Migrant Workers
In the past twenty years, there has been an increasing tendency for workers to move from one country to another. __ 1 __ some newly independent countries have understandably restricted most jobs to local people, others have attracted and welcomed migrant workers. This is particularly the case in the Middle East,1 __ 2 __ increased oil incomes have enabled many countries to __ 3 __ outsiders to improve local facilities. __ 4 __ the Middle East has attracted oil-workers from the USA and Europe. It has brought in construction workers and technicians from many countries, __ 5 __ South Korea and Japan.
In view of the difficult living and working conditions in the Middle East, 2 it is not __ 6 __ that the pay is high to attract suitable workers. Many engineers and technicians can earn at least __7__ money in the Middle East as they can in their own country, and this is a major attraction. An allied benefit is the low taxation or complete lack of it. 3 This increases the net amount of pay received by visiting workers and is very popular with them.
Sometimes a disadvantage has a compensating advantage. __ 8__, the difficult living conditions often lead to increased friendship when workers have to depend on each other __ 9 __ safety and comfort. __ 10 __, many migrant workers can save large sums of money partly__ 11 __ the lack of entertainment facilities. The work is often complex and full of problems but this merely presents greater challenge to engineers who prefer to find solutions __ 12 __ problems rather than do routine work in their home country.
One major problem which __ 13 __ migrant workers in the Middle East is that their jobs are temporary ones. They are nearly always on contract, so it is not easy for them to plan ahead with great confidence. This is to be expected since no country welcomes a large number of foreign workers as permanent residents. __ 14 __, migrant workers accept this disadvantage, along with others, because of the __ 15 __ financial benefits which they receive.

移民工人
在过去的20年，工人从一个国家到另一个国家的趋势越来越大。一些刚刚独立的国家把大部分工作留给当地人，这一点是可以理解的，而另一些却吸引和欢迎移民工人。中东地区的情况尤为如此。那里增加的石油收入使很多国家能够召集外面的人来改进本地设施。因此中东吸引了来自美国和欧洲的石油工人。它还从包括韩国和日本的许多国家引入了建筑工人和技师。
由于中东地区艰苦的生活和工作条件，吸引合适的工人的费用是很高的，这不足为奇。许多工程师和技师在中东至少可以挣到他们在自己国家两倍的收入，这是最大的吸引力。一个相关的好处是这里的税收低，或者根本就不收税。这增加了来访工人的净收入，而且很受他们欢迎。
有时一个劣势就有一个补偿的优势。例如，艰苦的生活条件常常导致更深的友谊，因为工人们为了安全和舒适必须互相依赖。同样，许多移民工人能够存很多钱，部分原因是因为那里缺少娱乐设施。工作通常是复杂的，而且充满问题，但是这会向那些更愿解决问题而不是在自己国家里做例行工作的工程师们提出更大的挑战。
影响中东的移民工人的一个主要问题是他们的工作是暂时性的。
他们几乎都是合同工，所以要让他们很有信心地事前做出计划是很难的。人们希望这样，是因为没有一个国家欢迎大量的外国工人作为永久居民。无论如何，移民工人像接受其他不足一样接受这个不足，因为他们得到的是可观的经济利益。

