1. 

  

UP

[解析] 短语杂糅。本题考查对两个短语make up与make the use of的杂糅辨识，make up意为“组成，编造”；make the use of意为“最大限度地利用”，根据文中句意，up为冗余成分。

 

2. 

  

ADVERTISING

[解析] 固定句式。本题考查对there be句式的用法，其后直接加宾语。文中此句意为“目前，就业市场上有很多新的职位空缺。”单词advertising在句中既不起语义作用，也承担任何语法作用，因此是冗余成分。

 

3. 

  

CORRECT

 

4. 

  

BEING

[解析] 固定短语。本题考查固定短语be on the right track的用法，短语be on the right track意为“步入正轨，走上正确的道路”。文中的谓语成分为系动词加介词短语，不涉及被动语态，因此，being为冗余成分。

 

5. 

  

THE

[解析] 定冠词用法。本题考查定冠词the的用法，定冠词the表示特指，或上文提到过的词；此处people为泛指，不需要用定冠词the来修饰，因此，the为冗余成分。

 

6. 

  

SOMETHING

[解析] 固定短语。本题考查固定短语do the same for sb.的用法。短语do the same for sb.意为“同样也可以为某人做某事”，在文中it can do the same for you的意思是“它(the Career Forum)同样也可以帮助你”，因此，something为冗余成分。

 

7. 

  

OUT

[解析] 动词属性。本题考查对动词reach的及物性的辨识，文中reach为及物动词，可以直接加宾语，因此，out为冗余成分。

 

8. 

  

CORRECT

 

9. 

  

CLOSELY

[解析] 修饰语错误。本题考查contact的词性辨识，contact有动词和名词两种词性，作为动词为及物动词。在此题中若视其为动词，则可以直接加宾语，需去掉with，又因前面已有动词make，需同时去掉，不符合此种题型的要求，因此contact在此句中只能为名词词性，而closely为副词，不能够直接修饰名词，故closely为冗余成分。

 

10. 

  

MAKING

[解析] 时态错误。文中陈述的事实状况的时态均为一般现在时，表示陈述的一个事实，而文中动词短语make opportunity不能用于一般现在时。

 

11. 

  

PUT

[解析] 文中句子there is no pressure表示“没有压力”，无须添加put，因此put为冗余成分。

 

12. 

  

CORRECT

 

   

Summary of Annual Progress

    0  I am pleased to report another year of progress by the company. This
    00  performance has been achieved in the most toughest market conditions we have
        13    seen for many years yet. It reflects the effort over the past five years that has
        14    gone into transforming of our company into a highly competitive world-class
        15    business. Since 2002, we have managed to improve almost double our profits, and if this
        16    increase in profitability has been placed us at the top of the global glass industry.
        17    We have managed to succeed this in difficult trading conditions for a number of
        18    reasons, the most important of which has been from our ability to stay ahead
        19    of our competitors. We have refused to allow stand still and have continued to bring
        20    out a number of new products, most of which are already on the sale in our key
        21    markets. All this goes to confirm that the company's position as the recognized
        22    industry leader in technical innovation. We realize that there is still much more to
        23    be done, but we believe that we know precisely what extra this is and we have
        24    already put into place organiational and technical changes to bring this about.

13. 

  

YET

[解析] yet的用法。作为连词，yet意为“但是，然而”；作为副词，yet意为“还，已经”。文中此句意为“该业绩是在多年以来最艰难的市场条件下实现的。”而文中的yet在句中既不起语义作用，也不承担语法作用，因此为冗余成分。

 

14. 

  

OF

[解析] 固定搭配。英文中transform...into...为固定搭配，意为“将……转化为……”，所以of在此句中为冗余成分。

 

15. 

  

IMPROVE

[解析] 动词核心原则。英文中一个句子中不允许有两个动词。句型manage to do sth.意为“努力做某事，成功做成某事”。文中的to double为动词不定式，充当manage的宾语，“have managed to almost double our profits”意为“成功地使利润翻了近一倍。”因此，improve为冗余成分。

 

16. 

  

BEEN

[解析] 语态错误。文中此句中应为place的主动语态，而非被动语态。此句意为“盈利的提高已经使我们成为全球玻璃行业的龙头企业。”句中been把句子变成了被动语态，应该去掉，因此been为冗余成分。

 

17. 

  

THIS

[解析] 动词属性。英文中succeed为不及物动词，后不能直接接宾语；英文中succeed in doing sth.为惯用句型，表示“成功做成某事”。故this为冗余成分。

 

18. 

  

FROM

[解析] 短语杂糅。英文中from...to...表示“从……到……”，而文中此句并非表达此含义，此句句意为“我们成功的最重要原因是我们有能力领先于其他竞争者。”。句中our ability做been的表语，介词from在此处没有任何意义或语法作用，故为冗余成分。

 

19. 

