(2024·广东省广州市三校高二上期末)
When it came time for me to look at options for postgraduate study,I decided to go abroad,initially looking at options in both Australia and the United States.
I decided on Australia finally after I spoke with friends,who had experience of studying at the University of Melbourne and living in the city.The people I knew described to me as a place where there were lots of people from all walks of life and cultural backgrounds,and where everyone was open-minded and there were discussions happening everywhere.I’m happy to say that ended up being my experience as well.
I joined Lion,one of Australasia’s largest food and drink companies,as part of their graduate program,which was a fantastic opportunity,because it gave me the opportunity to work in a variety of roles,and gain experience across a variety of functions.But the thing with Lion was that they were already a very established business;they already had their processes and structures in place.
When the opportunity came for me to join Culture Amp,I realized it was an opportunity to see a business grow and be part of that evolution.It was just what I wanted.That comes with its own challenges,as new problems appear you might be solving them from the very beginning,rather than having a framework to fall back on,but it also means there’s room to learn and experiment.It made me realize where my interests lie.Here in Australia,there’s a really high tolerance for change in your careers.I think it’s really easy for graduates to feel like they have to “jump” into a role,and then that’s it,forever.But the truth is that your career is a marathon.You can expect to change courses along the way,and allow your interests to open new doors.

(2024·山东省邹城市高二下期中)
In today’s digital age,where a vast ocean of information is just a click away,the question arises: can one learn too much? Given that no individual can grasp the entirety of human knowledge.However,there exists a phenomenon where excessive learning can lead to inaction,a state of being overwhelmed by too much information.
Consider a situation where you’re eager to achieve a particular goal.You begin by conducting extensive research,diving deep into the subject.As you absorb more information,it paradoxically (矛盾地) feels like your understanding weakens.Each new concept or strategy reveals further layers,making the goal seem more complex and out of reach.
This situation is a common trap: the endless pursuit of more information.Although gaining comprehensive knowledge is valuable,that is to say there’s nothing wrong with learning a lot,issues arise when this pursuit obstructs practical application.If learning continuously prevents you from starting,you’ll find yourself stuck,unable to achieve your desired outcomes.
An alternative and more effective approach to achieving goals is to strike a balance between learning and doing.Gather essential information,then transition into action swiftly,even if you feel somewhat unprepared.This is often the best way to learn,as hands-on experience provides insights that theoretical knowledge alone cannot.
The comparison with a baby learning to walk is a good example here.A baby doesn’t learn to walk by sitting and analyzing the process.Instead,it learns by attempting to walk,falling,and then understanding from each fall what works and what doesn’t.Through repeated effort,walking is eventually mastered.This method is applicable to goal achievement too.By engaging in action,learning from the outcomes,and adjusting accordingly,you gradually move closer to your goals.
In summary,while the pursuit of knowledge is valuable,it’s crucial not to let it become a barrier to action.Learning should be a stepping stone to doing,not an end in itself.It’s through the interplay of gathering knowledge and applying it that we can truly progress towards our ambitions.
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。在数字时代,过量的信息会造成学习停滞的问题,因此,在学习过程中,实践经验能帮助我们更全面的理解学习的知识,从而实现目标。
5.What stops people from achieving the goal?
A.The distraction caused by unrelated tasks.
B.The inability to find relevant information.
C.The confusion caused by the information.
D.The desire to learn basic concept or strategy.
答案:C
解析:细节理解题。根据文章第一段最后一句可知,数字时代给学习提供太多的信息,这些信息给人们带来困惑,由此可知,是这些信息带来的困惑阻止了人们达到学习的目标。故选C项。
6.What does the author try to advocate in Paragraphs 3&4?
A.Sticking to continuous learning.
B.Taking practical action without delay.
C.Gaining as much knowledge as possible.
D.Prioritizing theoretical knowledge in study.
答案:B
解析:推理判断题。根据文章第三段内容可知,作者认为学习很多知识并没有错,但当这种追求阻碍了实际应用时,就出现了问题。结合第四段中的“An alternative and more effective approach to achieving goals is to strike a balance between learning and doing.”可知,在学习与实践之间要寻求一种平衡,由此可推断,作者是建议人们要立刻采取实际行动。故选B项。
7.Why is the example “baby learning to walk” mentioned in Paragraph 5?
A.To compare different learning styles.
B.To show the importance of making mistakes.
C.To emphasize the need for parental guidance.
D.To illustrate learning through action and experience.
答案:D
解析:推理判断题。根据第四段中“This is often the best way to learn,as hands-on experience provides insights that theoretical knowledge alone cannot.”可知,学习的最好方法是通过实践去积累经验,结合第五段可知,婴儿是通过不断的实践学习走路,在行动中不断地积累经验。由此可知,第五段通过“婴儿学习走路”的例子来解释通过行动和经验来学习这个观点。故选D项。
8.What makes the best title for the passage?
A.The Harmony of Learning and Doing
B.The Process of Accessing Information
C.The Pursuit of Advanced Knowledge
D.The significance of Hands-on Experience
答案:A
解析:标题归纳题。根据文章全文,尤其是最后一段内容可知,在追求知识价值时,不能将其称为行动的障碍。由此可知,本文介绍在学习过程中,应将信息和实践相结合,这样能更好地实现目标,所以题目“学与做的和谐”与本文主旨相符。故选A项。

Shop around

Think about what you need
