【文章內(nèi)容簡介】 people from places like that are just as good, if not better, as anybody you can get from any Ivy League school, said Bock, who just authored a book titled Work Rules! Every year, 2 million people apply to get a job at Google. Bock himself has seen some 25, 000 r233。sum233。s. So what else does Google not care about: Grades: Google39。s data shows that grades predict performance for the first two years of a career, but do not matter after that. Brainteasers: Gone are interview questions such as: Why are manhole covers（井蓋)round? or How many golf balls can fit in a school bus? Our research tells us those questions are a waste of time, Bock said They39。re a really coachable skill. The more you practice, you get better at it. Here39。s what Google does care about: Problem solvers: Your cognitive ability(認知能力), or how well you solve problems. Leaders: The idea is not whether you were president of the student body or vice president of the bank, but rather: When you see a problem do you step in, help solve it, and then critically, Are you willing to step out and let somebody else take over, and make room for somebody else? Are you willing to give up power? Googleyness: That39。s what Google calls its cultural fit. It39。s not Are you like us? Bock said. We actually look for people who are different, because diversity gives us great ideas. What39。s most important is that people are intellectually humble, willing to admit when they39。re wrong, and care about the environment around them… because we want people who think like owners not employees, Bock said. The least important thing? Knowing how to do the job. We figure if you get the first three right you39。ll figure it out most of the time.（1）What does Bock mean in Paragraph 2?

The more you practice, you get better at it.’”智力問答：谷歌不再出這樣的面試題了：為什么井蓋是圓的？或者是：多少個高爾夫球能裝滿一輛校車？博克說：“我們的調(diào)查顯示，這么問純粹是浪費時間。因為這些是能夠通過訓練提高的技能，你練習得越多，就能答得更好?！庇纱送茢喑觥案采w德克薩斯州需要多少衛(wèi)生紙”這是一個腦筋急轉(zhuǎn)彎，故選D。（3）考查細節(jié)理解。根據(jù)“Leaders:The idea is not whether you were president of the student body or vice president of the bank,but rather:‘When you see a problem do you step in,help solve it,’and then critically，‘Are you willing to step out and let somebody else take over，and make room for somebody else?Are you willing to give up power?’”這不是說你得是學生會主席或是銀行副總理，而是“當你遇到問題時能不能介入，幫助解決問題”。然后是眼光要犀利，“可以退出來讓別人接管嗎？能夠讓位于別人嗎？可以放棄權(quán)力嗎？”，由此可知依據(jù)谷歌的說法，一個愿意退讓的人是一個合格的領(lǐng)導者，故選C。（4）考查推理判斷。根據(jù)Googleyness: That39。s what Google calls its cultural fit. It39。s not‘Are you like us?’Bock said.‘We actually look for people who are different，because diversity gives us great ideas.’” 這點被谷歌稱作文化契合度。它并不是“你和我們一樣嗎？”博克說：“事實上，我們在尋找和我們不一樣的人，因為多樣性能給谷歌帶來卓越的想法。由此推知獨一無二的人是具有谷歌精神的人，故選A?！军c評】本題考點涉及細節(jié)理解和推理判斷兩個題型的考查，是一篇文化類閱讀，要求考生準確捕捉細節(jié)信息，同時根據(jù)上下文進行邏輯推理，從而選出正確答案。5．閱讀理解 Microplastics are everywhere in our environment. It39。s hardly surprising that the tiny fragments have also been found in humans. A new study shows that Americans are consuming as many as 121,000 particles each year. Measuring 50 to 500 microns in length, microplastics e from a variety of sources, including large plastics that break down into smaller and smaller pieces. Therefore, much remains unknown about the mon existence of these materials within the human body, as well as their impact on human health. Hoping to fill in some of these gaps, a research team led by Kieran Cox, a PhD candidate at the University of Victoria, looked at 26 papers assessing the amount of microplastics in monly consumed food items, among which are seafood, sugars, salts, honey, alcohol and water. The team also evaluated the potential consumption of microplastics through inhalation (吸入)using previously reported data on microplastic concentrations in the air and the Environmental Protection Agency39。s reported respiration rates. Based on these data, the researchers calculated that our annual consumption of microplastics via food and drink ranges from 39,000 to 52,000 particles. When microplastics taken in through inhalation are taken into account, the range jumps to between 74,000 and 121,000 particles per year. The authors of the study found that people who drink exclusively from plastic water bottles absorb an additional 90,000 microplastics each year, pared to 4,000 among those who only consume tap water. This shows that small decisions, over the course of a year, really matter and have an impact. Cox says. The new study, according to its authors, was the first to investigate the accumulative human exposure to microplastics. But in all likelihood, the research tells only a small part of the entire story. Collectively, the food and drink that the researchers analyzed represent 15 percent of Americans39。 caloric intak
