‎2014高考英语信息匹配、任务型阅读基础训练题（6）及答案 ‎【2014高考英语南京市、盐城市一模】‎ 任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)‎ 请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。‎ 注意：请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上。每个空格只填一个单词。‎ You’ve just graduated from business school and you feel like the world is your oyster, only to find that job offers aren’t knocking down your door as expected, making MBAs wonder why they’re not getting hired. This can be disheartening, but as an MBA, you know that perception(洞察力)is more important than reality. The key to getting hired is an employer’s perception of you. Many MBA graduates are guilty of unconsciously displaying signs that they are not the best fit for the job. Once you discover what these common mistakes are, you can put your MBA skills to use and strategize how to turn things in your favor and land the job you’ve been looking for.‎ ‎       Employers feel more comfortable hiring MBAs with experience because there is less need for training. Many MBAs mistakenly apply for jobs they are obviously not qualified for or which require more experience than they have, leaving them scratching their heads at why they’re not getting interviews. Recruiters want MBAs who can prove their ability to increase revenues, decrease costs, and help their business succeed in some way. Show that you can help the company by providing concrete examples of relevant experience.‎ ‎       MBAs often have great resumes showing all the right qualifications, but then blow the interview with inappropriate behavior, such as a lack of professional appearance, poor hygiene, or even a bad attitude. It’s necessary to be on your best behavior, dress appropriately, and not seem cocky, bored, or disinterested in the company. A little enthusiasm won’t hurt you, especially when it comes to a potential new job. Every business wants to put their most enthusiastic MBAs forward with important clients and customers, so be sure to show your passion for your work.‎ ‎       Another mistake you may be making unknowingly is how you portray yourself on social media. As an MBA, you know how important networking is, and these days, most of it is done online. Don’t assume that employers aren’t interested in your online profiles. Many employers now use social networking sites and online searches to check up on potential hires. Inappropriate photos and information, such as annoying material or implications of drinking and drug use are huge red flags to employers. Even discriminatory comments related to race, gender, or religion will leave employers with a bad impression. Make sure to remove any photos, content, or links that can work against you in an employer’s eyes.‎ ‎       Don’t forget that practice makes perfect when it comes to finding a great MBA job. Earning your MBA was a huge accomplishment, but there’s always room for improvement. Ask your classmates, peers, family, and even past co-workers or managers for feedback. Show multiple, trusted resources the job posting you’re interested in, your cover letter and resume. Take constructive criticism on how it ‎ can be better. Do mock interviews to help relieve any tension and gain a better idea of how you’d like to present yourself. With a few minor changes to your resume and the way you interact with others, you’ll be hearing “you’re hired” in no time!‎ Title Why MBA graduates are not getting hired ‎(71) Commonly-made ▲ ‎ Many of you MBA graduates unconsciously display unfavorable signs, and (72)  ▲   to bring out the best in yourselves.‎ ‎◇While (73) ▲   for jobs, you do not take your qualifications and experience into consideration.‎ ‎◇You (74) ▲   inappropriately, thus losing a good opportunity to have an interview.‎ ‎◇You make the (75) ▲   that employers know nothing about your online profiles.‎ Possible solutions You should make full use of your skills to take a turn for the (76) ▲  .‎ ‎◇Try to show your (77) ▲   to help the company, providing concrete examples of relevant experience.‎ ‎◇Be well-behaved, and (78) ▲   to please the company.‎ ‎◇Remove from the Internet your inappropriate photos, information, and discriminatory comments that may (79) ▲   your employers unfavorably.‎ Conclusion You are bound to (80) ▲   in job hunting if you keep in mind that practice makes perfect and there is always room for improvement.‎ ‎【参考答案】‎ ‎71. mistakes           72. fail                  73. applying          74. behave            ‎ ‎75. assumption 76. better               77. ability/capacity/qualifications               ‎ ‎78. enthusiastic/passionate     79. impress          80. succeed ‎(2013·蚌埠市一模)‎ Trash removal(清除垃圾)is something every person needs to think about for their residence(住宅) because organizing a cleanup event can make the community more beautiful and be good for the environment.

I still remember that chilly December day, sitting in science class. I'd finished a worksheet early and picked up a TIME for Kids magazine. A piece of news caught my eye: NASA was holding an essay contest to name its Mars rover(火星探测器)．Before I even knew anything else about it，a single word flooded my 11yearold mind: Curiosity.‎ I couldn't want for the bell to ring so I could get started on my essay. That afternoon, I raced home, sat down at the computer, and typed until my fingers ached. “Curiosity is an everlasting flame that burns in everyone's mind...”‎ Five months later, my mom received a phone call, and immediately, a wide smile spread across her face.‎ On August 5,2012，at 10：31 p．m., the rover named Curiosity touched down safely on the surface of Mars, and I was honored to have a frontrow seat in NASA.‎ Curiosity is such an important part of who I am. I have always been fascinated by the stars, the planets, the sky and the universe. I remember as a little girl, my grandmother and I would sit together in the backyard for hours. She'd tell me stories and point out the stars. Grandma lived in China, thousands of miles away from my home in Kansas, but the stars kept us together even when we were apart. They were always there, yet there was so much I didn't know about them. That's what I love so much about space.‎ People often ask me why we go to faraway places like Mars. My answer is simple because we're curious. We human beings do not just hole_up in one place. We are constantly wondering and trying to find out what's over the hill and beyond the horizon.‎ ‎1．How did Clara get the news about the essay contest？(no more than 10 words)‎ ‎_______________________________________________________‎ 答案：By reading a TIME for Kids magazine.‎ Or: From a TIME for Kids magazine.‎ ‎2．Why did Clara have a frontrow seat in NASA？(no more than 10 words)‎ ‎_______________________________________________________‎ 答案：She won the essay contest held by NASA.‎ Or: She named the Mars rover“ Curiosity”．‎ Or: “Curiosity” was chosen as the name of the Mars rover.‎ ‎3．What does Clara remember about the time spent with Grandma？(no more than 15 words)‎ ‎_______________________________________________________‎ 答案：She sat together with Grandma listening to her stories about the stars.‎ Or: Her grandma told her stories about the stars.‎ Or: They sat together talking about the stars.‎ ‎4．What does the underlined phrase “hole up” mean？(1 word)‎ ‎_______________________________________________________‎ 答案：Stay/ Remain/ Live/ Hide.‎ ‎5．In your opinion, why is curiosity important？(no more than 20 words)‎ ‎_______________________________________________________‎ 答案：Curiosity is important because it leads to discover or invention.‎ Or: With curiosity, we keep asking questions and exploring the world unknown.‎ Or: Curiosity drives us through our lives so that we never stop wondering about the things beyond our knowledge.‎
