Hunting for a job late last year, lawyer Gant Redmon stumbled across CareerBuilder, a job database on the Internet. He searched it with no

success but was attracted by the site’s “personal search agent”.

It’s an interactive feature that lets visitors key in job criteria

such as location, title, and salary, then E-mails them when a

matching position is posted in the database. Redmon chose the

keywords legal, intellectual property, and Washington, D.C. Three

weeks later, he got his first notification of an opening. “I struck

gold,’ says Redmon, who E-mailed his resume to the employer and won

a position as in-house counsel for a company。

With thousands of career-related sites on the Internet, finding

promising openings can be time-consuming and inefficient. Search

agents reduce the need for repeated visits to the databases. But

although a search agent worked for Redmon, career experts see

drawbacks. Narrowing your criteria, for example, may work against you:

“Every time you answer a question you eliminate a possibility。”

says one expert。

For any job search, you should start with a narrow concept—what

you think you want to do—then broaden it. “None of these programs

do that,” says another expert. “There’s no career counseling

implicit in all of this。” Instead, the best strategy is to use the

agent as a kind of tip service to keep abreast of jobs in a

particular database; when you get E-mail, consider it a reminder to

check the database again. “I would not rely on agents for finding

everything that is added to a database that might interest me,” says

the author of a job-searching guide。

Some sites design their agents to tempt job hunters to return. When CareerSite’s agent sends out messages to those who have signed up

for its service, for example, it includes only three potential jobs—

those it considers the best matches. There may be more matches in the

database; job hunters will have to visit the site again to find

them—and they do. “On the day after we send our messages, we see a

sharp increase in our traffic,” says Seth Peets, vice president of

marketing for CareerSite。

Even those who aren’t hunting for jobs may find search agents

worthwhile. Some use them to keep a close watch on the demand for

their line of work or gather information on compensation to arm

themselves when negotiating for a raise. Although happily employed, Redmon maintains his agent at CareerBuilder. “You always keep your

eyes open,” he says. Working with a personal search agent means

having another set of eyes looking out for you。

21. How did Redmon find his job?

[A] By searching openings in a job database.

[B] By posting a matching position in a database

[C] By using a special service of a database

[D] By E-mailing his resume to a database。

22. Which of the following can be a disadvantage of search agents?

[A] Lack of counseling。

[B] Limited number of visits。

[C] Lower efficiency。

[D] Fewer successful matches。

23. The expression “tip service” (Line 3, Paragraph 3) most

probably means

[A] advisory. [B] compensation. [C] interaction. [D] reminder。

24. Why does CareerSite’s agent offer each job hunter only three

job options?

[A] To focus on better job matches.

[B] To attract more returning visits。

[C] To reserve space for more messages。

[D] To increase the rate of success。

25. Which of the following is true according to the text?

[A] Personal search agents are indispensable to job-hunters。

[B] Some sites keep E-mailing job seekers to trace their demands。 [C] Personal search agents are also helpful to those already

employed。

[D] Some agents stop sending information to people once they are

employed。

名师解析

21. How did Redmon find his job? Redmon是如何找到工作的

[A] By searching openings in a job database.

通过搜索工作数据库中的空缺职位。

[B] By posting a matching position in a database。

通过在数据库里面张贴匹配职位。

[C] By using a special service of a database.

通过使用某数据库的一项特别服务。

[D] By E-mailing his resume to a database。

通过将他的简历以电子邮件的方式寄给某数据库。

【答案】 C

【考点】事实细节题。

【分析】题干的关键信息就是“Redmon”我们在第一段里面可以看见

“Redmon”的内容。要答对本题考生必须仔细查看究竟“Redmon”是怎样利

用该数据库来找到工作的。在第一段里面作者提到他使用了“个人搜索代

理”输入几个关键词几个星期以后得到了职位空缺的通知然后他又把他

的履历寄给雇主从而获得这份工作。整个过程就是这样的。[A]只反映了他整

个求职过程的一部分。[B]故意颠倒了“post”(张贴)这个动作的主语张贴的

人要么是求职网要么是寻人单位却不是“Redmon”。选项[D]同样颠倒了

主语因为是数据库发电子邮件给“Redmon”而不是反过来。选项[C]“通过使

用某数据库的特别服务”虽然泛了一点却是正确的因为“个人搜索代理”

