2018年考研英語(yǔ)閱讀理解模擬練習(xí)題（3）

The majority of successful senior managers do not closely follow the classical rational model of first clarifying goals, assessing the problem, formulating options, estimating likelihoods of success, making a decision, and only then taking action to implement the decision.Rather, in their day-by-day tactical maneuvers, these senior executives rely on what is vaguely termed intuition to manage a network of interrelated problems that require them to deal with ambiguity, inconsistency, novelty, and surprise;and to integrate action into the process of thinking.Generations of writers on management have recognized that some practicing managers rely heavily on intuition.In general, however, such writers display a poor grasp of what intuition is.Some see it as the opposite of rationality;others view it as an excuse for capriciousness.Isenberg's recent research on the cognitive processes of senior managers reveals that managers' intuition is neither of these.Rather, senior managers use intuition in at least five distinct ways.First, they intuitively sense when a problem exists.Second, managers rely on intuition to perform well-learned behavior patterns rapidly.This intuition is not arbitrary or irrational, but is based on years of painstaking practice and hands-on experience that build skills.A third function of intuition is to synthesize isolated bits of data and practice into an integrated picture, often in an Aha!experience.Fourth, some managers use intuition as a check on the results of more rational analysis.Most senior executives are familiar with the formal decision analysis models and tools, and those who use such systematic methods for reaching decisions are occasionally leery of solutions suggested by these methods which run counter to their sense of the correct course of action.Finally, managers can use intuition to bypass in-depth analysis and move rapidly to engender a plausible solution.Used in this way, intuition is an almost instantaneous cognitive process in which a manager recognizes familiar patterns.One of the implications of the intuitive style of executive management is that thinking is inseparable from acting.Since managers often know what is right before they can analyze and explain it, they frequently act first and explain later.Analysis is inextricably tied to action in thinking/acting cycles, in which managers develop thoughts about their companies and organizations not by analyzing a problematic situation and then acting, but by acting and analyzing in close concert.Given the great uncertainty of many of the management issues that they face, senior managers often instigate a course of action simply to learn more about an issue.They then use the results of the action to develop a more complete understanding of the issue.One implication of thinking/acting cycles is that action is often part of defining the problem, not just of implementing the solution.1.According to the text, senior managers use intuition in all of the following ways EXCEPT to

[A] Speed up of the creation of a solution to a problem.[B] Identify a problem.[C] Bring together disparate facts.[D] Stipulate clear goals.2.The text suggests which of the following about the writers on management mentioned in line 1, paragraph 2?

[A] They have criticized managers for not following the classical rational model of decision analysis.[B] They have not based their analyses on a sufficiently large sample of actual managers.[C] They have relied in drawing their conclusions on what managers say rather than on what managers do.[D] They have misunderstood how managers use intuition in making business decisions.3.It can be inferred from the text that which of the following would most probably be one major difference in behavior between Manager X, who uses intuition to reach decisions, and Manager Y, who uses only formal decision analysis?

[A] Manager X analyzes first and then acts;Manager Y does not.[B] Manager X checks possible solutions to a problem by systematic analysis;Manager Y does not.[C] Manager X takes action in order to arrive at the solution to a problem;Manager Y does not.[D] Manager Y draws on years of hands-on experience in creating a solution to a problem;Manager X does not.4.The text provides support for which of the following statements?

[A] Managers who rely on intuition are more successful than those who rely on formal decision analysis.[B] Managers cannot justify their intuitive decisions.[C] Managers'' intuition works contrary to their rational and analytical Sagemnet.Comskills.[D] Intuition enables managers to employ their practical experience more efficiently.5.Which of the following best describes the organization of the first paragraph of the text?

[A] An assertion is made and a specific supporting example is given.[B] A conventional model is dismissed and an alternative introduced.[C] The results of recent research are introduced and summarized.[D] Two opposing points of view are presented and evaluated.[答案與考點(diǎn)解析]

[參考譯文] 大部分成功的高層管理人員并不拘泥于傳統(tǒng)的推理模式,即：首先確定目標(biāo),然后估定問(wèn)題,擺出各種可能性,估計(jì)成功率,再做決定,最后才付諸行動(dòng)去實(shí)施。相反,在這些人的日常決策過(guò)程中,他們靠一種定義模糊的直覺(jué)應(yīng)付大量相關(guān)問(wèn)題,這些問(wèn)題使他們必須在一堆含糊不清,自相矛盾,奇特?zé)o比或者令人驚異的事物中做抉擇,而且在考慮過(guò)程中就要有相應(yīng)的行動(dòng)。

管理學(xué)作品的寫作者早就注意到了實(shí)踐當(dāng)中一些管理者對(duì)直覺(jué)依賴很強(qiáng)。不過(guò)總的來(lái)說(shuō),這些寫作者未曾表達(dá)出什么叫做直覺(jué)。有些人將其視作理性的對(duì)立面,還有人認(rèn)為它是反復(fù)無(wú)常的(做法、性格)的一個(gè)借口。

Isenberg最近對(duì)高層管理人員認(rèn)知過(guò)程的研究揭示了管理者的直覺(jué)并不是上述的任何一種情況。高層管理者是在五個(gè)不同的方面使用直覺(jué)。首先,他們直覺(jué)地感到有問(wèn)題存在。第二,依靠直覺(jué),管理者們能很快表現(xiàn)出有教養(yǎng)的行為方式。這種直覺(jué)并不是任意,非理性的,而是在多年實(shí)踐磨練,和親身體驗(yàn)培養(yǎng)出的技能的基礎(chǔ)上形成。第三,直覺(jué)把一些零散的數(shù)據(jù)和實(shí)際情況組合為一個(gè)完整畫面,這經(jīng)常表現(xiàn)為一聲Aha式的體驗(yàn)。第四,有些管理者也應(yīng)用直覺(jué)來(lái)檢驗(yàn)更理性化分析的結(jié)果。大部分高層管理人員熟知傳統(tǒng)的決策分析模式和工具,那些使用這些正式的系統(tǒng)化方法做出決定的人經(jīng)常會(huì)對(duì)一種情況保持警惕,那就是有時(shí)此方法得出的結(jié)論和他們對(duì)正確行為的感覺(jué)不符。最后,管理者可通過(guò)直覺(jué)繞開(kāi)深?yuàn)W的分析而快速產(chǎn)生一個(gè)可能的解決辦法。這么使用時(shí),直覺(jué)幾乎是一個(gè)瞬間的思維過(guò)程,這一模式為管理者所熟悉。

