An emphasis on learning has long been a hallmark of United Technologies Corporation (UTC).Since 1996, UTC has been running a programme under which its employees can take part-time degrees and have part of tuition fees paid for them, no strings attached.Employers are often unwilling to train staff because they might leave for competitors, taking their expensively gained skills with them.But Gail Jackson, the firm’s vice-president, takes a different view.“It is better to train and have them leave than not to train and have them stay,” she says. Such attitudes are becoming more common.When Satya Nadella took over as boss of Microsoft, he drew on the work of Carol Dweck, a psychology professor, to push the firm’s culture in a new direction.Ms Dweck divides students into two camps: those who think that abilities are innate (天生的) and fixed (reducing motivation to learn) and those who believe that abilities can be improved through learning.This “growth mindset” is what the firm is trying to encourage.It has improved its performance-review criteria to include an evaluation of how employees have learned from others and then applied that knowledge. AT & T, a telecoms and media firm with around 300,000 employees, faces two big workforce problems: rapidly changing skill requirements in an era of big data and cloud computing, and constant labour turnover that leaves the company having to fill 50,000 jobs a year.Recruiting from outside is difficult and expensive.The firm’s answer is an ambitious plan to reskill its own people.The firm has developed short courses, and employees can work in their own time to learn new skills.1.Why is Eric Schmidt mentioned in Paragraph 1?( )A.To stress the importance of learning technology.B.To prove skills requirements are rapidly changing.C.To illustrate companies regard learning as a core skill.D.To compare the hiring philosophies of Alphabet and Google.2.What does the underlined part “Such attitudes” in Paragraph 3 refer to?( )A.Companies should invest in employee training.B.Companies should keep an eye on their competitors.C.Companies should work hard to make their talents stay.D.Companies should hire people holding an advanced degree.3.What did Satya Nadella do when he became Microsoft’s CEO?( )A.He divided the employees into two camps.B.He set a new direction for business growth.C.He included Carol Dweck into his management team.D.He promoted a learning culture within the organization.4.What is AT & T’s response to its workforce problems?( )A.Increasing the salary of most employees.B.Training existing staff to learn new skills.C.Extending the working time of the employees.D.Hiring new employees with reliable technical skills.B Agostino Ramelli, the 16th-century Italian military engineer, designed many devices for the changing Renaissance (文藝復(fù)興時(shí)期) landscape.His most eye-catching machine was one meant to develop the mind: a revolving (旋轉(zhuǎn)的) wooden wheel with angled shelves, which allowed users to read multiple books at one time.“This is a beautiful and well-designed machine, very useful and convenient for anyone who takes pleasure in study,” Ramelli wrote in Le diverse et artificiose machine, his illustrated masterpiece of mechanical solutions. Ramelli never ended up building this device, but the book wheel has long attracted those who study the history of the book.In 2018, a group of undergraduate engineering students at Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) set out to build two.They began by seriously studying the Italian engineer’s illustration and then obtained historically accurate materials.With the help of modern power tools and processes, they brought it to life.Today, one wheel is at the Melbert B.Cary, Jr.Graphic Arts Collection at