Faced with a tough job market, fresh graduates are dreaming of running their own
business instead. But a recent survey has showed that such ambitions lack the required
support and remain just that—dreams.
The Shanghai Municipal Employment Promotion Centre poll of 1,276 graduates in
several universities and colleges in the city, released last Friday, showed 59.78
percent of respondents considered the possibility of setting up a company or at least
a small store. “But they just stop at the ‘thinking stage’”, it stated.
Respondents put the top reasons for not going it alone down to a shortage of
investment and a lack of business opportunity. They also listed lack of business
experience and social networks, the need for advanced study and objections from family
members as factors that stood in their way.
More than 90 percent of the interviewees said they would rather take up a job
after graduating and then consider starting their own business two or three years
down the road.
Guo Bin, a senior student in Shanghai International Studies University majoring
in English, decided he wanted to be his own boss last year. But he is looking for
a job first. “If I fail to find a satisfying job, I would like to establish a company
in exhibition services,” Guo said.
The Shanghai native has some relatives working in a local printing plant. With
their help, Guo hopes to produce exhibition brochures at a relatively low price. He

is also confident that his English language skills can help him do well in the industry.
“Social networking is an important factor leading to business success,” Guo
said.
Guo said that the shortage of graduate jobs is the main reason driving more
university students to set up a business right after their graduation.
Jiang said the university sets up a business guide team made of government
officials and professionals. They regularly give training courses to students who
show an interest in having their own business. The parents of university graduates
are more willing to help their children start up alone. The survey showed “Once you
win the support of your family, you have won half the battle,” Guo added.
31.Which of the following can be the best title?
A.A tough job market
B.Graduates can only dream of being boss
C.The ambitions of fresh graduates
D.The story of Guo Bin
32.Which of the following is NOT true about stopping fresh graduates realising
their dreams of being boss?
A.The lack of business opportunity and investment.
B.The shortage of business experience.
C.Less skilled English language.
D.Their family members' objections.
33.In the view of Guo Bin, what is the key factor that makes fresh graduates
dream of being boss soon after graduation?
A.Their family don't support them.
B.Their social networking is not good.
C.There are not enough graduate jobs.
D.They want to achieve greater success.
34.Who is this article mostly intended for?
A.The parents whose child will graduate from university soon.
B.Those who will graduate from university.
C.Those who want to be boss.
D.The officials who work in the government.

I bought 10 sets of Christmas china that were marked at 75 percent off plus
an additional 10 percent. It was an amazing deal. When I got them home, I found they
took half a closet to store. I already have nice china I can use at Christmas. I decided
it wasn't worthwhile to me to use that much space for something that I would only
use a couple of times in the year. I took them back and now I have more money in my
checking account as well as some luxury towels I have wanted for a long time. I would
have saved myself the time of taking the china back if I had figured out beforehand
what I really wanted, but it is sometimes hard to decide at the moment. This experience
helped me to realize that you can actually save time and money by passing_up bargains.
The main advantage of getting things on sale is that you can afford luxuries
that you can't afford at regular price. My Christmas tree is covered with beautiful

