Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage: When Kathie Gifford's face was splashed across the newspapers in 1996 after her lucrative line of Wallmart clothing was exposed as the work of underpaid laborers in New York City’s Chinatown, the Department of Labor and the White House teamed up to condemn such practices. With much fanfare, President Clinton’s administration launched the “No Sweat” campaign, which pressured retailers and manufacturers to submit to periodic independent inspection of their workplace conditions.; This campaign urged manufacturers to sign the Workplace Code of Conduct, a promise to self regulate that has since been adopted by a handful of retailers and many of the nation’s largest manufacturers, including Nike and L.L. Bean. However,
the Department of Defense, which has a $ 1 billion garment business that would make it the country’s 14th largest retail apparel outlet, has not signed the Code of Conduct. In addition, it has not agreed to demand that its contractors submit to periodic inspections.;
Because the Department of Defense has not agreed to adhere to the code, the job of stopping publicsector sweatshops falls to the Department of Labor. Federal contractors that persist in violating wage laws or safety and health codes can lose their lucrative taxpayerfinanced contracts. But Suzanne Seiden, a deputy administrator at the Department of Labor, says that to her knowledge, the department has never applied that rule to government apparel manufacturers. “I just assume that they are adhering to safety and health requirements,” she says. According to records obtained by Mother Jones, through a Freedom of Information Act request, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration has cited Lion 32 times for safety and health violations in the past 12 years. 21. What is this passage mainly concerned with? A) The functions of the Department of Labor in America. B) A serious problem threatening American economy.
C) The successful attempt of regulating sweatshops in America.
D) The seriousness of the problem of sweatshops in America.
22.According to the passage, Kathie Gifford ____. A) was one of the underpaid laborers in New York City’s Chinatown
B) was one of the wellpaid laborers in New York City’s Chinatown
C) made much money from cheap laborers in New York City’s Chinatown
D) wrote a newspaper article exposing the practice of employing cheap laborers
23.The underlined phrase “to submit to” is closest in meaning to ____.
A) to accept unwillingly B) to refuse coldly
C) to welcome warm heartedly D) to blame strongly
24. Which of the following statements about the Department of Defense is true?
A) It will become the country’s 14th largest retail apparel
manufacturer.
B) It hasn’t acted according to the Workplace Code of Conduct. C) It has demanded its contractors to sign the Workplace Code of Conduct.
D) It has teamed up with the Department of Labor to launch a campaign.
25. What was the purpose of President Clinton’s administration launching the “No Sweat” campaign?
A) To urge manufacturers to obey the Workplace Code of Conduct. B) To remind the manufacturers of the Workplace Code of Conduct. C) To urge the Department of Labor to take its responsibility. D) To urge the Department of Defense to inspect manufacturers. Passage Two
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage: The term investment portfolio conjures up visions of the truly rich-the Rockefellers, the Wall Mart Walton’s, Bill Gates. But today, everyone-from the Philadelphia firefighter, his part time receptionist wife and their three children, to the single Los Angeles lawyer starting out on his own-needs a portfolio.; A portfolio is simply a collection of financial assets. It may include real estate, rare stamps and coins, precious metals and
even artworks. But those are for people with expertise. What most of us need to know about are stocks, bonds and cash (including such cash equivalents as money market funds).; How do you decide what part of your portfolio should go to each of the big three? Begin by understanding that stocks pay higher returns but are more risky; bonds and cash pay lower returns but are less risky.;
Research by Ibbotson Associates, for example, shows that large company stocks, on average, have returned 11.2 percent annually since 1926. Over the same period, by comparison, bonds have returned an annual average of 5.3 percent and cash, 3.8 percent.; But short term risk is another matter. In 1974, a one year $1000 investment in the stock market would have declined to $735.; With bonds, there are two kinds of risk: that the borrower won’t pay you back and that the money you'll get won’t be worth very much. The U.S. government stands behind treasury bonds, so the credit risk is almost nil. But the inflation risk remains. Say you buy a $1000 bond maturing in ten years. If inflation averages about seven percent over that time, then the $1000 you receive at maturity can only buy $500 worth of today’s goods.; With cash, the inflation risk is lower, since over a long period you can keep rolling over your CDs every year (or more often).
If inflation rises, interest rates rise to compensate.; As a result, the single most important rule in building a portfolio is this: If you don’t need the money for a long time, then put it into stocks. If you need it soon, put it into bonds and cash.
