选择性必修4　UNIT 3课时作业(一)主题阅读集群训练 Ⅰ.阅读理解 A (2025·延边模拟)When Jenny Streete began caring for older people more than 50 years ago, prejudice was part of her everyday working life.Streete, who grew up in Jamaica and came to England in 1967, had a way of dealing with it：“Just put a smile on your face，” she says.“If you let bad words into your brain, it will only cause you more harm.” The 81­year­old remembers one instance of abuse. Streete says, “The sister who was managing the ward (病房) tried to calm a woman down.But I told the sister to let her say what she has to say.I don't mind.” The next night, Streete noticed the woman's blanket had fallen off.She replaced it, telling the patient in a low voice exactly what she was doing and why.The same thing happened the next night, and the next.“But then, the night that I was off duty, that same woman asked the sister, ‘Where is that black lady? I don't want anyone else to look after me while she is on duty.She was so kind.’” Brought up by her grandparents, Streete found her vocation after a mystery illness that nearly killed her, and left her with permanently damaged vision.She got better, she says, because of “loving care and tenderness”．When she came to England, she was determined to give that care to others. And Streete hopes to carry on caring for older people as long as possible — although, she says, her children are urging her to retire.She currently works two nights a week in an end­of­life ward which provides specialist nursing.Many of the people she looks after are now a similar age to her. Her preference for night shifts hasn't changed, either.She frequently stays on after her shift is finished, to spend time with residents. She urges those considering a career in care to think hard about why they're choosing it.“Sometimes, people are not happy because they don't want to do the job — they have to do it, because there is no other way.Wanting to do it is very different from having to do it.” But the key quality a care worker needs, she says, is patience. “Some people like to do everything quick­quick­quick, but you have to take your time with residents.I just try to treat everybody the way I would like to be treated.” 1．What do we know about Jenny Streete?

B (2025·邵阳模拟)I've chatted with many unhappy employees, finding one big reason is that they aren't aware of what will truly matter to them when choosing a job.Salaries and promotions are important, but not enough.To identify a satisfying job, people should be thinking about office morale and doing work that is interesting and fun. My colleague Kaitlin Woolley and I asked a large group of employees what made them like their present jobs, and what factors would cause them to like future jobs. Unsurprisingly, we found promotions and raises were important for people both in their current job and in applying for future jobs.What was interesting, though, was that the majority cared a lot about present benefits (such as doing something with the people you like) in their current job, but they expected not to care very much about those things in their future jobs. A basic insight from behavioral science is that people care about the present mainly in the present, but don't really care about it in advance.This natural human tendency has important consequences.They often choose the wrong job or project and end up regretting it.But keep in mind that if there is one thing that is certain about the future, it is that it will one day be the present. How can we use insights from behavioral science to increase job satisfaction? We have developed a three­step approach.First, make sure you choose a career that you enjoy pursuing, one that offers present benefits to you.Second, add present benefits to your working hours.Third, bring to mind those present benefits that do exist at your work.You can motivate yourself to engage in your work by directing attention to the positive aspects of your tasks. The bottom line is that job satisfaction is too rare, and the lack of it is hurting us emotionally and financially.Many years of research have taught us that people feel energized when the process of doing something becomes the goal of doing it.We can apply this principle to increase satisfaction at work by selecting satisfying jobs. 5．What's the function of paragraph 1? A．Giving an example.　B．Making comparisons. C．Proposing a definition. D．Presenting an argument. 6．How did the author feel about the findings? A．There is something surprising. B．There is something expected. C．There is something disappointing. D．There is something satisfying. 7．What can we infer from the last paragraph? A．It is impossible to find job satisfaction at work. B．An unpleasant boss might make you feel upset. C．People unsatisfied with their work may get into debt. D．Selecting a satisfying job can not increase job satisfaction. 8．What is the text mainly about? A．Telling how to choose a satisfying job. B．Describing the present situations of working. C．Introducing the knowledge of behavioral science. D．Explaining the differences between the current and future jobs. Ⅱ.阅读七选五精品课件·名师析题 (2025·金丽衢联考)Looking for a job where you can make a difference?
