题目内容

20．____ in her most beautiful skirt，the girl tried to make herself ____ at the party．（　　）

	A．	Dressed； noticed		B．	Dressing； noticed
	C．	Dressed； noticing		D．	Dressing； noticing

分析穿着最漂亮的裙子，这位女孩努力让自己在聚会上被人注意．

解答答案：A句中dress与主语the girl构成动宾关系，即dress sb给某人穿衣服，可以知道dress要用过去分词形式；notice作make的宾语补足语，与herself构成动宾关系，即make sb done让某人被怎样，要用过去分词形式．故选A．

点评过去分词是非谓语动词的一种，用法很灵活，分为简单式done（表示与谓语同时或几乎同时发生的动作）；完成式having been done（表示先于谓语的动作）．学习时，要把握其用法特征：表示被动和完成．同时还要注意区分现在分词和不定式．

5．If your in-box is currently reporting unread messages in the hundreds or thousands，you might have a hard time believing the news：e-mail is on the decline．
At first thought，that might seem to be the case．The incoming generation，after all，doesn't do e-mail．Oh，they might have an account．They use it only as we would use a fax machine：as a means to communicate with old-school folks like their parents or to fulfill the sign-up requirements of Web sites．They rarely check it，though．
Today's instant electronic memos-such as texting and Facebook and Twitter messages-are more direct，more concentrated，more efficient．They go without the salutation （称呼语） and the signoff （签收）； we already know the"to"and"from．"Many corporations are moving to messaging networks for exactly that reason：more signal，less noise and less time．This trend is further evidence that store-and-forward systems such as e-mail and voicemail are outdated．Instead of my leaving you a lengthy message that you pick up later，I can now send you an easily-read message that you can read-and respond to-on the go．
The coming of the mobile era is responsible for the decline of e-mail．Instant written messages bring great convince to people．They can deal with them at about any time：before a movie，in a taxi，waiting for lunch．And because these messages are very brief，they're suitable for smart phone typing．
Does this mean e-mail is on its way to the dustbin of digital history？Not necessarily．E-mail still has certain advantages．On the other hand，tweets and texts feel ephemeral-you read them，then they're gone，into an endless string，e-mail still feels like something you have and that you can file，search and return to later．It's easy to imagine that it will continue to feel more appropriate for formal communications：agreements，important news，longer explanations．
So，e-mail won't go away completely．Remember，we've been through a transition （过度） like this not so long ago：when e-mail was on the rise，people said that postal mail was dead．That's not how it works．Postal mail found its smaller market，and so will e-mail．New technology rarely replaces old one completely； it just adds new alternatives．

56．What would the incoming generation like to do with their e-mail accounts？C
A．Contact close friends．
B．Send long messages．
C．Fill in some forms．
D．Communicate with their colleagues．

A．The possible reasons behind the decline of e-mail．
B．The likes and dislikes of the young generation．
C．The rapid development of e-communication channels．
D．Evidence about the uncertain future of easily-consumed messages．
58．What does the underlined word"ephemeral"in paragraph 5mean？D
A．Automatically-sending．
B．Randomly-written．
C．Hardly-recognized．
D．Shortly-appearing．
59．According to the passage，which of the following statements is true？B
A．It's too early to determine the decline of e-mail．
B．E-mail has reasons to exist on its own advantages．
C．E-mail，just like postal mail has come to its end．
D．We should feel sorry for the decline of e-mail．

12．由于对潜在的困难估计不足，当实验进展不顺时他一筹莫展．（prepare）As he wasn't well prepared for the potential difficulties，he was quite at a loss when the experiment wasn't going on smoothly．．

9．Imagine that you're looking at your company-issued smartphone and you notice an e-mail from Linkedin："These companies are looking for candidates like you!"You aren't necessarily searching for a job，but you're always open to opportunities，so out of curiosity，you click on the link．A few minutes later your boss appears at your desk．"We've noticed that you're spending more time on Linkedin lately，so I want to talk with you about your career and whether you're happy here，"she says．Uh-oh．
It's an awkward scene．Attrition（损耗） has always been expensive for companies，but in many industries the cost of losing good workers is rising，owing to tight labor markets．Thus companies are intensifying（增强） their efforts to predict which workers are at high risk of leaving so that managers can try to stop them．Tactics（策略） range from electronic monitor to sophisticated（复杂的） analyses of employees'social media lives．
Some of this work may be a reason to let employees to quit．In general，people leave their jobs because they don't like their boss，don't see opportunities for promotion or growth，or are offered a higher pay； these reasons have held steady for years．
New research conducted by CEB，a Washington-based technology company，looks not just at why workers quit but also at when．"We've learned that what really affects people is their sense of how they're doing compared with other people in their peer group，or with where they thought they would be at a certain point in life，"says Brian Kropp，who heads CEB's HR practice．"We've learned to focus on moments that allow people to make these comparisons．"
Technology also provides clues about which star employees might be eyeing the exit．Companies can tell whether employees usmg work computers or phones are spending time on （or even just opening e-mails from） career websites，and research shows that more firms are paying attention to these things．Large companies have also begun tracking badge swipes（浏览痕迹）employees'use of an ID to enter and exit the building or the parking garage-to identify patterns that suggest a worker may be interviewing for a job．

Using a stress ball doesn't require any particular instructions or skills．（40）CRepeated use of a stress ball can，of course，cause the same problems that other repetitive motions are associated with，but taking breaks from typing and other repetitive tasks to squeeze a stress ball a few times can be beneficial．
