Part Ⅱ
Reading Comprehension (35 minutes)
Directions:There are 4 reading passages in this part. 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 and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.
Passage One
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:

When Kathie Gifford’s face was splashed across the newspapers in 1996 after her lucrative line of Walmart clothing was exposed as the work of underpaid laborers in New York City’s Chinatown, the Department of Labor and the White House teamed up to condemn such practices. With much fanfare, President Clinton’s administration launched the “No Sweat” campaign, which pressured retailers and manufacturers to submit to periodic independent inspection of their workplace conditions.\;
This campaign urged manufacturers to sign the Workplace Code of Conduct, a promise to selfregulate that has since been adopted by a handful of retailers and many of the nation’s largest manufacturers, including Nike and L.L. Bean. However, the Department of Defense, which has a $ 1 billion garment business that would make it the country’s 14th largest retail apparel outlet, has not signed the Code of Conduct. In addition, it has not agreed to demand that its contractors submit to periodic inspections.\;
Because the Department of Defense has not agreed to adhere to the code, the job of stopping publicsector sweatshops falls to the Department of Labor. Federal contractors that persist in violating wage laws or safety and health codes can lose their lucrative taxpayerfinanced contracts. But Suzanne Seiden, a deputy administrator at the Department of Labor, says that to her knowledge, the department has never applied that rule to government apparel manufacturers. “I just assume that they are adhering to safety and health requirements,” she says. According to records obtained by Mother Jones, through a Freedom of Information Act request, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration has cited Lion 32 times for safety and health violations in the past 12 years.
21.What is this passgage mainly concerned with?
A)The functions of the Department of Labor in America.
B)A serious problem threatening American economy.
C)The successful attempt of regulating sweatshops in America.
D)The seriousness of the problem of sweatshops in America.

22.According to the passage, Kathie Gifford ____.
A) was one of the underpaid laborers in New York City’s Chinatown
B) was one of the wellpaid laborers in New York City’s Chinatown
C) made much money from cheap laborers in New York City’s Chinatown
D) wrote a newspaper article exposing the practice of employing cheap laborers

23.The underlined phrase “to submit to” is closest in meaning to ____.
A) to accept unwillingly
B) to refuse coldly
C) to welcome warmheartedly
D) to blame strongly

24.Which of the following statements about the Department of Defense is true?
A) It will become the country’s 14th largest retail apparel manufacturer.
B) It hasn’t acted according to the Workplace Code of Conduct.
C) It has demanded its contractors to sign the Workplace Code of Conduct.
D) It has teamed up with the Department of Labor to launch a campaign.

25.What was the purpose of President Clinton’s administration launching the “No Sweat” campaign?
A) To urge manufacturers to obey the Workplace Code of Conduct.
B) To remind the manufacturers of the Workplace Code of Conduct.
C) To urge the Department of Labor to take its responsibility.
D) To urge the Department of Defense to inspect manufacturers.

Passage Two
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:

The term investment portfolio conjures up visions of the truly rich-the Rockefellers, the WalMart Waltons, Bill Gates. But today, everyone-from the Philadelphia firefighter, his parttime receptionist wife and their three children, to the single Los Angeles lawyer starting out on his own-needs a portfolio.\;
A portfolio is simply a collection of financial assets. It may include real estate, rare stamps and coins, precious metals and even artworks. But those are for people with expertise. What most of us need to know about are stocks, bonds and cash (including such cash equivalents as moneymarket funds).\;
How do you decide what part of your portfolio should go to each of the big three? Begin by understanding that stocks pay higher returns but are more risky; bonds and cash pay lower returns but are less risky.\;
Research by Ibbotson Associates, for example, shows that largecompany stocks, on average, have returned 11.2 percent annually since 1926. Over the same period, by comparison, bonds have returned an annual average of 5.3 percent and cash, 3.8 percent.\;
But shortterm risk is another matter. In 1974, a oneyear $1000 investment in the stock market would have declined to $735.\;
With bonds, there are two kinds of risk: that the borrower won’t pay you back and that the money you’ll get won’t be worth very much. The U.S. government stands behind treasury bonds, so the credit risk is almost nil. But the inflation risk remains. Say you buy a $1000 bond maturing in ten years. If inflation averages about seven percent over that time, then the $1000 you receive at maturity can only buy $500 worth of today’s goods.\;
With cash, the inflation risk is lower, since over a long period you can keep rolling over your CDs every year (or more often). If inflation rises, interest rates rise to compensate.\;
As a result, the single most imortant rule in building a portfolio is this: If you don’t need the money for a long time, then put it into stocks. If you need it soon, put it into bonds and cash.

26.This passage is intended to give advice on ____.
A) how to avoid inflation risks
B) what kinds of bonds to buy
C) how to get rich by investing in stock market
D) how to become richer by spreading the risk

27.The author mentions such millionaires as the Rockefellers and Bill Gates to show that ____.
A) they are examples for us on our road to wealth
B) a portfolio is essential to financial success
C) they are really rich people
D) they started out on their own

28.Which of the following statements will the author support?
A) Everybody can get rich with some financial assets.
B) The credit risk for treasury bonds is extremely high.
C) It’s no use trying to know the advantages of stocks, bonds and cash.
D) Everybody should realize the importance of distribution of their financial assets.
29.The word “returns” in paragraph three can be best replaced by “____.”
A) returning journeys
B) profits
C) savings
D) investments

30.The author of the passage points out that ____.
A) keeping cash is the only way to avoid risks
B) the longer you own a stock, the more you lost
C) the high rate of profit and high rate of risk coexist in stocks
D) the best way to accumulate wealth is by investing in stocks

Passage Three
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:

There were two widely divergent influences on the early development of statistical methods. Statistics had a mother who was dedicated to keeping orderly records of governmental units (state and statistics come from the same Latin root, status) and a gentlemanly gambling father who relied on mathematics to increase his skill at playing the odds in games of chance. The influence of the mother on the offspring, statistics, is represented by counting, measuring, describing, tabulating, ordering, and the taking of censuses—all of which led to modern descriptive statistics. From the influence of the father came modern inferential statistics, which is based squarely on theories of probability.\;
Descriptive statistics involves tabulating, depicting, and describing collections of data. These data may be either quantitative, such as measures of height, intelligence, or grade level—variables that are characterized by an underlying continuum—or the data many represent qualitative variables, such as sex, college major, or personality type. Large masses of data must generally undergo a process of summarization or reducing to comprehensibly form the properties of an otherwise unwieldy mass of data.\;
Inferential statistics is a formalized body of methods for solving another class of problems that present great difficulties for the unaided human mind. This general class of problems characteristically involves attempts to make predictions using a sample of observations. For example, a school superintendent wishes to determine the proportion of children in a large school system who come to school without breakfast, have been vaccinated for flu, or whatever. Having a little knowledge of statistics, the superintendent would know that it is unnecessary and inefficiency to question each child; the proportion for the entire district could be estimated fairly accurately from a sample of as few as 100 children. Thus, the purpose of inferential statistics is to predict or estimate characteristics of a population from a knowledge of the characteristics of only a sample of the population.

