参考答案及解析:
67.【答案】reveals
【解析】第一段提出话题,“据一项最新调查显示,现在的雇主们害怕他们雇cet4v.com生”,launch意思为“发起一场运动”,submit意为“提交,服从”,generate生成,reveal透露,揭露,显示。这里根据段意,reveal最合适。
68.【答案】staff
【解析】根据句意,基本有一半的组织机构告诉调查者他们在努力寻找具有四个方面(科学、技术、工程和数学)才能的职员。这里partners,audience, officials显然不符合题意。
69.【答案】while
【解析】这里和前面已经叙述的事实构成并列,“同时,更多公司预测,接下来的三年他们都将会遭遇雇员四缺现象(科学、技术、工程和数学知识技能欠缺)”,因此排除其他三项。选while。
70.【答案】shortages
【解析】由第二段句首struggling可判断,机构组织寻找这些人才非常不易,那么这种人才显然是不够的,短缺的。absence是表示“缺席,不在”,不能描述短缺,因此排除。此题的另一个关键是确定experience的词性,动词。
71.【答案】surveyed
【解析】第三段用一句话简介经过工业联盟调查了69个行业和组织,首先排除D和C,search是指搜查;细查某处以搜寻某人或某物,搜索;而survey是指调查某部分人的行为、意见等(cet4v.com),符合题意。
72.【答案】private
【解析】根据上一题的意思,调查在公共和私人部门中展开,后面一句的together暗示and后面的这个空是和“公共的”对立的,因此填private。
73.【答案】concerned
【解析】第四段描写了这个调查的具体情况。有一半人…,这里缺少动词,confront一般和with连用,conform 符合,遵照,confuse 使混乱,使困惑,这里根据上下文的意思,雇主们都担心这种现象的发生,因此选concerned, be concerned 担心的,烦恼的,忧虑的。
74.【答案】recruit
【解析】本题考查词义辨析,三分之一的被调查者坦言他们可能顾不到符合相应资质的雇员,只有recruit符合题意。
75.【答案】As
【解析】根据句子结构判断,前半句是一个伴随状语,“随着…的深入进行,…需求越来越强”,而不是条件状语或让步状语。
76.【答案】for
【解析】这里考查介词搭配。这里侧重于描述执行进展的计划的目的,选for。
77.【答案】intensify
【解析】本题考查词义辨析。根据前文,这种需求是不断增加的,intensify 增强,强化,变激烈;dominate指在…中占主导地位,这里并没有给出一个具体的范围,不符合句意。enforce 实施,执行;stretch 伸展。
78.【答案】technical
【解析】本题比较简单,属于送分题。前卖第二段已经指出在四个方面技能欠缺,选项中显然只有technical符合文意。
79.【答案】priority
【解析】这里考查短语固定搭配。cet4v.com 让…成为首要任务,当务之急。
80.【答案】subjects
【解析】这里鼓励年轻人学习科学相关的学科,从倒数第二段也可判断。academy 学院,研究院; procedure 步骤,程序,thought 思想,不符题意,排除。

82.【答案】rate
【解析】词义辨析题。rate评定某人、某事物的价值;order 命令,整理;discuss 讨论,论述,observe 观察,遵守。根据文意,雇主们认为A-levels中价值最低的学科是心理学和社会学,因此选rate。
83.【答案】particular
【解析】文章指出现在雇主们需要的是具备Stem四方面素质的人才,因此cet4v.com某一特殊学科的专业学位,而非typical典型的,general一般的,或者是积极的positive。
84.【答案】highlighted
【解析】词义辨析题。根据最后一句,该研究“强调” 对…的担忧, focus一般和on连用,其余两项意义不符。
85.【答案】workforce
【解析】词义辨析题。“提高英国劳动力的基本技能”,masses 民众,faculty 全体教员,community 社区,团体;整篇文章都在讨论就业和雇佣,显然选workforce。
86.【答案】where
