  • 第3题:

    Zhu Guang,a 25-year-old product tester,is a university graduate,the only child of a pair of factory workers in Shanghai.He works for Lenovo,one of China's leading computer-makers.He earns 4,000 yuan a month after tax and says he feels like a faceless drone at work.He eats at the office canteen and goes home at night to a rented,20-square-metre room in a shared flat,where he plays online games.He does not have a girlfriend or any prospect of finding one."Lack of confidence",he explains when asked why not.Like millions of others,he mockingly calls himself a diaosi.Vividly it is a declaration of F powerlessness in an economy where it is getting harder for the reg-ular guy to succeed.Calling himself by this nickname is a way of crying out,"like Gandhi",says Mr Zhu,It is a quiet form of protest

    25岁的朱广是个产品测试员,他是大学毕业生,上海工人家庭的独子,并在中国最大的电脑制造商之一的联想公司上班。他的税后月薪为4000元,并说自己工作时就像台没人注意的机器。通常,他在公司食堂吃饭,晚上就回到自己在合租公寓里租的20平米大小的房间玩网络游戏。他没有女友,也不想找。“没信心啊”,当被问到为什么不找时,他这样回答。和千百万人一样,他戏称自己是“屌丝”。这个词形象地表达出了这个经济体中那些越来越难获得成功的普通人的无力感。以这个称谓自嘲是一种发出呼声的方式,“就像甘地”,朱广说道,“这是一种无声的抗议。”

  • 第4题:

    Building a house costs quite a lot of money. Suppose you plan to build a house. Your first step will be to find a right piece of land. Your choice will depend on many different things. You will probably try to find a sunny place, with pleasant surroundings near shops and bus stops, not too far from your friends and the place where you work.
    Next you will find a good builder, and together with the builder you will work out a plan. The builder will draw the plan. It will show the number of rooms, their position and size, and other parts, which must be noticed, such as windows, doors, and electric outlets. The builder will work out how much money is needed to build your house. He will work out the cost of the wood, bricks, the glass, and everything else that must be used in building the house. Later on, when he starts to build, this estimate must be corrected and revised. His estimate is based on existing prices, but prices of such things may change, and many other things may happen between the time when he makes the estimate and the time when he builds the house.
    When the builder gives his estimate, you may wish to change your plan. (You may also wish to change your builder, if his estimate is too high! ) You may find that the house you wanted at first costs too much, or that you can spend a little more and add something to your plan. The builder's estimate depends on the plan, but the final plan depends on the builder's estimate.
    When the builder starts to build a house, his estimate will have to be corrected and revised because _______.

    A.it is wrongly worked out by a workman
    B.the future owner of the house thinks the estimate is so high that he cannot afford the building
    C.the prices of building materials and the expenses of labor may be different from the original prices and expenses
    D.estimates are usually mistaken in the beginning

    答案:C
    解析:
    本题属细节考查题。考查的是在盖房的施工中,最初的预算必须更正与修改的原因。短文第二段的倒数一、二句就有相对应的部分;随后,当他开始施工时,此预算必须更改与修正。他的预算的根据是当时的价格,而建筑材料与其他东西的价格在制定预算和开始施工这一阶段很可能会有变化。A项说的是“预算经常被施工者算错”,在短文中找不到依据;B项的“未来的房主认为预算太高他支付不起”在短文中也没有体现,D项的“在开始时预算往往是错的”与A项的错误一致.

  • 第5题:

    资料:Western business visitors are often deadline-driven and unwilling to slow down to the Chinese pace when discussing business. But in China the pace can be fast and slow simultaneously.
    Another different approach to doing business is that in a buying decision Westerners tend to look for clear alternatives, while Easterners may examine ways to combine both option. For example, a Chinese panel may feel that a supplier who claims of best quality with a low price may either raise the price during the contract or fail to implement the contract. They will therefore often prefer to choose a supplier whose price is neither the cheapest nor the most expensive. In addition, a Chinese panel may avoid awarding each supplier more than one contract, in order to minimise dependence on a single supplier. Such an approach may make a Westerner think that a Chinese negotiator is being illogical, evasive or devious, when he believes he is being quite straightforward.
    What's more, both Chinese and foreign companies will often attribute their business success to having good guanxi. The objective of developing close relationships is to build what the Chinese call guanxi (pronounced gwan shee). which are essentially social or business connections based on mutual interest and benefit. In a centralised and bureaucratic state, reliance on personal contacts is often seen as the only way to get things done. And in a place like China where the legal system is still relatively weak, the need to rely on guanxi remains strong.
    Both China and foreign companies will often attribute their business success to having good guanxi. But the obligations of guanxi are very real. In the wrong place, at an inappropriate time, with unsuitable people, the obligations can become a trap it is hard to escape.

    What is the author’s attitude towards “Guanxi”?

    A.Unbiased
    B.Slightly critical.
    C.Fully supportive.
    D.Paradoxical.

