27、recision.”可知,自动拨号电话成为让人头疼的事情是它的精确性更强了。所以选A项。3.B推理判断题。通读第二、三段可知,技术的进步既给我们的生活带来便利,也给我们的生活造成了麻烦。所以技术是一把双刃剑。故选B项。4.C标题归纳题。通读全文可知,本文第一段提到了自动拨号电话带来的危害,随后两段进一步解释这类电话带给人们危害的原因,倒数第二段阐述了减轻相关危害的方案,最后一段提出信任度难以获得却易失去,并且涉及的相关问题会越来越难解决。这与C项语意相符,所以选C项。【解题导语】本文为应用文。主要介绍了四种不同工作的基本信息。5.A细节理解题。根据FamilyAllianceMealDeliv
28、ery部分的第二段第一句“Allapplicantsmusthaveadriverslicenseandaccesstoacar.”可知,送餐的工作需要驾照,故选A项。6.B细节理解题。根据LancasterDesign部分第二段的最后一句“Candidateswillbematchedwithataskbasedonskillset.”可知,LancasterDesign的工作是根据个人的能力安排的。故选B项。7.C细节理解题。根据LancasterWeekly第二段第一句“Bothadultsandyoungstersaged13+arerequiredtodeliverournewspa
29、per.”可知中学生最有可能被LancasterWeekly雇佣。故选C项。8.D细节理解题。根据ParkviewNursingHome的第一段第二句“Weseekpeoplewhoarepatientandcaring,andwhohaveexperienceandinterestinworkingwitholderadults”可知,ParkviewNursingHome是关于养老院的,所以如果你想和老年人一起工作,应该拨打740-6968399。故选D项。.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章就如何激励自己、保持动力、达成目标提出了几点建议。1.G根据上文提到的“Motivationand
30、goalsettingarethetwosidesofthesamecoin.”以及下文提到的“Likethechildonthedivingboard.”可知,G项可以承接上文。其中motivation和goal为原词复现。2.B根据下文提到的“Morethanthat,howshouldyoustaymotivatedtoachievethegoal?”可知,B项“Sohowshouldyoumotivateyourself?”可承接上下文。3.A根据上文提到的“Therearetimeswhenyourheartisnotinyourwork.”可知,A项“Thiscanaffectyo
31、urwork.”是上文的结果。4.E根据上文提到的“Rememberthatgoalsareflexible.”可知,E项“Theycanchangeaccordingtocircumstances.”是对上文的进一步说明。5.C上文提到“个人情况同等重要”,并以因视力差不能达成当飞行员的目标为例子,再结合下文的“你应该重新评估你的目标,并激励自己去设定一个新的目标”可知,C项和上文构成转折关系,同时起到引起下文的作用。.Dear Jack,Knowing that you are rather interested in Chinese traditional opera,I am writ
