2022年12月英語(yǔ)四級(jí)閱讀模擬練習(xí)及答案（2）

It is easier to negotiate initial salary requirement because once you are inside, the organizational constraints (約束) influence wage increases. One thing, however, is certain: your chances of getting the raise you feel you deserve are less if you don’t at least ask for it. Men tend to ask for more, and they get more, and this holds true with other resources, not just pay increases. Consider Beth’s story:

I did not get what I wanted when I did not ask for it. We had cubicle (小隔間) offices and window offices.I sat in the cubicles with several male colleagues. One by one they were moved into window offices, while I remained in the cubicles, several males who were hired after me also went to offices. One in particular told me he was next in line for an office and that it had been part of his negotiations for the job. I guess they thought me content to stay in the cubicles since I did not voice my opinion either way.

It would be nice if we all received automatic pay increases equal to our merit, but “nice” isn’t a quality attributed to most organizations. If you feel you deserve a significant raise in pay, you’ll probablyhave to ask for it.

Performance is your best bargaining chip (籌碼) when you are seeking a raise. You must be able to demonstrate that you deserve a raise. Timing is also a good bargaining chip. If you can give your boss something he or she needs (a new client or a sizable contract, for example) just before merit pay decisions are beingmade, you are more likely to get the raise you want.

Use information as a bargaining chip too. Find out what you are worth on the open market. What will someone else pay for your services?

Go into the negotiations prepared to place your chips on the table at the appropriate time and prepared touse communication style to guide the direction of the interaction.

參考答案：

1.[D] 推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第1句。開(kāi)頭立論：“It is easier to negotiate initial salary requirement在進(jìn)入公司以前就談妥你的最初工資要求要更容易些”。因此，在接受一份工作前應(yīng)該先提出期望薪金要求，即D。注意C中as much…as he can意思太絕對(duì)，不妥。

2.[B] 推理判斷題。Beth的故事是為了證明第1段提出的觀點(diǎn)，主要依據(jù)第2段第1句，第3段最后一句再次印證。核心詞為ask for。

3.[A] 推理判斷題。從Beth的故事中不難總結(jié)出：如果你要求加薪或提升，你可能就會(huì)得到滿足;你如果不要求，老板就可能不予考慮。因此在salary increase中含有很大的主觀因素，故而unfair。直接依據(jù)為第3段第1句。

4.[D] 事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第3段，performance“工作表現(xiàn)”，timing“抓住時(shí)機(jī)”和information“利用信息”是加薪的三大籌碼。D與其中對(duì)timing的闡述一致。

5.[C] 事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題。最后一段指出，帶著準(zhǔn)備好的籌碼去跟老板商談加薪，并在合適的時(shí)候拿出來(lái),而且要運(yùn)用一定的交際手段引導(dǎo)談判的發(fā)展方向，即C。注意其中place your chips on the table at the appropriate time “在適當(dāng)?shù)臅r(shí)候拿出籌碼”不等于A中的meet his boss at the appropriate time。

英語(yǔ)四級(jí)閱讀技巧(一)

順序法做題。該法適合有一定詞匯基礎(chǔ)，閱讀能力較強(qiáng)的同學(xué)，或者較簡(jiǎn)單的閱讀題，即先快速閱讀文章，再做問(wèn)題，做題時(shí)帶著問(wèn)題回到文章中精讀并找答案。我在做較簡(jiǎn)單的閱讀題的時(shí)候一般用這種方法，個(gè)人感覺(jué)一套題的閱讀倒數(shù)第一或第二篇閱讀相對(duì)簡(jiǎn)單。倒序法做題。該方法適合閱讀能力較一般的同學(xué)，即先閱讀問(wèn)題和答案，對(duì)問(wèn)題有初步了解后，帶著問(wèn)題讀文章，讀文章時(shí)沒(méi)有設(shè)問(wèn)題的地方快速閱讀，設(shè)有問(wèn)題的地方精讀。我在遇到比較難讀的文章時(shí)喜歡用這種閱讀方法，閱讀題最后一篇或者兩篇文章一般要難一些。抓關(guān)鍵詞是很重要。四級(jí)考試的閱讀題中，一般每個(gè)問(wèn)題都能找到關(guān)鍵詞，以前上課的時(shí)候老師稱為“題眼”，找到這個(gè)關(guān)鍵詞后，在文章中找到這個(gè)關(guān)鍵詞并精讀這段文章，一般就能找到這道題答案。按問(wèn)題的順序在文中找答案。大部分閱讀題問(wèn)題的順序和文章的順序是一致的，問(wèn)題設(shè)置上一般是一段一題，較長(zhǎng)的段落設(shè)有兩個(gè)或三個(gè)問(wèn)題，且?guī)缀跛蓄}能在文章中找到答案，因此，可按問(wèn)題的順序在文中找答案。

英語(yǔ)四級(jí)閱讀技巧(二)

難以回答的問(wèn)題果斷放棄，最后再來(lái)仔細(xì)研究。出題老師會(huì)按一定比例安排困難和簡(jiǎn)單的問(wèn)題，因此，遇到難以選擇的題時(shí)果斷放棄此題，先將其他簡(jiǎn)單的題做完了再回來(lái)仔細(xì)閱讀文章作答，如果還是不會(huì)只能放棄此題，最后如果有時(shí)間再做，沒(méi)有時(shí)間就猜一個(gè)答案吧，堅(jiān)決不留空白。注意看問(wèn)題是選“是”，還是選“不是”，或者雙重否定，出題者常常喜歡以此混淆你的答題。排除法做題，排除與文章態(tài)度不同或者主題不相同的選項(xiàng)，有的問(wèn)題選項(xiàng)中出現(xiàn)了很極端或者非常肯定的答案也應(yīng)該排除，還有一些出現(xiàn)了消極或者負(fù)面的意思的選擇也可以排除。養(yǎng)成良好閱讀習(xí)慣，不要逐字或反復(fù)閱讀，除了有關(guān)鍵詞的地方盡量快速閱讀。做題盡量做真題，歷年真題具有很高的借鑒價(jià)值，我考四級(jí)的時(shí)候就只做了10套近10年的真題閱讀題，每題做了三遍，最后感覺(jué)做閱讀就很順了。積累真題中的四級(jí)詞匯，真題中的四級(jí)詞匯一般是四級(jí)考試中應(yīng)用頻率較高的詞匯，語(yǔ)言考試基礎(chǔ)就是考你認(rèn)字，如果你詞匯基礎(chǔ)比較扎實(shí)，那通過(guò)四級(jí)考試就比較容易了，如果你沒(méi)有時(shí)間背記單詞，那么平常在做真題的時(shí)候一定要格外留意里面的四級(jí)詞匯。
