分析 本文是一篇說(shuō)明文，主要介紹了五種非比尋常的工作，讓讀者大開眼界．

解答 36．E．根據(jù)"That would be too normal compared to the jobs here"可知馬上要介紹不尋常的工作，而E選項(xiàng)"Here are some unusual jobs…"正好說(shuō)明了要介紹的不尋常的工作，故選E．
37．A．根據(jù)下列"Pet food tester""Chick gender examiner"等小標(biāo)題為職業(yè)名稱，以及小標(biāo)題下的"Is begging a job""beggars in Dubai"可知本段在介紹在迪拜乞討的工作，故選A．
38．C．根據(jù)本段在介紹寵物食物測(cè)試者的工作，而上下文介紹不同尋常工作的各段最后一句均為介紹此工作的報(bào)酬，故選C．
39．F．根據(jù)"Chicken gender examiner"可知本段為介紹小雞性別鑒定者的工作，故選F．而G選項(xiàng)中的問(wèn)句并不能介紹此工作，并且鑒定性別并不是就可以提供健康小雞．
40．D．根據(jù)"Mistress fighter"的小標(biāo)題及前句"These fighters do not really fight against mistresses who break up couples"說(shuō)明下句要介紹他們是如何工作的，故選D．

點(diǎn)評(píng) 選詞填空題一定要根據(jù)上下文來(lái)判斷空句應(yīng)該填補(bǔ)什么內(nèi)容，根據(jù)前后句的關(guān)鍵詞來(lái)尋找選項(xiàng)中關(guān)鍵詞相符的答案，根據(jù)文章內(nèi)部邏輯關(guān)系來(lái)填空，需要學(xué)生通讀全篇，了解各空句在文章中或段落中的作用．
