题目

Some prominent businesswomen believe they are being asked to disclose more about their personal lives as they climb the career ladder than their male counterparts (对应的人或事). One seemingly innocent but frequently asked question illustrates the keen interest in the balance that women have to achieve between their professional and private lives – "how do you make it work?" Campaigners say that this question would hardly ever be put to a man and that it implicitly raises doubts over women's commitment to their professional lives.Similarly, in a recent interview, one female chief executive declined to answer questions about her home life, saying her own achievements might then be attributed to having a supportive husband and family – or to being single or childless. Deborah Meaden, the entrepreneur (企业家) whose profile rose dramatically when she began appearing on a BBC's popular television show, has developed strict boundaries around the parts of her life that she will and will not discuss. "I was fairly nervous about mentioning anything at the start, but I am clear now about what I will and won't talk about," she explains. "You will never see a picture of my home, but there are stories that I have decided I don't mind talking about – like the fact that I keep pigs and sheep. Who my friends are and what I do in my private life is not public information," she says.But she believes that the scale of interest in her personal life is the result of her media career, as much as her gender. "There are more men in business and so it's a fact that if you are a woman you are a rarity and therefore you will attract more interest. And there is interest in how your life works because the traditional form is that women look after the family. But a lot of business people go about their life without anyone being interested in their home life."(1) (单选题)What does the question "how do you make it work?" mean to successful women?A.People have more interest in their professional life.B.People are doubtful over women's commitment to their professional lives.C.People want to know more about their personal lives.D.people are curious about how women could be more successful than their male counterparts.(2) (单选题)What can you learn from the story of Deborah Meaden?A.She was always worried about her personal life.B.She will never talk about her private life publicly.C.She will tell her stories about how to keep pigs and sheep.D.She will disclose who her friends are and what she does after work.(3) (单选题)Why was Deborah Meaden attracting so much interest?A.Because she is a prominent woman appearing on a popular television show.B.ecause she is having a supportive husband and family.C.Because she has no children.D.Because she always developed strict boundaries around the parts of her life.(4) (单选题)What can be inferred from the text?A.People have more interest in businessmen's home life.B.People have gender-related prejudice against women's success in career.C.People are curious about women's marriage and family.D.People assume that women should not ignore their commitment to family.(5) (单选题)The author's tone in this passage is ____________.A.objectiveB.doubtfulC.criticalD.surprised

题目解答

答案

1、B2、B3、A4、B5、A

解析

整体考察内容

本文讨论职业女性面临的个人生活被过度关注的问题,通过具体案例(如女性首席执行官、Deborah Meaden)说明性别差异导致的不平等对待,并分析背后的社会偏见。题目涉及细节理解、推理判断和作者态度分析。

各题详解

第1题

题目:问题“how do you make it work?”对成功女性意味着什么?
关键句:“this question would hardly ever be put to a man and that it implicitly raises doubts over women's commitment to their professional lives”(这个问题几乎不会问男性,隐含着对女性职业投入的怀疑)。
选项分析:

  • A. 对职业生活更感兴趣(与文意相反,问题关注的是私人与职业的平衡,而非职业本身);
  • B. 对女性职业投入存疑(直接对应关键句);
  • C. 想了解个人生活(问题隐含的是对职业投入的怀疑,而非直接想了解个人生活);
  • D. 好奇女性如何比男性更成功(无依据)。
    答案:B

第2题

题目:从Deborah Meaden的故事能学到什么?
关键句:“You will never see a picture of my home, but there are stories that I have decided I don't mind talking about – like the fact that I keep pigs and sheep. Who my friends are and what I do in my private life is not public information”(你永远看不到我家的照片,但有些故事我不介意谈——比如我养牛羊;我的朋友是谁、私人生活做什么不是公开信息)。
选项分析:

  • A. 总是担心个人生活(“fairly nervous at the start”是最初,并非“always”);
  • B. 从不公开谈论私人生活(“who my friends are and what I do in my private life is not public information”直接对应);
  • C. 会讲养牛羊的故事(文中说“don't mind talking about”,但选项“will tell”表述绝对,且非题干重点);
  • D. 会披露朋友和下班后的事(与“not public information”矛盾)。
    答案:B

第3题

题目:Deborah Meaden为何吸引如此多关注?
关键句:“the scale of interest in her personal life is the result of her media career, as much as her gender… if you are a woman you are a rarity and therefore you will attract more interest”(对她个人生活的关注源于媒体事业和性别——女性在商界是少数,因此吸引更多兴趣)。
选项分析:

  • A. 作为杰出女性出现在热门电视节目(“profile rose dramatically when she began appearing on a BBC's popular television show”,媒体曝光是原因之一,且“prominent woman”符合“rarity”);
  • B. 有支持的丈夫和家庭(她“declined to answer questions about her home life”,未提及丈夫支持是原因);
  • C. 没有孩子(无依据);
  • D. 严格设定生活界限(这是她的应对方式,而非吸引关注的原因)。
    答案:A