26. This passage is intended to give advice on ____. A) how to avoid inflation risks B) what kinds of bonds to buy
C) how to get rich by investing in stock market D) how to become richer by spreading the risk
27. The author mentions such millionaires as the Rockefellers and Bill Gates to show that ____.
A) they are examples for us on our road to wealth B) a portfolio is essential to financial success C) they are really rich people D) they started out on their own
28.Which of the following statements will the author support? A) Everybody can get rich with some financial assets. B) The credit risk for treasury bonds is extremely high. C) It’s no use trying to know the advantages of stocks, bonds and cash.
D) Everybody should realize the importance of distribution of their financial assets.
29.The word “returns” in paragraph three can be best replaced by “____.”
A) returning journeys B) profits C) savings D) investments
30. The author of the passage points out that ____. A) keeping cash is the only way to avoid risks B) the longer you own a stock, the more you lost
C) the high rate of profit and high rate of risk coexist in stocks
D) the best way to accumulate wealth is by investing in stocks
Passage Three
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:
There were two widely divergent influences on the early development of statistical methods. Statistics had a mother who was dedicated to keeping orderly records of governmental units (state and statistics come from the same Latin root, status) and a gentlemanly gambling father who relied on mathematics to increase his skill at playing the odds in games of chance. The influence of the mother on the offspring, statistics, is represented by counting, measuring, describing, tabulating, ordering, and the taking of censuses—all of which led to modern descriptive statistics. From the influence of the father came modern inferential statistics, which is based squarely on theories of probability.;
Descriptive statistics involves tabulating, depicting, and describing collections of data. These data may be either quantitative, such as
measures of height, intelligence, or grade level—variables that are characterized by an underlying continuum—or the data many represent qualitative variables, such as sex, college major, or personality type. Large masses of data must generally undergo a process of summarization or reducing to comprehensibly form the properties of an otherwise unwieldy mass of data.; Inferential statistics is a formalized body of methods for solving another class of problems that present great difficulties for the unaided human mind. This general class of problems characteristically involves attempts to make predictions using a sample of observations. For example, a school superintendent wishes to determine the proportion of children in a large school system who come to school without breakfast, have been vaccinated for flu, or whatever. Having a little knowledge of statistics, the superintendent would know that it is unnecessary and inefficiency to question each child; the proportion for the entire district could be estimated fairly accurately from a sample of as few as 100 children. Thus, the purpose of inferential statistics is to predict or estimate
characteristics of a population from knowledge of the characteristics of only a sample of the population.
31. What is the passage mainly concerned with? A) Development and application of statistics. B) Origin of descriptive statistics.
C) Limitations of inferential statistics. D) Importance of statistics.
32. Describing and tabulating are associated with ____. A) inferential statistics B) descriptive statistics C) theories of probability D) inefficiency of counting
33. Which of the following statements is true about descriptive statistics? A) It combines quantitative variables and qualitative variables. B) It can be used to deal with only quantitative variables. C) It helps to summarize properties of a group of data.
D) It helps to make predictions using a sample of observations. 34.The word “unwieldy” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to ____.
A) difficult to collect B) difficult to tackle C) incomprehensive D) uncontrollable
35. A sample of a population is often examined for the following purposes except ____.
A) to make a more accurate prediction of trend
B) to improve efficiency and avoid unnecessary work C) to save the trouble of approaching every members D) to predict characteristics of the entire population Passage Four
Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:
The Japanese are fascinated by automata and new inventions. Japanese children are used to friendly robots in their comics, in toys, and in TV animated cartoons. When as adults they join the workforce, robots mean that there is no need to import cheap foreign labor, as happens in many other parts of the world. There is no need for humans to put up with dirty, minddeadening mechanical work the robot does it all without complaint, around the clock. Robots don't go on strike over tea breaks they don’t have tea, or any other kind of breaks: they work, day and night, without having to be paid overtime, without making mistakes. Human tasks are subject to human error: robot error seldom or never occurs except as a result of human error!;
In Japan, robots are almost respected for their virtues. When a new robot is introduced to a small suburban factory, a Shinto priest is invited to inaugurate it. He inaugurates the robot with words along the lines of “Welcome to our coworker, we hope you'll help him settle in.” No one laughs.;
FANUC demonstrates the Japanese tendency to conform particularly
strikingly. The founder of FANUC, Dr. Indaba, has created an army that makes no distinction between blue collar, white collar and steel collar worker: everyone, including the warlord himself, is dressed in yellow clothing issued free by the company. Perhaps to make up for the boring nature of the work, there are a number of other company perks. Company benefits, including pay, are much higher than in similar companies in Japan. Travel to and from work is provided free in the company’s yellow buses. However, workers are expected to put in demanding unpaid
“overtime.” There is a clock in the product development laboratory set to run at ten times the normal speed, the remind everyone that the company is on a war footing.; As we watched Dr. Indaba’s yellow helicopter soar away to Narita airport, we couldn’t help thinking that his dream of world domination in robotics and allied applications might be more elegantly achieved if he had also thought to program his robots to whistle while they work.