31.What is the passage mainly concerned with?
A) Development and application of statistics.
B) Origin of descriptive statistics.
C) Limitations of inferential statistics.
D) Importance of statistics.

32.Describing and tabulating are associated with ____.
A) inferential statistics
B) descriptive statistics
C) theories of probability
D) inefficiency of counting

33.Which of the following statements is true about descriptive statistics?
A) It combines quantitative variables and qualitative variables.
B) It can be used to deal with only quantitative variables.
C) It helps to summarize properties of a group of data.
D) It helps to make predictions using a sample of observations.

34.The word “unwieldy” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to ____.
A) difficult to collect   B) difficult to tackle
C) incomprehensive  D) uncontrollable

35.A sample of a population is often examined for the following purposes except ____.
A) to make a more accurate prediction of trend
B) to improve efficiency and avoid unnecessary work
C) to save the trouble of approaching every members
D) to predict characteristics of the entire population

Passage Four
Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:

The Japanese are fascinated by automata and new inventions. Japanese children are used to friendly robots in their comics, in toys, and in TV animated cartoons. When as adults they join the workforce,robots mean that there is no need to import cheap foreign labor, as happens in many other parts of the world. There is no need for humans to put up with dirty, minddeadening mechanical work the robot does it all without complaint, around the clock. Robots don’t go on strike over tea breaks they don’t have tea, or any other kind of breaks:they work, day and night, without having to be paid overtime, without making mistakes. Human tasks are subject to human error: robot error seldom or never occurs except as a result of human error!\;
In Japan, robots are almost respected for their virtues. When a new robot is introduced to a small suburban factory, a Shinto priest is invited to inaugurate it. He inaugurates the robot with words along the lines of “Welcome to our coworker, we hope you’ll help him settle in.” No one laughs.\;
FANUC demonstrates the Japanese tendency to conform particularly strikingly. The founder of FANUC, Dr. Inaba, has created an army that makes no distinction between bluecollar, whitecollar and steelcollar worker: everyone, including the warlord himself, is dressed in yellow clothing issued free by the company. Perh
aps to make up for the boring nature of the work, there are a number of other company perks. Company benefits, including pay, are much higher than in similar companies in Japan. Travel to and from work is provided free in the company’s yellow buses. However, workers are expected to put in demanding unpaid “overtime.” There is a clock in the product development laboratory set to run at ten times the normal speed, the remind everyone that the company is on a war footing.\;
As we watched Dr. Inaba’s yellow helicopter soar away to Narita airport, we couldn’t help thinking that his dream of world domination in robotics and allied applications might be more elegantly achieved if he had also thought to program his robots to whistle while they work.

36.According to the author, which of the following is not true to the Japanese?
A) Robots mean there is no need to import cheap foreign labor.
B) Robots mean that humans needn’t do dirty and noisy work.
C) Robots mean there are no strikes nor overtimes.
D) Robots mean there is no mistake in any form.

37.What can be inferred form the words “He inaugurates the robot with words along the lines of ‘Welcome to our coworker, we hope you’ll help him settle in.’No one laughs.”?
A) The Japanese has no sense of humor while at work.
B) The Japanese does not understand the words of the Shinto priest.
C) The Japanese shows a true respect for robots.
D) The Japanese goes too far in their respect for robots.

38.Which of the following is not true about FANUC?
A) Workers receive higher pay for working overtime.
B) Workers enjoy free travel to and from work.
C) Workers are doing boring, sometimes demanding work.
D) Workers are reminded of being on a war footing.

39.What is not implied in the following works “we couldn’t help thinking that his dream of world domination in robotics and allied applications might be more elegantly achieved if he had also thought to program his robots to whistle while they work.”?
A) Our technology is not yet up to the needs of Dr. Inaba’s dream.
B) Dr. Inaba’s dream of world domination in robotics lacks humanity.
C) Dr. Inaba’s dream of allied applications is too practical.
D) The author is in favor of Dr. Inaba’s dream.

40.What does “our coworker” refer to in the sentence “Welcome to our coworker, we hope you’ll help him settle in?”
A) Japanese workers who attend the inauguration.
B) The introduced robot.
C) The people who have invented the robot.
D) Japanese workers in general.

Q:What can we infer from the conversation?

Section B
Shyness is the cause of much unhappiness for a great many people. Shy people are anxious and (11) selfconscious; that is, they are excessively concerned with their own appearance and actions. (12)Worrisome thoughts are constantly occurring in their minds: What kind of impression am I making? Do they like me? Do I sound stupid? Am I wearing (13)unattractive clothes?
It is obvious that such uncomfortable feelings must affect people (14)adversely. A person’s selfconcept is (15)reflected in the way he or she behaves, and the way a person behaves affects other people’s (16)reactions. In general, the way people think about themselves has a (17)profound effect on all areas of their lives.\;Shy people are very sensitive to criticism; they feel it confirms their inferiority. (18)They also find it difficult to be pleased by compliments because they believe they are unworthy of praise. A shy person may respond to a compliment with a statement like this one:“You’re just saying that to make me feel good. I know it’s not true.” (19)It is clear that, while selfawareness is a healthy quality, overdoing it is harmful.
Can shyness be completely eliminated, or at least reduced? (20)Since shyness goes hand in hand with lack of selfesteem, it is important for people to accept their weaknesses as well as their strengths. People’s expectations of themselves must be realistic. Living on the impossible leads to a sense of inadequacy.

