2、sted in staying at the company after graduation. However, balancing graduate studies with work was challenging. To deal with it, I checked my real self at my office door. I came in to work, greeted my colleagues and listened more than I contributed in each morning meeting. The small team I

3、worked with often seemed busy, so rather than giving ideas that might get turned down, I stayed back. After four months, my boss called me into his office. The meeting was going well until he told me that despite the great work I had produced, the team had held a meeting and decided, “We don't t

4、hink it's the right fit.” I must have looked confused.“You're ambitious, intelligent and will be very successful，” my boss said. “But you haven't made enough effort to join the team. You lost the enthusiasm you showed in your interview. That won't work long term, and if I could give you one piece

5、of advice, it would be to get your guard down.” I couldn't believe that performing well at my job wasn't enough to keep it. But I knew my boss was right.

They liked the person who walked into the interview, and they didn't respect me when I hid that person from them. “Don't leave before you leave.” That advice is essential for women at

7、all stages of our careers. Because we work so hard for success, we don't like to think that we hurt ourselves sometimes. But each of us must change when necessary. In trying to earn a full-time job, I “l(fā)eaned back” in order not to show too much of myself or my lack of expertise(專門知識). I learned that

8、 the hard way wasn't the way to achieve our goals. 【文章大意】　本文是一篇夾敘夾議文?！拔摇痹诠竟ぷ鳎趫F隊里，“我”辛苦勤奮，所在的團隊也緊張忙碌，但是“我”害怕表達自己的主張和建議。老板在肯定了“我”的成績的同時，建議“我”勇于表達自己的主張，分享個人的建議。 【難句分析】The small team I worked with often seemed busy，so rather than giving ideas that might get turned down，I stayed back.(第二段最后一句) 分析：這是

9、一個復合句。句中I worked with為省略了關(guān)系詞的定語從句，修飾先行詞The small team；句中that might get turned down為that引導的定語從句，修飾先行詞ideas。 譯文：我工作所在的小團隊常?？雌饋砗苊β?，所以我沒有把那些可能遭到拒絕的想法表達出來，而是退到后面。 1．Why was the author offered a job at the company at first?

10、s in her first month. C．She had quite a lot of experience in finance reporting. D．She showed her special financial talent while working there. 答案與解析：B'考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第一段第三句“I got a great one-month review and my boss asked if I was interested in staying at the company after graduation.”可知，在第一個月的工作中，“我”獲

11、得了很高的評價，給老板留下了深刻的印象，故老板決定聘用“我”。故B項正確。 2．During her next four months at the company, the author ________. A．performed well enough to earn the team's respect B．didn't balance her graduate studies with work very well C．was a good listener and contributed a lot in the meetings D．was afraid to offer

12、 her ideas because of her lack of confidence 答案與解析：D'考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)第二段第四句“The small team I worked with often seemed busy, so rather than giving ideas that might get turned down，I stayed back.”，并結(jié)合第四段倒數(shù)第二句“I did it to show that I was a listener，but also to hide my fears”可知，“我”工作所在的團隊常?？雌饋砗苊β?，“我”擔心自己的

13、建議或想法遭到拒絕，所以只愿做一個傾聽者。據(jù)此可知，由于缺乏自信，“我”害怕表達自己的想法，故D項正確。 3．What does the author intend to tell us in the passage? A．We should always keep up our enthusiasm at work. B．Expertise and experience are greatly valued in the workplace. C．We should not shy away from sharing our ideas when working in a

14、 team. D．It's unwise of women to show themselves off when they are taking part in teamwork. 答案與解析：C'考查目的意圖。文章第二段描述了“我”辛苦勤奮，所在的團隊緊張忙碌，第三、四段講述老板對“我”工作的評價：雖然辛苦努力，但是“我”缺乏在團隊中建言獻策的自信和勇氣，并不能贏得團隊的尊敬。據(jù)此可以判斷，本文旨在告訴讀者在團隊工作中不要畏避表達自己的觀點，故C項正確。 B Fidel Castro was born at his father’s farm on August 13,
