choices. whatever we are wearing, our family and friends may accept us, but the workplace may not. a high school newspaper editor said it is unfair for companies to discourage visible tattoos (纹身）nose rings, or certain dress styles. it is true you cant judge a book by its cover, yet people do “cover” themselves in order to convey (传递) certain messages. what we wear, including tattoos and nose rings, is an expression of who we are. just as people convey messages about themselves with their appearances, so do companies. dress standards exist in the business world for a number of reasons, but the main concern is often about what customers accept. others may say how to dress is a matter of personal freedom, but for businesses it is more about whether to make or lose money. most employers do care about the personal appearances of their employees (雇员), because those people represent the companies to their customers. as a hiring manager i am paid to choose the people who would make the best impression on our customers. there are plenty of well-qualified candidates, so it is not wrong to reject someone who might disappoint my customers. even though i am open-minded, i cant expect all our customers are. there is nobody to blame but yourself if your set of choices does not match that of your preferred employer. no company should have to change to satisfy a candidate simply because he or she is unwilling to respect its standards, as long as its standards are legal.33.which of the following is the newspaper editors opinion according to paragraph 2?a. peoples appearances carry messages about themselves.b. customers choices influence dress standards in companies.c. candidates with tattoos or nose rings should be fairly treated.d. strange dress styles should not be encouraged in the

b. personal choices matterc. appearances matter d. hiring managers matter【答案】33.c34.b35.c【解析】试题分析：文章主要讲的是求职和职场着装问题。即将毕业的大学生面临求职压力，他们应该做好心理准备，尤其是在外在形象方面，让自己适应公司的规定。33.细节理解题。根据“it is unfair for companies to discourage visible tattoos (纹身）nose rings, or certain dress styles.yet people do “cover” themselves in order to convey (传递) certain messages.”可知，报纸的编辑认为公司对身上有纹身或发型比较另类的应聘者有偏见，这是不公平的，故选c。34.细节理解题。根据第一段“whatever we are wearing, our family and friends may accept us, but the workplace may not.”和第三段“most employers do care about the personal appearances of their employees (雇员), because those people represent the companies to their customers.”可知，公司的雇员代表了公司的形象，在职场上，随意的穿着是不允许的。对于公司来说，员工必须按照公司的规定进行着装，故选b。35.选择最佳标题。根据第一段“whatever we are wearing, our family and friends may accept us, but the workplace may not.”和第四段“choose the people who would make the best impression on our customers.”与第五段“there is nobody to blame but yourself if

world, cars play an important role in daily life and many societies would not exist without them. 36 but this is the prediction made by a team of transport researchers who are taken seriously, not only by government but also by car manufacturers(制造商). the human science and advanced technology institute at loughborough in the uk is part of an international research program. 37 that will mean much saving, no accidents and better use of roads. the super-intelligent car of the 21st century will drive itself, 38. instead, we will have a choice of cars and change them as frequently as we change our clothing. according to dr. david davis, who leads the research team, these predictions are based on the rising cost of the car culture, which had blocked up our cities, polluted our air, and caused more deaths than both world wars put together. davis says, cars will be fitted with some intelligent devices(装置) to regulate(调节) the distance between one car and another. 39 computers are much safer drivers than people, so cars in a road train will be able to drive much closer together than cars driven by people. by 2010, dr. david davis believes, car technology will give motorists a clear view of the road, whatever the weather conditions, by projecting an image（影像）of the road ahead on to the cars windscreen. 40 cars will be connected by an electronic bar to the car in front to form “road-trains”. “the front vehicle in such a train burns the normal amount of fuel.” says davis. “ but all the others in the train would burn about ten percent of the normal amount, and so produce about ten percent of the pollution.”a. the team there believes that by 2030 all cars will be computerized.b. they believe that cars will become more important in 20 years.c. and it will not be owned by one individual.d. and by 2030, cars will travel in line, linked to each other electronically.e. so the idea that in 20 years time, no one will own cars may be hard to believe.f. every driver will use less fuel in the car he owns.g. the car will automatically speed up, or slow down, to match the speed of the car in front.【答案】36.e37.a38.c39.g40.d【解析】39.根据上一句“some intelligent devices(装置) to regulate(调节) the distance between one car and another.”可知，智能装置将会自动调节车距，故选g。40.根据下一句“cars will be connected by an electronic bar to the car in front to form “road-trains”.”可知，汽车将排成一排行进，故选d。考点：科技类短文阅读第三部分 完形填空(共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分)阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项a、b、 c和d中, 选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 last week i was invited to a doctors meeting at the ruth hospital for
