Question

【題目】閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容完成句子。

Recently a TV programme Secret Boss caught my eye. The programme invites company directors (董事) to spend a week working in their own companies — as a new employee (雇員). And no one knows who the new person really is.

At the start of the programme, we met Amy Lowen, director of the big—name restaurant group, Caters. She would work at one of Caters’ restaurants in London. After just a few hours of training, Amy was serving customers. However, anyone who has done the same job knows that a busy restaurant isn’t an easy place to work at. Just minutes after starting on tables, Amy dropped a bowl of food, which made her very sad.

The programme is not just about finding problems, though. Amy said she was surprised at how hard—working some employees were. They worked long hours, but always stayed cheerful to even their most “difficult” customers.

One day Amy was very pleased when a customer left her a 20 tip (小費(fèi)). “If I could get five or six more of these a day,” she said, “this wouldn’t be a badly paid job.” But minutes later, she felt surprised when the restaurant’s manager told her to give the money to the company. The company didn’t allow employees to keep tips over 10. It was a rule.

It isn’t difficult to guess how Secret Boss ends. Amy told others at the restaurant that she was the director of Caters. And then she told them she had decided to allow employees to keep all of their tips.

【1】In the programme Secret Boss, company directors are invited to ________ for a week.

【2】Amy had only ________ of training, and then she started work at a restaurant.

【3】On the first day, Amy felt very sad when she________.

【4】Amy got a 20 tip, but her manager asked her to give it ________.

【5】At the end of Secret Boss, Amy said she would allow employees to ________.

【解析】

本文介紹了一檔叫《秘密老板》的電視節(jié)目。短文以艾米為例介紹了她在自家飯館打工的經(jīng)歷。

【1】句意：在“秘密老板”計劃中，公司董事被邀請在自己的公司工作一周。

根據(jù)“The programme invites company directors (董事) to spend a week working in their own companies.”該計劃邀請公司董事在自己的公司工作一周。此題是被動語態(tài)。改后的被動語態(tài)是：Company directors are invited to work in their own companies for a week. 公司董事被邀請在自己的公司工作一周。故填work in their own companies。

【2】句意：艾米只接受了幾個小時的培訓(xùn)，然后開始在一家餐館工作。

根據(jù)“After just a few hours of training, Amy was serving customers.”經(jīng)過幾個小時的培訓(xùn)，艾米正在為顧客服務(wù)�？芍�，艾米只接受了幾個小時的培訓(xùn)，然后開始在一家餐館工作。故填a few hours。

【3】句意：第一天，艾米掉了一碗食物，感到非常難過。

根據(jù)“Amy dropped a bowl of food, which made her very sad.”艾米就掉了一碗食物，這讓她很傷心�？芍�，當(dāng)艾米掉了一碗食物，感到非常難過。此題是由when引導(dǎo)的時間狀語從句。故填dropped a bowl of food。

【4】句意：艾米得到了20英鎊的小費(fèi)，但她的經(jīng)理要她把小費(fèi)給公司。

根據(jù)“But minutes later, she felt surprised when the restaurant’s manager told her to give the money to the company.”但幾分鐘后，當(dāng)餐廳經(jīng)理讓她把錢給公司時，她感到很驚訝�？芍�，她的經(jīng)理要她把小費(fèi)給公司。故填to the company。

【5】句意：在《秘密老板》的結(jié)尾，艾米說她將允許員工保留所有的小費(fèi)。

根據(jù)“And then she told them she had decided to allow employees to keep all of their tips.”然后她告訴他們，她決定讓員工保留所有小費(fèi)。可知，艾米說她將允許員工保留所有的小費(fèi)。故填keep all of their tips。
