A篇
Oliver, the CTO of a high-tech company, loved to participate in all conversations at the C-suite level,
regardless of topic. He was often the first to raise his hand for a project, appeared to have infinite capacity
to get high-quality work done, and offered to assist his peers and direct reports. Oliver seemed to be all-in;
更多资料添加微信号：hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺：乐知课堂optimistic, energetic, supportive, and someone who constituted to everyone.
However, the more Oliver participated, the more others around him were slighted. Instead of sparking
creatively in others, his ideas outshone everyone else’s. He consumed time speaking in meetings,
exhausting the oxygen level in the room. Oliver felt pumped up by how many of his ideas had been
deployed but frustrated by others’ lack of sufficient effort.
While the CEO appreciated Oliver’s yield, she recognized he had to change his approach to keep the
rest of the team productive. In response, Oliver worked out a plan to help address his cooperation
challenges using techniques many other executives had deployed.
When we over-participate, we believe that we're being helpful. However, “helpfulness” is defined by
the recipient, not the giver. Instead of improving his relationships with colleagues, Oliver robbed them of
fulfillment by furnishing masses of ideas. They felt discouraged, interrupted, and excluded. To fix the issue,
Oliver learned the value of asking two specific questions before offering his own ideas: “What have you
thought of?” and “What would be most helpful for you at this point?” Surveying others to understand
what’s helpful illuminates better avenues for our contribution: directly through our ideas, through coaching
colleagues to create their own, or by building on what someone else has generated.
22. What can we learn about Oliver?
A. He lacks creativity. B. He favours competition.
C. He works enthusiastically. D. He behaves irresponsibly.
23. What is a result of Oliver’s over-participation?
A. The team generated more diverse ideas.
B. Oliver’s colleagues became less productive.
C. Group meetings were more time-consuming.
D. Oliver’s teammates were inspired to work harder.
24. What technique did Oliver employ to fix the issue?
A. Hearing others’ voices. B. Providing specific ideas.
C. Strengthening his leadership. D. Building strong relationships.
25. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. When Leaders Fail to Keep the Team Productive
B. When Contributing Gets in the Way of Cooperating
C. How a Great Team Welcomes Ideas in a Discussion
D. How Active Participation Gives Rise to a Better Team

22. C 23. B 24. A 25. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了Oliver工作很热情，但是他的过度参与反而降低了团队
的工作效率，他参与得越多，他周围的人就越受冷落。于是Oliver通过倾听他人的声音，来指导同
事创造他们自己的想法，从而提高团队工作效率。
【22题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Oliver, the CTO of a high-tech company, loved to participate in all
conversations at the C-suite level, regardless of topic. He was often the first to raise his hand for a project,
appeared to have infinite capacity to get high-quality work done, and offered to assist his peers and direct
reports. Oliver seemed to be all-in; optimistic, energetic, supportive, and someone who constituted to
everyone.(Oliver是一家高科技公司的首席技术官，他喜欢参与所有的高层对话，无论是什么话题。
他常常是第一个为一个项目举手的人，似乎有无限的能力完成高质量的工作，并主动提出帮助他的
同事和直接下属。Oliver似乎全力以赴；乐观、精力充沛、乐于助人，是每个人的楷模)”可推知，
Oliver工作很热情。故选C。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“However, the more Oliver participated, the more others around him were
slighted. Instead of sparking creatively in others, his ideas outshone everyone else’s. He consumed time
speaking in meetings, exhausting the oxygen level in the room. Oliver felt pumped up by how many of his
ideas had been deployed but frustrated by others’ lack of sufficient effort. (然而，Oliver参与得越多，他
周围的人就越受冷落。他的想法没有激发别人的创造力，反而比别人的更有创意。他花时间在会议
上发言，耗尽了房间里的氧气水平。Oliver对自己的许多想法被采纳感到鼓舞，但对其他人的努力
不足感到沮丧)”可知，Oliver参与得越多，其他同事就越沮丧、不受重视、无法激发创造力，
Oliver过度参与的结果是同事们的工作效率降低了。故选B。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“To fix the issue, Oliver learned the value of asking two specific
questions before offering his own ideas: “What have you thought of?” and “What would be most helpful
for you at this point?” Surveying others to understand what's helpful illuminates better avenues for our
contribution: directly through our ideas, through coaching colleagues to create their own, or by building on

有帮助的，可以为我们的贡献指明更好的途径：直接通过我们的想法，通过指导同事创造他们自己
的想法，或者在其他人的想法的基础上继续发展)”可知，Oliver通过问其他同事问题，来倾听他人
的声音来解决这个问题。故选A。
【25题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“When we over-participate, we believe that we're being helpful. However,
“helpfulness” is defined by the recipient, not the giver. Instead of improving his relationships with
colleagues, Oliver robbed them of fulfillment by furnishing masses of ideas. They felt discouraged,

