分析 【文章大意】這篇文章主要講了一個(gè)年輕的男孩想要得到微軟勤雜工的工作,他也順利通過了公司的測(cè)試,但是最后因?yàn)闆]有郵箱失去了這個(gè)工作機(jī)會(huì).因?yàn)橹鞴苷J(rèn)為,你沒有郵箱,就不能活在這個(gè)世界上.后來,男孩用自己口袋的10美元買了10個(gè)番茄進(jìn)行上門售賣,周而復(fù)始,他有了自己的汽車、卡車和運(yùn)送車隊(duì).五年后,男孩成為美國最大的食品零售商之一.當(dāng)有人問他郵箱時(shí),他告訴對(duì)方自己并沒有郵箱,而且面對(duì)對(duì)方的質(zhì)疑,他也說道如果自己有郵箱的話,自己早已經(jīng)是微軟的一名勤雜工了.

解答 58.答案為B.推理判斷題.根據(jù)文章中",The HR manager interviewed him and then watched him cleaning the floor as a test",我們可以得知在面試時(shí)小男孩接受的是擦地板的測(cè)試,所以男孩應(yīng)聘的應(yīng)該是勤雜工,而不是辦公室的工作.故答案為B.
59.答案為C.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)"I'm sorry,said the HR manager.‘If you don't have an e-mail,that means you are not living.And anyone who isn't living cannot have the job.'The man left with no hope at all."這句話,我們可以得知經(jīng)理認(rèn)為一個(gè)人沒有郵箱就意味著他不能生存,所以這也意味著他不能擁有這份工作,言下之意就是沒有郵箱的男孩不能得到這份工作.所以男孩面試失敗的原因就是因?yàn)樗麤]有郵箱.故答案為C.
60.答案為C.細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)文章中"The man left with no hope at all.He didn't know what to do with only 10 in hispocket.He thought and thought.Then he went to the supermarket and bought 10 kilos of tomatoes.He sold the tomatoes from door to door",我們可以得知,男孩離開微軟后,開始思考怎么利用自己口袋里的10美元,他買了10個(gè)番茄然后進(jìn)行上門售賣,也就是怎么賺錢.所以答案為C.
61.答案為D.判斷主旨題.根據(jù)全文,我們可以知道,面試失敗的男孩并沒有放棄追求夢(mèng)想的希望,而是通過自己的努力在另一個(gè)領(lǐng)域發(fā)光.所以這篇文章想要告訴我們的就是,只要我們肯努力,沒有什么事情是不可能的.故答案為D.
