28、es more money lead to greater productivity？ The workers themselves certainly think this is _17_. But perhaps they want more money only because the work they do is so boring. _18_ just lets them enjoy their spare time more. A _19_ argument may explain demands for shorter working hours.

33、ll over the world 意为“全世界”。全世界数百万的人每年咀嚼数十亿块口香糖。2. C。because of 意为“因为”，后接名词等。3. B。先行词 William Wrigley 指人，因此引导非限制性定语从句并在从句中作主语的关系代词用 who。4. A。in the year 1870= in 1870，意为“在 1870年”。5. A。not until强调句结构，由“It is / was + not until +that + 其他部分”构成。6. C。根据下文内容可知 Wrigley 喜欢大规模地做事。7. A。spendin doing sth 意为“花费时间

34、或金钱干某事”。8. B。根据上文可推知答案。他花费巨资做广告，几年来，美国每辆路面电车上都有Wrigley的广告。9. B。由上文内容可知，人们对此有些抱怨。10. C。anywhere 可用于疑问句、否定句或 if 引导的条件状语从句中，意为“任何地方”。11. B。Wrigley 甚至把口香糖免费送给姓名出现在美国每个城镇的电话薄里的每个人。12. A。在电话簿里用介词 in。13. A。be good for 意为“对有益”。最后他開始登广告说咀嚼口香糖对健康有好处。14. B。咀嚼口香糖有助于保持牙齿清洁。15. A。能够修饰单数名词 child 的选项只有A。16. B。他雇用了一

35、些年轻女性。17. C。根据常识可知那些年轻女性是站在街道拐角处向过往的人赠送口香糖。18. C。in this way 为习惯用语，意为“这样，以这种方式”。19. A。以这种方式，每个女性每天赠送约5000块口香糖。20. B。由于这种煞费苦心的广告，美国人开始买越来越多的咀嚼口香糖了。（二）本文主要讲不同国家门的由于其功能不同，所以使用方式也不同。1. 答案为A。根据本段的第一句可推知答案。2. 答案为C。根据本段的第一句可知，门的功能不同导致了文化差异。3. 答案为D。根据第一段可知，本文主要是谈论各个国家“门”文化的不同;对比根据前段中Doors may havefunctions和

36、本句话后面的and they （指代空格内容） had distinct function，不难得出答案是D;另外，后面的第25题处也暗示此题只能选D。4. 答案为A。由于是与 go out of the building 相对，所以应是 enter the building 才对。5. 答案为B。与前面23题的 different doors 相对，显然此处应是 the same door。注意：第25题和第23题可以互相参照。6. 答案为D。根据前一段中的This was new （not familiar， not experienced before ） to me 可知，对我来说，门

37、的使用方式“也”很陌生（注：与new同义应是strange）”。7. 答案为B。根据由与之前列的 and students who were getting on should get on可推知答案。8. 答案为B。根据前面的first同时结合常识可知答案，即先下后上。9. 答案为C。由前文可知，因韩国不必等别人下了再上的习惯，作者习惯这样了，所以看到校车将门打开后，就“无意识地”上车了。10. 答案为A。由于周围所有的人都看着自己，自然就“感到尴尬”了，所以脸也就红了。（三）本文讲述了小甜饼的含义，如果你拥有了小甜饼，一切都一帆风顺，但是小甜饼总是不断变换着它的角色，像是金钱、权力和欲望。

38、有时为了防止它破碎或者确定别人不会从你手中夺走它，你不得不放弃许多东西。所以拥有小甜饼并不是生活的全部内容1. C。由下一句If you had the cookie， things were good，可知此处应指拥有小甜饼是一种幸福（happiness）。weakness意为“软弱，弱点”，sadness意为“悲哀”，tiredness意为“疲劳”。2. A。worth意为“值得”，waste意为“浪费”，cost意为“花费”，afford意为“负担的起”，此处应为life wasnt worth a damn，意思是生活一文不值。3. C。从Some of the time it was

39、 money， sometimes power， sometimes sex，可知此处指小甜饼一直处在不听改变中，4. B。other意为“其他的”，符合此处语境。another表示“另一的”，后面应接单数名词，故排除，the other表示“剩下的”，是两个其中的“另一个”，others表示“有些”，与some相对。5. D。contract指“核桃，契约”，此处应指小甜饼有时表现为一份数额最大的合同，故答案为D。6. A。因为被诊断出患有癌症，从后面的话可以看出当时他很悲观，所以应是摇（shake）着头说的。press意为“压，按”，shock意为“震动”，nod意为“点头”。7. C。根