RIT’s Wallace Library, and the other at the University of Rochester’s Rossell Hope Robbins Library. Simpler book wheels did exist before Ramelli’s.Readers in the late medieval period could sit by a machine, which turned open books in a circle along a horizontal plane (水平面), like a Lazy Susan.Steven Galbraith, who is in charge of the Cary Collection, says that the Italian engineer was trying to improve this design and meet an increasing need to cross-reference books, which were often larger and heavier.Through the 16th century, books were beginning to talk to each other a lot more — one might reference another — so a book wheel could have been convenient. The Cary Collection’s wheel can be used for individual reading research, but it is also often used as a teaching tool. In Russia, the Museum of Languages of the World built its own version as well.5.What can be learned about Ramelli?( )A.He had an active and creative mind.B.He built a wheel for people to read books.C.He contributed a lot to Renaissance literature.D.He finished Le diverse et artificiose machine at RIT.6.What is stressed in the second paragraph?( )A.Ramelli’s illustration.B.Modern power tools and processes.C.The book wheels made by some students.D.The improvements made to Ramelli’s wheel.7.What does Galbraith say about Ramelli’s wheel?( )A.It was tailored for quick reference.B.It was simpler than previous designs.C.It was usually used on a horizontal plane.D.It was popular in the early medieval period.8.What is the author’s main purpose in writing the text?( )A.To discuss. B.To persuade.C.To entertain. D.To report.Ⅱ.閱讀七選五 With about a billion English language learners from all over the globe, English is the most popular second language worldwide.But achieving fluency in English doesn’t come without its fair share of difficulties.9.( ) Mixing up closely related adjectives. English has many adjectives that are similar in both meaning and form, such as bored/boring and interested/interesting.10.( ) Thus, it’s easy for English learners to accidentally use the wrong one. Forgetting about gender-specific pronouns. In many languages, object pronouns (e.g.him and her) and possessive pronouns (e.g.his and hers) are the same.11.( ) Therefore, remembering that these pronouns in English take on genders can be demanding for some students. Forming questions in the wrong word order. In many languages, you can simply stick a question mark at the end of a sentence, and your statement becomes a question.12.( ) Specifically, the statement “You are going to the store” becomes “Are you going to the store?” when it’s framed (表達(dá)) as a question.This is easy to forget, so learners often create ill-formed questions like “You are going to the store?” Not knowing when to use the right article. The English language contains 3 articles:“the”“an”and“a”.They come before nouns and confuse learners.As any English teacher knows, it’s extremely difficult to explain the precise rules regarding when to use “the” or “a” — and there are plenty of exceptions.13.( ) To sum up, there are a lot of places to go wrong when learning English! However, don’t let this discourage you — as with any language, practice makes perfect.A.These pairs vary by only a couple of letters.B.A special feature of English is that all sentences need a subject.C.In English, however, asking a question often requires a change in word order.D.This is especially hard for learners whose native language doesn’t have articles.E.Below are some of the most common mistakes made by English language learners.F.For instance, in Spanish, “his book” and “her book” are both translated as “su libro”.G.Here are some of the reasons why so many people are learning the English language.Section Ⅰ Welcome to the