2023年MBA考試《英語(yǔ)》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、Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?（）【閱讀理解A】

A.Body temperature may serve as an indication of a worker’s performance

B.The selection of a number of permanent night shift workers has proved to be the best solution to problems of the round-the-clock working system

C.Taking body temperature at regular intervals can show how a person adapts to the changes of routine

D.Disturbed sleep occurs less frequently among those on permanent night ｏｒday shifts

正確答案:B

答案解析:本題要求對(duì)4個(gè)選項(xiàng)進(jìn)行判斷，找出不符合文章意思的選項(xiàng)來(lái)。選項(xiàng)A符合第4段第2句的意思，因此不是答案。選項(xiàng)C符合文章第4段第4句的意思，因此也不是答案。選項(xiàng)D符合第3段中Brown的有關(guān)的發(fā)現(xiàn)，因此也不是答案。選項(xiàng)B說“挑選一批固定做夜班的工人（has proved to be the best solution）”。但是，文章第4段只是說，這似乎是（appears to be）最好的辦法和長(zhǎng)遠(yuǎn)之計(jì)，但并沒有得到實(shí)際應(yīng)用（見文章最后一句）。因此選項(xiàng)B不符合文章原意（NOT TRUE），這就是題目所要求的答案。

2、The word “oscillated” (Line 3, Paragraph 3) most probably means（）.【閱讀理解A】

A.fell

B.climbed

C.developed

D.swang

正確答案:D

答案解析:這個(gè)詞的意思可以根據(jù)文中第三段所用的明喻判斷出來(lái)。文中說，整個(gè)1990年代，土耳其的GDP增長(zhǎng)就好像“遭受了猛烈的心臟病發(fā)作時(shí)的心電圖一樣”，可見GDP增長(zhǎng)時(shí)高時(shí)低，峰谷之間的差異較大，所以oscillated最有可能的意思就是“擺動(dòng)，震蕩”，只有D中的swang意思與之相符。

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

A.early acts fｏｒmen to follow as examples

B.particular places fｏｒmen 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(cè)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(yǔ)，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(gè)選擇項(xiàng)當(dāng)中，符合以上二點(diǎn)要求的只有A項(xiàng)，正確答案是A。

4、We can infer from the first paragraph that（）.【閱讀理解A】

A.most Americans regard tipping as a rational practice, though some of them dislike it

B.most Americans recognize the fact that tips encourage good service ａｎｄ　make servants feel equal

C.tipping is unnecessary ａｎｄ　unreasonable, but people in America have to, fｏｒit is a social custom

D.consumers only pay what they have to pay fｏｒa given service, because they don\'t like tipping

正確答案:C

答案解析:從原文第一段內(nèi)容可以推斷，雖然作者認(rèn)為小費(fèi)不合理，但美國(guó)人在接受服務(wù)后不得不付小費(fèi)，因?yàn)檫@是一個(gè)慣例。

5、What is the position of the head of human-resource management in an American firm?（）【閱讀理解A】

A.He is one of the most important executives in the firm

B.His post is likely to disappear when new technologies are introduced

C.He is directly under the chief financial executive

D.He has no say in making important decisions in the firm

正確答案:D

答案解析:問在美國(guó)公司中人力資源部經(jīng)理一職地位如何。第2段第4句話指出：“擔(dān)任人力資源部經(jīng)理一職者在公司作出重大決策時(shí)從未被咨詢過，也沒有機(jī)會(huì)升任公司總經(jīng)理?！盌項(xiàng)說，“他在公司作重大決定時(shí)沒有發(fā)言權(quán)?！眱删湟馑枷喾蔇為正確答案。
