Job hunting is an important step for many people after school or when changing careers. It requires preparation, patience and the right skills to stand out from other applicants. With careful planning, you can increase your chances of getting your dream job.
First, knowing your strengths is key. Think about your skills, hobbies and past experiences—like volunteer work or school projects. For example, if you’re good at communicating with others, jobs in customer service or education might be a good fit. Second, prepare a clear resume. A resume should briefly introduce your personal information, skills and experiences. Avoid long paragraphs; keep it simple and easy to read. Third, practice for interviews. Many employers ask common questions like “Why do you want this job?” or “What can you bring to our company?” Practicing answers with friends or family helps you feel more confident.
Remember, job hunting often takes time. Don’t get discouraged if you don’t get an offer right away. Learn from each experience—if you don’t get a job, think about what you can improve next time. Being honest and polite during the process also leaves a good impression on employers.
26. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. How to write a perfect resume for a new job
B. Tips to help people succeed in job hunting
C. Why job hunting is always very easy
D. How to get a job without any preparation
27. According to the passage what should you do first for job hunting?
A. Ask friends to find a job for you
B. Practice answering interview questions
C. Understand your own strengths
D. Send resumes to as many companies as possible
28. What does the passage tell us about job hunting?
A. It doesn’t need any planning or preparation
B. Being honest and polite helps make a good impression
C. You will get a job offer immediately if you try
D. Long and complicated resumes are more popular
B
There are a lot of reasons to go out in nature to look around. It makes us feel happy and helps us know about plants and animals.
For most scientists, however, nature gives out something more—the ideas to improve people’s life. They study bees to work out how small robots might “talk” to report the weather. They look at geckos’ (壁虎的) feet to find how to make tape. They study fruit flies to help doctors save people’s lives.
“There are so many fun ways that animals develop to solve problems, and some of them are ones we never think of,” says Lisa Manning, a professor of the bioinspired (生物启发的) center. Zhenyu Gan is a robot engineer in the center. He makes robots with four legs or more, instead of robots with wheels.
To find out how legged robots could stand or walk, Gan looks to animals such as horses and mice. “The first thing we have to understand is how they move.” Gan says.
“Usually, robots with two legs like people are clumsy. Just think about how a baby learns to stand and walk. But my robots have four legs or more, just like horses, making the robots walk or run easily and fast.” says Gan.
Gan’s robots have lots of uses. They can explore the moon. Hospitals use doglike robots to work with doctors. Police use legged robots to search fallen buildings for missing people.
29. According to the passage, when going out in nature, a group of scientists may ________.
A build houses to protect animals B. enjoy the beautiful view around
C. play games with animals D. study how birds can fly to invent planes
30. Gan may invent the following robots except ________.
A. B. C. D.
31. What is the purpose of writing this passage?
A. To introduce changes of bioinspired ideas.
B. To tell us it’s hard to study animals.
C. To show us how animal ways help in our lives.
D. To find out different reasons to look at nature.
C
Last spring, my neighbor Donna and I, both in our seventies, spent several hours in the glorious sunshine enjoying the new season. When it was time to sit down and relax, Donna pulled out her red metal chair from her garage, and I sat on an overturned plastic bucket (桶). It was fun to catch up on the news that we had missed during the long winter indoors.
However, over the next few days, it turned out that we needed more than a chair and a bucket which were not quite comfortable. Donna decided we needed a bench. After dismissing unsuitable options from local stores, she found a perfect one online. The next day it arrived. Excitedly, she opened the box and started putting it together. We proudly high-fived each other as the pieces joined up and the bench started to look like one. After a few minutes’ assistance from a neighbour, it was complete. What’s more, it was the perfect fit for two 70-somethings to carry on late afternoon chats.
Soon, the bench attracted other neighbors. One day, someone called out from the sidewalk, “What do you do on that bench?” Quick-thinking Donna called back, “It’s our ‘Thinking Bench’! We think about important things happening in our lives.” Then, the name gradually evolved—after one neighbor sat alone deep in thought, he declared it a “Decision-Making Bench”; another time, when Donna was caught napping, she insisted she was “meditating (冥想)”, adding yet another name.
Last fall, with the temperature falling, we came to the end of sitting outdoors. Were we faced with one dilemma-what to do about it in the winter? Well, we sat down and thought and meditated and decided to put it in Donna’s garage for the winter.
