1、Thereisevidencethattheuseofoffshoringwillincrease.

标准答案：C

知识点解析：陈述表明离岸外包行为将会增长。C段对应句表示还有40%的外包将

会离岸进行，也就意味着离岸外包还有增长空间。且C段最后一句Thatsuggests

theindustrystillhasalongwaytogrow.也表明了这一领域的增长空间“

2、Offshoringisnotanoptionincertainsectors.

标准答案：E

知识点解析：陈述提到离岸外包在某些领域并不适用，E段首句指出在像酒店和餐

饮这样的行业中，许多服务类工作无法迁移到国外，这就意味着这些行'也不宜进行

离岸外包。在词汇上，陈述中的sector对应了段落中的industry；并且offshoringis

notanoption对应\neverbemovedabroada

3、Thestructureofbusinessescanmakeoffshoringproblematic.

标准答案：D

知识点解析：陈述表示业务结构会给离岸外包带来麻烦，D段对应句的意思是限制

公司离岸外包能力的因素是现代商业信息系统结构不灵活。可见，段落对应句是题

目陈述句的具体化表达。其中，段落中的architecture对应陈述句中的structure,段

落中的limitingtheabilityof...,意味着“限制了...的能力“，使某事不能顺利进

展，可以对应陈述中problematic的含义。

4、Peopleconsultingoffshorestaffmayfindtheserviceunsatisfactory.

标准答案：B

知识点解析；陈述说明向离岸员工咨询的客户会对服务不满意，B对应句是对这一

含义的具体化表述。具体的意思是，当客户的问题比较复杂、需要有对当地的了解

才能解决时，客户对国外操作员的反响不会很好，因为他们总是重复着一些专门学

来的东西，缺乏对问题真正的理解。其中，段落中的query对应陈述中的

consulting,而donotrespondwell对应unsatisfactoryo

5、Offshoringisstillanuntriedanduntestedconceptformanycompanies.

标准答案：C

知识点解析：陈述提到很多公司还没有尝试过离岸外包，C段对应句具体说明有

60%的大公司还没有，或是刚刚开始研究离岸外包的潜力，因此两者属于统一表

达。TIPS：根据前几题可以总结出，通常题目陈述句都是总结和概括性的表达，

而段落中通常是针对问题具体化的表达。所以考生应具备对信息的总结和提炼能

力。

6、Technologymayenablecompaniestotargetaspectsoftheirbusinessforoffshoring.

标准答案：D

知识点解析：陈述表示技术可以使公司将业务中有需要的部分离岸外包，D段对应

句说明较新的软硬件使公司在未来可以将其业务中更细小的部分外包出去。再根据

段落中先前的叙述，可知在以前将公司业务中的某个部分单独外包存在问题，而技

术革新可以解决这个难题。其中，段落中的softwareandhardware对应了陈述中的

technology,slivers对应aspects。

7、Thebenefitsofoffshoringarenotconfinedtolowercosts.

标准答案：A-

知识点解析：陈述表明离岸外包的优势不限于降低成本，A段中有两句话都暗示了

这个含义，第一句提到，除了廉价劳动力之外，其他高岸外包的优势经常被忽略。

第三句直接给出了离岸外包的另外一种优势，也就是可以使公司经营活动全天候运

转。由此，句章之间可以建立起联系。

8、Strategicplanninginthelocationofservicesmayfacilitatemoresuccessful

offshoring.

标准答案：B

知识点解析：陈述表示，对服务地点战略性的规划可以使离岸外包更成功，B段对

应句是针对呼叫中心服务地点选择的具体建议，即把简单的咨询业务离岸外包，复

杂的部分留在国内。此后，又提到了rightsourcing这个概念，并且说明这种外包

理念将会得到广泛应用。

二、段落完型(本题共6题，每题7.0分，共6分。)

12、[P4]

标准答案：G

知识点解析：空格前的句子表示从咨询公司跳槽到企业公司是一种常见现象，而这

正是对目前一种职业轨迹的描述，对应了选项G的palh一词。同时，这种跳槽也

是将前一份工作（顾问）视作了后一份工作（企业管理层）的跳板，选项中的

steppingstone恰好表达了这一关系。同时，选项句提到的从顾问跳到管理岗位的行

为，属于一种职业野心，恰好对应后一句的ambition。因此，正确答案为选项G。

13、[P5]

标准答案：D

知识点解析：空格前面提到了咨询公司向招聘来的毕业生承诺会使其在两年内几乎

可以胜任任何工作，这无疑是一种超强的工作适应性，对应了选项D中的

adaptabilityo同时，选项中的attractiveoffers与后面句了,中的temptation表达的意

义相同，两者可以顺承。总结起来，此处的大意是，咨询公司承诺在两年内将毕业

生培养成能适应任何工祚的顾问：由于企业公司看重这种培养出来的适应性，所以

会给出很有吸引力的条件吸纳人才；企业的这种诱惑给咨询公司的用人带来了挑

战。因此，正确答案是选项D。

14、[P6]

