【2024·上海】Reading Comprehension
Section A
Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
In the 1960s, Douglas McGregor, one of the key thinkers in the art of management, developed the mow famous Theory X and Theory Y. Theory X is the idea that people instinctively
51
work and will do anything to avoid it. Theory Y is the view that everyone has the potential to find satisfaction in work.
In any case, despite so much evidence to the
52
, many managers still agree to Theory X. They believe,
53
, that their employees need constant supervision if they are to work effectively, or that decisions must be imposed from
54
without consultation. This, of course, makes for authoritarian (专制的) managers.
Different cultures have different ways of
55
people. Unlike authoritarian management, some cultures, particularly in Asia, are well known for the consultative nature of decision-making—all members of the department or work group are asked to
56
to this process. This is management by the collective opinion. Many western companies have tried to imitate such Asian ways of doing things, which are based on general
57
. Some experts say that women will become more effective managers than men because they have the power to reach common goals in a way that traditional
58
managers cannot.
A recent trend has been to encourage employees to use their own initiative, to make decisions on their own without
59
managers first. This empowerment (授权) has been part of the trend towards downsizing:
60
the number of management layers in companies. After de-layering in this way, a company may be
61
with just a top level of senior managers, front-line managers and employees with direct contact with the public. Empowerment takes the idea of delegation (委托) much further than has
62
been the case. Empowerment and delegation mean new forms of management control to
63
that the overall business plan is being followed, and that operations become more profitable under the new organization, rather than less.
Another trend is off-site or
64
management, where teams of people linked by e-mail and the Internet work on projects from their own houses. Project managers evaluate the
65
of the team members in terms of what they produce for projects, rather than the amount of time they spend on them.

Parents feel that it is difficult to live with teenagers. Then again, teenagers have
1
feelings about their parents, saying that it is not easy living with them. According to a recent research, the most common
2
between parents and teenagers is that regarding untidiness and daily routine tasks. On the one hand, parents go mad over
3
rooms, clothes thrown on the floor and their children’s refusal to help with the
4
. On the other hand, teenagers lose their patience continually when parents blame them for
5
the towel in the bathroom, not cleaning up their room or refusing to do the shopping at the supermarket.
The research, conducted by St. George University, shows that different parents have different
6
to these problems. However, some approaches are more
7
than others. For example, those parents who yell at their children for their untidiness, but
8
clean the room for them, have fewer chances of changing their children’s
9
. On the contrary, those who let teenagers experience the
10
of their actions can do better. For example, when teenagers who don’t help their parents with the shopping don’t find their favorite drink in the refrigerator, they are forced to
11
their actions.
Psychologists say that
12
is the most important thing in parent-child relationships. Parents should
13
to their children but at the same time they should lend an ear to what they have to say. Parents may
14
their children when they are untidy but they should also understand that their room is their own private space. Communication is a two-way process. It is only by listening to and
15
each other that problems between parents and children can be settled.
A. natural
B. strong
C. guilty
D. similar
A. interest
B. argument
C. link
D.knowledge
A. noisy
B. crowded
C. messy
D. locked

jet lag(时差反应).
Travelers have traditionally fought this

with sleeping pills or alcohol. There are actually healthier ways that can work just as 31.
For example, the moment you get on the airplane, start
32
your biological block to the destination’s time. If it’s daytime in your destination, try to stay
33
. Walking around the cabin(客舱) can be of help. When it’s nighttime, try to sleep. In that case, eat before the flight,
34 an empty stomach will prevent you from sleeping. These tips will help you start a new

If you studied pictures that ancient people left on rock walls and you tried to determine their meaning, you would not detect interest in romance among the artists.
51
, you would see plenty of animals with people running after them. Life for ancient people’s earned to center on hunting and gathering wild foods for meals.
In modern times, when food is available in grocery stores, finding love is more
52
in people’s lives. The
53
is all around us. It is easy to prepare a list of modern stories having to do with love. An endless number of books and movies qualify as love stories in popular culture.
Researchers are studying whether love, a highly valued emotional state, can be
54
. They ask, what is love? Toothpaste companies want us to think attraction is all about clean teeth, but clean teeth go only so far. Scientists wonder how much the brain gets involved. You have probably heard that opposites attract but that
55
attract, too. One thing is certain: The truth about love is not yet set in stone.
First Impression
To help determine the
56
of attraction, researchers paired 164 college classmates and had them talk for 3, 6 or 10 minutes so they could get a sense of each other’s individuality. Then students were asked to
57
what kind of relationship they were likely to build with their partners. After nine weeks, they reported what happened.