Section B
內(nèi)容概要:
本段聽力材料講的是羞怯的人常見的行為方式,他們給周圍人所帶來(lái)的不良影響以及這些人的內(nèi)心想法。作者認(rèn)為羞怯的人應(yīng)該對(duì)自己有個(gè)正確而現(xiàn)實(shí)的認(rèn)識(shí),不要生活在一些不可能的假設(shè)之中。
11.【答案】self-conscious
【詳細(xì)解答】本空所在的這一句中,前面有anxious和and,可以肯定11是一個(gè)與anxious(憂慮的)相近的形容詞。再看前面的主語(yǔ)是shy people,那么羞怯的人一般是憂慮和忸怩。結(jié)合音,可知此空應(yīng)填self-conscious(不自然的;忸怩的)。
12.【答案】Worrisome
【詳細(xì)解答】從本句結(jié)構(gòu)來(lái)看,空處應(yīng)填一個(gè)形容詞,而且修飾thoughts(想法)。羞怯的人心中常常會(huì)有什么樣的想法呢?從錄音中很容易聽出worry這個(gè)詞的音,但該詞不能作形容詞用。那么以worry的音開頭的形容詞有哪些呢?有worried, worrying, worrisome, worriless。從意思上看,worriless應(yīng)該去掉。再結(jié)合該單詞的后半部分發(fā)音,可知應(yīng)該填worrisome(使人煩惱的)。
13.【答案】unattractive
【詳細(xì)解答】本空前面講了一串使人煩惱的想法:我會(huì)給別人留下什么樣的印象?他們喜歡我嗎?我聽起來(lái)很愚蠢嗎?我穿的是____的衣服嗎?所以空處應(yīng)填一形容詞,表示不受歡迎的或不引人注意的意思。再結(jié)合發(fā)音,很容易聽出attractive的音,但意思反了;想到其義詞并根據(jù)其前綴的發(fā)音,即可猜出是unattractive。
14.【答案】adversely
【詳細(xì)解答】從本句意思來(lái)看,說(shuō)的是上述提及的一些不舒服的感覺會(huì)影響人們,所以這種影響肯定是負(fù)面的或不利的;再?gòu)木渥咏Y(jié)構(gòu)來(lái)看,前半部分是完整的句子,所以空處應(yīng)該是一個(gè)狀語(yǔ),只填一個(gè)詞的話,那么應(yīng)是一個(gè)副詞。表示“負(fù)面的,不利的”含義的一個(gè)副詞,再結(jié)合發(fā)音,可以得知是adversely,本詞是典型的adj. + ly構(gòu)成的副詞。
15.【答案】reflected
【詳細(xì)解答】從句子結(jié)構(gòu)來(lái)看,空處是在系動(dòng)詞is之后,所以應(yīng)填一個(gè)作表語(yǔ)的詞或動(dòng)詞的過(guò)去分詞表示被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài);再看句子意思,一個(gè)人對(duì)自我的看法是通過(guò)其行為方式所____的,很明顯,此處應(yīng)填“反映出,表達(dá)出”含義的詞;再聽發(fā)音,可以得知reflected。事實(shí)上,該詞的發(fā)音比較容易辨別。
16.【答案】reactions
【詳細(xì)解答】此句講的是一個(gè)人的行為方式影響別人的____,所以空處應(yīng)填一個(gè)表示“情緒,反應(yīng),看法”等含義的名詞;再細(xì)聽音,很容易辨別為reactions。需注意的是應(yīng)用其復(fù)數(shù)形式。
17.【答案】profound
【詳細(xì)解答】此空前面是冠詞a,后面是名詞effect,所以空處應(yīng)填一個(gè)輔音開頭的形容詞;再看句子意思,人們看待自己的方式對(duì)他們生活的各個(gè)方面產(chǎn)生____的影響,空處意思應(yīng)為“深遠(yuǎn)的,重大的,較大的”等含義;再仔細(xì)聽音,不難知道答案。
18.【答案】They also find it difficult to be pleased by compliments because they believe they are unworthy of praise.
【詳細(xì)解答】本空要求填一個(gè)句子。填句子的基本要求是與前后句在意思上要連貫,沒有語(yǔ)法和拼寫錯(cuò)誤。本空前面是講羞怯的人對(duì)于批評(píng)很敏感,后面是說(shuō)他們通常會(huì)說(shuō)一些消極的話來(lái)回應(yīng)別人的稱贊,那么空處的意思應(yīng)該是講他們對(duì)待稱贊的態(tài)度,而且這種態(tài)度肯定是不高興的。其中有一個(gè)關(guān)鍵詞compliment,后面已經(jīng)出現(xiàn)了。再結(jié)合發(fā)音,可以得知該句是帶有原因狀語(yǔ)從句的一個(gè)復(fù)合句,從句中難點(diǎn)是unworthy of praise,也可以寫成they don’t deserve praise。
19.【答案】It is clear that, while self-awareness is a healthy quality, overdoing it is harmful.
【詳細(xì)解答】從前后文來(lái)看,本句話應(yīng)是作者對(duì)前面羞怯的人所說(shuō)的一句話的評(píng)論。前面一句話為“你們這樣說(shuō)是為了讓我感覺良好,但我知道這是不真實(shí)的”,那么作者對(duì)這句話的評(píng)價(jià)肯定是否定的,因?yàn)檫@些人的自知之明太過(guò)了。再聽音,self-awareness是一個(gè)關(guān)鍵詞,但前面出現(xiàn)過(guò)類似的詞,如:self-conscious, self-concept;難點(diǎn)是overdoing,可以根據(jù)句子意思再結(jié)合音來(lái)猜測(cè),而且要注意變?yōu)閯?dòng)名詞形式。同時(shí)要注意本句中間插有一個(gè)比較狀語(yǔ)從句,要注意斷句。
20. 【答案】Since shyness goes hand in hand with lack of self-esteem, it is important for people to accept their weakness as well as their strengths.
【詳細(xì)解答】本句話是回答前面的問(wèn)句。前面問(wèn):羞怯感能否完全消除,或者減弱?作者緊接著側(cè)面回答了如何來(lái)減弱。當(dāng)聽到since這個(gè)詞引導(dǎo)從句時(shí),應(yīng)該想到本句又是一個(gè)帶狀語(yǔ)從句的復(fù)合句。有幾個(gè)短語(yǔ):hand in hand with(手拉手,緊緊相連),as well as(也……,和……一起),關(guān)鍵詞有self-esteem(該詞的形近詞前面已經(jīng)出現(xiàn)了幾次),weakness和strength一對(duì)反義詞。在聽第二遍和第三遍時(shí)應(yīng)重點(diǎn)抓住這些短語(yǔ)和關(guān)鍵詞,整個(gè)句子便可輕松寫出來(lái)。

