[语篇解读] 招聘时,用人单位是看重大学的名气还是更注重专业技能呢?阅读本篇,感受一个农业大学毕业生的困惑吧!
1.A.lowly B.highly
C.little D.greatly
解析:联系全文我们可以知道,人们对农业大学,尤其是非名牌农业大学并不看重,空前的few决定了其他答案不能入选。think highly of意为“看重……。”
答案:B
2.A.wellknown B.beautiful
C.important D.skillful
解析:从第三段中的“Sorry,if you had graduated from Peking University,we would take

you on.”我们得知,招聘者看重的是大学的名气,而不是技能的重要性。从全文来看可排除其他选项。
答案:A
3.A.greater B. less
C.fewer D.more
解析:本空承接上句而来,“很少有人看得起农业大学,尤其是非名牌农业大学”,因此我们大学的毕业生找工作更加困难。A、C不能修饰形容词。B项与语意相反。
答案:D
4.A.accept B.find
C.change D.follow
解析:find a job意思是“找工作”。通读全文,我们可以知道,作者谈论的是大学生找工作难的问题,而不是接受工作或改变工作,因此A、C不合题意。
答案:B
5.A.study B.understand
C.change D.follow
解析:作者在此将农业大学与有着令人尊敬的专业的著名大学相比。从空后的respected subjects可得此答案提示。
答案:A
6.A.need B.wish
C.expect D.hope
解析:“预计我们大学的大多数毕业生都会被冷漠对待”,从下文一名大学毕业生的求职经历,作者作出如此预测,其他选项不合题意。
答案:C
7.A. teacher B.graduate
C.parent D.professor
解析:从后文“Which university did you graduate from?When the graduate...”我们得知,去求职的是一名毕业生。本文讨论的是非名牌、非热门专业大学生就业难的问题,因此A、C、D不合题意。
答案:B
8.A.held B.built
C.had D.offered
解析:“在广州举办的人才招聘会”。held在这里为过去分词作定语,意思是“举办”。B、D与人才招聘会不能连用。have也有“举办”的意思,但不能用于被动结构。
答案:A

9.A.give B.share
C.let D.hand
解析:联系上下文我们可以得知,这名毕业生要参加求职面试,因此他首先要递交(hand in)他的面试推荐表。give in意思是“屈服,投降”;share in意思是“分担”;let in意思是“让……进入”,都不符合题意。
答案:D
10.A.time B. turn
C.chance D.interview
解析:由前文的“He joined a queue...”我们知道,他是站在求职者的队伍中排队等候,因此作者说“当轮到他时”。
答案:B
11.A.address B.telephone
C.name D.number
解析:从后文“What?I’ve never heard of that university.”我们得知,这名毕业生告诉他的是他们学校的校名,而不是地址或电话。
答案:C
12.A.with B.away
C.up D.without
解析:他甚至没有看一眼推荐表。从空后的even可以得到此答案提示。A项与语意相反,B、C两项都是副词,后面不能接doing作宾语。
答案:D
13.A.books B.subjects
C.request D.knowledge
解析:按照常规,面试者应该注重学生的技能和学识。
答案:D
14.A.pity B.surprised
C.angry D.sorry
解析:听了这番话,生气是正常的。
答案:C
15.A.really B.certainly
C.finally D.proudly
解析:由空后问句可知,作者想知道面试者想得到的究竟是什么。
答案:A
16.A.or B.and

C.but D.so
解析:这里表示选择。
答案:A
17.A.much B.some
C.many D.most
解析:要得到本空的答案,我们首先要弄明白作者的态度:作者对面试者拒绝农业大学的毕业生感到极度气愤。他认为农业大学的毕业生并不比名牌大学的毕业生能力差。因此他认为,从总体上来说,只有少数的农业大学毕业生不如名牌大学的毕业生。C、D有较大干扰性。但根据作者的态度来看都不如B合适。
答案:B
18.A.explain B.mean
C.say D.translate
解析:弄明白上空的答案此题便迎刃而解。some students并不能代表all of us。say的主语一般是人。
答案:B
19.A.practical B.popular
C.lucky D.sure
解析:“...we are going to try to do as well as those from key universities.”是作者确信的内容。
答案:D
20.A.impress B.warn
C.prove D.disappoint
解析:“我们要用我们的技能给雇主留下深刻印象。”C项有一定干扰性,空后的the employers决定了C项不正确;impress sb.意思是“给某人留下深刻印象”。
答案:A