When I glimpsed it a few times over the next months, the bench sat lonely, holding empty flower pots and some flat, old boxes. But now, after a long winter, spring flowers are ready to bloom in the warm sunshine, and we neighbours are ready to welcome “The Bench” back into our lives.
32. Donna decided to replace the chair and bucket to ________.
A. lighten the carrying load B. attract more neighbours
C. get better seating for chats D. adapt to warmer weather
33. How did the bench get its various names?
A. From items placed on it. B. From seasonal discussions.
C. From users’ activities on it. D. From Donna’s creative ideas.
34. Why are pots and boxes mentioned in the last paragraph?
A. To suggest the flowers would soon be planted.
B. To show the bench was not serving its purpose.
C. To describe the bench’s practical use in winter.
D. To explain why the bench needed winter storage.
35. What does “The Bench” represent by the story’s end?
A. A symbol of community bonds. B. A solution to the aging problem.
C. A reminder of the past summer. D. A memory of a valued online order.

Ⅱ.Multiple Choice(15%)
1. When the doctor arrived, the pet ________.
A. has died B. had died C. had dead D. had been dead
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:当医生赶到时,这只宠物已经死了。
考查时态用法。根据“When the doctor arrived”可知,“宠物死亡”发生在“医生赶到”之前,是“过去的过去”,应用过去完成时;die是短暂性动词,此处强调动作已完成,had died符合语境。故选B。
2. The meeting ________ for 20 minutes when Mr. Wang ________ to school.
A. has been on; got B. had been on; got
C. had been on; arrived D. had begun; arrived
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:当王先生到学校时,会议已经进行了20分钟。
考查时态和动词辨析。主句动作“会议进行”在从句动作“到达”之前发生,且持续一段时间,故用过去完成时had been on(be on为延续性短语,可与时间段连用),排除AD选项;get和arrive都可以表示“到达”,但是根据空后的to可知,应该用get,get to表示“到达”。故选B。
3. By midnight, I ________ the novel for six hours. I finally ________ the novel last night.
A. had read; finished B. was reading; have finished
C. read; have finished D. have read; finished
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:到午夜为止,我已经读了这本小说六个小时。我昨晚终于读完了这本小说。
考查动词时态,根据“By midnight, I…the novel for six hours. I finally…the novel last night.”可知,第一空“by midnight”表示过去的时间点,强调在该时间点之前已持续六小时,需用过去完成时had read;第二空“last night”为明确过去时间,需用一般过去时finished。故选A。
4. Hearing the good news that she won first prize, Lily ________ an ________ voice.
A. shouted with; exciting B. has shouted in; excited
C. shouted in; excited D. had shouted with; exciting
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:听到她获得一等奖的好消息,莉莉用兴奋的声音大喊。
考查动词时态、动词短语辨析和形容词辨析。shouted with带着……大喊;has shouted in已经用……大喊(现在完成时);exciting令人兴奋的;excited感到兴奋的;shouted in用……大喊;had shouted with曾带着……大喊(过去完成时)。根据句意,“听到获奖消息”与“呼喊”为同时发生的瞬间动作,需用一般过去时,排除B和D。表达“以……声音呼喊”需用介词in(shout in a...voice)。修饰“voice”(声音)需用excited(感到兴奋的),表示声音充满兴奋感,而“exciting”意为“令人兴奋的”,常用于修饰事物本身。故选C。
5. Tom ________ a pilot since he was a little boy, and now his dream has finally come true.
A. has hoped to become B. has hoped becoming
C. hoped to become D. had hoped becoming
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:汤姆从小就希望成为一名飞行员,现在他的梦想终于实现了。
考查谓语动词时态和非谓语动词。since引导的时间状语表示动作从过去持续到现在,需用现在完成时,结构为has/have+过去分词,排除选项C和D;hope to do sth.“希望做某事”,所以hope后接不定式to do,排除选项B。故选A。
6. According to a report, raising a child in the city ________ a family about HK$5.5 million from a child’s birth to college graduation.
