【解析】

試題分析:這是一段了解被雇者對于自己工作要求的對話,比如是否喜歡團(tuán)隊(duì)一起工作,是否喜歡穿制服,是否喜歡固定工作時(shí)間,以及薪水如何發(fā)放等等問題。

1.上文所說:你喜歡團(tuán)體合作還是單獨(dú)工作?以及下文的回答:我擅長單獨(dú)工作可知應(yīng)該用alone 副詞,單獨(dú)地。

2.固定短語的使用。擅長做某事be good at doing,因此用working.

3.動(dòng)詞的過去分詞。讓某事被做get sth.done,因此用 do 的過去分詞done,表示被動(dòng)。

4.連詞和上下文的理解能力。根據(jù)上下文:我擅長一個(gè)人做事情,假如我遇到一個(gè)我喜歡做的事情,那么我會(huì)很快地做完。但是,如果我和一個(gè)里所有人都想要做好一件事情的團(tuán)隊(duì)合作時(shí),我想這樣的團(tuán)隊(duì)也是很有意思的。因此兩句話之間表示轉(zhuǎn)折,且后面還有個(gè)逗號,應(yīng)該用however,連詞,但是。

5.冠詞和上下文的理解能力。句意:如果我和一個(gè)里所有人都想要做好一件事情的團(tuán)隊(duì)合作時(shí),我想這樣的團(tuán)隊(duì)也是很有意思的。the team 這樣的團(tuán)隊(duì)(一個(gè)里所有人都想要做好一件事情的團(tuán)隊(duì))。

6.6】考查連詞和上下文的理解能力。句意:你喜歡穿工作制服還是隨意穿?我想,如果你穿制服,你將會(huì)受到尊重的。根據(jù)上下文用if這個(gè)連詞,表示假設(shè)。

7.7】考察it和上下文的理解能力。句意:關(guān)于工作時(shí)間怎么樣呢?你喜歡固定的工作時(shí)間嗎?我不喜歡,我覺得做一個(gè)固定時(shí)間的工作很難。這里考察用it做形式主語,代替后面的to do a set time job。

8.8】考察動(dòng)詞時(shí)態(tài)的運(yùn)用。根據(jù)上文的”Last year”可知本句話用一般過去時(shí),所以用produced。

9.9】考察情態(tài)動(dòng)詞的用法。根據(jù)上文句意:每天我得六點(diǎn)起床,當(dāng)我到家時(shí),都已經(jīng)快八點(diǎn)了。所以可知應(yīng)該用must,表示“你肯定很累吧”。must 肯定,一定,表示對事情肯定的猜測。

10.10】考察形容詞的比較級。根據(jù)后文than being paid by the hour可知用比較級better。句意:我認(rèn)為按月發(fā)放薪水要比按時(shí)發(fā)放更好。

考點(diǎn): 對話類文章。

“It’s always difficult to predict,” said FIFA marketing director Thierry Weil. “But I truly believe that it will be more similar to what happened in Germany than in South Africa in 2010.” According to FIFA, the 2006 World Cup was attended by more than 3.3 million fans. Almost two million tickets were sold to the general public in South Africa, although the number of applications during the first ticketing phase was significantly lower.

All applications made before 10th October 2013 will enter a random selection draw if there are not enough tickets available to fulfill all requests. The sales of the leftover tickets will begin on 5th November on a first-come, first-served basis. Another phase will begin on 8th December after the draw is made. The tournament begins on 12th June, with Brazil playing the opener in Sao Paulo.

A study on the price of World Cup 2014 looked at the ticket prices and the cost of travelling to Brazil and found that our English fans face hotel costs of between£46 and£797 a night, while packages range from£2,999 to£14,999.

1.How much should a Brazilian student pay for the opening match?

A.£15 B.£58 C.£112 D.£632

2.From the passage we know that Thierry Weil_______.

A.feels proud of what they achieved in South Africa 2010

B.feels worried about the sales of the tickets for Brazil 2014

C.holds the belief that Brazil 2014 will be the greatest world cup

D.believes that more fans will attend Brazil 2014 than South Africa 2010

3.What will FIFA do if there are not enough tickets available for requests before Oct.10, 2013?

A.They will sell the spare tickets to the applicants.

B.They will sell on a first-come, first-served basis.

C.They will choose the applicants based on a random selection draw.

Did you know that the position you choose to sleep in says something about what kind of person you are?

A study of 1,000 British people has been done by Chris, a British professor and director of the Sleep Assessment and Advisory Service in the UK. It looked at the six most common sleeping positions and which personalities tend to match them. Have a look.

1. Fetus (胎兒) position – This is the most common sleeping position. About 41 percent of the participants said they sleep in this position. These sleepers may appear to be strong but they are usually sensitive (敏感的) and shy. The more they curl (蜷縮) up, the more worried they are.

4. Soldier position – These sleepers lie on their backs with their arms down and close to the body. They are usually reserved and quiet.

5. Freefall position – People who sleep in this position are outgoing (外向的) but feel a lack of control in their lives. This is the least comfortable position.

They will be here in a minute, surely. I’ll just stare at my shoes a little while longer to pass the time. Wish I’d brought a book. Hang on, though, what if I’ve got the wrong day? The wrong place? Have the clocks gone back? No, damn it, I’m off home. Whoever I’m waiting for clearly lives in a different time zone from me.

I am always 10 minutes early, so if you’re 10 minutes late, I’ve been foot-tapping for 20 minutes. I know it’s not fair to hold the first 10 against you, but I just can’t help myself. I never wait more than 20 minutes beyond the meeting time we decided upon, not for anyone, ever.

OK, that’s not strictly true. I have, on occasion, hung around anxiously and heart-brokenly for up to an hour, but the bitter anger that follows is never a pretty sight. If you’ve made me wait that long, you will wish you hadn’t bothered turning up at all.

How come some people are always late and some are always on time? If I can manage to be punctual, why can’t you? Because I left a hot cup of coffee at home while you sat down to roll another cigarette. Because I spilled jam on my pants and quickly wiped it off whereas you took time to change your whole outfit. Because I switched off midway through a TV series, but you had to ride out the end, didn’t you? And don’t even think about blaming the traffic. How do you think I got here? By flying carpet? Only carelessness or arrogance (傲慢) can explain a habit of lateness.

Some people are always late because they can’t make realistic calculations about how long it takes to do things. There are 60 seconds in a minute and 60 minutes in an hour. Just deal with it. Painful as it may be, you have to accept that, as you’ve agreed to meet at eight and it’s now a quarter to, you don’t have time to phone your girlfriend.

Much worse, though, are those with big egos (自我). Being late is just rude. Being late on purpose really means that you hate the person you are meeting.

Of course, there are some perfectly lovely latecomers out there. I just never wait long enough to find out.

1.Which of the following words best describes how the author feels in the first paragraph?

A. Anxious. B. Curious.

C. Thankful. D. Joyful.

2.What does the author think contributes to people always being late?

a. Their big egos.

b. Traffic jams.

c. Their carelessness.

d. Being picky when choosing clothes.

e. Their realistic calculations of how long it takes to do things.

A. a, b B. a, c C. b, d, e D. c, d, e

3.We can learn from the article that the author ___________.

A. is tolerant of people being late

B. has missed lots of meetings

C. has trouble getting along with others

D. has a strong preference for good timekeeping

4.According to the author, people should ____________.

A. be patient when waiting for a latecomer

B. keep in mind that being late is rude and selfish

C. always arrive 10 minutes early for an appointment

D. ask people around them to remind them about an appointment
