C.D.解析:解析 考查动词辨析。本文主要讲企业扩展时的劳动力资源问题。选项的宾语 that指代上文提及的“唯一目标(sole objective)”,故只有 Bachieving“达到,完成”为正确答案。其余选项不与object
27、ive搭配:completing“完成,结束”,implementing“贯彻,实现(计划等)”,fulfilling“完成,履行(任务等)”。(2).A. first B. initially C. originally D. ahead(分数:2.50)A. B.C.D.解析:解析 考查副词辨析。first and foremost 是固定词组,意为“首先,第一”。其余选项均不适用:initially“起初,在开始时”,originally“原先,新颖地”,ahead“在前方”。(3).A. inertia B. aggravation C. crisis D. expansion(分数:
28、2.50)A.B.C.D. 解析:解析 考查名词辨析。段首句已提到多数企业要通过扩大规模(expansion)或建新厂(a new facility)打入新市场,下文提到失业率下降(sent unemployment levels in the U.S. to.lows),可见经济目前处于繁荣发展时期,故选 Dexpansion“扩展,发展”。其余选项均不合文意:inertia“隋性,惯性”,aggravation“加剧,恶化”,crisis“危机”。(4).A. file B. record C. document D. report(分数:2.50)A.B. C.D.解析:解析 考查名词辨
29、析。本句中 lows作名词,意为“低水平”,record lows“创纪录的低水平,前所未有的低水平”,类似的常用词组还有 a new low(最低点),a record high(最高水平)等。其余选项均不能修饰 lows:file“档案,文件”,document“文件,文献”,report“报告,汇报”。(5).A. within B. above C. beyond D. below(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D. 解析:解析 考查介词辨析。句首表示递进的副词 Indeed表明本句应进一步说明上句的观点,即失业率低于 6%,故选 Dbelow。其余选项均不合文意。(6).A. expe
30、lling B. desiring C. competing D. anticipating(分数:2.50)A.B.C. D.解析:解析 考查动词辨析。本题考动词的用法,四个选项中只有 Ccompeting“竞争”是不及物动词,需要与介词 for连用。其余选项均不适用:expelling“驱逐,开除,排除”,desiring“渴望,要求”,anticipating“预见,预料”。(7).A. As B. With C. While D. Since(分数:2.50)A.B. C.D.解析:解析 考查连词辨析。本句中 chasing是现在分词作状语,so many companies 是其逻辑
31、主语,这种独立结构常由介词 with引导。as,while 和 since都是连词,在此均不适用。因此选 B项。(8).A. stakes B. odds C. dangers D. status(分数:2.50)A. B.C.D.解析:解析 考查名词辨析。stakes 意为“赌注,利害关系”,常与 high搭配使用,high stakes 即“利害攸关”。odds“机会,不平等,差异”和 dangers“危险”不用 high修饰;status“地位,身份”是单数名词。(9).A. utilization B. efficiency C. education D. availability(分
32、数:2.50)A.B.C.D. 解析:解析 考查名词辨析。从全文主题,尤其是 unemployment,chasing the workforce 等相关词汇的使用,可以推断出企业面临的重要问题是能否得到合适的劳动力(labor)。Davailability 是available的派生词,意为“可获得,能得到”,符合文意。其余选项均不适用:utilization“利用,使用”,efficiency“效率,功效”,education“教育”。(10).A. rational B. favorable C. affordable D. imaginable(分数:2.50)A.B.C. D.解析:
33、解析 考查形容词辨析。对雇用单位而言,愿支付的工资应当是“负担得起的”:Caffordable由 afford(买得起,付得起)派生而来,是正确选择。其余选项均不符合文意:rational“理性的,合理的”,favorable“有利的,赞许的,顺利的”,imaginable“能够想到的”。(11).A. regulate B. reverse C. relocate D. respond(分数:2.50)A.B.C. D.解析:解析 考查动词辨析。relocate 从本句中 existing employees(现有的雇员)和 anew facility(一个新场所)以及下文 moving等词