正是这样的一个特殊服务。

22. Which of the following can be a disadvantage of search agents?

下列哪项可能是搜索代理的缺点

[A] Lack of counseling. 缺少咨询。 [B] Limited number of visits. 限制访问次数。

[C] Lower efficiency. 效率更低下。

[D] Fewer successful matches. 匹配成功率更低。

【答案】 A

【考点】事实细节题。

【分析】第二段中的“Search agents reduce the need for repeated

visits to the databases. But although a search agent worked for

Redmon, career experts see drawbacks。”表明“搜索代理减少了重复访问

数据库的需要但是职业专家也看到了缺点”。随后文章提到“对求职

者而言每缩小一次搜索条件每回答一个这样的问题就缩小了一次求得职

业的可能性”。同时在第三段作者还提到一个缺点即“There’s no

career counseling implicit in all of this。”这里的“this”指的就是

“搜索代理”也就是说“搜索代理没有提供职业咨询”。因此选项[A]是符

合的。[B]文章中没有提到同时对网络公司而言也是不可能的常识告诉我

们点击率是网站生存的基础。[C]是搜索代理可以避免的事情。[D]这一点文

章中也没有提到。

23. The expression “tip service” (Line 3, Paragraph 3) most

probably means

短语“tip service”(第三段第三行)最可能的含义是

[A] advisory. 忠告

[B] compensation. 补偿报酬

[C] interaction. 互动

[D] reminder. 提示

【答案】 D

【考点】词义题。

【分析】本题属于典型的词义题。此类题目的主要目的就是考查考生通过上

下文来判断词义的能力。看原文“Instead, the best strategy is to use

the agent as a kind of tip service to keep abreast of jobs in a

particular database; when you get E-mail, consider it a reminder to

check the database again。”即“相反最好的策略就是将这种搜索代理作

为一种‘tip service’来用使自己能一直保持与某个特定数据库里面的工作

的联系。当你收到电子邮件的时候把它当成一个提示该再次查查数据库了。”至此考生应该能够理解“tip service”其实就是指的一种“提示服

务”也就是“reminder”。这道题目属于典型的可以从后文中找到解释的词

义题。

24. Why does CareerSite’s agent offer each job hunter only three

job options?

为什么CarrerSite的搜索代理只为每一位求职者提供三项工作选择

[A] To focus on better job matches. 为了侧重于更好的相匹配的工作。

[B] To attract more returning visits. 为了吸引更多的人回访。

[C] To reserve space for more messages. 为了给更多的讯息留下空间。

[D] To increase the rate of success. 为了提高成功的几率。

【答案】 B

【考点】事实细节题。

【分析】第四段第一句“Some sites design their agents to tempt job

hunters to return。”是本段的主题句也可以说是本段的论点后面的例子

只是在证明这一点。阅读原文“When CareerSite’s agent sends out messages to those who have signed up for its service, for example, it includes only three potential jobs—those it considers the best matches. There may be more matches in the database; job hunters will have to visit the site again to find them”我们就会发现“tempt”(诱惑、吸引)这个单词以及后面的“job hunters will have to visit the site again”。都说明这样做的目的就是为了吸引更多的人来访问网站所

以正确答案是选项[B]。

25. Which of the following is true according to the text?

根据本文下面哪一项是正确的

[A] Personal search agents are indispensable to job-hunters。

个人搜索代理对于求职者来说是不可缺少的。

[B] Some sites keep E-mailing job seekers to trace their demands。

一些网站不断给求职者发电子邮件以追踪它们的需求。

[C] Personal search agents are also helpful to those already employed。个人搜索代理对于那些已经有工作的人来说也有用处。

