As university can be a costly time, many of these students will want to look for part-time work. Here are 4 relatively easy jobs to bag yourself in London and ensure a bit of pocket money through your university experience. Waitressing It is not hard to find waitressing jobs since London has an abundance of pubs and eateries. Gumtree and Indeed are good places for such opportunities. Hospitality UK and Next door are other great websites. However, as many of these positions are advertised on the windows of restaurants and pubs, going inside and asking the staff there about the positions is a much better idea. This will also demonstrate you as active and confident. Rates are around £12--15 an hour. Mystery (神秘)shopping It may not have you laughing to the bank but it's extra pocket money. You go at any time as a regular customer and check out the services that the business provides. You report back to the client and they will pay for your purchases alongside £5 —10. Care Assistant For those who have a heart of gold and want to help, caring is the way. There's a huge demand for people to spend your free time with elderly people or help people with disabilities. It can be cooking meals or making sure they're taking their medicine on time. Receptionist If you're a good communicator and can act professionally, a receptionist might be a great opportunity for you, which will help you build administrative skills and experience. Receptionist jobs are available at doctors surgeries, dentists, gyms, large offices and more. 1. Which is the preferable way to land a waitressing job? A. Referring to Gumtree. B. Surfing Next door. C. Inquiring about positions in person, D. Contacting advertisement company. 2. What does a mystery shopper need to do? A. Amusing bank staff. B. Working at fixed times. C. Making purchases for clients, D. Feeding back service quality. 3. Which job helps develop your administrative skills? A. Waitressing. B. Mystery shopping. C. Care Assistant. D. Receptionist. B Recently, I had the unexpected pleasure of witnessing a basketball game played by local villagers in Guizhou province. Despite being amateurs, the teams played with professional-level format and refereeing (裁判), creating an intense atmosphere. The rescheduled final game of the Guizhou country basketball league, known as the “Village Basketball Association (VBA),” took place in Taipan Village. The game attracted a large audience, even on a weekday. The live stream of the game on social media platforms received 5.66 million views, generating buzz with hashtags like “what does ‘sold-out’ look like.” So, why are grassroots competitions like this more attractive to people like me than professional games? I believe it’s because sports arise from the grassroots level, allowing everyone to connect socially and find common ground. The VBA reminded me of a basketball game I experienced during my visit to Yangshuo in Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region. Bored of the scenic landscapes, I took a break and joined the locals and other visitors on the sidelines. Sitting on the bare ground, I felt so authentic and free that it released all my thoughts and emotions. Similarly, in the VBA game, the winning team received modest prizes like live ducks and cooked meat, showcasing the genuine and down-to-earth nature of the competition. I even wondered if the players were cooks or farmers who could prepare the food right off the court. The sudden popularity of the VBA can originate from the pervasive influence of social media and people’s desire to explore something different from their immediate surroundings. However, what truly resonates (共鸣) and has the potential for further growth is the pursuit (追求) of spiritual fulfillment. Grassroots sports offer an accessible and fulfilling experience, making them an ideal destination for individuals seeking a deeper connection. 4. What made the basketball game in Guizhou attractive? A. The professional-level players. B. The large number of viewers. C. The involvement of local villagers. D. The VBA offers better prizes. 5. How did the author feel while watching the basketball game in Yangshuo? A. A connection with other audience. B. A sense of authenticity and freedom. C. A sense of loneliness from the locals. D. A sense of boredom from the landscape. 6. According to the last paragraph, which has NOT contributed to the popularity of the VBA? A. The impact of social media. B. The attempt to achieve a spiritual satisfaction. C. The eagerness for the newness in their surroundings. D. The perfect opportunity to realize one’s sportsmanship. 7. What’s the best title of the passage? A. VBA—an Online Hit B. My Special Encounter with a VBA Game C. The Game for Prosperity and Happiness D. VBA—a Path to Grassroots’ Success C What may well be the oldest metal coins in the world have been identified at an ancient abandoned city known as Guanzhuang in China. Like many Bronze Age (青铜时代) coins from the region, they were cast in the shape of spades with finely carved handles. These ancient coins existed during an in-between period between barter (以物易物) and money, when coins were a novel concept, but everybody knew that agricultural tools were valuable. Reading about this incredible discovery, I kept thinking about the way modern people represent computer networks by describing machines as having “addresses”, like a house. We also talk about one computer using a “port” to send information to another computer, as if the data were a floating boat with destination. It’s as if we are in the Bronze Age of information technology, grasping desperately for real-world reference to transform our civilization. Now consider what happened to spade coins. Over centuries, metalworkers made these coins into more abstract shapes. Some became almost human figures. Others’ handles were reduced to small half-circles. As spade coins grew more abstract, people carved them with number values and the locations where they were made. They became more like modern coins, flat and covered in writing. Looking at one of these later pieces, you would have no idea that they were once intended to look like a spade. This makes me wonder if we will develop an entirely new set of symbols that allow us to interact with our digital information more smoothly. Taking spade coins as our guide, we can guess that far-future computer networks will no longer contain any