29、 are responsible for transporting your luggage. If you cannot recover it at the point of arrival, you must inform the airline immediately. They will carry out the necessary search. If the luggage is recovered, it will be delivered to your place of residence. If you wish to insure your luggage, you m
30、ay do so at your own expense. Some airlines restrict luggage weight to 44 pounds (20 kg); in other cases, there is no weight restriction, but you are not allowed more than two pieces of luggage.

33、gage with the name and address of the institution you are to attend in Canada. If none of these details are available, you can use CIDA“s address.(分数:20.00)(1).If you can“t find your luggage at the point of arrival, airline companies will try to find it and _.(分数:4.00)A.ask you to insure your luggag
34、eB.inform you about its recovery C.deliver it to where you liveD.ask you to pay some money for it解析:解析 根据题目中的 at the point of arrival 定位到第一段第二句。该句谈到如果在到达目的地后找不到行李,必须立即告知航空公司;第三、四句则说,航空公司会负责必要的寻找工作,并且会在找到后送达你的住所。B 项的 where you live 与文中的 your place of residence 同义,故为正确答案。A 项借用文中的 insure 作干扰,第一段最后一句谈到如
35、果你想要为行李投保,则需要自己支付费用,这与题目所问的问题无关。C 项的说法虽然按照常理也可以成立,但是文中没有提及此项内容,所以不选。此外,文中没有提到航空公司帮你找行李需要付款的情况,排除 D 项。(2).Before taking your air trip, you have to make sure _.(分数:4.00)A.of the restriction on luggage B.who will pay for the excess luggageC.of the insurance for luggageD.how much CIDA will pay for the e
36、xcess luggage解析:解析 四个选项都涉及 luggage 的问题,根据选项定位到第二段。该段一开始就提出航空公司对行李的数量和重量有限制(restriction)并且各个航空公司有不同的规定,接着建议乘客在旅行前向航空公司询问关于行李的限额事宜(Inquire about luggage allowances)。所以推知 A 项为正确答案。 第一段最后一句提到,为行李投保是自费的,不必再去询问,故 B 项错误。第二段最后一句表明超额的行李需要由乘客自己付费,CIDA 不会补偿这些费用,所以 C 项和 D 项都已有说明,没有必要再去询问。(3).The charge for the
37、excess luggage should be paid by _.(分数:4.00)A.CIDAB.the insurance company C.the passengerD.the executing agency解析:解析 根据题目中的 excess luggage 定位到第二段最后一句。该句中的 you 指的是乘客,因此是由乘客自己支付,选 B 项。 第二段最后一句后半句明确提到超额行李的费用不会由 CIDA 来补偿,排除 A 项。C 项和 D 项与本题毫无关系。(4).In case you have no idea at all where to send your lugga
38、ge, you can send it to the address of _.(分数:4.00)A.the institution you are to attendB.the airline you travel withC.the Canadian International Development Agency D.the executive agency given in the Training Agreement解析:解析 本题询问如果你完全不知道应该把行李送往何处,你可以把它送到哪个地址。全文最后一句话表明,如果你对上述地址(指执行机构和要参加机构的地址)都不清楚,也可以使用
39、CIDA(加拿大国际开发总署)的地址。所以 C 项为正确答案。 D 项出现在第三段,是在不知道准确目的地址的情况下用的地址。A 项则是在不知道执行机构地址的情况下用的地址。它们和 C 项属于递进关系。B 项在文中并没有提及。(5).The passage is mainly about CIDA“s advice on _.(分数:4.00)A.the charge of your luggageB.the insurance of your luggage C.the handling of your luggageD.the transportation of your luggage解析
40、:解析 文章第一段是关于行李丢失方面的措施以及投保的规定;第二段是关于行李的限额和付费方面的规定;第三和四段都是关于行李的运送地址的建议。总而言之,CIDA 是在说明如何把行李运送到一定地址,即如何处理你的行李,因此 B 项与其他各项相比最具有概括性,为正确答案。 A 项和 C 项分别在第二段和第一段中出现,是文章的一个部分,不能概括全文。D 项按常理也是处理行李的一个步骤,应该侧重于运输的机构和运输过程中一些事宜,不能代表全部程序。三、Task 2(总题数:1,分数:20.00)Terms and Conditions of EmploymentThese terms and conditi

Clothing: The Supplies Department provides overalls (工作服). Inform Supplies of your size two days before you need them
45、. You can also order any other equipment you need for your job from Supplies.(分数:20.00)(1).According to the contract, the salary of the employee _.(分数:4.00)A.is paid weeklyB.is re-examined from year to yearC.is adjusted every quarter D.is fixed for the whole contract period解析:解析 根据题目中的 salary 定位到 Sa
46、lary 的条款。在“工资”条款中,有 this is reviewed annually 的字眼,其中 annually(每年)等同于 yearly,every year 或 from year to year。C 项中的from year to year 对应 annually,re-examined 对应 reviewed,为正确答案。 A 项中的 weekly(周)、B 项中的 quarter(季度)和 D 项 the whole contract period(整个合同期)文中均未提及,故排除。(2).If employees have any health problem, the
47、y should _.(分数:4.00)A.telephone the factoryB.report to their line manager C.inform the Senior NurseD.contact the health and safety officer解析:解析 根据题目中的 health problem 定位到 Health and Safety 的条款。在“健康与安全”条款中,第三句提到,如有健康问题(have health problems),请告知高级护士(inform the Senior Nurse)克里斯托马斯。因此 B 项为正确答案。 员工只有因病不能工
48、作的时候,才应该电话告知工厂,排除 A 项。向生产经理报到是新员工在第一天上班的时候,排除 C 项。D 项的表述是员工对于所附安全规章有疑问时的情况,也可排除。(3).The line manager is responsible for _.(分数:4.00)A.giving a pay raiseB.arranging annual leaveC.signing a contract D.helping with personal affairs解析:解析 题目中的 line manager 分别出现在 Hours、Annual leave 和 Overtime 这三项条款。其中在“年假”
49、条款中的最后一句谈到,休年假要与生产经理一起安排。由此可见 C 项为正确答案。 文章并没有谈及员工加薪、签合同和处理私人事务的事情,故 A 项、B 项和 D 项都无依据。(4).If employees work on public holidays, usually they will get _.(分数:4.00)A.extra days offB.a pay raise C.extra moneyD.paid holidays解析:解析 根据题目中的 work on public holidays 定位到 Overtime 的条款第三句。根据该句的表述,可以推知员工能享受加班费(will be paid)。换句话说,可以获得额外收入,故 B 项为正确答案。 Overtime 条款的最后一句谈到,员工可以选择将加班费和公共假日加班折算为额外休息日,但这个不是一般情况,而是要员工另外提出的,故排除 A 项。加薪的情况在文中没有提及,C 项无依据。文中只是说加班费和公共假日加班折算为额外休息日,是否
