The company has been one of the world’s most popular toy-makers and last year saw its fastest sales growth in five years. The “dream job” in Denmark led to the opportunity to be a judge on a TV show in the US. As a child growing up in a village near Glasgow, she never dreamed of being a fashion designer or a toy designer. She was not a Lego fan as a child. “I played with Lego with my brother when we were kids,” she said. “When we were really little, we had the big box of bricks (积木). But as I got a little bit older, I fell out of Lego. I felt there wasn’t anything interesting for me.” “It wasn’t until I joined the company that I really got back into it. But we take that into account and think how we can create Lego experiences for kids, adults, and everyone over the world, so that everyone can find something that is related to them. Every time I got a project, I would always change it to something fun, playful and creative. I always loved being creative and also really loved maths.” And her advice to new Lego designers was to get building. “Creativity is the key and being hands-on with the bricks,” she said. “Whenever you can get ideas out, just do it. Whenever you can get your hands on the bricks, build, build, build.” “And if you are picking your education, I think certainly pick something that is based on design. The more creative, the better and we are open to everyone.” 1．What do we know about Amy? ______ A．She is a judge in a court. B．She is a senior sales manager. C．She has done a great job at Lego. D．She used to be a fashion designer. 2．What do the underlined words “fell out of” in Paragraph 3 mean? ______ A．Gave up. B．Got into. C．Turned out. D．Went for. 3．What can be inferred from Amy’s advice to the new designers? ______ A．The more creative, the better. B．Actions speak louder than words. C．The key to success is preparation. D．Both action and creativity are important. 4．Which of the following best describes Amy as a designer? ______ A．Average. B．Experienced. C．Negative. D．Reasonable. B I walked into my adviser’s office, filled up with disappointment and confusion. The recent career workshop where I was given advice about following my dream didn’t work for me again. To become a professor of biology had been my dream for 22 years. However, after about 4 years in a program, I decided I did not want to go after a career in research after all. I began to attend career workshops, hoping they would have the magical answers I needed, but without success. Finally, I went to my adviser. After listening to my declaim, he calmly told me that instead of focusing on finding a dream job, I should think about what I was good at and what made me happy at least 80% of the time. He assured me there was seldom a perfect job and every job had its ugly bits. He also said it was important to find a job I was good at. I was relieved to finally have helpful and practical advice. But I discovered that finding common ground between what I liked and what I was good at was not easy. I loved diving, but the physical demands were challenging. I was good at teaching, as evidenced by my friends before and favorable reviews when I was a teaching assistant, but I didn’t like repeating the same content every year. Through my teaching experience, however, I also learned that I loved telling stories about science. Maybe science communication would offer what I was looking for. To test the waters, during my “spare time” I started a blog about the history of scientific discoveries. I found that I loved the freedom to choose what to write about. As for whether I was any good at it, the signs were promising. My writing got noticed, eventually by people at my institution, and I was given chances to write press releases and stories for the university’s news office. After 3 years of writing, I was offered a position as a science writer. It was nothing like my childhood dream. But I was happy—more than 80% of the time. 5．Why was the author disappointed and confused? A．His life-long dream to be a professor didn’t come true. B．The advice he received from the workshop had no use. C．He didn’t learn the magic from the workshop successfully. D．The program he did wasted him four years of time. 6．What did the author think of the adviser’s suggestion? A．It was temporarily useful. B．It sounded quite average. C．It seemed challenging. D．It was of use to practice. 7．What can we infer about the author from the fourth paragraph? A．He didn’t like biology. B．He didn’t have a strong body. C．He had no interest in teaching. D．He had good communication skills. 8．What kind of person is the author? A．Active and flexible. B．Focused and humorous. C．Determined and easy-going. D．Hard-working and independent. 二、语法填空：（共10小题，每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 High school is a world full of 1.___________ (challenge)，such as new subjects，new experiences and new ways of 2.____________ (think)．If you work hard to get 3. the challenges，you have the opportunity 4.___________ (acquire) great knowledge and enjoy personal growth.