标准答案：E

知识点解析：空格前提到了咨询公司的用人困境，选项E的nochoicebutto准确地

迎合了陷入困境别无选择的语境。另外，选项中的integratemanagersswitching

fromindustry（把来自企业的经理融入顾问团队）与空格后的consultantsrecruited

fromtheoutside属于同一表达。因此，正确答案为选项E。

三、常规阅读理解（本题共6题，每题7.0分，共6

分。）

15、TheUScompanyrunbyEberhardFaberwassetvpinorderto

A、tradeinpencilsfromavarietyofsources.

B、manufacturepencilsusingimportedleads.

C>competewithGermanpencilmanufacturers.

D、findcustomersforitsparentcompany'sproducts.

标准答案：D

知识点解析：细节题。要注意本题问的是在美国建立分公司的目的，对应文章中的

"aNewYorksubsidiarysetupsixyearslatertohandletheUSendofbusiness'*o根据此

处可以判断，设立分公司的目的是处理美国的业务，即开辟客源，所以选项DTE

确。至于选项B,对应的是美国分公司成立后的生产模式，并非目的。

16、WhatarewetoldaboutEberhardFaber*ssituationinthe1970s?

A^Salesinoneofitsmarketswerenotmatchingriseselsewhere.

B、Itsmainproductlinewasgeneratingadecliningshareofitsincome.

C、Attemptstodiversifyintonewproductswereprovingunsuccessful.

D、Itwaslosingmarketsharetoanumberofcompetitors.

标准答案：A'

知识点解析：细节题。艰据题目中的时间可以定位在文章第二段，根据“The

company'ssalesof...wereincreasingindevelopingcountries,butrecentUSsaleswere

essentiallystatic.“可知，美国市场没有发展中国家的市场增长迅速，因此选项A正

确。其余三项的情况在对应段落中均没有提及，因此排除。

17、WhatproblemdidEberhardFaberfacewhenitintroducedcedarwoodpencils?

A、Customersdemandedthercintroductionofyellowpencils.

B、Stockistsfeltitwastooriskytotrytosellthem.

C^Consumersobjectedtothematerialsthatwereused.

D、Marketingoftheproductsprovedtooexpensive.

标准答案：B

知识点解析：细节题。艰据题目中的关键词cedarwoodpencils定位到文章第三段

的最后两句话，可知EberhardFaber公司对这种新产品寄予很高期望，然而“the

stationersavoidedthenewproduct,preferringtostickwithaprovenseller”,即文具商

们不愿尝试销售新产品。因此选项B为正确答案。而其他三个选项所表述的信

息，文中均未提及。

18、Accordingtothefourthparagraph,whatstrategicmistakedidEberhardFabermake?

A^Itmovedintoamarketwithwhichitwasunfamiliar.

B、Itallowedthequalityofitsproductstofall.

C、Itneglectedvolumesalesinfavourofprofitmargins.

D、Itconcentratedonsellingproductstohesoldunderown-brandlabels.

标准答案：C、

知识点解析：推断题。解决本题需要纵览第四段，可采用排除法。首先根据第四段

第一句话可知，公司在美术用品领域并非没有经验，所以排除选项A。根据本段最

后的“theconsistentlygoodqualityandservice”可知，公司产品的质量一直很好，所

以排除选项B。根据本段最后一句"Inthismarket,whichincludedsalesto

corporationsunderown-brandlabelsaswellastheEberhardFabername”可知，销售形

式不止一种，所以排除选项D。而选项C的正确性需要推断得出，根据“thefirm

founditselfgainingareputationfornon-competitivepricing…”可矢口，公司的价格不占

优势，这就意味着公司无法实现批量销售，由此推断出选项C为正确答案。

19、Accordingtothefifthparagraph,inthe1980sEberhardFaberwasfailingto

A、achievefinancialsecurity.

B、retainitsseniormanagers.

C、improveitspublicimage.

D、reviseitsproductrange.

标准答案：A

知识点解析：推断题。本题同样可以采取排除法作答。首先，选项B在对应段中

没有提及。第五段第二句"Theyalsodevelopednewproducts...”表明公司对产品线进

行/调整，所以排除选项D。第四句"Suchmovesbenefitedthecompany飞image...*'

说明公司的形象得到了提升，所以排除选项C。然而，第四句的后半句"butdespite

itseffortsEberhardFaberwasstillstruggling…”说明了公司的经营仍然在困境之中,

再根据后文可知，公司最终被收购。由此说明公司的财务状况在这段时期一直没能

扭转，所以选项A为正确答案。

20、Accordingtothelastparagraph,Faber-CastellUSAisimplementingastrategyof

A^revivingtraditionalformsofadvertising.