医院的虐待
根据一项研究表明，大多数实习医生从医学院毕业后的第一年开
始都受到过虐待，包括被老资格的医生羞辱、恐吓或是殴打。
这一发现源于对1991年1月寄给1733名第二年信院医生的一份有13页调查问卷的反映分析。这项调查与分析在4月份刊登在《美国医学协会》杂志的15期上。总地来说，1277名住院医生完成了问卷，其中1185人说他们在做实习医生时至少经历过一次虐待。有40%的住院医生说他们曾目睹病人受到其他的住院医生、说病人受虐待是常事。
10%以上的实习医生说他们不允许有足够的睡眠。每周平均连续37.6小时不允许睡觉。一个典型的工作周的应诊时间为56.9小时，但是大约25%的住院医生说他们的应诊任务在有的工作周达到80小时以上。
虽然30%的住院医生说他们经历过某种******或性歧视，谩骂是被提到的最普通的问题。当谩骂事件被限制在三次或三次以上，53%的住院医生说他们被轻视或被资格稍老的住院医生羞辱，而21%以上的住院医生说他们的工作成绩被记到别人的功劳簿上。资深的医生为了惩罚实习医生而给他们分派任务，“被推、被踢、被打”并且有人“威胁你的名誉和职业。”10%以上的被测医生反映这种事更常见。
Many Women Who Beat Cancer Don't Change Habits
Many women who battle breast cancer will tell you it's a life-changing experience. However, a new study shows that for many 1, the changes aren't always positive or permanent1.
Beth Snoke has watched her mother and both grandmothers battle and survive breast 2 .So when she was diagnosed, there was no doubt in her mind 3 she had to do.
"I do exactly what the doctors say as far as the medicine that I'm on, as 4 as the vitamins, the diet, and the fitness. And I can't stress enough 5 important that is,"
says Beth Snoke. But a surprising new study shows that 6 every woman who beats breast cancer is getting that message. In fact, nearly 40% of them say even 7 surviving breast cancer, they haven't made significant changes in the 8 they eat or how much they exercise.
"Not all survivors are taking advantage of this teachable moment and making positive health changes in 9 life," says Electra Paskett, PhD, at Ohio State University's Comprehensive Cancer Center. Paskett says diet and exercise have been proven to not only help women feel better during and after treatment, they may 10 play a role in preventing some cancers from coming back. 11 growing evidence, some women just aren't listening.
"Colon cancer survivors 12 exercise have actually been shown to have improved survival rates. So, yes, it is true that perhaps by making some of these healthy choices we can actually increase their health," says Paskett.
As a breast cancer survivor 13 , Paskett knows first hand how much difference diet and exercise can 14 The challenge, she says, is to get more survivors to be more like Beth, during and after treatment.
Experts say exercising more and eating a healthier diet can also cut 15on2 stress and help women overcome depression. There are more than 2 million breast cancer survivors living in the U.S. Of those, nearly a million have yet to change their diet or exercise routines.

许多战胜癌症的妇女旧习未改
许多与乳腺癌作斗争的妇女会告诉你：这场斗争改变了她们的一生。然而，一项新研究发现，对许多妇女而言，这些变化并非总是正面的或持久的。
贝斯·斯诺克曾目睹母亲、祖母和外祖母战胜乳腺癌的经过。因此，当她诊断出患有乳腺癌时，她心里十分清楚自己该做些什么。
“无论是吃的药、维生素，还是饮食、健身，我都按医生说的去做。这一点特别重要，怎么强调都不为过。”贝斯·斯诺克说道。然而，一项惊人的新研究显示，并非每个战胜乳腺癌的妇女都谨遵医嘱。事实上，近40%的妇女说虽然她们战胜了乳腺癌，但并未在饮食方式或运动量上有多大改变。
俄亥俄州立大学的综合性肿瘤中心的Electra Paskett博士说道：“并非所有的幸存者都有效利用了这个有教育意义的时刻，积极改变生活方式，促进健康。”她也指出，饮食和运动已证明不仅有助于妇女在治疗中和治疗后恢复健康，而且可以防止某些癌症卷土重
来。尽管这样的证据越来越多，但一些妇女就是不听。
“事实表明，那些经常锻炼身体的结肠癌幸存者的存活率已大为提高。因此，如果我们做出一些有益健康的选择，确实可以促进他们的健康。”Paskett说道。
Paskett本人也是一名乳腺癌幸存者，她亲身体会到饮食和运动的作用的确很大。她说，现在面临的挑战是如何让更多的幸存者在治疗中和治疗后都像贝斯一样谨遵医嘱。
专家说加强身体锻炼、饮食更加健康也能缓解压力，有助于妇女消除抑郁症。美国有两百多万名乳腺癌幸存者。其中，近一百万名妇女需要改善她们的饮食或运动习惯。
The Difference between Man and Computer
What makes people different from computer programs? What is the missing element that our theories don't yet (1) ______ for? The answer is simple: People read newspaper stories for a reason: to learn more about (2) ______ they are interested in. Computers, on the other hand, don't.

Of course, people have several goals that do not make (5) ______ to attribute to computers1. One might read a restaurant guide (6) ______ order to satisfy hunger or entertainment goals, or to (7) ______ a good place to go for a business lunch. Computers do not get hungry, and computers do not have business lunches.
However, these physiological and social goals give (8) ______ to several intellectual or cognitive goals. A. goal to
satisfy hunger gives rise to goals to find (9) ______ about the name of a restaurant which (10) ______ the desired type of food, how expensive the restaurant is, the location of the restaurant, etc. These are goals to (11) ______ information or knowledge, what we are calling(12) ______ goals. These goals can be held by computers too; a computer (13) ______ "want" to find out the location of a restaurant, and read a guide in order to do so (14) ______ the same way as a person might. While such a goal would not (15) ______ out of hunger in the case of the computer2, it might well arise out of the "goal" to learn more about restaurants.