[D] Some agents stop sending information to people once they are employed。

一些代理在人们找到工作后就停止给他们发送信息了。

【答案】 C

【考点】事实细节题。

【分析】第五段第一句“Even those who aren’t hunting for jobs may find search agents worthwhile。”的意思其实就和选项[C]“个人搜索代理

对于那些已经有工作的人来说也有用处”一个意思。选项[A]这种说法过于绝

对文中已经说过“个人搜索代理有其自己的缺点最好只是把它当成一种提

示服务”这说明它不是不可或缺的。选项[B]说法刚好相反应该是求职者利用搜索代理密切关注行业需求情况。选项[D]这种说法是和原文相反的在找到工作后人们仍然可以一直使用搜索代理。

难句解析

1. It’s an interactive feature that lets visitors key in job criteria such as location, title, and salary, then E-mails them when a matching position is posted in the database。

【结构分析】本句属于强调句句子主干“It is(an interactive feature)that lets visitors key in…”强调主语“an interactive feature”。“that”后面连接两个并列的谓语动词结构“let sb. do

sth。”和“E-mails ”这里“email”这个名词被活用为动词。“such as…”结构举例说明“job criteria”。“when”引导的时间状语从句修饰整

个句子。

2. Instead, the best strategy is to use the agent as a kind of tip service to keep abreast of jobs in a particular database; when you get E-mail, consider it a reminder to check the database again。

【结构分析】该句子分号前后是两个并列分句后一分句对前一分句作进一步解释而且后一分句也是猜测“tip service”的关键。前一分句的主干是“the best strategy is to use the agent”“as…”介词短语结构意为“当做……”。不定式结构“to keep…”表示目的。后一分句里面“when”

引导一个时间状语从句“consider”后面接宾语“it”和宾语补足语“a reminder”“to check the database again”是后置定语修饰

“reminder”。 3. When CareerSite's agent sends out messages to those who have signed up for its service, for example, it includes only three

potential jobs—those it considers the best matches。

【结构分析】本句中“when”引导时间状语从句。整个复合句的主句是“it

includes only three potential jobs”破折号后是“potential jobs”的

同位语“those”后面接定语从句该定语从句中的“it”回指

“CareerSite's agent”。“for example”为插入语。

4. Some use them to keep a close watch on the demand for their line

of work or gather information on compensation to arm themselves when

negotiating for a raise。

【结构分析】该句子的主干是“Some use them”两个并列的不定式结构

“to keep…or(to)gather…”在句子中做目的状语。在第二个目的状语中又含

有一个表示目的的不定式短语“to arm…”“when”加上现在分词形式作状

语来修饰“arm”(vt. 武装)。

去年年末甘特·雷德曼律师在找工作时偶然在网上发现职业资料库“职业

建筑师”。他也在上面找了一下可是没有成功但却被这个网址上的“个人搜

索代理”所吸引。这项功能有个互动的特点允许访问者自定求职要求比如

工作地点、职位和薪水等当资料库里有与个人要求相匹配的工作岗位被公布

出来时它就会通过电子邮件通知求职者。雷德曼选择关键词“法律”、“知

识产权”和“华盛顿特区”。过了三个星期雷德曼接到第一份有职位空缺的

通知。他说“我挖到金子啦”他把个人简历用电子邮件寄给了雇主接着

就得到了该公司法律顾问的职务。

因特网上与求职相关的网址数以千计寻找可能的职业空缺费时、效率又

低。有了搜索代理就没那么多必要反复访问资料库了。不过虽然搜索代理

成功地为雷德曼找到了工作就业专家却还是认为搜索代理仍有缺陷比如缩

小你的要求条件就有可能对你不利。一位专家说“每回答一次问题你就丧

失一次机会。”

寻找任何职业你都要从一个狭窄的概念开始即你想干什么工作然后再

加以扩展。“任何这些程序中都没有那种扩展功能”另一位专家说“所

有这一切都不包含职业咨询。”相反最佳的策略是把代理当作一种提示服务

来及时跟踪某一资料库里的工作岗位信息。当你收到电子邮件时你就把它当

作一种提醒再去查一查资料库。一位职业搜索指南的编者说“我不会依赖代

理去逐一寻找在数据库增加的每一项内容里可能令我感兴趣的东西。”