36. According to the author, which of the following is not true to the Japanese?
A) Robots mean there is no need to import cheap foreign labor. B) Robots mean that humans needn’t do dirty and noisy work. C) Robots mean there are neither strikes nor overtimes. D) Robots mean there is no mistake in any form.
37.What can be inferred form the words “He inaugurates the robot with words along the lines of ‘Welcome to our coworker, we hope you’ll help him settle in.’ No one laughs.”?
A) The Japanese has no sense of humor while at work.
B) The Japanese does not understand the words of the Shinto priest. C) The Japanese shows a true respect for robots.
D) The Japanese goes too far in their respect for robots. 38. Which of the following is not true about FANUC? A) Workers receive higher pay for working overtime. B) Workers enjoy free travel to and from work.
C) Workers are doing boring, sometimes demanding work. D) Workers are reminded of being on a war footing.
39.What is not implied in the following works “we couldn’t help thinking that his dream of world domination in robotics and allied applications might be more elegantly achieved if he had also thought to program his robots to whistle while they work.”?
A) Our technology is not yet up to the needs of Dr. Indaba’s dream. B) Dr. Indaba’s dream of world domination in robotics lacks humanity. C) Dr. Indaba’s dream of allied applications is too practical. D) The author is in favor of Dr. Indaba’s dream.
40.What does “our coworker” refer to in the sentence “Welcome to our coworker, we hope you’ll help him settle in?” A) Japanese workers who attend the inauguration. B) The introduced robot.
C) The people who have invented the robot. D) Japanese workers in general.

Part Ⅱ Passage One 内容概要:
本文讲述了美国“工作场所操作规范”诞生的背景和实施情况。1996年，美国一些地方和部门的低收入工人抗议血汗工厂，随后克林顿政府发起“无血汗”运动，要求零售商和制造商签署《工作场所操作规范》。可是国防部拒绝执行；美国劳工部作为政府部门，却称主要要求制造商们遵守安全和卫生规定。 21.【答案】D。
【译文】这篇文章主要讲述什么？
【试题分析】归纳概括题(Summing up and summarizing)，这种试题要求学生能把握文章的总
体，并真正理解主题和中心大意。
【详细解答】文章从开始就讲述众多的低收入工人集体抗议工作条件，导致Kathie Gifford的服装厂被曝光；于是克林顿政府发起“无血汗”运动，可是国防部拒绝签署《工作场所操作规范》，劳工部却称该部门主要要求制造商们遵守安全和卫生规定。可见美国政府部门对于血汗工厂的问题存有分歧，也难以解决。所以文章的中心大意是美国血汗工厂的问题目前最严重的地方是美国政府对此的态度不够统一和坚决。A）太偏，不是讲美国劳工部的职能；B）太泛，没有指明哪个问题，也不一定威胁到美国的经济；C）与文章意思相反，美国规范血汗工厂的努力并没有成功。D）最符合文章主题。 22.【答案】C。
