Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:
Many people think there is need to take special care over home security.
“I‘m all right, I’m insured. ”
Maybe if you‘re fully insured. Even then you can never recover the real value you place upon your possessions. But you can’t insure against the upset and unhappiness that we all feel if our homes are seriously damaged by some stranger, our windows and doors smashed, our precious possessions ruined.
“It won‘t happen to me.’‘
Won‘t it? A home is broken into almost every minute of the day. Thefts of all kinds, including cars and property stolen, happen twice as frequently.
“I ‘ve nothing worth stealing.”
You may think not. But in fact every one has something worth a thief‘s attention. And we all have things of special value to us even if they’re` worth little or nothing in cash terms.
“I‘m only a tenant(房客) here.”
The thief doesn‘t care whether you’re a tenant or an owner-occupier. You‘re just as likely to be robbed. Have a word with the owner of the house if you think extra locks and fastenings are necessary.
“They‘ll get in any way.”
Most thieves are always looking for easy jobs. They are soon discouraged by houses they can‘t get into quickly and easily. So it’s worth taking care.
This booklet will help you——it‘s based on the practical experience of police forces throughout the country. Most of the suggestions will cost you only a few minutes extra time and thought. A few may involve some expense ,but this is small compared with the loss and unhappiness you might otherwise suffer. If you are in doubt, ask for free advice from the Crime Prevention Officer at your local police station .
26. Why should you still worry about protecting your possessions when you have insured them? .
A. You tend to undervalue your possessions.
B. You cannot insure against any damage to property.

hought much about security
Questions 3I to35 are based on the following passage:
One silly question I simply cannot tolerate is ``How do you feel?‘’ Usually the question is asked of a man in action——a man walking along the street, or busily working at his desk. So what do you expect him to say? He‘ll probably say, ``Fine, I’m all right.“ But you have put a bug in his ear - maybe now he is not sure. If you are his good friend , you may have seen
something on his face, or in his walk, that he overlooked that morning. It makes him worrying a little. He looks in a mirror to see if everything is all right, while you go merrily on your way asking someone else, ``How do you feel?‘’
Every question has its time and place. it‘s perfectly acceptable, for instance, to ask ``How do you feel?’‘ if you are visiting a close friend in the hospital. But if the fellow is walking on both legs, hurrying to take a train or sitting at his desk working, it’s no time to ask him that silly question.
When George Bernard Shaw, the famous British writer of plays was in his eighties, someone asked him ``How do you feel?‘’ Shaw put him in his place. ``When you reach my age,“ he said, ``either you feel all right or you are dead.”
3I. According to the writer, greetings, such as ``How do you feel?‘’_____ .
A. show one‘s consideration for others
B. are a good way to make friends
C. are proper to ask a man in action ……
D. generally make one feel uneasy .

C. a stranger who looks somewhat worried
D. a man who is working at his desk

34. ``You have put a bug in his ear“ means that you have______ .
A. made him laugh

