Passage 1
Making a good job choice is almost as good as choosing a good life. So, choosing a job is one of the most important decisions to make in life.
For my job, there are three important things that I will consider:
The first one—that I must work in an area I like—is most important to me. Someone once said if you find a job that you enjoy, then you won't have to work another day. I would like to work in an area where I can be more creative. I would like to be the most valuable member there. All this is possible only if I like what I do.
The second one is that the area of my work must lead me to solve some new and hard problems. I would like to stay in the same area for a long time. In order for this to happen, the work must provide enough problems. More than just working to live, I enjoy making a difference and trying my best for the whole progress. I would also like to be well remunerated (酬劳), so I can lead a comfortable life with this hard-won money. Then I can provide the best for my family.
The third important thing is that I would like to work in an area that would help other people. The work in my mind is in fields such as the army, training or management. In such areas, I can help to develop the abilities of others and bring out their best. It would be a most satisfying job to help young people to become the best that they can be. When I become old, I would like to look back with a great sense of satisfaction that thousands of people have become better persons through my work.
I accept the idea that no one should make a choice of a job suddenly or quickly. He should decide what he wants to be in the long run. Then, he should decide how he works towards it. He should study the proper courses, read the books and speak to knowledgeable persons in that field before making a job choice. A good choice will most probably lead to a better life.
1.According to the passage, a good job choice probably makes people ________.
A.solve fewer problems
B.choose a good life
C.be good family members
D.provide hard things
2.The writer wants to tell us that everyone should ________.
A.become a knowledgeable person
B.join the army to become a better person
C.make preparations to find a satisfying job
D.help young people to choose an interesting job
3.What is the best title for the passage?
A.My Job Choice
B.My Favorite Job
C.My Comfortable Life
D.My Sense of Satisfaction
Passage 2
Joan:
“I work on Saturdays and during school holidays. Saturdays are busy because that’s when everyone goes shopping. Our shop sells clothes for men, women and children. I work in the children’s department (部门). It can be crazy sometimes, but it’s fun.”
Justin:
“I work during my summer holidays. Oxford has thousands of tourists in summer, so it’s easy to find a job as a tour guide. I take tourists to visit the university and then we go down to the river. We go along the river on a boat. The tourists love the boat trip. I have fun at work—I love meeting people from all over the world.”
Pam:
“I like my job, but lots of people don’t like coming to see me because they hate dentists (牙科医生). Sometimes it’s very hard work, but it’s great to help people when they have a problem. It’s so important to look after your teeth.”
Paul:
“My job is very difficult, but I like it because I love flying and it pays well. Most of the time I fly in Europe to places like Spain, Greece and Italy.

Passage 4
Dear Victor,
I have received your letter from school. I am glad to know that you are becoming responsible enough to make decisions about your career (职业).
You are now in the final year of college and are going to go into the society. You asked me to give you some advice. You know that we belong to different times, and my social life is different from yours. However, all I can say as advice is that you must choose a career wisely. First think about your interest. You can only succeed and feel happy when you do something you enjoy. You must get a job which not only provides you with some-thing useful, but also you are pleased with. Then, you must read a lot about the field you are interested in. Also, you should get to know the people who work in that field. When mind and heart work together, success is coming.
No career is more important than another. I think your interest may be in the field of making TV programs. You have good communication skills. You are always active in school plays and you’ve won many prizes in speech competitions. All these lead you to that direction. So a career in mass communication (大众传播) or TV and film production will bring luck to you. If you succeed in that field, you will become famous and rich.
You are old enough to think for yourself. Think a thousand times before making any final decision about your career.
Best wishes!
Your loving father