But as I got a little bit older, I fell out of Lego. I felt there wasn’t anything interesting for me.(当我们真的很小的时候，我们有一大盒积木。但当我长大一点时，我fell out of乐高玩具。我觉得对我来说没有什么有趣的事情。)”可知，对于艾米来说不论是积木还是乐高都不能引起她的兴趣，所以艾米在孩童时代对乐高没有兴趣，可得出她放弃了乐高，故划线词与give up为同义词。故选A。 3． 【答案】D 【解析】推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中““Creativity is the key and being hands-on with the bricks,” she said. “Whenever you can get ideas out, just do it. Whenever you can get your hands on the bricks, build, build, build.”(她说：“创造力是关键，要亲自动手。”“只要你能想到点子，就去做。只要你能拿到积木，就盖，盖，盖。”)”可知，此处艾米强调对于新的设计者，实际行动和创造力都很重要。故选D。 4． 【答案】B 【解析】推理判断题。根据第一段中“Amy, a senior design manager at Lego, now runs a team of 10 designers at Lego’s headquarters in Denmark. The company has been one of the world’s most popular toy-makers and last year saw its fastest sales growth in five years.(艾米是乐高的高级设计经理，现在在丹麦的乐高总部管理着一个由10名设计师组成的团队。该公司一直是世界上最受欢迎的玩具制造商之一，去年的销售额增长是五年来最快的。)”以及最后一段中““And if you are picking your education, I think certainly pick something that is based on design. The more creative, the better and we are open to everyone.”(“如果你要选择你的教育，我认为肯定要选择基于设计的东西。越有创意越好，我们对所有人都开放。”)”可知，艾米在乐高设计方面是取得了不俗的成绩，同时结合她对新设计者提出的建议，可以推断她是经验丰富的。故选B。 B I walked into my adviser’s office, filled up with disappointment and confusion. The recent career workshop where I was given advice about following my dream didn’t work for me again. To become a professor of biology had been my dream for 22 years.

D．Hard-working and independent. 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者对自己的事业方向感到迷茫和困惑，在导师的建议下，作者开始寻找自己擅长什么，以及至少80%的时间可以让自己快乐的事情。 5． 【答案】B 【解析】细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“The recent career workshop where I was given advice about following my dream didn’t work for me again.(在最近的职业研讨会上，我得到了关于追随梦想的建议，但这次对我不起作用)”可知，作者再一次从职业座谈会上得到了对他无用的建议，因此作者感到失望和迷茫。故选B。 6． 【答案】D 【解析】细节理解题。根据第四段第一句“I was relieved to finally have helpful and practical advice.(终于有了有用而实用的建议，我松了一口气)”可知，作者认为导师的建议是有用的。故选D。 7． 【答案】C 【解析】推理判断题。根据第四段第四句“I was good at teaching, as evidenced by my friends before and favorable reviews when I was a teaching assistant, but I didn’t like repeating the same content every year.(我很擅长教学，这是我以前的朋友和我做助教时的好评证明，但我不喜欢每年都重复同样的内容)”可推知，作者对教学不感兴趣。故选C。 8． 【答案】A 【解析】推理判断题。通读全文尤其是最后一段“To test the waters, during my “spare time” I started a blog about the history of scientific discoveries. I found that I loved the freedom to choose what to write about. As for whether I was any good at it, the signs were promising. My writing got noticed, eventually by people at my institution, and I was given chances to write press releases and stories for the university’s news office. After 3 years of writing, I was offered a position as a science writer. It was nothing like my childhood dream. But I was happy—more than 80% of the time.(为了试水，我在“业余时间”开了一个关于科学发现历史的博客。我发现我喜欢选择写作内容的自由。至于我是否擅长这项工作，种种迹象表明我很有希望。我的写作得到了注意，最终得到了我所在机构的人的注意，我有机会为大学的新闻办公室撰写新闻稿和故事。写了3年之后，我得到了一个科普作家的职位。这一点也不像我儿时的梦想。但我很快乐——80%以上的时间都很快乐)”可知，作者不断尝试不同的职业，并根据导师的建议不断进行调整，最终找到了适合自己的职业。由此可推知，作者是一个积极且会变通的人。故选A。 二、语法填空：（共10小题，每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 High school is a world full of 1.___________ (challenge)，such as new subjects，new experiences and new ways of 2.____________ (think)．If you work hard to get 3. the challenges，you have the opportunity 4.___________ (acquire) great knowledge and enjoy personal growth.
