分析 本文寫了在萬圣節(jié)這一天，孩子們愉快地做了很多有趣的事情，Basil 和 Bob 親手制作了南瓜燈，收獲了很多糖果．

解答 11．C 動詞辨析題．在萬圣節(jié)這一天，孩子們在街上嬉戲玩耍，有的像巫師、白雪公主、有的像電影的角色，蝙蝠俠、蜘蛛俠等．可知，孩子們是穿著不同的衣服，主語children與wear之間是邏輯上的主謂關系，所以用現(xiàn)在分詞作狀語．
12．B 名詞辨析題．根據(jù)11題可知答案．從這些films--Batman，Spider man，Superman，可以看出孩子們扮演的是電影中的角色．character意為"人物，角色"
13．A 動詞辨析題．根據(jù)習俗，大人們早已準備好糖果了．be prepared 為固定短語，意為"準備好"．
14．C 動詞辨析題．在萬圣節(jié)，要制作南瓜燈，所以Basil 和 Bob 找到了一個南瓜，并做了南瓜燈．found為find過去時．
15．D 名詞辨析題．前句描寫了他們用刀子等工具把南瓜做成了燈籠的形狀，符合題意．lanterns為"燈籠"．
16．D 介詞辨析題．they put small candles inside．根據(jù)常識可知，蠟燭是放在南瓜燈里面的．
17．A 動詞辨析題．由前文的介紹可知，在萬圣節(jié)孩子們要穿上不同的衣服，所以dress up 固定短語"喬裝打扮"．
18．B 副詞辨析題．前句告訴我們Basil 和 Bob 在一戶人家要了很多的糖果，應該是非常高興的離開．happily副詞，修飾動詞短語 went away．
19．C 形容詞辨析題．到了另一家，碰到了A white"ghost"with an ugly face，顯然，他們是被嚇到了．a(chǎn)fraid形容詞，"害怕的"．
20．B  動詞辨析題．There were more than 100 candies這句告訴我們Basil 和 Bob 是數(shù)了收獲的糖果．count動詞"數(shù)"符合．

點評 本篇是介紹類完形填空．話題叫貼合學生，難度不大．但對學生要求掌握一點基本的西方節(jié)日的常識．在平時要積累相關的文化方面知識．

5．Want to attract and keep top talent？Here's a suggestion：Make a flexible work schedule part of the deal．
A survey this summer of 1，215 U．S．managers and employees across a variety of industries，by EY （formerly Ernst & Young），found those aged 18to 32rank flexibility among the perks （特殊待遇） they want most，with 33% saying they wouldn't work anywhere that didn't offer it．But it seems those aged 33to 48value flextime even more：38% of them consider it non-negotiable，with men who said so，at 40%，slightly outnumbering women （37%）．
"Companies first started offering flexible schedules，in the late 80s and the 90s，as a way to recruit （招募） and keep talented women，but it's gone way beyond that now，"observes Karyn Twaronite，an EY partner who came up through the tax side of the business．
Noting that both men and women，in all age groups，ranked flextime （彈性工作制） tops among non-cash perks，Twaronite adds，"That result mirrors exactly what we're seeing here at EY．"The accounting and consulting giant，No.57on Fortune's Best Companies to Work For，has had thousands of employees working flexible schedules for years-including，since 2004，six weeks'of paid leave for new dads．
"Flextime may have started out as a women's issue，but it's changed into something that people of both sexes have come to expect，"he adds．"I think it's partly because of the large number of two-career households now，where people have to adapt to two demanding professional schedules instead of just one．"
The EY survey suggests that，in the next decade or so，the opportunity for a life outside the office will become an even bigger draw than it already is．Most of those surveyed still work a set schedule，the report notes，but"respondents expect a shift in the coming years to more flexible hours，as 62% currently work standard office hours and only 50% expect to do so in five to ten years．"
That doesn't surprise Twaronite．"Work is changing，"she observes．"The technology to connect anywhere and anytime means that people are expected to be on call 24hours a day，especially in global companies that operate across different time zones．The other side of that is that employers are adapting to people's lives outside of work-because they have to be．"

（Note：Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS．）
78．What is the main finding of the survey？Both men and women ranked flextime tops among non-cash perks
79．Flextime was originally aimed attalented women．
80．The result of the survey is caused by the fact thatthere are a large number oft wo-career households now/both sexes in a family have to work professionally now．
81．What makes flextime possible according to Twaronite？The technology to connect anywhere and anytime．．