【译文】根据本文，Kathie Gifford____ ？
【试题分析】细节理解题(Understanding details)。这类题一般只针对文章中某一个特定的细节，也可以涉及若干个细节，或者针对文章的主要事实而设问。
【详细解答】见文章第一句话“When Kathie Gifford...condemn such practices.”，Kathie Gifford的高利润的服装厂曝光了，之后她于1996年在报纸上被广泛报道。所以C）为正确答案。A）和B）与本句意思不符，她不是一名工人；D）说她写文章报道此事，也不对。 23.【答案】A。
【译文】与划线短语“to submit to” 意思最接近的是下列哪一项？
【试题分析】猜测词义题(Guessing at word meaning)。即运用一些猜测生词词义的方法，猜测生词的含义，以提高阅读速度和理解能力。
【详细解答】可以对上下文已知部分进行逻辑的推理。前面讲到克林顿发起的“无血汗”运动勒令零售商和制造商对车间环境进行定期检查，他们肯定是不情愿的，但这是总统的命令，所以他们就“不情愿地接受”。B）“冷冷地拒绝”；C）“热烈地欢迎”；D）“强烈地谴责”均与上下文意思不符。 24.【答案】B。
【译文】下列关于国防部的陈述哪一项是正确的？
【试题分析】分析判断题(Making an analysis and a judgment)。即根据文章中提供的事实，经过分析、思考做出这样或那样的判断选择。
【详细解答】这类题需要事先通读全文，理解全文主旨，尤其是关于国防部的内容；然后再将四个选项进行比较，用排除法。A）国防部是美国第14大零售服装制造商，这与文章中retail apparel outlet（零售服装批发商店）不符；B）它没有按照《工作场所操作规范》行事，这与文章中has not signed the code of conduct正好相符；C）它要求承包商签署《工作场所操
作规范》， 这与文章中it has not agreed to demand that its contractors submit to periodic inspections.相反；D）它要求劳工部发起一场运动，文章中没有提及。所以，对比分析可得知B为正确答案。 25.【答案】A。
【译文】克林顿政府发起“无血汗”运动的目的是什么？
【试题分析】细节理解中的词义转换题。这种题常常是原文有关词语和句子的转换，而不能在原文中直接找到。它要求考生能理解原文中某个短语或句子的含义，从而找到与答案意思相同的词语和句子。
【详细解答】文章第一段最后一句话“with much fanfare， ...， their workplace conditions.”是说，克林顿政府借此小题大做，以勒令制造商们对车间环境进行定期检查。关键词有pressure（强制，压迫，勒令），to submit to（屈服，服从）。第二段第一句话“this campaign urged manufacturers to sign the Conduct.”更加直接说明了这场运动的目的，即让他们签署并执行这一规范。故A）为正确答案。 Passage Two 内容概要:
本文介绍了大众化投资的三种渠道，并分析了每种渠道的基本特征和适用对象。第一种是股票投资，回报丰厚，但风险较大；第二种是债券投资，回报稍少，但风险也较小，主要风险是借债人不还和通货膨胀；第三种是投资现金，回报较少，通货膨胀影响也较小。基本原则是：如果你长期不需要用钱，就投资股票；如果你短期内要用钱，就投资债券和现金。 26.【答案】D。
【译文】文章的目的是给____提供建议？
【试题分析】归纳概括题。需要考生总结归纳短文(段落)的主题(subject)，中心思想(main idea)，标题(title)或作者的写作目的(purpose)。
【详细解答】通读全文后可知，本文主要介绍了投资的三种渠道，并分析了每种渠道的利弊（即风险程度），如何降低风险来投资致富，即D所指“如何降低风险来致富”。A）“如何避免通货膨胀风险”，过于片面；B）“买入哪种债券”，不是文章的主题；C）“如何通过投资股票市场致富”，也过于片面。所以D）为正确答案，可以概括文章中心思想。 27.【答案】D。
【译文】作者提及洛克菲勒、比尔盖茨这样的百万富翁是想说明____？
【试题分析】推理判断题。根据文章某一部分内容推理出作者的言外之意。需要找准、读懂
这部分内容，并分析与文章其它部分之间的联系和作用。
【详细解答】第一段最后一句话，“But today， ...， starting out on his own needs a portfolio.”这是讲的今天每个人都可以根据自己的需要进行证券投资；推到前面一句，那么前面提及的百万富翁也都是根据自己的需要开始证券投资而致富的。A）“他们是我们迈向致富之路的榜样”，不具体，没有说明如何致富；B）“证券投资对于经济成功很关键”，这句话本身是正确的，但与第一段表达的意思不一致；C）“他们确实很富裕”，也不是第一段所想要表达的意思。D）“他们是从自己开始做起的”，这正是第一段所要表达的意思，即这些百万富翁是从自己做起开始致富的，而现在每个人都可以这样做，紧接着引入下面的投资指南。 28.【答案】D。