someone else has generated. (当我们过度参与时，我们认为自己是在帮助别人。然而，“帮助”是由
接受者定义的，而不是给予者。Oliver非但没有改善与同事的关系，反而提出了大量的想法，剥夺
了他们的成就感。他们感到沮丧、被打断、被排斥。为了解决这个问题，Oliver学会了在提出自己
的想法之前问两个具体问题的价值：“你有什么想法？”以及“此时什么对你最有帮助？”通过调
查他人来了解什么是有帮助的，可以为我们的贡献指明更好的途径：直接通过我们的想法，通过指
导同事创造他们自己的想法，或者在其他人的想法的基础上继续发展)”结合文章主要讲述了Oliver
工作很热情，但是他的过度参与（对团队的贡献）反而降低了团队的工作效率，他参与得越多，他
周围的人就越受冷落，不利于合作。于是Oliver通过倾听他人的声音，来指导同事创造他们自己的
想法，从而提高团队工作效率。可知，B选项“当贡献妨碍合作时”最符合文章标题。故选B。
B篇
The decision to go to college still makes sense for most, but a recent survey showed that only 16%
Americans think a four-year college degree course prepares students well for a high-paying job in the
modern economy. To some extent, technology seems to be complicating the picture.
A paper published by several Canadian economists questions optimistic assumptions about demand for
non-routine work and shows that since 2000 the share of employment accounted for by high-skilled jobs in
更多资料添加微信号：hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺：乐知课堂America has been falling. This analysis supports the view that technology has come as a blow to
employment. Skilled and unskilled workers alike are in trouble. Those with a better education are still more
likely to find work, but there is now a fair chance that it will be unenjoyable. Those who never made it to
college face being squeezed out of the workforce altogether. This is the argument of the techno-
pessimists(科技悲观者), who calculated that 47％ of existing jobs in America are very likely to be
influenced by automation.
There is another, less pessimistic possibility. James Bessen, an economist at Boston University, has
worked out the effects of automation on specific professions and finds that since 1980 employment has
been growing faster in occupations that use computers than in those that do not. Progressive automation can
actually increase demand by reducing costs. But even though technology may not destroy jobs on the
whole, it does force change upon many people.
In many occupations it has become essential to acquire new skills as established ones become out-of-
date. Burning Glass Technologies, a Boston-based startup that analyses labor markets by obtaining data
from online job advertisements, finds that the biggest demand is for new combinations of skills-what its
boss, Matt Sigelman, calls “hybrid jobs". The composition of new jobs is also changing rapidly.
A college degree at the start of a working career does not answer the need for the continuous
acquisition of new skills， especially as career spans(持续时间) are lengthening. Vocational training(职业
培训) is good at giving people job-specific skills, but those, too, will need to be updated over and over
again during a career lasting decades. Vocational training has a role, but training someone early to do one
thing all their lives is not the answer to lifelong learning.
Add all of this up, and it becomes clear that times have got tougher for workers of all kinds. A college
degree is still a necessity for many jobs, but employers often do not trust it enough to hire workers just on
the strength of that. In many occupations workers on company payrolls face the prospect that their existing
skills will become outdated.
26. What can we learn from the paper conducted by the Canadian economists?
A. Employment has been shaken by technology.
B. College degree is a necessity in career success.
C. Skilled workers are no longer required in most American industries.
D. Techno-pessimism paves the way for future technology development.
27. What does James Bessen believe according to the text?
A. Increased demand can bring about cost reduction.
更多资料添加微信号：hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺：乐知课堂B. Progressive automation is beneficial to companies.
C. Computer has always been an essential factor in employment.
D. Technology advancement has a positive impact on most people.
28. Which of the following may Burning Glass Technologies agree with?
A. The job market will have a bright future.
B. The composition of new jobs is shaped by technology.
C. Online job advertisements require a precise data analysis.
D. Acquisition of new skills is essential in current job market.
29. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Lifelong Learning: an Economic Priority
B. Technology Revolution: the Way to Success
C. College Degree: a Guarantee for Career Change
D. Vocational Training: a Blessing for Job Seekers
【答案】
26. A 27. B 28. D 29. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了在现代经济时代大学文凭仍然是找工作的先决条件，但是现
有技术可能会过时，要不断获取新技能，终身学习。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“This analysis supports the view that technology has come as a blow to
employment.(这一分析支持了一种观点，即技术已经对就业造成了打击。)”可知，我们可以从加拿
大经济学家的论文中了解到就业受到了科技的冲击。故选A项。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“James Bessen, an economist at Boston University, has worked out the
effects of automation on specific professions and finds that since 1980 employment has been growing faster
in occupations that use computers than in those that do not. Progressive automation can actually increase
demand by reducing costs.(波士顿大学的经济学家James Bessen计算出了自动化对特定职业的影响，
他发现，自l980年以来，使用电脑的职业的就业增长速度比不使用电脑的职业要快。渐进式自动化
实际上可以通过降低成本来增加需求。)”可知，James Bessen认为渐进式自动化对公司有益。故
选B项。
【28题详解】
更多资料添加微信号：hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺：乐知课堂推理判断题。根据第四段中的“In many occupations it has become essential to acquire new skills as
established ones become out-of-date. Burning Glass Technologies, a Boston-based startup that analyses
labor markets by obtaining data from online job advertisements, finds that the biggest demand is for new
combinations of skills—what its boss, Matt Sigelman, calls ‘hybrid jobs’.(在许多职业中，由于现有技能
已经过时，获得新技能已成为必要。波士顿的新兴公司Burning Glass Technologies通过获取网上招
聘广告的数据来分析劳动力市场，发现市场对新技能组合的需求最大——该公司老板Matt Sigelman
称之为‘混合工作’。)”可知，Burning Glass Technologies同意的观点是目前的就业市场上，获得
新技能是必不可少的。故选D项。
【29题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“A college degree is still a necessity for many jobs, but employers often do
not trust it enough to hire workers just on the strength of that. In many occupations workers on company
payrolls face the prospect that their existing skills will become outdated.（大学学历仍然是许多工作的必
要条件，但雇主往往不太相信这一点，不会仅仅凭学历就雇佣员工。在许多职业中，公司员工面临
着他们现有技能将会过时的前景）根据倒数第二段“Vocational training has a role, but training
someone early to do one thing all their lives is not the answer to lifelong learning.”（职业培训有一定的
作用，但早期培训一个人一辈子只做一件事并不是终身学习的答案。）。可知，文章介绍了在现代
经济时代大学文凭仍然是找工作的先决条件，但是现有技术可能会过时，要不断获取新技能，终身
学习。A选项“终身学习:经济优先”最适合作文章标题。故选A项。
