“影响”；D项意为“各种影响”。而effect与influence的区别在于：effect更侧重于结果，尤指不好的结果。根据文中意思，C项和D项可以被排除。然后根据前后文。判断这里需要一个名词复数，故判断A项为正确选项。22、【C2】A、caseB、situationC、studyD、finding标准答案：A知识点解析：词义辨析题。A项意为“情况，事例，案件”；B项意为“形势，情况”；C项意为“学习，调查，研究(成果)”；D项意为“调查结果，研究结果”。可以根据上下文语境，选择“case”表示“事例”。故A项为正确选项。23、【C3】A、adaptionB、adoptionC、adaptationD、adeption标准答案：B知识点解析：词义辨析加综合判断题。A项意为“改编，适应”；B项意为“采纳，采用”；C项意为“改编，适应”；D项看似是adept的名词，其实在英语中不存在。根据该句表达的意思，应取“采纳”的含义，故B项为正确选项。24、【C4】A、answerB、replyC、addressD、take标准答案：C知识点解析：词义辨析加搭配题。A项answer的常用搭配为：answerquestions，即“回答问题”：B项reply为不及物动词，其后不能接宾语，意为“回复．回答”；C项address做“解决”之意讲时常使用的固定搭配为addressproblems(解决问题)；D项take表达类似含义的一个固定表达为takequestions表示“回答问题”。根据该句表达的意思，判断C项为正确答案。25、【C5】A、concerningB、associatingC、associatedD、relative标准答案：C知识点解析：词义辨析加搭配题。根据该句表达的意思，这里需要填入一个词与介词with构成词组，表示“关于，与……有关”的含义。A项concerning可以独立表示“关于”的含义，本身即为介词；B项associating虽可与with搭配使用，但在句中句意不当；C项构成associatedwith，为固定表达，表示“关于，与……有关”；D项relative不能与with搭配使用。故C项为正确答案。26、【C6】A、circumstancesB、conditionC、occasionsD、environment标准答案：A知识点解析：词义辨析加综合考查题。A项circumstances(复数形式)意为“境况，状况”；B项意为“条件，环境”；C项意为“场合”，这里为复数形式；D项意为“环境”。根据该句表达的意思，应选择A项。27、【C7】A、sectionB、elementC、segmentD、component标准答案：D知识点解析：词义辨析题。A项意为“章节，截面，(文章等的)部分”；B项意为“元素，成分”；C项意为“部分，断片”；D项意为“组成部分，构成部分”。根据该句表达的意思，判断应选择D项。28、【C8】A、replyB、answerC、actionD、response标准答案：D知识点解析：词义辨析题。A项意为“回复，回答”；B项意为“回答，答复”；C项意为“行动，动作”；D项意为“回应，反应，响应”。根据该句表达的意思，应该选D项。29、【C9】A、releasedB、publishedC、announcedD、issuing标准答案：A知识点解析：词义辨析加综合考查题。此处需要置人一个非谓语动词形式来引导可以修饰限定主语report的定语部分。A项意为“发布”；B项意为“出版”；C项意为“宣布”；D项意为“发布”。此时我们可以判断由于report与其后动名词所表达动作构成被动关系。所以应置入动词的被动形式。故根据该句表达的意思，判断A项为正确答案。30、【C10】A、supportB、favourC、favouringD、supporting标准答案：D知识点解析：词义辨析与搭配题。A项意为“支持”；B项意为“赞同，喜爱”；C项意为“赞同，喜爱”；D项意为“支持”。根据该句表达的意思，应判断排除B项和C项。此时，由于opento中的to不可能为动词不定式符号，即这里的to的词性是介词，故判断其后只能跟动名词作宾语，所以确定D项为正确答案。五、完形填空（填空）(本题共10题，每题1.0分，共10分。)Readthearticlebelowaboutstaffrecruitment.Foreachquestion(31-40),writeonewordinCAPITALLETTERSonyourAnswerSheet.Thereisanexampleatthebeginning(0).StaffRecruitmentRecruitmentreferstotheprocessofscreening,andselectingqualifiedpeople(0).ajobatanorganisationorfirm,orforavacancyinavolunteer-basedorganisationorcommunitygroup.Whilegeneralistmanagersoradministratorscanundertake【B1】______componentsoftherecruitmentprocess,mid-andlarge-sizeorganisationsandcompaniesoftenretainprofessionalrecruitersoroutsourcesomeoftheprocess【B2】______recruitmentagencies.Externalrecruitmentistheprocessofattractingandselectingemployeesfrom【B3】______theorganisation.Therecruitmentindustryhasfourmaintypesofagencies:employmentagencies,recruitmentwebsitesandjobsearchengines,"headhunters"forexecutiveandprofessionalrecruitment,andin-house【B4】______Recruitersaimtochannelcandidates【B5】______thehiringorganisationsapplicationprocess.Asageneralrule,theagenciesarepaidbythecompanies,【B6】______bythecandidates.Knownasemploymentagencies,recruitmentagencieshavehistoricallyhadaphysicallocation.Acandidatevisitsalocalbranchforashortinterviewandanassessmentbefore【B7】______takenontotheagency'sbooks.Recruitmentconsultantsthenworktomatchtheirpoolofcandidatestotheirclients'openpositions.Suitablecandidatesareshort-listedandputforwardforaninterviewwithpotentialemployersonatemporaryor【B8】______basis.A"headhunter"isindustrytermforathird-partyrecruiterwhoseeksoutcandidates,often【B9】______normalrecruitmenteffortshavefailed.Headhuntersaregenerallyconsideredmoreaggressivethanin-houserecruitersormayhavepreexistingindustryexperienceandcontacts.Largeremployerstendtoundertaketheirownin-houserecruitment,usingtheirhumanresourcesdepartment.Inadditiontocoordinatingwiththeagenciesmentioned【B10】______,in-houserecruitersmayadvertisejobvacanciesontheirownwebsites,coordinateinternalemployeereferrals,workwithexternalassociations,tradegroupsorfocusoncampusgraduaterecruitment.31、【B1】标准答案：SOME知识点解析：some意为“某些，部分”，修饰可数名词components，根据句意选择该词。32、【B2】标准答案：TO知识点解析：“outsource…to…”意为“把……工作外包给……办理；外包给……”。33、【B3】标准答案：OUTSIDE知识点解析：outsidetheorganisation意为“组织外部”，根据此句意“外部招聘是指从公司外挑选雇员”，应填该词。34、【B4】标准答案：RECRUITMENT知识点解析：此处需要一个与前三项一起表示并列关系的名词。前三项分别是招聘代理机构；招聘网站及职位搜索引擎；招聘经理及专业人员的“猎头公司”。此处应为公司内部的招聘。35、【B5】标准答案：INTO知识点解析：“channel…into…”意为“把……引导到；把……输送到”，这里表明招聘人员的目的是输送人才。36、【B6】标准答案：NOT知识点解析：根据句意：按照一般规则，招聘机构是由公司而不是由申请人付费的。因此选择否定词not。37、【B7】标准答案：BEING知识点解析：该词与过去分词taken一起构成被动语态，符合语法规则和句意。38、【B8】标准答案：PERMANENT知识点解析：permanent是temporary的反义词，与其构成并列成分。39、【B9】标准答案：WHEN知识点解析：when引导时间状语从句。40、【B10】标准答案：ABOVE知识点解析：mentionedabove意为“以上提到的……”。六、改错(本题共12题，每题1.0分，共12分。)Readthetextbelowaboutstrategicrecruiting.Inmostofthelines(41-52),thereisoneextraword.Iteitherisgrammaticallyincorrectordoesnotfitinwiththesenseofthetext.Somelines,however,arecorrect.Ifalineiscorrect,writeCORRECTonyourAnswerSheet.Ifthereisanextrawordintheline,writetheextrawordinCAPITALLETTERSonyourAnswerSheet.Theexercisebeginswithtwoexamples(0and00).0Thedesiretobecomemorestrategicthathasbeenespousedbyrecruiting00leadersformorethanoveradecade,andyet,yearafteryear,newlyintroduced【M1】______initiativesseemmoretacticalandadministrativethanitever.Recruitingprocesses【M2】______havenearlydoubledinsizewhenyoulo
