23、a考点规范练22(必修5Unit2).【解题导语】这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲述的是在工作中,公开讨论工资问题并不是个好主意,并解释了保密工资信息的好处。1.A细节理解题。根据文章第三段关键句“Youshouldruntheriskofcausingadistancebetweenyouandyourcolleaguesiftheylearnyouearnmoreforwhattheythinktobethesamejob.”可知,如果同事知道在他们认为相同的工作中你挣的钱更多,他们可能会渐渐疏远你,你们之间可能会产生距离。由此可知,如果你的同事知道你的薪水更高,他们可能会对你不那么友好。故选A
24、项。2.C细节理解题。根据文章第四段可知,工资的秘密性质为管理者创造了一个机会,可以让他们与员工进行个人讨论,让员工与主管建立了一种“特殊”关系,而不让其他人参与其中。由此可知,保密工资信息的好处是这给了管理者一个与你沟通的机会。故选C项。3.D推理判断题。根据文章最后一段关键句“Ifyoulearnthatsomeonewhoholdsasimilarpositionearnsabiggerpaycheck,dontpanic.First,dosomeduediligencetodetermineifyouarebeingunderpaidingeneral.”和“Next,youdbett
25、ergotoyourbossandaskthereasons.”可知,本段内容告诉我们如果我们知道一个拥有类似职位的人薪水更高时,我们应该怎么做。由此可知,最后一段的目的是提出解决问题的方法。故选D项。4.B主旨大意题。分析文章并结合文章第一段内容可知,本文主要讲述的是在工作中,公开讨论工资问题并不是个好主意,并解释了保密工资信息的好处。“Salarysecret.”“工资秘密。”能够概括文章主要内容。故选B项。【解题导语】本文主要介绍了伦敦的四个博物馆:伦敦交通博物馆,科学博物馆,自然历史博物馆和伦敦博物馆。5.C推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Housedinhugeironandglasss
26、tructure,themuseumpossesawonderfulandcolourful.”可知,该博物馆属于现代化的建筑。6.D细节理解题。根据最后一部分的“.packedwithhistoricobjectsandexhibitionstellingthestoryofLondonspast.”可知,对伦敦历史感兴趣,要参观伦敦博物馆。7.B细节理解题。根据第三段中的“See,touchandexperiencethemajorscientificadvancesofthelast300years.”可知,该博物馆给孩子们提供动手的机会。.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍打包行李
27、的方法和注意事项。1.F根据下文的“Onceyouseehowmuchyoulayinfrontofyou,.”可知,F项“把你想带走的东西都放在床上”可引出后面的具体做法。2.C根据上文的“Onceyourshoesarefirmlyinplace,fillsmallgapswithverysoftitems.”可知,一旦把鞋子固定好,用非常软的东西来填补小的空隙。C项这个想法将创造一个平坦的第一层。符合语境。3.D根据上文的“Putthenextclothesontopofthis,butplacethemtheotherwayaround.”可知,在这上面放下一批衣服,但是把它们放在另一
28、边。D项“之后继续放置衣服”同样是介绍放衣服的步骤。4.G根据本段的小标题“Wheretoputnon-clothing?”可知,本段介绍的是怎么放置非布料类的物品的技巧。G项中的“Non-clothing”可构成同词复现。5.A根据上文的“Ifyoutakeabelt,slipthemalongtheinsideofyourcase.”以及下文的“Thatwilltakemorespace.”可知,A项“不要把皮带卷起来”和下文构成因果关系。其中“belt”为同词复现。.Dear Tom,How time flies!Next week is your birthday.Happy birt