這些管理者用直覺(jué)方式的一個(gè)特點(diǎn)是思考和行動(dòng)不能分開(kāi)。由于(在這種方式中)管理者在分析和解釋問(wèn)題之前就已經(jīng)明白應(yīng)該怎么去做,他們經(jīng)常是先行動(dòng),后解釋。在思考?D行動(dòng)的循環(huán)中,分析是必不可少的。在這其中管理者們不是靠分析他們面對(duì)的形勢(shì)來(lái)思考其公司、組織的情況,而是行動(dòng)和分析在高度一致地進(jìn)行。

由于管理者們經(jīng)常面對(duì)許多不確定的情況,他們鼓勵(lì)采取各種行動(dòng)來(lái)對(duì)問(wèn)題作一番深入了解。他們藉此對(duì)問(wèn)題做出更深的體會(huì)。這種思考行為循環(huán)的一個(gè)特點(diǎn)即：行動(dòng)是確定問(wèn)題的一部分,而不只是解決問(wèn)題的步驟。

Text 1

It’s true that high-school coding classes aren’t essential for learning computer science in college.Students without experience can catch up after a few introductory courses, said Tom Cortina, the assistant dean at Carnegie Mellon’s School of Computer Science.However, Cortina said, early exposure is beneficial.When younger kids learn computer science, they learn that it’s not just a confusing, endless string of letters and numbers — but a tool to build apps, or create artwork, or test hypotheses.It’s not as hard for them to transform their thought processes as it is for older students.Breaking down problems into bite-sized chunks and using code to solve them becomes normal.Giving more children this training could increase the number of people interested in the field and help fill the jobs gap, Cortina said.Students also benefit from learning something about coding before they get to college, where introductory computer-science classes are packed to the brim, which can drive the less-experienced or-determined students away.The Flatiron School, where people pay to learn programming, started as one of the many coding bootcamps that’s become popular for adults looking for a career change.The high-schoolers get the same curriculum, but “we try to gear lessons toward things they’re interested in,” said Victoria Friedman, an instructor.For instance, one of the apps the students are developing suggests movies based on your mood.The students in the Flatiron class probably won’t drop out of high school and build the next Facebook.Programming languages have a quick turnover, so the “Ruby on Rails” language they learned may not even be relevant by the time they enter the job market.But the skills they learn — how to think logically through a problem and

organize the results — apply to any coding language, said Deborah Seehorn, an education consultant for the state of North Carolina.Indeed, the Flatiron students might not go into IT at all.But creating a future army of coders is not the sole purpose of the classes.These kids are going to be surrounded by computers — in their pockets, in their offices, in their homes — for the rest of their lives.The younger they learn how computers think, how to coax the machine into producing what they want — the earlier they learn that they have the power to do that — the better.21.Cortina holds that early exposure to computer science makes it easier to____.A.complete future job training

B.remodel the way of thinking

C.formulate logical hypotheses

D.perfect artwork production

22.In delivering lessons for high-schoolers, Flatiron has considered their____.A.experience

B.academic backgrounds

C.career prospects

D.interest

23.Deborah Seehorn believes that the skills learned at Flatiron will____.可銳教育官網(wǎng)http://004km.cn

A.help students learn other computer languages B.have to be upgraded when new technologies come C.need improving when students look for jobs D.enable students to make big quick money 24.According to the last paragraph, Flatiron students are expected to____.A.compete with a future army of programmers B.stay longer in the information technology industry C.become better prepared for the digitalized world D.bring forth innovative computer technologies 25.The word “coax”(Line4, Para.6)is closest in meaning to____.A.challenge B.persuade C.frighten D.misguide Text 1 答案 B remodel the way of thinking.Reshape 重塑

remold 重塑

Mold 名詞-模型 模子

動(dòng)詞-形成塑造

解析：此題是文中人物觀點(diǎn)題。根據(jù)Cortina定位到第二段前三句。Cortina認(rèn)為盡早接觸計(jì)算機(jī)科學(xué)是有益的。第三句It’s not as hard for them to transform their thought processes as it is for older students.譯為在轉(zhuǎn)變思維程序方面小孩不像年齡較大的學(xué)生一樣困難，即B remodel the way of thinking 轉(zhuǎn)變思維方式即為同義替換。答案 D interest

解析：此題是細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)關(guān)鍵詞Friedman定位到第四段第二句but之后引號(hào)里面內(nèi)容“我們?cè)噲D讓課程符合學(xué)生興趣”，故而D interest為正確答案。答案 A help students learn other computer languages

解析：文中人物觀點(diǎn)題。題干問(wèn)的是Deborah Seehorn認(rèn)為在Flatiron這里所學(xué)到的技能將能怎么樣，據(jù)此定位到第五段But處，和題干基本一致，該句指出“But the skills they learn?appl to any coding language”，意思是他們學(xué)到的技能可以應(yīng)用于任何編碼語(yǔ)言。對(duì)比答案選項(xiàng)，A選項(xiàng)的意思是“幫助學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)其他的計(jì)算機(jī)語(yǔ)言”屬于原文定位處的同義替換。答案 C become better prepared for the digitalized world

解析：細(xì)節(jié)題。題干指出：根據(jù)最后一段，F(xiàn)latiron的學(xué)生被期望去干什么。據(jù)此定位到最后一段的These kids are going to be處，是題干的同義復(fù)現(xiàn)。定位句“These kids are?be surrounded by computers for the rest of their lives.The younger they learn how computers think??.the better.”，意思是學(xué)生們?cè)皆鐚W(xué)越好。C選項(xiàng)“為數(shù)字化的未來(lái)做更好的準(zhǔn)備”是同義概述。答案 B persuade

