解析

本题主要考查对所给单词的理解和运用，需要根据句子的语境和语法要求，选择合适的单词并进行适当的形式变化来填空。

  1. “The new manager ____ the inefficiencies in the workflow by implementing new software.”
    • 句子意思是新经理通过实施新软件来处理工作流程中的低效率问题。
    • “address”有“处理、解决”的意思，且句子描述的是过去发生的事情，所以用一般过去时“addressed”。
  2. “After winning Best BigCo in 2008, Apple was a ____ last year and has been very impressive again in 2010.”
    • 句子表明苹果在2008年获得最佳大奖后，去年的情况，结合语境可知这里说的是去年是亚军。
    • “runner - up”意为“亚军”，符合题意。
  3. “While there's no conclusive evidence on exactly what we should be eating and when, the ____ is that we should listen to our own bodies and eat when we're hungry.”
    • 句子意思是虽然没有确凿证据表明我们应该吃什么和什么时候吃，但大家普遍的看法是我们应该听从自己身体的信号，饿了就吃。
    • “consensus”表示“共识、一致意见”，符合句子逻辑。
  4. “Employers from this region have created 200 ____ places for teenagers after the county council launched a campaign.”
    • 句子说的是当地雇主在县议会发起活动后为青少年创造了200个某种岗位。
    • “apprentice”是“学徒”的意思，“apprentice places”即“学徒岗位”，符合语境。
  5. “Of course, this is only a first attempt and we ____ the Innovation team for releasing this app as an open - source application.”
    • 句子表达这只是第一次尝试，我们应该对创新团队将这个应用程序作为开源应用发布表示赞扬。
    • “laud”意为“赞扬、称赞”，句子用一般现在时，主语是“we”，所以用动词原形“laud”。
  6. “As far as I'm concerned, information on the Internet isn't always right, and we must remain ____ of the Internet information.”
    • 句子意思是就我而言，网上的信息不总是正确的，我们必须对网络信息持怀疑态度。
