2.In our hyper-technolo gical age,the way we interact with others face-to-face tells others how well we work with others,as well as our ability to maintain good interpersonal relations.
(36)GHere are five job interview mistakes that millennials (千禧一代)often make,so you can be sure not to make them too.
1.Overusing the word"Like"
Even though we all have problems with inserting the word into our everyday speech,giving our every other word with"like"has implications millennials may not even be aware of.(37)A
2.Forgetting to put your phone on silent
If your phone constantly pings and makes other noises during your interview,the person you're talking to will not be impressed.You are a generation that always has a phone in hand.(38)F
3.Dressing inappropriately
Although work attire now tends more toward casual than a three-piece business suit,it's still incredibly unprofessional to show up in clothing that's clearly not suitable for the office.
4.Talking too proudly
In a generation that values the individual above anything else,it can feel almost like second nature to talk too much about oneself.(39)D
5.(40)E
A preliminary Google search regarding the company you want to work for takes no more than 5 minutes,but the knowledge goes a long way.Even though we live in an age of extreme connectivity and Internet knowledge overload,don't forget to brush up on your facts before meeting up with your interviewer.

A.It can make us appear like we're guessing ourselves,not confident.
B.Forgetting the knowledge.
C.Talking too much is a disadvantage,sometimes.
D.Remember to find the balance between saying too little and saying too much.
E.Not doing the research.
F.Not taking seconds to make sure it won't disturb others is a sure sign of carelessness.
G.This makes the job interview especially critical.

分析 文章介绍了五种千禧一代在工作面试时经常犯的错误,即过渡使用like词,忘记把手机调成静音,打扮不适宜等.

解答 GAFDE
36.G 细节题.根据文章的一段可知,在我们这个高科技的时代我们面对面交流的方式能够展示我们工作中与别人相处以及发展人际关系的能力.故这也使面试这样面对面的活动显得尤为重要.
37.A细节题. 根据第一个标题Overusing the word"Like"可知我们不要过度使用"like"一词,以及"…giving our every other word with"like"has implications millennials may not even be aware of"我们总是说"like"能暗示很多千禧一代未意识到的问题.因此下一句应该是这样老是说"like"所产生的问题.故选A.
38.F 细节题.根据第二个标题Forgetting to put your phone on silent以及下文可知,千禧一代经常忘了把手机调到静音模式,这样给人留下不好的印象,也会打断别人,给人一种太粗心大意的影响.故选F.
39.D 细节题.根据第个标题Talking too proudly以及下文的可知.千禧一代更看重自我,因此乐意过多的谈论自我.因此在面试中要把握好谈论自我和谈的不充分之间平衡,故选D.
40.E.归纳题.通过该段的内容可知,面试前,在网上搜索目 标公司的情况完全不占用你多少的时间,但是得到的内容却能让你在之后的阶段大有用处.因此可知很多千禧一代并没有提前做好调查研究.故选E.

点评 七选五阅读是完成性阅读,和完形填空很类似,不同的是一个选词,一个选句子.解题时,要注意上下文语境,充分考虑信息词(选项中和空格前后句子中相同或相近的词),选出最符合语境的句子.

12.Danielle Steel,America's sweetheart,is one of the hardest working women in the book business.Unlike other productive authors who write one book at a time,she can work on up to five.Her research before writing takes at least three years.Once she has fully studied her subjects,ready to dive into the book,she can spend twenty hours nonstop at her desk.
Danielle Steel comes from New York and was sent to France for her education.After graduation,she worked in the public relations and advertising industries.Later she started a job as a writer which she was best fit for.Her achievements are unbelievable:390 million copies of books in print,nearly fifty New York Times best-selling novels,and a series of"Max and Martha"picture books for children to help them deal with the real-life problem of death,new babies and new schools.Her 1998 book about the death of her work shot to the top of the New York Times best-selling list as soon as it came out.Twenty-eight of her books had been made into films.She is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records for one of her books being the Times best-seller for 381weeks straight.
Not content with a big house,a loving family,and a view of the Golden Gate Bridge.Danielle Steel considers her readers to be the most important resource and has kept in touch with them by e-mail.While she is often compared to the heroines of her own invention,her life is undoubtedly much quieter.But,if she does have anything in common with them,it is her strength of will and her inimitable (独特的)style.There is only one Danielle Steel.