D.There is no real understanding between parents and children.
二、阅读理解之七选五
Passage 1
请先阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后根据短文内容从下面的七个选项中选择五个还原到文中,使短文意思通顺、结构完整。一空一句。
Joe had been working at a bookstore for four months. Although four months might seem like a long time, Joe felt like it had been only one month since he was hired. 18 He couldn’t believe he got hired on the day of his interview. Joe felt grateful that he worked where he was. He loved to brag about his job to his friends and family.
19 His favorite author was Mark Twain. Joe’s most beloved book of his was The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Working at a bookstore not only gave Joe a chance to read books, but allowed him to interact with other fellow bookworms. Joe often would recommend books to customers, and customers would do the same for Joe. Every now and then, he would come across classic books and want to take them home to read. 20 It was difficult to decide which book to take sometimes. Joe was getting paid three hundred dollars every two weeks. Sometimes it would surpass this amount when he worked overtime. 21 Buying a car was the main reason Joe wanted to start working. He began shopping online for used vehicles.
Joe already knew which kind of car he wanted. He had first seen a picture of it in a magazine, and he had dreamed of owning one of his very own. His dream car was 1984 BMW. 22 He would search on the Internet until he finally found it. Joe could not believe it when he discovered a seller with the car.
A.Joe wanted a black one with two doors.
B.Joe loved reading books in his spare time.
C.Working at a bookstore was a dream job for Joe.
D.Joe liked buying books written by American writers.
E.Joe’s manager allowed him one book for free once a week.
F.His boss wouldn’t allow him to take away the books from the bookstore.
G.After a couple of months, Joe had saved up enough money to finally buy his first car.
Passage 2
“I feel my heart beating, my eyes widen and almost automatically (自动地), I start to smile,” Prayitno Goenarto said. This is how he feels when he sees a new kind of bird.
Goenarto is a birdwatcher and wildlife photographer from Indonesia. He is now 31 years old. When he became sick in college, his doctor asked him to go out more often for sunlight, exercise and fresh air. 23
A birdwatcher needs to know a lot and be brave and strong. Goenarto spends most of his time working in the wild. He knows where and when to find different kinds of birds. Sometimes he has to go deep into the forest to find the shy birds. 24 He might get lost. He has to look out for snakes and some big animals. Once, Goenarto went to a faraway island to look for some rare birds. 25 He worked in wet clothes for the whole trip.
Goenarto loves his work. Birdwatching helps him stay healthy and he can make friends with other birdwatchers. 26 This helps more people learn about birds and take action to protect them. That’s the best part of the job!
27 They study and protect the rare birds. Terry Townshend is a British birdwatcher in China. He has studied Beijing swifts for over ten years. Xu Zhuo protects red-crowned cranes in Heilongjiang. Her father, aunt and grandparents also spent their lifetime looking after the birds. Now the young girl has the job.
A.It can be dangerous.
B.It rained heavily every day.
C.Most birds are active in the daytime.
D.That’s when he started watching birds.
E.If we do nothing, there may be none left soon.
F.Moreover, he catches wonderful moments of birds.
G.In China, there are lots of birdwatchers like Goenarto.

“All work should be admired.” my father always told me. He wasn’t 58 , but he made a reasonable living. Thanks to his effort, I was able to go to an art college. However I wanted to do something different, something more interesting. I was 59 !
After graduation, I moved to New York to look for a designer (设计师) job. It was 60 and I only brought enough money to support myself for about a month. I wasn’t 61 at all—I was sure I’d find a fantastic job at once.
Within a few weeks, though, I found I had been 62 by every design office in the town. The rent (租金) of my 63 was almost gone and I hadn’t eaten for days. “How could I reach this point?” I wondered as I shook with cold in my thin jacket.
I was just about to give up 64 my dad called. He suggested that I get a job in a restaurant until something else came along. At first, I didn’t 65 to his advice because of pride. But I was cold and hungry. I didn’t want to go home feeling 66 and defeated (打败).
I entered an expensive-looking cafe near one of the design offices that had turned me away and asked the manager if they would need people to work there. She said they were shorthanded and 67 me a job right away.
68 , I found that I really enjoyed serving people. I started making big 69 right away. Later, the manager learned that I had a design 70 and asked me to design the cafe menus. That led to a part-time job at an advertising company.