第4题

题目:从文本能推断出什么?
核心观点:女性比男性更被要求披露个人生活,问题“how do you make it work?”隐含对职业投入的怀疑,传统观念认为女性应照顾家庭。
选项分析:

  • A. 对商人家庭生活更感兴趣(文中说“a lot of business people go about their life without anyone being interested”,矛盾);
  • B. 对女性职业成功存在性别偏见(全文核心:女性因性别被过度关注个人生活,隐含对职业投入的怀疑,属于性别偏见);
  • C. 好奇女性婚姻家庭(片面,不仅是好奇,更是隐含偏见);
  • D. 认为女性不应忽视家庭责任(文中“traditional form is that women look after the family”是背景,而非推断出的结论,且非题干重点)。
    答案:B

第5题

题目:作者的语气是?
行文特点:作者客观陈述现象(引用女性高管、Deborah Meaden的观点),分析原因(性别、媒体),未发表主观评价(如“should”“must”),仅呈现事实。
选项分析:

  • A. 客观(符合);
  • B. 怀疑(无怀疑态度);
  • C. 批评(未批评任何人);
  • D. 惊讶(无惊讶表述)。
    答案:A

  • The increase in international business and in foreign investment has created a need for executives with knowledge of foreign languages and skills in cross-cultural communication. Americans, however, have not been well trained in either area and, consequently, have not enjoyed the same level of success in negotiation in an international arena as have their foreign counterparts. Negotiating is the process of communicating back and forth for the purpose of reaching an agreement. It involves persuasion and compromise, but in order to participate in either one, the negotiators must understand the ways in which people are persuaded and how compromise is reached within the culture of the negotiation. In many international business negotiations abroad, Americans are perceived as wealthy and impersonal. It often appears to the foreign negotiator that the American represents a large multi-million-dollar corporation that can afford to pay the price without bargaining further. The American negotiator’s role becomes that of an impersonal supplier of information and cash. In studies of American negotiators abroad, several traits have been identified that may serve to confirm this stereotypical perception, while undermining the negotiator’s position. Two traits in particular that cause cross-cultural misunderstanding are directness and impatience on the part of the American negotiator. Furthermore, American negotiators often insist on realizing short-term goals. Foreign negotiators, on the other hand, may value the relationship established between negotiators and may be willing to invest time in it for long-term benefits. In order to solidify the relationship, they may opt for indirect interactions without regard for the time involved in getting to know the other negotiator. Clearly, perceptions and differences in values affect the outcomes of negotiations and the success of negotiators. For Americans to play a more effective role in international business negotiations, they must put forth more effort to improve cross-cultural understanding.

  • question or statement.Hot pot is a traditional dish in China. It is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of the Jin Dynasty. Hot pot's origins can be found in the dining practices of Mongolian horsemen who rode across the steppe and into northern China. Legend has it that the Mongols used their helmets as pots to simmer (炖) broth (汤底) over open fires, and cooked chunks of meat in the broth.Hot pot cooking seems to have spread to northern China during the Tang Dynasty. In the regional variations developed with different ingredients such as seafood. In the centuries that witnessed the growth of the Song Dynasty, hot pot moved — and changed — further south, with each successive region adapting it to their local ingredients and tastes.The ingredients in a hot pot vary a lot from region to region. Perhaps the most famous hot pot is the Chongqing or Sichuan hot pot. It features a dark red broth chock-full (塞满了的) of spices, chili peppers, and the uniquely mouth-numbing Sichuan peppers. In Beijing and elsewhere in the north, hot pot broth tends to be mild and, compared to its racy southern "cousins", a little light. In the northeast of China, a kind of local sauerkraut (酸菜) is used to add some tang (强烈的味道), making the broth a bit sour. People can choose a version of hot pot according to their taste.1 Hot pot is believed to date back more than 1,000 years to the time of _______.A. the Jin Dynasty B. the Tang DynastyC. the Song Dynasty D. the Yuan Dynasty

  • The Harry Potter series, written by J.K. Rowling, is perhaps the most popular set of novels of the modern era. With seven books and many successful films to its name, the series has gathered about 15 billion dollars in sales. How did the series become so popular? The reason can be broken down into several areas.The first book in the series was rejected 12 times before it was picked up by Bloomsbury—a small publisher in England. So receiving this contract was Rowling's first step to success. However, getting a book contract does not ensure the success of a book. The story was soon loved by children and adults alike. In light of this, Bloomsbury Publishing published a second version of the books with “adult” (less colorful and more boring) book covers. This made it easier for a full range of ages to enjoy the series.Another factor that worked like a charm was that the publisher and Rowling herself, through the books, conducted midnight releases, promotions, and pre-ordering more readers. Customers who feared that their local bookstore would run out of copies responded by pre-ordering over 700,000 copies before the July 8, 2000 release.What does the underlined word “releases” (Para. 3) mean?A. The activity that frees or expresses energy or emotion.B. The announcement about the book’s publishing information.C. The sales of books that is available only at midnight.