答案与题解：
1. C 此处考查对固定搭配的掌握情况，只有account能与for 搭配，意为“解释”，其他三个选项的词都是及物动词，不与介词搭配。
2. C 分析全句，此处应填一个宾语从句的引导词，从句中缺少宾语，故应填what，此句意为“去了解他们所感兴趣的东西”，其他三个选项均为关系副词，不能充当从句中的宾语。
3. B 此处选even加强语气，“事实上，电脑甚至都没有兴趣”。
4. A computer program是常见搭配，意为“电脑程序”，其他选项与句意不符，故排除。
5. B make sense是固定搭配，意思是“有道理，合理，能被理解”。整句的意思为“当然人也有目标，但这些目标若被归在电脑身上便不合逻辑了”。
6. C in order to是固定搭配，表示目的，意为“为了……”，故选C。
7. A 结合上下文我们得知，此处应填具有“寻找”含义的词，watch没有此含义，首先被排除，C 选项后若加上for，便符合文义，search有“搜寻，查找”的含义，但一般指深人彻底地调查，只有A 选项fmd在含义和语气上都符合句意。
8. C 从下一句便可找到答案为C选项，give rise to意为“引起，导致，使发生”。
9. D 选择D意为“找到关于餐馆名字的信息”，其他选项放此处均不合适。
10. D 此处需填一个谓语动词，因此要搞清主语“餐馆”与宾语“食物”之间的关系，只有“餐馆供应食物”合乎逻辑，故答案为serve。
11. A 上文提到了种种人生理的、智力上的、认知的目标，因为饿得到了有关餐馆的信息，因而此处要填“获取”，B, C, D与文意不符。
12. B 此空依然承接上文的意思，那些目标都是获取信息的目标，都是学习的目标，答案为B选项。
13. B 此处缺一个情态动词，阅读到后半句时便很容易选出答案，此处的might与后面as a person might相呼应，表示不确定的推测，意为“可能，也许”。
14. D 能与way搭配的介词一般只有in，表示“以……方式”，此处的含义为“与一个人可能想要做事的方式相同”。
15. A arise out of是固定搭配，意为“起于……”，即使不知道短语的含义，看到后面又出现一次arise out of，也应可以选出答案。

UFOS
Sixty years ago, a man named Kenneth Arnold saw something that we can still(51)today-something that changed popular culture for ever.
Flying his plane over mountains in the US state of Washington, he saw a line of strange objects, either crescent-shaped(月牙形的)or disc-like, flying (52) the motion of a saucer(碟)skimming(飞速掠过)on water.
The media soon picked up on the story - the Flying Saucers were here! Was the earth being(53)by creatures from another planet? Soon, So many sightings were made that the US military began to (54). 1t called these strange Objects UFOs - Unidentified Flying Objects, and that is how they are (55)today.
Military investigations found no evidence of visitors from outer space. But that did not stop the true(56). The military were (57)up, they said. Or maybe it was because the travelers
from space were of such superior intelligence (58)they could hide from military analysts(分析家). People have always seen strange lights in the sky. In the past these were explained in (59)ways. In a world where religion was less influential and science fiction was popular, signs from God were replaced by visitors from other(60).
The date of the first UFO sightings was also significant. In l947, World War II had just ended and the(61)War was just beginning. Humanity seemed locked in endless conflicts. Like generations before them, people looked (62)the skies for help. But instead of seeking God, they looked for help from super-intelligent aliens(外星人)with (63)technology. Belief in UFOs became the first religion of science.
However, even people who believe in UFOs are not quite sure why they visit the earth. The universe is a big place and it is (64)to assume that there is life somewhere out there. It is possible that aliens have worked out how to travel through space. Yet some people report that they have been taken by aliens and have had experiments (65)on them. Why would anyone travel across half the universe to conduct medical experiments on people living in small towns in the United States?