【译文】作者赞同下列哪一项陈述？
【试题分析】分析判断题。考生尽量考虑文中的全部信息或事实，在通盘理解文章的基础上去分析每个选项的正误。
【详细解答】这类题应在理解文章的基础上，着重比较四个选项，采取排除法。A）“只要有一些财产，每个人都可以致富”，凭常识判断这句话本身就不对，更与作者想要介绍投资渠道的必要性和方法相悖；B）“购买国债的信誉风险极高”，这句话与“The U.S. government stands behind Treasury bonds， so the credit risk is almost nil.”意思完全相反；C）“了解股票、债券和现金的优势并无用处”，这与作者的观点相反；D）“每个人都应该意识到金融财产重新分配的重要性。”这正是第一段作者所说的“每个人都可以根据自己的需要采用不同的投资方式致富”的前提。故选D）。 29.【答案】B。
【译文】第三段中的“returns”可以由以下哪个词替代？ 【试题分析】猜测词义题。根据上下文来猜测生词的含义。
【详细解答】该词本身的意思是“回来，回报”，再看句子“stocks pay higher returns but are more risky.”是说股票有更高的回报，但风险更大；我们凭常识判断，股票的回报就是“赚钱，利润”。比较四个选项，B）profits（利润）正确。 30.【答案】C。
【译文】文章的作者指出____
【试题分析】分析判断题。比较四个选项，看哪一个符合作者的意思。
【详细解答】“作者指出”可以是文章中直接提到的，也可以是作者的言外之意，要结合文章判断四个选项本身是否正确。A）“保留现金是避免风险的唯一方式”，作者鼓励合理投资，显然这不是作者意思；B）“你持有股票越久，你损失越大。”这句话本身有误，文章中也没
有提及；C）“高利润和高风险在股票市场中同时存在”，这正是第三段中“stocks pay higher returns but are more risky.”意思，所以正确；D）“积累财富最好的方式是投资股票”，作者在文章最后明确指出“如果你长期不需要用钱，就投资股票；如果你短期要用，就投资债券和现金。”所以该项也不正确。 Passage Three 内容概要:
本文介绍了两种基本统计方法的发展及它们的应用。第一种是描述性统计方法，包括计算、测量、列表、排序、描述以及调查，既可统计数量也可统计质量；第二种是推理统计方法，主要是抽样分析，然后推而广之，得出结论。 31.【答案】A。
【译文】本文主要讲述什么？
【试题分析】典型的归纳概括题，要求考生归纳总结文章的中心思想。
【详细解答】首先细想一下全文的内容概要，再看四个选项。A）“统计学的发展与应用”，正是文章所讲的主要内容；B）“描述性统计”的起源，只说了文章中很小的一个方面；C）“推理统计方法的局限性”，文章中没有提及；D）“统计的重要性”，不是本文的重点。综合比较，A）正确。 32.【答案】B。
【译文】描述和列表与____相关？
【试题分析】细节理解题。找到文章中相关的内容，理解其含义，然后做答。
【详细解答】从文章的第二段可以得知，描述和列表是描述性统计方法的两种形式。再看四个选项。A）“推理性统计”，没有任何关系；B）“描述性统计”，正好相关；C）“可能性理论”，从第一段末可知，该理论是用于推理性统计的；D）“计算的无效”，与文章内容不符。故选B）。 33.【答案】C。
【译文】关于描述性统计下列哪一个陈述是正确的？ 【试题分析】分析判断题。对比分析，存真去伪。
【详细解答】仔细比较四个选项。A）“它将数量变量和质量变量结合起来了”，这误解了第二段中第二句话“either...or...”句型，要么是数量变量，要么是质量变量；B）“它只能用来处理数量变量”，也与上面句型含义相悖；C）“它有助于总结一组数据的特征”，这正是第二段
最后一句话“Large masses of data... the properties of an otherwise unwieldy mass of data.”的含义；D）“它有助于使用观察抽样进行预测”，这是推理性统计。所以选C）。 34.【答案】B。
【译文】与第二段中“unwieldy” 单词意思最接近的是____
【试题分析】猜测词义题。通过上下文的含义猜测生词的词义，将四个选项分别放到原句子中去比较也不失为一种好办法。
【详细解答】第二段最后一句话“Large masses of data... the properties of an otherwise unwieldy mass of data.”的意思是说，大量的数据群必须要有一个总结或减收的过程，以从可能是乱七八糟的数据群中找出其特征，关键词是otherwise，表示前后有个对比。可见后面提及的unwieldy mass of data是难以处理的数据。再看四个选项：A）“难以收集”，文章没有提收集；B）“难以处理”，与上下文正好相符；C）“不可理解的”，前面说将它们整理成容易理解的形式，可见它们还是“可以理解的”；D）“不可控制的”，与句意不符。故选B）。 35.【答案】A。