  

ALLOW

[解析] 动词核心原则。英文中一个句子中不允许有两个动词。句型refuse to do sth.意为“拒绝做某事”，文中此句意为“我们拒绝停止不前”。其中to stand still为系表结构，allow意为“允许，同意”，通常用在句型allow sb. to do sth.里面。

 

20. 

  

THE

[解析] 固定短语。英文中on sale为固定短语，意为“出售，抛售”，因此定冠词the为冗余成分。

 

21. 

  

THAT

[解析] 固定搭配。文中此句中confirm...as...意为“确认……是……”。confirm后接名词作宾语，而不应该是that引导的从句，故that为冗余成分。

 

22. 

  

CORRECT

 

23. 

  

EXTRA

[解析] 修饰语错误。此句中指示代词this前有一形容词extra，但是指示代词前是不能有修饰语的，所以extra在这里应该被去掉；而且what this is为名词性从句，充当动词know的宾语，extra在此句中为冗余成分。

 

24. 

  

CORRECT

 

   

Personal Assistant of the Year

    0  Anne-Marie Garrard was shocked when it was announced that she had won the
    00  Personal Assistant of the Year award, "The other candidates seemed me
        25    to be very strong, and I have to say I found that the selection procedure really
        26    hard," she says. "I didn't think I had any chance of winning. When I heard my
        27    name, my legs were so weak I could only hardly stand up," she laughs. So
        28    how is "the best" personal assistant chosen from a group of so extremely good
        29    and very different individuals? The final decision was reached after a
        30    day-long session of the tests, interviews and exercises. Garrard believes
        31    the skills she uses in her job helped her how to perform well. For instance, although
        32    most of her work is for her company's Managing Director, she works for six bosses
        33    in all, so she always tries out to be prepared for anything that might happen.
        34    As for the future, her firm has closed for its summer break now; as soon as
        35    they will open again, there is a pay rise waiting for her. But Garrard is not
        36    going to be relax. She says, "There's always room for personal development. You must keep trying to improve."

25. 

  

THAT

[解析] 句子结构。动词find后面可以加宾语从句和双宾语两种结构，如若加that则为宾语从句，从句中需有谓语动词，而此句中that后面没有谓语动词；该句中the selection procedure为谓语动词found的宾语成分，really hard为宾语补足语，考查find加双宾语的结构，因此that为冗余成分。文中此句意为“我不得不说这个筛选过程真的很难。”

 

26. 

  

CORRECT

 

27. 

  

ONLY

[解析] 修饰语错误。副词hardly意为“几乎不”，而only作为副词意为“只，仅仅”，作为形容词意为“唯一的，仅有的”。英语中形容词不可以修饰副词，而only作为副词修饰hardly也会造成语义不通，故only一词为冗余成分。此句意为“当我听到我的名字时，我的腿都软得几乎不能够站起来。”

 

28. 

  

SO

[解析] 修饰语错误。副词extremely修饰good，so作为副词意为“如此，这么”，不能用来修饰extremely，故so为冗余成分。此句意为“最佳助理是如何从一群极其优秀而又各不相同的人中选拔出来的呢?”

 

29. 

  

CORRECT

 

30. 

  

THE

[解析] 定冠词用法。定冠词the通常用于表示特指词的前面，而tests在此句话中并非特指，所以无需加定冠词the。此句意为“在为期一天的测试、面试、操练以后最终揭晓结果。”

 

31. 

  

HOW

[解析] 惯用句型。英语中help sb. to do sth.意为“帮助某人做某事”，故how为冗余成分。此句意为“Garrad相信她在工作中所运用的一些技能让她表现得更好”。

 

32. 

  

CORRECT

 

33. 

  

OUT

[解析] 句型杂糅。英语中try to do sth.意为“尽力做某事”，try out意为“实验，试验”，后面直接加宾语，在本句中如若使用try out结构也不符合文中语境，故将out去掉。此句意为“她总共为六位老板工作过，因此她总能尽力为所有可能会发生的事情做好准备。”

 

34. 

  

CORRECT

 

35. 

  

WILL

[解析] 时态错误。英语中as soon as引导的时间状语从句通常用一般现在时来代替一般将来时，故will为冗余成分。此句意为“一旦这种情况再次发生，公司会为她加薪。”

 

36. 

  

BE

[解析] 系动词后需接形容词作表语，而此句中relax为不及物动词，意为“放松，松懈”，因此应将be去掉。此句意为“但是Garrad不会就此放松，她说道，人总是有个人发展的空间，你必须要不断地尝试自我提升。”
