　　经济学人的文章！快来做题吧！

　　冲刺课开始了！全是干货猛料！都是最新，最热的话题；题目难度设置都很难，也没有想让大家做对，重点是暴露问题，解决问题，预测考题！你一定要玻璃心：说题目太难，听不懂，不想考了…我也只能说矫情也没用，擦干眼泪继续做题，否则你对不起那么努力的你！

　　Most real-life personal assistants do not need to worry about their jobs being threatened by technology—at least yet. Digital assistants serve as a hands-free way to search for information but struggle to complete actions that require more complex steps, such as booking flights. Your correspondent spent several days “employing” a variety of available digital assistants. Although they can find nearby restaurants and make a booking through OpenTable, they do not yet know her well enough or have the judgment to tell her which is the “best” Italian food. Echo, Amazon’s product, can recite the definition of “personal assistant” without hesitation, but had no idea how to respond when your correspondent asked whether Echo was her personal assistant.

　　Why it is not necessary to worry about job replacement by technology?

　　(A) The digital assistants can not finish information searching for booking flights.

　　(B) The digital assistants are confused about the definition of the personal assistant.

　　(C) The digital assistants are lost in the judgment of their Personal identities.

　　(D) The digital assistants can not cooperate with your correspondents appropriately.

　　昨天题目的解析：

　　59. It's true of the old family firms that ________.

　　[A] they were spoiled by the younger generations

　　[B] they failed for lack of individual initiative

　　[C] they lacked efficiency compared with modern companies

　　[D] they could supply adequate services to the taxpayers

　　题型识别：细节题

　　题干定位：根据old family firms可以定位到第一段的若干句关于old family firm 的句子

　　解题思路：典型的细节题解题思路

　　选项分析：用四个选项分别和原文句子比对，同意替换的为正确选项，其他的排除；

　　[A] they were spoiled by the younger generations

　　被年轻一代给毁了；

　　这个选项看上去很符合我的常规的认识：富不过三代，并且用了视觉干扰，这是毕金献早年出题的风格，显得有点小猥琐。

　　原文：that so commonly spoiled the fortunes of family firms in the second and third generation.

　　这里的that指代的是前面的词组：decline in efficiency；因此可以知道毁掉公司的是效率的下降；时间是在第二和第三

　　代，但不是第二和第三代毁掉公司的。

　　（移花接木）

　　[D] they could supply adequate services to the taxpayers

　　能提供足够的服务给纳税人。

　　原文：the great municipalities went into business to supply lighting, trams and other services to the taxpayers.

　　移花接木

　　[B] they failed for lack of individual initiative

　　他们由于缺乏个体的动力因此失败了。

　　原文：It was moreover a step away from individual initiative

　　It= the change

　　The change was moreover a step away from individual initiative.

　　这种变化也是公司摆脱个体创造，走向集体化和市营、国营迈出的一步。

　　说明之前是不缺乏individual initiative的；

　　（ 移花接木）

　　[C] they lacked efficiency compared with modern companies

　　原文： decline in efficiency so commonly spoiled the fortunes of family firms.

　　缺乏效率毁掉了他们，被现代公司所取代，所以现代公司效率更高！

　　完美的同意替换；

　　从有到无也是一种比较；