A. spends B. costs C. takes D. pays
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:根据一份报告,在城市抚养一个孩子从出生到大学毕业大约花费一个家庭550万港币。
考查动词词义辨析。spends花费,主语是人,花费金钱或时间;costs花费,主语是物/事,花费金钱;takes花费,常用it作主语,花费时间;pays支付,主语是人,常与for搭配,支付金钱。句子的主语是“raising a child in the city”,这是一个“事”,并非“人”,且指花费金钱,用costs。故选B。
7. The bag over there is so big that I suppose it ________ nearly sixty kilos.
A. weighs B. is weighed C. weighing D. weighed
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:那边的袋子那么大,我想它差不多有六十公斤重。
考查动词weigh的用法和时态。weighs有……重,一般现在时第三人称单数形式;is weighed被称重,被动语态;weighing有……重,现在分词;weighed有……重,过去式。weigh表示重量时,是物体本身的属性,用主动语态;根据“The bag over there is so big”可知,时态为一般现在时。主语it是第三人称单数,因此动词用一般现在时第三人称单数形式weighs。故选A。
8. The doctor led us ________ more attention to ________ the sick pigs away from us.
A. to pay; keep B. to paying; keeping C. to pay; keeping D. to paying; keep
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:医生指导我们要多留意,把生病的猪和我们隔离。
考查非谓语动词。根据“The doctor led us...more attention to...the sick pigs away from us.”可知,led是动词lead的过去式,lead sb. to do sth.是常用搭配,意为“指导某人做某事”,不定式作宾语补足语,故空一用to pay;pay attention to中的to是介词,后接动名词形式,故空二用keeping。故选C。
9. ________ what we eat for breakfast has a great effect on our health, many students skip breakfast.
A. Though B. Despite of C. In spite of D. In despite of
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:尽管早餐吃什么对我们的健康有很大影响,但许多学生不吃早餐。
考查让步状语从句。Though虽然,连词,可引导从句;Despite of形式错误,正确形式应为despite“即使;尽管”,介词;In spite of为“尽管”,介词短语,后需接名词或名词短语,不能直接引导从句;In despite of形式错误,不存在该短语。空格后“what we eat for breakfast has a great effect on our health”为完整的句子,应用“Though”引导让步状语从句。故选A。
10. —Last Sunday Fred went to Ann’s birthday party.
—________. And ________.
A. So did he, so did I B. So he did, so I did
C. So did he, so I did D. So he did, so did I
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:——上星期天Fred去参加了Ann的生日派对。——他确实去了。我也去了。
考查so的倒装结构。So+主语+助动词:认同前文事实(“确实如此”),与前文主语一致;So+助动词+主语:表示“某人也做了同样的事”,与前文主语不同。第一空:前文说“上周日Fred去了Ann的生日派对”,答句第一部分是对这个事实的确认(“他确实去了”),主语仍为he(指代Fred),符合“ So+主语+助动词”结构,故填So he did。第二空:后文用“And”连接,表递进,意为“我也去了”,主语变为I(与前文Fred不同),符合“ So+助动词+主语”结构,故填so did I。故选D。
11. —I have never visited a paper factory.
—________.
A. So have I B. So I have C. Neither have I D. I haven’t nor
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——我从未参观过造纸厂。——我也没有。
考查倒装句。根据“I have never visited a paper factory.”可知,此处应回应我也没有参观过造纸厂,应用neither引导的倒装结构,其构成为“Neither+助动词+主语”表示“某人也不”。故选C。
12. —David has made great progress recently. — , and .
A. So he has; so you have B. So he has; so have you
C. So has he; so have you D. So has he; so you have

13. Mary never does any reading in the evening, ________.
A. so does John B. John does neither C. John does too D. nor does John
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:玛丽晚上从不阅读。约翰也不读。
考查倒装句用法。so does John约翰也是,表肯定;John does neither表述错误,无此用法;John does too约翰也一样,表肯定;nor does John约翰也不,表否定。根据“Mary never does any reading”可知,这里是对否定情况的呼应,“nor+助动词+主语”是表示“……也不”的倒装结构,nor does John符合语境。故选D。
14. It is well known that the parents in that family ________ their children, especially when it comes to setting clear boundaries for behavior and study habits.

Job hunting is an important step for many people after school or when changing careers. It requires preparation, patience and the right skills to stand out from other applicants. With careful planning, you can increase your chances of getting your dream job.
