内容正文:
Test 4
语篇导读:本文是一篇议论文。文章探讨了人们对于没有
工作的未来生活的态度。
13.B细节理解题。根据文章第一段的“Some imagine that the
coming work-free world will be defined by inequality:A few
wealthy people will own all the wealth,and the masses will
struggle in a wasteland.A different prediction holds that
without jobs to give their lives meaning,future people will
simply become lazy and depressed.”可知,人们对无工作世界
的预测是消极的。故选B。
14.D词义猜测题。画线词前的Such visions指的是第一段中
那些消极的观点,再根据画线词后的being unemployed in a
society built on the concept of employment可知,以就业为基
础的社会中,失业肯定是不好的事情。由此推知,画线词
downsides意为“缺点”。故选D。
15.C细节理解题。根据文章第三段的“In a world in which I
don't have to work,I might feel rather different-perhaps
different enough to throw myself into a hobby with the
enthusiasm usually reserved for professional matters.”可知,
John Danaher认为人们可以在没有工作的未来过上充满魅
力的生活。故选C。
16.A推理判断题。文章第三段讲述了John Danaher对于未来
的观点:人们未来不用工作的生活将充满魅力。接下来后两
段介绍了Daniel Everett对于Piraha这个狩猎采集部落的研
究,通读最后两段可以看出,Daniel Everett的研究内容刚好
佐证了John Danaher的观点。故选A。

项中的“communication”与空前一句中的“communicated”相
呼应。故选E。
【解题技巧】利用词汇关系解题:
词汇复现法是为了保证文章前后衔接而经常使用的一种写作
手段,即在文章中对同一个概念进行重复描述,从而使得同样
的意思在文章中不同位置反复出现。做题时考生要注意选项
中出现的与正文意思相同、相近或相反的词汇。
词汇复现:原词复现、同义词或近义词复现、反义词复现、同源
词复现。
识别词汇复现的方法:1.着重阅读空前、空后两句,锁定关键
词,在选项中查找关键词:2.正确选项中的关键词一般重复前
一句中的关键词,且与下一句的关键词呼应。
3.G下文“The friend who is remaining”和“the friend who has
moved'”提到朋友的两个不同处境,G项“你可能是朋友中离
开的那一方,也可能是被留下的那一方”指出了异地友谊中
离开的一方和留下的一方,其中“the friend who left'”和“the
one who was left behind”分别对应下文“the friend who has
moved'”和“The friend who is remaining'”。故选G。
4.A分析文章结构可知,设空处的内容是维系异地友谊的第
四个方法,是第五段的小标题。下文“Anniversaries and
birthdays camry even more weight in long-distance friendships."
讲的是诸如周年纪念日和生日等重要的日子对于维系异地友
谊是非常重要的,A项“记得重要的日子”符合语境。故选A。
5.F设空处所在句子的后半句“but long-distance friendships-
even close ones-may require more conscious effort to sustain"
讲的是我们要更加自觉地维系异地友谊,其中“but”说明后半
句与设空处形成转折。F项“朋友之间很容易通过社交媒体
产生一种联结感”与后半句中的“require more conscious effort
to sustain”形成转折,且选项中的“social media”呼应该段小标
题中的“technology”。故选F。

What Can We Learn from The Art of War?
The Art of War is one of the world's most famous and influential military texts,written by the Chinese
strategist Sun Tzu.A famous military text has now turned into general principles for conflict.It is
recommended by all the famous business leaders and even sports coaches.
1 Whenever there is a battle within ourselves,or a conflict in an organization,The Art of War
provides the necessary guidelines for victory.Want to know more about the lessons it provides?Take a look!
Choose your battles carefully.
One of the first lessons that we learn from The Art of War is to choose our battles.It is better to
understand when you should engage in a conflict and when it will be wise to avoid any argument at all.2
Plan and strategize.
Planning is the core of The Art of War.3 In fact,it is also important in everyday life to have
clear smart goals to increase your chances of success.In war,the way is to avoid what is strong and to strike
at what is weak.So whether you are going to start a business,or face a difficulty,it is always a better idea to
approach these everyday problems with a strategy.
4
Knowing yourself is important but it is also equally important to know your enemy.Underestimating your
enemy can be the biggest mistake you make.Understand your strengths but also recognize your weaknesses.
