The man is there to feed the dog, and the dog is there to keep the man awayfrom the machines.”??Davidson’s article is one of a number of pieces that have recently appeared making the point that the reason we have such stubbornly high unemployment and sagging middle-class incomes today is largely because of the big drop in demand because of the Great Recession, but it is also because of the quantum advances in both globalization and the information technology revolution, which are more rapidly than ever replacing labor with machines or foreignworkers.?In the past, workers with average skills, doing an average job, could earn an average lifestyle. But, today, average is officially over. Being average just won’t earn you what it used to. It can’t when so many more employers have so much more access to so much more above average cheap foreign labor, cheap robotics, cheap software, cheap automation and cheap genius.?Therefore, everyone needs to find their extra —their unique value contribution that makes them stand out in whatever is their field of employment. Average is over.??Yes, new technology has been eating jobs forever, and always will. As they say, if horses could have voted, there never would have been cars. But there’s been an acceleration. As Davidson notes,?“In the 10 years ending in 2009, [.] factories shed workers so fast that they erased almost all the gains of the previous 70 years; roughly one out of every three manufacturing jobs- about 6 million in total- disappeared.”?There will always be change-new jobs, new products, new services. But the one thing we know for sure is that with each advance in globalization and the . revolution, the best jobs will require workers to have more and better education to make themselves above average. Here are the latest unemployment rates from the Bureau of Labor Statistics for Americans over 25 years old: those with less than a high school degree, percent; those with a highschool degree and no college, percent; those with some college or associate degree, percent; and those withbachelor’s degree or higher, percent.?In a world where average is officially over, there are many things we need to do to buttress (support) employment, but nothing would be more important than passing some kind of . Bill for the 21st century that ensures that everyAmerican has access to post-high school education.?21. The joke in Paragraph 1 is used to illustrate _________[A] the impact of technological advances[B] the alleviation of job pressure[C]the shrinkage of textile mills[D]the decline of middle-class incomes【分析】第一段第二行指出笑话是关于纺织厂自动化程度的，后一句具体说明了笑话的内容：工厂平均每天只有两个人，一人一狗。

人的工作是喂狗，狗的工作是看机器，暗示了工厂所有的生产工作都是由机器自动完成的。

因此，这个笑话是用来说明技术进步的影响，故选A。

?22. According to Paragraph 3, to be a successful employee, one has to __________[A] work on cheap software[B]ask for a moderate salary[C]adopt an average lifestyle[D]contribute something unique【分析】事实细节题，通过题干，我们首先可以定位到文章第三段，由第三段的最后一句话“Therefore, everyone needs to find their extra-their unique value contribution that makes them stand out in whatever is their field of employment.”意思是“因此，人人都需要有另外的价值，异于常人的独特价值能够让他们在各自的雇佣市场上脱颖而出”，我们可以得出，题干中“to be a successful employee”与第三段的最后一句话中的“that makes them stand out in whatever is their field of employment”是同义替换，“everyone needs to find their extra-their unique value contribution”与D选项中的“contribute something unique”是同义替换，所以D选项正确。

?23. The quotation in Paragraph 4 explains that __________[A] gains of technology have been erased[B] job opportunities are disappearing at a high speed[C] factories are making much less money than before[D]new jobs and services have been offered【分析】根据题干定位到第四段，第一句technology has been eating jobs（技术使工作机会减少）也反映了该段的主旨。

而根据题干quotation一词，我们读到下划线部分有“shed workers （解雇工人）”、“roughly one out of every three manufacturing jobs-about 6 million in total -disappeared （大约1/3的手工生产工作机会消失，总计6百万）”，可推断出B选项。

?24. According to the author, to reduce unemployment, the most important is __________[A] to accelerate the IT revolution[B]to ensure more education for people[C]to advance economic globalization[D]to pass more bills in the 21st?century【分析】?25. Which of the following would be the most appropriate title for the text?[A] New Law Takes Effect[B]Technology Goes Cheap[C]Average Is Over[D]Recession Is Bad【分析】该题是主旨大意题，主要考查考生根据文章内容凝练主旨大意的能力。

