《BuffetZone》，自助餐區(qū)域，在這篇文章里的意思理應(yīng)是自助餐領(lǐng)域，講的是一個(gè)在自助餐領(lǐng)域取得了驚人勞績(jī)的優(yōu)良女性創(chuàng)業(yè)的故事。這套題目不難，尤其比起第四輯的題目。文章本身有很明顯的故事進(jìn)展脈絡(luò)，選項(xiàng)和原文的對(duì)應(yīng)也對(duì)比明顯。文章的幾個(gè)段落是按照時(shí)間先后、故事發(fā)生的先后舉行的，很明確。第一段是總括，其次段是講的創(chuàng)業(yè)起步階段的一些困難以及應(yīng)對(duì)困難的對(duì)策，第三段是公司好轉(zhuǎn)后的辦公室重置relocation，第四、五段是公司的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)處境，結(jié)果一段總結(jié)。

第八題，前面說(shuō)一時(shí)沖動(dòng)她買(mǎi)下了這個(gè)外賣(mài)餐館takeaway，事實(shí)上那個(gè)時(shí)候她對(duì)餐飲業(yè)一無(wú)所知?？崭窈竺嬲f(shuō)的是這段時(shí)間很困難，但是對(duì)獲得所需要的閱歷卻是很有必要的。所以第八題的空格片面理應(yīng)填入跟學(xué)習(xí)、積累閱歷有關(guān)的內(nèi)容。D選型最吻合，Itwasadramaticlearningcurve，這里的learning是關(guān)鍵詞，很明顯的答案信號(hào)。還有verysmallamountsofmoneywereearnedatfirst，atfirst也是關(guān)鍵詞。

第九題，空格前面說(shuō)largenumbersofofficeworkerswantingtakeawayfoodfortheirlunches，大量的辦公室員工需要外賣(mài)食品做午飯，這里的wanting是個(gè)很關(guān)鍵的詞。空格后面話鋒一轉(zhuǎn)，說(shuō)曾經(jīng)一度5公里內(nèi)有26家食品商店，但是經(jīng)濟(jì)轉(zhuǎn)變了，一條街都空了blocksstartedtobecomevacant。從上下文來(lái)分析，第九空的內(nèi)容理應(yīng)和辦公室員工的外賣(mài)需求有關(guān)，同時(shí)帶有轉(zhuǎn)折意思。C選項(xiàng)完全符合這一條件：但是這種需求是短暫的，不久，逐步增長(zhǎng)的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)使得贏得利潤(rùn)變得更加困難。

第十題，上文說(shuō)經(jīng)濟(jì)形勢(shì)轉(zhuǎn)變了，所以Robertson抉擇從事多樣化的經(jīng)營(yíng)。后面說(shuō)這種做法永遠(yuǎn)的變更了公司的經(jīng)營(yíng)方式。所以第十空理應(yīng)填入相應(yīng)的對(duì)策，怎么樣來(lái)應(yīng)對(duì)經(jīng)濟(jì)形勢(shì)的轉(zhuǎn)變。符合這一條件的是B和E，都是關(guān)于解決問(wèn)題的，但是B選項(xiàng)所說(shuō)的招募競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手的餐廳經(jīng)理在上下文內(nèi)容中沒(méi)有提到。理應(yīng)選D，為商業(yè)大廈送飯，正好對(duì)應(yīng)下一段所說(shuō)的。

第十一題，這一題才理應(yīng)選B，前面說(shuō)競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手給自己造成了很大的困擾。但是Robertson卻不是那么輕易屈服的人。后面說(shuō)片面理由是這個(gè)，營(yíng)業(yè)額翻倍了。所以中間理應(yīng)也是填入對(duì)策。和競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手有關(guān)的，理應(yīng)選B，B的particular是個(gè)關(guān)鍵詞，rivalcompany也很明顯。

第十二題，前面說(shuō)Robertson想收購(gòu)一個(gè)競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手，但是沒(méi)告成，結(jié)果人家公司自己破產(chǎn)倒閉了。后面來(lái)了一個(gè)manyaccepted，可以看出這中間理應(yīng)填入的是人家公司破產(chǎn)后Robertson的一些舉措。F得志這一條件：一聽(tīng)到這些，Robertson連忙聯(lián)系他們的客戶并且供給了自己公司的服務(wù)。疑似生詞和句子：