解析：詞義句意題，結(jié)合上下文來(lái)解題。根據(jù)coax此單詞，定位到最后一段最后一句可銳教育官網(wǎng)http://004km.cn

“how to coax the machine into producing what they want”，考察固定搭配“persuade?into?”。A選項(xiàng)挑戰(zhàn)，B選項(xiàng)勸服，C選項(xiàng)使恐慌，D選項(xiàng)誤導(dǎo)。考生做題時(shí)一定要注意結(jié)合上下文來(lái)推測(cè)生詞的詞義，這是命題人的出題 規(guī)律。

Text 2

France, which prides itself as the global innovator of fashion, has decided its fashion industry has lost an absolute right to define physical beauty for women.Its lawmakers gave preliminary approval last week to a law that would make it a crime to employ ultra-thin models on runways.The parliament also agreed to ban websites that “incite excessive thinness” by promoting extreme dieting.Such measures have a couple of uplifting motives.They suggest beauty should not be defined by looks that end up impinging on health.That’s a start.And the ban on ultra-thin models seems to go beyond protecting models from starving themselves to death-as some have done.It tells the fashion industry that it must take responsibility for the signal it sends women, especially teenage girls, about the social tape-measure they must use to determine their individual worth.The bans, if fully enforced, would suggest to women(and many men)that they should not let others be arbiters of their beauty.And perhaps faintly, they hint that people should look to intangible qualities like character and intellect rather than dieting their way to size zero or wasp-waist physiques.The French measures, however, rely too much on severe punishment to change a culture that still regards beauty as skin-deep — and bone-showing.Under the law, using a fashion model that does not meet a government-defined index of body mass could result in a $85,000 fine and six months in prison.The fashion industry knows it has an inherent problem in focusing on material adornment and idealized body types.In Denmark, the United States, and a few other countries, it is trying to set voluntary standards for models and fashion images that rely more on peer pressure for enforcement.In contrast to France’s actions, Denmark’s fashion industry agreed last month on rules and sanctions regarding the age, health, and other characteristics of models.The newly revised Danish Fashion Ethical Charter clearly states: “We are aware of and take responsibility for the impact the fashion industry has on body ideals, especially on young people.’ The charter’s main tool of enforcement is to deny access for designers and modeling agencies to Copenhagen Fashion Week, which is run by the Danish Fashion Institute.But in general it relies on a name-and-shame method of compliance.Relying on ethical persuasion rather than law to address the misuse of body ideals may be the best step.Even better would be to help elevate notions of beauty beyond the material standards of a particular industry.26.According to the first paragraph, what would happen in France?

[A] Physical beauty would be redefined.[B] New runways would be constructed.[C] Websites about dieting would thrive.[D] The fashion industry would decline.可銳教育官網(wǎng)http://004km.cn

【答案】 [A] Physical beauty would be redefined

【解析】 推斷題。根據(jù)France定位到文章前兩段，第一段講法國(guó)決定時(shí)裝業(yè)失去了定義（define）形體美（physical beauty）的絕對(duì)權(quán)力。法國(guó)的立法者通過(guò)了一項(xiàng)法律，雇用超瘦的模特屬于犯罪，議會(huì)也禁止網(wǎng)站通過(guò)推崇極端節(jié)食“鼓動(dòng)過(guò)度瘦弱”。第二段第二句提到“They suggest beauty should not be defined by looks that end up impinging on health.That’s a start.他們建議美麗不應(yīng)該以傷害身體健康為代價(jià)的外表來(lái)界定。”由此可知，法國(guó)通過(guò)立法手段來(lái)改變法國(guó)時(shí)裝業(yè)模特超瘦的現(xiàn)狀，即[A]項(xiàng)的“形體美將會(huì)被重新定義”，是對(duì)原文內(nèi)容的合理推斷。[B]項(xiàng)“將會(huì)建造新的舞臺(tái)”，[C]項(xiàng)“有關(guān)節(jié)食的網(wǎng)站將會(huì)興起”，[D]項(xiàng)“時(shí)裝業(yè)將會(huì)衰退”，均不能從文中推測(cè)出來(lái)，屬于“無(wú)中生有”。

27.The phrase “impinging on”(Line 2, Para 2)is closest in meaning to____

[A] heightening the value of.[B] indicating the state of.[C] losing faith in.[D] doing harm to.【答案】 [D] doing harm to

【解析】猜詞題。定位到第二段第二句“They suggest beauty should not be defined by looks that end up impinging on health.他們建議美麗不應(yīng)該以

身體健康為代價(jià)的外表來(lái)界定?！眎mpinging on后面的賓語(yǔ)為“health”，即對(duì)健康的某種影響。根據(jù)第二段第三句“對(duì)超瘦模特的禁令似乎不僅僅是在防止模特挨餓致死——正如曾有人這么做過(guò)的”，可見(jiàn)法國(guó)目前的對(duì)美麗的定義導(dǎo)致了有人為了保持身材，挨餓致死，因此推測(cè)出這一短語(yǔ)在這里的意思為“侵犯，傷害”，[D]項(xiàng)“對(duì)??有害”正確。[A]項(xiàng)“增強(qiáng)了??的價(jià)值”，[B]項(xiàng)“反映了??的狀態(tài)”，[C]項(xiàng)“對(duì)??失去信心”均不符合句意。

28.Which of the following is true of the fashion industry?

