本次长篇阅读将话题投向了乔布斯，并着重围绕“创新”二字展开。
从题目设置来看，出现了一两道题干关键词并不能直接在原文复现的题，如47题题干中的lucky，在原文中的表达为“It turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me\，需要考生正确理解这句话背后的意思才能解题，这对于四级长篇阅读来说并不多见，也确实是本次试题难度有所增加的体现。从做题技巧看，建议考生先将有把握的题做对，在有余力的情况下，最后完成这种起到“拉分”作用的难题。 仔细阅读 1&2 答案