Part Ⅱ
Passage One
內(nèi)容概要:
本文講述了美國(guó)“工作場(chǎng)所操作規(guī)范”誕生的背景和實(shí)施情況。1996年,美國(guó)一些地方和部門的低收入工人抗議血汗工廠,隨后克林頓政府發(fā)起“無(wú)血汗”運(yùn)動(dòng),要求零售商和制造商簽署《工作場(chǎng)所操作規(guī)范》?墒菄(guó)防部拒絕執(zhí)行;美國(guó)勞工部作為政府部門,卻稱主要要求制造商們遵守安全和衛(wèi)生規(guī)定。
21.【答案】D。
【譯文】這篇文章主要講述什么?
【試題分析】歸納概括題(Summing up and summarizing),這種試題要求學(xué)生能把握文章的總體,并真正理解主題和中心大意。
【詳細(xì)解答】文章從開始就講述眾多的低收入工人集體抗議工作條件,導(dǎo)致Kathie Gifford的服裝廠被曝光;于是克林頓政府發(fā)起“無(wú)血汗”運(yùn)動(dòng),可是國(guó)防部拒絕簽署《工作場(chǎng)所操作規(guī)范》,勞工部卻稱該部門主要要求制造商們遵守安全和衛(wèi)生規(guī)定?梢娒绹(guó)政府部門對(duì)于血汗工廠的問(wèn)題存有分歧,也難以解決。所以文章的中心大意是美國(guó)血汗工廠的問(wèn)題目前最嚴(yán)重的地方是美國(guó)政府對(duì)此的態(tài)度不夠統(tǒng)一和堅(jiān)決。A)太偏,不是講美國(guó)勞工部的職能;B)太泛,沒有指明哪個(gè)問(wèn)題,也不一定威脅到美國(guó)的經(jīng)濟(jì);C)與文章意思相反,美國(guó)規(guī)范血汗工廠的努力并沒有成功。D)最符合文章主題。
22.【答案】C。
【譯文】根據(jù)本文,Kathie Gifford____ ?
【試題分析】細(xì)節(jié)理解題(Understanding details)。這類題一般只針對(duì)文章中某一個(gè)特定的細(xì)節(jié),也可以涉及若干個(gè)細(xì)節(jié),或者針對(duì)文章的主要事實(shí)而設(shè)問(wèn)。
【詳細(xì)解答】見文章第一句話“When Kathie Gifford...condemn such practices.”,Kathie Gifford的高利潤(rùn)的服裝廠曝光了,之后她于1996年在報(bào)紙上被廣泛報(bào)道。所以C)為正確答案。A)和B)與本句意思不符,她不是一名工人;D)說(shuō)她寫文章報(bào)道此事,也不對(duì)。
23.【答案】A。
【譯文】與劃線短語(yǔ)“to submit to” 意思最接近的是下列哪一項(xiàng)?
【試題分析】猜測(cè)詞義題(Guessing at word meaning)。即運(yùn)用一些猜測(cè)生詞詞義的方法,猜測(cè)生詞的含義,以提高閱讀速度和理解能力。
【詳細(xì)解答】可以對(duì)上下文已知部分進(jìn)行邏輯的推理。前面講到克林頓發(fā)起的“無(wú)血汗”運(yùn)動(dòng)勒令零售商和制造商對(duì)車間環(huán)境進(jìn)行定期檢查,他們肯定是不情愿的,但這是總統(tǒng)的命令,所以他們就“不情愿地接受”。B)“冷冷地拒絕”;C)“熱烈地歡迎”;D)“強(qiáng)烈地譴責(zé)”均與上下文意思不符。
24.【答案】B。
【譯文】下列關(guān)于國(guó)防部的陳述哪一項(xiàng)是正確的?
【試題分析】分析判斷題(Making an analysis and a judgment)。即根據(jù)文章中提供的事實(shí),經(jīng)過(guò)分析、思考做出這樣或那樣的判斷選擇。
【詳細(xì)解答】這類題需要事先通讀全文,理解全文主旨,尤其是關(guān)于國(guó)防部的內(nèi)容;然后再將四個(gè)選項(xiàng)進(jìn)行比較,用排除法。A)國(guó)防部是美國(guó)第14大零售服裝制造商,這與文章中retail apparel outlet(零售服裝批發(fā)商店)不符;B)它沒有按照《工作場(chǎng)所操作規(guī)范》行事,這與文章中has not signed the code of conduct正好相符;C)它要求承包商簽署《工作場(chǎng)所操作規(guī)范》, 這與文章中it has not agreed to demand that its contractors submit to periodic inspections.相反;D)它要求勞工部發(fā)起一場(chǎng)運(yùn)動(dòng),文章中沒有提及。所以,對(duì)比分析可得知B為正確答案。
25.【答案】A。
【譯文】克林頓政府發(fā)起“無(wú)血汗”運(yùn)動(dòng)的目的是什么?
【試題分析】細(xì)節(jié)理解中的詞義轉(zhuǎn)換題。這種題常常是原文有關(guān)詞語(yǔ)和句子的轉(zhuǎn)換,而不能在原文中直接找到。它要求考生能理解原文中某個(gè)短語(yǔ)或句子的含義,從而找到與答案意思相同的詞語(yǔ)和句子。
【詳細(xì)解答】文章第一段最后一句話“with much fanfare, ..., their workplace conditions.”是說(shuō),克林頓政府借此小題大做,以勒令制造商們對(duì)車間環(huán)境進(jìn)行定期檢查。關(guān)鍵詞有pressure(強(qiáng)制,壓迫,勒令),to submit to(屈服,服從)。第二段第一句話“this campaign urged manufacturers to sign the Conduct.”更加直接說(shuō)明了這場(chǎng)運(yùn)動(dòng)的目的,即讓他們簽署并執(zhí)行這一規(guī)范。故A)為正確答案。
Passage Two

