一、分词形容词概述
英语中,有一些动词的现在分词和过去分词可以转化为形容词用法,在句中主要用作定语、表语、宾语补足语和状语。其中有一类表示人的心理或情绪变化的“使令性动词”,由此演变而来的现在分词和过去分词,已经成为形容词,我们称为“分词形容词”。它们属于同一个词源:现在分词表示事物本身的性质以及给他人的感受,意为“令人怎样”;过去分词表示人的心理和情绪的变化,是被动的感觉,意为“感到怎样”。一般都认为,以-ed结尾的分词形容词修饰人,以-ing结尾的分词形容词修饰事物。
其区别主要在于:
1.以-ing结尾的分词形容词,常用来描述人或事物本身具有的特征,即人或事物具有能够令人产生某种情绪的作用或能力。
This is a disappointing result.这是一个令人失望的结果。
2.以-ed结尾的分词形容词,常用来描述人对某事物做出的反应,而产生一种 被动的心理变化或情绪,其主语通常是人。
He wasn't surprised when he heard the news.听到这个消息时,他并没有感到惊讶。
3.同源的情绪使令动词、现在分词和过去分词,用法对比如下,仔细体会其含义:
(1) The news excited all of us. That is to say, the news was exciting, and we were all excited at the news.
这消息使我们大家都很兴奋。也就是说,这个消息是令人兴奋的,我们都对这个消息感到兴奋。
(2) It is encouraging news that our team has won the match. Before that, my parents encouraged me to compete, and I also received a lot of encouragement from my friends. Now I am really encouraged.我们队赢了这场比赛,这是个令人鼓舞的消息。此前,我父母鼓励我参加比赛,我也从我的朋友
那里得到了许多鼓励,现在我真的受到了鼓舞。
(3 ) This is a shocking sight, it has shocked everyone, and everyone is shocked at the sight. 这是一个令人震惊的景象,它震惊了所有人,每个人都对这一景象感到震惊。
(4 ) The tiger was so frightening, it frightened the children, and the children were frightened by the tiger.老虎太可怕了,吓到这些孩子了,孩子们被老虎吓坏了。
(5 ) This is amazing news, it has amazed everyone, and everyone is amazed at the news.这是令人惊讶的消息,它让每个人惊讶,每个人都对这个消息感到惊讶。
(6) This is a puzzling question, and it has puzzled me. So I am puzzled at the question.这是一个令人费解的问题,它使我迷惑不解。所以我对这个问题感到困惑。
(7 ) His experience was terrifying, and it terrified his children. All of them were terrified.他的经历很可怕,所以吓坏了他的孩子。他们都吓坏了。
(8 ) The noise has disturbed all of us. It is disturbing noise because it has made us feel disturbed.这噪音使我们大家都不安。这是令人不安的噪音,因为它让我们感到了不安。
(9 ) This is a confusing question, and it has confused us. So everyone is confused about the question.
这是一个令人困惑的问题,它把我们大家弄糊涂了。所以每个人都对这个问题感到困惑。
( 10 ) This is astonishing news, because it has astonished everyone. So everyone is astonished at the news.这是一个令人震惊的消息,因为它让每个人都惊讶。所以每个人都对这个消息感到惊讶。
(11 ) This is a boring lecture. We are all bored with it, because it has really bored all of us.这是一个无聊的讲座。我们都对它感到厌烦,因为它真的让我们所有人感到无聊。
( 12 )What he said convinced us. His words are really convincing, so we are convinced that he is an honest man.他的话使我们信服。他的话很有说服力,所以我们相信他是个诚实的人。
( 13 )I think this is an amusing story because it has amused us. Of course it makes us amused rather than amazed, because an amazing story is not really amusing.我认为这是一个有趣的故事,因为它把我们逗乐了。当然,它使我们感到有趣而不是惊奇,因为一个令人惊奇的故事并不一定真的有趣。
二、分词形容词作表语
The speech you have delivered is very interesting and encouraging.你的演讲很有趣且很鼓舞人。
Her point of view was very convincing.她的观点很令人信服。
He became inspired when he thought about helping ordinary people exposed to cholera.