【译文】人口抽样经常用于下列目的，哪一项除外？
【试题分析】细节理解题。找到文章中关于人口抽样的内容，再进行比较选择。但要注意选的是除外的那一项。
【详细解答】文章最后一段讲到抽样100个小孩来进行分析预测。A）“进行更加准确的趋势预测”，抽样本身就不可能是为了更加“准确”，所以A错，应该选A。B）“提高效率，避免不必要工作”，这正是抽样的作用；C）“省去找每个成员的麻烦”，这也正是人口抽样的优势；D）“预测全体人群的特征”，正是人口抽样的目的。所以选A）。 Passage Four 内容概要:
本文介绍了机器人在日本的迅速发展和广泛应用。机器人在实际工作岗位上可以替代工人完成大量的工作，并表现出诸多的优势。正因为机器人的优点，日本人通常要举行隆重的仪式欢迎机器人投入工厂作业。日本著名的机器人专家伊纳巴博士发明了大量机器人，正梦想着统治全世界的机器人行业。 36.【答案】B。
【译文】根据作者的观点，下列哪一项对于日本人来讲是不正确的？
【试题分析】分析判断题。通读全文，并仔细比较四个选项；但要注意选择不正确的那一项。
【详细解答】在理解全文的基础上，比较四个选项。A）是第一段第三句话的原话，所以正确；B）“机器人意味着人们不必从事肮脏和吵闹的工作”，与第一段第四句话含义有所区别，原文是说，有了机器人人们就没有必要“忍受（put up with）肮脏、吵闹的工作，所以B与原文意思不完全一致；C）和D）也是文章中所提及的。相比较，A）、C）和D）都是文章中的原话，只有B）不符原意。故选B。 37.【答案】C。
【译文】“他在为机器人举行典礼仪式时，说这样的话„欢迎光临我们的这位同事，我们希望你能帮助他安顿下来。‟没有一个人笑”，从这句话可以推断出什么？
【试题分析】细节推理题。理解这句话的含义，然后推理出其中的深层含义，可进行比较选择。
【详细解答】这句话是对上帝说的。在场的人都很肃穆，没有一个人笑，说明日本人在这种场合表现出虔诚，这是对机器人的一种尊敬。四个选项中，C）最符合原意。日本人不笑并不能说明他们没有幽默感，也不是没有听懂牧师的话，他们的尊敬也没有过头，所以A）、B）、D）均不符题意。 38.【答案】A。
【译文】下列关于FANUC的陈述哪一个不正确？ 【试题分析】分析判断题。
【详细解答】文章倒数第二段中提到FANUC，这是日本一家专门研制机器人的公司。A）“工人们在加班时会有更高的回报”，可是文章中有一句话：“However， workers are expected to put in demanding unpaid overtime.”这种overtime是unpaid（没有报酬的），所A不正确。B）、C）、D）选项均为文章中的原话。故选A）。 39.【答案】A。
【译文】“我们禁不住这样认为，如果他也想到将他的机器人设计为边工作边吹口哨，那么他统治全世界机器人行业和相关应用的梦想就会更加娴雅地实现。”下列哪句话不是由这段文字推断出来的？ 【试题分析】分析判断题。
【详细解答】这段文字中think的宾语从句中使用的是虚拟语气，表示不可能的假设，同时对Inada没有想到这样做表示一种遗憾和惋惜。A）是表示我们的技术还不足以让Inada实现梦想，原文中是说他的梦想会更加娴雅地实现，意即他的梦想已经实现，所以A错；B）和C）均是说他的梦想太现实，缺乏人性，他设计的机器人并没有边工作边吹口哨（这代表一种休闲的工作方式），而作者认为这样，所以B和C均对；D）是说作者赞同Inada博士的梦想，从文字的语气中可以得知作者是希望他实现梦想的，而且还提出了更好地实现梦想
的建议，所以D也对。根据题意的要求，选A。 40.【答案】B。
【译文】“欢迎光临我们的这位同事，我们希望你能帮助他安顿下来。”这句话中的“co-worker”指什么？
【试题分析】猜测词义题。根据上下文猜测文中的指代名词，这需要分析这个指代名词的真正所指。
【详细解答】这句话中，这位同事（co-worker）显然与后半句中的“他”是同指，“他”安顿下来，那么“他”指什么呢？结合这是机器人投入使用的典礼仪式，是谁安顿下来呢？显然就是即将投入使用的机器人。所以“这位同事”（co-worker）是指即将投入使用的机器人，即B。

71.redistributing改为redistribute。attempt to 后面一般接动词原型，而不接动名词，因为这里的to是不定式符号，而不是介词，即attempt to do sth.。
72.you 改为others。此句是说，如果一部分相对比较穷，那么一部分人就会相对比较富。将人群分为两部分，此处就不能用you，others才可以表示人群的一部分。
73.在interests和than中间加上rather。此句不是表示比较（than），而是表示转折（公众政策反映他们的利益，而不是穷人的利益），所以应该用rather than （而不是）代替than。
74.doing改为done。此句是被动语态，表示“脏活被完成”，get 是系动词，所以应用do的过去分词形式done。
75.will改为would。此句使用了虚拟语气，表示对现在情况的假设，所以主句应用would。