本文介紹了大眾化投資的三種渠道,并分析了每種渠道的基本特征和適用對(duì)象。第一種是股票投資,回報(bào)豐厚,但風(fēng)險(xiǎn)較大;第二種是債券投資,回報(bào)稍少,但風(fēng)險(xiǎn)也較小,主要風(fēng)險(xiǎn)是借債人不還和通貨膨脹;第三種是投資現(xiàn)金,回報(bào)較少,通貨膨脹影響也較小;驹瓌t是:如果你長(zhǎng)期不需要用錢,就投資股票;如果你短期內(nèi)要用錢,就投資債券和現(xiàn)金。
26.【答案】D。
【譯文】文章的目的是給____提供建議?
【試題分析】歸納概括題。需要考生總結(jié)歸納短文(段落)的主題(subject),中心思想(main idea),標(biāo)題(title)或作者的寫作目的(purpose)。
【詳細(xì)解答】通讀全文后可知,本文主要介紹了投資的三種渠道,并分析了每種渠道的利弊(即風(fēng)險(xiǎn)程度),如何降低風(fēng)險(xiǎn)來(lái)投資致富,即D所指“如何降低風(fēng)險(xiǎn)來(lái)致富”。A)“如何避免通貨膨脹風(fēng)險(xiǎn)”,過(guò)于片面;B)“買入哪種債券”,不是文章的主題;C)“如何通過(guò)投資股票市場(chǎng)致富”,也過(guò)于片面。所以D)為正確答案,可以概括文章中心思想。
27.【答案】D。
【譯文】作者提及洛克菲勒、比爾蓋茨這樣的百萬(wàn)富翁是想說(shuō)明____?
【試題分析】推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章某一部分內(nèi)容推理出作者的言外之意。需要找準(zhǔn)、讀懂這部分內(nèi)容,并分析與文章其它部分之間的聯(lián)系和作用。
【詳細(xì)解答】第一段最后一句話,“But today, ..., starting out on his own needs a portfolio.”這是講的今天每個(gè)人都可以根據(jù)自己的需要進(jìn)行證券投資;推到前面一句,那么前面提及的百萬(wàn)富翁也都是根據(jù)自己的需要開始證券投資而致富的。A)“他們是我們邁向致富之路的榜樣”,不具體,沒有說(shuō)明如何致富;B)“證券投資對(duì)于經(jīng)濟(jì)成功很關(guān)鍵”,這句話本身是正確的,但與第一段表達(dá)的意思不一致;C)“他們確實(shí)很富!,也不是第一段所想要表達(dá)的意思。D)“他們是從自己開始做起的”,這正是第一段所要表達(dá)的意思,即這些百萬(wàn)富翁是從自己做起開始致富的,而現(xiàn)在每個(gè)人都可以這樣做,緊接著引入下面的投資指南。
28.【答案】D。
【譯文】作者贊同下列哪一項(xiàng)陳述?
【試題分析】分析判斷題?忌M量考慮文中的全部信息或事實(shí),在通盤理解文章的基礎(chǔ)上去分析每個(gè)選項(xiàng)的正誤。
【詳細(xì)解答】這類題應(yīng)在理解文章的基礎(chǔ)上,著重比較四個(gè)選項(xiàng),采取排除法。A)“只要有一些財(cái)產(chǎn),每個(gè)人都可以致富”,憑常識(shí)判斷這句話本身就不對(duì),更與作者想要介紹投資渠道的必要性和方法相悖;B)“購(gòu)買國(guó)債的信譽(yù)風(fēng)險(xiǎn)極高”,這句話與“The U.S. government stands behind Treasury bonds, so the credit risk is almost nil.”意思完全相反;C)“了解股票、債券和現(xiàn)金的優(yōu)勢(shì)并無(wú)用處”,這與作者的觀點(diǎn)相反;D)“每個(gè)人都應(yīng)該意識(shí)到金融財(cái)產(chǎn)重新分配的重要性。”這正是第一段作者所說(shuō)的“每個(gè)人都可以根據(jù)自己的需要采用不同的投資方式致富”的前提。故選D)。
29.【答案】B。
【譯文】第三段中的“returns”可以由以下哪個(gè)詞替代?
【試題分析】猜測(cè)詞義題。根據(jù)上下文來(lái)猜測(cè)生詞的含義。
【詳細(xì)解答】該詞本身的意思是“回來(lái),回報(bào)”,再看句子“stocks pay higher returns but are more risky.”是說(shuō)股票有更高的回報(bào),但風(fēng)險(xiǎn)更大;我們憑常識(shí)判斷,股票的回報(bào)就是“賺錢,利潤(rùn)”。比較四個(gè)選項(xiàng),B)profits(利潤(rùn))正確。
30.【答案】C。
【譯文】文章的作者指出____
【試題分析】分析判斷題。比較四個(gè)選項(xiàng),看哪一個(gè)符合作者的意思。
【詳細(xì)解答】“作者指出”可以是文章中直接提到的,也可以是作者的言外之意,要結(jié)合文章判斷四個(gè)選項(xiàng)本身是否正確。A)“保留現(xiàn)金是避免風(fēng)險(xiǎn)的唯一方式”,作者鼓勵(lì)合理投資,顯然這不是作者意思;B)“你持有股票越久,你損失越大。”這句話本身有誤,文章中也沒有提及;C)“高利潤(rùn)和高風(fēng)險(xiǎn)在股票市場(chǎng)中同時(shí)存在”,這正是第三段中“stocks pay higher returns but are more risky.”意思,所以正確;D)“積累財(cái)富最好的方式是投資股票”,作者在文章最后明確指出“如果你長(zhǎng)期不需要用錢,就投資股票;如果你短期要用,就投資債券和現(xiàn)金!彼栽擁(xiàng)也不正確。

