the working conditions were poor. the tables where the workers sat were very high and uncomfortable. except for a half hour at lunchtime, there were no breaks in the day to relieve the boring work. there was no music. the walls of the workrooms were a dull gray color. i was amazed that the workers hadnt gone on strike. furthermore, the work flow was irregular. there was one especially absent-minded young man in the assembly（组装）line who sewed on buttons. after a while i recognized him as big jim, who used to sit behind me in math class in high school. he was very slow and all the shifts were held up at his position. workers beyond him in line on his shift had to wait with nothing to do; therefore, a great deal of time and efficiency were lost as big jim daydreamed while he worked. all week i wondered why he wasnt fired. after i made observations for a week, mr. hobbs asked me for an oral report of my findings.(1)the shirts from mr. hobbs factory can be described as _.aof low quality bof high qualitycfashionable dunfashionable(2)why did mr. hobbs ask the writer to the factory?athe factory was too big.bthe factory was not producing fast enough.cthe factory was not big enough.dthe writer was a college graduate.(3)which is not likely to happen in the factory?athe workers will have more rest in the day.bsomeone will examine the final product.cnew machines will be bought.dthe factory will be repainted.(4)big jim may get fired mainly because _.ahe was slow bhe wasted much timeche was absent-minded dthe work flow was irregular【解析】 本文为记叙文。作者大学毕业后被父亲的一个开衬衫厂的朋友雇用为短期顾问，结果作者对他的调查结果很是吃惊。欲知详情，请读文章。 (1)a 细节理解题。第三段说由于最后的产品无人检查，结果使有些装在箱子里要运送的衬衫缺纽扣、领子、甚至缺袖子，由此可知，mr. hobbs 的工厂生产的衬衫质量很差。(2)b 细节理解题。由第一段的最后一句可知，作者被请到工厂去的原因是工厂的效率很低，也就是生产不够快。(3)c 细节判断题。缺乏机器的事文中没有提到，所以买机器的事不可能发生。根据第四段的信息“除了半小时的午休时间，白天再没有放松的时间”可知a项的事情可能会发生；根据第三段的第二句“无人检查最后的产品”可知b项的事情可能会发生；根据第四段的倒数第二句可知d项的事情可能会发生。(4)c 推理判断题。虽然四个选项在第五段都被提到过，但a、b、d都是因为c引起的，所以c项是 big jim 可能会被解雇的主要原因。b(2011重庆卷，d)william butler yeats, a most famous irish writer, was born in dublin on june 13,1865. his childhood lacked the harmony (和睦) that was typical of a happy family. later, yeats shocked his family by saying that he remembered “little of childhood but its pain”. in fact, he inherited (继承) excellent taste in art from his familyboth his father and his brother were painters. but he finally settled on literature, particularly drama (戏剧) and poetry.yeats had strong faith in the coming of new artistic movements. he set himself the fresh task in founding an irish national theatre in the late 1890s.his early theatrical experiments，however，were not received favorably at the beginning. he didnt lose heart，and finally enjoyed success in his poetical drama.compared with his dramatic works, yeatss poems attract much admiring notice.the subject matter includes love，nature，history，time and aging. though yeats generally relied on very traditional forms, he brought modern sensibility to them. as his literary life progressed, his poetry grew finer and richer, which led him to worldwide recognition.he had not enjoyed a major public life since winning the nobel prize in 1923.yet，he continued writing almost to the end of his life. had yeats stopped writing at age 40，he would probably now be valued as a minor poet, for there is no other example in literary history of a poet who produces his greatest works between the ages of 50 and 75. after yeatss death in 1939, wh. auden wrote, among others, the following lines：earth，receive an honoured guest：william yeats is laid to rest.let the irish vessel (船) lieemptied of its poetry.本文介绍了爱尔兰著名作家威廉巴特