当他想到帮助那些感染霍乱的普通人时,他感到很振奋。

三、分词形容词作定语

The worried parents were all concerned for the children’s safety.忧心忡忡的家长们都为孩子们的安全担忧。

四、分词形容词作宾补

She found the story quite interesting.她觉得这个故事很有趣。
His jokes made the children amused.他的笑话把孩子们逗乐了。
The experiment result made us disappointed.实验结果使我们感到失望。
五、分词形容词作状语
分词形容词作状语,可以从非谓语动词作状语的角度去理解。由过去分词变来的形容词,加不加being均可,因为它曾经是分词,本身就是非谓语动词。例如:
(Being) worried about his health, she couldn't sleep.由于担心他的健康,她睡不着。
(Being) surprised at the news, he kept asking how.他听到这个消息很惊讶,一直问怎么回事。
如果单个的形容词作原因状语,这时应加being,变成非谓语动词,即现在分词。单个的形容词之前加being,主要是为了避免单调。例如:
Being ill, he can attend today's meeting.由于生病,他不能参加今天的会议了
Being hungry,they had to look for food.由于饥饿,他们不得不寻找食物。
(1)常见的表示情绪变化的现在分词形容词和过去分词形

satisfying令人满意的 satisfied感到满意的;
shocking骇人听闻的 shocked震惊的;
surprising令人惊讶的 surprised感到惊讶的;
tiring令人疲劳的 tired感到疲劳的;

(2)常见的复合分词形容词:
badly-paid低工资的 long-lived长寿的
newly-married新婚的 easy-going随和的
clear-cut 轮廓鲜明的;清晰的 ever-lasting 永恒的
one-eyed一只眼的 cold-hearted无情的
peace-loving爱好和平的 well-written写得好的
nice-smelling香气扑鼻的 ice-covered冰封的
warm-hearted热心肠的 absent-minded心不在焉的
able- minded能干的 like-minded看法相同的
good-tempered好脾气的 middle-aged中年的
five-storeyed五层的 fine-looking美貌的
long-standing长久的 well-received受欢迎的
well-known著名的 man-made人工的
grass-covered被草覆盖的 far-reaching意义深远的
newly-built新建的 forward-looking有远见的
ordinary-looking相貌平平的 snow-covered 被雪覆盖的
这类带连字符的复合分词形容词,一般都是作定语,不作表语。
例如:
a well-received story 一个受欢迎的故事
a well-known writer一位著名的作家
a man-made lake一座人工湖
the grass-covered ground被草覆盖的地面
a far-reaching speech一个意义深远的演讲
a newly-built library一座新建的图书馆
(3)过去分词形容词作表语和被动语态的区别:
有些行为动词变成过去分词后,由动作变成了状态,成为形容词。例如: broken (被打破后的结果), written (写完后的情况)等。如何区分过去分词作表语表示状态还是被动语态?特征比较:
The vase is broken. It isn't worth so much money.(表示状态)
The vase was broken by my little brother yesterday. (被动语态)
The article is written in simple English. (表示状态)
The article was written in 1990. (被动语态)
通过比较发现,过去分词作表语表示状态,多用一般现在时,不用by sb.;被动语态表示动作,常跟过去时间连用,可以加by sb.
以下都是常见的分词形容词表状态:
He is an experienced teacher.他是个有经验的教师。
This is an organized trip.这是一次有组织的旅行。
Some villagers died from polluted water.有些村民死于被污染的水。
She has a broken heart.她有一颗破碎的心。
a written report一份书面报告 a retired teacher退休教师
a returned overseas Chinese归国华侨 a developed country发达国家
faded flowers凋谢的花 departed friends离去的朋友
used books用过的书 cooked food熟食
boiled water开水 furnished rooms有家具的房间
fallen leaves落叶
(4)动名词作表语和现在分词形容词作表语的区别:
a. Her job is looking after children.
b. Her job is boring.
句a的意思是“她的工作是照料孩子”。这是动名词短语looking after children作表语,它说明主语的具体内容。主语和表语是对等关系,所以可以互换位置而意思保持不变: Looking after children is her job.