一些网站设计自己的代理诱惑寻职者成为回头客。比如当求职网代理向注

册服务的用户发送信息时它只提供三个它认为最可能匹配的岗位。可能在

资料库里还有更多的匹配岗位求职者于是只好再次访问这个网址来寻找——求职者的确会这么做。求职网销售副总裁塞思·皮茨说“我们发送这些信息

的当天访问量就急剧增长。”

即使非求职的人士也会发现搜索代理值得一览。有些人利用搜索代理密切地

观察对于本行业的需求或搜集有关加薪的信息以备增薪谈判时胸有成竹。雷

德曼虽然已愉快就职但他与“职业建筑师”网代理的联系依旧保持着。他

说“你要永远睁大眼睛。”使用个人搜索代理等于多一双眼睛替你在观察。

2015考研英语阅读理解精读P18—医学

2015考研英语阅读理解精读P18—医学 Passage 18(Doctor-assisted Suicide:Is It Ever an Option?) Should doctor-assisted suicide ever be a legal option? It involves the extreme measure of taking the life of a terminally ill patient when the patient is in extreme pain and the chances for recovery appear to be none.Those who argue against assisted suicide do so by considering the roles of the patient,the doctor,and nature in these situations. Should the patient take an active role in assisted suicide? When a patient is terminally ill and in great pain,those who oppose assisted suicide say that it should not be up to that patient to decide what his or her fate will be.There are greater powers at work that determine when a person dies,for example,nature.Neither science nor personal preference should take precedence over these larger forces. What role should the doctor have? Doctors,when taking the Hippocratic oath,swear to preserve life at all costs,and it is their ethical and legal duty to follow both the spirit and the letter of this oath.It is their responsibilities to heal the sick,and in the cases when healing is not possible,then the doctor is obliged to make the dying person comfortable.Doctors are trained never to hasten death.Those who oppose assisted suicide believe that doctors who do help terminally ill patients die are committing a crime,and they should be dealt with accordingly.Doctors are also,by virtue of their humanness,capable of making mistakes.Doctors could quite possibly say,for instance,that a cancer patient was terminal,and then the illness could later turn out not to be so serious.There is always an element of doubt concerning the future outcome of human affairs. The third perspective to consider when thinking about assisted suicide is the role of nature.Life is precious.Many people believe that it is not up to human beings to decide when to end their own or another’s life.Only nature determines when it is the right time for a person to die.To assist someone in suicide is not only to break criminal laws,but to break divine 1aws as well. These general concerns of those who oppose assisted suicide are valid in certain contexts of the assisted suicide question.For instance,patients cannot always be certain of their medical conditions.Pain clouds judgment,and so the patient should not be the sole arbiter of her or his own destiny.Patients do not usually choose the course of their medical treatment,so they shouldn’t be held completely responsible for decisions related to it.Doctors are also fallible,and it is understandable that they would not want to make the final decision about when death should occur.Since doctors are trained to prolong life,they usually do not elect to take it by prescribing assisted suicide. I believe that blindly opposing assisted suicide does no one a service.If someone is dying of

Dream events are imaginary, but they are related to real experiences and needs in the dreamer's life. They seem real while they are taking place. Some dreams are pleasant, others are annoying, and still others are frightening. Everyone dreams, but some persons never recall dreaming.

