21、through notes and poems even with intimates. The doctor who attended her illness was allowed to examine her in another room, seeing her walk by an opened door. People in her home village thought of her as a strange figure. When she died on May 15,1886, she was unknown to the rest of the world. Only

22、seven of her poems had appeared in print. But to think of Emily Dickinson only as a strange figure is a serious mistake. She lived simply and deliberately. She faced the essential facts of life. According to Henry James, a famous American novelist, she was one of those on whom nothing was lost. Only

23、 by thus living could Dickinson manage both to fulfill her obligations as a daughter, a sister, and a housekeeper and to write on the average one poem a day.

43、is public support 20 form of professional behavior. 1.A.onB.aboveC.atD.with答案:C考查介词搭配。空格前一分句中已经出现at.levels(在的水平或级别上)这一固定搭配，所以此处也应用at。2.A.whenB.howC.whyD.whether答案:A考查从句连接词。由句子结构可知空格后的部分是前面主句的状语从句，应填入的连接词在从句中也作状语，且表达的是时间，故选连接副词when。3.A.refusesB.deniesC.invitesD.accepts答案:C考查动词辨义与上下文理解。由后面的an open atm

44、osphere(一种开明的氛围)可知A、B两个含有否定义的动词都不能填入。accept指“接纳，接受”，它不用input(意见)作宾语。invite在此指“主动要求(别人提出意见等)”。4.A.hisB.herC.ourD.their答案:D考查指代一致。从句主语是all，指前文所说的his executives and supervisors，且由句意及动词 share(分享)可知这里并非指将CEO一个人的观点拿出来分享，故选与all对应的代词their。5.A.experiencingB.followingC.performingD.going答案:B考查动词辨义与搭配。experienc

45、e经历，体验follow跟随，按照；perform表现，完成；go走，去。能与practice(惯例，习惯做法，实践)搭配的动词是follow。6.A.asB.forC.as ifD.about答案:C考查固定搭配与上下文理解。由上下文文意可知这里应用feel as if这一固定搭配，指“觉得似乎”。其余三项中只有D与feel连用，但其后不能跟句子。7.A.whyB.whenC.howD.where答案:A考查上下文理解。why引出原因，when引出时间，how引出方式，where引出地点。由空格前的动词understand(理解)及后面一句的意思可知，只有理解了决定的原因才有可能支持，因此选

46、A。8.A.orderB.makeC.expectD.hope答案:C考查动词辨义与搭配。order命令；make使，制造expect期望，期待；hope希望。A、B两项明显不合文意；而hope后不跟不定式的复合结构，因此本题只能选C。9.A.HeB.ThisC.ThatD.h答案:D考查代词与常用表达。由句子结构不难看出这里是“It be for sb. to do sth”的常用表达，其中“为形式主语，真正主语是不定式。10.A.criticizeB.complainC.talkD.discuss答案:D考查动词搭配。criticize批评(是及物动词)；complain about抱怨，

47、指责；talk about谈论；discuss讨论(是及物动词)。由于空格前有否定含义的poor practice，因此选含否定义的B。11.A.expressB.speakC.easeD.create答案:A考查动词辨义。express表达；speak说(用语言作宾语)；ease改善，减轻，放松；create创造，引起。由句意可知这里指表达不同意见，因此选A。12.A.wheneverB.thoughC.ifD.unless答案:D考查上下文关系。由上下文不难看出，这里指美国人只有在某一决定涉及非法活动时公司的管理人员才会反对负责人，即空格后是一种让步情形，因此选表让步的连词unless。1

48、3.A.otherB.anotherC.the otherD.others答案:B考查限定词。other指“其余的”，后跟可数名词复数形式；another指“另一(个/种)”，其后跟可数名词单数，符合题意；the other特指两者中的“另一(个)”；others指“其余的”，其后不再跟名词。14.A.keepB.feelC.putD.remain答案:A考查动词固定搭配。keep(.)in touch with是固定搭配，指“获得某方面的最新信息或者知识”，与破折号后的补充说明相互对应。其余三个动词都不用在这一搭配中。15.A.andB.soC.butD.therefore答案:C考查上下文

49、关系。空格前they delegate(他们授权)与空格后they also follow up to.(他们也采取后续措施)是相互对立的两种管理方式，因此前后是转折关系，选but。16.A.ifB.thatC.whetherD.until答案:B考查搭配。make certain(确保)后跟宾语从句时，从句连接词用that。A、C两项引出的是不确定的结果，与句意逻辑矛盾。17.A.taskB.achievementC.successD.decision答案:D考查名词与上下文理解。task任务；achievement成就；success成功；decision决定。由上下文文意、常识及修饰词m

50、ajor(重大的)可知这里指作出重大决定，因此选D。18.A.withoutB.withC.byD.to答案:A考查介词与上下文理解。由常识可知，一般都是由企业负责人(president)来作出重大决定，因此这里要用否定介词without来构成双重否定表达肯定意思才合逻辑。注意knowledge在此指“知道”。19.A.seriouslyB.ultimatelyC.frequentlyD.actively答案:B考查副词辨义。seriously严肃地，严重地；ultimately最终，最后；frequently经常，频繁地；actively积极地，活跃地。句意指负贵人或者CEO最终对公司的成败

54、ct or service is linked to a broad, complicated system of prices in which everything seems to depend more or less upon everything else. If one were to ask a group of randomly selected individuals to define price, many would reply that price is an amount of money paid by the buyer to the seller of a

55、product or service, or, in other words, that price is the money value of a product or service .as agreed upon in market transaction. This definition is, of course, valid as far as it goes. For a complete understanding of a price in any particular trans- action, much more than the money involved must

56、 be known. Both the buyer and seller should be familiar with not only the money amount, but with the amount and quality of the product or service to be exchanged, the time and place at which the exchange will take place and payment will be made, the form of money to be used, the credit terms and discounts that apply to the transaction, guarantees on the product or service, delivery terms, return privilege, and other factors. In other words, both the buyer and
