Question

根据短文内容，从短文后选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Which is much more significant to you when you are finding a job? Working experience or an advanced-degree? Well, I believe diverse people have different answers. 1. Here are following reasons:

Above of all, most of jobs don’t require such a high degree, which means just some few works, such as, theoretical physics, archaeology, or literature, need high academic qualification. 2. For example, when you are offering a department manager post, there is a man who has already been a manager for three years but only have a master’s degree and a no-experienced person with doctor’s degree, which one would you choose? Definitely the first one for the manager don’t acquire a doctor’s degree but rich working experience.

3. For instance, Bill Gates, who was the richest man in the world and also one of the most successful merchant. What a wise choice when he decided to abandon studying so that he can gain more working experience instead of a doctor’s degree. Or Steve Paul Jobs, who discontinue his study at his age of nineteen in order to become a personnel of a computer company just like Bill Gates. 4.

5. Maybe you shouldn’t have to gain an advanced or highest degree, but that doesn’t mean nothing. Probably a bachelor’s degree is still necessary in this fierce-competition society.

All in all, I think rich working experience is much more important than the advanced-degree.

A. However, a degree is still required for most people.

B. Meanwhile, rich working experience will draw more attention.

C. Secondly, plenty of experience will bring you success much earlier.

D. In my view, either working experience or advanced-degree counts.

E. As for me, I will say working experience without hesitation.

F. As a matter of fact, more people with rich working experience become successful.

G. From all of these, we can see that advanced-degree isn’t so necessary as working experience.

【名师点睛】

七选五题型主要考查上下文的理解与推断，虽然文章整体难度一般低于阅读理解，但是却给很多同学造成了很大的心理障碍。在这里提醒同学们，首先要克服心理障碍，同时要注意方式方法。第一，一定要注意文章开头的段落，文章第一段一般是主题段，会点明一篇文章要讲述的内容，做到心中有数；第二，注意设空前后的句子，因为这些句子之间是有一定的逻辑关系，所以一定要联系和理解上下文的语境。例如第1题，根据上文的Which is much more significant to you when you are finding a job? Working experience or an advanced-degree? （当你找工作时，哪个对你更重要呢？工作经验还是一个高级的学位？）及下文的Above of all, most of jobs don’t require such a high degree…（首先，大多数的工作不需要那么高的学历……）可知，此处是说“我的观点是工作经验更重要”，由此可得正确答案；第2题，根据空后列举a department manager post的例子及Definitely the first one for the manager don’t acquire a doctor’s degree but rich working experience.可知，此处作者想强调丰富的工作经验比高学历更重要，由此可知正确选项；第3题，根据空后列举的Bill Gates和Steve Paul Jobs的例子可以看出，作者认为丰富的工作经验能让人较早地成功，对比选项可得出正确答案；第4题，设空处位于段末，是总结该段内容的，该段主要通过Bill Gates和Steve Paul Jobs的例子来说明高学历没有如工作经验那样必要，对比选项可知正确答案；第5题，根据空后的Probably a bachelor’s degree is still necessary in this fierce-competition society.（在这个竞争激烈的社会里，学士学位可能仍然是必要的。）可知，此处应指“对于大多数人来说，学历还是需要的”，由此可知正确答案。