【詳細(xì)解答】首先細(xì)想一下全文的內(nèi)容概要,再看四個(gè)選項(xiàng)。A)“統(tǒng)計(jì)學(xué)的發(fā)展與應(yīng)用”,正是文章所講的主要內(nèi)容;B)“描述性統(tǒng)計(jì)”的起源,只說(shuō)了文章中很小的一個(gè)方面;C)“推理統(tǒng)計(jì)方法的局限性”,文章中沒有提及;D)“統(tǒng)計(jì)的重要性”,不是本文的重點(diǎn)。綜合比較,A)正確。
32.【答案】B。
【譯文】描述和列表與____相關(guān)?
【試題分析】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。找到文章中相關(guān)的內(nèi)容,理解其含義,然后做答。
【詳細(xì)解答】從文章的第二段可以得知,描述和列表是描述性統(tǒng)計(jì)方法的兩種形式。再看四個(gè)選項(xiàng)。A)“推理性統(tǒng)計(jì)”,沒有任何關(guān)系;B)“描述性統(tǒng)計(jì)”,正好相關(guān);C)“可能性理論”,從第一段末可知,該理論是用于推理性統(tǒng)計(jì)的;D)“計(jì)算的無(wú)效”,與文章內(nèi)容不符。故選B)。
33.【答案】C。
【譯文】關(guān)于描述性統(tǒng)計(jì)下列哪一個(gè)陳述是正確的?
【試題分析】分析判斷題。對(duì)比分析,存真去偽。
【詳細(xì)解答】仔細(xì)比較四個(gè)選項(xiàng)。A)“它將數(shù)量變量和質(zhì)量變量結(jié)合起來(lái)了”,這誤解了第二段中第二句話“either...or...”句型,要么是數(shù)量變量,要么是質(zhì)量變量;B)“它只能用來(lái)處理數(shù)量變量”,也與上面句型含義相悖;C)“它有助于總結(jié)一組數(shù)據(jù)的特征”,這正是第二段最后一句話“Large masses of data... the properties of an otherwise unwieldy mass of data.”的含義;D)“它有助于使用觀察抽樣進(jìn)行預(yù)測(cè)”,這是推理性統(tǒng)計(jì)。所以選C)。
34.【答案】B。
【譯文】與第二段中“unwieldy” 單詞意思最接近的是____
【試題分析】猜測(cè)詞義題。通過(guò)上下文的含義猜測(cè)生詞的詞義,將四個(gè)選項(xiàng)分別放到原句子中去比較也不失為一種好辦法。
【詳細(xì)解答】第二段最后一句話“Large masses of data... the properties of an otherwise unwieldy mass of data.”的意思是說(shuō),大量的數(shù)據(jù)群必須要有一個(gè)總結(jié)或減收的過(guò)程,以從可能是亂七八糟的數(shù)據(jù)群中找出其特征,關(guān)鍵詞是otherwise,表示前后有個(gè)對(duì)比?梢姾竺嫣峒暗膗nwieldy mass of data是難以處理的數(shù)據(jù)。再看四個(gè)選項(xiàng):A)“難以收集”,文章沒有提收集;B)“難以處理”,與上下文正好相符;C)“不可理解的”,前面說(shuō)將它們整理成容易理解的形式,可見它們還是“可以理解的”;D)“不可控制的”,與句意不符。故選B)。
35.【答案】A。
【譯文】人口抽樣經(jīng)常用于下列目的,哪一項(xiàng)除外?
【試題分析】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。找到文章中關(guān)于人口抽樣的內(nèi)容,再進(jìn)行比較選擇。但要注意選的是除外的那一項(xiàng)。
【詳細(xì)解答】文章最后一段講到抽樣100個(gè)小孩來(lái)進(jìn)行分析預(yù)測(cè)。A)“進(jìn)行更加準(zhǔn)確的趨勢(shì)預(yù)測(cè)”,抽樣本身就不可能是為了更加“準(zhǔn)確”,所以A錯(cuò),應(yīng)該選A。B)“提高效率,避免不必要工作”,這正是抽樣的作用;C)“省去找每個(gè)成員的麻煩”,這也正是人口抽樣的優(yōu)勢(shì);D)“預(yù)測(cè)全體人群的特征”,正是人口抽樣的目的。所以選A)。
Passage Four
內(nèi)容概要:
本文介紹了機(jī)器人在日本的迅速發(fā)展和廣泛應(yīng)用。機(jī)器人在實(shí)際工作崗位上可以替代工人完成大量的工作,并表現(xiàn)出諸多的優(yōu)勢(shì)。正因?yàn)闄C(jī)器人的優(yōu)點(diǎn),日本人通常要舉行隆重的儀式歡迎機(jī)器人投入工廠作業(yè)。日本著名的機(jī)器人專家伊納巴博士發(fā)明了大量機(jī)器人,正夢(mèng)想著統(tǒng)治全世界的機(jī)器人行業(yè)。
36.【答案】B。
【譯文】根據(jù)作者的觀點(diǎn),下列哪一項(xiàng)對(duì)于日本人來(lái)講是不正確的?
【試題分析】分析判斷題。通讀全文,并仔細(xì)比較四個(gè)選項(xiàng);但要注意選擇不正確的那一項(xiàng)。
【詳細(xì)解答】在理解全文的基礎(chǔ)上,比較四個(gè)選項(xiàng)。A)是第一段第三句話的原話,所以正確;B)“機(jī)器人意味著人們不必從事骯臟和吵鬧的工作”,與第一段第四句話含義有所區(qū)別,原文是說(shuō),有了機(jī)器人人們就沒有必要“忍受(put up with)骯臟、吵鬧的工作,所以B與原文意思不完全一致;C)和D)也是文章中所提及的。相比較,A)、C)和D)都是文章中的原話,只有B)不符原意。故選B。
37.【答案】C。
【譯文】“他在為機(jī)器人舉行典禮儀式時(shí),說(shuō)這樣的話‘歡迎光臨我們的這位同事,我們希望你能幫助他安頓下來(lái)!瘺]有一個(gè)人笑”,從這句話可以推斷出什么?
【試題分析】細(xì)節(jié)推理題。理解這句話的含義,然后推理出其中的深層含義,可進(jìn)行比較選擇。
【詳細(xì)解答】這句話是對(duì)上帝說(shuō)的。在場(chǎng)的人都很肅穆,沒有一個(gè)人笑,說(shuō)明日本人在這種場(chǎng)合表現(xiàn)出虔誠(chéng),這是對(duì)機(jī)器人的一種尊敬。四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中,C)最符合原意。日本人不笑并不能說(shuō)明他們沒有幽默感,也不是沒有聽懂牧師的話,他們的尊敬也沒有過(guò)頭,所以A)、B)、D)均不符題意。
38.【答案】A。
【譯文】下列關(guān)于FANUC的陳述哪一個(gè)不正確?
【試題分析】分析判斷題。
【詳細(xì)解答】文章倒數(shù)第二段中提到FANUC,這是日本一家專門研制機(jī)器人的公司。A)“工人們?cè)诩影鄷r(shí)會(huì)有更高的回報(bào)”,可是文章中有一句話:“However, workers are expected to put in demanding unpaid overtime.”這種overtime是unpaid(沒有報(bào)酬的),所A不正確。B)、C)、D)選項(xiàng)均為文章中的原話。故選A)。
39.【答案】A。
【譯文】“我們禁不住這樣認(rèn)為,如果他也想到將他的機(jī)器人設(shè)計(jì)為邊工作邊吹口哨,那么他統(tǒng)治全世界機(jī)器人行業(yè)和相關(guān)應(yīng)用的夢(mèng)想就會(huì)更加?jì)寡诺貙?shí)現(xiàn)!毕铝心木湓挷皇怯蛇@段文字推斷出來(lái)的?
【試題分析】分析判斷題。
【詳細(xì)解答】這段文字中think的賓語(yǔ)從句中使用的是虛擬語(yǔ)氣,表示不可能的假設(shè),同時(shí)對(duì)Inada沒有想到這樣做表示一種遺憾和惋惜。A)是表示我們的技術(shù)還不足以讓Inada實(shí)現(xiàn)夢(mèng)想,原文中是說(shuō)他的夢(mèng)想會(huì)更加?jì)寡诺貙?shí)現(xiàn),意即他的夢(mèng)想已經(jīng)實(shí)現(xiàn),所以A錯(cuò);B)和C)均是說(shuō)他的夢(mèng)想太現(xiàn)實(shí),缺乏人性,他設(shè)計(jì)的機(jī)器人并沒有邊工作邊吹口哨(這代表一種休閑的工作方式),而作者認(rèn)為這樣,所以B和C均對(duì);D)是說(shuō)作者贊同Inada博士的夢(mèng)想,從文字的語(yǔ)氣中可以得知作者是希望他實(shí)現(xiàn)夢(mèng)想的,而且還提出了更好地實(shí)現(xiàn)夢(mèng)想的建議,所以D也對(duì)。根據(jù)題意的要求,選A。
40.【答案】B。
【譯文】“歡迎光臨我們的這位同事,我們希望你能幫助他安頓下來(lái)!边@句話中的“co-worker”指什么?
【試題分析】猜測(cè)詞義題。根據(jù)上下文猜測(cè)文中的指代名詞,這需要分析這個(gè)指代名詞的真正所指。
【詳細(xì)解答】這句話中,這位同事(co-worker)顯然與后半句中的“他”是同指,“他”安頓下來(lái),那么“他”指什么呢?結(jié)合這是機(jī)器人投入使用的典禮儀式,是誰(shuí)安頓下來(lái)呢?顯然就是即將投入使用的機(jī)器人。所以“這位同事”(co-worker)是指即將投入使用的機(jī)器人,即B。

