题目内容

【题目】读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(不多于3个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

China has the【1】 (distinct) of respecting the aged and cherishing the young. Contrary to popular belief, however, older people generally do not want to live with their children.

According to the latest 【2 (analyze), about 80% of people 65 years and older have frequent contact with their children. About 75% of elderly parents 【3 don't go to nursing homes live within 30 minutes for the sake of 【4 (convenient).

However, 【5 (mere) having contact with children does not guarantee happiness in old age. So far, some researchers 【6 (find) that people who are most associated with their families have the lowest spirits. So it is more likely 【7 poor health, not just family involvement, deepens spirits.

Increasingly, researchers have begun to look at the quality of relationships, rather than at the frequency of contact, between the elderly and their children. If parents and children come to a compromise 【8 taking good care of children, they are likely to enjoy each other's company. Disagreements on such matters can turn out 【9 (be) problems. If parents are angered by their daughter's divorce, dislike her new husband, and disapprove of how she is raising 【10 grandchildren, chances are that they are not going to enjoy her visits.

【解析】

试题分析:

【1】distinction 冠词用在名词前面,故填distinction。

【2】analysis/analyses 句意:根据最近的分析。形容词修饰名词,故填analysis/analyses。

【3】who /that 此处parents是先行词,指人,后面的定从句缺少引导词、缺少主语,故填who /that。

【4】convenience 表示因为方便的缘故。这里用名词形式作定语修饰sake,故填 convenience。

【5】merely 副词修饰动词,故填merely。

【6】have found 根据So far可知此处用现在完成时态,再根据主语some researchers,故填have found。

【7】that 此处it是形式主语,that引导的主语从句是真正的主语,故填that。

【8】on/over 句意:如果父母和孩子们在照顾好孩子的问题上妥协。表示在某方面on/over。

【9】to be turn out + to be + 形容词表示结果是……”,故填to be。

【10】their 句意:她正在养育他们的孙子。故填their。

【知识拓展】

【题目】Digital technology email and smart phones especially have vastly improved workers' ability to be productive outside of a traditional office. Even so, most white-collar work still happens in an office. One reason is that, according to findings of a new survey (调查) of office workers conducted by Wakefield Research for the IT company Citrix, most bosses are doubtful about remote working. Half of the workers say their boss doesn't accept it and only 35 percent say it’s tolerated.

Skeptical bosses will likely have their doubts reinforced (加深) by the same survey, which shows that 43 percent of workers say they’ve watched TV or a movie while “working” remotely, while 35 percent have done housework,and 28 percent have cooked dinner.

It is true, however,that working at home makes people much more efficient (高效的), because it allows workers to take care of annoying housework while still getting their jobs done. It’s much faster, for example, to shop for groceries at a quarter to three than to stand in line during the after-work rush.

The fact that such practices remain officially unaccepted reflects how far we haven't come as a society from the days when we expected every full-time worker to be supported by a full-time homemaker.

More broadly the Wakefield survey suggests that employers may be missing a low-cost way to give workers something of value. Sixty-four percent of those survey participants who have worked remotely would rather give up some bonus in order to get even one day a week working from home. Under such circumstances, smart firms need to find ways to let their employees have enough flexibility to manage their time efficiently.

【1】Why do some employers hesitate to allow remote working?

A. They fear losing control of their workers.

B. They want to stick to their routine practice.

C. They have little trust in modem technology.

D. They are used to face-to-face communication.

【2】What seems to be most workers’ attitude toward remote working?

A. Doubtful.B. Favorable.C. Reserved.D. Disapproving.

【3】What does the author suggest smart firms do?

A. Shorten their office hours.

B. Give employees a pay raise.

C. Adopt flexible work patterns.

D. Reduce their staff’s workload.

【题目】In our daily life, we may meet some people who are so shy. It’s perfectly OK to take time to warm up new people. 1

Start small talks with people you know. Practice social behaviors like eye contact, confident body language, introductions, asking questions, and invitations with the people you feel most comfortable around.

2 Often, the hardest part of talking to someone new is getting started. Think of conversation openers, like introducing yourself, or asking a question. Being ready with a conversation starter (or a few) makes it easier to get to know someone.

Rehearse (排练) what to say. Write down what you want to say beforehand. Rehearse it out loud, maybe even in front of the mirror. Then just do it. Don’t worry if it’s not exactly like what you have practiced or if it’s not perfect. 3 Next time, it’ll be better because it will be easier.

4 Find group activities where you can be with people who share your interests. Give yourself a chance to practice socializing (社交) with these new people, and get to know them slowly.

Most of all, be yourself. It’s OK to try out different conversational ways you know. But say and do what fits your style. 5

A. Nobody is perfect.

B. It’s easier said than done.

C. Think of some conversation starters.

D. It’s important to work out in groups.

E. Here are some tips for beating shy feelings.

F. Give yourself a chance to take part in activities.

G. Being the real you is the best way to attract new friends.