句b的意思是“她的工作很无聊”。这是现在分词boring作表语,表明boring具备了形容词的作用。由于它是由使令性动词bore变化而来,具有主动使令意味,所以,可以转换为一个主谓宾的句子: Her job bores her.她的工作令她厌倦。
但是,“Her job is boring." 这句话,不能像"Her job is looking after children."那样主语和表语可以交换位置。我们不能说: Boring is her job.
特别提示:
凡是表语可以跟主语交换位置的,都是“确认性表语”。如果表语不能跟主语交换位置,则是“归属性表语”。这是区别动名词作表语和现在分词形容词作表语的关键标志。
“确认性表语”举例(主表可以交换) :
His hobby is collecting stamps.→Collecting stamps is his hobby. (正)
Mary is my best friend.→My best friend is Mary. (正)
“归属性表语”举例(主表不可交换):
The news is very exciting.→Very exciting is the news. (误)
Mary is hard-working.→Hard-working is Mary. (误)
①动名词作表语,说明主语的具体内容。例如:
His ambition is working as a lawyer.他的抱负是当律师。
The only way to cure your disease is going to bed.治疗你的病的唯一办法是上床睡觉。
Her job is keeping the offices clean.她的工作是清洁办公室。
Her work is teaching children music.她的工作是教孩子音乐。
His only wish is finding a job in an office.他唯一的愿望就是找一份办公室的工作。
The ant queen's full-time job is laying eggs.蚁后的专职工作是产卵。
The boy's hobby is playing games online.这个男孩的爱好是玩网上游戏。
My favourite sport is playing tennis我最喜欢的运动是打网球。
Her first delight was going to the tower.她第一件想做的事情是参观塔楼。
以上例句中,表语跟主语是对等关系,是主语的“确认性表语”。所以可以交换位置而意思保持不变。例如:
His ambition is working as a lawyer.他的抱负是当律师。
→Working as a lawyer is his ambition.当律师是他的抱负。
The only way to cure your disease is going to bed.
治疗你的病的唯一办法是上床睡觉。
→Going to bed is the only way to cure your disease.
上床睡觉是治疗你的病的唯一办法。
②现在分词作表语,说明该现在分词具备了形容词的作用。它表示句子的主语所具备的某种性质,这个性质是主动的,具备使令意味,让人在情绪上发生变化。
Tom's progress in English is satisfying.汤姆在英语上的进步是令人满意的。
The examination result is discouraging.考试结果很令人沮丧。
The story about space travelling is interesting.那个关于字宙旅行的故事很有趣。
The film was boring to a degree.这部影片非常枯燥。
The songs we heard last night were most inspiring.昨晚我们听的歌曲很鼓舞人。
The joke he told us was amusing.他给我们讲的笑话很有趣。
It was amazing that he knew nothing about the event.他对这个事件毫不知情,真让人感到诧异,
It is astonishing to me that he should be absent.他竟然缺席,使我十分惊异。
That game was not very exciting.那场比赛并不怎么精彩刺激。
The people upstairs are very annoying.楼上的那些人非常令人厌烦。
The spelling of English is often puzzling.英语的拼写常常使人伤脑筋。
The meaning of this word is confusing.这个词的意思很令人费解。
I don't like making speeches in public; it' s so embarrassing.我不喜欢在公开场合演说,太难为情了。
My job can be very frustrating sometimes.我的工作有时非常令人无奈。
The soft music sounds very pleasing to the ear.那轻柔的音乐听起来十分悦耳。
The overall picture for farming is encouraging.农业的总体形势是令人鼓舞的。
This work is tiring; it has tired me out.这工作很累人,可把我累坏了。
Walking in the rain is really fascinating.雨中漫步非常令人陶醉。
The news from the front is very disturbing.来自前线的消息令人极为不安。
The crawl of a snake is terrifying.蛇爬行起来真可怕。
以上例句中,表语跟主语不是对等关系,是“归属性表语”,所以不可以互换位置。
例句中的现在分词形容词,说明主语具备了“使令”意味:令人感觉如何。我们可以把这个分词转换为动词作句子的谓语,后面补上所缺的宾语。例如:
The service here is disappointing.这儿的服务令人失望。
→The service here disappoints us.这儿的服务令我们失望。
Her facility for languages was surprising.她在语言方面的才能令人吃惊。
→Her facility for languages surprised us all.她在语言方面的才能令我们吃惊。
The speed of the bus was frightening.这辆公共汽车的速度真吓人。
→The speed of the bus frightened the passengers.这辆公共汽车的速度吓坏了乘客。
◆观点
a frightened look还是a frightening look?
