52.主旨题。文章第一段作者提出话题,苏联的根本性社会变革对女性的生活产生了深刻的影响。第二段作者描述了这些变化:女性获得了参与各种工作和受教育的同等机会,甚至进入了一些专业领域。第三段作者指出,女性在获得机会的同时电不得不付出巨大的代价。因此,纵观全文,作者既写到了变革带给女性的机会,电提到了她们面对的困难。故正确答案为C项。
53.词义推断题。第三段作者陈述了变革后女性面对的各种困境。女性参与工作导致工资水平下降。这又反过来迫使她们不得不出去工作,补充丈夫的收入来养家,但女性还得同时兼顾家庭。除此之外,在工作方面,男性继续垄断了好的工作机会。因此,这里和“monopolize”意思最为接近的是“hold”,故答案为A项。
54.写作目的题。结合第一题主旨题可以看出作者写作此文不是为了娱乐读者(选项C),也不是在讲故事(选项B),更没有比较不同的政府体制(选项A),作者只陈述了苏联社会变革对女性的生活产生了深刻的影响,是属于提供信息,故答案为D项。
55.文章基调(作者态度)题。作者既陈述了变革给女性带来的机会,也写到她们由此不得不做出的牺牲。因此,作者客观地提供信息,文章基调是客观的。故正确答案为C项。
56.推断题。文章第二段指出变革赋予女性和男性平等的权利。她们可以从事同样的工作,接受相同的教育,通过努力同样进人专业领域。尽管第三段提到她们由此也不得不付出很大的代价,但我们可以推断,和过去相比,女性的经济和社会地位还是有所提高的。故正确答案为A项。
六级仔细阅读练习题(二)
The General Electric Company, often criticized for the complexity of its structure and the resulting opacity of its numbers, said yesterday that it would break GE Capital, by far its largest business, into four businesses. The reorganization effectively eliminates the job of Denis J. Nayden, 48, the chairman of GE Capital. Each of the new units will have its own chief, who Will report directly to Jeffrey R. Immelt, G. E.'s chairman. "The reason for doing this is simple. I want more direct contact with the financial services teams," Mr. Immelt said.
The new businesses are GE Commercial Finance, GE Insurance, SE Consumer Finance and GE Equipment Management. Some support functions within GE Capital, including risk management and treasury, will now report to Dennis Dammerman, 57, a G. E. vice chairman who preceded Mr. Nayden as GE Capital's chlef. Mr, Nayden will remain at G. E. as an adviser for now, but is expected to leave shortly to start a financial services firm.
Mr. Dammerman insisted that the reorganization had nothing to do with the increasing clamor from investors, regulators and the news media for greater transparency in accounting and for chief executives to take more responsibility for businesses: Analysts seem to believe him. "This is just what it appears to be, a managerial, reorganization which gives leaders more direct access to the office of the chairman," said Martin A. Sankey, a G. E. analyst.
The executives leading the new units will also sit on G.. E. 's corporate executive council, a committee made up of the company's top 25 executives, which meets periodically and discusses various strategic and management issues.
GE Capital, the company's largest nit, provided $55 billion of G. E. 's $124 billion in revenue last year and $ 5.6 billion of its $19.7 billion in pretax profits. The rest of G. E. had been divided into 11 other businesses, many of them--lighting and appliances are examples-much smaller than the new GE Capital units, yet each run by someone who reports directly to the chairman. Mr. Dammermn said that Mr. Immelt began talking about breaking GE Capital into more manageable pieces as soon as he took over as chief executive last September. "Jeff didn't like the extra layer between him and the GE Capital businesses,"
G. E. has tried to make GE Capital less mysterious to 'the outside world. Although GE Capital was officially one unit, it had begun to report quarterly results in live product-related segments--a number that will be reduced to four with the new organization. And analysts say GE Capital's management has been more accessible than it was in past years, and that Mr. Immelt and other G. E. corporate executives have been willing to discuss GE Capital in more depth.
57. After the reorganization, GE will have altogether ______.
A) six businesses B) sixteen businesses
C) four businesses . D) fifteen businesses
58. Which of the following statements is NOT true of Dennis Dammerman?
A) He is now a GE's vice chairman.
B) He is expected to leave GE to start a new financial services firm.
C) He was once the chairman of GE Capital.
D) He regards the reorganization of GE as an initiative of its own.
59. All the following statements are False of Denis Nayden EXCEPT that ______.
A) the reorganization makes him lose his position as a chairman
B) he will remain for some time at GE as an analyst
C) he is currently GE's chairman
D) he is expected to start a new GE financial firm in the near future
60. The reorganization will enable GE's chief executive to ______.
A) quiet down the unrest in the world
B) work in a more friendly business environment
C) have more direct contact with GE's financial services teams
D) appear less mysterious to the outside world
61. The General Electric Capital ______.
A) is divided into five product-related segments now
B) provided more than 1/3 of GE's revenue last year
C) is going to be broken into more businesses
D) now has smaller units than all other businesses in GE

57.文章第五段提到“the rest of G.E,had been divided into 11 other businesses”,也就是除 GE Capital之外共有11家公司。文章第一段指出GE Capital将被分成4家公司。因此,调整结构以后,GE共有15家公司。答案为D项。
58.第二段第二句指出Dennis Dammerman是GE的副总裁,曾在Nayden之前做过GE Capital的主席。因此,选项A和C都排除。第三段中,Dammerman否认GE的结构调整和外界的压力有关,因此选项D说结构调整是GE自己的主动性举措符合原文意思,可排除。而第二段的最后一句中明确陈述即将离开GE的是Nayden,故答案为B项。
59.根据文章第一段中的“The reorganization effectively eliminates the job of Denis J. Nayden,48,the chairman of GE Capital.”可知正确答案为A项。
60.第三段的最后一句“This is just what it appears to be,a managerial reorganization which gives leaders more direct access to the office of the chairman”指出了结构调整的目的是以主席为首的GE高层可以和GE Capital的管理者更直接有效地沟通。文章最后一段提到调整结果时再次出现了这一信息,即“And analysts say GE Capital's management has been more accessible than it was in past years”,因此,答案为C项。
61.此题是关于GE Capital的细节信息题。文章第五段第一句“GE Capital,the company's largest nit,provided $55 billion of G.E.'s $124 billion in revenue last year and $5.6 billion of its $19.7 billion in pretax profits.”提到去年GE Capital收入550亿美金占GE总收入1240亿的三分之一多。因此,正确答案为B项。
