1WhichofthefollowingistrueaccordingtoParagraph1?

A、Full-timeemploymentisanewinternationaltrend.

Thewriterwascompelledbycircumstancestoleaveherjob.

C^Alateralmovemeanssteppingoutoffull-timeemployment.

D、Thewriterwasonlytooeagertospendmoretimewithherfamily.

标准答案:B

知识点解析•：本题可参照文章的第1段。从中可知，当我决定辞去专职工作时，我

从未想到自己可能成为国际新潮流的一分子。一次平级调动伤害了我的自尊，也妨

碍了我的职位升迁，这件事促使我放弃了我那引人注目的职业。但是，我以一位不

再受尊崇的政府大臣的口气宣称，“我想多陪陪家人”，以此来掩饰我辞职的真正原

因。据此可知，作者是因为形势所迫而辞职的。B项与文章意思相符，因此B项为

正确答案。

2、Thewriter'sexperimentshowsthatdownshifting.

A、enableshertorealizeherdream

B、helpshermoldanewphilosophyoflife

C、promptshertoabandonherhighsocialstatus.

D、leadshertoacceptthedoctrineofShemagazine

标准答案：BJ

知识点解析：从文章第2段的内容可知，令人惊异的是，大约两年半的时间，我写

了两部小说。随后，我的这种被美国人称为“慢节拍”的尝试已经将我那陈旧的借口

转化成了彻底的事实。我已经由过去7年里LindaKelsey在《女性》杂志.匕一再宣

扬的“拥有一切”哲学的积极倡导者，变成一个对一切浅尝辄止就感到喜悦的女人。

从第3段的内容可知，我发现，放弃那种“快节奏生活”的教条而选择“慢节拍”的做

法带来的回报要比金钱方面的成就和社会地位的提高丰厚得多。据此可知，“放慢

节奏''的实践促使作者改变了人生观。B项与文章的意思相符，因此B项为正确答

案。

"Jugglingone'slife"probablymeanslivingalifecharacterizedby.

A、non-materialisticlifestyle

abitofeverything

C>extremestress

D^anti-consumerism

标准答案：C

知识点露析：本题可参照文章的第3段。从中可知，我发现，放弃那种“快节奏生

活''的信念而选择"慢节拍''会带来比金钱和社会地位更大的回报。Kelsey长期承受

巨大压力，由《女性》杂志编辑部退下来之后，我恐怕她亦将与我有相同的发现。

什么事都不能劝服我重新回到那种Kelsey曾经倡导而我本人也曾钟爱的生活：12

小时工作日，重压下的最后期限，工作中的尔虞我诈、提心吊胆、焦虑不安，在

“最佳时期”为人父为人母受到约束。据此可知，“Jugglingone飞life”可能指的是一

种紧张、压抑的生活。C项与文章的意思相符，因此C项为正确答案。

4、Accordingtothepassage,downshiftingemergedintheU.S.asaresultof.

A、thequickpaceofmodernlife

B、man'sadventurousspirit

C、man'ssearchformythicalexperiences

D、theeconomicsituation

标准答案：D

知识点解析：本题可参照文章的第5段。从中可知，这一趋势在美国是对经济衰落

的反映，它是在20世纪80年代后期企业缩小规模致使大规模裁员之后才开始，现

在仍和节俭的观点密切相关。而在英国，至少在我所认识的那些过慢节拍生活的中

产阶级当中，寻求朴素的生活方式却有着不同的原因。据此可知，美国出现放慢节

奏的生活方式与经济有关。D项与文章的意思相符，因此D项为正确答案。

5、Whichcanbeinferredfromthearticle?

A、Theauthorwasfedupwithherpresentjob.

B、TheauthorwasprobablyamarriedbusinesswomanofAmerica.

C、Anticonsumerismreferstopreventionofconsumption.

D、Kelseyhadpredictedthistrendsevenyearsbefore.