unit & Reading基礎(chǔ)知識(shí)自測(cè)維度一1.refreshed 2.self-worth 3.educator 4.composition5.blank 6.registered 7.concrete 8.abstract 9.objective10.ceased維度二1.Assuming 2.resolution 3.registration 4.compositions5.subscription 6.criticism 7.inquiry 8.comprehension維度三1.subscribe to an English newspaper2.The problem to be discussed at the next meeting3.It was last summer that4.make all the kids happy5.so that he could buy his mother a present6.where I stayed for three years維度四1.it 2.changing 3.to 4.experiences 5.to grow 6.an 7.and 8.simply 9.what 10.be applied素養(yǎng)能力提升Ⅰ.語(yǔ)篇解讀:本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章介紹了企業(yè)越來(lái)越重視員工的學(xué)習(xí)能力的現(xiàn)象。1.C 目的意圖題。根據(jù)第一段內(nèi)容可知,就尋找、保住工作而言,有一項(xiàng)技能變得越來(lái)越重要,即學(xué)習(xí)能力。Eric Schmidt曾談到谷歌的招聘重點(diǎn)是尋找“學(xué)習(xí)型動(dòng)物”,即能夠主動(dòng)學(xué)習(xí)的人。作者通過(guò)介紹谷歌的招聘理念,舉例說(shuō)明了企業(yè)認(rèn)為學(xué)習(xí)能力是一項(xiàng)重要的技能。2.A 詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)第二段最后三句可知,很多雇主通常都不愿意培訓(xùn)員工,因?yàn)檫@些員工在接受了昂貴的培訓(xùn)且獲得技能后,可能會(huì)跳槽到競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手處。但Gail Jackson持有不同的觀點(diǎn),她曾說(shuō):“與其不培訓(xùn)員工并把他們留在公司,還不如讓員工接受培訓(xùn)后再離開(kāi)。”由此可推知,“這種態(tài)度”是指企業(yè)應(yīng)該在員工培訓(xùn)方面作出投資。3.D 推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段內(nèi)容可知,Satya Nadella在接任微軟總裁時(shí),為公司文化制定了一個(gè)新方向。他借鑒了一位心理學(xué)教授的觀點(diǎn),改進(jìn)了其績(jī)效評(píng)估標(biāo)準(zhǔn),包括評(píng)估員工是如何向他人學(xué)習(xí)并應(yīng)用所學(xué)知識(shí)的。由此可推知,Satya Nadella上任后,在企業(yè)內(nèi)推廣了一種學(xué)習(xí)型文化。4.B 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段內(nèi)容可知,AT & T面臨著兩大勞動(dòng)力問(wèn)題,該公司的應(yīng)對(duì)措施是一項(xiàng)宏偉的計(jì)劃:重新培訓(xùn)自己的員工。該公司開(kāi)發(fā)了一些短期課程,員工能利用自己的時(shí)間來(lái)學(xué)習(xí)新技能。由此可知,AT & T的應(yīng)對(duì)方法是培訓(xùn)現(xiàn)有員工學(xué)習(xí)新技能。語(yǔ)篇解讀:本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。十六世紀(jì)意大利工程師Agostino Ramelli設(shè)計(jì)的一個(gè)復(fù)雜而奇妙的裝置——書(shū)輪,現(xiàn)如今由來(lái)自羅徹斯特理工大學(xué)的學(xué)生們將其變?yōu)榱爽F(xiàn)實(shí)。5.A 推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段第一句可知,Ramelli設(shè)計(jì)了很多精巧的裝置。由此可推知,他頭腦活躍,富有創(chuàng)造力。6.C 段落大意題。第二段主要講述了一群來(lái)自羅徹斯特理工大學(xué)的學(xué)生將Ramelli描述的書(shū)輪變?yōu)楝F(xiàn)實(shí)。7.A 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段第三句可知,Galbraith認(rèn)為Ramelli是為了當(dāng)時(shí)要相互參照書(shū)籍的需求而量身打造的書(shū)輪。本段中的Lazy Susan意為“餐桌轉(zhuǎn)盤”。8.D 寫作目的題。本文主要講述了羅徹斯特理工大學(xué)的學(xué)生們將意大利工程師Ramelli設(shè)計(jì)的書(shū)輪變?yōu)楝F(xiàn)實(shí)這一故事。Ⅱ.語(yǔ)篇解讀:本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章介紹了英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)者最常犯的幾個(gè)錯(cuò)誤。9.E 上文說(shuō)明了全球大約有十億英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)者,但是要流利地使用英語(yǔ)并非易事。根據(jù)下文四個(gè)小標(biāo)題可知,E項(xiàng)(下面是英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)者最常犯的一些錯(cuò)誤)符合語(yǔ)境。10.A 空前一句指出:在英語(yǔ)中,很多形容詞在意思和形式上都很相似,比如bored/boring和interested/interesting。下文指出結(jié)果,英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)者一不小心就會(huì)用錯(cuò)。A項(xiàng)(這幾對(duì)詞語(yǔ)僅相差幾個(gè)字母)符合語(yǔ)境,與下文構(gòu)成因果關(guān)系。A項(xiàng)中的These pairs指代設(shè)空處前一句中列舉的兩對(duì)形容詞。11.F 空前一句指出:在許多語(yǔ)言中,賓格代詞(例如him和her)和物主代詞(例如his和hers)是相同的。F項(xiàng)以西班牙語(yǔ)進(jìn)行舉例說(shuō)明,符合語(yǔ)境。F項(xiàng)中的both translated as “su libro”與設(shè)空處前一句中的the same相呼應(yīng)。12.C 上文指出:在許多語(yǔ)言中,你只需要在句子末尾加一個(gè)問(wèn)號(hào),就能把陳述句變成疑問(wèn)句。C項(xiàng)(但在英語(yǔ)中,要想構(gòu)成疑問(wèn)句,通常需要改變?cè)~序)符合語(yǔ)境,與上文構(gòu)成轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。C項(xiàng)中的word order與小標(biāo)題中的word order構(gòu)成原詞復(fù)現(xiàn)。13.D 上文說(shuō)明了英語(yǔ)中有三個(gè)冠詞:“the”“an”和“a”,英語(yǔ)老師都清楚的一點(diǎn)是,很難解釋清楚冠詞使用的準(zhǔn)確規(guī)則,況且還有很多特殊用法。D項(xiàng)(對(duì)于母語(yǔ)中沒(méi)有冠詞的學(xué)習(xí)者來(lái)說(shuō),這點(diǎn)尤其困難)符合語(yǔ)境。D項(xiàng)中的articles與小標(biāo)題中的article和上文中的articles構(gòu)成原詞復(fù)現(xiàn)。