题目解答
答案
解析
本题主要考查词汇在语境中的运用,解题时需要结合上下文的语义和逻辑来选择合适的单词。
第1题
根据后文“for many applicants do not set about their task in the right way”(因为很多申请人没有以正确的方式着手他们的任务)可知,这里说的是申请的失败往往是申请人的过错。“failure”意为“失败”,符合语境,所以第1题选“failure”。
第2题
此句表达申请人没有足够深入地研究工作要求。“deeply”是副词,意为“深入地”,可以修饰动词“study”,表示“深入研究”,所以第2题选“deeply”。
第3题
“advertise for”是固定短语,意为“登广告招聘”。这里说一家纺织品制造商的人事经理登广告招聘设计师,“advertised”是“advertise”的过去式,符合句子的时态和语义,所以第3题选“advertised”。
第4题
根据“but they had good ideas”(但他们有好的想法)可知,这里说的是人事经理愿意考虑没有工作经验但有好想法的年轻人。“without”意为“没有”,符合语境,所以第4题选“without”。
第5题
根据“She got the job”(她得到了这份工作)可知,只有一位申请人明智地附上了她的设计样本。“enclose”意为“附上,随函附上”,符合语境,所以第5题选“enclose”。
第6题
人事经理不要求用最精美的信纸或完美的打印,但期望在干净的纸上有清晰的书写是合理的。“reasonable”意为“合理的”,符合语境,所以第6题选“reasonable”。
