12、are considered employed，and it also doesnt reflect workers who are underpaid，considering their qualifications.In the first sense，underemployment is a common problem in many of the developed world.Many people with college degrees are working in lowlevel or service industry jobs because the job market

13、 is full.The issue of parttime employment is also very serious.Some people are forced into parttime jobs，while others find themselves taking a parttime job because nothing else is available，even though they really need to work fulltime.This problem is especially common in areas with seasonal employm

14、ent，where employers find it cheaper to maintain and lay off parttime staffs，rather than keeping a full staff at all times.In the sense of shortage of workers，underemployment appears in a variety of situations.Some companies maintain a full staff to be prepared for seasonal work，or to keep welltraine

29、身高相等” ；第二空和 the job 连用，所以用 be equal to，表示“胜任这项工作” 。3B in general(一般说来，通常，总体上)和后面的 in particular(特别，尤其)相对。根据句意“我们正在努力从总体上增强环境意识，特别是提高对空气污染的意识。 ”可知选 B。in return 作为回报；in common 共同；in contrast 相比之下，都不合题意。4D 句意：恐怕你不能指望他们在 1 小时内完成 这项工作，你得考 虑到他们缺少经验这方面。allow for 考虑，考 虑到。A、C 两项不是固定词组，B 项 allow of 的意思是 “容许，容

30、 许有的可能” 。优质文档优质文档5D 考查动词辨析。句意：我 们已学会正确处理各种复杂情况。approach意为“处理，对付” ，其他选项不符合句意。6B 句意：这座小镇不只是一个小镇，它 还是许多人愿意停留的地方。 no more than 表示“仅仅” ；more than 表示“超过，多于，不仅是” ；no less than 表示“不亚于，不少于” 。7A 根据语境，前一个 说话人表示感谢，所以 对方应回答“不客气，不用谢” ，所以 选 A。8D interfere with 妨碍，干扰；cope with 处理， 应对；continue with 继续进行；correspond w

31、ith 与 相对应，与相符。句意：让我不安的是，我的选择与我女儿的并不一致。故选 D。9C 考查动词词义辨析。 persuade sb.into doing sth.persuade sb.to do sth.意为“说服某人做某事” 。此 处为其被动语态形式。express 表达；organize 组织；成立；prefer 更喜欢，选择某事物(而不选择其他事物 )，均不符合句意。10C set out 出发，动身，着手做；set aside 存储，拔出；set up 建立， 创办，创设；set down 放下，记下。主语是 A fund，fund 意为“基金会” ，谓语动词应用set up。句

32、意：抚恤死难工人家属的基金会即将建立起来。11C 名词 approach 后的 to 是介词，因而 to 后面的动词应当用动名词，故选择 C 项。12C 句意：当我反复提出的加入俱乐部的要求被拒绝时，我感到非常失望。reject 表“拒绝” ，符合 题意。13C would rather 接完成式表示对已发生的事情感到自责，具有虚拟的语气，其否定式在 rather 后加 not。14A 表示正式委婉的请求用 request。15C 根据时间状语 then 可知 C 项为最佳答案。句意：今晚 7 点到 8 点之间你最好不要打电话给经理，因为那个时候他正在参加一个重要的会议。.【语篇解读】 本文是

33、一篇说明文。低度就业或不充分就业不是指没有工作，常常指有着某种专业资 格的人从事着非专业的工作，也指本应该从事全职工作，而实际在做临时工作，或者人浮于事的状态。本文给我们讲述的就是低度就业的三个层面及其形成原因。优质文档优质文档1C 主旨大意题。全文在解 释 underemployment 的含义，故选 C。2B 细节理解题。根据文章第一段 对 underemployment 的解释：In the third sense，it is a form of overstaffing in which employees are not being fully made use of.可知 B 正确

34、。3B 推理判断题。第二段的第三句提及国家的就业统计，包含临时工作的人和现在付给工资的人，由此推断失业统计则包含没有工作的人，故选 B。4A 细节理解题。虽然第三段提到了在 发达国家低就业很常见，但是并没有说低就业仅发生在发达国家，由此可知 A 不符合文章的意义。误解分析：根据第三段第二句可知 B 正确；第四段的 it cheaper to maintain and lay off parttime staffs 说明 C 正确；根据第四段的 even though they really need to work fulltime 可知 D 正确。5B 细节理解题。文章最后一段提到有些公司没有解雇员工是为季节性的工作做准备，由此可知 B 正确。.1.strict 2.helpful/good 3.Functions/ Roles/Importance/Significance 4.running/working/going/operating/functioning 5.performance(s) 6.fired/dismissed/jobless 7.problems/troubles 8.higher/subjective/unfair/unjust/prejudiced9tense/damaged/poor/bad 10.discourage/affect/damage