标准答案：B

知识点解析：作者没有明确表现出对目前这份工作的厌倦，她只不过是觉得长期那

么紧张那么卖命地工作太累了，失去了享受生活的机会。最后一段的开头一句话可

以表明作者是个女性。开始一段表明她有家庭。文中提到了Kelsey7年前就在杂志

上倡导过“拥有一切”哲学，但不是预见到了“慢节拍''生活这一趋势。

6、Whatistheauthor'sattitudetowardthe"downshifting"trendwecanseefromthis

article?

A、Obscure.

B、Supportive.

C、Opposing.

D^Ironical.

标准答案：B

知识点解析：作者在第3段第1句就说：我发现，放弃那种“快节奏生活”的信念而

选择“慢节拍”会带来比金钱和社会地位更大的回报，这里讲的是慢节拍生活的好

处。可见作者对此是持肯定态度的。所以B项为正确答案。

7^Bythefirstsentenceofthepassagetheauthormeansthat.

A、heisfairlyfamiliarwiththecostofadvertising

everybodyknowswellthatadvertisingismoneyconsuming

C、advertisingcostsmoneylikeeverythingelse

D、itisworthwhiletospendmoneyonadvertising

标准答案：D,

知识点解析：在第1句中作者指出：“花钱做广告是我知道的最好的花钱方式。'‘正

确答案为D项。

8、Inthepassage,whichofthefollowingisNOTincludedintheadvantagesof

advertising?

A、Securinggreaterfame.

B、Providingmorejobs.

C>Enhancinglivingstandards.

D、Reducingnewspapercost.

标准答案：A

知识点解析：从文章第1、2段可以得出正确答案。B项与文章第1段第4句“通过

促进需求的增加，它确保对劳动力的需求，因此是应对失业的有效方法“一致。C

项与第1段第3句内容一致。D项与第1段最后一句内容一致。A项在文中未涉

及，因此A项正确。

9、Theauthordeemsthatthewell-knownTVpersonalityis.

A、verypreciseinpassinghisjudgementonadvertising

B、interestedinnothingbutthebuyers'attention

C、correctintellingthedifferencebetweenpersuasionandinformation

D、obviouslypartialinhisviewsonadvertising

标准答案：D

知识点解析：见文章最后两段。电视名人的观点在第3段第3句中提到：他反对广

告，认为广告的目的在于劝说而不在于提供信息。在第4句和第5句中，作者提出

了自己的观点：“他过分挑剔了。广告的目的本来就是去说服人。”这表明作者不同

意电视名人的观点。由此可知，D项为正确答案。

10、Intheauthor'sopinion,.

A^advertisingcanseldombringmaterialbenefittomanbyprovidinginformation

B、advertisinginformspeopleofnewideasratherthanwinsthemover

C、thereisnothingwrongwithadvertisinginpersuadingthebuyer

D^thebuyerisnotinterestedingettinginformationfromanadvertisement

标准答案：C

知识点解析：从第3段最后一句“广告的目的本来就是去说服人和最后一段第1句

可以得出答案。C项为正确答案。A项与第3段作者的观点相反。B项与作者观点

明显不符。D项文章未曾提及。

11、Advertisingcanbebestdepictedas.

A、distributionofinformation

B、ameasureofpromotion

C、akindofproductioncost

D、awaytopersuadeconsumertobuy

标准答案：A

知识点解析：本文讲到了做广告的各方面作用：促销产品、产品质量的保证、企业

形象等，可以说是综合信息的传播。

12^Intheauthor'seyes,whatisthebasicpurposeofadvertising?

A、Distributionofinformation.

B、Providinginformation.

C、Topersuadeconsumertobuytheproducts.

D、Reducingthecostforpromotion.

