为给您2018考研英语复习助力,新东方在线为大家整理了一些考研英语的长难句资料参考,英语的复习像盖楼应该从基础开始复习,希望大家平时抽出一点时间读一读记一记。But this seems to be the irony of office speak:Everyone makes fun of it,but
managers love it,companies depend on it,and regular people willingly absorb it.
As a lingusit said,"You can get people to think it's nonsense at the same time
that you buy into it." In a workplace that's fundamentally indifferent to your
life and its meaning, office speak can help you figure out how you relate to
your work-and how your work defines who you are.
35.Which of the following statements is true about office speak?
Managers admire it but avoid it
Linguists believe it to be nonsense
Companies find it to be fundamental
Regular people mock it but accept it
长难句解析:
35.Which of the following statements is true about office speak?
原文: managers love it
Managers admire it but avoid it
所以这个选项中的but avoid it 就是文中没有提及的内容,可以排除。
原文:As a linguist said,"You can get people to think it's nonsense at the
same time that you buy into it." (你可以让人们觉得这是胡说八道,但同时你又会相信它。)
Linguists believe it to be nonsense (语言学家认为这是胡说八道。)
这个选项比较容易排除。
原文:companies depend on it
Companies find it to be fundamental
这个选项有很强和迷惑性;
问题的关键就是:depend on 是否能够等于 fundamental?
我对fundamental这个词比较警惕,
就如我在英语一的课程中讲过的:
essential和indispensible 常常就是NG(没有提及);
我早上吃了包子。就不能说:包子对于我来讲是必须的吧。
你依靠这个梯子上房。就不能说:你发现梯子是你的根本。
这个替换是有嫌疑的。所以我在做这个题的时候会看看D;
原文:Everyone makes fun of it;regular people willingly absorb it
Everyone= regular people; make fun of it=mock it
absorb it= accept it
Regular people mock it but accept it
