2.直接解题。
1.The shop workers(店员) in the western(西方的) world are glad(高兴的) when Christmas(圣诞节) is over(结束) because(因为) they don’t have to(不必)
A)rush(使匆忙, 飞奔,涌现) their feet(脚, 英尺) off(离开, 脱离)all day(整天).
B)listen to (听)the music playing all the time (始终) in the shop.
C)work overtime(加班地,加班的) to make more profits (赚取更多的利润)for the boss(老板).
D)try to please(使...满意) the customers(顾客).
1.B. 该题可以根据文章主题直接判断选项B正确。 也可以利用问题句中的细节信息词(shop workers),和特征词(Christmas)作为答案线索,同时还可以考虑利用备选项中的一些细节信息词(C:boss. D: customers)共同作为答案线索, 在文章中查找答案相关句:
If there is one group of Workers across the Western world who will be glad that Christmas is over that group is shop workers.
It is not that they like to complain.They realize that they are going to be rushed off their feet at Christmas.They know that their employers need happy customers to make their profits that pay their wages.But there is one thing about working in a Shop over(在...的期间) Christmas that is too(太...而不能...) bad(坏的, 严重的) to tolerate(仍受).
That thing is music(音乐).These days(目前),all shops(商店) and many offices(办公室) have(让) what is known as (被称为)“Piped music(通过线路输送的音乐)” or “muzak” playing for all the hours (一直)that(when) they are open(营业着的). Muzak has an odd history. During the 1940s,music was played to cows as part of a scientific experiment.It was found that COWS which listened to simple,happy music produced more milk.Perhaps workers and customers who listened to simple, happy music would be more productive and spend more money.
根据文章中的答案相关句(第2段最后1句,第3段前两句)判断商店里播放的背景音乐是店员们盼望圣诞节结束的原因。