B、targetingaspecifictypeofcustomer.

C、usingtechnologyinproductdevelopment.

D^relaunchingpreviouslydiscontinuedproducts.

标准答案：B

知识点解析：细节题。取据最后一段的第一句话“ThenewFaber-CastellUSA

concentratedonhighendmarkets..."可知，公司关注于高端市场，也就是定位于特殊

的客户群体，所以选项B为正确答案。至于本题的其他三个选项，均是借助段落

中原词杜撰出的干扰选预。因此，考生一定时刻记住“警惕原词”的原则。

四、完形填空(单选)(本题共70题，每题7.0分，共

I

21、[Cl]

A、contract

deal

C、pledge

D、bid

标准答案：D

知识点解析：选项Acontract为“契约,合同”；选项Bdeal为“交易,买卖”;选项

Cpledge为“保证，抵押”；选项Dbid为“出价”。根据文意，此处应该填入表示价

格之意的单词，因此选项D为正确答案。

22、[C2]

A^capital

B、assets

C、investments

D、cash

标准答案：A

知识点解析：选项Acapilal为“资本，资金”；选项Bassel为“资产，财产”；选项

Cinvestment为“投资,投入”;选项Dcash为“现金，现款”。能够与working（经

营性的）搭配的有capital和asset,通常capital指生产者投入生产经营、产生效益

的资金，俗称本钱；而asset指企业所拥有和控制的经济资源，包括收入、债券和

其他。这里根据语境应该选择含有“本钱”之意的capital,因此选项A为正确答案。

23、[C3]

A、fund

pay

C、acquire

D、buy

标准答案：A

知识点解析：选项Afund做及物动词时为“投资”；选项Bpay为“支付，缴纳“；选

项Cacquire为“收购,取得”；选项Dbuy为“购买”。空格后为抽象名词the

purchase,而B、C、D三个选项的单词输需要接具体名词，且fund可以指“为...

投入资金”，因此选项A为正确答案。

24、[C4]

A、behaviour

B>functions

C^performance

D、transactions

标准答案：C

知识点解析：根据句意此处应填入表示“业绩”之意的词，选项Cperfomiance正好

表达此意，因此为正确答案。选项Abehavior为”行为,表现”;选项Bfunction为

“作用,功能”；选项Diransaclion为“交易”。

25、[C5]

A、established

B、gained

C、brought

D、generated

标准答案：D

知识点解析：本题为固定搭配题型。词组generateprofit表示“创造利润”；选项B

gain也可与profit搭配，表示“获得利益”；选项Cbring一般构成的搭配为bring

profittosb./sth.,表示笼统概念”为…带来利润”，且profit后不接of等词表示具体

收益。在本句中表达的意思应为"Wavertree为DataInternational创造的利润”，所以

选项D为正确答案。选项Aestablish不可与profit形成搭配。

26、[C6]

A、promote

B、benefit

C、assist

D^favour

标准答案：B

知识点解析：固定搭配题。短语benefit(Yom表示“受益于……”，本句中可表示“从

显著增长的销售中获益”。选项Apromote为“促进，提升”；选项Cassist为“帮

助”；选项Dfavour为及物动词，表示“赞成，有助于

27、[C7]

A、enlarge

B、swell

C、boost

D、advance

标准答案：C

知识点解析：选项Aenlarge为“扩大，扩展”；选项Bswell为“膨胀，凸起”；选项

Cboost为“提高，使上涨”；选项Dadvance为“推进，使提前”。此处应该表示“提

高价格”之意，因此选项C为正确答案。

28、[C8]

A^devoted

B、guaranteed

C、associated

D、committed

标准答案：D

知识点解析：本题中的选项Dcommitted为“承担义务的”，可构成短语remain

committedto...（保持致力于...），这里表示“继续对Wavertree负责”。选项A

devoted为“献身的，忠诚的”,构成bedevotedto（献身于...,致力于...）短语

时，主语通常为人；选项Bguaranteed为“有保证的”；选项Cassociated为“关块

的”。因此，选项D为正确答案。

29、[C9]

A、possess

13、retain

C、carry

D、proceed

标准答案：B

知识点解析：选项Apossess为“拥有,控制”；选项Bretain为“保留,保有”;选项

Ccarry为“携带，持有”；选项Dproceed为“发生，进行”。根据文意，此处应填入

表示“保留”之意的动词，因此选项B为正确答案。

30、[C10]

A、unanimous

total

C、unified

D^complete

标准答案：A

知识点解析：根据文意，此处应填入形容词表示“一致意见”。选项Aunanimous为

“意见一致的"；选项Blotal为“全部的"；选项Cunified为“统一的，一致标准

的“；选项Dcomplete为“完整的，彻底的”。因此选项A为正确答案。

五、完形填空（填空）（本题共70题，每题7.0分，共