[A] The French measures have already failed.[B] New standards are being set in Denmark.[C] Model are no longer under peer pressure.[D] Its inherent problems are getting worse.【答案】 [B] New Standards are being set in Denmark

【解析】細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)第五段第二句話“In Denmark,...it is trying to set voluntary standards for models and fashion...在丹麥，它正嘗試為模特設(shè)定自愿的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)??”，可知[B]項(xiàng)“在丹麥新的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)正在被設(shè)定”是對(duì)原文的同義替換。[A]項(xiàng)“法國(guó)的措施失敗了”；[C]項(xiàng)“不再有來(lái)自同行執(zhí)法的壓力”，文章第五段第二句后半句提到“images that rely more on peer pressure for enforcement”，屬于“正反混淆”；[D]項(xiàng)“它固有的問(wèn)題變得更嚴(yán)重了”，文中第五段只提及時(shí)裝業(yè)有固有的問(wèn)題，并未提及“變得更嚴(yán)重”，屬于“無(wú)中生有”。

29.A designer is most likely to be rejected by CFW for ____

[A] setting a high age threshold for models.[B] caring too much about models’ character.[C] showing little concern for health factors.可銳教育官網(wǎng)http://004km.cn

[D] pursuing perfect physical conditions.【答案】 [C] showing little concern for health factors

【解析】推斷題。題設(shè)為“一個(gè)設(shè)計(jì)師很可能因?yàn)槭裁丛虮籆FW拒絕”，根據(jù)關(guān)鍵詞CFW可回到文中定位至倒數(shù)第二段，該段提到丹麥的時(shí)尚界就有關(guān)模特的年齡、健康及其他特性的內(nèi)容達(dá)成一致意見(jiàn)，且一項(xiàng)新法案也明確規(guī)定，他們已經(jīng)意識(shí)到時(shí)尚界對(duì)于人們尤其是年輕人的身體健康所帶來(lái)的影響，并且應(yīng)該對(duì)此承擔(dān)責(zé)任，這一法規(guī)的執(zhí)行方式就是拒絕一些設(shè)計(jì)師和模特經(jīng)紀(jì)機(jī)構(gòu)參加哥本哈根時(shí)裝周（CFW）。因此[C]項(xiàng)的“不關(guān)心健康因素”符合題意，為正確答案。[D]項(xiàng)“追求完美的身體狀況”，[B]項(xiàng)的“過(guò)多關(guān)注模特的性格”，[A]項(xiàng)“設(shè)定了一個(gè)模特高齡門檻”，均不符合題意。

30.Which of the following may be the best title of the text?

[A] The Great Threats to the Fashion Industry

[B] Just Another Round of Struggle for Beauty

[C] A Dilemma for the Starving Models in France

[D] A Challenge to the Fashion Industry’s Body Ideals

【答案】 [D] A challenge to the Fashion Industry’s Body Ideals 【解析】主旨題。本文從首段就開(kāi)始闡述法國(guó)通過(guò)立法禁止雇用超瘦的模特，時(shí)裝業(yè)已經(jīng)失去了定義女性身體之美的絕對(duì)權(quán)力，且議會(huì)也禁止網(wǎng)站通過(guò)宣傳過(guò)度節(jié)食來(lái)強(qiáng)調(diào)過(guò)度消瘦。第二段繼續(xù)說(shuō)明美麗不能只看外表，更不能以犧牲健康為代價(jià)，時(shí)裝業(yè)應(yīng)該為傳遞給女性的不良信息負(fù)責(zé)。第三段說(shuō)明女性不該讓他人來(lái)評(píng)判自己的美麗。第四段講法國(guó)的措施更多的是依靠嚴(yán)厲的懲罰。最后三段提到了丹麥與法國(guó)截然不同的措施?？v觀全文，文章主要在講各個(gè)國(guó)家對(duì)解決目前模特超瘦的現(xiàn)狀的措施，因此[D]項(xiàng)的“對(duì)時(shí)裝業(yè)身體典范的挑戰(zhàn)”是對(duì)原文的“高度概括”。

Text 3

Biologists estimate that as many as 2 million lesser prairie chickens---a kind of bird living on stretching grasslands—once lent red to the often gray landscape of the midwestern and southwestern United States.But just some 22,000 birds remain today, occupying about 16% of the species’ historic range.The crash was a major reason the U.S Fish and Wildlife Service（USFWS）decided to formally list the bird as threatened.“The lesser prairie chicken is in a desperate situation,” said USFWS Director Daniel Ashe.Some environmentalists, however, were disappointed.They had pushed the agency to designate the bird as “endangered,” a status that gives federal officials greater regulatory power to crack down on threats.But Ashe and others argued that the“threatened” tag gave the federal government flexibility to try out new, potentially less confrontational conservations approaches.In particular, they called for forging closer collaborations with western state governments, which are often uneasy with federal action and with the private landowners who control an estimated 95% of the prairie chicken’s habitat.Under the plan, for example, the agency said it would not prosecute landowner or businesses that unintentionally kill, harm, or disturb the bird, as long as they had signed a range—wide management plan to restore prairie chicken habitat.Negotiated by USFWS and the states, the plan requires individuals and businesses that damage habitat as part of their operations to pay into a fund to replace every acre destroyed with 2 new acres of suitable habitat.The fund will 可銳教育官網(wǎng)http://004km.cn

also be used to compensate landowners who set aside habitat, USFWS also set an interim goal of restoring prairie chicken populations to an annual average of 67,000 birds over the next 10 years.And it gives the Western Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies(WAFWA), a coalition of state agencies, the job of monitoring progress.Overall, the idea is to let “states” remain in the driver’s seat for managing the species，” Ashe said.Not everyone buys the win-win rhetoric Some Congress members are trying to block the plan, and at least a dozen industry groups, four states, and three environmental groups are challenging it in federal court Not surprisingly, doesn’t go far enough “The federal government is giving responsibility for managing the bird to the same industries that are pushing it to extinction,” says biologist Jay Lininger.·31.The major reason for listing the lesser prairie as threatened is____

[A]its drastically decreased population

[B]the underestimate of the grassland acreage

[C]a desperate appeal from some biologists

[D]the insistence of private landowners

32.The “threatened” tag disappointed some environmentalists in that it_____

[A]was a give-in to governmental pressure

[B]would involve fewer agencies in action

[C]granted less federal regulatory power

[D]went against conservation policies

33.It can be learned from Paragraph3 that unintentional harm-doers will not be prosecuted if they_____