①实际上,“过去分词形 容词修饰人,现在分词形容词修饰事物”,这个说法是不全面的。这只是一种表象,不是问题的实质。请看下面的句子:
You always look frightening when you wake up.你醒来时总是露出令人害怕的样子。
You always look frightened when you wake up.你醒来时总是露出感到恐惧的样子
The little boy is very interesting.这个小男孩很有趣。
The little boy is very interested in the toy.这个小男孩对这个玩具很感兴趣。
同样是人,为何出现上述两种情况?问题的关键在哪里呢?
本书认为,问题的关键在于分词形容词的性质:现在分词形容词表主动,过去分词形容词表被动。所以,过去分词或现在分词都可以修饰人。
②有的语法书和教辅书特别指出:像look(表情),expression(表情),voice(声音),smile(微笑)等词,一般用过去分词修饰,如:a frightened look, an astonished expression, a satisfied smile,an excited voice。事实果真如此吗?请看例句:
You look frightening. Since you look frightening, you have a frightening look.你看起来令人恐惧,因为这样,所以你有一个令人恐惧的表情。
You look frightened. Since you look frightened, you have a frightened look.你看起来很恐惧,因为这样,所以你有一个恐惧的表情。
又如:
a satisfied smile: (感到)满意的微笑(这种微笑是在人感到满意后表现出来的微笑)
a satisfying smile:(让人)满意的微笑(这种微笑是让人满意的微笑。意味着笑得真诚自然,不做作)
an astonished expression:(感到)惊讶的表情(这种表情是在人感到吃惊后显现出来的表情)
an astonishing expression:(令人)惊讶的表情(这种表情是让人吃惊的表情。意味着这个表情有些可怕,使人惊讶)
an excited voice:(感到)兴奋的声音(这是人在兴奋时,说话带出来的声音)
an exciting voice:(令人)兴奋的声音(意味着说话的人声音很有号召力,令人鼓舞,令人兴奋)
特别提示:
人的表情、声音或微笑,是通过人的情绪表现出来的,它同样有两种情况。由于现在分词形容词表主动,过去分词形容词表被动,所以,反映在同一个人或事物身上,可以有两种不同的情况或结果,所以要从根本上理解这个问题,不要死记硬背某些条条框框。一般都认为: Tigers are terrifying老虎很可怕。但是,它们自己也有害怕的时候。大家一定熟悉唐代文学家柳宗元创作的一篇寓言小品《黔之驴》。其中有一句话是“驴一鸣,虎大骇”,翻译成英语是“When the donkey brays, the tiger is terrified.",这里,老虎不再是令人恐惧,而是自已感到恐惧了。这就是语言背后的逻辑。

一、七选五
What Are the Roots of Your Self-Esteem?
Self-esteem is a person's subjective assessment of his or her worth to himself or herself. Self- esteem covers various beliefs about oneself (such as 'Tm a failure" and "I'm beautiful") as well as physiological states, including sadness, joy, and shame. The more we believe that we are worthy of happiness and good things in life, the more self-fulfilled we will be. When we don't believe that we are worthy of these things, our ability to enjoy them can suffer. ____1____
Healthy self-esteem as an adult can be a gift given in your childhood. It is a blessing that most people overlook. There are so many ways adults with high self-esteem were supported as children that resulted in them having high self-esteem. For instance, they were praised for what they had achieved.
____2____They likely experienced affection and were given enough attention. It is also possible that they excelled in studies or in sports and were admired for it by peers.
____3____As children, many of these people were criticized, yelled at, or abused in one way or another. There is also a high chance that they were given no attention by the adults who were supposed to care for them. In some cases, adults with poor self-esteem were often ridiculed for their shortcomings or bullied by peers.
It is common that these adults also believe that in order to be appreciated they need to be perfect.
____4____There are people who are obsessed with their careers or hobbies because in their mind they need to tie their worthiness to something concrete. Oftentimes these people have to pretend to be something they are not just to get approval.
