A、Mostofthemareprivate.

B、Theyaregrowingfastinvalue.

C、Theyareenjoyinghugesumsofinvestment.

D^Theycontributegreatlytoworkforcemarket.

标准答案：D

知识点解析：根据第2段第3句nJ知"socialmediacompanies”提供的就业市场只占

美国劳动力市场微小的一部分，所以D是错误表述，正确选项。

20、Itiscriticaltoknowsocialmedia'scontributiontonationaleconomichealthbecause

A、itmakesSiliconValleybecomemorecompetitive

theinvestorsfromiheWallStreetneedtoknowit

C、itisofcrucialimportanceforfutureeconomy

D、itguaranteesthebenefitsofsocialmediafounders

标准答案：C

知识点解析：虽然根据题干定位在第2段，但此题的答案实际在第3段的第I句，

由此句得出C选项。

21、Itisdifficulttoclarifysocialmedia'scontributiontonationaleconomichealth

because.

A、investmentreturnsareunclear

B、itisanewindustry

C、itisnotenvironmentfriendly

D、itisInternet-driven

标准答案：B

知识点解析：由题干里的“Itisdifficult”可把答案所在地定位在第四段的首句。该句

里的“Theproblem”和“difficult”对应。由此得出B选项。

22、Theexpression"thesamegap"(Para.5)refersto.

A^existenceofsocialmediaandregistrationofstatisticalradar

B、creationofnewcompaniesandmeasurementofproductivity

C、substantialeconomicgainsanddevelopmentofnewtechnology

D、economicbenefitsfromsocialmediaandlackofofficialstatistics

标准答案：D

知识点解析：此题的答案在第5段第1句的后半部分“butaren'tyetregisteringonthe

statisticalradaf\意思是说“到目前为止还没有数据显示''，故D正确。

23、FordandZapposarecitedasexamplestoillustratethat.

A、Twitteristhebestsocial-mediatoolfbrcompanies

BNittakestimeforcompaniestobecomekeenonsocialmedia

C、companiescangeteconomicbenefitbyusingsocial-mediatools

D、bigcompaniesareplayingleadingrolesinusingsocial-mediatools

标准答案：C

知识点解析：举例子是为了说明某一观点，所以此题依靠“FordandZappos”定，立在

第五段第3句，但答案要根据这个例子前的一句观点性的句子得出，即C答案。

24>Whoaremostunlikelytobenefitfromsocialmedia?

A、Peopleunemployed.

B、WallStreetinvestors.

C、Profitablecompanies.

D、Well-educatedpeople.

标准答案：A

知识点解析：根据第六段的陈述，作者认为得益于社交媒体的人主要是受教育程度

和收入高的人，而不是社会地位较低的人，由此可把B、C、D排除。

25、Whatistheauthor'sattitudetosocialmedia'scontributiontonationaleconomic

health?

A、Indifferent.

B、Doubtful.

C^Positive.

D、Neutral.

标准答案：R

知识点解析：从全文看，作者对社交媒体能对社会经济健康增长做出贡献没有明确

的肯定，相反的，不断地用疑问和转折表达对其怀疑。故选B。

A、answers

B、responses

C>decisions

D、changes

播。在它们寻找答案的研究中，有些科学家会去访问地方博物馆。"answer”是“答

案，，，科学家的研究是寻找答案。

27、[C2]

A、Therefore

B、Whatsoever

C^Instead

D、Since

B、clues

C、efforts

C、outcast

D^outfall