[A]agree to pay a sum for compensation

[B]volunteer to set up an equally big habitat

[C]offer to support the WAFWA monitoring job

[D]promise to raise funds for USFWS operations

34.According to Ashe，the leading role in managing the species in______

[A]the federal government

[B]the wildlife agencies

[C]the landowners

[D]the states

35.Jay Lininger would most likely support_______

[A]industry groups

[B]the win-win rhetoric

[C]environmental groups

[D]the plan under challenge

答案 A its drastically decreased population

解析：此題是原因細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)關(guān)鍵詞定位到第一段But前后關(guān)于lesser prairie chickens 數(shù)量2million和22,000的強(qiáng)烈對(duì)比。此外第二段第二句“the lesser prairie chicken is in a desperate situation”都可以得知A its drastically decreased population 數(shù)量的急劇下降為正確答案。

答案 C granted less federal regulatory powers 可銳教育官網(wǎng)http://004km.cn

Grant 動(dòng)詞-同意允許；授予賦予

名詞-補(bǔ)貼

解析：此題是原因細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)關(guān)鍵詞定位到第二段第四句，They had ?, a state that gives federal officials greater regulatory power.而B(niǎo)ut 之后是截然相反的事實(shí)，即政府授予了更少的管理權(quán)。故而C granted less federal regulatory powers為正確答案。

答案 A agree to pay a sum for compensation賠償補(bǔ)償 薪酬

解析：推斷題。題干問(wèn)的是從第三段推出來(lái)：無(wú)意傷害的那些人是不會(huì)被檢舉的如果怎么樣。根據(jù)題干定位到第三段首句“it would not prosecute?.as long as ?.”，題干中問(wèn)的if即原文的as long as的同意替換，原文as long as的意思是：只要他們簽署了計(jì)劃。下一句說(shuō)道，該計(jì)劃要求個(gè)體和企業(yè)去支付基金。對(duì)應(yīng)選項(xiàng)A選項(xiàng)“贊同支付賠償”屬于同義替換。

答案 D the states

解析：此題是細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)關(guān)鍵詞定位到第三段最后一句the idea is to let the“states”remain in the driver’s seat for managing the species, Ashe said.其中in the driver’s seat對(duì)應(yīng)題干中的the leading role, 故而D states為正確答案。

答案 C environmental groups群體團(tuán)體

解析：文中人物觀點(diǎn)題。題干問(wèn)的是Jay Lininger最可能支持誰(shuí)，大寫人名定位到末段最后一句。最后一句提到：生物學(xué)家Jay Lininger說(shuō)道聯(lián)邦政府要把責(zé)任推給導(dǎo)致鳥(niǎo)類滅絕的企業(yè)，顯然是對(duì)政府和企業(yè)的反對(duì)。再往前看一句，指出：企業(yè)團(tuán)體和政府部門觀點(diǎn)一致，環(huán)境學(xué)家與其觀點(diǎn)恰巧一致。因此，Jay Lininger最支持環(huán)境團(tuán)體的觀點(diǎn)了。

Text 3

“There is one and only one social responsibility of businesses,” wrote Milton Friedman, a Nobel prize-winning economist, “That is, to use its resources and engage in activities designed to increase its profits.” But even if you accept Firedman’s premise and regard corporate social responsibility(CSR)policies as a waste of shareholders’ money, things may not be absolutely clear-cut.New research suggests that CSR may create monetary value for companies-at least when they are prosecuted for corruption.The largest firms in America and Britain together spend more than $ 15 billion a year on CSR, according to an estimate by EPG, a consulting firm.This could add value to their businesses in three ways.First, consumers may take CSR spending as a “signal” that a company’s products are of high quality.Second, customers may be willing to buy a company’s products as an indirect way to donate to the good causes it helps.And third, through a more diffuse “halo effect,” whereby its good deeds earn it greater consideration from consumers and others.Previous studies on CSR have had trouble differentiating these effects because consumers can be affected by all three.A recent study attempts to separate them by looking at bribery prosecutions under America’s Foreign Corrupt Practices Act(FCPA).It argues that since prosecutors do not consume a company’s products as part of their investigations, they could be influenced only by the halo effect.The study found that, among prosecuted firms, those with the most comprehensive CSR programmes tended to get more lenient penalties.Their analysis ruled out the possibility that it was firms’ political influence, rather than their CSR stand, that accounted for the leniency: 可銳教育官網(wǎng)http://004km.cn

Companies that contributed more to political campaigns did not receive lower fines.In all, the study concludes that whereas prosecutors should only evaluate a case based on its merits, they do seem to be influenced by a company’s record in CSR.“We estimate that either eliminating a substantial labour-rights concern, such as child labour or increasing corpora giving by about 20% results in fines that generally are 40% lower than the typical punishment for briding foreign officials,” says one researcher.Researchers admit that their study does not answer the question of how much businesses ought to spend on CSR.Nor does it reveal how much companies are banking on the halo effect rather than the other possible benefits, when they decide their do-gooding policies.But at least they have demonstrated that when companies get into trouble with the law, evidence of good character can win them a less costly punishment.36.The author views Milton Friedman’s statement about CSR with

[A] tolerance

[B] skepticism

[C] uncertainty

[D] approval

【答案】[B]

【解析】觀點(diǎn)態(tài)度題。題干問(wèn)的是作者對(duì)有關(guān)CSR方面Milton Friedman的說(shuō)法是什么態(tài)度。根據(jù)信號(hào)詞Milton Friedman這個(gè)人定位到首段。注意題干問(wèn)的是作者的看法，因此定位到第二句but轉(zhuǎn)折處。But后句子的主干為：things may not be absolutely clear-cut，可見(jiàn)作者對(duì)Milton Friedman所說(shuō)的內(nèi)容并不完全贊同，故選擇答案[B]項(xiàng)懷疑。[A]項(xiàng)容忍，[C]項(xiàng)不確定，[D]項(xiàng)贊同，這三項(xiàng)均不是作者的態(tài)度，故排除。