C. made fun of him
D. given him some kind of warning
35 . This passage can be entitled .
A. A silly Question
B. Don‘t Trouble a Busy Man
C. What Are Good Greetings
D. Gerge Bemard Shaw‘s Reply
Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:
In recent years many countries of the world have been faced with the problem of how to make their workers more productive. Some experts claim the answer is to make jobs more varied (我种多样的)。 But do more varied jobs lead to greater productivity? The evidence shows that while variety certainly makes the worker‘s life more enjoyable, it does not actually make him work harder. As far as increasing productivity is concerned, then,variety is not an important factor. Other experts feel that giving the worker freedom to do his job in his own way is important. There is no doubt that this is true. The problem is that this kind of freedom cannot easily be given in the modern factory with its complicated machinery which must be used in a fixed way. Thus, although freedom of choice may be important,usually very little can be done to create it.
Another important consideration is how much a worker contributes to the product he is making. In most factories the worker sees only one small part of the product. Some car factories are now experimenting with having many small production lines rather than a large one, so that each worker contributes more to the production of the cars on his line. It would seem that not only is degree of the worker‘s contribution an important factor, therefore, but it is also one we can do something about. To what extent does more money lead to greater productivity?
The workers themselves certainly think this is important. But perhaps they want more money only because the work they do is so boring. Money just lets them enjoy their spare time more. A similar argument may explain demands for shorter working hours. Perhaps if we make their jobs more interesting,
they will want neither more money nor shorter working hours.
36. Varied jobs, in writer‘s opinion, will________ .
A. offer greater productivity
B. drive workers to work harder
C. make workers more productive
D. make worker‘s life more enjoyable, but do not make them more hardworking
37. According to the passage, freedom can not be easily given since________ .
A. it is in not what workers care about
B. it has nothing to do with increasing productivity
C. freedom will do harm to the management
D. machines in modern factories must be organized in a fixed way
38. Degree of the worker‘s contribution is greater when______ .
A. a factory possesses more experts
B. a factory has many small production lines
C. workers enjoy more freedom
D. workers work at a large production line
39. Workers want more money and shorter working hours to_____ .
A. enjoy themselves more after work
B. produce greater work flow
C. show their great abilities
D. challenge the managemen
40. According to the passage, the statement that best describes the writer‘s attitude is
A. there are no ways to make workers more productive
B. workers want more variety, freedom and money , but shorter working time and less contribution
C. variety ,freedom, contribution , more money and shorter working time seem possible factors leading to greater productivity, actually they are not or they are impossible
D. it is impossible to make workers work more productively, because the work they do is so boring.
PARTⅢEnglish-Chinese Translation(15%)
Directions: Read the following passage carefully. Then translate it into Chinese. Remember to write your translation on the Answer Sheet.
Old people are always saying that the young are not what they were. The same comment is made from generation to generation and it is always true. It has never been truer than it is today. The young are better educated. They have a lot more money to spend and enjoy more freedom. They grow up more quickly and are not so dependent on their parents. They think more independently and do not blindly accept the ideas of their elders. Events which the older generation remember clearly are nothing more than past history. Every generation is different form the older one and today the difference is very marked indeed.

在职MBA联考英语试题答案及解析
PART I Structure and Vocabulary 1.D.该题测试动词的非谓语形式。try之后既可跟doing,也可跟to do,try doing表示“试着做某事”;try to do表示“努力”(试图)做某事,根据题意,应为try to do结构,故排除A、B项;make后跟省略to的动词不定式,因此排除C项。
2.D.本题测试时态。根据题句中谓语动词的时态,told为过去时,宾语从句中的谓语动词应与之保持一致,排除B、C项,董事会的决定在told之前,故从句谓语动词应用过去完成时。
2.B.本题测试语态。every means(每一种方法)为单数概念,故排除A、C项。人们去试各种方法,因此正确答案为B. 4.B.根据题句的关键词as,再查阅四个选择项,可知本题测试as…as结构,“as…as”
中应为同级比较,C、D被排除,A项词序有错,故B为正确答案。

23.C.查阅第四段第一、二句即可知正确答案为C项。
24.B.这是一道词义猜测题。原句中的关键词组more physically active提供了重要的信息。结合选择项,显然A项不对,C项意为“运动量过多的”,也不符合题意,D项也难以符合题意,因此只有B项符合题意。
25.D.查阅最后一段的Only time can tell就可知D项为正确答案。
26.C.查阅文章第一部分最后一句“But you can‘t…ruined”,可知,财产可以保险,但精神创伤是无法赔偿的。故选C项。

35.A.综观全文,作者都是围绕着“How do you feel?”这个silly question而展开的。所以最好的标题应是A项。
36.D.查阅第—段倒数第二个句子就可知正确答案为D项。
37,D.第二段的第三个句子表明,本题的答案为D项。
38.B.第三段第三、四句表明,本题的正确答案为B项。
39.A.分析最后一段可知正确答案为A项。
40.C.这是一道推断题,要求推测作者的写作态度,综观全文,本文讨论如何提高工人的生产力;文章提出几种专家的想法。第一段指出在于工作的variety,第二段专家认为是freedom,第三段提出有人考虑contribution及more money and shorter work hours等,但实际上这几种都没法提高生产力。因此,正确答案为C项。
PartⅢEnglish-Chinese Translation老人总是说,年轻人与他们一辈人不一样了。一代又一代,人们总是这样评论,而这一评论总是正确的,在今天比以往任何时候更为正确。年轻人受到了更好的教育,他们有更多的钱花,享受着更多的自由。他们成长得更快,并且对父母并不那么依赖。他们更善于独立思考,不会盲目地接受长辈的思想。老一代人记忆犹新的那些事件只不过是走过的历史罢了。每一代人都不同于上一代人,而今天两代人之间的差异确实非常明显。