How you feel about yourself impacts how you live your life. People with high self-esteem tend to have better relationships than those with low self-esteem. ____5____ So if you struggle to reach out for assistance, it could be rooted in your low self-esteem.
A. There is also a good chance that they were spoken to respectfully.
B. When we start to doubt what's important in life, we tend to do less of it.
C. Since self-esteem is connected to how we perform, it is important to work on it.
D. People with poor self-esteem, on the other hand, often experienced the opposite.
E. This creates an image in their mind that without accomplishment they are worthless.
F. They face failure too, but they understand that failure or success doesn't define them.
G. High self-esteem enables you to ask for help and support from the people around you when you need it.
【答案】16. B 17. A 18. D 19. E 20. G
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。自尊是一个人对自己价值的主观评价。自尊包括对自己的各种信念和生理状态。文章对高自尊和低自尊的人进行了对比和说明。
【16题详解】
根据前文“When we don't believe that we are worthy of these things, our ability to enjoy them can suffer. (当我们不相信自己值得拥有这些东西时,我们享受它们的能力就会受到伤害)”可知,此处是指当我们对人生和自己产生怀疑时,就会有不好的影响。所以选项B. When we start to doubt what's important in life, we tend to do less of it. (当我们开始怀疑生活中重要的东西,我们往往会对此做得更少)切合文意,且和前文句式相同。故选B。
【17题详解】

【18题详解】
根据后文“In some cases, adults with poor self-esteem were often ridiculed for their shortcomings or bullied by peers. (在某些情况下,缺乏自尊的成年人经常因为自己的缺点而被嘲笑或被同龄人欺负)”可知,此处是讲缺乏自尊的人往往不被尊重,所以选项D. People with poor self-esteem, on the other hand, often experienced the opposite. (另一方面,缺乏自尊的人所经历的往往恰恰相反)切合文意。故选D。
【19题详解】
根据前文“It is common that these adults also believe that in order to be appreciated they need to be perfect. (这些成年人也普遍认为,为了被欣赏,他们需要变得完美)”可知,选项E中的this是指人们认为为了被欣赏他们需要变得完美,根据后文“There are people who are obsessed with their careers or hobbies because in their mind they need to tie their worthiness to something concrete. (有些人痴迷于自己的事业或爱好,因为在他们的脑海中,他们需要把自己的价值与具体的东西联系起来)”可知,有些人往往把自己的价值和成就联系在一起,所以选项E. This creates an image in their mind that without accomplishment they are worthless. (这在他们的脑海中造成了一种形象,没有成就,他们是毫无价值的)切合文意。故选E。
【20题详解】
根据后文“So if you struggle to reach out for assistance, it could be rooted in your low self-esteem. (所以如果你挣扎着去寻求帮助,那可能是因为你的自卑)”可知,自尊心高的人不会纠结于是否要寻求帮助,所以选项G. High self-esteem enables you to ask for help and support from the people around you when you need it. (高自尊能让你在需要的时候向周围的人寻求帮助和支持)切合文意。故选G。

【课后巩固训练】
一、阅读理解
A
In the animal kingdom, killer whales (虎鲸) are social stars: they travel in varied family groups, care for grandchildren, and even imitate human speech. Now, scientists are adding one more behavior to the list: forming fast friendships. A new study shows killer whales can rival animals such as chimpanzees and macaques (a kind of monkey), and even humans when it comes to the kind of “social touch” that indicates strong bonds.
Some ocean animals maintain social structures — including male dolphins that learn the “names” of their close allies (盟友). But there is little data about wild killer whales. That’s where drone technology came in. Michael Weiss, a behavioral ecologist, teamed up with his colleagues to launch drones, flying them 30 to 120 meters above a group of killer whales. That was high enough not to trouble the whales, marking the first time drones have been used to study friendly physical contact in whales.
The researchers recorded over 800 instances of physical contact between individuals. Those included hugs, back-to-back and nose-to-nose touches between pairs of whales. Other whales playfully threw young whales into the air, letting them fall into the water. Besides, the drone images revealed clear preferences among individuals, usually for one “best friend” of the same sex and age. Take J49 and J51 — two distantly related young males aged 9 and 6 — for instance. “Every time you see a group of whales, those two are right there interacting with each other,” Weiss says.
