参考答案

1.B解析：由题干中的candidates定位到第九个小标题下第二段第二句Theyarenotlookingfor...,butforpeoplewhocanbepositiveandrisetochallenges.同义转述题。此处问如今招聘方寻求什么样的优秀应聘者。根据线索词定位可以直接在本句中找到答案，招聘方寻求积极、勇于迎接挑战的人选，故B)为正确答案。

2.moreinformation。moreinformation。解析：根据题干中的信息词concern和callthedrugcompany定位到最后一点，可知你在用新药时，要向医生询问清楚有关药物的情况，让药剂师以专家顾问的身份来解决你对药物及其副作用的额’外疑问，你也可以给制药公司打免费电话询问更多的信息，或是登录其网站，由此可得答案。

3.B解析：定位句后半句提到keephimfromthosewalkingalongthebeach，其中keepfrom的意思是“使……远离……”，这从侧面说明塔塔先生因为新汽车厂的事情而非常忙碌，故本题答案为B。

4.A

5.makingallthesoftwaresimplermakingallthesoftwaresimpler解析：第8段第2句，降低通讯费用、开发简单的软件可以使另外一些人也可以加入因特网。

6.A解析：第3句提到了EmekBasket的研究主要针对Americancounty，可见，本题应选A。

7.B解析：本题涉及到有线电视的技术发展。该段倒数第二句提到，在二十世纪七十年代末期，有线电视就找到了解决扩大器问题的方法，也就是在这时，有线电视也得到技术上新的发展：允许在电缆服务上增加更多的节目了，故答案为B项。

8.C

9.A解析：该段首句BobNelson首先提出跟不服同事升迁的员工见面，第二句和第三句的祈使句给出关于下一步如何做的建议，题干中的it'sbetter…to即表示建议。[A]explainreasonsforthepromotions即是对第三句中Tellthemwhythisworkerreceivedthepromotion的同义转述，故为答案。

10.C解析：题干关键词是prioritiesinadoptingtheirfosterchild，但是查读文章并不能发现相关信息。

11.theimpactithastheimpactithas解析：由题干中successful定位到全文末段第二句ButoneotherwaytomeasurethesuccessoftheGamesistheimpactithasonthehostcityafterthetorchisextinguished．题干中的Beijing2008与原文中的theGames同指；题干中的Beijing和原文中的hostcity同指；题干中的itisover和原文中的thetorchisextinguished表示的都是“奥运会结束”。故本题应填入theimpactithas。

12.B

13.aggravateasthmasymptomsinchildren。aggravateasthmasymptomsinchildren。解析：细节题。根据题干定位到第四个小标题首段末句Itfoundthatincreasesinairpollutiontendedtoaggravateasthmasymptomsinchildren，即：空气污染的增加恶化孩子的哮喘症状，故得答案。

14.whattheyhavetodotogetrich。whattheyhavetodotogetrich。解析：本题考查对文章最后一段的理解以及文章意旨的整体把握，“Youneedrichpeopleinyoursocietynotsomuchbecauseinspendingtheirmoneyortheycreatejobs,butbecauseofwhattheyhavetodotogetrich."这句话的意思是富人在为自身创造财富的过程中也在为社会创造生产力，这就是为什么社会需要富人，文章结尾处作者还用亨利福特的例子来说明了这一点。

15.B解析：本题涉及天然气交通工具的工作原理。小标题NaturalGasVehicleDesign下首段第一句指出天然气交通工具和汽油交通工具使用thesamebasicprinciples，题干中的quitedifferent与此相悖。

16.B解析：段首处设题。本题目是要考查网络邮箱的盈利情况，从定位句可知，网络邮箱现在还不是经济行业，众多的网络邮箱运营商诸如Google，Microsoft，Yahoo!，AOL等确实借助于它们的网邮服务投放广告，但是那只占很小的部分，由此可知，题干所说已获得巨额利润，与原文不符。

17.B解析：这两句提到，T-Pain自2005年推出第一张专辑以来，已有十多首带有机械感的轻快单曲登上了排行榜的前10名。他有4首歌在今年2月8号的格莱美颁奖典礼上获得提名，而他的影响力仍在扩大。由此可推断出，T-Pain取得了很大的成功，故答案为[B]。

18.D解析：本题问“为什么闲谈的重要性不可低估?”根据关键词“smalltalk”可将相关部分定位于小标题为“SmallTalk(闲谈部分)”。其中第五自然段最后三句话提到“Peoplemeet,haveanicechat,exchangeinforma
