2.(1)responded (2)answered (3)responded
[(1)respond指对某件事情在行动上立即做出的反应，常与介词to连用。
(2)answer较常用，指对问题的答复。常用作及物动词，后面跟宾语。]
Ⅳ.1.B [句意为：去年能源需求量的下降导致了国际油价急剧下滑。decrease下降，符合句意。benefit获益;damage损伤;measure测量。]
2.C [本题为强调句式，第二个空必须用who或that引导从句，因此可排除A项和D项;rather than意为“而不是”。此处强调的是Truman，故谓语动词应为单数，因此选C项。]
3.D [考查动词词组辨析。give in投降，让步;give away分发，散发;泄露;give up放弃;give off发出(光、热、气味等)。根据句意可知选D项。]
4.A [respond to是固定搭配，表示“对……作出回应”。]
5.C [考查固定短语辨析。in case以防万一。故C项正确。]
6.B [句意为：我一直在纳闷为何电梯突然失灵了。operate可作不及物动词，意为“(机器、电梯等)运转”，结合本题语境，只有B项正确。]
7.A [句意为：史密斯家买了新房子，这令邻居们非常羡慕。the envy of表示“令人忌妒或羡慕的对象”，符合句意。admire钦佩;respect尊敬;pride自豪。]
8.B [考查英语倍数的表达。英语表达倍数时，应把表示倍数的词置于前面，故B项正确。]
9.B [介词短语放在句首时，句子常用完全倒装。]
10.A [句意为：在会上，他们讨论了三种不同的数学研究方法。approach to意为“……的方法”。B、C、D三项后面都应跟of，不能跟to。]
Ⅴ.1.B [推理判断题。本文通过对当今做经理的不利方面的陈述，建议我们转变以前的择业观念，别做经理。故B项正确。]
2.A [细节理解题。依据文章第四、五、六段的描述，尤其是由其中的“more competitive showground”，“insecure chair”，“managerial jobs demand more hours and headaches than ever before”，“manage across functions with say，design，finance and marketing”这些部分可以得知，现在管理类工作的要求越来越苛刻，越来越高，故答案为A项。]
3.B [推理判断题。依据文章倒数第二段第一句的“...it may not pay to be a manager at least not the way it once did”可知，现在做经理的回报没有以前的高;而“The emotional rewards can be great，and there were times I enjoyed management.But a 10to11hour day and one weekend day a month is the norm.”只是其中一个具体的体现罢了，由此可知B项正确。句中的but 一词很关键。]
4.D [推理判断题。依据文章第五段第一句“There are far fewer steps for managers to climb.”可知A项错误;依据文章第三段第一句中的“...but in the past that stress was balanced by hopes for career mobility and financial rewards.”可知B项错误;依据第六段中的第二句“They must manage across functions with say，design，finance and marketing.”可知C项错误;依据倒数第三段第二句“With Dilbert’s popular cartoon character as well as many television situation comedies routinely describing managers as fools or enemies”可知D项正确。]
5.C [推理判断题。依据最后一段中的“While employers have dismissed a lot of managers，they believe many more candidates linger on at many companies.”可知C项正确。]
Ⅵ.
