16、，A選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤；B選項(xiàng)不正確，原文并沒(méi)有說(shuō)過(guò)這個(gè)，只是說(shuō)要保持自信；D選項(xiàng)在第一段的第一句話有提到The interview is an important event in the job-hunting process, because the 20 or 30 minutes you spend with the interviewer may determine whether or not you get the particular job you want.（面試在找工作過(guò)程中是很重要的一件事，因?yàn)槟闩c面試官待上的二三十分鐘可能會(huì)決定你是否能得到你想要的工作。）但是這并不是作者認(rèn)為

17、被面試者應(yīng)該銘記的事，因此D不正確。2.事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)題干關(guān)鍵詞定位到第四段Dont say anything bad about your former employers.（不要說(shuō)前老板的壞話。）可以得知如果和前老板相處的不好，也不要說(shuō)他的壞話，因此B選項(xiàng)“不應(yīng)該說(shuō)他的壞話”正確。A選項(xiàng)是在第四段If you have been fired from a job and the interviewer asks about it, be frank in your answer.（如果你被解雇了，面試官問(wèn)起這個(gè)問(wèn)題，你要坦率地回答。）說(shuō)的是如果被解雇了，則要坦率回答，和題干不符合，因此排

You have nothing to lose by continuing a show of confidence, and you may have much to gain.（如果在某個(gè)時(shí)刻你覺(jué)得面試不順利，不要表現(xiàn)出你的沮喪。繼續(xù)表現(xiàn)出自信，你不會(huì)有什么損失，你可能會(huì)有很多收獲。）因此A選項(xiàng)“保持你的信心”正確。B、D雖然原文都

19、有提及，但不是本題的信息點(diǎn)，因此排除；C選項(xiàng)在第六段It may be well, or it may be a test to see how you react to adverse conditions.（它可能是好的，也可能是測(cè)試你對(duì)不利條件的反應(yīng)。）這只是一個(gè)推測(cè)，并且與如何在表現(xiàn)不好時(shí)做出回應(yīng)不相關(guān)，排除。4.事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)題干關(guān)鍵詞定位到最后一段If possible, you should negotiate for salary after you have been offered a job and when you are ready to complete the

20、paperwork.（如果可能的話，你應(yīng)該在得到一份工作之后，在你準(zhǔn)備好去完成相關(guān)文件之后，再去談工資問(wèn)題。）可以看出，作者認(rèn)為最好的談薪水的時(shí)間應(yīng)該是在你已經(jīng)收到了工作邀請(qǐng)之后，因此A選項(xiàng)“當(dāng)你得到這份工作的時(shí)候”正確。B選項(xiàng)未提及，無(wú)關(guān)項(xiàng)排除；C選項(xiàng)在最后一段you should negotiate for salary after you have been offered a job and when you are ready to complete the paperwork.（你應(yīng)該在得到一份工作之后，在你準(zhǔn)備好去完成相關(guān)文件之后，再去談工資問(wèn)題。）原文是說(shuō)“準(zhǔn)備好去完成相關(guān)文件

21、”，而不是完成了文件，因此C選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤，排除；D選項(xiàng)在最后一段Some interviewers may bring up salary early in the interview. At this time, you may indicate that you are more interested in a job where you can prove yourself than a specific salary（有些面試官可能會(huì)在面試一開始就提出薪水問(wèn)題。此時(shí)，你可以暗示與具體的薪水相比你更感興趣的是一份可以證明你自己的工作），從這里得知作者并不支持一開始就直接談薪水，因此D錯(cuò)誤，排

22、除。5.事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。定位到第一段You want to make yourself stand out as a whole person who has personal strengths, is well qualified, and should be considered the right person for the job. （你想讓自己作為一個(gè)完整的人脫穎而出，這個(gè)人有自己的優(yōu)點(diǎn)，很有資格，應(yīng)該被認(rèn)為是這份工作的合適人選。）以及第三段Your goal in this interview is to make sure your good points get across.

24、nt simply an exaggeration it is a total myth. The octopus can indeed be a deadly hunter, but only of its natural prey. Clams, mussels, crabs, lobsters and an occasional sick or unwary fish have reason to be frightened of this multi-armed predator, but a person is much too large to interest even the

25、biggest octopus. Even a giant among octopuses is much smaller than most people imagine. Far from being large enough to engulf （吞下）a submarine, as monster octopuses in movies have been known to do, the largest octopuses, found on the Pacific coast, weigh around 110 pounds and grow to a diameter of no

26、 more than ten feet.The hard, parrot-like beak（嘴）of an octopus is not used for attacking deep-sea divers, but for cutting open crabs and lobsters.

