊资质的”。选项A和选项B较差,都误将disappointed(失望)当作了appointed(任命)。两者虽然都保留了原因状语从句的翻译,但是里面的定语从句却译得不好。选项A漏译了particularly,而“能力”也不知从何而来,但总算保留了定语从句与anyone的修饰关系,也译出了qualified的意思;相比之下,选项B更糟糕,它把修饰anyone的qualified译成了“主任”的修饰成分,而且该选项中的“肯做……的”纯属无中生有。

62、C

【解析】本句是一个复合句,包括动词believe后的宾语从句,和逗号后的非限制性定语从句。注意,该定语从句的which指的是前面整个主句的内容,因此,这个定语从句中的which is the reason why可以等同于so(因此),与主句形成因果关系。四个选项都有注意到这种因果关系,故四个选项的质量就取决于对词汇的翻译了。该句关键的词汇是quality(质量),quality control(品质控制)和attach importance to...(重视)。根据以上的分析,选项C是最佳答案。选项D次之,因为该选项将quality control译为了“质量标准”,并加进了原句没有的“一贯坚持……”这一内容。选项A将quality译为了“素质”,如果没有后面的quality control作对照,将quality译为“素质”其实无不可,但是有了quality control就能发现quality应该指企业生产的产品的“质量”,而非企业员工素质。选项B是最不可取的,该选项完全将宾语从句和定语从句的内容译错了,关键词汇全部译错。

63、A

【解析】本句是一个包含目的状语从句的复合句。还值得注意的是,本句并非以主语John开始,而是以一个状语开始,所以,处理好该状语与主句的关系也很重要。选项A是最佳选项,该选项译对了句首状语和主句的关系,也译对了so that(以便于……)引出的目的状语从句。选项B、C和选项D虽然句式看似区别很大,但其实三个选项有一点相似之处:

他们都将原句中的目的状语从句译作了结果状语从句,把约翰“想要找份好工作”这个愿望译为了事实。选项D除了这个错误外,其他都算译对了。选项B比选项D稍差,因为选项B 将约翰选修的课程译成了约翰“自学”这些课程。选项C是最不可取的,因为该选项漏译了“经济学”这一重要的信息点。

64、B

【解析】本句句式不算复杂,是含有一个if引导的条件状语从句的复合句。难点是:(1)indicated是后置定语,修饰delivery time,意为“显示的送货时间”,因此该从句中的动词是is,而非indicated;(2)regardless of及其后的名词性从句合起来组成一个相对于主句内容的让步条件,这一部分的意思是“不管订单是什么时候下的”。根据以上分析,选项B 为最佳答案。选项A次之,因为该选项将regardless of后的“when”错译为了“what”,也可以说,该选项漏译了“时间”这一内容。选项C犯了和选项A同样的错误,另外,选项C没有理解indicated在句中的作用,将其译为了动词。选项D最不可取,该选项中的“你要求14天后发货”和“另外下订单”都与原文的意思相差甚远,再加上将when译为了what(什么货物),选项D与原句契合的内容已所剩无几。

65、造车要耗能,开车也要耗能。能源很昂贵,且供不应求。消耗能源会造成污染,并导致全球气候变暖。汽车发动机所需的能量依靠燃烧燃料。汽车发动机的能效不高。燃料产生的能量只有约20%用来驱动汽车,其余的能量则作为废热排出,或用于汽车照明和取暖等。

【解析】这篇短文说明了汽车工业与环境的关系。原文运用了多个并列句或并列成分,如第1、2、3句和最后一句,这些句子中的并列成分多用and连接,但中文翻译可用“还有”,“也”,“而且”,“并”等连接,译文读起来才不会沉闷。这些并列的成分包括并列的名词、动词、形容词等,特别是动词,往往让读者迷惑。就拿最后一句为例,or引导的并列从句的谓语is used for...的主语是什么呢?它的主语到底是The rest还是waste heat呢?只有处理好这些并列关系,我们才能将内容之间的逻辑关系译对。另外,原文中有一些关键词汇,例如run,平时run都用做不及物动词,但在本文中却用做了及物动词,如果将run it直译为“让汽车动起来”,这符合中文的惯用表达式,译为“开车”会更好。还有contribute to通常是“贡献于……”的意思,在本文中contribute to意为“是造成……的原因”,这些看似简单的词汇,翻译的时候也需要花一番心思。
