Even[强调词] those who aren’t hunting for jobs may find search agents worthwhile. [再次转回使用者，并且扩大使用者的范围。下面一定会论证凭什么扩大这个范围]Some use them to keep a close watch on the demand for their line of work or gather information on compensation to arm themselves when negotiating for a raise. [的确。]Although happily employed, Redmon[Redmon再次闪亮登场！目的就是进一步证明作者的推理无误] maintains his agent at CareerBuilder. “You always keep your eyes open,” he says. Working with a personal search agent means having another set of eyes looking out for you.
本段是结尾段。但似乎没有结束，这说明此文可能是节选。重心在使用者范围的扩大上。题目一定在“扩大”上做文章。
那么，现在我来分析问题。
41. How did Redmon find his job?
[找到了工作就是主题根据。作者费尽口舌就是为了说明PSA有用。我们可以把自己假想为PSA的推销员，我们的开头语应该说“Redmon就是用了我们的XXX才找到工作的”吧？如果一开始就说A/B/D那些细节步骤的话，听者早跑光了。]
[A] By searching openings in a job database.
[B] By posting a matching position in a database.
【C】By using a special service of a database.
[D] By E-mailing his resume to a database.
42. Which of the following can be a disadvantage of search agents?
（和我们看文章的时候分析的出题点一样。就是劣势1。A）
【A】 Lack of counseling.
[B] Limited number of visits.
[C] Lower efficiency.
[D] Fewer successful matches.
43. The expression “tip service” (Line 4, Paragraph 3) most probably means
（果然是考如何辨证使用PSA的细节。Tip service是作者话语中的表语，非常重要的。）
[A] advisory.
[B] compensation.
[C] interaction.
【D】 reminder.
44. Why does CareerSite’s agent offer each job hunter only three job options?
（果然考策略。题干是策略，考的策略目的。文章很清楚的。）
[A] To focus on better job matches.
【B】 To attract more returning visits.
[C] To reserve space for more messages.
[D] To increase the rate of success.
45. Which of the following is true according to the text?
（这种题目就是“根据本文，可以推理出什么……”，很直接地考推理！）
[A] Personal search agents are indispensable to job-hunters. [形而上学，明明作者是辨证的。这里怎么这么绝对？注意，如果作者的观点是形而上学的，这个选项就有可能是正确选项]
[B] Some sites keep E-mailing job seekers to trace their demands. [目的？应该关注该段主题句，是为了增大访问量]
【C】 Personal search agents are also helpful to those already employed. [好选项。最后一段都是讲它，再不选更待何时！]
[D] Some agents stop sending information to people once they are employed. [搞反了]
标准答案：
41. [答案] [C]
[解析] 这是一道细节题，问Redman是怎样找到工作的。依据文章第一段，可知答案为C。
42. [答案] [A]
[解析] 这是一道细节判断题。第三段前三句中，作者借专家之言表达了自己对搜索工具的缺陷的看法：确实职业咨询特征。选项A符合此意，为正确答案。
43. [答案] [D]
[解析] 这是一道词义题。依据第三段的第四句可知，“tip service”只起提示作用(reminder)，故答案为D。A. advisory意为“咨询，顾问”，与文章内容不符，因为文章说这种搜索agent缺的正是咨询特征。
44. [答案] [B]
[解析] 这是一道涉及因果关系的细节题。依据第四段首句可知答案为B。
45. [答案] [C]
[解析] 这是一道是非判断题。依据第五段首句可明确得知，C项为正确答案。
