2020年MBA考試《英語》考試共48題，分為英譯漢和寫作和完形填空和閱讀理解A和閱讀理解B。小編為您整理第四章 閱讀理解A5道練習(xí)題，附答案解析，供您備考練習(xí)。

1、Advertising men dress people up in white coats because（）.【閱讀理解A】

A.it makes their advertisements more conspicuous

B.it makes their advertisements more convincing

C.the majority of TV doctors are dressed up in white coats

D.it makes the actors take the job seriously

正確答案:B

答案解析:最后一段They will dress anyone up in a white coat to appear like an unimpeachable authority or, failing that, they will even be happy with the announcement. 他們會把任何人包裝成穿白大褂、看起來像無可置疑的權(quán)威。因此選B。

2、What are the functions of studying philosophies mentioned in the passage?（）【閱讀理解A】

A.It would make our own idea flexible

B.It would help prepare us for the future and guide our actions

C.It would enable us to understand how things develop as to better tackle the future

D.All of the above

正確答案:D

答案解析:推斷題。A項在第一段開頭就已提到。第四段第一句話說道，“但是我們得為將來做準(zhǔn)備，沒有一些哲學(xué)知識，我們是無法理性地做到這一點的?！币虼?，B項應(yīng)該是符合題意的。而C項在最后一段也有談到。所以，答案應(yīng)選 D。

3、It is possible to find out if a person has adapted to the changes of routine by measuring his body temperature because（）.【閱讀理解A】

A.body temperature changes when the cycle of sleep and wakefulness alternates

B.body temperature changes when he changes to night shift or back

C.the temperature reverses when the routine is changed

D.people have higher temperatures when they are working efficiently

正確答案:D

答案解析:本題考了一個重要的細節(jié)：為什么量體溫能看出一個人是否已經(jīng)適應(yīng)新的工作時間呢？根據(jù)4第段第3句，正常日班工作時工作效率高，體溫也稍高。文章接著又說，改變工作安排之后，有一個適應(yīng)過程，體溫變動模式也隨著適應(yīng)程度的變化而變化，效率高時體溫也高一些。所以選項D是答案。這一點還可以從這一句最后的particularly in terms of performance中看出。選項A不全面，沒有指出體溫變化與身體的適應(yīng)程度大體上一致這一點，也沒有指出可以根據(jù)其工作好壞判斷。同樣的道理，選項B和選項C也不對。

4、The word “precedents” (Line 1, Para. 4) probably refers to（）.【閱讀理解A】

A.early acts for men to follow as examples

B.particular places for men to occupy especially because of their importance

C.things that men should agree upon

D.men’s beliefs that everything in the world has already been decided

正確答案:A

答案解析:該題要求根據(jù)上下文推測precedent的詞義。分析第四段第一句可以看出precedent和role models一起是并列賓語，所以precedent意義與role models類似，另外從構(gòu)詞法角度分析前綴re前面，在四個選擇項當(dāng)中，符合以上二點要求的只有A項，正確答案是A。

5、Why is there "wide-spread uneasiness and confusion about the food situation in Britain？"（）【閱讀理解A】

A.The abundant food supply is not expected to last

B.Britain is importing less food

C.Despite the abundance, food prices keep rising

D.Britain will cut back on its production of food

正確答案:C

答案解析:只要考生仔細閱讀，便可看出本文的第1段第5句Why do food prices keep on rising，when there seems to be so much food about？回答了這個問題。因此選項C是答案。文中未提及A項、B項和D項，因此這3個選項都不合適。