考研英语阅读理解精读100篇之经济类 unit1 unit1 Some of the concerns surrounding Turkey’s application to join the European Union, to be voted on by the EU’s Council of Ministers on December 17th, are economic-in particular, the country’s relative poverty. Its GDP per head is less than a third of the average for the 15 pre-2004 members of the EU. But it is not far off that of one of the ten new members which joined on May 1st 2004 (Latvia), and it is much the same as those of two countries, Bulgaria and Romania, which this week concluded accession talks with the EU that could make them full members on January 1st 2007. Furthermore, the country’s recent economic progress has been, according to Donald Johnston, the secretary-general of the OECD, "stunning". GDP in the second quarter of the year was 13.4% higher than a year earlier, a rate of growth that no EU country comes close to matching. Turkey’s inflation rate has just fallen into single figures for the first time since 1972, and this week the country reached agreement with the IMF on a new three-year, $10 billion economic programme that will, according to the IMF’s managing director, Rodrigo Rato, "help Turkey... reduce inflation toward European levels, and enhance the economy’s resilience". Resilienc e has not historically been the country’s economic strong point. As recently as 2001, GDP fell by over 7%. It fell by more than 5% in 1994, and by

TEXT 2 He emerged, all of a sudden, in 1957: the most explosive new poetic talent of the English post-war era. Poetry specialised, at that moment, in the wry chronicling of the everyday. The poetry of Yorkshire-born Ted Hughes, first published in a book called “The Hawk in the Rain” when he was 27, was unlike anything written by his immediate predecessors. Driven by an almost Jacobean rhetoric, it had a visionary fervour. Its most eye-catching characteristic was Hughes's ability to get beneath the skins of animals: foxes, otters, pigs. These animals were the real thing all right, but they were also armorial devices—symbols of the countryside and lifeblood of the earth in which they were rooted. It gave his work a raw, primal stink. It was not only England that thought so either. Hughes's book was also published in America, where it won the Galbraith prize, a major literary award. But then, in 1963, Sylvia Plath, a young American poet whom he had first met at Cambridge University in 1956, and who became his wife in the summer of that year, committed suicide. Hughes was vilified for long after that, especially by feminists in America. In 1998, the year he died, Hughes broke his own self-imposed public silence about their relationship in a book of loose-weave poe ms called “Birthday Letters”.In this new and exhilarating collection of real letters, Hughes returns to the issue of his first wife's death, which he calls his “big and unmanageable event”. He felt his talent muffled by the perpetual eavesdropping upon his every move. Not until he decided to publish his own account of their relationship did the burden begin to lighten. The analysis is raw, pained and ruthlessly self-aware. For all the moral torment, the writing itself has the same rush and vigour that possessed Hughes's early poetry.

2019考研英语阅读理解常见题型总结 来源:智阅网 考研英语阅读理解虽然难度不小,但是还是有规律可循。掌握好了规律,可以有效提高我们的复习效率和复习成绩。所以,就来说说阅读理解的常见题型有哪些。 1.主旨大意题。 这类题实质考察考生对中心思想的理解,难度不高,具体应对技巧如下: A.关注各段落首句,尤其是第一段首句,这与西方人思维相关,他们习惯开门见山表达出自己的观点,然后广泛引用材料去论述。因此,一般而言首段的首句构成文章的中心句,而各段的首句构成各段的中心。 B.关注首段末句。有些作者习惯先列出一些传统的观点或先对一些具体现象进行说明,然后提出与之不同的观点或在结尾对现象进行总结,在接下来的段落中继续论述。对于这类文章,如果作者没有提出不同的观点,则最后总结性语句为文章中心,一旦提出不同或完全对立的观点,又在后文中加以论述,则作者提出的新观点为文章中心;如果新老观点均是对同一个结果的论述,那么该论述的结论为文章中心。 C.当不能直接找出主题句时,通常文章中作者给予叙述较多或强调较多的某一事物或某一观点即文章的中心。在题目作答时,可采用中心词定位法,排除不含中心词的选项,对比有中心词的选项,选择最接近中心的选项。 D.如果对选项仍有异议,可把有异议的选项逐个带入文章中,看哪个能更好的囊括文章中心。这是一个检验的过程。 2.事实细节题。 此类题占阅读总分40分中的50%左右,因此十分重要。注意,这类问题与推理性问题截然相反,都可以从原文中找到答案,只不过

