2020年MBA考試《英語(yǔ)》考試共48題，分為英譯漢和寫(xiě)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 best expresses the main idea of the passage?（）

A.Tipping is very popular in America

B.Better service deserves bigger tip

C.Discretionary tipping is not reasonable

D.Tipping embodies one's social status

正確答案:C

答案解析:A項(xiàng)僅僅指出了文中所論述的一個(gè)現(xiàn)象；B項(xiàng)是公眾的普遍看法，并非作者的觀點(diǎn)；D項(xiàng)是文章后面論述的一個(gè)次要觀點(diǎn)，并不能概括全文的主旨。

2、What field can not our descendants know?（）【閱讀理解A】

A.The origin of human beings

B.Some questions that perplex us today

C.Many philosophical problems which Marx and Engels wrote rather little

D.The future

正確答案:D

答案解析:

推斷題。由第三段第一句話But if our descendants know the answers to these questions and others that perplex us today, there will still be one field of which they do not know, namely the future. However exact our science; we cannot know it as we know the past. 就算我們的子孫知道了這些問(wèn)題和那些現(xiàn)在仍困擾我們的問(wèn)題的答案，那么仍然有一個(gè)領(lǐng)域是他們無(wú)從了解的，那就是將來(lái)。所以，選項(xiàng)D是正確的。

3、

We can infer from the passage that in the past an employee（）.

A.had job security and opportunity of promotion

B.had to compete with each other to keep his job

C.had to undergo training all the time

D.had no difficulty climbing the corporate ladder

正確答案:A

答案解析:

從第一段的句子“it is much harder than it used to be to offer good employee job security and an opportunity to climb the corporate ladder.”可以看出，過(guò)去一個(gè)好的職員很容易獲得事業(yè)保險(xiǎn)（job security）和晉升的機(jī)會(huì)（opportunity to climb the corporate ladder），工作上的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)并不殘酷，所以 B“必須和別人競(jìng)爭(zhēng)”不對(duì)， C“必須總是接受培訓(xùn)”過(guò)去沒(méi)有，D故意曲解了句子的意思。因此答案應(yīng)該是 A。

4、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 or day 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(shuō)“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(shuō)，這似乎是（appears to be）最好的辦法和長(zhǎng)遠(yuǎn)之計(jì)，但并沒(méi)有得到實(shí)際應(yīng)用（見(jiàn)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。

5、

According to the passage, doctors are most successful when they are（）.

A.authoritative

B.logical

C.emotional

D.scientific

正確答案:A

答案解析:第四段As for Medicine, any doctor will confirm that a large part of his job is not clinical treatment but faith healing. His apparently scientific approach enables his patients to believe that he knows exactly what is wrong with them and exactly what they need to put them right…至于醫(yī)藥，任何一位醫(yī)生都會(huì)確信他的工作在很大程度上不是臨床治療而是信念治療。他看起來(lái)科學(xué)的方法使病人相信醫(yī)生確切知道他們的病情所在以及需要什么加以救治…；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(huì)把任何人包裝成穿白大褂、看起來(lái)像無(wú)可置疑的權(quán)威。因此選A。