4 / 5Section Ⅰ Welcome to the unit & ReadingLearning for life [1]The more I learn, the better I know how much there is still left to learn.[2]As I journey through my life, I have become aware that acquiring knowledge is not only a means by which you can better understand the world, but also a way of appreciating how much, as an individual, you do not know. The ability to admit this should not be perceived as① a weakness, but as a strength.[3]I once had an art teacher, pointing out that it is not only what you can see that is important, but also what you cannot see.[4]When I drew a still life②, it was impressed upon me that the blank③ spaces between the objects were just as vital to the success of the composition④as the actual objects themselves.Also, as the great educator⑤ Confucius⑥stated, “When you know a thing, to recognize that you know it; and when you do not know a thing, to recognize that you do not know it—that is wisdom.” [1]本句為“the+比較級(jí) ...,the+比較級(jí) ...”結(jié)構(gòu), 表示“越……,就越……”。 [2]As引導(dǎo)時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句,意為“當(dāng)……的時(shí)候;隨著”; not only ...but also ...連接并列表語(yǔ);“介詞by+關(guān)系代詞which”引導(dǎo)定語(yǔ)從句,修飾先行詞a means;that和how much分別引導(dǎo)一個(gè)賓語(yǔ)從句。 [3]動(dòng)詞-ing形式pointing out that ...what you cannot see作定語(yǔ),修飾teacher; that引導(dǎo)的賓語(yǔ)從句使用了強(qiáng)調(diào)句,強(qiáng)調(diào)主語(yǔ)what you can see;not only ...but also ...連接兩個(gè)并列的what引導(dǎo)的主語(yǔ)從句。 [4]it作形式主語(yǔ),真正的主語(yǔ)是that引導(dǎo)的主語(yǔ)從句。“as ...as ...”結(jié)構(gòu),意為“和……一樣”。 It is vital to remain lifelong learners in a rapidly changing world.As you progress through life, you may study and work in new environments.Consequently, you will be exposed to⑦ many new ideas, beliefs, practices and learning experiences.Furthermore⑧, the production of knowledge is bound to⑨ grow rapidly.[5]New knowledge is constantly being generated⑩ and what you already know is being revised all the time , to the extent that it can be difficult to keep pace with the latest developments.[6]Indeed, you may one day do jobs that do not yet exist, use technologies that are not yet developed and resolve problems that are not yet problems![7]This is not to suggest that there is no need for you to study in school but to acknowledge that refreshing your knowledge through lifelong learning is both essential and beneficial. [5]what引導(dǎo)主語(yǔ)從句;to the extent that意為“達(dá)到這種程度以至于……”。 [6]句中三個(gè)并列結(jié)構(gòu)do jobs、use technologies、resolve problems后面都各自跟了一個(gè)that引導(dǎo)的定語(yǔ)從句。 [7]there is no need to do sth意為“沒(méi)必要做某事”;that引導(dǎo)一個(gè)賓語(yǔ)從句;refreshing your knowledge through lifelong learning為動(dòng)詞-ing短語(yǔ)作主語(yǔ)。 So, how can you proceed ?Firstly, lifelong learning is an attitude.Lifelong learners are those who have an open mind .Be objective and make yourself open to new knowledge and ideas.[8]Do not criticize them or reject them simply because they differ from what you know or believe.At the same time, you need to develop critical thinking skills so that you do not blindly accept new ideas.Instead, you should inquire further to assess the truth of what you are being told.[9]Secondly, take advantage of opportunities for lifelong learning—for example, you could register online and subscribe to e-learning courses, which have become increasingly popular in recent years.[10]You could also visit the local library, where resources are rich and diverse.[11]Finally, understand that it is not sufficient to simply know something or to understand what you know, because for knowledge to have concrete value, it must be applied.Importantly, after its application, there must then follow a review process of analysis, evaluation and improvement so that your comprehension of the world becomes a continuous process. [8]what引導(dǎo)賓語(yǔ)從句,作介詞from的賓語(yǔ)。 [9]which引導(dǎo)非限制性定語(yǔ)從句,修飾先行詞e-learning courses。 [10]where引導(dǎo)非限制性定語(yǔ)從句,修飾先行詞the local library。 [11]that引導(dǎo)的賓語(yǔ)從句中,it作形式主語(yǔ),真正的主語(yǔ)是or連接的兩個(gè)并列的動(dòng)詞不定式短語(yǔ)。what you know為what 引導(dǎo)的賓語(yǔ)從句,作 understand 的賓語(yǔ)。 In summary, in a world of constant change, one should never cease to learn.Lifelong learning will help you develop your skills and further your career, and will boost your sense of self-worth and keep your mind active.Therefore, know what you know and use it; know what you do not know and embrace it; know that you will never know all there is to know and wonder at it.【讀文清障】①be perceived as 被視為/理解為……②drew a still life 畫(huà)靜物③blank adj.空白的n.空白處,空格④composition n.構(gòu)圖;構(gòu)成,成分;作品;作曲藝術(shù)⑤educator n.教育家;教育工作者⑥Confucius n.孔子⑦be exposed to 接觸,面臨;暴露于,暴露在⑧furthermore adv.此外;而且;再者⑨be bound to 一定會(huì),很可能會(huì)bound adj.一定會(huì),很可能會(huì);有義務(wù)(做某事)⑩generate vt.產(chǎn)生;生成;引起 all the time 一直 to the extent 到……的程度 keep pace with sb/sth與……步調(diào)一致,與……并駕齊驅(qū) resolve vt.& vi.解決;表決;決心,決定n.決心,堅(jiān)定的信念 refresh vt.使變新;使恢復(fù)精力;使想起 lifelong learning 終身學(xué)習(xí) proceed vi.繼續(xù),接著做;行進(jìn);前往 have an open mind 有著開(kāi)放的胸懷,愿意聽(tīng)取(接受、考慮)別人的意見(jiàn)(想法) objective adj.客觀的;客觀存在的;賓格的n.目標(biāo),目的 criticize vt.& vi.批評(píng),批判,挑剔,指責(zé);評(píng)價(jià) differ from 與……不同 critical thinking 批判性思維 inquire vi.& vt.詢問(wèn),打聽(tīng) assess vt.評(píng)估;評(píng)定(性質(zhì)、質(zhì)量);估算;估定(數(shù)量、價(jià)值) take advantage of 利用…… register vi.& vt.登記,注冊(cè)n.語(yǔ)體風(fēng)格,語(yǔ)域;登記表 subscribe to 訂閱;定期訂購(gòu)(或訂閱等);同意,贊成subscribe vi.訂閱;定期訂購(gòu)(或訂閱等) concrete adj.確實(shí)的,具體的;有形的,實(shí)在的n.混凝土 comprehension n.理解力,領(lǐng)悟能力;理解練習(xí) cease vi.& vt.(使)停止,終止,結(jié)束 self-worth n.自我價(jià)值感【參考譯文】終身學(xué)習(xí) 我學(xué)得越多,就越明白要學(xué)的東西還很多。當(dāng)我走在人生的旅途中時(shí),我開(kāi)始領(lǐng)悟到,求知不光是讓你能更好地了解世界的一種手段,也是洞悉自己作為個(gè)體還有多少未知的一種方式。能承認(rèn)自己尚且無(wú)知不應(yīng)被認(rèn)為是一種缺點(diǎn),而應(yīng)是一種優(yōu)勢(shì)。我曾經(jīng)有過(guò)一位美術(shù)老師,他(她)向我指出,重要的不僅僅是你能看到的東西,你看不到的東西也很重要。當(dāng)我在畫(huà)靜物時(shí),我意識(shí)到,成功的構(gòu)圖中,物體之間的留白和實(shí)際的物體本身一樣關(guān)鍵。而且,正如偉大教育家孔子所言:“知之為知之,不知為不知,是知也。” 在一個(gè)瞬息萬(wàn)變的世界里,保持終身學(xué)習(xí)是極為重要的。當(dāng)你在人生旅途中前行時(shí),你可能會(huì)置身新環(huán)境中學(xué)習(xí)和工作。因此,你會(huì)接觸到許多新觀點(diǎn)、新信仰、新實(shí)踐和新的學(xué)習(xí)經(jīng)歷。此外,知識(shí)的產(chǎn)生必然是迅速增長(zhǎng)的。新的知識(shí)不斷涌現(xiàn)著,你已有的認(rèn)知一直在被修正,以至于難以跟上最新的發(fā)展。的確,可能有一天你會(huì)從事目前還不存在的職業(yè),使用現(xiàn)在還未開(kāi)發(fā)的技術(shù),解決當(dāng)下還不是問(wèn)題的問(wèn)題!這并不是說(shuō)學(xué)校教育對(duì)你來(lái)說(shuō)沒(méi)有必要,而是承認(rèn)通過(guò)終身學(xué)習(xí)來(lái)更新你的知識(shí)是必不可少且十分有益的。 那么,該如何做到呢?首先,終身學(xué)習(xí)是一種態(tài)度。終身學(xué)習(xí)者是那些有著開(kāi)放心態(tài)的人。客觀看待事物,讓自己接納新知識(shí)和新理念。不要僅僅因?yàn)樗鼈兣c自己的認(rèn)知或信念不同,就加以批評(píng)或拒斥。同時(shí),你需要培養(yǎng)批判性思考能力,以免對(duì)新觀點(diǎn)一味盲從。相反,當(dāng)你聽(tīng)到新的說(shuō)法時(shí),應(yīng)當(dāng)進(jìn)一步探究真相。其次,利用終身學(xué)習(xí)的機(jī)會(huì)——例如,你可以在線注冊(cè),訂閱在線學(xué)習(xí)課程,近年來(lái)這類課程越來(lái)越受歡迎。你也可以去本地的圖書(shū)館,那里有豐富多樣的資源。最后,要明白僅僅是知道某事或理解你所知道的知識(shí)是不夠的,因?yàn)橐屩R(shí)發(fā)揮實(shí)際價(jià)值,必須對(duì)其加以應(yīng)用。重要的是,將知識(shí)付諸實(shí)踐后,必須隨之跟進(jìn)一個(gè)分析、評(píng)估和改進(jìn)的回顧環(huán)節(jié),這樣你對(duì)世界的理解就是一個(gè)連續(xù)的過(guò)程了。 總之,在一個(gè)日新月異的世界里,一個(gè)人絕不能停止學(xué)習(xí)。終身學(xué)習(xí)會(huì)幫助你提升個(gè)人能力,推動(dòng)職業(yè)發(fā)展,也會(huì)幫助你增強(qiáng)自我價(jià)值感并保持思維活躍。因此,要知道自己知道什么并運(yùn)用所知;要知道自己不知道什么并接納未知;要知道人生有涯而知無(wú)涯,對(duì)未知抱有一顆探究之心。第一步:析架構(gòu),理文本脈絡(luò)Read the passage quickly and fill in the blanks with suitable words. 第二步:精讀文,達(dá)明察秋毫Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer.1.What is the author’s argument in this text?( )A.We should be critical of new ideas.B.We should be confident about ourselves.C.One ought to spend more time learning.D.One should keep learning throughout life.2.Why did the author quote Confucius’ saying in Paragraph 1?