标准答案：C

知识点解析：本文最后两段讲到了：近来，我听到一位电视名人声称，他反对广

告，因为广告是在说服人而不是提供信息。他过分挑剔了。广告的目的本来就是去

说服人。可知本题答案为C项。

A、itsreturnswellcompensateforthesacrifices

B、itisrewardedwithmoney,fameandpower

C、itsgoalsarespiritualratherthanmaterial

D、itissharedbytherichandthefamous

标准答案：A'

知识点解析：本题可参照文章的第1段。从中可.知，如果雄心壮志要受到重视的

话，那么它所带来的回来—财富、荣誉以及对自己命运的主宰——必须让人们认

为为它做出的牺牲是值得的。雄心壮志的传统若要激发活力，那么它就应该得到人

们的广泛认可；尤其应该得到那些受人羡慕之士的高度重视，特别是应该得到那些

受过教育的人们的高度重视。据此可知，要想雄心壮志受到高度重视，除非它所带

来的回报值得为它做出牺牲。A项与文中的意思相符，因此A项为正确答案。

14、Thelastsentenceofthefirstparagraphmostprobablyimpliesthatitis.

A^customaryoftheeducatedtodiscardambitioninwords

B、toolatetocheckambitiononceithasbeenletout

C、dishonesttodenyambitionafterthefulfillmentofthegoal

D、impracticalfortheeducatedtoenjoybenefitsfromambition

标准答案：c.

知识点解析：本题可参照文章的第1段。从中可知，令人奇怪的是，正是那些受过

教育的人声称，他们不再把抱负当做理想了；而他们中的大部分人可能已经从抱负

中获得了利益一如果不是从他们自，己的抱负中获得了利益，那么就是从他们的

父辈和祖父辈的抱负中获得了利益。这话中显然透着虚伪，如同马跑后才让大家去

关马厩门，而受过教育者自己正骑在马上。据此可知，实现了理想后就否认自己有

过抱负，显然是虚伪之举。C项与文章的意思相符，因此C项为正确答案。

15>Somepeopledonotopenlyadmittheyhaveambitionbecause.

A、theythinkofitasimmoral

B、theirpursuitsarenotfameorwealth

C、ambitionisnotcloselyrelatedtomaterialbenefits

D、theydonotwanttoappeargreedyandcontemptible

标准答案：D

知识点解析：本题可参照文章的第2段。从中可知，与过去相比，现在的人们对成

功以及成功标志的兴趣似乎并没有减少；别墅的位置、旅游的景点以及轿车的品牌

可能会改变，但是，对这类东西的需求似乎并没有减少。有所改变的是，人们不再

像过去那样轻松、公开地坦承自己的梦想，他们这样做是怕别人说自己爱出风头、

贪得无厌、俗不可耐。于是，我们现在看到的虚伪现象似乎比以前任何时候都多。

对于这样的人以及更多类似的其他人来说，恰当的解释是“要不惜一切代价获得成

功，但避免显示出野心勃勃”。据此可知，人们虽然有抱负，但却不敢表露出来，

因为他们担心受到别人的指责。D项与文章的意思相符，因此D项为正确答案。

16,Fromthelastparagraphtheconclusioncanbedrawnthatambitionshouldbe

maintained.

A、secretlyandvigorously

B、openlyandenthusiastically

C、easilyandmomentarily

D、verballyandspiritually

标准答案：B

知识点解析：本题可参照文章的最后一段，从中可知，对抱负的攻击有很多，这些

攻击来自于不同的角度。结果，在美国，人们不再像以前那样把抱负看成是一种健

康的动力，看成是一种应该受到羡慕、应该深深地扎根于年轻人心目中的品质，因

而对它的支持可能比以前少了。但这并不意味着人们没有了抱负，并不意味着人们

感受不到它对人的鼓舞和启发了，只不过是人们不再公开以它为荣了，更不愿意公

开表白它了。当然，由此产生了一些后果，抱负或被迫转入地下，或是被暗藏心

中。于是，情况就成了这样——左边是愤怒的批评家，右边是愚笨的支持者，而中

间，通常是大多数认真而努力地在生活中追求着成功的人们。据此可知，作者认为

人们应该大胆、公开地追求自己的理想。B项与文章的意思相符，因此B项为正确

答案。

17、Whichistheattitudeoftheauthortotheambition?

A^Indifferent.

BNCritical.

C、Positive.

D^Neutral.

标准答案：C

知识点解析：作者客观描述了人们对雄心壮志的追求和态度，肯定了雄心壮志的积

极作用，解释了人们反对它的根由。由此可见作者对“雄心壮志''的态度，因此C

项为正确答案。

18、WhatistheattitudeofmostAmericanpeopletowardambitionstatedinthisarticle?

