【题目】原文填空(每空只写一词)
In Britain and the USA, the managing directors 【1】 presidents of big companies are often 【2】 of being ‘fat cats’, i.e. bosses 【3】 salaries are often twenty-five times more than the company’s 【4】 worker. When times are hard and workers are 【5】 off, they receive very little. Departing directors, on the other hand, get big golden【6】. 【7】 contrast, in Japan the ratio between the 【8】 and lowest paid is normally a more modest seven or eight to one. In 【9】, large Japanese companies have the 【10】of taking care of all their employees, and the concept of a ‘job for life’ is still, by and large, true.
【答案】
【1】or
【2】accused
【3】whose
【4】lowest-paid
【5】laid
【6】handshakes
【7】By
【8】highest
【9】addition
【10】reputation
【解析】
本文是说明文,介绍了在有些国家,员工之间的薪酬差距很大。在美国和英国,最高薪酬是最低薪酬的25倍;在日本,最高薪酬和最低薪酬的比例通常是7:1或8:1。
【1】考查连词。句意:在英国和美国,大公司的董事总经理或总裁经常被指责是有钱有势的人。the managing directors和 presidents都是指公司的高级职位,是并列成分,因此用连词or。故填or。
【2】考查被动语态。句意:在英国和美国,大公司的董事总经理或总裁经常被指责是有钱有势的人。句子的主语the managing directors or presidents和accuse之间是逻辑上的被动关系;前面有be动词are,因此用过去分词表示被动语态;短语 be accused of “被指责为,被指控为”。故填accused。
【3】考查定语从句。句意:也就是说,老板的工资通常是公司最低工资员工的25倍。分析句子结构,此处是定语从句,修饰先行词bosses,在从句中作定语,可理解为“老板的(薪水)”,应用whose引导定语从句。故填whose。
【4】考查形容词。句意:也就是说,老板的工资通常是公司最低工资员工的25倍。修饰名词worker 应该用形容词;lowest-paid是形容词,意为“报酬最低的”,符合句意。故填lowest-paid。
【5】考查固定短语和被动语态。句意:当困难的时候,工人被解雇,他们得到的很少。短语 lay sb.off “让某人下岗”,被动形式为 (sb.)be laid off “被下岗,被解雇”;主语workers 和lay之间是逻辑上的被动关系;前面有be动词are,因此用过去分词表示被动语态;lay是不规则变化动词,过去分词为laid。故填laid。
【6】考查名词。句意:另一方面,即将离任的董事们会得到丰厚的退职金。在形容词后应该用名词做get的宾语;handshakes是名词,golden handshakes意为:退职金,符合句意。故填handshakes。
【7】考查固定短语。句意:相比之下,在日本,收入最高和最低的比例通常是不太大的7:1或8:1。短语by contrast“相比之下,对比之下”,符合句意。故填By。
【8】考查形容词最高级。句意:相比之下,在日本,收入最高和最低的比例通常是不太大的7:1或8:1。and是并列连词,后面是形容词最高级lowest,根据句意,前面用形容词最高级highest。故填highest。
【9】考查固定短语。句意:此外,日本大公司以关心所有员工著称。短语in addition 意为“此外,而且”,符合句意。故填addition。
【10】考查固定短语。句意:句意:此外,日本大公司以关心所有员工著称。短语have the reputation of“有…名声/声誉”, 符合句意。故填reputation。

【题目】 Let's face it: The last hour of anyone's workday is not always fruitful. As the hours of peak productivity start to decline, most people begin watching the clock, waiting for nothing.【1】“How positively you end your professional day can promote success both inside and outside of the office,” says Randi Levin, a transitional life strategist. Let's see how successful people end their workday with a bang.
Successful people reflect on their accomplishments. While many of us spend our last hour of work making a to-do list for tomorrow, they review the day they just had, instead.【2】Similarly, Levin recommends writing down the day's wins rather than setbacks or to-dos, as well as reviewing your list of successes once a month. It will prove your professional growth and bring more joy into your job.
Also, successful people brainstorm solutions for today's setbacks.【3】Instead, they end their day by thinking carefully about the problems they met, brainstorming possible solutions, and then leaving it for tomorrow. They will settle those problems after a good night's sleep.
【4】Rather than detailing the tasks that need to get done, this kind of list encourages people to focus on finding solutions for their projects. “Forget the horrible 'to-do' list,” Levin says, “before heading to happy hour, write down three to five goals you have for the next 24 hours.【5】It will provide you with not only a concrete and positive way to begin tomorrow, but also it will allow you to see much more possibilities.”
A.This list is a promise to yourself.
B.Successful people make a to-do list.
C.It will make people understand the problems better.
D.They never bring the day's failures home with them.
E.Another work these people do is to create an action list.
F.But ending the workday with purpose can make a difference.
G.They typically choose a case and consider what led to that success.

【题目】 As anyone who freelances (做自由职业) knows,there are lots of advantages of working at home alone. But there are drawbacks too,like the potential loneliness. No wonder coworking spaces are becoming so popular:they permit selfemployed individuals to feel like they are part of all office environment,while making them get some work done too. But renting a coworking space does cost money.
Now a Swedish project is aiming to change that by turning people’s underused homes into temporary coworking spaces,available to freelancers for free. Hoffice was started by freelancers Christofer Gradin Franzen and Johline Zandra about a year ago in Stockholm when they invited a few people into their home office to work together. It was a great success,and the project has since spread to a number of cities in Europe,North and South America,Australia,India and Japan. Anyone can sign up and offer their home space as a free coworking space,or go to find a Hoffice near them.
On a Hoffice day,everyone arrives and starts work at a certain hour. After 45 minutes,everyone gets up to take a break,stretch,do qigong or yoga for 10 to 15 minutes. Afterwards,people can gather around again,and restate their intentions and goals for the rest of the work day,as a way to motivate each other. Meals can be eaten together at a certain hour,potluckstyle (家常饭) or by bringing your own lunch.
This process creates an encouraging and supportive work environment. As some freelancers describe,“By working at Hoffice,we give ourselves and each other the gift to spend our days in a social working environment,where we are extremely productive without ignoring our other human needs. We also make sure to give us and each other what we need to feel calm,happy,inspired and creative during the working day.”
So Hoffice is not just about sharing space;it’s also about a free exchange of ideas. And perhaps the best thing is that Hoffices are free to use.
【1】What does the underlined word “drawbacks” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A.mistakesB.disadvantages
C.difficultiesD.burdens
【2】What do we know about Hoffice according to the text?
A.It is becoming increasingly popular.
B.It has been around for quite a few years.
C.It has created many new job opportunities.
D.It is suitable for people from all walks of life.
【3】What’s the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A.How people respond to Hoffice.
B.How a Hoffice day works.
C.What people share at Hoffice.
D.What Hoffice means to people.
【4】Some freelancers’ descriptions of Hoffice suggest that they .
A.benefit a lot from the working style
B.work longer than before
C.expect more people to join them
D.can’t be separated from each other