为了迷惑考生,常常将原文进行改写,换一种说法。所以,照抄原文,一字不改的不一定就是答案,而与原文意思相同的,才是正确的。其基本应对技巧如下: A.基本原则是以中心为导向,忠实原文为基础,千万不可主观臆断,最好的方法是回到原文的出题点进行揣摩。 B.必须看清题目,尤其是当题目就某一个具体细节并且脱离文章中心的提问。一般来说,细节问题绝大部分是围绕文章中心进行出题,但不排除文中就一些具体的,因果互动现象的内容提问。 3.词汇短语题。 其分值不高,考察范围可分为两类。第一,纲内词汇词义的引申。考察考生对所熟悉的词汇在特定语境下正确含义的理解。一般来说,该词的本意不是解,但是其引申义上仍可以找到本意的影子。第二,纲外词汇词义的推断。 4.推断性问题。 此类题大概占20%左右的分值,总体难度不大,是考生的必得分点。中心导向依然是解题的宏观主线,其关键是忠实原文的推断。其应对策略和事实细节题类似,考生在该题型上的主要失误在于脱离文章主观臆断造成的。 5.语气态度题。 对作者态度的判断是构成阅读理解的两条宏观主线之一。因此,正确辨明作者对所叙述事物的态度,不仅关系到本类题型的解答,也潜在影响到其他问题的正确解答。这类题目主要从作者文中描述事物所用到的形容词,副词,动词等表达感情色彩的词汇入手。当选项不能确定时,再回到原文中找关键词。对这类题型,分清褒贬一般不难,是考生的必得分点。 我们还可以做做何老师的2019《考研英语阅读思路解析》,有助于我们更好地理解阅读理解这个题型,并且还能培养好应试心理。

2015考研英语阅读理解精读P18—工学类

2015考研英语阅读理解精读P18—工学 类 Passage 18 Tennis hopeful Jamie Hunt, 16, felt he could not become a world-class junior player while attending a regular school. The international circuit has players on the road 50% of the time--and it's hard to focus on your backhand when you're worrying about being on time for homeroom. So last year Hunt, who hones his ground strokes at Elite TNT Tennis Academy in April Sound, Texas, enrolled for academics in the $9,750-a-year University of Miami Online High School (UMOHS), a virtual school that caters to athletes. "The online school gives me the flexibility I need," says Hunt. "The workload is the same, but I can do it anywhere. It's nicer to ask a question face-to-face with a teacher, but in some ways it prepares me better for college because I have to be more independent." A year ago, Hunt's world junior ranking was 886; now it's 108. Virtual high schools, which allow students to take classes via PC, have emerged as an increasingly popular education alternative, particularly for on-the-go athletes. UMOHS has more than 400 students enrolled, 65% of whom are athletes. Accredited by the 100-year-old Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, UMOHS offers honors and advanced-placement classes. All course material is online, along with assignments and due dates. For help, says principal Howard Liebman, "a student may e-mail, instant message or call the teacher." Dallas mom Lori Bannon turned to another online school, Laurel Springs in Ojai, Calif. Bannon, who has a medical degree from Harvard, didn't want to compromise the education of her daughter Lindsay, 13, an élite gymnast who spends eight hours a day in the gym. "Regular school was not an option," says Bannon, "but I wanted to make sure she could go back at grade level if she quit gymnastics." Laurel Springs' enrollment has increased 35% a year for the past four years, to 1,800 students. At least 25% are either athletes or child entertainers. Educators are split on the merits of such schools. Paul Orehovec, an enrollment officer for the University of Miami, admits, "I was somewhat of a skeptic. But when I looked into their programs and accreditation, I was excited. UMOHS is the first online school to be granted membership in the National Honor Society." Kevin Roy, Elite's director of education, sees pitfalls and potential in virtual schools. "You will never have that wonderful teacher who inspires you for life," says Roy. "But the virtual school offers endless possibilities. I don't know where education's imagination will take this." 注(1):本文选自Time;11/29/2004, p149-149, 1/2p, 1c; 注(2):本文习题命题模仿对象2004年真题text 4第1、2题(1、2),text 1 第2 题(3),text 3第5 题(5)和2000年真题text 4第4题(4); 1.
