Question

【題目】We are already familiar with computers. They work for us at homes, in offices and in factories. We benefit(受益) a lot from the computers ,but at the same time, with the development of this high technology, it also caused a lot of trouble. One of them is the jobs’ problem.

Many people want to work, but it has become more difficult for people to find work in today’s work. Ma Yun’s unmanned supermarket appeared in 2017. It shows that more and more people will lose jobs even the simple job as a shop worker . The economy (經(jīng)濟) of the world needs to grow by 4% each year just to keep the old number of jobs for people. Often this is not possible, and so more people are out of work. Some people have no jobs now because new machines can do the work instead of many people in short time. Also, machines do not ask for more money and longer holiday. In all of the countries of the world, machines are taking work from people, not only in factories but also on the farms. One machine can often do the work as much as forty people. About 75,000 people are moving to the cities a day to look for jobs, but only 70% of them can find jobs.

【解析】

電腦的出現(xiàn)為我們的生活帶來了很大的好處，我們獲益很多，但同時它也導致了一個問題，那就是由于電腦和機器可以代替人做很多的工作，所以很多人都失業(yè)了。

【1】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第二段中Many people want to work, but it has become more difficult for people to find work in today’s work.可知，現(xiàn)在對于人們來說找到工作變得越來越難。由此可知應選A。

【2】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第二段中The economy (經(jīng)濟) of the world needs to grow by 4% each year just to keep the old number of jobs for people.可知，世界經(jīng)濟需要每年增長4%，這樣才能保持舊的就業(yè)人數(shù)。由此可知應選B。

【3】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文第二段中One machine can often do the work as much as forty people.可知，一臺機器可以做相當于40個人的工作。由此可知應選C。

【4】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)短文最后一句話About 75,000 people are moving to the cities a day to look for jobs, but only 70% of them can find jobs.可知，大約有75,000人來到城市找工作，但只有70%的人能找到，75,000*70%結果是52，500，故應選A。

【5】推理判斷題。這篇短文給我們介紹了電腦的出現(xiàn)給我們帶來的一個問題，那就是由于電腦和機器可以代替人做很多工作，這就導致了很多人會失業(yè)，對于現(xiàn)在的人來說，找工作就會變得更加困難。題目問的是文章的出處，A是故事書；B是報紙；C是小說。這篇文章比較客觀的給我們分析了這一現(xiàn)象和原因，它應該是報紙上的文章，故應選B。

這篇短文給我們介紹了電腦的出現(xiàn)給我們帶來的一個問題，那就是由于電腦和機器可以代替人做很多工作，這就導致了很多人會失業(yè)，對于現(xiàn)在的人來說，找工作就會變得更加困難。短文明確點明了問題，并細致的分析了原因，用數(shù)字更加直觀、形象，也讓我們比較容易理解文意。后面的題目設置有細節(jié)理解題和推理判斷題。細節(jié)題考查我們對文章某處事實信息的理解，答案�？梢栽谠�文直接找到。例如第4小題，這個題目屬于細節(jié)題中的計算題，根據(jù)全文的最后一句話About 75,000 people are moving to the cities a day to look for jobs, but only 70% of them can find jobs.，大約有75,000人來到城市找工作，但只有70%的人能找到，由此可知，75,000*70%結果是52，500，故應選A。推理判斷題則考查我們基于文章的事實進行合理的猜測或判斷正誤，如第5小題，這個題目問的是文章的出處，這需要我們從文章的中心大意出發(fā)，進行猜測。這篇短文比較客觀的呈現(xiàn)了這一現(xiàn)象，并分析了原因，還用了很多的數(shù)字進行說明、解釋，因此它應來源于報紙，故選B。