40、据后文内容，此处应指长大以后好像就不知道怎样生活了，stop learning指“停止了学习”。8. B。通过后面If I take the cookie away or it _9_， he is unhappy，可知此处应为happy，两句表示对比。9. D。由The minute you have the cookie it starts to crumble（碎裂）可知，此處为与crumble意义相近的词，几个选项中，只有break意为“破裂”，符合要求。10. A。此处应指我花了这么长的时间才明白小甜饼并不能使我长久感到幸福，understand意为“了解，明白”。11. C。car

41、e about意为“关心”，bring about意为“引起，使发生”，think about意为“思考”，worry about意为“担心”，这里指担心小甜饼会碎裂，C项最为符合此处语境。12. B。give up 表示“放弃”，此处指为了小甜饼不得不放弃许多东西。build up 意为“树立，增进”，clear up意为“整理，消除”，keep up意为“保持”。13. D。分析题意。这里应是确定别人不会从你手中夺走它，be sure表示“确信”。14. A。你甚至没有时间享受它，因为你一直忙于不让自己失去它，后一句应是前一句的原因，故答案为because。15. C。由cancer ha

42、s changed him和For the first time he is happy可知，此时他是非常乐观的，因此是笑着说。16. D。全文第一句One of my patients， a successful businessman可知，这位病人是个商人，此处应指不论他的生意是否一帆风顺，故答案选D。17. B。此处应指什么才是真正重要的，really意为“真正地，实在地”，最为符合此处语境，pretty意为“很，非常”。18. A。any more意为“再，还”，any way 意为“无论如何”any old意为“随便什么都”，any one意为“任何一个的”，这里意为“无论如何你都拥

43、有生命”最为恰当。19. D。have something to do with的意思是“与有关”，其中something可以替代，这里放在否定句中，因此使用anything，表示无关。20. B。比较几个选项，trouble意为“使烦恼”，pauses意为“停顿”，disturb意为“扰乱，打搅”，introduce意为“介绍”，从后面的内容看，此处应指他若有所思地停顿了一下，故答案为B。（四）本文主要是围绕如何提高工人的生产力展开的。1. A。前面说“许多国家面临这种问题，就是如何才能使工人生产力高”，一些专家说“该问题的答案就是使工作多样性”。2. B。作者发出质疑，“工作多样性就能导致

44、更大的生产力吗”。lead to“导致”。3. C。由句子it doesnt _4_ make him work harder可知前面的连词表示“尽管”之意。4. D。本句话意思是“有迹象表明尽管多样性能够使工人的生活更具有享受性，但实际上它并不能使工人们更努力地工作”。actually“实际上”。5. A。上面介绍了“多样性”这个话题，所以现在予以总结“多样性不是重要的因素”。6. B。由后面的解释to do his job in his own way，可知“这是一种自由的表现形式”。7. C。本句话中that从句中的内容是存在的一个“问题”。8. D。复杂的机械有一套“固定的”使用方法。

45、fixed“固定的”。9. B。根据意思“尽管选择的自由可能重要，通常不能有为选择它做什么。”create“做”。10. C。上文提到“给工人们更多的自由”，这是专家所考虑的一个方案，所以推断是“另外一个重要的考虑”。11. D。本句话意思是“另外一个重要的考虑就是每个工人对他生产的产品贡献了多少”。12. D。每个工人只负责产品的某一个环节，所以认为“工人只能看到产品的一个部分”。13. D。提到的作法只不过是一些汽车厂家的实验。14. C。由句子Some car factories are now _13_ with having many small production lines r

46、ather than one large one可知，所填词表示“生产线”比较恰当。15. A。本句话为not onlybut （also）结构。16. A。作者再次提出问题“更多的钱能够带来更大的生产率究竟到什么程度”。extent“程度”。17. B。工人工作主要是为了赚钱，故推断“他们认为上面的提法很重要”。18. C。由句子But perhaps they want more money only because the work they do is so boring. 推测。19. D。“用增加钱的方法来提高生产力”与“要求缩短工作时间来提高生产力”具有“相似”之处。20. B。从“他们既不多要钱，也不想缩短工作时间”，可以推測“是在我们能够把工作变得更有趣的前提下”。succeed in“成功做某事”。
