【答案】4.A5.B6.C7.C
【解析】这是一篇传记类文章,主要讲述了卡耐基从贫穷,通过自己的努力成为一个成功人士的故事。
4.细节理解题,根据:
“hissuperiorswereimpressedbyhisabilitiesandwillingnesstoworkhard.”可知卡耐基被他的雇主高度评价,故A正确;根据“Carnegienowbegantosavealittlemoneyand,withthehelpofhisemployer,begantomakesomesuccessfulinvestments(投资)”可知:
卡耐基是在雇主的帮助下投资成功,故B错;根据:
“Inhisview,successful,wealthypeopleshouldgiveawaytheirwealthforthebenefitofeveryoneinsociety.”可见卡耐基认为钱不是全部,富有成功的人应该为社会做贡献,故C错误;D选项无中生有,没有依据,故错误,故选A。
5.细节理解题:
“Hecontinuedtoimpressandroserapidlythroughthecompany,gainingmoreandmoreresponsibility.”句意:
他继续给公司留下深刻印象并迅速成长,获得越来越多的责任,由此可见:
卡耐基应该是被放到更高的位置。
故选B。
6.细节理解题,根据“Heinvestedintheironindustryandeventuallysetupinbusinesshimself,owningseveralironandsteelplants.Thiswaswherehemadehisfortune.”句意:
他投资了钢铁行业,最终自己建立了自己的企业,拥有数家钢铁和钢铁工厂。
这就是他发财的地方,故选C。
7.主旨大意题,综合全文主要讲述了卡耐基从贫穷一步一步努力取得成功的故事,所以C选项:
FromRagstoRiches:
TheStoryofAndrewCarnegie,从贫穷到富有,安德鲁卡耐基的故事,这个标题比较合适,故选C。