The young led most of these interactions, rather than the older females or males. Older males in particular were less important. “The young individuals really seem to be the glue (胶水) holding the groups together,” Weiss says. As individuals age, this gradual loss of “centrality” is known in many social mammals, including humans. That finding is “especially appealing” to Stacey Tecot, who wasn’t involved in the study. “Scientists have long observed this social aging trend in animals, but there are still many unanswered questions,” she says. That’s certainly on the researchers’ radar. “We’re already gathering new data, with more advanced equipment,” says Weiss.
1. What does the underlined word “rival” in Paragraph l probably mean?
A. Benefit from. B. Be equal to. C. Depend on. D. Be fond of.
2. What is new about Weiss’ research?
A. The research method. B. The variety of species.
C. The size of the research team. D. The time spent on the research.
3. What did Weiss find about J49 and J51?
A. They have a stable friendship.
B. Their interactions are more complicated.
C. Their communicating ways change frequently.
D. They prefer playing with young female whales.
4. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. More researchers will be involved in the study.
B. Other scientists take a negative attitude to the research.
C. Researchers will collect more data to study killer whales.
D. Researchers will uncover the social aging trend in animals soon.
【答案】4. B 5. A 6. A 7. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要介绍了社交明星虎鲸的建立快速友谊的能力。行为生态学家迈克尔·韦斯(Michael Weiss)与同事合作发射无人机研究虎鲸的友好身体接触。
【4题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一自然段“Now, scientists are adding one more behavior to the list: forming fast friendships.”(现在,科学家们又给这个清单增加了一种行为:建立快速友谊。)可知,科学家们对于虎鲸的社交能力又有一项新的发现——建立快速友谊。所以可推知下文“A new study shows killer whales can rival animals such as chimpanzees and macaques (a kind of monkey), and even humans when it comes to the kind of “social touch” that indicates strong bonds.”(一项新的研究表明,虎鲸可以与黑猩猩和猕猴(猴子的一种)等动物,甚至人类rival,因为它们的“社交接触”表明它们之间有着牢固的联系。)是说虎鲸的建立快速友谊的能力可以与黑猩猩和猕猴等动物,甚至人类相匹敌。A. Benefit from.从……受益;B. Be equal to.与……相当;C. Depend on.依靠;D. Be fond of.喜爱。故选B。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二自然段“But there is little data about wild killer whales. That’s where drone technology came in. Michael Weiss, a behavioral ecologist, teamed up with his colleagues to launch drones, flying them 30 to 120 meters above a group of killer whales.”(但关于野生虎鲸的数据很少。这就是无人机技术的起源。行为生态学家迈克尔·韦斯(Michael Weiss)与同事合作发射无人驾驶飞机,在一群虎鲸上方30至120米处飞行。)可知,迈克尔·韦斯使用无人机进行研究,也就是说他的研究方法新颖。故选A。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三自然段“Take J49 and J51 — two distantly related young males aged 9 and 6 — for instance. “Every time you see a group of whales, those two are right there interacting with each other,” Weiss says.”(以J49和J51这两个9岁和6岁的远亲年轻雄性虎鲸为例。韦斯说:“每次你看到一群虎鲸时,它们就在那里相互交流。”)可知,J49和J51有稳定的友谊。故选A。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““Scientists have long observed this social aging trend in animals, but there are still many unanswered questions,” she says. That’s certainly on the researchers’ radar. “We’re already gathering new data, with more advanced equipment,” says Weiss.”(她说:“科学家们长期以来一直观察到动物的这种社会老龄化趋势,但仍有许多问题没有答案。”。这当然是研究人员关注的问题。Weiss说:“我们已经在用更先进的设备收集新数据。”)可知,研究人员将收集更多数据来研究虎鲸。故选C。
B
Generation Z is different. As a whole, Americans born between the late 1990s and early 2000s are less likely to have work or look for it: their labour- force-participation rate is 71%, compared with 75% for millennials (born between 1980 and the late 1990s) and 78% for Generation X (born in the decade or so to 1980) when each came of age. As a result, they make up a smaller share of the workforce. With graduation ceremonies behind them, the latest group of diploma-holders are entering the job market. What they want from employers is also not quite the same as in generations past.