    答案:B
    解析:
    本题考查的是态度理解。
    【关键词】author’s attitude; towards “guanxi”
    【主题句】第3自然段 The objective of developing close relationships is to build what the Chinese call guanxi (pronounced gwan shee), which are essentially social or business connections based on mutual interest and benefit. In a centralized and bureaucratic state, reliance on personal contacts is often seen as the only way to get thing done. And in a place like China where the legal system is still relatively weak, the need to rely on guanxi remains strong. 发展亲密关系的目的是建立中国人所谓的“关系”,即一种基于互惠互利的社会或商业联系。在一个中央集权和官僚主义的国家,依赖个人联系通常被认为是完成事情的唯一途径。而在像中国这样法律体系相对薄弱的国家,对依靠关系的需求仍然强劲。
    第4自然段Both China and foreign companies will often attribute their business success to having good guanxi. But the obligations of guanxi are very real. In the wrong place, at an inappropriate time, with unsuitable people, the obligations can become a trap it is hard to escape. “中国公司和外国公司往往都将商业上的成功归功于拥有良好的关系。但关系的代价是非常真实的。在错误的地方,在不合适的时间,不合适的人,代价可能成为一个难以逃脱的陷阱。”
    【解析】题目意为“作者对于‘关系’的态度是怎样的?” 选项A意为“中立的”;选项B意为“略带批判的”;选项C意为“完全支持的”;选项D意为“矛盾的”。根据主题句可知,作者对于“关系”进行了轻微的批判,故选项B正确。

    The phrase "draw a plan" in this passage means _______

    A.making a picture of a building or a room
    B.making a plan
    C.working out a plan
    D.pulling a picture out of a room

    答案:A
    解析:
    解答该小题的重点是要准确理解“draw a plan”这个短语中的关键词plan。plan在本短文中反复出现了八次,第一次出现以动词形式出现,其他七次都是名词。作名词用时其常见用法有二:计划,方案;平面图,纸张。plan在与draw连用时,就表明:画一张建筑物的平面图。B项和C项都是把plan理解为“计划”或“方案”了,而D项则理解成“把一张图画从屋里找出来”,这是无稽之谈。由此答案非A莫属。

    Earthquake Insurance

    1.Earthquake insurance is a form of homeowners' insurance which deals with damage caused by earthquakes.In regions where earthquakes are especially common,homeowners may be required to carry earthquake insurance,so that in the event of an earthquake,people rely less on government disaster funds and more on their own insurance policies.As a general rule,earthquake insurance is not a part of standard insurance policies,and it must be purchased separately.
    2.Earthquakes can cause a variety of damage to a home,ranging from complete destruction to damage which causes the building to become structurally unsound.Indirect damage caused by neigh-boring collapses of structures and freeways can also occur,as can more bizarre forms of earthquake damage,like winding up with a car in the living room or a sinkhole in the back yard.Fires and flooding are also common problems in the wake of earthquakes.
    3.When homeowners purchase earthquake insurance,they may be protected against both direct damage,such as a structural collapse after an earthquake,and indirect damage,like a fire caused by broken gas lines.More commonly,the insurance only covers structural damage caused directly by the earthquake.The insurance may pay for a complete replacement of the structure,or a remodel, depending on the type of insurance and the nature of the damage.Some policies also cover damaged property like cars,and they may provide living allowances so that the residents of the home can temporarily relocate for the duration of the repairs.
    4.This type of homeowners' insurance is prone to adverse selection,in which only people in high risk areas purchase the insurance.The problem with adverse selection for insurance companies is that it decreases the pool of customers,making potential payouts very expensive.For this reason, earthquake insurance often has a high deductible,and it can he very expensive.
    5.Recognizing the need for earthquake insurance,some governments have provided subsidies for earthquake insurance,to reduce the stress on insurance companies.Insurance companies also adjust their risk pools carefully,and there may be stringent requirements for a homeowner to purchase earthquake insurance.For example,a home may need to be retrofitted for earthquake safety, reducing the amount of damage which will be incurred in a quake.For low-income home owners, this can be very difficult,as it drives the cost of earthquake insurance out of reach,which can in turn make it difficult to get home loans,as many banks in earthquake-prone areas insist on earth-quake insurance as a condition for a loan.

    Paragraph 3______
    A:What's the Main Problem of Earthquake Insurance?
    B:What Damages Can an Earthquake Cause?
    C:How to Buy an Earthquake Insurance?
    D:What Is an Earthquake Insurance?
    E:Where Does Earthquake Happen Frequently?
    F: What Does an Earthquake Insurance Contain?

    答案:F
    解析:
    第一段开宗明义,介绍地震保险是……实际上就是对地震保险下定义,很明显,就是要告诉读者什么是地震保险。所以选择D。
    第二段第一句:Earthquakes can cause a variety of damage to a home…意思是地震会给一个家庭带来各种破坏……显然是在讲地震带来的危害。B选项What damages can a earthquake cause(地震会带来什么危害)与该段表述一致。
    该段第一句:When homeowners purchase earthquake insurance, they may be protected against both direct damage,such as a structural collapse after an earthquake,and indirect damage, like a fire caused by broken gas lines.当人们购买了地震保险之后,他们就可以规避在地震中受到的直接损失和间接损失。很显然,该段说的是地震保险的主要保障内容。因而F 选项(地震保险主要包括哪些内容)与该段意思一致。
    通过第五段第二句The problem with adverse selection for insurance companies is that it decreases the pool of customers, making potential payouts very expensive可以得出,该段主要是在讲地震保险运行中的一些问题,所以A项意思与原文表达一致。
    通过文中第一段第二句In regions where earthquakes are especially common,homeowners may be required to carry earthquake insurance,so that in the event of an earth-quake, people rely less on government disaster funds and more on their own insurance policies可以得出答案为E选项(insurance policies)。
    文中第二段第二句:Indirect damage caused by neighboring collapses of structures and freeways can also occur.也会发生邻居房屋或高速公路倒塌对自家房屋造成的间接破坏。可以得出选项A比较合适。
    文中第三段第三句:The insurance may pay for a complete replacement of the structure, or a remodel, depending on the type of insurance and the nature of the damage.可以从文中找到出处,所以选项D正确。
    通过文中第五段第二句Insurance companies also adjust their risk pools carefully…可以推断出选项B。