【詳細(xì)解答】minimal常表示較小的,maximal指最大的,最高的,minimum常置于名詞之前,表示“最低限度、最低值”,maximum則指最大量,或最多的。根據(jù)詞意,我們可以排除表示“最高的”B、D兩個(gè)選項(xiàng);minimal多指數(shù)量上的較小,minimum是最常用的表示最低限度的詞,且置于名詞前面。
42.【答案】B。

【譯文】許多酒館有一些稀奇古怪的名字,像“紅獅”或“豬和口哨”;他們還經(jīng)常在店外的布告牌上掛上圖片來(lái)對(duì)店名進(jìn)行圖解。
【試題分析】單詞辨析題。這是一組動(dòng)詞,應(yīng)著重區(qū)分其詞義。
【詳細(xì)解答】justify“證明…是正當(dāng)?shù)摹;illustrate“舉例說(shuō)明,圖解, 加插圖于,闡明”;modify“更改, 修改”;clarify“澄清,闡明”。
66.【答案】B。
【譯文】使第五代計(jì)算機(jī)成為現(xiàn)實(shí),還需有兩個(gè)主要的必備條件;這就是科學(xué)家們正在解決的問(wèn)題。
【試題分析】單詞辨析題。此題主要考查考生對(duì)幾個(gè)考綱動(dòng)詞的掌握情況,要求考生能熟知詞意,并能做出正確的判斷和選擇。
【詳細(xì)解答】anticipate“預(yù)期,期望,預(yù)訂,預(yù)見,可以預(yù)料”;tackle“解決,處理(問(wèn)題)”;manipulate“(熟練地)操作, 使用(機(jī)器等),操縱(人或市價(jià)、市場(chǎng)),利用,應(yīng)付,假造”;speculate“推測(cè),思索,做投機(jī)買賣”。依題意此處應(yīng)是“處理”和“解決問(wèn)題”之意,排除A、C、D項(xiàng),則只有B項(xiàng)最合適。
67.【答案】D。
【譯文】這座城市的大學(xué)生已經(jīng)建立起一個(gè)“空氣清潔社團(tuán)”,來(lái)幫助市民提高對(duì)于我們所處(大氣)環(huán)境的威脅的認(rèn)識(shí)。
【試題分析】單詞辨析題。四個(gè)選項(xiàng)可以分為兩組,每組中兩個(gè)詞在詞義上非常接近,區(qū)別甚微。
【詳細(xì)解答】conditions“存在的環(huán)境”;situation“形勢(shì),局勢(shì),局面,情況,境遇,處境”;danger“危險(xiǎn),危險(xiǎn)物,威脅”;threat“ 兇兆,威脅”。此處,根據(jù)句子意思,應(yīng)是“意識(shí)到對(duì)環(huán)境的威脅”之意,只能在C、D之間做出判斷;danger一般指事物本身的危險(xiǎn),而沒有威脅的意思,再考慮到后面的介詞to,按照搭配習(xí)慣,答案應(yīng)是D。
68.【答案】A。
【譯文】如果你輕微灼傷,倒點(diǎn)冷水在傷口上,這將有助于緩解燒灼之痛。
【試題分析】單詞辨析題。這是一組以re-開頭的動(dòng)詞,在詞義上非常相近。
【詳細(xì)解答】relieve“減輕,解除,緩解”;relax“使松弛,緩和,使松懈,使休息”;reveal“展現(xiàn),顯示,揭示,暴露”;release“釋放,解放,放棄,讓與,免除”。根據(jù)句子意思,此處應(yīng)選A,表示“緩解、解除、減輕”之意。
69.【答案】B。
譯文 :這個(gè)圖書館將最近公眾可以借閱的書籍匯編成一本名集出版了。
【試題分析】單詞辨析題。這是一組均以acc-開頭的形容詞。

