题目内容
A new technique _________ the yields as a whole increased by about 30 percent.
- A.had applied
- B.having applied
- C.to have applied
- D.having been applied
句意为:“由于采用了新工艺,产量总体上增加了百分之三十。”本题考查独立主格结构。a new technique在逻辑上它是非谓语动词apply 的逻辑宾语,而本句的非谓语动词的动作又发生在谓语动词之前,所以应用having been applied。句子的完整形式是:Because a new technique had been applied,the yields as a whole increased by about 30 percent.。
B
Here are two letters in WORKWORRIES, a column in a newspaper:
Dear Ariel, I got a job offer from a high-tech company with a fairly satisfactory paycheck and benefits.Even the work environment is cool.But I heard that the job requires a lot of overtime and even weekends.I know it's important for newcomers to work hard to get their feet planted firmly on the ground, but I'm scared of the idea of having nearly no free time.I still need to find a girlfriend.So, shall I accept the job or give it up for another one with much less pay and more freedom? Amoretto |
Dear Amoretto, I have two things to say: First, you're lucky to have such an excellent offer, especially at a time when so many qualified people are struggling to find any work at all; and second, you can't figure out your work-life balance until you're actually working. Take the job.You'll be learning, doing interesting things, working in a cool environment, and making money.If you're given a contract (合同), make sure you understand the terms before you sign.Ask your boss how many hours a week you're expected to work.If they tell you a number that is much lower than what you find once you're working, you'll be in a better position to talk to them about it. Give your work 100 percent.Work energetically and efficiently.If you're dedicated and focused, you might accomplish more than your co-workers in less time.Showing yourself to be a productive and talented worker for the beginning will give you more bargaining power.Finally, remember that taking a job doesn't have to be a life commitment.Try to give it at least a year (two is better).If you're really miserable after that time, look for another job that will give you more freedom.By then, you'll have workplace experience, bosses and colleagues who can speak positively about your work and some savings.Good luck!

If you hear the sound of running water the next time you call a co-worker on his or her mobile phone, don’t be surprised. Three-fourths of Americans with mobile phones say they use them in the bathroom, a new study shows.
Approximately(大约) the same number of men and women have used the phone in the bathroom, according to a survey of 1,000 Americans by 11 mark, an integrated marketing agency, although men seem more attached to IT in the toilet: 30 percent of men versus(VS) 20 percent of women agreed with the statement, "I don't go to the bathroom without my mobile phone."
More than half the surveyed users (63 percent) said they have answered a phone call in the bathroom, and almost half (41 percent) reported initiating a phone call. That's not all, however. What goes on behind the walls of the stalls(小隔间) is anything a mobile phone is capable of. Sixty-seven percent said they have read a text, and 39 percent have surfed the Web. Men work more from the bathroom — 20 percent said they have participated in work-related calls, versus 13 percent of their female colleagues.
As expected, Gen Y(1981年后出生的一代) respondents(调查对象) are the pacesetters(先导者) in the "mobile everywhere" movement, with 91 percent using their phone in the bathroom. Still, older generations are not far behind. Eighty percent of Gen X(1961-1981) reported using the phone in the bathroom, as did 65 percent of Baby Boomers(1946-1965) and 47 percent of the Silent Generation(1925-1945).
While online, they are doing more than just surfing; 16 percent of Gen Y report they have made an online purchase while in the bathroom. Users of iPhones are particularly likely to browse and buy in the bathroom – 22 percent have made a purchase, versus 10 percent of Americans with mobile phones overall.
"The writing is on the stall," said 11 mark principal Nicole Burdette. "This study confirms what we all know: that the last private place is no longer private."
In the process, high-tech hygiene(卫生) is taking a hit, the survey found. While 92 percent of mobile phone users said they wash their hands after using the bathroom, only 14 percent said they wash their phones.

A. no wonder mobile phones are used in the bathroom
B. the bathroom is a private place for people
C. it makes people have no privacy at all
D. more men have used the phone in the bathroom
3.What does the last paragraph of the passage imply?
A. Using phones in the bathroom has a bad effect on hygiene
B. Mobile phones should not be allowed to use in the bathroom
C. Most people care about the hygiene after using the bathroom
D. Few people wash their phones after using the bathroom
