參考答案及解析

誰從公司培訓中獲益最多?

第一段的三個空需要在理解整體的基礎上聯系起來進行選擇。根據調查，受教育程度越高，越有可能接受公司的培訓。And, incidentally，這里最好能理解下incidentally的意思：used to introduce a new topic, or some extra information, or a question that you have just thought of (引出新話題、附加信息、或臨時想到的問題)順便提一句。你越接受培訓，越有可能拒絕這份工作，苦苦哀求的家人、個人承諾以及工作壓力。相反倒是接受培訓較少的員工，可能會接受他們(指前面被拒絕的這些東西)。19題選turn down拒絕，21題與turn down對應，選take up接收。

22題，更多資源被分配給了管理層培訓而不是其他地方。training也是一種資源。

23題，regard….as固定搭配。雇主認為他們具有更好知識的員工更為重要。

24題，in terms of固定短語，就….而論，在…..方面。

25題，根據上下文意思來選擇。前面說花在管理層的培訓更多，這一句實際上是介紹原因：組織有賴于消息靈通的經理們做出正確的決定。25題，justify證明….正確。組織依賴于經理們所作的正確決定的事實證明了把更多的培訓花在他們身上是正確的。

26，informed，見多識廣的，消息靈通的。商務英語中常見的一個常見說法是keep informed(It is a good way to keep staff informed)，所以看到這個詞應該就很敏感。

27題，emphasis強調(Emphasis is special or extra importance that is given to an activity or to a part or aspect of something.)，指培訓的側重點在經理們的身上。

28題，let down使失望，這種側重讓其他員工失望。

29題，meet the demand滿足需要。雖然對低技術職員的培訓需求在增長，但經理們并沒有滿足這樣的需要。

30題，兩者之間的巨大缺口，gap。

31題，any form of 任何形式的計劃好的說明。

32題，后面的一句有個BUT，也就是轉折，所以前面用appeared to be，看起來像是。

33題，rate as固定用法，把某事物評價為