A、Critical.

B、Supportive.

C、Positive.

D、Obscure.

标准答案：C

知识点解析：作者在文中最后一段描述的情况是这样：左边是气愤的批评家，右边

是愚蠢的支持者，而中间通常是大多数认真而努力地在生活中追求成功的人。所以

答案为C项。

19、[Ri]

A、

B、

C、

D、

E、

标准答案：D

知识点解析：本段第一句讲，报纸的大字标题有两个作用：吸引你的注意力，告诉

你文章的主要内容。后面又紧接着说，电子邮件的主题行需要起到同样的作用。由

此可判断，D”主题行即标题”应适合做这一段的小标题。

20、[R2]

A、

B、

C、

D、

E、

标准答案：A

知识点解析：本段开头讲，与传统书信相比，电子邮件的优点在于发好几封信和发

一封信花费一样。因此，如果你需要就好儿件事与某人联络，就每一个主题单独写

一封电子邮件，这样你的联系人会在适当的期限内对每封信回复。由此可知，

A“一封电子邮件一个主题”应是本段的主题。

21、[R3]

A、

B、

C、

D、

E、

标准答案：C

知识点解析：本段第一句讲，在电子邮件中应含有你想要收件人如何回应的信息(a

calltoaction),如打一个电话或事后约会等。另外还要提供自己的联系方式等，这

样收件人会更有可能回复你。由此可知，C“明确你想要的回复方式”是本段的主

题。

22、[R4]

A、

B、

C、

D、

E、

标准答案：E

知识点解析：本段讲如果你经常用电子邮件与人联系应该注意的几个问题：及时阅

读并回复别人的邮件、对需要很长时间回复的邮件先发一封稍等邮件、外出时设好

“外出自动回复”代理功能。由此可判断，这都是在讲如何成为一个好联系人，即

Eo

23、[R5]

A、

B、

C、

D、

E、

标准答案：B

知识点解析：本段第一句就点明主题：内部电子邮件(internale-mail)c之后又讲到

利用内部邮件应注意的几个问题，如经常查收、要使用正式的语言、进行拼写检查

等。因此很明显本段的小标题应是B“内部电子邮件”。

ourlackoftechnologicalcapability

C>creatingtechnologywithoutreallyunderstandingtheissues

D、ourrefusaltofacetheconsequencesofthetechnologywecreate

标准答案：C

知识点解析：从第1段可知，作者先后指出：“无比强大的科技很快就将完全改变

我们的生活。这可能会产生危险的后果，尤其是因为我们可能不懂得其背后的基本

科学、“我们借助于未来科技可以从事非常巧妙的事情，而不必理解基本的科学原

理，这是很危险的可见，作者的最大担心是在创造技术的同时没有真正懂得问

题。因此C项为正确答案。

2、Itcanbeinferredfromthetextthattheauthor.

C、Becausemachineswiththatmuchintelligencewouldnotallowit.

D^Becauseevenheroichumanswouldachievenothingfromsuchabattle.

标准答案：C」

知识点解析：从第2段可知，电影《终结者》中唯一不可能实现的是人类会胜出。

假如你在和比自己聪明得多的技术对抗，你可能不会取胜。这两句话的关系是前果

后因。因此C项为正确答案。

4、Themixingofnanotechwithorganismsmay.

B、producecreaturesthatarcunfriendlytohumans

C、upsetourbalanceofnature

D、reducetheworldtostickyglue

B、skeptical

C^provocative

D、alarmist

见，B项为正确答案。

6、Whichoneiscorrectaccordingtothisarticle?

A、Human'sabilityofunderstandingisfasterthannewtechnology.

Thefuturedevelopmentoftheunimaginablescienceisharder.

C>Embcdingtechnologywithcommerceisgoodonlyinfreetraderegimes.

D、Emergingtechnologiesareachallengefbrhuman'sintelligence.

标准答案：D

知识点解析：从第1段和最后一段最后一句话可知，无比强大技术因为人类的理解
