　　分析

　　第32题题干可以划定位词的有one reason, high staff turnover和morale。这道题考察“是非考点”，即high staff turnover的一个原因是不是poor morale。

　　第33题题干可以划定位词的有research，tendency和workplace。这道题考察“是非考点”，即research 有没有表示staff有这种tendency。

　　第34题题干可以划定位词的有working conditions and job security。这道题考察“是非考点”，即improvement in working conditions会让staff satisfied。

　　第35题题干可以划定位词的有breaks和working days。这道题考察是“是非考点”，即staff是否应该be allowed to choose。

　　定位

　　4… In addition, or maybe as a result, high employee turnover has been a recurring problem throughout the hospitality industry. Among the many cited reasons are low compensation, inadequate benefits, poor working conditions and compromised employee morale and attitudes (Maroudas et al. 2008).

　　6 While it seems likely that employees‘reactions to their job characteristics could be affected by a predisposition to view their work environment negatively, no evidence exists to support this hypothesis (Spector et al., 2000). However, given the opportunity, many people find something to complain about in relation to their workplace (Poulston, 2009)…

　　9 Herzberg (1966) proposes that people have two major types of needs, the first being extrinsic motivation factors relating to the context in which work is performed, rather than the work itself. These include working conditions and job security. When these factors are unfavorable, job dissatisfaction may result. Significantly, though, just fulfilling these needs does not result in satisfaction, but only in the reduction of dissatisfaction (Maroudas et al.，2008).

　　12 Deery (2008) has recommended several actions that can be adopted at the organizational level to retain good staff as well as assist in balancing work and family life. Those particularly appropriate to the hospitality industry include allowing adequate breaks during the working day, staff functions that involve families, and providing health and well-being opportunities.

　　答案

　　第4段倒数第二句中出现了定位词high employee turnover，最后一句出现的among the many cited reasons【被提到的原因当中】对应的32题中的one reason for，最后一句中的compromised employee morale【受挫的员工士气】对应题干中的poor morale，所以的32题答案是YES.

　　第6段第 一句中的predisposition【倾向】对应题干中的tendency，第 一句中的view their work environment negatively【对工作环境持有负面态度】对应题干中的dislike their workplace，这句中的no evidence exists to support this hypothesis【没有证据支持这个假设】与题干中的research has shown【研究表明】是矛盾的，所以第33题答案是NO。

　　第9段第二句出现了定位词working conditions and job security，这段最后一句中的just fulfilling these needs【仅仅满足这些需求】对应题干中的an improvement in working conditions and job security，这段最后一句中的does not result in satisfaction与题干中的makes staff satisfied是矛盾的，所以第34题答案是NO。

　　第12段第二句出现的adequate breaks对应题干中的take breaks，这段第二句中的during the working day是题干中的定位词，但这句中没有跟题干中的be allowed to choose对应的信息，而且这是最后一段最后一句，往后没有内容，所以第35题答案是NOT GIVEN。
