2020年MBA考试《英语》考试共48题，分为英译汉和写作和完形填空和阅读理解A和阅读理解B。小编为您整理第四章 阅读理解A5道练习题，附答案解析，供您备考练习。

1、The following sentence（）is right.【阅读理解A】

A.The author thinks that we can learn nothing new from the usual fondling, cuddling and cleaning of babies by their mothers

B.It is rather unusual for a mother to hold her baby against her body when resting

C.Eighty percent of American mothers put their babies on the left side of the cradle

D.The author does not agree that there is a predominance of right-handedness in the population

正确答案:D

答案解析:文章第一段第四句If asked to explain the significance of this preference most people reply that it is obviously the result of the predominance of right-handedness in the population. （如果问及这种偏好的原因，大多数人回答显然是因为人口中右撇子占多数的结果），但是第6句作者表明 But a detailed analysis shows that this is not the case（但是一项细致的分析表明事实并不是这样的），可见作者不同意人口中右撇子居多。

2、What is the passage mainly about?（）【阅读理解A】

A.Dressing for effect

B.How to dress appropriately

C.Managerial positions and clothing

D.Dressing for the occasion

正确答案:A

答案解析:本题是中心思想概括题。根据文章开头第一句就可判断全文介绍了衣着给人带来的不同的印象，正确答案是A。文章核心并非告诉人们如何穿着合适，所以B不对；文章核心更不是谈如何穿着入时，所以C也不对；文章也不仅仅谈管理人员的职业服装，所以D不正确。

3、What is the main idea of this text?（）【阅读理解A】

A.The argument whether philosophy will ultimately be solved by science or not

B.The importance of learning philosophies, especially the history of philosophy

C.The difference between philosophy and science

D.A discuss about how to set a proper attitude towards future

正确答案:B

答案解析:主旨题。文章第一段介绍了我们为什么要学习哲学;第二段和第三段介绍了哲学和科学的联系和差别；第四段说明了学习哲学的必然性；最后一段总结了我们为什么要学习哲学。因此，本文的大意应是学习哲学的必要性，所以选B。

4、The example of what Plato thought in the passage shows that（）.【阅读理解A】

A.science development can solve many problems for philosophers

B.Plato knew nothing about Physics at his time

C.the scientists have achieved a lot in terms of light theory

D.different people have different ways of perception

正确答案:A

答案解析:细节题。第二段第一句指出，“科学家都倾向于认为，所有有关哲学的问题最终会由科学来解决。我认为对于许多哲学家仍争论不休的问题，这一点是千真万确的。”因此，A项正确，而B项显然错误。C，D项虽说法正确，但不符合题意。

A.They hire people at the lowest cost regardless of their skills

B.They see the gaining of skills as their employees\' own business

C.They attach more importance to workers than to equipment

D.They only hire skilled workers because of keen competition

正确答案:B

答案解析:问下列哪种情况与美国公司人才管理状况相符。第1段第3句话指出：“掌握劳动技能被认为是个人自己的责任。”B项说，“公司把获得劳动技能看成是受雇者自己的事。”可见，这两句内容相吻合。A、C、D三项又与原文不符，故B为正确答案。