They have become devoted to physical fitness. The need to exercise has almost become compulsive with many persons who have a strong desire to ‘be more phys ically fit.By nature， Americans are enthusiastic and energetic about their hobbies and pastimes. They apply this enthusiasm，and energy to jogging/running. As a result， there are running clubs to join and many books and magazines to read about running.Th e desire to be physically fit is explained by a ``passion‘’for good health. The high rate of heart attacks in the 1960s caused an increase on the part of the public in improving the human body. Middle-aged men especially suffer from heart attacks. Thus， they are one group strongly interested in more physical exercise. In[1][2][3][4][5]下一页[1][2][3][4][5]下一页97年在职MBA联考英语试题和答案fact，many doctors encourage their patients to become more physically active，especially those who have sedentary jobs. it is interesting to note that the rate of heart attacks began to decrease in the 1970s and it is still decreasing. Physical fitness currently enjoys a favored role in the United States. It is a new ``love‘’ that many Americans have cherished.

According to the passage，will the love for physical exercise last long for Americans？A. Yes.B. NO.C. Somebody can tell.D.

Even then you can never recover the real value you place upon your possessions. But you can’t insure against the upset and unhappiness that we all feel if our homes are seriously damaged by some stranger，our windows and doors smashed， our precious possessions ruined.“It won‘t happen to me.’‘Won‘t it？ A home is broken into almost every minute of the day. Thefts of all kinds， including cars and property stolen，happen twice as frequently.“I ‘ve nothing worth stealing.”You may think not. But in fact every one has something worth a thief‘s attention. And we a ll have things of special value to us even if they’re` worth little or nothing in cash terms.“I‘m only a tenant（房客）here.”The thief doesn‘t care whether you’re a tenant or an owner-occupier. You‘re just as likely to be robbed. Have a word with the owner of the house if you think extra locks and fastenings are necessary.“They‘ll get in any way.”Most thieves are always looking for easy jobs. They are soon discouraged by houses they can‘t get into quickly and easily. So it’s worth taking care.This booklet will help you——it‘s based on the practical experience of police forces throughout the country. Most of the suggestions will cost you only a few minutes extra time and thought. A few may involve some expense ，but this is small compared with the loss and unhappiness you might otherwise suffer.

It seems that many people think that ____.A. the police will protect them from thieves . -B. their houses ought to be more secureC. thieves will not choose to steal from themD. thieves only steal from house-owners30. This advertisement for a booklet aims to influence people who_______ .A. have had their houses broken intoB. are not properly insuredC. are afraid of what thieves might doD. have not thought much about securityQuestions 3I to35 are based on the following passage：One silly question I simply cannot tolerate is ``How do you feel？‘’ Usually the question is asked of a man in action——a man walking along the street， or busily working at his desk. So what do you expect him to say？He‘ll probably say， ``Fine，I’m all right.“ But you have put a bug in his ear - maybe now he is not sure. If you are his good friend ， you may have seen something on his face， or in his walk， that he overlooked that morning. It makes him worrying a little. He looks in a mirror to see if everything is all right， while you go merrily on your way asking someone else， ``How do you feel？‘’Every question has its time and place. it‘s perfectlyacceptable， for instance， to ask ``How do you feel？’‘ if you are visiting a close friend in the hospital. But if the fellow is walking on both legs， hurrying to take a train or sitting at his desk working，it’s no time to ask him that silly question.When George Bernard Shaw， the famous British writer of plays was in his eighties， someone asked him ``How do you feel？‘’ Shaw put him in his place. ``When you reach my age，“ he said，``either you feel all right or you are dead.”3I. According to the writer， greetings， such as ``How do you feel？‘’_____ .A. show one‘s consideration for othersB. are a good way to make friendsC. are proper to ask a man in action ……D. generally make one feel uneasy .32. The question ``How do you feel？‘’ seems to be correct and suitable when asked ofA. a friend who is illB. a person who has lost a close friend.C. a stranger who looks somewhat worriedD. a man who is working at his desk33. Gorge Bemard Shaw‘s reply in this passage shows his______ .A. sillinessB. clevernessC. carelessnessD. politeness34. ``You have put a bug in his ear“ means that you have______ .A. made him laughB. shown concern for himC. made fun of himD. given him some kind of warning35 . This passage can be entitled .A. A silly QuestionB. Don‘t Trouble a Busy ManC. What Are Good GreetingsD. Gerge Bemard Shaw‘s ReplyQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage：In recent years many countries of the world have been faced with the problem of how to make their workers more productive. Some experts claim the answer is to make jobs more varied （我种多样的）。