37.According to Paragraph 2, CSR helps a company by

[A] winning trust from consumers.[B] guarding it against malpractices.[C] protecting it from being defamed.[D] raising the quality of its products.【答案】[A]

【解析】細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)題干中的出處提示“Paragraph 2”定位到第二段第二句：This could add value to their businesses in three ways.This指的是CSR，根據(jù)接下來(lái)講到的三點(diǎn)：第一點(diǎn)是，消費(fèi)者認(rèn)為這樣的公司產(chǎn)品質(zhì)量比較高；第二點(diǎn)是，顧客更愿意購(gòu)買這樣公司的產(chǎn)品；第三點(diǎn)是，通過(guò)一個(gè)更為廣泛的“暈輪效應(yīng)”，消費(fèi)者會(huì)更多地考慮這樣的公司的產(chǎn)品。可知，有CSR支出的公司會(huì)吸引更多的消費(fèi)者，[A]項(xiàng)“贏得消費(fèi)者的信任”，是對(duì)整個(gè)三點(diǎn)的總結(jié)，故為正確答案。[B]項(xiàng) 防止公司里的玩忽職守，[C]項(xiàng) 保護(hù)公司免受毀謗，[D]項(xiàng) 提升公司產(chǎn)品的質(zhì)量，均在原文中未提及，故排除。

38.The expression “more lenient’(Line 2, Para.4)is closest in meaning to

[A] more effective

[B] less controversial

[C] less severe 可銳教育官網(wǎng)http://004km.cn

[D] more lasting

【答案】[C]

【解析】猜詞題。根據(jù)題干中的出處提示“l(fā)ine 2, para.4”及信號(hào)詞“more lenient”定位到原文中的第四段第一句：The study found that...penalties。明顯此句中more lenient 修飾 penalties(懲罰)，要想推測(cè)出more lenient的含義，需要知道被起訴的公司中，那些有著全面的CSR項(xiàng)目的公司和penalties 之間的聯(lián)系。本項(xiàng)在第五段的最后一句最容易被看出來(lái)，第五段最后一句提到那些在CSR有較大投資的公司，當(dāng)被起訴有賄賂行為時(shí)，所受到的罰金要比通常的罰金低40%左右，可知這樣的公司會(huì)受到較輕的懲罰，故more lenient是較輕，即較不嚴(yán)重的意思，故選[C]項(xiàng)。[A]項(xiàng) 更有效的，[B]項(xiàng) 較少有爭(zhēng)議的，[D]項(xiàng) 更持久的，這三項(xiàng)均不是more lenient的意思，故排除。

39.When prosecutors evaluate a case, a company’s CSR record

[A] has an impact on their decision.[B] comes across as reliable evidence.[C] increases the chance of being penalized.[D] constitutes part of the investigation.【答案】[A]

【解析】細(xì)節(jié)題。題干問(wèn)的是 CSR record 與 prosecutors evaluate a case 的關(guān)系，根據(jù)題干中的信號(hào)詞prosecutors evaluate a case可回文中定位到第五段第一句：In all...in CSR。這里的be influenced與[A]項(xiàng) has an impact 對(duì)應(yīng)，即一個(gè)公司的CSR會(huì)影響檢察官對(duì)其案件的評(píng)估，故選[A]項(xiàng)。[B]項(xiàng)被檢察官認(rèn)為是可靠的證據(jù)，[C]項(xiàng) 增加了被懲罰的機(jī)會(huì)，[D]項(xiàng) 構(gòu)成了調(diào)查的一部分，這三項(xiàng)均在原文中沒(méi)有提及，故排除。

40.Which of the following is true of CSR, according to the last paragraph?

[A] Its negative effects on businesses are often overlooked.[B] The necessary amount of companies’ spending on it is unknown.[C] Companies’ financial capacity for it has been overestimated.[D] It has brought much benefit to the banking industry.【答案】[B]

【解析】判斷題題干問(wèn)的是根據(jù)最后一段，有關(guān)CSR的論述哪個(gè)是對(duì)的。定位到原文最后一段，根據(jù)其內(nèi)容可知“研究人員承認(rèn)到其研究沒(méi)有回答如下問(wèn)題：公司應(yīng)該在CSR方面花費(fèi)多少錢”。[B]項(xiàng)的意思是“公司在CSR方面的花費(fèi)是未知的”，屬于原文的同義替換，故正確。[A]項(xiàng) CSR對(duì)公司的負(fù)面影響經(jīng)常被忽視，[C]項(xiàng) 公司對(duì)CSR的經(jīng)濟(jì)承擔(dān)力被過(guò)高估計(jì)了，[D]項(xiàng) CSR給銀行業(yè)帶來(lái)了很多好處，這三項(xiàng)在文中均為提及，故排除。

Educators are seriously concerned about the high rate of dropouts among the doctor of philosophy candidates and the consequent loss of talent to a nation in need of Ph.D.s.Some have placed the dropouts loss as high as 50 percent.The extent of the loss was，however，largely a matter of expert guessing.Last week a well-rounded study was published.It was published.It was based on 22，000 questionnaires sent to former graduate students who were enrolled in 24 universities and it seemed to show many past fears to be groundless.The dropouts rate was found to be 31 per cent，and in most cases the dropouts，while not completing the Ph.D.requirement，went on to productive work.They are not only doing well financially，but，according to the report，are not far below the income levels of those who went on to complete their doctorates.Discussing the study last week，Dr.Tucker said the project was initiated ‘because of the concern frequently expressed by graduate faculties and administrators that some of the individuals who dropped out of Ph.D.programs were capable of competing the requirement for the degree.Attrition at the Ph.D.level is also thought to be a waste of precious faculty time and a drain on university resources already being used to capacity.Some people expressed the opinion that the shortage of highly trained specialists and college teachers could be reduced by persuading the dropouts to return to graduate schools to complete the Ph.D.’

“The results of our research” Dr.Tucker concluded，“did not support these opinions.”

