2022年MBA考試《英語》考試共48題，分為英譯漢和寫作和完形填空和閱讀理解A和閱讀理解B。小編為您整理第四章 閱讀理解A5道練習(xí)題，附答案解析，供您備考練習(xí)。

1、The word “precedents” (Line 1, Para. 4) probably refers to（）.【閱讀理解A】

A.early acts fｏｒmen to follow as examples

B.particular places fｏｒmen to occupy especially because of their importance

C.things that men should agree upon

D.men’s beliefs that everything in the world has already been decided

正確答案:A

答案解析:該題要求根據(jù)上下文推測precedent的詞義。分析第四段第一句可以看出precedent和role models一起是并列賓語，所以precedent意義與role models類似，另外從構(gòu)詞法角度分析前綴re前面，在四個選擇項當中，符合以上二點要求的只有A項，正確答案是A。

2、The main reason fｏｒthe rise in food prices is that（）.【閱讀理解A】

A.people are buying less food

B.the government is providing less financial support fｏｒagriculture

C.domestic food production has decreased

D.imported food is driving prices higher

正確答案:B

答案解析:本題問的問題是，英國食品價格上漲的主要原因是什么？仔細閱讀文章，便知本題的答案可在第3段第1句里找到，即……due chiefly  to the gradual cutting down of government support fｏｒfood。因此，選項B是答案。文中雖提到people are buying less food（第3段最后一句），但這是因為糧食價格高，與選項“使糧食價格上漲的主要原因”，無關(guān)，因此選項A是錯的。文章未提及選項C和D，因此這兩個選項是錯的。

3、Which of the following applies to the management of human resources in American companies？（）【閱讀理解A】

A.They hire people at the lowest cost regardless of their skills

B.They see the gaining of skills as their employees\' own business

C.They attach more importance to workers than to equipment

D.They only hire skilled workers because of keen competition

正確答案:B

答案解析:問下列哪種情況與美國公司人才管理狀況相符。第1段第3句話指出：“掌握勞動技能被認為是個人自己的責(zé)任。”B項說，“公司把獲得勞動技能看成是受雇者自己的事。”可見，這兩句內(nèi)容相吻合。A、C、D三項又與原文不符，故B為正確答案。

4、The passage tells us that some manufacturers, instead of changing their product, would prefer to change its （）.【閱讀理解A】

A.production cost

B.quality

C.market value

D.appeal

正確答案:D

答案解析:第三段If, therefore, fｏｒone reason ｏｒanother, some alteration seems called for, how much better to change the image, the packet ｏｒthe pitch made by the product, rather than go to all the inconvenience of changing the product itself. 一旦需要改變產(chǎn)品，最好的辦法莫過于改變外觀形象、包裝或產(chǎn)品定位而不是不辭辛苦改變產(chǎn)品本身。“改變外觀形象、包裝或產(chǎn)品定位”都是指D。

5、What field can not our descendants know?（）【閱讀理解A】

A.The origin of human beings

B.Some questions that perplex us today

C.Many philosophical problems which Marx ａｎｄ　Engels wrote rather little

D.The future

正確答案:D

答案解析:推斷題。由第三段第一句話But if our descendants know the answers to these questions and others that perplex us today, there will still be one field of which they do not know, namely the future. However exact our science; we cannot know it as we know the past. 就算我們的子孫知道了這些問題和那些現(xiàn)在仍困擾我們的問題的答案，那么仍然有一個領(lǐng)域是他們無從了解的，那就是將來。所以，選項D是正確的。
