为了正确回答这一类题目，读者往往要采用各种阅读方法和解题技巧，也就是综合解题法 。在通读全文、掌握文章的中心大意的基础上，首先要仔细看懂问题，明确问的是什么，然后按照题意进行寻读，找到正确答案的根据 。
例1
Ours has become a society of employees. A hundred years or so ago only one out of every five Americans at work was employed, i.e., worked for somebody else. Today only one out of five is not employed but working for himself. And when fifty years ago "being employed" meant working as a factory laborer or as a farmhand, the employee of today is increasingly a middle-class person with a substantial formal education, holding a professional or management job requiring intellectual and technical skills. Indeed, two things have characterized American society during these last fifty years: middle-class and upper-class employees have been the fastest-growing groups in our working population --growing so fast that the industrial worker, that oldest child of the Industrial Revolution, has been losing in numerical importance despite the expansion of industrial production.
Yet you will find little if anything written on what it is to be an employee. You can find a great deal of very dubious advice on how to get a job or how to get a promotion. You can also find a good deal of work in a chosen field, whether it will be the mechanist\'s trade or bookkeeping. Every one of these trades requires different skills, sets different standards, and requires a different preparation. Yet they all have employeeship in common. And increasingly, especially in the large business or in government, employeeship is more important to success than the special professional knowledge or skill. Certainly more people fail because they do not know the requirements of being an employee than because they do not adequately possess the skills of their trade; the higher you climb the ladder, the more you get into administrative or executive work, the greater the emphasis on ability to work within the organization rather than on technical abilities or professional knowledge.
1. According to the passage, with the development of modem industry, .A. factory laborers will overtake intellectual employees in number B. there are as many middle-class employees as factory laborersC. employers have attached great importance to factory laborersD. the proportion of factory laborers in the total employee population has decreased
本题具体涉及对第一段的中心意思的理解，尤其是对这段最后一句中losing in numerical importance的确切理解 。这一段的大致意思是，当今的社会已经成为一个雇员的社会 。大约在100年前，5个美国人中只有1个人是被雇佣为别人干活的 。今天，5个人中只有l个人是为自己干而不被雇佣的 。50年前，被雇佣就意味着当工厂或农场的劳动力 。而今天，越来越多的雇员是接受过正规教育的中产阶层 。他们承担了需要智力和技术的职业或管理工作 。50年以来，美国社会的确有两个特点：中层和上层雇员成了工薪队伍中人数快速增长的一部分一—其速度之快使得作为工业革命最早的产物的产业工人在人数上相形见绌，尽管工业生产还在扩大规模 。所以选项D是正确答案 。选项A意思与选项D正好相反 。同样，选项B和选项C都不对 。
