第2题：

资料：It's almost considered sacrilegious today to leave work at the end of your workday or（for shamel）on a Friday and simply not check your email until you return the office during normal working hours.
The constant need to check email is the trade-off the modern workforce has made for the ability to work anytime, anywhere, thanks to smartphones and tablets that keep us always connected.
But three university researchers have found that it's not just doing a bit of work after hours that cause burn out. The true culprit is actually the constant worrying about off-hour email.
A new study "Exhausted But Unable to Disconnect." by Lehigh University's Liuba Belkin, Virginia Tech’s William Becker and Colorado State University's Samantha Conroy shows that employees are growing exhausted by the expectation that they will always be available, never knowing what kind of work requests will asked of them off hours.
Typically, companies don't mean to stress employees out like that. Most companies don't have formal policies that say people must answer work emails after-hours. （expect, perhaps, in cases where an employee is on call during specific times）.
But policies and culture tend to be two different things. If supervisors routinely email employee after hours and expect a fast response （often because their supervisors are doing the same to them）, then the message is clear: whenever the boss emails, the employee is expected to be available.
The solution is for bosses to tell employees that an after-hours email doesn't necessarily require a response before the next work day, and to also set some times when after-hours emailing is considered acceptable and prohibited, such as no emails via the dinner hour, on weekends, or after 10 p. m, the researchers say.

What would you do if you were the policy maker of a company?

A.To require an instant respond for after-hour emailing.
B.To abandon after-hour emailing.
C.To tell employees that an after-hours email doesn't necessarily require a response.
D.To limit the time of after-hour emailing.

答案：D

【主题句】第一自然段It's almost considered sacrilegious today to leave work at the end of your workday or（for shamel）on a Friday and simply not check your email until you return the office during normal working hours.在工作日结束时离开工作，或者（对于Shamel）在周五离开工作，直到你在正常工作时间返回办公室，才会检查你的电子邮件，这几乎被认为是该“遭天谴”的行为。
【解析】题目意为“从第一自然段可以推断出什么？”选项A意为“如果你一直查看邮件，那就太遗憾了”；选项B意为“员工们愿意在工作日的最后一天离开工作”；选项C意为“虽然不是工作时间，但员工们还是被期望回复邮件”；选项D意为“工作邮件是员工日常生活的一部分” ，根据主题句，重返公司后才查看邮件的行为是有些“遭天谴”的，因此推断可知，即使在工作时间，员工也被期望回复邮件。
故选C。

第10题：

单选题

Covington College has four full-time Classics professors, but only 12 Classics majors. This three-to-one student-to-professor ratio is the lowest in the college. Since the college is facing financial difficulties, and since the tuition fees from just 12 students is not sufficient to pay the salaries of 4 full-time professors, the college should cancel the Classics program to reduce expenses.　 Which of the following, if true, most weakens the conclusion above?

A

Professors in the Classics department teach popular language and literature classes that are attended by hundreds of students who are not Classics majors.

B

Students at Covington College pay, on average, $22,500 per year in tuition and fees, while the average professor of humanities receives a salary of $61,500 per year.

C

A well-regarded Classics program adds prestige to a college or university.

D

The Classics department has already decreased in size from six full-time professors 10 years ago.

E

The study of classical literature and languages is increasingly irrelevant to the high-tech workplace of today.

正确答案： A

解析：
因为学校认为Classic Major的12名学生的学费不足以支付4名全职教授的工资，所以要将Classic Major取消，所以A项（4名Classic Major的教授的基础语言和文学课程有几百名非本专业的学生参加）可以削弱这个结论，故本题选A项。

A: If I were you, I’d ride a bike to work. Taking a crowded bus during rush hours is really terrible.　　B: ______

A

Yeah, riding a bike is a healthful activity. Don’t you think?

B

Yes, you’re right. Buses are always very crowded during the rush hours.

C

Thank you for your advice. But my bike has got a flat tyre.

D

Certainly. I don’t see why so many people go to work by bus rather than by bike.

正确答案： C

解析：
A方用虚拟语气婉转地建议B方不应坐车上班，而应骑车。A项与A方所谈的内容不一致；B项并未表示接受对方忠告与否；D项与A方所说的话更无关系。

Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A

The workers in Finland are paid by the hour.

B

The bosses in Finland are too busy to check the working hours of their employees.

C

The workers are always honest with their working hours.

D

The workers and their bosses will make an agreement in advance about the pay.

正确答案： A

解析：
根据文意可知，芬兰的老板不检查雇员的工作时间是出于对雇员的信任，而不是太忙顾不上。因此B项不正确。由倒数第二段首句“The Finnish workers are paid by the hour.”，可知A项正确。由最后一段中间部分“And workers always give an honest account of the exact hours they put in.”，可知C项“工人很诚实”正确。由倒数第二段第二句“They are … they have agreed with the boss on the rate.”可知个人和老板会事先就工资达成协议，所以D项也是正确的。因此本题答案为B。

Regular part-time work is ______.

A

always easily found.

B

not always available.

C

sufficient to pay for tuition fees.

D

20 hours during full-time vacation.

正确答案： B

解析：
根据题干关键词Regular part-time work定位到原文第七段。首先根据第一句“under... during term time and full-time during vacation”可知留学生在假期允许全天工作，所以D项错误。根据第二句“It is impossible for students to expect to earn sufficient funds working part-time to Pay for tuition fees and living costs”, 可知选项C是错误的。根据第三句“such work is not always regular even when available”可知A项兼职工作是很容易找到的说法是错误的。因此根据排除法可以正确答案应该是B。
