意勞動分工重要性的第一人，也就是說他看出勞動分工所帶來的效益，故B項是正確答案。答案：B2．AdamSmithsawthatthedivisionoflabour________.A．enabledeachworkertomakepinsmorequicklyandmorecheaplyB．increasedthenumberofpeopleemployedinfactoriesC．increasedthepossibleoutputperworkerD．improvedthequalityofpinsproduced解析：細節(jié)理解題。第二段Smith解釋說：“10個人這樣分工協(xié)作一天可以生產(chǎn)12磅的針或者一人大約4800根針；但如果他們所有人單獨做不分工協(xié)作，他們當然不能生產(chǎn)任何針，(至多)每個人要生產(chǎn)只能生產(chǎn)20根一天，或者一根也生產(chǎn)不了?！庇纱丝芍狝damSmith看出勞動分工提高了每個工人可能提高的生產(chǎn)率。答案：C3．AdamSmithmentionedthenumber4,800inorderto________.A．showtheadvantagesofthedivisionoflabourB．emphasizehowpowerfultheindividualworkerwasC．showtheadvantagesoftheoldcraftsystemD．emphasizetheimportanceofincreasedproduction解析：寫作意圖題。作者在解釋勞動分工后帶來的益處時提到，每個人可以生產(chǎn)4800根，所以作者提到4800這個數(shù)字是為了顯示勞動分工的優(yōu)越性。答案：A4．Accordi