32、章的第一段的句子The octopus can indeed be a deadly hunter, but only of its natural prey.（章魚確實(shí)是致命的獵手，但只是針對(duì)它的自然獵物。）可知文章介紹了章魚和它們的習(xí)性，因此C選項(xiàng)“章魚和它們的行為”符合題意。A選項(xiàng)在第一段第一句The octopuss reputation as a human-killer isnt simply an exaggeration it is a total myth.（章魚作為人類殺手的名聲并不僅僅是夸大其詞這完全是一個(gè)神話。）根據(jù)這個(gè)我們可以知道，章魚并不可怕，因此A選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤；B選項(xiàng)

33、在第一段的第三句but a person is much too large to interest even the biggest octopus（但人太大了，連最大的章魚都不會(huì)感興趣。）這里只是為了證明章魚并不會(huì)襲擊人類，而不是本文的主旨，因此排除；D選項(xiàng)在第一段有提到，但是這也只是一部分內(nèi)容，并不是全文主旨。2.事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。從最后一段的句子But human beings are perfectly safe. Still, people rarely care to go close enough to these careful creatures to get a good lo

34、ok at them.（盡管如此，人們還是很少愿意冒險(xiǎn)接近這些膽小的生物，好好看一看它們。）可以推斷出人們對(duì)于章魚有著莫名的恐懼，因此A選項(xiàng)“人們對(duì)章魚的恐懼是沒(méi)有根據(jù)的”符合題意。B選項(xiàng)在第一段but a person is much too large to interest even the biggest octopus（但人太大了，連最大的章魚都不會(huì)感興趣），這是文章直接說(shuō)的，并不是隱晦表達(dá)出的，因此B選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤；C選項(xiàng)是全文都沒(méi)提及的，排除；D選項(xiàng)原文并沒(méi)有相關(guān)表述，只是在第二段講了章魚的捕食方式，而它們是否惡毒我們不得而知。3.推理判斷題。定位到第一段but a person is

35、 much too large to interest even the biggest octopus（但人太大了，連最大的章魚都不會(huì)感興趣。）通過(guò)這一句話我們知道，章魚并不會(huì)襲擊人類，因?yàn)槿祟悓?duì)于它們來(lái)說(shuō)太大了，因此C選項(xiàng)“章魚從不攻擊人”正確。A選項(xiàng)關(guān)于章魚的捕獵方式在第二段The hard, parrot-like beak of an octopus is not used for attacking deep-sea divers, but for cutting open crabs and lobsters. Indeed, the octopus possesses such

36、 a tiny throat that it cannot swallow large pieces of meat.（章魚堅(jiān)硬的鸚鵡喙不是用來(lái)攻擊深海潛水員的，而是用來(lái)割開螃蟹和龍蝦的。事實(shí)上，章魚的喉嚨非常小，它不能吞下大塊的肉。）可以看出章魚并沒(méi)有把獵物撕扯開，因此A錯(cuò)誤；B選項(xiàng)在第一段Clams, mussels, crabs, lobsters and an occasional sick or unwary fish（蛤蜊、貽貝、螃蟹、龍蝦，還有偶爾生病或不小心的魚），它們只是偶爾捕食生病或不小心的魚類，而不是經(jīng)常，因此B錯(cuò)誤；D選項(xiàng)在第一段Far from being large

37、 enough to engulf a submarine（遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)沒(méi)有大到足以吞沒(méi)一艘潛艇。）因此章魚并不能吞下一艘潛艇，D選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤。4.事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)關(guān)鍵詞定位到第二段The hard, parrot-like beak of an octopus is not used for attacking deep-sea divers, but for cutting open crabs and lobsters（章魚堅(jiān)硬的鸚鵡喙不是用來(lái)攻擊深海潛水員的，而是用來(lái)割開螃蟹和龍蝦的），而螃蟹和龍蝦就是它的食物，因此C選項(xiàng)“剖開獵物”正確，而A選項(xiàng)錯(cuò)誤；B和D均未提及，排除。5.推理判斷題。定位到

38、最后一段最后一句話But human beings are perfectly safe. Still, people rarely care to go close enough to these careful creatures to get a good look at them.（但人類是絕對(duì)安全的。盡管如此，人們還是很少愿意冒險(xiǎn)接近這些膽小的生物，好好看一看它們。）可知對(duì)人來(lái)說(shuō)，章魚是沒(méi)有威脅的；第一段說(shuō)The octopuss reputation as a human-killer isnt simply an exaggeration（章魚作為人類殺手的名聲并不僅僅是夸大其詞