( )A.To show Confucius’ wide knowledge.B.To give us a general introduction of Confucius.C.To show he is in agreement with the famous figure.D.To suggest admitting what we don’t know.3.Why should we be lifelong learners in a rapidly changing world?( )①Life can be boring and dull without learning.②The production of knowledge is bound to grow rapidly.③It can be difficult to keep pace with the latest developments.④You will be exposed to many new ideas, beliefs, practices and learning experiences.A.①②④ B.①②③C.②③④ D.①③④4.Who is likely to become a lifelong learner?( )A.A man who is good at studying.B.A man who is objective and open-minded.C.A person who likes to make critical comments.D.A person who is unwilling to put what he learned into practice.5.What do lifelong learners need to do in order not to accept new ideas blindly?

An emphasis on learning has long been a hallmark of UnitedTechnologies Corporation (UTC).Since 1996, UTC has been runninga programme under which its employees can take part-time degrees andhave part of tuition fees paid for them, no strings attached.Employers areoften unwilling to train staff because they might leave for competitors,taking their expensively gained skills with them.But Gail Jackson, thefirm’s vice-president, takes a different view.“It is better to train andhave them leave than not to train and have them stay,” she says. Such attitudes are becoming more common.When Satya Nadella tookover as boss of Microsoft, he drew on the work of Carol Dweck, apsychology professor, to push the firm’s culture in a new direction.MsDweck divides students into two camps: those who think that abilities areinnate (天生的) and fixed (reducing motivation to learn) and thosewho believe that abilities can be improved through learning.This “growthmindset” is what the firm is trying to encourage.It has improved itsperformance-review criteria to include an evaluation of how employeeshave learned from others and then applied that knowledge. AT & T, a telecoms and media firm with around 300,000employees, faces two big workforce problems: rapidly changing skillrequirements in an era of big data and cloud computing, and constantlabour turnover that leaves the company having to fill 50,000 jobs ayear.Recruiting from outside is difficult and expensive.The firm’sanswer is an ambitious plan to reskill its own people.The firm hasdeveloped short courses, and employees can work in their own time tolearn new skills.語(yǔ)篇解讀:本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章介紹了企業(yè)越來(lái)越重視員工的學(xué)習(xí)能力的現(xiàn)象。語(yǔ)篇解讀:本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章介紹了企業(yè)越來(lái)越重視員工的學(xué)習(xí)能力的現(xiàn)象。1. Why is Eric Schmidt mentioned in Paragraph 1?( )A. To stress the importance of learning technology.B. To prove skills requirements are rapidly changing.C. To illustrate companies regard learning as a core skill.D. To compare the hiring philosophies of Alphabet and Google.解析: 目的意圖題。根據(jù)第一段內(nèi)容可知,就尋找、保住工作而言,有一項(xiàng)技能變得越來(lái)越重要,即學(xué)習(xí)能力。Eric Schmidt曾談到谷歌的招聘重點(diǎn)是尋找“學(xué)習(xí)型動(dòng)物”,即能夠主動(dòng)學(xué)習(xí)的人。作者通過(guò)介紹谷歌的招聘理念,舉例說(shuō)明了企業(yè)認(rèn)為學(xué)習(xí)能力是一項(xiàng)重要的技能。2. What does the underlined part “Such attitudes” in Paragraph 3 referto?( )A. Companies should invest in employee training.B. Companies should keep an eye on their competitors.C. Companies should work hard to make their talents stay.D. Companies should hire people holding an advanced degree.解析: 詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)第二段最后三句可知,很多雇主通常都不愿意培訓(xùn)員工,因?yàn)檫@些員工在接受了昂貴的培訓(xùn)且獲得技能后,可能會(huì)跳槽到競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手處。