Acompare Bresponsible Cuseful Dadded Efind Freference Gindirect Hmethod Isuccessful Jcombined KNecessarily Lcapacity Mability NBasically Oadopt Answers: 1.选B 此处应填形容词。原
16、文意思为“会计部门.计算报酬”,选项中的形容词responsible“负责任的”,useful“有用的”,indirect“间接的”,successful“成功的”,其中indirect不能与for连用,排除;剩余几项中只有B)responsible意义符合原句,其他均不符合,故排除。 2.选O 此处应填动词原形。本文主题就是采用一种新的工资和薪水制度时需要注意的问题,选项中的动词原形有compare“比较”,find“找到”,adopt“采纳”,分别带入原文,只有adopt最符合原文意思,故选O). 3.选H 此处应填名词。从原文看,and连接并列结构,所以要填的词应与and后面的ways意
17、思一致,选项中的名词只有mathod = ways,故选H)method。 4.选I 此处应填形容词。上文说新的工资制度需要一套决定工作评估和衡量雇员表现的方法,说的是制度“是否有用”的问题。这句说的时新的工资制度执行过程中的问题,劳资双方先期达成一致是薪酬制度成功的必要条件。形容词useful和successful,I)seccessful更符合原文意思。 5.选D 此处应填动词。这个动词的宾语是point“分值”,把分值.起来to give a total value得出总分值,选项中有added和combined,前者指“把.相加”,后者意为“把.结合在一起”,原文指将分值相加得出总分,
18、故D)added最符合文意。 6.选M 此处应填名词。首先solve problem“解决问题”是经理们应具备的能力,选项中的capacity与ability都可以表示“能力”;前者强调的是理解的能力和接受事物的能力,而后者强调实际应用的能力,故不难判断解决问题的能力应该用M)ability。 7.选F 此处应填名词。前半句指出“因为管理工作很难评估,经理的工作得分不需要参照基于分值的评估系统决定。”without reference to为固定搭配,意思是“与.无关”。故选F)reference。 8.选A 此处应填动词原形。原句中出现了the value of each job“每种工作的
19、价值”和these in the job market“工作市场上的(工作价值)”,说明人事部门通过比较两种价值来计算工资制度。选项中只有compare表示“比较”,所以A)正确。 9.选K 此处应填副词,修饰整句话。“报酬要随工作表现各方面的不同而有所改变”,选项中Necessarily“必须地”与Basically“基本地”为副词,分别带入原文,“报酬.的变化是必须的”更符合上下文意思,故排除N),选K)。 10.选G 此处应填形容词。前文中提到一种情况即simple to measure the work done易于评估的工作,通常用现金奖励办法;而.measurement is di
20、fficult“难于评估的”,说明这些工作人员的工作不像手工工作那么直接,因而是间接的,故选项中只有G)indirect符合原句的意思。Many a young person tells me he wants to be a writer.

25、.选K)。 此处应填动词的原形。可选项有doubt, persuade, encourage, 但由always推知,作者是在鼓励那些想要成为作家的人,而不是怀疑也不是说服,故排除doubt和persuade而选encourage。 2.选N)。由空格后的fame可知,此处应填名词。可选项有prospects和wealth,但由dreaming of 与第二段中The reality is. poor-paying可推知,那些想当作家的人梦想的是金钱和名誉,而不是前途,故排除prospects而选wealth。 3.选E)。此处应填形容词,private, poor-paying一起修饰aff
26、air。选项中有lonely和alone,能修饰affair的只有lonely,alone表示“孤独的”时,通常作表语,故排除alone而选lonely。 4.选C)。此处应填动词的被动形式。可选项有rewarded和awarded,前者可表示“(为所希望的举动得到的)回报”,后者作动词时表示“颁发,授予”,故只有rewarded符合题意而排除awarded。 5.选H)。此处应填名词。“当我辞别了我在美国海岸警卫队20年工作成为一个自由撰稿人时,没有任何.可言”,可选项有prospects和wealth,但wealth一般指抽象意义上的“金钱”,因此排除wealth而选prospects“前
27、途”。 6.选O)。it指代的是apartment building,从had no bathroom可知这个公寓条件很差,选项中只有cold能说明公寓的条件差,故选择O)cold。 7.选B)。“我马上买了一台旧的手动打字机,感觉自己就好像是一个.的作家”,由前面提到的to become a freelance writer可推知,此处作者是想成为一个真正的作家,故选项中只有genuine“真正的”符合题意。 8.选D)。由空格前的to可知,此处应填动词的原形。可选项有doubt,persuade,encourage,但由still hadnt gotten a break在写作上还没有任何
28、进展”,所以此处应理解为他开始怀疑自己的选择是否正确,故doubt符合文意。 9.选A)。that从句结构完整,后面有made,故此处应填副词。可选项有barely和impossibly,因that引导的从句是对story的解释,再由hard一词可推知,此处应填的副词应表达肯定的意思,故排除impossibly而选barely“仅仅,刚刚”。 10.选I)。由空格后的and可知,此处应填名词。由fear of failure可知,所填词应表示不好的境遇,可选项有poverty和uncertainty;又由fear可推知,此处强调的是生活的变化无常,而不是生活的贫困,故选uncertainty。
