解析
小题1:名词辨析。指出“大多数重要的职业都需要一定的专业培训”,故此空应指对“职业”的选择。
小题2:副词辨析。根据上下文出现的两个对应副词Ideally (理想地),Actually(实际上)可知两句存在对立关系.含有转折意义。
小题3:副词辨析。A彻底地;B主要地;C完全地;D部分地;前半句陈述现象,后半句分析原因。根据下文的partly to improve,可知D正确。
小题4:形容词辨析。根据上下文可知这里的their是指前面提及的most people。
小题5:上下文串联。根据句意“因此,年轻人应该……广泛灵活的培训计划”.
小题6:词义辨析。由后文的“一个领域的工作”和“某项工作”,可知年轻人参加培训的目的是为了“适应”工作.因此B为答案。fit sb.for意为“使适合”。
小题7:上下文串联。所填的词应与work对等呼应
小题8:介词辨析。根据上下文可知这里应该使用否定词与Unfortunately形成呼应。
小题9:上下文串联。由Unfortunately可知空格处应填表否定意义的词,know little about表示“对……知之甚少”
小题10:名词辨析。名词basis与介词on连用。
小题11:动词辨析。others…则为另一种现象,应与drift相反,即死抱着不喜欢的工作,选D。
小题12:代词辨析。这里的it指代前面的an occupation。
小题13:动词辨析。根据句意可知是没有认识到…,忽视了…
小题14:名词辨析。专业性职业领域对教育和个人能力要求相对较高,requirements“要求”符合。
小题15:上下文串联。前两句讲选择职业时的常见错误,此处句意顺承上文,应填入否定词,表示有声誉的职业和白领职业并不能成为择业的原因。
小题16:副词辨析。空格后面一句话继续对这样的选择予以否定.表达的是一种递进关系,有逗号隔开。
小题17:上下文串联。根据句意可知大部分年轻人要认真考虑这些领域。
小题18:名词辨析。空格所在的句子与前面的句子构成因果关系(since).故空格处填入的词大意思应为“考虑,思考”,
小题19:上下文串联。由he wants与life可知,是“从生活中想得到的”之义.故选B。
小题20:名词辨析。由一些人希望有安全感和另一些人想得到金钱上的回报,可推知填入的词应与security“安全”相反,故选C。take risks“冒风险”。
考点
据考高分专家说,试题“Most worthwhile care.....”主要考查你对 [日常生活类阅读 ]考点的理解。日常生活类阅读
日常生活类阅读的概念:
日常生活这一话题主要涉及人们衣食住行等方面的活动。这一话题的选材主要针对人们日常的工作,生活以及学习情况。做这一类题时,最主要的是要把握好人物的活动内容,时间和地点。
日常生活类阅读题答题技巧:
【题型说明】
该类文章内容涉及到人们的言谈举止、生活习惯、饮食起居、服饰仪表、恋爱婚姻、消遣娱乐、节日起源、家庭生活等。文章篇幅短小,追根溯源,探索各项风俗的历史渊源,内容有趣。命题也以送分题为主,如事实细节题、语义转换题、词义猜测题和简单推理判断题等。虽然这类文章读起来感觉轻松,试题做起来比较顺手,但绝不能掉以轻心。因为稍不留神,就会丢分。
【备考提醒】
为了保证较高准确率,建议同学们做好以下几点:
1、保持正常的考试心态。笔者在教学中发现,越是容易的试题,同学们越是容易失分。为什么呢?因为在这种情况下,同学们极易产生麻痹思想,认为题目好做,就不引起高度重视,于是思维不发散、不周密。而命题人就是利用同学们的这一弱点,设计陷阱题。所以,无论试题难易与否,我们都要保持正常的考试心态。试题容易,不欣喜;试题难,不悲观。
2、根据前面讲到的方法,认认真真、细细心心做好事实细节题。
3、做好语义转换题。这类题是根据英语中一词多义和某些词语在文中能表达一定的修辞意义的原则而设计的。要求同学们解释某生词的含义,确定多义词或短语在文中的意思,确认文中的某个代词所指代的对象,或者对英语中特有的表达、格言、谚语进行解释。这种题要求同学们一定要根据上下文猜测词义或理解句子,切不可望文生义。
4、做好简单推理判断题。简单推理判断题要以表面文字为前提,以具体事实为依据进行推理,做出判断。这种推理方式比较直接,只要弄清事实,即可结合常识推断出合理的结论。