recognizable references to houses. But they still might bring some of the ideas we associate with home to our mind. In fact, computer networks — if they still exist at all — are likely to be almost the indispensable part of our houses and cities, their sensors inset with walls and roads. Our network addresses might actually be the same as our street addresses. If climate change leads to floods, our mobile devices might look more like boats than phones, assisting us to land. My point is that the metaphors of the information age aren’t random. Mobile devices do offer us comfort after a long day at work. In some sense, our desire to settle on the shores of data lakes could change the way we understand home, as well as how we build computers. So as we cast our minds forward, we have to think about what new abstractions will go along with our information technology. Perhaps the one thing we count on is that humans will still appreciate the comforts of home. 8. Many Bronze Age coins were made into the shape of a spade because ___________. A. a lot of emphasis was put on agriculture B. this stylish design made the coins valuable C. these coins also served as agricultural tools D. the handles made the coins easily exchanged 9. Why does the author relate computers to spade coins? A. To show they both used to be new concepts when first invented. B. To explain abstract digital worlds are different from concrete coins. C. To suggest computers will experience dramatic changes as coins did. D. To highlight their same importance in our civilizational transformation. 10. What does the underlined word “indispensable” in Paragraph 5 probably mean? A. Flexible. B. Essential. C. Wasteful. D. Alternative. 11. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. What Coins and Computers Bring Us B. How Agriculture Loses to Digital Industry C. How Bronze Age Develops to Information Age D. What Ancient Money Tells Us About the Future D According to Oxford Dictionaries, morality means: “Principles concerning the distinction between right and wrong or good and bad behavior.” Though morality is a rather subjective subject, there are some principles that are universal across all cultures found by an Oxford University study: "help your family, help your group, return favors, be brave, obey superiors, divide resources fairly, and respect others, property”. The fact that these morals are found across 60 cultures from around the world demonstrates that morality, though subjective, is the cornerstone of keeping our societies together. Here are some reasons to be moral: without morality, a social life is almost impossible to maintain; having a good reputation and having a clear conscience is psychologically healthy; and most philosophies regard unselfish and principled behavior as important. There is no doubt that without morals, a society cannot function effectively. A confused situation would appear. According to the Society of Morality, “We are social animals, and the actions we take - the things we do and the things we don’t do - have consequences on our environments and on the others around us. As a result, we need to be able to govern our behavior in the near term so as not to injure ourselves or our community in the long term. This system of controlling our actions and our thoughts in order to operate in a community is what we often refer to as morality”. Therefore, we need a set of morals in order to operate within a social circle and a social environment. Acting immoral usually results in being excluded from social activities or being avoided by a society based on laws and cultural standards. Besides acting moral having a sociological need, it also has a psychological basis. Most people are concerned to some extent about their reputation. According to PsyPost, “A lot of economic models of human behavior assume that people are only rational (理性的)when they narrowly pursue their own self-interest, but history shows us that people are also tremendously concerned with being and appearing moral”. So, the fear of one’s reputation being damaged is often a strong motivator to be moral. And if someone has been immoral, most people go out of their way to make sure no one finds out, or to correct the behavior in order to not be caught. This goes in line with conscience as well. People generally feel in a better psychological state if they feel that their conscience is clean. A dirty conscience can result in a lack of sleep, anxiety, internal stress, and even illness. On the side of philosophy, the study of ethics (伦理)comes into play. Most philosophers agree that one should rationally choose a set of standards of behavior in order to function. Though there is moral relativism, there are universal anthropological (人类学的)morals, as mentioned in the introduction. By the nature of our societies and cultures, we choose what we believe is right and wrong. But surprising, this rational behavior comes to a general agreement on morals. So, there is a fine line between moral relativism and moral absolutism. But the main thing to take away from this discussion is that philosophers generally believe that each individual has the right to rationally come up with a set of ethics to live by, and that it is healthy to do so. 12. The author discusses morality in the first paragraph in order to_________. A. explain the relationship between morality and culture B. describe the moral rules found all around the world C. contrast the distinction between right and wrong D. introduce the definition, principles and reasons of morality 13. It can be inferred from the passage that________. A. acting moral allows us to fit into groups better B. morality brings the system of controlling behaviors C. acting immoral weakens laws and cultural standards D. Our controlled behaviors establish sets of morals 14. Which of the following is the psychological basis for acting moral? A. Pursuit of self-interest. B. A clean conscience. C. The concern about reputation. D. A dirty conscience. 15. What does the author advise us to do according to the last paragraph? A. To reach a general agreement on morals based on ethics. B. To carve one’s own sense of ethics to operate in this world. C. To choose between moral relativism and moral absolutism. D. To exclude philosophers’ beliefs and solutions as well. 第二节(共5小题; 每小题 2.5分, 满分 12.5分) 根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项. 选项中有两项为多余选项.