但Gail Jackson持有不同的觀點(diǎn),她曾說(shuō):“與其不培訓(xùn)員工并把他們留在公司,還不如讓員工接受培訓(xùn)后再離開(kāi)。”由此可推知,“這種態(tài)度”是指企業(yè)應(yīng)該在員工培訓(xùn)方面作出投資。3. What did Satya Nadella do when he became Microsoft’s CEO?( )A. He divided the employees into two camps.B. He set a new direction for business growth.C. He included Carol Dweck into his management team.D. He promoted a learning culture within the organization.解析: 推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段內(nèi)容可知,Satya Nadella在接任微軟總裁時(shí),為公司文化制定了一個(gè)新方向。他借鑒了一位心理學(xué)教授的觀點(diǎn),改進(jìn)了其績(jī)效評(píng)估標(biāo)準(zhǔn),包括評(píng)估員工是如何向他人學(xué)習(xí)并應(yīng)用所學(xué)知識(shí)的。由此可推知,Satya Nadella上任后,在企業(yè)內(nèi)推廣了一種學(xué)習(xí)型文化。4. What is AT & T’s response to its workforce problems?( )A. Increasing the salary of most employees.B. Training existing staff to learn new skills.C. Extending the working time of the employees.D. Hiring new employees with reliable technical skills.解析: 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段內(nèi)容可知,AT & T面臨著兩大勞動(dòng)力問(wèn)題,該公司的應(yīng)對(duì)措施是一項(xiàng)宏偉的計(jì)劃:重新培訓(xùn)自己的員工。該公司開(kāi)發(fā)了一些短期課程,員工能利用自己的時(shí)間來(lái)學(xué)習(xí)新技能。由此可知,AT & T的應(yīng)對(duì)方法是培訓(xùn)現(xiàn)有員工學(xué)習(xí)新技能。B Agostino Ramelli, the 16th-century Italian military engineer,designed many devices for the changing Renaissance (文藝復(fù)興時(shí)期)landscape.His most eye-catching machine was one meant to develop themind: a revolving (旋轉(zhuǎn)的) wooden wheel with angled shelves,which allowed users to read multiple books at one time.“This is abeautiful and well-designed machine, very useful and convenient foranyone who takes pleasure in study,” Ramelli wrote in Le diverse etartificiose machine, his illustrated masterpiece of mechanical solutions. Ramelli never ended up building this device, but the book wheel haslong attracted those who study the history of the book.In 2018, a groupof undergraduate engineering students at Rochester Institute of Technology(RIT) set out to build two.They began by seriously studying the Italianengineer’s illustration and then obtained historically accuratematerials.With the help of modern power tools and processes, theybrought it to life.Today, one wheel is at the Melbert B. Cary,Jr.Graphic Arts Collection at RIT’s Wallace Library, and the other atthe University of Rochester’s Rossell Hope Robbins Library. Simpler book wheels did exist before Ramelli’s.Readers in the latemedieval period could sit by a machine, which turned open books in acircle along a horizontal plane (水平面), like a Lazy Susan.StevenGalbraith, who is in charge of the Cary Collection, says that the Italianengineer was trying to improve this design and meet an increasing need tocross-reference books, which were often larger and heavier.Through the16th century, books were beginning to talk to each other a lot more —one might reference another — so a book wheel could have beenconvenient. The Cary Collection’s wheel can be used for individual readingresearch, but it is also often used as a teaching tool. In Russia, theMuseum of Languages of the World built its own version as well.語(yǔ)篇解讀:本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。十六世紀(jì)意大利工程師AgostinoRamelli設(shè)計(jì)的一個(gè)復(fù)雜而奇妙的裝置——書(shū)輪,現(xiàn)如今由來(lái)自羅徹斯特理工大學(xué)的學(xué)生們將其變?yōu)榱爽F(xiàn)實(shí)。語(yǔ)篇解讀:本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。十六世紀(jì)意大利工程師AgostinoRamelli設(shè)計(jì)的一個(gè)復(fù)雜而奇妙的裝置——書(shū)輪,現(xiàn)如今由來(lái)自羅徹斯特理工大學(xué)的學(xué)生們將其變?yōu)榱爽F(xiàn)實(shí)。5. What can be learned about Ramelli?( )A. He had an active and creative mind.B. He built a wheel for people to read books.C. He contributed a lot to Renaissance literature.D. He finished Le diverse et artificiose machine at RIT.解析: 推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段第一句可知,Ramelli設(shè)計(jì)了很多精巧的裝置。