handmade Santa Claus ornaments(装饰物). I found them at a store about 15 months ago
and fell in love with them. I imagined how beautiful they would look on my tree. I
wanted to buy some, but they were $13.95 each. It didn't fit into our Christmas budget,
so I gave up the idea. Through the next few months the price kept dropping until it
went down to $2.95. When I saw that price, I bought 25 of them right away. I waited
another nine months to put them on my tree, but in the end, I got exactly what I wanted
for an excellent price. Instead of paying around $350, I ended up paying around $75.
Patience paid off.
35. Why did the writer take the sets of china she had bought back to the shop?
A.Because they were of poor quality.
B.Because they were too expensive.
C.Because they were of no practical use for her.
D.Because they covered too much room.
36. The underlined phrase “passing up” in the first paragraph probably means
________.
A.giving in to B.letting go by
C.passing away D.catching up
37. The author writes the passage in order to teach readers ________.
A.how to avoid unwise deal
B.when to go bargain hunting
C.how to make your budget
D.when to get what you are eager for
38. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the text?
A.The writer prefers to buy what is expensive at the superstore at a bargain
price.
B.The writer likes things on sale which are of high quality.
C.The writer paid about $75 for a Christmas tree with beautiful ornaments.
D.Patience led to the writer's success in getting what her family would like.
参考答案
课时作业(八)
Ⅰ.1.C 考查冠词。世贸大厦是由普通名词构成的专有名词,其前应使用定冠词 the。
shock 在这里意为“令人震惊的事”,为可数名词。
2.B 句意:1919 年在北京爆发了反对帝国主义和封建主义的“五四”运动。break down
表示“出故障”;break into 表示“闯入”;break up 表示“破裂”;只有 break out 表示
“爆发”。
3.B 考查形式宾语。动词 appreciate, find, consider 等词后接 it 作形式宾语,而
把真正的宾语置于句末。句意:如果你愿意教我如何用电脑,我将非常感激。
4.A 考查非谓语动词。逗号前是一个完整的句子,故此可以判断 happy…是形容词短
语作状语,相当于 she was happy to watch…,to watch 为动词不定式作形容词 happy 的补
语。
5.A
6.A 考查动词短语辨析。break down 表示“出故障”。break out 表示“突然发生,
爆发”;break up 表示“崩溃,分离,解散,结束”;break in 表示“闯入”。
只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力,才能尝到成功的滋味。
- 6 -
7.B as well as 表示“也,还”。
8.D 考查非限制性定语从句。由 had already had 可推断出介词使用 by,非限制性定
语从句中用 which。
9.A 考查动词短语辨析。stand for 表示“代表”; stand by 表示“坚持(某种)说法”;
base sth.on sth.表示“以某事为依据”;rely on 表示“依靠”。依题意可知答案。
10.B A 表示“英雄所见略同”;B 表示“三个臭皮匠赛过一个诸葛亮”;C 表示“一
鸟在手胜于二鸟在林”;D 表示“三思而后行”。依题意可知答案。
Ⅱ. 作者和朋友三年前去墨西哥旅游,在海豚训练员的指导下,他和朋友在水里与海豚
进行了一次亲密接触。
11.B 根据后面的宾语判断,作者和朋友是“参加”了这次旅程,所以选 B。
12.D 先行词是表示地点的名词,但关系词在从句中作主语,所以用 which。
13.A 由于作者要和海豚一起游泳,所以对将要发生的一切感到非常兴奋。由于还没有
发生,所以不能用“满意的”。
14.C 根据下文的“每小组 5—6 人”判断,此处是把游客“分成”了小组。
15.A 根据后面的 trainer (训练员)看,在水池边训练员给他们讲解了注意事项,所以
用 lecture。
16.B 根据下文的 had been trained 判断,此处指“训练”海豚的人。
17.C 上文谈到“海豚受到过良好的训练”,下文是其结果,所以用 therefore,意为
“因此”。
18.D under the rule of 在……的统治下;under the control of 在……的控制下。
根据句意可以看出在训练员的控制下,海豚可以和我们做一些运动。
19.B 由本段最后一句…touch them 可知要选 touch(接触;抚摸)。一开始要“抚摸”
海豚。其余三个词都有“打”的意思。
20.C 要抚摸海豚自然是一个接一个地,所以用 in turn(依次;轮流)。
21.D wait for sb. to do…等着某人做……。作者和朋友站在那里等着海豚过来。
22.A make sb. do 使某人做某事,有强迫的意思;force 和 cause 不能接不带 to 的不
定式。let sb. do sth.让某人做某事。
23.A 从进展的顺序看,先“抚摸”海豚,接下来要让海豚亲吻,所以此处为“下一步”。
24.B 海豚在水池里,要想让海豚亲吻自己的脸,必须要低下头。lower 降低;低下。
25.C 上文提到训练员吹口哨给海豚下指令,所以此处为 whistle。
26.D 海豚亲吻的自然是作者的“脸”,也就是 cheek(面颊)。
27.B 从语意看,此处应为“旅行”结束时。由首段第二句 There we ______ the tour…
可知。
28.D 根据下文的“用尾巴打我们”可知海豚生气了,in a bad mood 情绪不好。
29.A 训练员命令游客把胳膊抱在胸前,in front of 在……前面。
30.C 由于作者在水里,所以只好听从训练员的话,所以用 obey(遵守)。
Ⅲ.A
面对目前严峻的就业形势,应届大学毕业生们纷纷做起了“创业梦”,但近日的一项调
查表明,大学生们的“创业梦”因得不到应有的资金和其他方面的支持,还仅仅是个“梦”
而已。
31.B 主旨大意题。文章开始告诉我们这次调查的结果:面对目前严峻的就业形势,应
届大学毕业生们纷纷做起了“创业梦”。但近日的一项调查表明,大学生们的“创业梦”因得
不到应有的支持,还仅仅是个“梦”而已。后面介绍的是这次调查研究的具体信息。故 B 最
只有比别人更早、更勤奋地努力,才能尝到成功的滋味。
- 7 -
恰当。
32.C 推理判断题。由第三段对阻碍大学生创业的主要原因的分析,可知 C 项与文章内
容不符。
33.C 细节理解题。小郭在倒数第二段指出:严峻的就业形势是越来越多的大学生一毕
业就走上创业之路的主要原因。这里严峻的就业形势就是指 There are not enough graduate
jobs。
34.B 写作意图题。本文主要是针对即将毕业的大学生的就业问题所展开的一项调查,
所以其对象应该是刚毕业或即将毕业的大学生。
B
也许是天性,女人都喜欢购物,但购物也是有学问的,本文作者以亲身经历介绍了怎样
在节约时间又节约金钱的情况下购得有价值的东西。
35.D 细节理解题。根据第一段第三句至第六句“…I found they took half a closet
to store…use that much space … I took them back…”可知她把东西送回去主要是因为
它们太占地方了。
36.B 词义猜测题。根据第一段“…save time and money by passing up bargains”
可知 passing up 在这里意思是“放弃,放过”,即放弃讨价还价可以节约时间当然也节约金
钱了。
37.A 写作意图题。本文作者主要讨论了如何在既节约时间又节约金钱的情况下购得心
仪的商品,因此选择 A“怎样避免不明智的购物”最符合文章大意。
38.B 细节理解题。根据第二段作者购物的具体描述可见她购物是比较明智的,即不买
贵的而买对的(物超所值的)。