She suffered from alopecia areata (斑秃), a disease that causes the body to become allergic to its own hair. Her parents struggled to find help for their child, but Carleigh’s hair continued to fall out. Carleigh underwent a series of uncomfortable and time-consuming treatments, including having injections (注射) directly into the skin on her head. Through it all, Mom Courtney Edwards says she displayed wisdom beyond her years, but the hair loss caused a lot of unpleasant feelings for the child. She worried about being made fun of at school, or about someone pulling her cap off. She even started taking showers in the dark to avoid seeing her own reflection in the mirror. “That was hard, ”Courtney told Today. “As a 7-year-old, she had to have needles stuck into her head. She was brave. She just amazes me.” Over Thanksgiving weekend, the now-8-year-old’s condition went from bad to worse. In an online video, Courtney describes washing her daughter’s hair and having it just fall out in handfuls. In the video, Courtney explained that she and her husband had gone into school with Carleigh after the holiday break to speak directly to the children in her school. “She was so brave and said to her class, ‘I have alopecia areata,’” Courtney said. “‘It’s when my body is allergic to my hair. So please don’t be mean to me. And don’t make fun of me. ‘Then she broke clown and started weeping in my arms.” When Courtney’s video went viral online, she received support from people far and wide. A friend introduced Carleigh to another child who has the same condition, and the two girls got to know each other. The other girl encouraged Carleigh to take control of her condition by cutting off her hair completely. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 After some thought, Carleigh decided to go for it and asked her mother to record this moment. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After she was done, her father and brother surprised her by shaving their heads, too. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1~5 AACCB 6~10 ACCBC 11~15 ACBAA 16~20 CBACB 昭通一中 2023 年秋季学期高二年级人学考试 英语(A 卷) 注意事项: 1. 答题前, 考生务必用黑色碳素笔将自己的姓名、准考证号、考场号、座位号在答题卡上填写清楚. 2. 每小题选出答案后, 用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑. 如需改动,用橡皮擦干净后, 再选涂其他答案标号.在试题卷上作答无效. 3. 考试结束后, 请将本试卷和答题卡一并交回. 满分150分,考试用时120分钟. 第一部分 听力(共两节, 满分30分) 做题时, 先将答案标在试卷上. 录音内容结束后, 你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上. 第一节(共5小题; 每小题 1.5分, 满分 7.5分) 听下面5段对话. 每段对话后有一个小题, 从题中所给的 A、B、C 三个选项中选出最佳选项. 听完每段对话后, 你都有 10 秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题. 每段对话仅读一遍. 1.

Our class held a discussion about it last week. Opinions are mainly divided into two parts. Some support it because this kind of activity is good for the environment and can save energy. Besides, riding a bicycle is good for our health. We don’t have enough time to do exercise, so this is a good chance for us. But just opposite to the supporters, others think if the school is far away from home, it is a waste of time riding to school. All in all, in my opinion, if possible we should make every effort to improve our living conditions and to protect our Earth. So riding to work is a good choice if not in a hurry and if the weather is fine. 第二节(满分25分) 【47题答案】 【答案】One possible version: After some thought, Carleigh decided to go for it and asked her mother to record this moment. “My name is Carleigh,” the child said just before cutting her hair. “I have alopecia. I am ready to cut my hair. Because I am still beautiful.” As Courtney recorded the moment on her phone, Carleigh bravely cut off all of her remaining hair before allowing her father to shave the rest down to the skin. Her sisters and brothers can be seen in the video encouraging her and telling her how beautiful she looks. After she was done,her father and brother surprised her by shaving their heads, too. Now there were three bald heads in the family. Carleigh was thankful for her father and brother, as they made her feel better. The next day, Carleigh went back to school wearing her cap to cover her bald head, and nobody bullied her! In fact, her classmates were supportive, and her teacher even started wearing a cap too. Carleigh says her entire idea of beauty has shifted: True beauty means “bravery and love and kindness.” 1~5 AACCB 6~10 ACCBC 11~15 ACBAA 16~20 CBACB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