Although Gen-Z employees felt more lonely and isolated than their older colleagues at the start of the pandemic, the ability to work remotely has brought new possibilities. The benefits go beyond working in your pyjamas. Many are taking calls from beach chairs and hammocks (吊床) in more comfortable places or fleeing big cities in search for cheaper or larger homes.
This has big implications. Industries with jobs that cannot be done from home are falling out of favour with recent graduates. A study by ManpowerGroup, an employment company, suggests an inverse relationship (反比关系) between talent shortages and flexible working policies. The sectors which are either less able to offer remote work or have been slower to embrace it- including construction, finance and manufacturing-have faced some of the biggest skills gaps for all types of job.
That in turn has accelerated a pre-existing trend of young employees trading Wall Street for Silicon Valley. Now technology bosses are more willing than their opposite numbers in finance to let employees work from home (or anywhere else). Annual rankings of employer desirability by Universum, a graduate-staffing consultancy, bear this out. In 2008 the list of best employers graded by American graduates was dominated by big banks and the Big Four consulting firms. By 2021 seven of the ten highest spots were occupied by tech and media giants.
5. What does the underlined word “diploma-holders" in the first paragraph refer to?
A. Employees. B. Students. C. Graduates. D. Shareholders.
6. Why do Gen-Z employees prefer work remotely?
A. They want more holidays on the beach.
B. They love wearing pyjamas while working.
C. They want to work in a more flexible way.
D. They can’t afford the residents in big cities.
7. What does the study by ManpowerGroup suggest?
A. All walks of life are facing some of the biggest skills gaps.
B. Construction, finance and manufacturing can’t offer remote work.
C. Industries with flexible working policies may suffer talent shortages.
D. Industries with jobs that cannot be done from home are less popular.
8. Why does the author mention Wall Street and Silicon Valley?
A. To weigh up the pros and cons of the two industries.
B. To prove industries in technology are more appealing.
C. To predict the change of preference among employees.
D. To show Silicon Valley is a better place to settle down.
【答案】8. C 9. C 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了Z世代(也称为“互联网世代”,通常是指1995年至2009年出生的一代人)毕业生对就业需求的变化,他们更青睐能够让他们在家灵活办公的科技公司。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段划线词前半句“With graduation ceremonies behind them, (随着毕业典礼的结束,)”可知,随着毕业典礼的结束,最新一批文凭持有者正在进入就业市场。可以推出,diploma-holders指的是那些参加完毕业典礼,准备进入就业市场的毕业生。这与diploma-holder“毕业文凭持有者”的字面意思也相符。故选C。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Although Gen-Z employees felt more lonely and isolated than their older colleagues at the start of the pandemic, the ability to work remotely has brought new possibilities. The benefits go beyond working in your pyjamas. Many are taking calls from beach chairs and hammocks (吊床) in more comfortable places or fleeing big cities in search for cheaper or larger homes.(尽管在疫情开始时,Z世代的员工比年长的同事更感到孤独和孤立,但远程工作的能力带来了新的可能性。这样做的好处不仅仅是穿着睡衣工作。许多人在更舒适的地方坐在沙滩椅和吊床上接听电话,或者逃离大城市,寻找更便宜或更大的房子。)”可知,远程办公带来了很多新的可能性。其中的好处不仅仅是可以居家工作,许多人还可以在更闲适的地方处理工作电话,或者在大城市以外的地方找到更便宜或更宽敞的房子。这些都是一种更为灵活的工作方式。故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“A study by ManpowerGroup, an employment company, suggests an inverse relationship (反比关系) between talent shortages and flexible working policies.(招聘公司ManpowerGroup的研究表明,人才短缺程度和就业政策的灵活性之间成反比关系。)”可推断,很难实现远程办公或者对远程办公接受较慢的行业,其各种岗位都或多或少存在着重大技能人才短缺的问题。故选D。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“That in turn has accelerated a pre-existing trend of young employees trading Wall Street for Silicon Valley. (这反过来又加速了年轻员工从华尔街转投硅谷的趋势。)”可知,上一段提到的人才短缺问题,反过来又加速了年轻求职者从美国金融中心华尔街转投高科技事业云集的硅谷的既有倾向。可见科技产业更加受欢迎。故选B。