People and Race
During recent years we have heard much about "race": how this race does certain things and that race believes certain things and so on. Yet, the whole phenomenon of race consists of a few surface indications.
We judge race usually (1) the coloring of the skin: a white race, a brown race, a yellow race and a black race. But (2)you were to remove the skin you could not tell anything about the race (3) which the individual belonged. There is nothing in physical structure, the brain or the internal organs to (4)a difference.
There are four types of blood. All types are found in every race, and no type is distinct to any race. Human brains are the same. (5) scientists could examine a brain and tell you the race to which the individual belonged. Brains will (6) in size, but this occurs within every race. (7) does size have anything to do with intelligence. The largest brain once examined belonged
to a person of weak (8).On the other hand, some of our most distinguished people have had (9) brains.
Mental tests which are reasonably true show no differences in intelligence between races. High and low test results both can be (10)by different members of any race. (11)equal educational advantages, there will be no difference in average standings, either on account of race or geographical location.
Individuals of every race (12) civilization to go backward or forward. Training and education can change the response of a group of people, and (13)them to behave in a peculiar way.
The behavior and ideals of people change according to circumstances, but they can always go ahead or go on to something new (14)is better and higher than anything (15)the past.

职称英语考试完形填空解题技巧 1. 三一定律：如果选项当中有三个词同义、意思相近、或者是褒贬色彩一样。那么这种情况下，与这三个选项有区别的那一项99%是正确选项。 2. 如果选项当中有两个选项的词的词形结构有类似的地方，它的不同往往就会带上一些语法标志（如动词的时态、名词的单复数等）。这两个选项当中一定有一个是正确选项，在回到文章当中去比对，就很容易找出正确答案了。那么我们可以排除掉其它两个选项。 3. 如果选项中有两个词同义且有细微的区别，答案必在其中，取范围广者。 4. 如果选项中有两个选项互为反义，答案在其中，回原文找线索。 5. 两个并列动词之间的关系：①中间加to；②后面动词加ing；③加动词原形，前动词是使役动词。 6. 横线后面出现了than，则横线上多半考的就是形容词或副词的比较等级。 7. 选项中某个词在文章的前面或是后面出现过，那么此词很有可能是正确答案。 8. 剩余的实词题就需要根据原文的内容来确定:如果横线前后提到了选项当中提到了选项当中的某个词，那么横线就
极有可能是这个选项。 9. 词义辨析，直接通过四个选项词的意思 9. 介词题考的是固定搭配，其前的动词或名词、其后的名词就显得尤其的重要。要求考生一定要背一些固定搭配的短语。 10. 连接代词和连接副词题，考的就是从句的引导词(尤其是以定语从句为主)：①如果横线前是介词，则选项应选which；②如果选项中有“介词+which”这个选项，则该选项多半是正确答案；③非限定性定语从句中，先行词是人，用who，先行词是物，用which，先行词是句子，用which； ④三种用that的情况。 接下来，我们就以实际的一篇例题来让大家体会一下，到底我们所讲的这个解题技巧在完形填空的解题当中起到了多大的作用： Think as a Hacker Does At the brand-new Hacker Academy in Chicago, US, students learn about phishing schemes, firewall breaches, and advanced tricks for breaking into confidential documents and revealing passwords. But it's not nearly as illegal as it sounds. The academy doesn't teach people to be （1）, but to "think like hackers" - and hopefully to stay one step ahead of （2）.

