2、ng at the company after graduation.However, balancing graduate studies with work was challenging. To deal with it, I checked my real self at my office door. I came in to work, greeted my colleagues and listened more than I contributed in each morning meeting. The small team I worked with often seeme

3、d busy, so rather than giving ideas that might get turned down, I stayed back.After four months, my boss called me into his office. The meeting was going well until he told me that despite the great work I had produced, the team had held a meeting and decided, “We dont think its the right fit.”I mus

4、t have looked confused.“Youre ambitious, intelligent and will be very successful， ” my boss said. “But you havent made enough effort to join the team. You lost the enthusiasm you showed in your interview. That wont work long term, and if I could give you one piece of advice, it would be to get your

5、guard down.” I couldnt believe that performing well at my job wasnt enough to keep it. But I knew my boss was right. They knew that when they hired me, I had no experience in finance reporting, yet they took a chance on me. In meetings I usually contributed last, after I had heard everyone elses sug

6、gestions.I did it to show that I was a listener, but also to hide my fears. They liked the person who walked into the interview, and they didnt respect me when I hid that person from them.“Dont leave before you leave.” That advice is essential for women at all stages of our careers. Because we work

8、oals.【文章大意】 本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。 “我”在公司工作，在团队里， “我”辛苦勤奋，所在的团队也紧张忙碌，但是“我”害怕表达自己的主张和建议。老板在肯定了“我”的成绩的同时，建议“我”勇于表达自己的主张，分享个人的建议。【难句分析】The small team I worked with often seemed busy，so rather than giving ideas that might get turned down，I stayed back.(第二段最后一句)分析：这是一个复合句。句中 I worked with为省略了关系词的定语从句，修饰先行词 The smal

9、l team；句中 that might get turned down为 that引导的定语从句，修饰先行词 ideas。译文：我工作所在的小团队常常看起来很忙碌，所以我没有把那些可能遭到拒绝的想法表达出来，而是退到后面。1Why was the author offered a job at the company at first?AShe just got her masters degree in finance.BShe greatly impressed her boss in her first month.CShe had quite a lot of experience

10、in finance reporting.DShe showed her special financial talent while working there.答案与解析：B考查细节理解。根据第一段第三句“I got a great onemonth review and my boss asked if I was interested in staying at the company after graduation.”可知，在第一个月的工作中， “我”获得了很高的评价，给老板留下了深刻的印象，故老板决定聘用“我” 。故 B项正确。2During her next four mont

12、ked with often seemed busy, so rather than giving ideas that might get turned down，I stayed back.”，并结合第四段倒数第二句“I did it to show that I was a listener，but also to hide my fears”可知， “我”工作所在的团队常常看起来很忙碌，“我”担心自己的建议或想法遭到拒绝，所以只愿做一个倾听者。据此可知，由于缺乏自信， “我”害怕表达自己的想法，故 D项正确。3What does the author intend to tell us

13、 in the passage?AWe should always keep up our enthusiasm at work.BExpertise and experience are greatly valued in the workplace.3CWe should not shy away from sharing our ideas when working in a team.DIts unwise of women to show themselves off when they are taking part in teamwork.答案与解析：C考查目的意图。文章第二段描

14、述了“我”辛苦勤奋，所在的团队紧张忙碌，第三、四段讲述老板对“我”工作的评价：虽然辛苦努力，但是“我”缺乏在团队中建言献策的自信和勇气，并不能赢得团队的尊敬。据此可以判断，本文旨在告诉读者在团队工作中不要畏避表达自己的观点，故 C项正确。BFidel Castro was born at his fathers farm on August 13, 1926.