25.Danielle Steel is different from other writers in thatA.
A.she can write several books at the same time
B.she often does some research before writing a book

17.High blood pressure is defined as 140mmHg over 90mmHg,and for years,doctors have used that measure as the threshold for prescribing anti-hypertensive drugs.But based on new recommendations,adults who are 60or older can wait until their readings reach 150over 90or above to begin medication.After reviewing available evidence on the effects of blood pressure treatments,the Institute of Medicine's Eighth Joint National Committee (JNC 8)concluded that aggressive treatment can lead to lightheadedness,falls and fainting in elderly populations-so they advised loosening the guidelines for starting medication.
But days after the guidelines were published,heart experts raised concerns about how the advice would affect patients; inadequately controlled blood pressure is a risk factor for heart attack and stroke.
Members of the JNC8who voted against the recommendations published an editorial in the Annals of Internal Medicine outlining their reasons for opposing the change."We,the panel minority,believed that evidence was insufficient to increase the target goal from its current level because increasing the goal may cause harm by increasing the risk for CVD(心血管疾病)and partially undoing the remarkable progress in reducing cardiovascular mortality in Americans older than 60,"they wrote.
Dr.Suzanne Steinbaum said she has not changed the way she treats her patients over 60.She says,"As a preventive cardiologist(心脏病学家),these new guidelines have made me crazy.What we have learned is that blood pressure treatment even for a patient above 80has been shown to be critical.It goes against everything we know as cardiologists."
Defending the panel's decision,Dr.Paul A.James,co-chairman of the guidelines committee,said in an email to TIME,"I can assure you that the panel discussed the opinions of the minority members on three different occasions and the majority were not persuaded that the expert skills of a few members should override the scientific evidence."
James said that as with any medications,doctors will use the blood pressure recommendations as guidelines,and prescribe drugs based on their evaluation of each patient."Medications prescribed by physicians all have the potential to be dangerous,"he wrote."Educating doctors about the scientific evidence will help doctors make better decisions with patients.Physicians who practice on the basis of scientific evidence usually subscribe to simple rule-if the medicine cannot be shown to help the patient,then the medicine should not be prescribed."
The editorial isn't likely to change them any time soon.But the concerns should urge doctors to monitor their patients more closely and tailor medications and their doses more carefully.

7.Ants are troublesome,best known for itchy bites and ruining picnics.But,a new species of crazy ant is taking over Texas.In some ways they appear to be worse than fire ants and there's no good way to stop them.These ants move fast and are plentiful in some areas.
The crazy ants first sprang in Pearland in 2002 and have been becoming more and more of a problem ever since."An invasion of these can be so extreme that it's hard to call it just a nuisance,"University of Texas entomologist Edward LeBrun told The Austin American-Statesman."The ants have been known to crawl into and ruin televisions,appliances and other electronic devices.No one is entirely sure why,"He said.
David Oi,a research entomologist at the Department of Agriculture,told The New York Times in 2013,the strange idea that the ants are actually attracted to the electricity itself can't be ruled out.
The crazy ants or Raspberry ants-yep,that's actually what they are called-are found in 23 Texas counties.The ants have very little venom(毒液),but do cause a slight sting when they bite.Mostly,though,they're a hazard to electrical equipment.
They are a relatively new species in the region and little is known about how to control or kill the population.And,unfortunately,there doesn't seem to be much that can be done about them right now.So,for the moment,the best advice is not to stay close to ant piles and groups,and hope that none make it inside to crawl around the electronics.

28.What do the ants do in Texas?C
A.Bite some people.
B.Damage local crops.
C.Destroy appliances.
D.Pollute environment.
29.The underlined word"nuisance"in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to"C".
A.story     
B.visit         
C.problem       
D.failure
30.When meeting with ant piles,we'd betterD.
A.kill them all          
B.control them
C.drive them away  
D.stay away from them
31.What can we know from the text?B
A.The crazy ants first appeared in Texas in 2013.
B.The crazy ants cause huge toss to the people in Texas.
C.The government is taking measures to deal with the ant.
D.David Oi is sure why the ants ruin electronic devices.