1.Lack of motivation was the principal reason for dropping out.2.Most dropouts went as far in their doctoral program as was consistent with their levels of ability or their specialities.3.Most dropouts are now engaged in work consistent with their education and motivation.Nearly 75 per cent of the dropouts said there was no academic reason for their decision，but those who mentioned academic reason cited failure to pass the qualifying examination，uncompleted research and failure to pass language exams.Among the single most important personal reasons identified by dropouts for non-completion of their Ph.D.program，lack of finances was marked by 19 per cent.As an indication of how well the dropouts were doing，a chart showed 2% in humanities were receiving $ 20，000 and more annually while none of the Ph.D.‘s with that background reached this figure.The Ph.D.’s shone in the $ 7，500 to $ 15，000 bracket with 78% at that level against 50% for the dropouts.This may also be an indication of the fact that top salaries in the academic fields，where Ph.D.‘s tend to rise to the highest salaries，are still lagging behind other fields.凱程考研，為學(xué)員服務(wù)，為學(xué)生引路！

As to the possibility of getting dropouts back on campus，the outlook was glum.The main condition which would have to prevail for at least 25 % of the dropouts who might consider returning to graduate school would be to guarantee that they would retain their present level of income and in some cases their present job.1.The author states that many educators feel that

[A] steps should be taken to get the dropouts back to campus.[B] the dropouts should return to a lower quality school to continue their study.[C] the Ph.D.holder is generally a better adjusted person than the dropout.[D] The high dropouts rate is largely attributable to the lack of stimulation on the part of faculty members.2.Research has shown that

[A] Dropouts are substantially below Ph.D.‘s in financial attainment.[B] the incentive factor is a minor one in regard to pursuing Ph.D.studies.[C] The Ph.D.candidate is likely to change his field of specialization if he drops out.[D] about one-third of those who start Ph.D.work do not complete the work to earn the degree.3.Meeting foreign language requirements for the Ph.D.[A] is the most frequent reason for dropping out.[B] is more difficult for the science candidate than for the humanities candidate.[C] is an essential part of many Ph.D.programs.[D] does not vary in difficulty among universities.4.After reading the article，one would refrain from concluding that

[A] optimism reigns in regard to getting Ph.D.dropouts to return to their pursuit of the degree.[B] a Ph.D.dropout，by and large，does not have what it takes to learn the degree.[C] colleges and universities employ a substantial number of Ph.D.dropouts.[D] Ph.D.‘s are not earning what they deserve in nonacademic positions.5.It can be inferred that the high rate of dropouts lies in

[A] salary for Ph.D.too low.[B] academic requirement too high.[C] salary for dropouts too high.[D] 1000 positions.答案詳解

four years after she arrived from Honduras，Martha，20，graduated from Fairfax High School in Los Angeles.She managed decent grades while working 36 hours a week at a Kentucky Fried Chicken.Her sister，Marlin，22，attends a local community college and will soon be a certified nurse assistant.The brothers are a different story.Oscar，17，was expelled two years ago from Fairfax for carrying a knife and later dropped out of a different school.The youngest，Jonathan，15，is now in a juvenile boot camp after running into trouble with the law.“The boys get sidetracked more，” says the kids' mother，Suyapa Landaverde.“The girls are more confident.”

This is no aberration.Immigrant girls consistently outperform boys，according to the preliminary findings of a just-completed，five-year study of immigrant children——the largest of its kind，including Latino，Chinese and Haitian kids——by Marcelo and Carola Suarez-Orozco of the Harvard Graduate School of Education.Though that trend holds for U.S.-born kids as well，the reasons for the discrepancy among immigrants are different.The study found that immigrant girls are more adept at straddling cultures than boys.“The girls are able to retain some of the protective features of [their native] culture” because they're kept closer to the hearth，says Marcelo Suarez-Orozco，“while they maximize their acquisition of skills in the new culture” by helping their parents navigate it.Consider the kids' experiences in school.The study found that boys face more peer pressure to adopt American youth culture——the dress，the slang，the disdain for education.They're disciplined more often and，as a result，develop more adversarial relationships with teachers——and the wider society.They may also face more debilitating prejudices.One teacher interviewed for the study said that the “cultural awareness training” she received as part of her continuing education included depictions of Latino boys as “aggressive” and “really macho” and of the girls as “pure sweetness.”

Gender shapes immigrant kids' experiences outside school as well.Often hailing from traditional cultures，the girls face greater domestic obligations.They also frequently act as “cultural ambassadors，” translating for parents and mediating between them and the outside world，says Carola Suarez-Orozco.An unintended consequence：“The girls get foisted into a responsible role more than the boys do.” Take Christina Im，18，a junior at Fairfax who arrived from South Korea four years ago.She ranks ninth in a class of 400 students and still finds time to fix dinner for the family and work on Saturdays at her mother's clothing shop.Her brother? “He plays computer games，” says Im.The Harvard study bears a cautionary note： If large numbers of immigrant boys continue to be alienated academically——and to be clear，plenty perform phenomenally——they risk sinking irretrievably into an economic underclass.Oscar Herrera，Martha's dropout brother，may be realizing that.“I'm thinking of returning to school，” he recently told his mother.He ought to look to his sisters for guidance.1.In the opening paragraph，the author introduces his topic by

[A]posing a contrast

[B]justifying an assumption

[C]making a comparison

[D]explaining a phenomenon

[簡(jiǎn)析] 本句話是一個(gè)并列句，其主干“Martha graduated from Fairfax High School in Los Angeles.She managed decent grades?”。four years after she arrived from Honduras和20是插入語(yǔ);while引導(dǎo)的斷語(yǔ)作狀語(yǔ)，表示讓步。

2.“The girls are able to retain some of the protective features of [their native] culture” because they're kept closer to the hearth，says Marcelo Suarez-Orozco，“while they maximize their acquisition of skills in the new culture” by helping their parents navigate it.[簡(jiǎn)析]本句話的主干是“The girls are able to retain some of the protective features?”。Because引導(dǎo)的是原因莊宇從句;says Marcelo Suarez-Orozco是插入語(yǔ);while 引導(dǎo)的是時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句，其中的by引導(dǎo)的短語(yǔ)作狀語(yǔ)，其中的it指的是new culture.3.One teacher interviewed for the study said that the “cultural awareness training” she received as part of her continuing education included depictions of Latino boys as “aggressive” and “really macho” and of the girls as “pure sweetness.”

