6、nal Institute of Industrial Psychologys Seven-Point Plan and the Five- Fold Grading System. The interviewers score candidates for how well 10 they fit the job specification. 1.答案:technologicaltechnical解析 形近词误用。technological表“科技的，工程的”，而technical则可指“(某工作或专业需要的)技能的”，此处指“工作必需的技能”，故应使用technical。2.答案:ato解

7、析 介词缺失。句中的a new work environment和new ways of working并列充当adapt to的宾语，介词to在此不能省略。3.答案:affectaffecting或affectthat/which解析 动词形式错误或从句引导词缺失。这句话已经有了谓语动词are，所以动词affect应使用现在分词affecting作后置定语，修饰前面的other personal skills；还可以在affect前面加上引导词that或者which，以定语从句的形式修饰other personal skills。4.答案:orand解析 连词误用。全方位的交际能力应该包括o

8、ral和written两部分，而不是其中之一，所以应使用连词and。5.答案:recognizeit解析 代词缺失。宾语从句中的谓语动词recognize为及物动词，其后应该接宾语，it在此处指代前文中的what they are looking for。6.答案:andand解析 固定搭配错误。one another为固定搭配，意思是“互相，彼此”。7.答案:correctright解析 近义词误用。当right和correct都表示“对的，正确的，准确的”时，可以互换，但此处right要表达的意思应该是“适宜的，合适的”，所以不可以与correct换用。8.答案:nonot解析 副词误用。

9、此处需要副词修饰effective，no一般修饰名词，而not则可修饰形容词。9.答案:listinglisted解析 非谓语动词误用。the qualities与list是逻辑上的动宾关系，所以这里应使用list的过去分词形式，表示被动。同时还可以理解为which/that are listed这样一个定语从句的省略形式。10.答案:foragainst解析 介词误用。score.against.是固定搭配，意思是“根据打分(评判)”。问题:11.

10、m to both smokers and non-smokers.答案:倒装句错误，应在smoking前加上is。解析 本句缺少系动词is，当否定词置于句首以表示强调时，句子要使用倒装结构。这些否定词包括no，little，hardly，seldom，never，not only，at no time，in no way，not until等。English serves as a functional alternative language in severalareas of public activity for the many nations of the world which

14、 the world, itprovides a means of communicating with people of similar trainingand interests which would otherwise not be able to comprehend 21them.12.答案:itas解析 use作动词用时，其后不能接双宾语。根据句意，此处要表达的意思是“世界上许多国家把英语当作第二国际语言使用”，“把当作使用”应该用短语use.as.，故需要在it后加介词as。13.答案:muchlarge/huge解析 much不宜用来修饰number，要说明人的“数量”之多

15、，通常选用形容词large或者huge，而要表示“数量”之少，则通常用small表示。类似此类用法的还有population“人口”，表示“人口众多”时不能用many修饰，应该用large。14.答案:adaptedadopted解析 adapt意为“适应”，用在此处不合适。根据句意，此处想表达的意思是“英语已经被采纳为航空和航空管理的语言”。故应将adapted改为其形近词adopted，表示“采用，采纳”。15.答案:English-spokenEnglish-speaking解析 尽管English跟speak为被动关系，但根据英语的表达习惯，“英语语言国家”应用English-spea

16、king nation表达，故应将English-spoken改为English-speaking。16.答案:boundsboundaries解析 此处their own后接名词，bound作名词通常为复数形式，表示“限制范围，界限”，多指抽象的事物；boundary表示“边界，分界线”，常指具体存在的事物间的界限例如地理位置上的分界。前文的geographically widespread use就已经表明英语使用的地域性较广，此处说英语国家的政治和经济影响范围已经远远超出了“地域”界限，故用boundaries更合适。17.答案:ButAnd解析 本篇文章主要讲的是英语作为一种国际语言，

17、被广泛应用于许多领域。此处a final example进一步举例说明“英语为世界上大多数出版物所使用”，与上文在语意上并没有转折的意味，故应将But改为And。18.答案:mostmost解析 the majority“大部分”本身就包含了most的含义，most用在此处语意重复，故须将most删除。19.答案:inon解析 rely on为固定搭配，意为“依赖”，此处表示的是“教育很依赖于对英文的理解”，故应将in改为on。20.答案:Englishdoes解析 in no sense表示“决不”，当此类表示否定含义的词组置于句首时，后面的句子要倒装。此句的时态为一般现在时且主语Engli

18、sh为单数，故需补充助动词does，并放在English之前。21.答案:whichwho/that解析 根据句意，定语从句意为“否则就不能理解它们”，此处of similar training and interests是作定语修饰people的，即定语从句的先行词是people而非training and interests，而当先行词为人且引导词作主语时，应用who或that。 The latest study finds some temperament traits are more like to land 22 babies in front of the television.

19、 There is growing evidence watching hours and hours of TV can 23 prompt kids to eat unhealthy foods and gain less weight.

23、事”。23.答案:watchingthat考点 本题考查同位语从句的用法。解析 先行词evidence的同位语从句应该由that引导，不能省略关系代词。24.答案:lessmore考点 本题考查篇章理解。解析 根据下文经常观看电视的孩子因为会吃很多不健康食品，导致肥胖病(obesity)的发生，因此用more更符合上下文的意思。25.答案:wouldshould考点 本题考查虚拟语气的用法。解析 that引导的从句作为动词recommend(表示“建议，推荐”)的宾语从句，谓语动词应该用虚拟语气，即should do something，或者省略助动词should。26.答案:relatedl

24、yrelatively考点 本题考查副词辨析。解析 relatedly表示“有关地，相关地”；relatively表示“相对地”。句中指父母们渴望用“相对”简单、快速的方法管教孩子，所以用后者更贴切。27.答案:HopeHoping考点 本题考查非谓语动词的用法。解析 hope引导的是目的状语，不能用它的原型，而且主语scientists是施动者，所以用hope的-ing分词。28.答案:attendtend考点 本题考查动词词组辨析。解析 attend to somebody表示“照顾某人”；tend to do something表示“倾向做某事”，后面跟的是动词promote，因此用后者

25、。29.答案:temperaturetemperament考点 本题考查名词辨析。解析 temperature表示“体温”，temperament表示“脾性”，句中是指让家长报告孩子的脾气、表现，所以用后者更贴切。30.答案:well as考点 本题考查词组辨析。解析 as well和as well as都可以表示“也，一样”。但是，前者是副词词组，用作状语，只能放在句末；后者是介词词组，必须和名词或者名词词组搭配使用。31.答案:feedfed考点 本题考查时态的用法。解析 最后一段都是介绍以前发生过的事情，应该用动词的一般过去式。PART WRITING问题:1. 题目要求：Singles