34、可推知,这里讲的是大批雇员的重新安置问题:Crelocate由 locate(位于,使坐落于)派生而来,意为“建于新地方,迁建,迁徙于新地点”,符合文意。其余选项与文意无关,regulate“调整,调节,控制”,reverse“倒转,颠倒”,respond“响应,答复”。(12).A. difficult B. profitable C. necessary D. beneficial(分数:2.50)A. B.C.D.解析:解析 考查形容词辨析。difficult 从本段支持句的举例可看出,主题句讲重新安置雇员有困难才合逻辑,故选 Adifficult。其余选项均不符合文意。profitab
35、le“能获利的,有利可图的”,necessary“必要的,必需的”,beneficial“有利的,有益的”。(13).A. Besides B. However C. Thus D. Therefore(分数:2.50)A. B.C.D.解析:解析 考查逻辑关系。本题考对上下文逻辑的理解。从本段的三个细节句同段首句的关系,以及下文表示列举的过渡词 Finally可判断出,本句同上文的内容没有矛盾,故排除 However,Thus 和Therefore表示因果关系,也不合文意。只有 ABesides“此外,再者”表示列举或递进,是正确选择。(14).A. set B. put C. bent D
36、. paid(分数:2.50)A.B. C.D.解析:解析 考查动词辨析。stay put 是固定词组,意为“停留在原处”,与下文 to maintain.roots相符。其余选项不合文意。(15).A. households B. employees C. executives D. laborers(分数:2.50)A. B.C.D.解析:解析 考查名词辨析。作者提到的造成雇员迁徙难的第三个原因是双收入(dual-income,即夫妻都工作)家庭越来越多,人们怕影响家庭已有的经济安排(the family financial arrangement)。Ahouseholds 是 famil
37、y的同义词,在此与文意相符。其余选项均不合逻辑。employees“雇员”,executives“总经理,董事,行政人员”,laborers“体力劳动者”。(16).A. agitate B. disperse C. disturb D. overthrow(分数:2.50)A.B.C. D.解析:解析 考查动词辨析。本题考动宾搭配。只有 disturb“打乱,干扰”可与 arrangement搭配使用。其余选项均不适用:agitate“搅动(液体),使烦乱,扰乱,煽动”,disperse“驱散,解散”,overthrow“推翻,颠覆”。(17).A. tied B. confined C.
38、restricted D. stuck(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D. 解析:解析 考查动词辨析。stuck 是 stick(粘贴)的过去分词,be/get stuck with 是固定词组,意为“无法摆脱”,在此符合文意“这意味着你只能利用你所选地点现有的劳动力资源(labor pool)”。be confined和 be restricted都有“受限制”的意思,但一般要接介词 by表示施动者,或接介词 to表示限制的范围;be tied to. 意为“束缚于,捆绑于”,be tied by/with 意为“被捆绑”。(18).A. But for B. As to C. Even th
39、ough D. Only if(分数:2.50)A.B. C.D.解析:解析 考查短语辨析。作者在讲完有什么样的劳动力资源之后接着讲所需人数,As to 意为“至于”,起承接上文的作用。Even though“尽管”和 Only if“除非,只有”后面都需接句子;But for“若非”不合文意。因此选 B项。(19).A. rule B. regulation C. law D. principle(分数:2.50)A. B.C.D.解析:解析 考查名词辨析。thumb 意为“大拇指”,rule of thumb 是固定词组,意为“按实际经验估计的方法,由经验得来的法则”,符合文意。其余选项都
40、不与 thumb如此搭配:law“法律,法则”,regulation“规则,条例”,principle“原则”。(20).A. employ B. engage C. fill D. adjoin(分数:2.50)A.B.C. D.解析:解析 考查动词辨析。所给动词的逻辑宾语是 position,故选 Cfill“填充,填补”。其余选项均不适用。employ“雇用,使用”,engage“使从事于,雇用”,adjoin“毗连,靠近”。Olobalization can somehow be defined (1) harmonization, homogenization or integrat

47、 versa./(分数:50.00)(1).A. as B. to be C. like D. of(分数:2.50)A. B.C.D.解析:解析 考查固定搭配。define sth. as sth. 是固定用法,意思是“给(词语等)下定义;阐明,解释某事”。其余搭配均不正确。故答案为 Aas。(2).A. economy B. economics C. economic D. economies(分数:2.50)A.B.C.D. 解析:解析 考查名词辨析。economy 为名词,有可数和不可数两种形式,其意思有“(金钱、力气、时间、资源等)节省,节约”。economy 也有“(国家的)经济管
