section,there is a passage with ten blanks.You are required to select one word for each blank from a list ofchoices given in a word bank following the passage.Read the passage through carefully before making your choices,Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter.Please mark the corresponding letter for each item on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.You maynot use any ofthe words in the bank more than once.Questions 26 to 35 are based on the following passage.You might think of your teeth as tools,like built-in knives and forks,but if they are mere tools,why do they feel pain and wouldnt it be better if they could just 26 under any condition?In spite of our_27 discomfort,it turns out theres a good reason our teeth are so sensitive.Tooth pain is a 28 mechanism that ensures when a tooth is being damaged well notice and do something about it.If we eat something too hot or too cold,or if the tooth is worn down enough where the tissue 29 is exposed,all of those things cause pain,and then the pain causes the person not to use that tooth to try to protect it a little bit more.So itsreally a protective mechanism more than anything else.If teeth didnt feel pain,we might 30 to use them in situations that damage them,and for humans,damaging 31 teeth is a problem because,unlike crocodiles,we cant 32 them.Teeth have three layers,only one of which-the innermost layer of the tooth-can hurt,as that layer of the tooth 33 both blood vessels and nerves.Pain is the only feeling to which the nerves in that layer respond.Whereas people with tooth sensitivity may complain,for example,of tooth pain 34 by heat or cold,the nerves in the inner layer dont sense temperature.Rather,they feel pain,which may be 35 with,say,drinking something very cold.A)adult B)associated C)chew D)contains E)continue F)defense G)dental I)emotional J)implies K)mammal L)replace M)swallow N)triggered O)underneathH)downward Section B Directions:In this section,you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it.Each statement contains information given in one ofthe paragraphs.Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived.You may choose a paragraph more than once.Each paragraph is marked with a letter.Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.How to determine if a company is a good fit for you A)On paper,the job seemed perfect for me:The position was completely in line with my degree,the duties and responsibilities were compatible with my interests,and the office maintained a well-stocked kitchen that would satisfy my every snack desire.B)Sounds like my dream job,right?There was only one small problem:I simply didnt get along with the company culture.They favored a more rigid,closed-door,corporate atmosphere,while I would have preferred something more collaborative and open.They were complete clock watchers,while I would have liked a more flexible schedule.To put it plainly,we just werent on the same page.C)When it comes to looking for a new job,you already know that a big part of the interview process involves the company evaluating whether or not youre a good fit for their open role.But,its important to keep in mind that the employer isnt the only one who needs to identify a good match-you should be looking for that same exact thing.Company culture can have a big impact on how you feel about your work,so you want to make sure you sign an offer letter with an organization youre truly excited about.D)However,figuring out what a company is like before you actually work there can be a bit of a challenge.Luckily,there are a few things you can do to determine whether or not a company is a good fit for you-before you ever sign your name on that dotted line.E)First of all,know what you want.Its hard to make any decisions when you dont really know what youre looking for.So before you can determine whether you and a specific company would be compatible together,its important to have a solid handle on what exactly you want from your employer.Many of us have an easier time identifying the things that we absolutely dont want.If those are the only things you can think of,dont 2022 年 6 月英语四级真题第 1 套 第 5 页共 10 页worry!Thats still a good place to start.F)Start by writing down the things you didnt like about previous employers,as well as the parts you really valued.Theres no wrong answer here-so from big things to small details,write them all down on your list.This will help you immediately identify what youre looking for in an organization,as well as the things youre trying to stay far,far away from.G)Make sure to do your research.Now comes the part when you put on your detective hat and do a little digging.The Internet will be your best friend when youre trying to familiarize yourself with a companys culture before ever walking through their office doors.And where exactly should you look for these culture clues?Start with the most obvious place first:the companys website.Read through their copy and blog.Do they use formal,direct language?Or is it casual,conversational,and maybe even a little humorous?This can be a big indicator of what sort of atmosphere the company is trying to cultivate.H)Next,turn your attention toward their social media outlets.Are they sharing photos of their teams Thursday afternoon barbeque or Halloween costume contest?Or are their social media accounts strictly reserved for company-related announcements and product launches?I)An industry review website like Glassdoor is another spot to check in order to find some insider information about what you can expect about a company.However,remember to take the reviews you read with a grain of salt-many of them are written by scorned（被鄙视的）employees.J)Finally,you can never fail with personal connections.Send a quick message to a current or previous company employee on LinkedIn or by email and ask if they would be willing to have a quick conversation with you about the organization in general.If you get a yes to your request for a chat,youll be armed with some pretty powerful and helpful information heading into your interview!K)Learn more by asking questions.You know that part at the end of a job interview when the hiring manager asks if you have any questions,and you just stare across the table blankly with your mouth hanging open?Thats the perfect opportunity to speak up and get your burning company culture questions answered!So yes,you can definitely ask your interviewer about what its like to work for that particular organization.Simple questions like,“What three words would you use to describe the culture here?”or“Whats your favorite part about working for this company?”can reveal a lot about what its really like behind closed doors.L)Prioritize your values.What does my dream company culture look like?Well,I could come and go as I please,as long as I was getting the work done.My boss would genuinely listen to and value all of my ideas arid suggestions.My co-workers would all be friendly with one another,without ever falling into the office gossip trap.The kitchen would have endless options of pizza and cookies.Oh,and theyd give me two months of paid vacation with a very generous salary.2022 年 6 月英语四级真题第 1 套第 6 页共 10 页M)What are my chances of finding all of those things with one employer?Slim to none-believe me,Ive looked.This is why its so important to know which aspects of a companys culture you value most.Is it an open communication style or a flexible schedule?Focus on the top spots on your priority list,and ensure a potential employer at least checks those boxes.Unfortunately,this is reality,you cant have everything you want but a few are certainly achievable.N)When youre hunting for a new job,you already know that the employer is trying to decide whether or not youre a good fit for the position.But you should also look at the process through a similar lens.You may not be the one conducting the actual interview,but youre still trying to determine whether or not the company is a good fit for you.O)Keep these tips in mind to figure out whether you and a potential employer are a perfect match or just a recipe（方案）for disaster.After all，its a good thing to know before actually accepting an offer.36.Clues about the culture of a company can