76.cookers改为cooks。厨师是cook，而不cooker。cooker指炊具，与后面的“gardener（园丁）and other workers”不一致，所以应改为厨师（cook）。
77.when改为while。此处不是表示时间上的同时性，而是表示两种情形的对比，“一些人在做„„，而另一些人在做„„”。表示对比的连词一般用while。 78.去掉more。inferior本身就表示“低级的”，已经构成了比较形式，所以前面一般不能再加more。
79.competent 改为incompetent。此句讲的是穷人所能享受的服务，过期的面包、报废的汽车，还有不合格的医生和律师所提供的建议。如果是competent，则成了合格的医生和律师所提供的建议，那么与整句意思不符。
80.去掉in。此句中的which引导非限定性定语从句，作influence和change
的直接宾语，因为influence和change均为及物动词，所以不能加in。 Part Ⅴ 写作指导：
这是一篇限制性提纲作文。由于已经给出了写作主题和段落模式，所以必须紧扣标题，严格遵守提纲，达到规定字数。构思时结构一定要清晰，建议使用四段式，第一段综述，第二、三段分述，第四段做总结，二、三段是重点。可将提纲中的两点作为第二段和第三段的主题句，但不要逐字翻译，然后再找2～3个与主题相关的素材展开说明。另外还需注意：①写好第一句话。这样容易给阅卷者留下一个好印象，最好能用上一个漂亮的复合句，里面再用上2～3个难的单词或词组，但不能出错。②在写作时尽量多用长句，少用短句，适当加入几个结构较复杂的句子。可多用连接性的词组或单词，如first， second， moreover， for one thing...for another， on the one hand...on the other hand等等。可以把它们置于段首或文中比较显著的位置，这样会使文章更具条理性。③注意结尾的时候要点题，把自己的观点明确说出来。文章不要写得太长，这样容易引起阅卷者的反感，达到字数就可以了。④如有可能，适当加上一两句名言或是谚语，以显示你的水平。最后要注意没有语法错误，并保持卷面干净整洁。 本文可以这样写：首先第一段介绍在生活和工作节奏不断加快的今天，人们会碰到各种各样的个人危机，如：工作事业上的，婚恋家庭上的，人际关系上的等等；第二段则按照提纲中的第一点重点分析造成个人危机的起因，主要有自身处理事物能力不足，外部环境较为不利，以及运气不佳等等；第三段则根据提纲中第二点提出应对个人危机的方法，要根据第二段中的起因来提应对方法，可以写需要个人有坚强的意志毅力和不懈的努力奋斗，积极改善外部环境，善于抓住机遇；第四段可以适应发挥，进一步阐明自己的观点，并提出希望。 当然，也可以按照提纲就写两段，只要说清问题即可。 参考范文：
How to Deal with Personal Crisis Since different person may come across different crisis， it is difficult to answer why personal crisis will happen and what leads to the situation. It depends. But the main origins and causes can be concluded in the following three aspects： lack of strong mind and personal incompetence to overcome difficulty， disadvantageous surroundings， and bad luck. Only when one person does well in all these three aspects， can he or she avoid personal crisis.
But anyway， All is not lost that is in danger. Every cloud has a silver lining. One will surely come out from the crisis if he masters the right methods. At first， he should envisage the crisis with the right eye. And
then， he should be strongly-minded and be perseverant all the time. Thirdly， he should try his best to improve relation with his boss， colleagues， partners， friends， and his family members in order to get a better surrounding. At last， he should try to grasp every chance to make progress. In this way， the crisis can be transferred to success.
