二.阅读理解
???
Can
I
talk
about
salary
at
work?
In
a
word:
yes.
As
the
HR
company
Insperity
put
it
in
a
recent
blog
post:
Can
your
employees
discuss
their
salaries
or
wages
with
their
co-workers?
Yes.
Even
if
you
have
a
company
policy
against
it?
Yes.
???
The
freedom
to
discuss
your
salary
at
work
is
a
protected
right
under
the
labor
law.
The
National
Labor
Relations
Act
of
1935
protects
your
right
to
discuss
the
conditions
of
your
employment,
including
issues
related
to
safety
and
pay,
even
when
you're
not
protected
by
a
union.
???
Talking
about
salary
with
colleagues
can
be
uncomfortable,
since
there's
such
a
taboo
about
discussing
money
matters,
but
it's
an
important
step
towards
achieving
equal
pay
for
equal
work.
One
barrier,
however,
stems
from
how
we
think
of
our
own
financial
worth.
Too
many
people
I
talk
to
wrongly
consider
their
salary
a
reflection
of
their
worthiness,
a
statement
about
their
skills,
experience,
or
value.
At
the
end
of
the
day,
if
we
can
all
separate
our
self-worth
from
our
salaries
a
bit
more,
it'll
become
easier
to
talk
frankly
with
our
colleagues.
???
Asking
about
money
outright
can
be
tough,
so
one
trick
I've
picked
up
along
the
way
is
to
ask
for
your
colleagues
to
confirm
or
deny.
For
instance,
you
might
volunteer
your
salary
first
and
ask
"Does
that
sound
right
to
you?"
by
way
of
comparison.
Or,
let's
say
you're
interviewing
for
a
promotion
to
become
a
manager.
You
might
ask
a
fellow
manager
about
the
kind
of
salary
you
should
expect
by
saying,
"I'm
seeing
salaries
for
this
kind
of
position
ranging
from
$65,000
to
$
70,000—does
that
seem
accurate
to
you?"
This
way,
even
if
your
colleague
isn't
comfortable
sharing
their
salary
outright,
they
can
help
you
identify
if
your
expectations
are
appropriate.
(1).What
makes
co-workers
uncomfortable
to
talk
about
salaries?
A.The
safety
issue.
B.The
labor
law.
C.The
wrong
idea
about
salaries.
D.The
reflection
of
their
worthiness.
(2).What
does
the
underlined
word
"taboo"
in
Paragraph
3
refer
to?
A.A
prohibited
practice.
B.A
firm
belief.
C.A
general
agreement.
D.A
social
custom.
(3).What
is
mainly
talked
about
in
Paragraph
4?
A.One
of
my
interview
experiences.
B.My
way
of
asking
about
money.
C.The
method
of
raising
questions.
D.An
example
of
getting
promoted.
(4).What
can
be
the
best
title
for
the
text?
A.How
to
Discuss
Salaries
at
Work
B.Ways
of
Talking
about

C.Do
Salaries
Stand
for
Self-worth?
D.Can
Salaries
be
Talked
about
at
Work?

三.答案：①-⑤who;
was
admitted;
graduating/
graduation;
working;
gradually
⑥-⑩for;
closed;
up;
forgot;
friends
解析：①考查定语从句。先行词是
Albert
Einstein,关系词在非限制性定语从句中作主语,所以填who。
②考查语态。
admit和he之间有动宾关系,讲述的是过去的事情,所以用一般过去时的被动语态。
③after是介词,后接名词或动词-ing形式。
④此处可以理解为省略从句主语和be动词的时间状语从句,
While
working
there相当于
While
he
was
working
there。
⑤考查副词。修饰动词要用副词形式。
⑥考查介词。
The
Nobel
Prize
for
Physics诺贝尔物理学奖。
⑦考查非谓语动词。doors和
close是被动关系,所以用过去分词作宾补。
⑧考查固定搭配。
take
up
a
position任职。
⑨考查时态。讲述过去发生的事情要用一般过去时。⑩根据语境可知,此处填
friends。
