9.Leadership is a word getting a lot of attention these days.It appears in the title of new advice,how-to,and business books with amazing (51)B.Definitions vary,but most of the ones I've seen don't help much.It's a totally (52)D subject:You think A is a great leader; I like B's (53)B better.That is,you may not be able to (54)A it,but you know it when you see it.So this is my take on the elusive (难以捉摸的) concept:
Years ago,leadership had (55)C to do with a specific ability."Leader"was the(56)C given to the emperor of the organization.The person was the commander,the (57)A with complete control.But (58)D there is another way to establish yourself as a leader.
Here is my definition:Leadership is the ability to get others to do what you want,need,or expect them to do,and feel good about doing it.It is the(59)B part (feeling good about doing it) that is so elusive.
If I am in charge,I can certainly demand you do what I expect you to do and insist you get it done.I can give orders.(60)B,I am the boss,and everyone knows what that means.It is a sure way to destroy the atmosphere of the(61)D.
Today,I believe that approach is on the way(62)D,although it will always be with us.When people hate the boss,sure,the boss is called"leader"-but not a good one,because the followers are an unhappy bunch.If they had another,(63)C job to go to,they would be gone in a minute.
Here is a list of the qualities I believe it(64)B to be a good leader:1.Likable; 2.Trustworthy; 3.Competent and experienced; 4.Part of the team; 5.Able and willing to participate; 6.Ready to(65)C; 7.Adaptable to change; 8.Eager to share credit.

解答 51-55 BDBAC 56-60 CADBB 61-65 DDCBC
51.B.考查名词的词义辨析和语境理解.本句意指领导一词在各种书籍里出现的频率很高,故选B.
52.D.考查形容词的词义辨析和语境理解.该空可根据后句,表示不同的人对领导的定义不同,对好领导定义也不同,因此可以明白领导的概念完全是人们的主观想法,选D.
53.B.考查名词的词义辨析和语境理解.这里指的是B认为这样的领导风格更好,故选B.也是呼应前句,不同的人对领导定义不同.
54.A.考查动词的词义辨析和语境理解.该空也是呼应前句,表示难以下一个定义,选A.
55.C.考查代词的词义辨析和语境理解.本题所在句与后句形成对比关系.先是说多年前领导和具体能力之间的关系,再到后面引出作者观点,作者认为现在的领导要有各种能力,因此可以判断前面那句说的是领导与能力无关,故选C.
56.C.考查名词的词义辨析和语境理解.承接上题,领导既然与能力无关,那么就是皇帝所获得的一种职称,选C.
57.A.考查名词的词义辨析和语境理解.领导能够拥有完全掌控的能力,说明他有权威,选A.
58.D.考查副词的词义辨析和语境理解.承接上文,上文说领导苦于没有一个明确的定义,但是我们可以对领导的工作任务进行罗列,并以此定义,故选D表示很荣幸,很有幸.
59.B.考查数词的词义辨析和语境理解.本题很容易,看到前句,作者把领导要求别人做的事或者希望别人做的事放在前面,而把感觉良好放在后面,所以感觉好是处于第二位的,选择B.
60.B.考查介词短语的词义辨析和语境理解.本题也很容易.前面已经说如果我是负责人,我是老大,那么我就可以要求别人听命于我,发号施令,毕竟我是Boss,选择B.
61.D.考查名词的词义辨析和语境理解.从这一空开始,作者不再一味说领导的特色,而是直陈领导工作中的弊端以及好领导的特点.本题承接前面的句子,说明这种领导会破坏工作环境,故选D.
62.D.考查介词的词义辨析和语境理解.on the way out是固定搭配,表示"即将过时".故选D.
63.C.考查形容词的词义辨析和语境理解.本题所在句是作者表述的另一观点,说的是如果员工讨厌领导,而又看到另外一份收入体面的工作,员工自然会离职,这也是很正常的事,故选C.
64.B.考查动词的词义辨析和语境理解.本题所在句从"I believe"开始是一句定语从句,里面再套了一句宾语从句.意指做一个好领导,需要具备以下一些特质,选择B类似于"It takes time for sb.to do…".
65.C.考查动词的词义辨析和语境理解.一个好领导自然是要懂得倾听,故选C.

Most theories of juvenile delinquency have focused on children from(55)Cfamilies,(56)Bthe fact that children from wealthy homes also commit crimes.The latter may commit crimes for lack of adequate control from parents.All(57)D,however,are uncertain or unimproved and are of course challenged with criticism.
Changes in the social structure may indirectly(58)Ajuvenile crime rates.For example,changes in the economy that(59)Bto fewer job opportunities for youth and rising unemployment(60)Amake gainful employment increasingly difficult to obtain.This results in(61)Bamong youths and may in(62)Clead more youths into criminal behavior.
Families have also experienced(63)Dthese years.More families consist of one parent households or two working parents; (64)Bchildren are likely to have less supervision at home than was common in the traditional family(65)C.This lack of parental supervision is thought to be an influence on juvenile crime rates.Other noticeable(66)Bof offensive acts include(67)Bexperience or failure in school,the(68)Cavailability of drugs and alcohol,and the growing phenomenon of child abuse and child neglect.All these conditions tend to increase the(69)Dof a child committing a criminal act,(70)Ba direct cause and effect relationship has not yet been established.
