G28、______________________正确答案: M29、______________________正确答案: H30、______________________正确答案: KSection BDirections: There are several passages in this section、Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements、For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D)、You should decide on the best choice、Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage、Job sharing refers to the situation in which two people divide the responsibility of one full-time job、The two people willingly act as part-time workers, enough hours between them to fulfill the duties of a full-time worker、If they each work half the job, for example, they each receive 50 percent of the job’s wages, its holidays and its other benefits、Of course, some job sharers take a smaller or larger share of the responsibilities of the position, receiving a lesser or greater share of the benefits、Job sharing differs from conventional part-time work in that it occurs mainly in the more highly skilled and professional areas, which require higher levels of responsibility and employee mitment、Job sharing should not be confused with the term work sharing, which refers to increasing the number of jobs by reducing the number of hours of each existing job, thus offering more positions to the growing number of unemployed people、Job sharing, by contrast, is not designed to address unemployment problems; its focus, rather, is to provide well-paid work for skilled workers and professionals who want more free time for other activities、As would be expected, women constitute the bulk of job sharers、A survey carded out in 1988 by Brita in’s Equal Opportunities mission revealed that 78 per cent of sharers werefemale, the majority of whom were between 20 and 40 years of age、Subsequent studies have e up with similar results、Many of these women were re-entering the job market after having had children, but they chose not to seek part-time work because it would have meant lower status、Job sharing also offered an acceptable shift back into full-time work after a long absence、The necessity of close cooperation when sharing a job with another person makes the actual work quite different from conventional one-position jobs、However, to ensure a greater chance that the partnership will succeed, each person needs to know the strengths, weaknesses and preferences of his or her partner before applying for a position、Moreover, there must be a fair division of both routine tasks and interesting ones、In sum, for a position to be job-shared well, the two individuals must be well matched and must treat each other as equals、31、“Employee mitment” in Paragraph 2 refers to the employee’s ________、A) loyaltyB) qualificationC) devotionD) technique正确答案: A32、Work sharing is different from job sharing in that __________、A) it requires more working hoursB) it doesn’t matter with the unemployment problemsC) it creates more job opportunities for the unemployedD) it offers a more satisfactory salary正确答案: C33、Job sharing is popular with young mothers mainly because _________、A) they can take care of both work and familyB) they are over ideal working agesC) they seek equal opportunities with menD) they have difficulty finding full-time jobs正确答案: A34、In job sharing the partners should __________、A) be social equalsB) know each other very wellC) be intimate friendsD) have similar working experience正确答案: B35、The main purpose of the passage is to ___________、A) distinguish between job sharing and work sharingB) describe job sharing in generalC) criticize job sharing as inefficientD) discuss a way to tackle unemploymentPassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage、Taking charge of yourself involves putting to rest some very prevalent myths、At the top of the list is the notion that intelligence is measured by your ability to solve plex problems; to read, write and pute at certain levels; and to resolveabstract equations quickly、This vision of intelligence asserts formal education and bookish excellence as the true measures of self fulfillment、It encourages a kind of intellectual prejudice that has brought with it some discouraging results、We have e to believe that someone who has more educational merit badges, who is very good at some form of school discipline is “intelligent、” Yet mental hospitals are filled with patients who have all of the properly lettered certificates、A truer indicator of intelligence is an effective, happy life lived each day and each present moment of every day、If you are happy, if you live each moment for everything it’s worth, then you are an intelligent person、Problem solving is a useful help to your happiness, but if you know that given your inability to resolve a particular concern you can still choose happiness for yourself, or at a minimum refuse to choose unhappiness, then you are intelligent、You are intelligent because you have the ultimate weapon against the big — Nervous Break Down、Intelligent people do not have because they are in charge of themselves、They know how to choose happiness over depression, because they know how to deal with the problems of their lives、You can begin to think of yourself as truly intelligent on the basis of how you choose to feel in the face of trying circumstances、The life struggles are pretty much the same for each of us、Everyone who is involved with other human beings in any social context has similar difficulties、Disagreements, conflicts and promises are a part of what it means to be human、Similarly, money, growing old, sickness, deaths, natural disasters and accidents are all events which present problems to virtually all human beings、But some people are able to make it, to avoid immobilizing depression and unhappiness despite such occurrences, while others collapse or have an Those who recognize problems as a human condition and don’t measure happiness by an absence of problems are the most intelligent kind of humans we know; also, the most rare、36、According to the author, the conventional notion of intelligence measured in terms of one’s ability to read, write and pute________、A) is a

passages in this section、Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements、For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C)and D)、You should decide on the best choice、Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage、Careers for women should not be any different from careers for men、Decisions about gainful and satisfying employment for women should be made on the basis of individual interest and abilities、A variety of factors can help women find better jobs、Women need better career planning and counseling、They should be encouraged to develop personal goals that will enable them to pete for good jobs in light of their abilities, desires and training、Career guidance should begin at the junior high school level, or even at the elementary school level, with the assistance of counselors, teachers and parents、Some women must change their career aspirations、Since openings in the usual women’s occupations will not be sufficient to supply jobs for all women seeking work, they must choose alternatives in other occupations、Many of these jobs may pay higher wages and offer greater opportunities for promotion、In the past, too many women were forced to settle for second best、Others were willing to settle for inferior jobs because they felt that their stay in the labor force would be temporary、However, the situation is changing as more and more women bee aware of the possibility of bining the roles of wife, mother, and homemaker with that of paid worker、Employer’s attitudes about women’s roles and desires to work need to be changed、Perhaps, the overriding factors and the myths that employers, policymakers, and others in our society have unfairly associated with the work patterns of women、One such myth is that women are not seriously attached to the labor force, as they work only for pocket money、However, one recent study shows that of the 33 million women in the labor force, more than half are working because of pressing economic needs、These women prise a group who are either single, widowed, divorced, separated, or married to men with ines of less than $ 5,000 a year、Women constitute nearly two fifths of the work force、However, because of foregone conclusions about their interests and abilities, women are unfairly restricted in the kinds of jobs they hold、Their concentration in the less rewarding, lower paying occupations with fewer chances for advancement、Personal choice in the world of work will begin to bee a reality when the guidance counselor, the shop teacher, the plant employer, and women themselves are able to develop an appreciation for the differences in personal abilities and desires、31、Which of the following is the thing that the author advises women to do?A)

jobs、正确答案: B32、According to this essay, women have often settled for inferior jobs because _____、A) they only work for pocket money。
