　　【答案】B

　　【解析】

　　考查省略和非谓语动词。句意：当面对危险和冲突时，人们往往血压升高，感到紧张或焦虑。be exposed to 暴露，句子的主语是 men，故可省略 men are；主语 men 与 feel 之间是主谓关系，故用现在分词形式。

　　A．Completing

　　B．Complete

　　C．Completed

　　D．To complete

　　【答案】D

　　【解析】

　　A．conserving

　　B．to be conserved

　　C．having conserved D．being conserved

　　D． Not having saved

　　【答案】D

　　【解析】

　　The model for Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa is believed ____ in the convent（修道院）at the age of 63 in1542.

　　A． to die

　　B． to have died

　　C. dying

　　D． having died

　　【答案】B

　　Barbara often makes a schedule to get herself ____ of what she is to do in the day.

　　A．remind B．to remind C．reminded D．reminding

　　【答案】C

　　【解析】

　　A．to have stolen; promising B．stealing; promised

　　C．to stealing; promised D．having stolen; promising

　　____Joseph off at the airport, Sally finished her work earlier.

　　A．Having seen B．Seen C．To see D．To be seen

　　【答案】C

　　【解析】

　　考查非谓语动词。根据题干的后半句话可知，前半句话表示目的，即 Sally 早早地结束工作是为了到机场给 Joseph 送行，因此应选动词不定式。

　　Lady Gaga has put off her concerts because of the difficulties ____ by the ongoing strikes.

　　A．causing B．to cause C．to be caused D．caused

　　【答案】D

　　【解析】

　　考查非谓语动词。根据题意可知，cause 和 difficulties 是动宾关系，因此用 cause 的过去分词形式。过去分词短语 caused by the ongoing strikes 在句中作定语，修饰 difficulties。

　　____ at the party, we saw Ruth standing alone in the corner of the hall.

　　A．Arriving B．To arrive C．Arrive D．Arrived

　　【答案】A

　　【解析】

　　考查非谓语动词。句子的主语 we 和 arrive 之间为主谓关系，故用 arrive 的现在分词形式。现在分词短语 Arriving at the party 在这里作时间状语。句意：到了宴会上，我看到 Ruth 一个人站在大厅的一角。

　　Earth is believed ____ by an object the size of Mars at some point in the distant past before its surface cooled.

　　A．to be hit

　　B．to have hit

　　C．to have been hit D．to hit

　　【答案】C

　　With temperature ____ so rapidly, we could not go with the experiment.

　　A．fall B．falling C．fallen D．to fall

　　【答案】B

　　【解析】

　　考查非谓语动词。句意：由于温度急剧下降，我们无法继续试验。空处所在的分句是介词 with 的复合结构，temperature 与 fall 之间是主动关系，故用动词的现在分词形式。

　　A．to work

　　B．to be working

　　C．to have worked

　　D．to have been working

　　【答案】C

　　【解析】

　　第三部分：阅读理解

　　A different sort of generation gap is developing in the workplace. Someone — specifically the father-daughter team of Larry and Meagan Johnson — has figured out that on some American job sites, five generations are working side by side.

　　In their new book about generations in the workplace the pair argue that while such an age difference adds a lot of texture and a variety of life experiences, it can also bring tensions and conflicts.

　　The Johnsons are human-resource trainers and pubic speakers. Dad Larry is a former health-care executive; daughter Meagan is a onetime high-level sales manager.

　　Here are the oldest and youngest of the five generations they identify:

　　They call the oldest group Traditionals, born before 1945．They were heavily influenced by the lessons of the Great Depression and World War Ⅱ. They respect authority, set a high standard of workmanship, and communicate easily and confidently. But they’re also stubbornly independent. They want their opinions heard.

　　At the other extreme are what the Johnsons call Linksters, born after 1995 into today’s more complicated, multimedia world. They live and breathe technology and are often social activists.

　　You won’t find many l5-year olds in the offices of large companies, except as volunteers, of course, but quite old and quite young workers do come together in sales environments like bike shops and ice cream stores.

　　The Johnsons, Larry and Meagan, represent a generation gap themselves in their work with jobsite issues. The Johnsons’ point is that as the average lifespan continues to rise and retirement dates get delayed because of the tight economy, people of different generations are working side by side, more often bringing with them very different ideas about company loyalty and work values

　　The five generations are heavily influenced by quite different events, social trends, and the cultural phenomena of their times. Their experiences shape their behavior and make it difficult, sometimes, for managers to achieve a strong and efficient workplace.

　　Larry and Meagan Johnson discuss all this in greater detail in a new book, "Generations, Inc．: From Boomers to Linksters — Managing the Friction Between Generations at Work, "published by Amacom Press, which is available in all good bookstores from this Friday.

　　36．The type of generation gap in Paragraph 1 refers to the difference in beliefs ____.

　　A．between managers and workers

　　B．among family members

　　C．among employees

　　D．between older and newer companies

　　37．Which of the following statements is NOT true about Traditionals?

　　A．They’ve learned much from war and economic disaster.

　　B．They’re difficult to work with as they are stubborn.

　　C．They respect their boss and hope to be respected.

　　D．They’re independent workers with great confidence.

　　38．According to the passage, the Linksters are usually ____.

　　A．found working in the offices of large companies

　　B．influenced by multimedia and technology

　　C．enthusiastic multimedia activists

　　D．ice cream sellers

　　39．According to the passage, modern workforces are more diverse because ____.

　　A．people want to increase their average lifespan

　　B．many young people are entering the workforce

　　C．employees with different values can benefit their companies

　　D．retirement dates are being delayed for economic reasons

　　40．What’s the main purpose of the passage?

　　A．To promote a new book by Larry and Meagan Johnson.

　　B．To describe the five different workplace generations.

　　C．To introduce the Johnsons’ research about diverse workforces.

　　D．To identify a major problem in modern workforces.

　　【解题导语】

　　本文通过介绍一对父女出版的新书向我们解释了现代社会出现的一种新现象：不同的几代人可能在同一个公司上班，而他们之间的这种“代沟”导致了他们在工作时观点不一……

　　36．C

　　推理判断题。根据文章第一段第一句话中的in the workplace 和该段最后一句话中的 five generations are working side by side，可知文章中讨论的 generation gap 是有关在同一公司上班的员工之间的不同观念。因此C项正确。37．B

　　细节理解题。根据文章第五段内容可知，所谓的Traditionals 是指1945年以前出生的人。根据这一段有关这类人的描述可知，A、C、D三项都是正确的，只有B项与原文内容不符。

　　38．B

　　细节理解题。根据第六段内容可知B项正确。

　　39．D

　　细节理解题。根据文章倒数第三段最后一句话可知D项正确，即由于经济的原因，退休年龄推迟，进而导致不同时代的人在一起上班。

　　40．A

　　写作目的题。文章最后一段的大意是：Larry 和 Meagan Johnson 在他们的新书里仔细讨论了这个问题，由 Amacom 出版社出版，从本周五在所有书店里都能买到。由这段的内容可知，本文的写作目的是介绍一本新书。另外，第二段中的 In their new book about generations 也是答案提示。由此可知，A项正确。
