【答案】第1题:A

第2题:D

第3题:B

第4题:B

第5题:A

【解析】36.【试题答案】A

【试题解析】推理判断题。根据题干纵观全文，从文章可以看出TerryWolfischCole只是一个善于利用网络分享自己日常生活和利用网络便利自己日常生活的普通家庭主妇。本题可用排除法解答，A选项“一个中年家庭主妇”符合题意；B选项“超市售货员”文中没有提到，所以排除；C选项“唱片主持人”，根据第一段的内容可知此段最后一句中提到的discpresenter只是一个比喻，而并不是她的真实身份，所以排除C选项；D选项“在线新闻作家”，真正的在线新闻作家并不会只写自己的生活日常。因此A选项正确。

37.【试题答案】D

【试题解析】细节事实题。根据题干定位到第三段第一句“WolfischCole…ispartofanewbreedofpeoplewhoarefiltering,shapingandevencreatingmediaforthemselves.（WolfischCole……是一群为自己过滤、塑造甚至创造媒体的新群体中的一员。）”。A选项“他们为公众提供新闻和娱乐”与事实不符，这些新群体并不是为公众提供新闻和娱乐，而是制定符合他们自己口味的新闻；B选项“他们开启了媒体革命”，不正确，根据文章，媒体革命源于电视遥控器的发明；C选项“他们帮助普通人控制媒体”文中没有提到；D选项“他们自己选择听或看什么”符合题意，因此D选项正确。

38.【试题答案】B

【试题解析】推理判断题。根据题干定位到文章第五段，该段落分别选择了老、中、青三个年龄阶段的典型人物来说明iMedia的拥护者包括了从老年到少年各个年龄阶段的人。A选项“他们要么很老，要么很年轻”说法错误，忽略了来自缅甸的44岁的RogierVanBakel这种中年人。B选项“他们由各个年龄层的人组成”符合段意；C选项“他们位于纽约，德克萨斯和缅因州”说法太绝对，文中只是拿来自这几个地方的人举例子，并不代表全部；D选项“他们有共同的兴趣”文中没有提到。因此B选项正确。

39.【试题答案】B

【试题解析】推理判断题。根据题干定位到文章第六段第二句：“Thetermfits”,shesays,“becausethetrendisallaboutme-me-media—theideaistogetexactlywhatyouwant,whenandwhereyouwantit.”（她表示：“这个词很合适，因为现在的趋势都是关于‘我-我-媒体’——其理念是在你想要的时间和地点得到你想要的东西。”）。A选项“人们在媒体上展示自己”与段意不符；B选项“人们通过媒体满足了自己需求”符合段意；C选项“人们可以看他们喜欢的任何节目”和D选项“它是一种个人的发明”文中都没有提到，因此B选项正确。

40.【试题答案】A

【试题解析】推理判断题。根据题意可定位到文章最后一段的第一句“RosenandotherstracethebeginningsoftheiMediarevolutiontotheinventionoftheTVremote,whichmarkedthefirstsubtleshiftofmediacontrolawayfrombroadcastersandintothehandsoftheaveragecouchpotato（Rosen等人将iMedia革命的开端追溯到电视遥控器的发明，这标志着媒体控制从广播公司转移到普通电视迷手中的第一次微妙转变。）”，由此可推断出电视遥控器的出现使人们或多或少地拥有了媒体的掌控权。A选项“因为它在一定程度上使普通人能够控制媒体”符合段意；B选项“因为它为人们提供了更多的有线电视频道”，互联网是有线电视频道变多的原因；C选项“因为它导致了20世纪90年代互联网的发明”，遥控器并不是互联网发明的原因；D选项“因为它使电视迷的生活更容易了”说法太片面，便利了电视迷的生活并不是遥控器重要的意义所在，因此A选项正确。

【答案】注重细节是每个人都可以而且应该做到的事，尤其是在就业市场紧张的情况下。人力资源专家鲍勃•格罗斯利在他每天收到的求职申请中注意到了这一点。“有那么多候选人自我淘汰，真是令人吃惊。”他说。

“收到的简历上布满污点。有些求职者连公司名称都懒得拼对。一旦看到这样的错误，我就会淘汰这个候选人。”“如果他们不能顾及这些细节，我们为什么要把工作托付给他们？”

我们可以过于注重细节吗？当然。完美主义者总是为了一件小事花费比事情本身更大的代价去完成。加州大学旧金山分校副教授查尔斯•加菲尔德说：“为了不失去树中之林，我们必须不断自问，我们正在处理的细节如何与大局相适应。如果它们不适合，我们就应该放弃它们，转而做其他事情。”

了解我们的目的有助于我们判断所承担的每一项任务的重要性。我们常常认为别人成功的原因是某种特殊的秘密或幸运的机遇。但成功很少是如此神秘的。我们一次又一次地看到，在力所能及的范围内将一些小事做好，大的回报就会随之而来。

问题1选项

【答案】D

【解析】考查形容词辨析。A项ingenious“有独创性的，机灵的”，B项empirical“经验主义的”，C项objective“客观的”，D项indignant“愤愤不平的，气愤的”。根据句子后半部分的意思“有人说他犯了一个错误”可知，空格处填入D项符合句意。句意：当有人暗示史密斯先生犯了一个错误时，他变得非常气愤。因此，该题选择D项正确。
