单选题
Monthly reports from all divisions of the company must be delivered to the human resources office__________by 5PM today．
A．Recently
B．promptly
C．formerly
D．briefly
句子意为“公司所有分支机构的月度计划必须马上交到人力资源部，最迟截止到今天下午5点”。句子谓语是must be delivered，与此语气搭配的是promptly“立即，马上”，因此选B项。Recendy最近地，一般与现在完成时态连用。Formerly从前，briefly简洁地，均与语境不符。

2根据以下内容，回答题。
(A)
You’re busy filling out the application form for a position you really need；let’S assume youonce actually completed a couple of years of college work or even that you completed your degree.Isn't it tempting to lie just a little, to claim on the form that your diploma represents a Harvarddegree? Or that you finished an extra couple of years back at State University?
More and more people are turning to utter deception like this to land their job or to moveahead in their careers, for personnel officers, like most Americans, value degrees from famousschools. A job applicant may have a good education anyway, but he or she assumes that chances ofbeing hired are better with a diploma from a well-known university. Registrars at most well-knowncolleges say they deal with deceitful claims like these at the rate of about one per week.
Personnel officers do check up on degrees listed on application forms, then. If it turns out thatan applicant's lying, most colleges are reluctant to accuse the applicant directly. One Ivy Leagueschool calls them impostors; another refers to them as special cases. One well-known West Coastschool, in perhaps the most delicate phrase of all, says that these claims are made by no such
people.
To avoid outright lies, some job-seekers claim that they attended or were associated with acollege or university. After carefully checking, a personnel officer may discover that attendingmeans being dismissed after one semester. It may be that being associated with a college meansthat the job-seeker visited his younger brother for a football weekend. One school that keepsrecords of false claims says that the practice dates back at least to the turn of the century-that'swhen they began keeping records, anyhow.
If you don't want to lie or even stretch the truth, there are companies that will sell you aphony diploma. One company, with offices in New York and on the West Coast, will put yourname on a diploma from any number of non-existent colleges. The price begins at around twentydollars for a diploma from Smoot State University. The prices increase rapidly for a degree from theUniversity of Purdue. As there is no Smoot State and the real school in Indiana properly calledPurdue University, the prices seem rather high for one sheet of paper.
The main idea of this passage is that
A．employers are checking more closely on applicants now
B．lying about college degrees has become a widespread problem
C．college degrees, can now be purchased easily
D．employers are no longer interested in college degrees
