Mapping out the future
Last summer, my parents and I took a drive to another state. Before we started on our road trip, we packed up the car with snacks, water, and music. Thankfully, we also had our GPS packed. A few hours into the trip, we took a wrong turn. But our trusty GPS pulled up a map of that area and got us back or track in no time. It made me wonder: Who creates maps in the first place? After some searching online I learned that the people who map out roads, mountains, oceans and other places around the world are called cartographers (制图师). I did some reading about the career. Here’s what I found:
What does a cartographer do?
Cartographers, also called mapmakers, study and interpret (诠释) geographic information. They use this information to make detailed maps of places around the world. Some of these maps are digital (数字的). They are often used in GPS systems. Other maps are printed in books. To do their work, cartographers put together information from many different places. They also use ground surveys. Some do ground surveys themselves. Most cartographers, however, depend on surveyors (测绘员) for this important information. Surveyors collect information for mapmaking. They measure land, air space, and water areas.
What does it take to be a cartographer?
Most cartographers have a bachelor (学士) degree. The degree might be in cartography (制图学), geography, or something similar. Students who are interested in becoming cartographers should learn as much as they can about geography. It also helps to take courses in maths and computer science.
With the rise of computer-based tools such as GPS systems, cartographers need stronger computer skills than they did in the past.
How much do cartographers make?
The average (平均) yearly salary (薪水) for cartographers is $54, 000. The lowest 10 percent earns (挣钱) less than $32, 000. The top 10 percent earns more than $92, 000.
________
In the U. S., job opportunities (机会) for cartographers are expected to grow. This is because of the increasing use of maps in the army. Also, digital maps have increasingly become a main part of many GPS systems and Web sites.
Based on what I’ve read about cartographers, I’d say that their work is very important to a lot of people. Next time a map keeps me from getting lost, I’ll be sure to thank a cartographer!
1.In Para 1, the author included his experience in order to ________.
A.prove that a GPS is only needed when driving to another place
B.show that it is important to pack snacks for a trip
C.provide a reason why a mapmaker’s work is important
D.show that the GPS is not always reliable (可靠的)
2.Surveyors can do all these following things except ________.
A.do some measuring B.do some mapping C.collect information D.do ground surveys
3.Which one can be put in the blank?
A.Will more cartographers be needed? B.Will the cartographers be replaced by robots?
C.Why is it hard for cartographers to find jobs? D.Why do cartographers make different maps?
4.The article would be most useful as a source for a student research project on ________.
A.career choosing for people interested in geography
B.career possibilities for people who dislike maths
C.famous explorers and mapmakers
D.necessary jobs for computermen

五、阅读表达。
Every year, wildfires(野火) destroy much forest land, homes are broken down, and thousands of people die. Smokejumpers(空降森林灭火员) are helping to stop this.
Smokejumpers are a special kind of firefighter. They jump from planes into areas that difficult to reach by car or on foot. They race to put out fires as fast as they can.
At a fire site, Smokejumpers first examine the land and decide how to fight the fire, their main goal is to stop fire from spreading. Using basic tools such as shovels and axes, smokejumpers clear land of burnable material like plants and other dry materials. They carry water with them too, but not much.
Although most smokejumpers are men, more women are joining. Most important are your weight and height. Smokejumpers in the U.S. for example, must be 54 to 91 kilograms, so they don’t get hurt when they land, or get blown by strong winds.
Smokejumpers must be able to live in the wilderness. In Russia, many smokejumpers know how to find food in the forest and even make simple furniture from trees.
The work is dangerous, the hours are long. But for these firefighters, smokejumpers isn’t just a job. Their love being able to jump out of planes, fight fires, and live in the forest. As 28-year-old Russian smokejumpers Alexi Tishin says,“This is the best job for the strong and brave.”

Dear Sir/Madam,
I’m Li Hua from Class One. I am writing to recommend my class to be the “Literary Class”,
There is a reading corner in our class, and there are different kinds of books so that students can read any time. There is also a wall newspaper. There are some calligraphy tablets there. We often read books three times a week and we often work group to discuss what we have read. There is also bookcrossing, which enables us to read different kinds of books.
Reading has a lot of benefits. It can open up our eyes because books are full of knowledge, and it makes us wiser in life.
Yours,
Li Hua
