66、the degree在某种程度上;to the extreme走向极端;在文章第一段中提到了X理论,大多数人都缺乏进取心和责任心,不愿对人和事负责,没有什么雄心壮志,不喜欢负责任,宁可被领导。而Y理论认为大多数人愿意对工作、对他人负责,人们愿意实行自我管理和自我控制来完成应当完成的目标。这是两种完全相反的理论,尽管对于这两种完全相反的理论有很多的证据,很多管理人仍然同意X理论。故A正确。3.考查上下文串联。本句中for example表示举例说明;这些管理人仍然同意X理论,例如他们认为如果要员工效率高,就需要给与他们不断的监督。这属于X理论的举例说明。故B正确。4.考查上下文串联。根据后句“.
67、makes for authoritarian managers.”可知这属于专制的管理方法,他们的决定是来自上而下的,没有任何商量的余地。故D项“above上面的”正确。5.考查上下文串联。根据前段可知本文讨论的管理学的理论,使用本句使用动词“manage管理”,不同的文化中有不同的管理人的方法。而且和下文中亚洲、西方的管理方法形成呼应。故C正确。6.考查动词短语辨析。短语refer to提到,谈到;contribute to做贡献;导致;object to反对;apply to适用于;亚洲人使用的是协商式的管理方法,所有人都被要求对管理的过程做出自己的贡献。故B正确。7.考查上下文串联。名
68、词agreement同意;practice练习,做法;election选举;impression印象;亚洲人使用协商式的管理方法,这种方法是建立在共同的协议基础之上的,西方人也想学习这样的管理方法。故A正确。8.考查上下文串联。根据前半句“.women will become more effective managers than men.”可知有些专家认为女性比男性管理更高效。因为女性更有亲和力,比男性管理人更容易与别人达成一致的目标。故D正确。9.考查上下文串联。根据前句“. encourage employees to use their own initiative.鼓励员工使用自己
69、的首创精神”,也就是说在做出决定的时候不要请示上级经理,自己做出决定即可。故A项正确。10.考查上下文串联。根据前句“the trend towards downsizing缩小规模的趋势”,也就是要减少管理层的数量,可以直接做出决定而不需要请示上级。故动词“reduce减少”符合上下文串联。11.考查短语辨析。动词be honored with被授予;be left 留下,剩下;be crowded with挤满;be compared with与.相比;通过这种方法,公司只剩下高层管理者和前线的与公众直接联系的一线管理人。省略了很多中央环节,提高了管理的效益。故B正确。12.考查副词辨析。
70、副词economically 经济地;traditionally 传统地;inadequately 不充分地;occasionally偶尔地;根据后句“Empowerment and delegation mean new forms of management.” 可知授权管理是一个新型的管理方法,与传统的管理模式不一样。故B正确。13.考查动词辨析。动词deny否认;admit承认;assume假定,设想;ensure保证,确保;授权管理是一种新型的管理方法,省略了中央管理环节,保证了整个商业计划被采用。根据句意可知D正确。14.考查上下文串联。形容词virtual虚拟的;ineffect
71、ive低效的;day-to-day日常的;on-the-scene现场的;根据后句“where teams of people linked by e-mail and the Internet work on projects from their own houses”可知在这种新型的管理方法中,人们都是通过邮件和网络联系,说明这种一种新型通过虚拟网络进行的管理方法。故A正确。15.考查名词辨析。名词opinion观点;risk冒险;performance表现;attractiveness魅力;根据后半句中“ in terms of what they produce for projec
72、ts, rather than the amount of time they spend on them”可知我们评价员工的表现是根据他们的产品而不是工作的时间。故C项正确。 2答案及解析：答案：1.B; 2.A; 3.B; 4.D; 5.C; 6.A; 7.D; 8.C; 9.D; 10.B; 11.A; 12.C; 13.A; 14.C; 15.B; 16.D; 17.A; 18.B; 19.C; 20.B解析： 1.词语辨析题。由上文的两个问句可知，在我的人生辅导课上，我发现了很多问题。students 学生；problems 问题； examples 例子；results 结果。故选