[簡(jiǎn)析]本句話的主干是“One teacher said that?”。interviewed for the study作定語(yǔ)修飾teacher;that 引導(dǎo)的是賓語(yǔ)從句，其中的she received as part of her continuing education是一個(gè)省略了引導(dǎo)詞的定語(yǔ)從句，修飾cultural awareness training.4.The Harvard study bears a cautionary note： If large numbers of immigrant boys continue to be alienated academically——and to be clear，plenty perform phenomenally——they risk sinking irretrievably into an economic underclass.[簡(jiǎn)析]本句話的主干是“The Harvard study bears a cautionary note?”。冒號(hào)后面的句子是在解釋前面的句子;if 引導(dǎo)的是條件狀語(yǔ)從句;破折號(hào)里面的內(nèi)容是在進(jìn)一步說(shuō)明if 引導(dǎo)的從句。

第四篇：2012考研英語(yǔ)閱讀理解

2012考研英語(yǔ)閱讀理解：讀外刊擴(kuò)大詞匯量

2011年10月24日 11:38來(lái)源：萬(wàn)學(xué)海文

英語(yǔ)二閱讀理解A部分題型為多項(xiàng)選擇題，總共有4篇文章，總長(zhǎng)度為1500詞左右，要求考生閱讀文章并回答每篇文章后面的問(wèn)題。每篇文章后設(shè)有5個(gè)問(wèn)題，共20題，每小題2分，總計(jì)40分。對(duì)于中國(guó)的英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)者說(shuō)，不管是英語(yǔ)四、六級(jí)，專

四、專八考試，還是考研、考博考試，閱讀始終是一項(xiàng)最為重要的技能，所占的分?jǐn)?shù)比例大，“得閱讀者得天下”，閱讀能力并不僅僅體現(xiàn)在閱讀理解一項(xiàng)當(dāng)中，很大程度上，閱讀理解能力是綜合素質(zhì)的體現(xiàn)，閱讀能力也和英語(yǔ)知識(shí)運(yùn)用、新題型、寫作等題型相互關(guān)聯(lián)，這樣題型的解決需要通過(guò)閱讀獲取相關(guān)的信息，如果閱讀能力不好，這些題型的做題質(zhì)量會(huì)受到大大地影響。

依據(jù)最新的大綱，萬(wàn)學(xué)海文(微博)英語(yǔ)考研輔導(dǎo)老師們對(duì)閱讀A部分做了一個(gè)詳細(xì)地分析，通過(guò)和考研英語(yǔ)一閱讀理解A部分的對(duì)比，我們可以獲知以下的信息，英語(yǔ)二閱讀量減小，英語(yǔ)一是1600詞，英語(yǔ)二是1500，而且沒(méi)有說(shuō)生詞量不超過(guò)總共的3%，考查生詞的可能性降到最低，大綱中并沒(méi)有提到超綱詞匯，這給了考生一個(gè)定心丸，即不必?fù)?dān)心超綱詞匯。且英語(yǔ)二明確規(guī)定了考察的體裁和題材。題材是經(jīng)濟(jì)、管理、社會(huì)、文化、科普。這方面的題材與專業(yè)碩士的特點(diǎn)休戚相關(guān)，且英語(yǔ)一中的八大閱讀能力的要求減為6條。少了“理解文中的概念性含義”和“區(qū)分論點(diǎn)和論據(jù)”這兩個(gè)難度較大的要求，“進(jìn)行有關(guān)的判斷、推理和引申”去掉了引申，而除去的以上兩點(diǎn)對(duì)閱讀有非常高的要求。英語(yǔ)二閱讀部分所要掌握的六大能力是：1，理解文章的要義，2，理解文中的具體信息，3，理解作者的意圖、觀點(diǎn)或態(tài)度，4，進(jìn)行有關(guān)的判斷、推理和引申，5，根據(jù)上下文推測(cè)生詞的詞義，6，理解文章的總體結(jié)構(gòu)以及上下文之間的關(guān)系。

綜上所述，英語(yǔ)二對(duì)閱讀能力的考查大為降低了，明確規(guī)定了所要考查的范圍，考生在復(fù)習(xí)的時(shí)候，可以有的放矢，對(duì)所考查的題型進(jìn)行精心復(fù)習(xí)。2012年在考題的難度上和題型的設(shè)計(jì)上相比2011年很有可能沒(méi)有大的改變，這是一個(gè)可喜的消息，還有，萬(wàn)學(xué)海文英語(yǔ)考研輔導(dǎo)老師們建議2012年的考生在復(fù)習(xí)閱讀題型時(shí)，可以讀一些外刊，因?yàn)閾?jù)我們的統(tǒng)計(jì)，很多閱讀來(lái)源于外刊，比如，經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)人，時(shí)代周刊，紐約時(shí)報(bào)，讀這樣的文章不但可以使我們擴(kuò)充詞匯量，了解有關(guān)的題材，而且還可以獲取背景知識(shí)，藉此，在了解了相關(guān)知識(shí)后，然后輔以適當(dāng)?shù)慕忸}技巧，這樣在答題的時(shí)候一定會(huì)游刃有余。

萬(wàn)學(xué)海文建議考生在復(fù)習(xí)的時(shí)候，應(yīng)該定期做題，勤于思考，總結(jié)方法，除此外，還要夯實(shí)基礎(chǔ)，平時(shí)在做題的過(guò)程中，把篇章中一些好的句子(特別是長(zhǎng)難句)、短語(yǔ)、以及一些高頻?？荚~匯抄錄下來(lái)，日積月累，做題的正確率定會(huì)提高，得高分的可能性就會(huì)增大，考取理想院校就會(huì)
