文章标题为 Selling Classical Music

答案：21——25  C B D B A

为文化类题

21. C解析：本题属于段落大意题，定位到文章第一段末句话For the most part, the response has been favorable, to say the least. “Hooray! At last!”，通过favorable，Hooray这两个关键词可以判定正确答案应该是C选项“得到赞同”。

22．B解析：本题属于细节题，定位到文章第二段第二句话Even Tommasini, who had advocated Gilbert’s appointment in the Times, calls him “an unpretentious musician with no air of the formidable conductor about him.”其中B选项就是对unpretentious“谦逊的”一个同义改写。

23.D解析：本题属于细节题。定位到文章第四段第一句，Devoted concertgoers who reply that recordings are no substitute for live performance are missing the point.说明了常去听音乐会的爱好者更看重现场表演，因此正确答案为D选项。

24．B 解析：本题属于判断对错题。定位到文章第四段第三解句话There recordings are cheap, available everywhere, and very often much higher in artistic quality than today’s live performances 中的available everywhere“到处可见”与B选项的be accessible to 属于同义替换，因此B答案正确。

25．A 解析：本题属于观点态度题。通过文章最后一段可以了解到Alex Ross, 对Gilbert 持肯定态度，相信他有能力把交响乐团变成一个与众不同的组织，后面一个关键性的连词 But表明作者的对Gilbert持怀疑态度。因此答案选A.

文章标题为 Top Managers Are Quitting, Without a New Job

答案：26-30   BDAAC

为经济类题材  

解析：

第26题:  属于态度题，定位回原文中，Rather than cloaking his exit in the usual vague excuses, he came right out and said he was leaving “to pursue my goal of running a company.”。rather than 表示而不是。这句话的表明McGee根据文章整体的意思，相对来说B选项最合适。

第27题： 属于细节题，并且题干已经表明：答案在第二段，定位回原文中，McGee says leaving without a position lined up gave him time to reflect on what kind of company he wanted to run. It also sent a clear message to the outside world about his aspirations. 单词aspirations 即为pursuit的同义替换  D选项为正确答案

第28题： 同样属于细节题，定位回原文我们可以找到：I can’t think of a single search I’ ve done where a board has not instructed me to look at sitting CEOs first. 双重否定表肯定即A为正确答案

第29题： 属于推断题，也已经给出定位在最后一段。“The people who’ve been hurt the worst are those who’ve stayed too long.”答案A 即为此句话的同义替换

第30题 ：属于主旨大意题，从首段首句When Liam McGee departed as president of Bank of America in August, his explanation was surprisingly straight up. 及第二段首句McGee says leaving without a position lined up gave him time to reflect on what kind of company he wanted to run.可以判断出整篇文章讲的就是senior managers 放弃以前所有来追求自己想要的东西。即C答案是正确答案
