2、satisfactory; it wasnt good enough. Sometimes he would leave a job unfinished, and never come back to complete it. Other times, his writing would be so illegible that you couldnt read it. Or he might disappear from the office for an hour or so with no explanation of where he had been. Once or twice

3、he sat unoccupied for a while, doing nothing at all, until someone noticed him and gave him some work.

8、9、10句。这几句大意是“问题是，他做的很多工作都不令人满意，做得都不够好。有些时候，他不能工作做了一般就不做了。还有些时候，他的字迹太潦草了，别人都无法辨认。或者，他干脆不打招呼的从办公室消失个把小时。有一两次，他坐在那里无所事事，直到有人注意到他然后告诉他要做写什么。”据此可知答案是C（他没有责任心）。A的意思是“他不受大家欢迎。”B的意思是“他没有能力。”D的意思是“他做事太慢。”H.2A.词汇题。本提问“文章中的illegible这个词的意思是_。”解决词汇题的思路是要找到该词语出现的那个句子，一般句子当中会有解释。如果该句无法提供足够的信息来解决问题，那么我们可以再看一看其前后句。据

9、此，我们先找到“illegible”出现的句子。该句大意是“还有些时候，他的字迹太_，别人都无法辨认。”据此，我们可以判断这个年轻人的字迹肯定是不太好认的，所以答案就是A（很难或者无法辨认）。B的意思是“容易辨认”，C的意思是“很容易书写”，D的意思是“很难或者无法书写”。I.3A.是非题。本题问“我们从文章中可以得知，下面那件事情作者没有做？”是非题要求我们首先得浏览选项。A的意思是“错误的判断这个年轻人”，B的意思是“给了这个年轻人很多机会来展示自己的能力”，C的意思是“观察这个年轻人的工作表现”，D的意思是“解释为什么必须要解雇这个年轻人”。A的中心词是“misjudge”，但是文章的倒

10、数第四句表明作者他们并没有错误的判断这个年轻人，所以A就是我们的答案。B的中心词是“every chance to show what he could do”，答案在文章的倒数第5句，这句话表明作者他们确实给了这个人很多机会，所以B不是我们的答案。而做完了上面的第1题，我们也可以轻松判定C和D不是此题的答案。J.4D.细节题。本题问“告诉这个年轻人被解雇了，作者感到_。”中心词是“tell the young man he had lost the job”。经过定位，我们发现答案在倒数第2句。该句大意是“我必须承认，告诉这个年轻人他被解雇的消息令我感到不舒服。”据此可知答案是D。K.5B.

11、细节题。本题问“谁将会在下周接替这个年轻人的职位？”中心词是“take the young mans place”，答案在最后一句，该句大意是“一个职业介绍所已经给我们介绍了一个人，这个人在下周就会接替那个年轻人的职位。”据此可知答案是B。二、单项选择题（共15道小题，共75.0分） 1.I was dismayed_ the thought of teaching algebra and geometry.A.for B.of C.by D.at 知识点:第一部分学生答案:D;标准答案:D;得分:5试题分值:5.0提示:该题选D，题目大意是“一想到要教代数和几何这两门课，我就感到很害怕。”a
