道小题，共

分）
1.
We are sorry that we had to ask the
young man to leave the job. It was not that he was
unpopular with the other people in the
office. Everyone liked him. Nor was it that he was
incapable. He had plenty of abilities.
The problem was that so much of his work was
unsatisfactory; it wasn’t good enough.
Sometimes he would leave a job unfinished, and
never come back to complete it. Other
times, his writing would be so illegible that you
couldn’t read it. Or he might disappear
from the off
ice for an hour or so with
no
explanation of where he had been.
Once or twice he sat unoccupied for a while, doing
nothing at all, until someone noticed
him and gave him some work. I supposed he felt
that
we had mistreated him, that we had
not been fair to
him, but I didn’t
think we had
misjudged him. We didn’t
make up our minds until we had given him every
chance to
show what he could do.
However, I confessed that it made me uncomfortable
to have to
tell him that he had lost
his job. A person sent to us by an employment
agency would
replace him the next
week.

提示：
[1]C.
细节题。本题问“根据文章来看，这个年
轻人被辞退的原因
是
________
。”中心词是“was asked to leave the job”。答案在文章
的第
6
、
7
、
8
、
9
、<
/p>
10
句。这几句大意是“问题是，他做的很多工作都不
令人满意，做得都不够好。有些时候，他不能工作做了一般就不做了。还
有
些时候，他的字迹太潦草了，别人都无法辨认。或者，他干脆不打招呼
的从办公室消失个
把小时。
有一两次，
他坐在那里无所事事，
直到有人注
意到他然后告诉他要做写什么。”据此可知答案是
C
（他没有责任心）。
A
的意思是“
他不受大家欢迎。”B
的意思是“他没有能力。”D
的意思
是“他做事太慢。”
[2]A.
词汇题。本提问“文章中的‘illegible’这个词的意思是
__
_____
。”解决词汇题的思路是要找到该词语出现的那个句子，一般句
子当中会有解释。
如果该句无法提供足够的信息来解决问题，
那么我们可
以再看一看其前后句。据此，我们先找到“illegible”出
现的句子。该
句大意是“还有些时候，
他的字迹太
_______
，
别人都无法辨认。
”据此，
我们可以判断这个年轻人的字迹肯定是不太好认的，所以答案就是
A
（很
难或者无法辨认）
< br>。
B
的意思是“容易辨认”，
C
的意思是“很容易书写”，
D
的意思是
“很难或者无法书写”。
[3]A.
是非题。本题问“我们从文章中可以得知，下面那件事情作者没有
做？”是非题要求我们
首先得浏览选项。
A
的意思是“错误的判断这个年
轻人”，
B
的意思是“给了这个年轻人很多机会来展
示自己的能力”，
C
的意思是“观察这个年轻人的工作表现”，
D
的意思是“解释为什么必须
要解雇这
个年轻人”。
A
的中心词是“misjudge”，但是文章的
倒数第四
句表明作者他们并没有错误的判断这个年轻人，所以
A
就是我们的答案。
B
的中心词是“ev
ery chance to show what he could do”，答案在文
章的倒数第
5
句，这句话表明作者他们确实给了这个人很多
机会，所以
B
不是我们的答案。而做完了上面的第
1
题，我们也可以轻松判定
C
和
D
不是此题的答案。
[4]D.
细节题。本题问“告诉这个年轻人被解雇了，作者感到
______
。”
中心词是“tell the
young man he had lost the job”。经过定位，我
们发
现答案在倒数第
2
句。
该句大意是“我
必须承认，
告诉这个年轻人他
被解雇的消息令我感到不舒服。”
据此可知答案是
D
。
[5]B.
细节题。本题问“谁将会在下周接替这个年轻人的职位？”中心词<
/p>
是“take
the
young
man’s
place”，答案在最后一句，该句大意是“一
个职业介绍所已经给我们介绍了一个人，
这个人在下周就会接替
那个年轻
人的职位。”据此可知答案是
B
。
