阅读部分的练习：[font=Times New Roman][size=3] Automation refers to the introduction of electronic control and automatic
operation of productive machinery. It reduces the human factors, mental and
physical, in production, and is designed to make possible the manufacture of
more goods with fewer workers. The development of automation in American
industry has been called the “Second Industrial Revolution”.
Labour’s concern over automation arises from uncertainty about the effects
on employment, and fears of major changes in jobs. In the main, labour has
taken the view that resistance to technical change is unfruitful. Eventually,
the result of automation may well be an increase in employment, since it
is expected that vast industries will grow up around manufacturing, maintaining,
and repairing automation equipment. The interest of labour lies in bringing
about the transition with a minimum of inconvenience and distress to the workers
involved. Also, union spokesmen emphasize that the benefit of the increased
production and lower costs made possible by automation should be shared by workers
in the form of higher wages, more leisure, and improved living standards.
To protect the interests of their members in the era of automation, unions have
adopted a number of new policies. One of these is the promotion of supplementary
unemployment benefit plans. It is emphasized that since the employer involved in
such a plan has a direct financial interest in preventing unemployment, he will
have a strong drive for planning new installations so as to cause the least
possible problems in jobs and job assignment. Some unions are working for dismissal
pay agreements, requiring that permanently dismissed workers be paid a sum of money
based on length of service. Another approach is the idea of the “improvement
factor”, which calls for wage increases based on increases in productivity.
It is possible, however, that labour will rely mainly on reduction in working time.[/size][/font]

[font=Times New Roman]1.D 2.B 3.C 4.B[/font] :L同等学历要求完成一篇 阅读需多长时间？老师能不能给我们介绍一下阅读经验技巧，让我们更好的掌握这一模块。 只对了一个
:'( :'( :'( 由于用鼠标点黑相应生词即会生成翻译，省去了大量翻阅字典时间，好极！且在文章中记忆单词不至于很枯燥，在别的文章如再重复出现的话，就强化了印象，相对更容易记得住。
当然，如果老师能百忙中提供相应的译文的话，对我们的英译汉水平亦会有提高的。只是，那样的话，Our knight will be tired down. 第三题答案为什么是C呀？ 老师，给出答案时，是否能提供文章中文？ :'( 居然一个都没对呢！

请问老师:下句如何翻译:
中国的大部分建筑——不论是办公楼还是居民楼——所消耗的电、热和水等资源比发达国家的同类建筑要多.
另外,可持续发展,是sustainable development 还是 sustained development dbbd
这个太长了。
个人感觉还是单选好。 请问老师:你们网站的真题答案是标准答案吗

同等学历要求完成一篇阅读大约需9分钟（包括做题）。关于阅读技巧：
1. 建议大家先迅速的浏览一下题目。
2. 抓住每段的主题句，一般首段首或段位。
3. 考试时最好在文章中把自己觉得重要的信息勾画出来，减少记忆的容量。
4. 平时自己多做些瞬时记忆的练习。读下一段时脑子不断重复上面的内容。
5. 在规定时间内做完。让自己有一种时间紧迫感。
平时如果有时间的话，可以每周再自己额外定期做一两篇练习。开始有些不习惯很正常，大家习惯了就好了。大家继续努力吧！