39、），也就是人們認(rèn)為它們很危險(xiǎn)，但是實(shí)際上不是，因此A選項(xiàng)“章魚對(duì)人類并不像許多人認(rèn)為的那樣危險(xiǎn)”正確。B、C和D原文都沒(méi)有進(jìn)行描述，因此排除。5.單選題Because of fathers poor circumstances, my uncle（ ）my education.問(wèn)題1選項(xiàng)A.financesB.maintainsC.suppliesD.affords【答案】A【解析】考查動(dòng)詞辨析。A選項(xiàng)finances“負(fù)擔(dān)經(jīng)費(fèi)，供給經(jīng)費(fèi)”；B選項(xiàng)maintains“維持，保持”；C選項(xiàng)supplies“供應(yīng)，提供”；D選項(xiàng)affords“買得起，提供”。句意：由于父親的貧苦處境，我叔叔（ ）

45、e longer than ever before. Over the next 20 years the global population of those aged 65 or more will almost double, from 600 million to 1.1 billion. The experience of the 20th century, when greater longevity translated into more years in retirement rather than more years at work, has persuaded many

46、 observers that this shift will lead to slower economic growth and “secular stagnation”, while the swelling ranks of pensioners will bust government budgets.But the notion of a sharp division between the working young and the idle old misses a new trend, the growing gap between the skilled and the u

47、nskilled. Employment rates are falling among younger unskilled people, whereas older skilled folk are working longer. The divide is most extreme in America, where well-educated baby-boomers are putting off retirement while many less skilled younger people have dropped out of the workforce.【答案】【參考譯文】

48、世界的老齡人口正在以驚人的速度增長(zhǎng)，并且他們?cè)交钤介L(zhǎng)。在未來(lái)的20年里，全球65歲以上的老年人數(shù)量將會(huì)翻番，從6000萬(wàn)到11億。根據(jù)20世紀(jì)的經(jīng)驗(yàn)來(lái)看，當(dāng)長(zhǎng)壽意味著更長(zhǎng)的退休時(shí)間和更短的工作時(shí)間時(shí)，很多人都會(huì)感覺(jué)到明顯的經(jīng)濟(jì)增速減緩和長(zhǎng)期經(jīng)濟(jì)停滯，同時(shí)越來(lái)越多的養(yǎng)老金申領(lǐng)人口會(huì)導(dǎo)致政府的預(yù)算破產(chǎn)。當(dāng)我們只關(guān)注于工作年輕人與閑散老年人的嚴(yán)重分化現(xiàn)象時(shí)，往往忽略了一個(gè)新的趨勢(shì)，即不同人勞動(dòng)技能之間日益加劇的差異。缺乏技能的年輕人的就業(yè)率在下降，而經(jīng)驗(yàn)豐富的高技術(shù)人才卻工作得越來(lái)越久。在美國(guó)，這樣的分歧最為嚴(yán)重，嬰兒潮時(shí)期出生的、受過(guò)良好教育的人們延遲退休，從而將技能不足的年輕人排擠出勞動(dòng)力市場(chǎng)。

In the following years more and more similar circles were found in a field of wheat or corn. So people cannot help but ask the que

54、stion: What causes the circles?At first people suspected that the circles were a trick. To prove that the circles were a trick, people tried to copy them: they tried to make circles exactly like the ones the farmers had found. They couldnt do it. They couldnt enter a field of grain without leaving t

55、racks, and they couldnt flatten the grain without breaking it. The circles are apparently not a trick.Many people believe that beings from outer space are making the circles. Some think that the beings are trying to communicate with us from far away and that the circles are messages from them. Other

56、s believe that the beings have actually landed on earth and that the circles are marks left by their spaceships. Several times people reported seeing strange flying objects near fields where circles later appeared.Scientists say theyre not sure what causes them. They have suggested several theories.

57、 For example, some scientists say that “microbursts” of wind created the circles. A microburst is a downward rush of cool airthe same downward rush of air that sometimes causes an airplane to crash. Others scientists say that forces within the earth cause the circles to appear. But circles often app

58、ear in forms. It is hard to believe that any natural force could create those forms. And recently farmers have discovered not only circles but also other shapes such as triangles in their fields. Could any natural force created a perfect triangle in a field of grain?In the summer of 1990 some scient

59、ists spent three weeks in the part of England where many circles have appeared. They had all the latest high-tech equipment. This equipmentworth 1.8 million dollarsrecorded nothing. But one night, as the scientists were watching a field, circles formed in the field behind them. These circles are sho