MBA联考英语阅读练习题及答案(一)

MBA联考英语阅读练习题及答案(一) 2010年MBA联考英语阅读练习题及答案(一) A great deal of attention is being paid today to the so called digital divide-the division of the world into the info(information) rich and the info poor. And that divide does exist today. My wife and I lectured about this looming danger twenty years ago. What was less visible then, however, were the new, positive forces that work against the digital divide. There are reasons to be optimistic. There are technological reasons to hope the digital divide will narrow. As the Internet becomes more and more commercialized, it is in the interest of business to universalize access-after all, the more people online, the more potential customers there are. More and more governments, afraid their countries will be left behind, want to spread Internet access. Within the next decade or two, one to two billion people on the planet will be netted together. As a result, I now believe the digital divide will narrow rather than widen in the years ahead. And that is very good news because the Internet may well be the most powerful tool for combating world poverty that we’ve ever had. Of course, the use of the Internet isn’t the only way to defeat poverty. And the Internet is not the only tool we have. But it has enormous potential.。

MBA联考英语阅读解题技巧(一)7.doc

MBA联考英语阅读解题技巧(一)7MBA英语阅读解题技巧（一）在MBA的英语试题中，阅读的分值为50分，占卷面的百分之五十。

英语要想获得理想的分数，阅读当然要尽量多得分。

根据近年来的联考英语出题规律，现整理相关的阅读解题技巧供大家参考。

1.例证题：①例证题的标记。

当题干中出现example,case,illustrate,illustration, exemplify时。

②返回原文，找出该例证所在的位置，既给该例子定位。

③搜索该例证周围的区域，90%向上，10%向下，找出该例证支持的观点。

例子周围具有概括抽象性的表达通常就是它的论点。

注意：举例的目的是为了支持论点或是为了说明主题句。

举例后马上问这个例子说明了什么问题？不能用例子中的话来回答这个问题。

④找出该论点，并与四个选项比较，得出选项中与该论点最一致的答案。

⑤例证题错误答案设计的干扰特征经常是：就事论事。

即用例子中的某一内容拉出来让你去选。

在阅读中，遇到长的例子，立即给这个例子定位，即找出起始点，从哪开始到哪结束。

2.指代题：①返回原文，找出出题的指代词。

②向上搜索，找最近的名词、名词性短语或句子（先从最近点开始找，找不到再找次近的，一般答案不会离得太远）。

③将找到的词、词组或句子的意思代入替换该指代词，看其意思是否通顺。

④将找到的词、词组或句子与四个选项进行比较，找出最佳答案。

3.词汇题：“搜索代入”法①返回原文，找出该词汇出现的地方。

②确定该词汇的词性③从上下文（词汇的前后几句）中找到与所给词汇具有相同词性的词（如一下子找不到就再往上往下找），代入所给词汇在文章中的位置（将之替换）看语义是否合适④找出选项中与代替词意思相同或相近的选相，即答案。

a.如果该词汇是简单词汇，则其字面意思必然不是正确答案。

b.考研阅读不是考察字认识不认识，而是考察是否能根据上下文作出正确的判断。

c.词汇题的正确答案经常蕴藏在原文该词汇出现的附近。

注意不能靠单词词义直接往下推。