职称英语考试完形填空拿高分的技巧2017年职称英语考试完形填空拿高分的技巧 (1)语法和词汇 (2)固定搭配 (3)上下文的逻辑推理 在最后的冲刺阶段，首要任务是将职称英语教材中的新增文章再次复习一遍，加强对文章的记忆和理解。 其次，职称英语考生需要参考历年完型考试的真题，熟悉题型特点，考生可以从历年真题中总结并学习职称英语考试中一些不断重复的语法考点，比如动词时态，冠词考察，介词等的考查。 最后，职称英语考生一定要记住，良好的学习心态、积极的应试心理也是考试制胜的关键因素。在职称英语考场上要保持镇定，从容应答，这样才能唤醒记忆，将所学所掌握的知识应用到职称英语考试中。 完型填空必做三项功课 一、主要考察内容：完形填空旨在测试考生对语言的理解程度和综合运用语言的`能力。职称英语考试中的完形填空测试是一篇难度适中，长度为150词左右的短文。短文中留出15个空白，每个空白为一题，每题有四个选项。要求考生在全面理解内容的基础上选择最佳答案，使短文意思完整、文理通顺、结构严谨、主题明确。 完形填空考题的设计一般是从以下三个方面出发的：(1)语法结构(2)词法结构(3)上下文之间的逻辑关系。
在15个选项中，要求填入实词(动词、名词和形容词等)的约占70%，其他为虚词(介词、副词等)的约占30%.要填的词几乎涉及各 个词类，动词含有不同的时态和语态。 二、复习策略分析 1.复习方向：完形填空的复习主要以本类别和本级别的完型填空的文章为主，尤其是以本类别和级别新增文章为重点进行复习，然 后再去看本类别的非新增文章，如有精力以其他类别的完型填空的 文章作为练习训练去做做。 2.一般的解题步骤： 通读全文 首先要阅读整篇文章，理解全文内容。同时对全文的语言表达方式，比如文章用的时态、语态、文章的措辞与口气等方面得出大致 印象。 逻辑判断 在阅读全篇的基础上，开始从头判断每个空所缺的词的语言形式，如词类、时态、语态;并判断该词应具有的符合文章上下文的词义。 理解选择 从给出的4个选项中，选出在语法与词义上均与原文相符合的一个。 三、高分通关必做的三项功课： 1.语法知识的积累职称英语考试完型填空题型能否顺利拿下分数，除了对重点文章的正掌握外，平时对语法知识的积累是非常重要的。很大程度上完形填空都在考查考生运用语法知识的能力，因此在强 化阶段，考生应该对职称考试中涉及的语法点进行巩固复习。 2.固定搭配与词组的记忆完型填空中大部分都是考查的动词等的固定搭配、常用的词组等，因此考生在强化阶段应该注意对平时阅 读中出现的固定搭配与词组进行搜集、积累与记忆。

第四篇 Animal?s “Sixth Sense” A tsunami was triggered by an earthquake in the Indian Ocean in December, 2004. It killed tens of thousands of people in Asia and East Africa. Wild animals, 1 , seem to have escaped that terrible tsunami. This phenomenon adds weight to notions that 1 they possess a “sixth sense” for 2 , experts said. Sri Lankan wildlife officials have said the giant waves that killed over 24,000 people along the Indian Ocean island?s coast clearly 3 wild beasts, with no dead animals found. “N o elephants arc dead, not 4 a dead rabbit. I think animals can 5 disaster. They have a sixth sense. They know when things are happening,” H. D. Ratnayake, deputy director of Sri Lanka?s Wildlife Department, said about one month after the tsunami attack. The 6 washed floodwaters up to 2 miles inland at Yala National Park in the ravaged southeast, Sri Lanka?s biggest wildlife 7 and home to hundreds of wild elephants and several leopards. “There has been a lot of 8 evidence about dogs barking or birds migrating before volcanic eruptions or earthquakes. But it has not been proven,” said Matthew van Lierop, an animal behavior 9 at Johannesburg Zoo. “There have been no ＿10＿ studies because you can?t really test it in a lab or field setting 2 ,” he told Reuters. Other authorities concurred with this 11 . “Wildlife seem to be able to pick up certain 12 , especially birds … there are many reports of birds detecting impending disasters,” said Clive Walker, who has written several books on African wildlife. Animals 13 rely on the known senses such as smell or hearing to avoid danger slid as predators. The notion of an animal “sixth sense” — or 14 other mythical power is an enduring one 3 which the evidence on Sri Lanka?s ravaged coast is likely to add to. The Romans saw owls 15 omens of impending disaster and many ancient cultures viewed elephants as sacred animals endowed with special power or attributes. 词汇： tsunami /tsju:5nB:mi / n.海啸 concur /kEn5kE: / v.(with)同意，赞成 trigger /5tri^E / v.引发，触发 impending /im5pendiN / adj.迫近的 ravaged adj.被毁坏的 predator /5predEtE / n.食肉动物 leopard /5lepEd / n.豹 mythical /5miWikEl/ adj.神话般的 eruption /i5rQpFEn / n.喷发 owl /Eul / n.猫头鹰 migrate /mai5^reit / v.迁移 omen /5Eumen / n.预兆，征兆 volcanic /vCl5kAnik / adj.火山的 endow /in5dau / v.赋予注释: 1. adds weight to notions that ：更加相信…… 2. field setting ：field 意为“实地，野外”， setting 意为“环境”。 field setting 可译为“野外环境”。 3. enduring one ：由来已久的信念。 one 指代在句首出现的， noiton enduring 意为“持久的，永久的”。练习：