70.【答案】C。
【譯文】在她丈夫去世的14年里,她視其生活的唯一意義為養(yǎng)育她的兒子和保護(hù)她丈夫的作品。
【試題分析】單詞辨析題。
【詳細(xì)解答】due“應(yīng)得的,應(yīng)付的,正當(dāng)?shù),預(yù)期的”;lone“孤獨(dú)的,獨(dú)立的”;sole“單獨(dú)的,唯一的”;keen“鋒利的,敏銳的,敏捷的,熱心的,渴望的”。根據(jù)句意此處應(yīng)填“唯一的”意思,其它單詞之意與題意不符,故只能選C。
Part Ⅳ
71.redistributing改為redistribute。attempt to 后面一般接動(dòng)詞原型,而不接動(dòng)名詞,因?yàn)檫@里的to是不定式符號(hào),而不是介詞,即attempt to do sth.。
72.you 改為others。此句是說(shuō),如果一部分相對(duì)比較窮,那么一部分人就會(huì)相對(duì)比較富。將人群分為兩部分,此處就不能用you,others才可以表示人群的一部分。
73.在interests和than中間加上rather。此句不是表示比較(than),而是表示轉(zhuǎn)折(公眾政策反映他們的利益,而不是窮人的利益),所以應(yīng)該用rather than (而不是)代替than。
74.doing改為done。此句是被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài),表示“臟活被完成”,get 是系動(dòng)詞,所以應(yīng)用do的過(guò)去分詞形式done。
75.will改為would。此句使用了虛擬語(yǔ)氣,表示對(duì)現(xiàn)在情況的假設(shè),所以主句應(yīng)用would。
76.cookers改為cooks。廚師是cook,而不cooker。cooker指炊具,與后面的“gardener(園。゛nd other workers”不一致,所以應(yīng)改為廚師(cook)。
77.when改為while。此處不是表示時(shí)間上的同時(shí)性,而是表示兩種情形的對(duì)比,“一些人在做……,而另一些人在做……”。表示對(duì)比的連詞一般用while。
78.去掉more。inferior本身就表示“低級(jí)的”,已經(jīng)構(gòu)成了比較形式,所以前面一般不能再加more。
79.competent 改為incompetent。此句講的是窮人所能享受的服務(wù),過(guò)期的面包、報(bào)廢的汽車,還有不合格的醫(yī)生和律師所提供的建議。如果是competent,則成了合格的醫(yī)生和律師所提供的建議,那么與整句意思不符。
80.去掉in。此句中的which引導(dǎo)非限定性定語(yǔ)從句,作influence和change的直接賓語(yǔ),因?yàn)閕nfluence和change均為及物動(dòng)詞,所以不能加in。
Part Ⅴ
寫作指導(dǎo):
這是一篇限制性提綱作文。由于已經(jīng)給出了寫作主題和段落模式,所以必須緊扣標(biāo)題,嚴(yán)格遵守提綱,達(dá)到規(guī)定字?jǐn)?shù)。構(gòu)思時(shí)結(jié)構(gòu)一定要清晰,建議使用四段式,第一段綜述,第二、三段分述,第四段做總結(jié),二、三段是重點(diǎn)?蓪⑻峋V中的兩點(diǎn)作為第二段和第三段的主題句,但不要逐字翻譯,然后再找2~3個(gè)與主題相關(guān)的素材展開說(shuō)明。另外還需注意:①寫好第一句話。這樣容易給閱卷者留下一個(gè)好印象,最好能用上一個(gè)漂亮的復(fù)合句,里面再用上2~3個(gè)難的單詞或詞組,但不能出錯(cuò)。②在寫作時(shí)盡量多用長(zhǎng)句,少用短句,適當(dāng)加入幾個(gè)結(jié)構(gòu)較復(fù)雜的句子?啥嘤眠B接性的詞組或單詞,如first, second, moreover, for one thing...for another, on the one hand...on the other hand等等。可以把它們置于段首或文中比較顯著的位置,這樣會(huì)使文章更具條理性。③注意結(jié)尾的時(shí)候要點(diǎn)題,把自己的觀點(diǎn)明確說(shuō)出來(lái)。文章不要寫得太長(zhǎng),這樣容易引起閱卷者的反感,達(dá)到字?jǐn)?shù)就可以了。④如有可能,適當(dāng)加上一兩句名言或是諺語(yǔ),以顯示你的水平。最后要注意沒有語(yǔ)法錯(cuò)誤,并保持卷面干凈整潔。
本文可以這樣寫:首先第一段介紹在生活和工作節(jié)奏不斷加快的今天,人們會(huì)碰到各種各樣的個(gè)人危機(jī),如:工作事業(yè)上的,婚戀家庭上的,人際關(guān)系上的等等;第二段則按照提綱中的第一點(diǎn)重點(diǎn)分析造成個(gè)人危機(jī)的起因,主要有自身處理事物能力不足,外部環(huán)境較為不利,以及運(yùn)氣不佳等等;第三段則根據(jù)提綱中第二點(diǎn)提出應(yīng)對(duì)個(gè)人危機(jī)的方法,要根據(jù)第二段中的起因來(lái)提應(yīng)對(duì)方法,可以寫需要個(gè)人有堅(jiān)強(qiáng)的意志毅力和不懈的努力奮斗,積極改善外部環(huán)境,善于抓住機(jī)遇;第四段可以適應(yīng)發(fā)揮,進(jìn)一步闡明自己的觀點(diǎn),并提出希望。
當(dāng)然,也可以按照提綱就寫兩段,只要說(shuō)清問(wèn)題即可。
參考范文:
How to Deal with Personal Crisis
Since different person may come across different crisis, it is difficult to answer why personal crisis will happen and what leads to the situation. It depends. But the main origins and causes can be concluded in the following three aspects: lack of strong mind and personal incompetence to overcome difficulty, disadvantageous surroundings, and bad luck. Only when one person does well in all these three aspects, can he or she avoid personal crisis.
But anyway, All is not lost that is in danger. Every cloud has a silver lining. One will surely come out from the crisis if he masters the right methods. At first, he should envisage the crisis with the right eye. And then, he should be strongly-minded and be perseverant all the time. Thirdly, he should try his best to improve relation with his boss, colleagues, partners, friends, and his family members in order to get a better surrounding. At last, he should try to grasp every chance to make progress. In this way, the crisis can be transferred to success.
