必修5Unit 4Making the news.閱讀理解AAt 23, my career got going. I was midway through a masters degree at the London School of Economics and Political Science and had been hired as a parttime reporter for a finance website. I got a great onemonth review and my boss asked if I was interested in staying at the pany after graduation. However, balancing graduate studies with work was challenging. To deal with it, I checked my real self at my office door. I came in to work, greeted my colleagues and listened more than I contributed in each morning meeting. The small team I worked with often seemed busy, so rather than giving ideas that might get turned down, I stayed back. After four months, my boss called me into his office. The meeting was going well until he told me that despite the great work I had produced, the team had held a meeting and decided, “We dont think its the right fit.” I must have looked confused.“Youre ambitious, intelligent and will be very successful，” my boss said. “But you havent made enough effort to join the team. You lost the enthusiasm you showed in your interview. That wont work long term, and if I could give you one piece of advice, it would be to get your guard down.” I couldnt believe that performing well at my job wasnt enough to keep it. But I knew my boss was right. They knew that when they hired me, I had no experience in finance reporting, yet they took a chance on me. In meetings I usually contributed last, after I had heard everyone elses suggestions.I did it to show that I was a listener, but also to hide my fears. They liked the person who walked into the interview, and they didnt respect me when I hid that person from them. “Dont leave before you leave.” That advice is essential for women at all stages of our careers. Because we work so hard for success, we dont like to think that we hurt ourselves sometimes. But each of us must change when necessary. In trying to earn a fulltime job, I “l(fā)eaned back” in order not to show too much of myself or my lack of expertise(專門知識(shí)). I learned that the hard way wasnt the way to achieve our goals.【文章大意】本文是一篇夾敘夾議文?！拔摇痹诠竟ぷ?，在團(tuán)隊(duì)里，“我”辛苦勤奮，所在的團(tuán)隊(duì)也緊張忙碌，但是“我”害怕表達(dá)自己的主張和建議。老板在肯定了“我”的成績的同時(shí)，建議“我”勇于表達(dá)自己的主張，分享個(gè)人的建議?！倦y句分析】The small team I worked with often seemed busy，so rather than giving ideas that might get turned down，I stayed back.(第二段最后一句)分析：這是一個(gè)復(fù)合句。句中I worked with為省略了關(guān)系詞的定語從句，修飾先行詞The small team；句中that might get turned down為that引導(dǎo)的定語從句，修飾先行詞ideas。譯文：我工作所在的小團(tuán)隊(duì)常?？雌饋砗苊β?，所以我沒有把那些可能遭到拒絕的想法表達(dá)出來，而是退到后面。1Why was the author offered a job at the pany at first?AShe just got her masters degree in finance.BShe greatly impressed her boss in her first month.CShe had quite a lot of experience in finance reporting.DShe showed her special financial talent while working there.答案與解析：B考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段第三句“I got a great onemonth review and my boss asked if I was interested in staying at the pany after graduation.”可知，在第一個(gè)月的工作中，“我”獲得了很高的評(píng)價(jià)，給老板留下了深刻的印象，故老板決定聘用“我”。故B項(xiàng)正確。2During her next four months at the pany, the author _.Aperformed well enough to earn the teams respectBdidnt balance her graduate studies with work very wellCwas a good listener and contributed a lot in the meetingsDwas afraid to offer her ideas because of her lack of confidence答案與解析：D考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段第四句“The small team I worked with often seemed busy, so rather than giving ideas that might get turned down，I stayed back.”，并結(jié)合第四段倒數(shù)第二句“I did it to show that I was a listener，but also to hide my fears”可知，“我”工作所在的團(tuán)隊(duì)常?？雌饋砗苊β?，“我”擔(dān)心自己的建議或想法遭到拒絕，所以只愿做一個(gè)傾聽者。據(jù)此可知，由于缺乏自信，“我”害怕表達(dá)自己的想法，故D項(xiàng)正確。3What does the author intend to tell us in the passage?AWe should always keep up our enthusiasm at work.BExpertise and experience are greatly valued in the workplace.CWe should not shy away from sharing our ideas when working in a team.DIts unwise of women to show themselves off when they are taking part in teamwork.答案與解析：C考查目的意圖。文章第二段描述了“我”辛苦勤奮，所在的團(tuán)隊(duì)緊張忙碌，第三、四段講述老板對(duì)“我”工作的評(píng)價(jià)：雖然辛苦努力，但是“我”缺乏在團(tuán)隊(duì)中建言獻(xiàn)策的自信和勇氣，并不能贏得團(tuán)隊(duì)的尊敬。據(jù)此可以判斷，本文旨在告訴讀者在團(tuán)隊(duì)工作中不要畏避表達(dá)自己的觀點(diǎn)，故C項(xiàng)正確。BFidel Castro was born at his fathers farm on August 13, 1926.