Passage 1
Making a good job choice is almost as good as choosing a good life. So, choosing a job is one of the most important decisions to make in life.
For my job, there are three important things that I will consider:
The first one—that I must work in an area I like—is most important to me. Someone once said if you find a job that you enjoy, then you won't have to work another day. I would like to work in an area where I can be more creative. I would like to be the most valuable member there. All this is possible only if I like what I do.
The second one is that the area of my work must lead me to solve some new and hard problems. I would like to stay in the same area for a long time. In order for this to happen, the work must provide enough problems. More than just working to live, I enjoy making a difference and trying my best for the whole progress. I would also like to be well remunerated (酬劳), so I can lead a comfortable life with this hard-won money. Then I can provide the best for my family.
The third important thing is that I would like to work in an area that would help other people. The work in my mind is in fields such as the army, training or management. In such areas, I can help to develop the abilities of others and bring out their best. It would be a most satisfying job to help young people to become the best that they can be. When I become old, I would like to look back with a great sense of satisfaction that thousands of people have become better persons through my work.
I accept the idea that no one should make a choice of a job suddenly or quickly. He should decide what he wants to be in the long run. Then, he should decide how he works towards it. He should study the proper courses, read the books and speak to knowledgeable persons in that field before making a job choice. A good choice will most probably lead to a better life.
1.According to the passage, a good job choice probably makes people ________.
A.solve fewer problems
B.choose a good life
C.be good family members
D.provide hard things
2.The writer wants to tell us that everyone should ________.
A.become a knowledgeable person
B.join the army to become a better person
C.make preparations to find a satisfying job
D.help young people to choose an interesting job
3.What is the best title for the passage?
A.My Job Choice
B.My Favorite Job
C.My Comfortable Life
D.My Sense of Satisfaction
【答案】1.B 2.C 3.A

Passage 4
Dear Victor,
I have received your letter from school. I am glad to know that you are becoming responsible enough to make decisions about your career (职业).
You are now in the final year of college and are going to go into the society. You asked me to give you some advice. You know that we belong to different times, and my social life is different from yours. However, all I can say as advice is that you must choose a career wisely. First think about your interest. You can only succeed and feel happy when you do something you enjoy. You must get a job which not only provides you with some-thing useful, but also you are pleased with. Then, you must read a lot about the field you are interested in. Also, you should get to know the people who work in that field. When mind and heart work together, success is coming.
No career is more important than another. I think your interest may be in the field of making TV programs. You have good communication skills. You are always active in school plays and you’ve won many prizes in speech competitions. All these lead you to that direction. So a career in mass communication (大众传播) or TV and film production will bring luck to you. If you succeed in that field, you will become famous and rich.
You are old enough to think for yourself. Think a thousand times before making any final decision about your career.
Best wishes!
Your loving father

Cloze 3
“All work should be admired.” my father always told me. He wasn’t 58 , but he made a reasonable living. Thanks to his effort, I was able to go to an art college. However I wanted to do something different, something more interesting. I was 59 !
After graduation, I moved to New York to look for a designer (设计师) job. It was 60 and I only brought enough money to support myself for about a month. I wasn’t 61 at all—I was sure I’d find a fantastic job at once.
Within a few weeks, though, I found I had been 62 by every design office in the town. The rent (租金) of my 63 was almost gone and I hadn’t eaten for days. “How could I reach this point?” I wondered as I shook with cold in my thin jacket.
I was just about to give up 64 my dad called. He suggested that I get a job in a restaurant until something else came along. At first, I didn’t 65 to his advice because of pride. But I was cold and hungry. I didn’t want to go home feeling 66 and defeated (打败).
I entered an expensive-looking cafe near one of the design offices that had turned me away and asked the manager if they would need people to work there. She said they were shorthanded and 67 me a job right away.
68 , I found that I really enjoyed serving people. I started making big 69 right away. Later, the manager learned that I had a design 70 and asked me to design the cafe menus. That led to a part-time job at an advertising company.
I had never considered being 71 before but there I was. I finally got my dream design job, but that winter I learned not to make 72 about work.
