  • 第2题:

    Which of the following statements is NOT mentioned in the passage?

    [A] Radical reforms are essential for the increase of productivity.

    [B] New ways of organizing workplaces may help to increase productivity.

    [C] The reduction of costs is not a sure way to gain long term profitability.

    [D] The consultants are a bunch of good-for-nothings.


    正确答案:A
    49. [A] 意为:激进的改革对生产率的提高极其重要。
       首先要看清楚题目,是说文章未提到的,大家一定不要犯这种低级错误,选了文章提到过的选项。,作者只指出促进生产率革命的措施并未奏效,未达到人们想象的效果,而并末提到应该如何才对。这属于过度引申的干扰项。
       B 意为:用新方法改变工作场所可以提高生产率。第三段第二句指出,重新改变工作场所仅是加快一个国家的国民经济综合生产率水平(overall productivity of an economy)的一种措施,促进生产率发展的因素还有许多,如:设备和机器投资、新技术、教育和培训投资等都会带来生产率的提高。
       C意为:降低成本并不能保证带来长期利润。根据第五段第三句,在比尔看来,许多公司机械地(in a mechanistic fashion)应用改革措施,降低了成本,但对长期盈利却考虑不够。可见,降低成本和长期盈利并非总是成正比。 
       D 意为:顾问们是一伙饭桶。不要以为这种骂人句肯定不会出现在原文中,那你就犯了主观主义错误了。文章最后一段指出,在罗森伯格看来,目前负责经济调整的顾问们所做的工作,多数都是垃圾(没有成效),是典型的“于事无补”。

    单选题
    As described in the passage, passion _____.

    has nothing to do with work

    B

    is one way to control emotions

    C

    is one kind of negative emotions

    D

    sometimes may transform into fury


    正确答案: D
    解析:
    推理判断题。文中“However, if what passion means is minding about work, I’m all for it.”意思是激情会影响工作,所以A错误。第五段提到“企业一方面要求员工在工作中充满激情,另一方面又要求员工表现出专业精神,即在工作中控制压抑自己的不良情绪。”而,激情和控制情绪互相冲突,所以B错误。第六段提到“激情意味着专心工作”,并不是负面情绪,所以C错误。文章提到“The trouble is that minding means sometimes feeling furious when things don’t go according to plan.”意思是麻烦在于,当事情不按计划发展时,关心在意就意味着愤怒,所以正确答案为D。