由此可推知,他頭腦活躍,富有創(chuàng)造力。6. What is stressed in the second paragraph?( )A. Ramelli’s illustration.B. Modern power tools and processes.C. The book wheels made by some students.D. The improvements made to Ramelli’s wheel.解析: 段落大意題。第二段主要講述了一群來(lái)自羅徹斯特理工大學(xué)的學(xué)生將Ramelli描述的書(shū)輪變?yōu)楝F(xiàn)實(shí)。7. What does Galbraith say about Ramelli’s wheel?( )A. It was tailored for quick reference.B. It was simpler than previous designs.C. It was usually used on a horizontal plane.D. It was popular in the early medieval period.解析: 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段第三句可知,Galbraith認(rèn)為Ramelli是為了當(dāng)時(shí)要相互參照書(shū)籍的需求而量身打造的書(shū)輪。本段中的Lazy Susan意為“餐桌轉(zhuǎn)盤”。8. What is the author’s main purpose in writing the text?( )A. To discuss. B. To persuade.C. To entertain. D. To report.解析: 寫作目的題。本文主要講述了羅徹斯特理工大學(xué)的學(xué)生們將意大利工程師Ramelli設(shè)計(jì)的書(shū)輪變?yōu)楝F(xiàn)實(shí)這一故事。Ⅱ.閱讀七選五 With about a billion English language learners from all over theglobe, English is the most popular second language worldwide.Butachieving fluency in English doesn’t come without its fair share ofdifficulties.9.( ) Mixing up closely related adjectives. English has many adjectives that are similar in both meaning andform, such as bored/boring and interested/interesting.10.( )Thus, it’s easy for English learners to accidentally use the wrong one. Forgetting about gender-specific pronouns. In many languages, object pronouns (e.g.him and her) andpossessive pronouns (e.g.his and hers) are the same.11.( )Therefore, remembering that these pronouns in English take on genderscan be demanding for some students. Forming questions in the wrong word order. In many languages, you can simply stick a question mark at the endof a sentence, and your statement becomes a question.12.( )Specifically, the statement “You are going to the store” becomes“Are you going to the store?” when it’s framed (表達(dá)) as aquestion.This is easy to forget, so learners often create ill-formedquestions like “You are going to the store?” Not knowing when to use the right article. The English language contains 3 articles:“the”“an”and“a”.They come before nouns and confuselearners.As any English teacher knows, it’s extremely difficult toexplain the precise rules regarding when to use “the” or “a” — andthere are plenty of exceptions.13.( ) To sum up, there are a lot of places to go wrong when learningEnglish!

E 上文說(shuō)明了全球大約有十億英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)者,但是要流利地使用英語(yǔ)并非易事。根據(jù)下文四個(gè)小標(biāo)題可知,E項(xiàng)(下面是英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)者最常犯的一些錯(cuò)誤)符合語(yǔ)境。語(yǔ)篇解讀:本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。文章介紹了英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)者最常犯的幾個(gè)錯(cuò)誤。10. A 空前一句指出:在英語(yǔ)中,很多形容詞在意思和形式上都很相似,比如bored/boring和interested/interesting。下文指出結(jié)果,英語(yǔ)學(xué)習(xí)者一不小心就會(huì)用錯(cuò)。A項(xiàng)(這幾對(duì)詞語(yǔ)僅相差幾個(gè)字母)符合語(yǔ)境,與下文構(gòu)成因果關(guān)系。A項(xiàng)中的These pairs指代設(shè)空處前一句中列舉的兩對(duì)形容詞。11.

C 上文指出:在許多語(yǔ)言中,你只需要在句子末尾加一個(gè)問(wèn)號(hào),就能把陳述句變成疑問(wèn)句。C項(xiàng)(但在英語(yǔ)中,要想構(gòu)成疑問(wèn)句,通常需要改變?cè)~序)符合語(yǔ)境,與上文構(gòu)成轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。C項(xiàng)中的word order與小標(biāo)題中的word order構(gòu)成原詞復(fù)現(xiàn)。13. D 上文說(shuō)明了英語(yǔ)中有三個(gè)冠詞:“the”“an”和“a”,英語(yǔ)老師都清楚的一點(diǎn)是,很難解釋清楚冠詞使用的準(zhǔn)確規(guī)則,況且還有很多特殊用法。D項(xiàng)(對(duì)于母語(yǔ)中沒(méi)有冠詞的學(xué)習(xí)者來(lái)說(shuō),這點(diǎn)尤其困難)符合語(yǔ)境。D項(xiàng)中的articles與小標(biāo)題中的article和上文中的articles構(gòu)成原詞復(fù)現(xiàn)。謝謝觀看! 展開(kāi)更多...... 收起↑ 資源列表 Section Ⅰ Welcome to the unit & Reading.docx Section Ⅰ Welcome to the unit & Reading.pptx Section Ⅰ Welcome to the unit & Reading(練習(xí),含解析).docx 縮略圖、資源來(lái)源于二一教育資源庫(kù)