First, knowing your strengths is key. Think about your skills, hobbies and past experiences—like volunteer work or school projects. For example, if you’re good at communicating with others, jobs in customer service or education might be a good fit. Second, prepare a clear resume. A resume should briefly introduce your personal information, skills and experiences. Avoid long paragraphs; keep it simple and easy to read. Third, practice for interviews. Many employers ask common questions like “Why do you want this job?” or “What can you bring to our company?” Practicing answers with friends or family helps you feel more confident.
Remember, job hunting often takes time. Don’t get discouraged if you don’t get an offer right away. Learn from each experience—if you don’t get a job, think about what you can improve next time. Being honest and polite during the process also leaves a good impression on employers.
26. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. How to write a perfect resume for a new job
B. Tips to help people succeed in job hunting

There are a lot of reasons to go out in nature to look around. It makes us feel happy and helps us know about plants and animals.
For most scientists, however, nature gives out something more—the ideas to improve people’s life. They study bees to work out how small robots might “talk” to report the weather. They look at geckos’ (壁虎的) feet to find how to make tape. They study fruit flies to help doctors save people’s lives.
“There are so many fun ways that animals develop to solve problems, and some of them are ones we never think of,” says Lisa Manning, a professor of the bioinspired (生物启发的) center. Zhenyu Gan is a robot engineer in the center. He makes robots with four legs or more, instead of robots with wheels.
To find out how legged robots could stand or walk, Gan looks to animals such as horses and mice. “The first thing we have to understand is how they move.” Gan says.
“Usually, robots with two legs like people are clumsy. Just think about how a baby learns to stand and walk. But my robots have four legs or more, just like horses, making the robots walk or run easily and fast.” says Gan.
Gan’s robots have lots of uses. They can explore the moon. Hospitals use doglike robots to work with doctors. Police use legged robots to search fallen buildings for missing people.
29. According to the passage, when going out in nature, a group of scientists may ________.
A. build houses to protect animals B. enjoy the beautiful view around
C. play games with animals D. study how birds can fly to invent planes
30. Gan may invent the following robots except ________.
A. B. C. D.
31. What is the purpose of writing this passage?
A. To introduce changes of bioinspired ideas.
B. To tell us it’s hard to study animals.
C. To show us how animal ways help in our lives.
D. To find out different reasons to look at nature.

C
Last spring, my neighbor Donna and I, both in our seventies, spent several hours in the glorious sunshine enjoying the new season. When it was time to sit down and relax, Donna pulled out her red metal chair from her garage, and I sat on an overturned plastic bucket (桶). It was fun to catch up on the news that we had missed during the long winter indoors.
However, over the next few days, it turned out that we needed more than a chair and a bucket which were not quite comfortable. Donna decided we needed a bench. After dismissing unsuitable options from local stores, she found a perfect one online. The next day it arrived. Excitedly, she opened the box and started putting it together. We proudly high-fived each other as the pieces joined up and the bench started to look like one. After a few minutes’ assistance from a neighbour, it was complete. What’s more, it was the perfect fit for two 70-somethings to carry on late afternoon chats.
Soon, the bench attracted other neighbors. One day, someone called out from the sidewalk, “What do you do on that bench?” Quick-thinking Donna called back, “It’s our ‘Thinking Bench’! We think about important things happening in our lives.” Then, the name gradually evolved—after one neighbor sat alone deep in thought, he declared it a “Decision-Making Bench”; another time, when Donna was caught napping, she insisted she was “meditating (冥想)”, adding yet another name.
Last fall, with the temperature falling, we came to the end of sitting outdoors. Were we faced with one dilemma-what to do about it in the winter? Well, we sat down and thought and meditated and decided to put it in Donna’s garage for the winter.
When I glimpsed it a few times over the next months, the bench sat lonely, holding empty flower pots and some flat, old boxes. But now, after a long winter, spring flowers are ready to bloom in the warm sunshine, and we neighbours are ready to welcome “The Bench” back into our lives.
32. Donna decided to replace the chair and bucket to ________.
A. lighten the carrying load B. attract more neighbours
C. get better seating for chats D. adapt to warmer weather
33. How did the bench get its various names?
A. From items placed on it. B. From seasonal discussions.
C. From users’ activities on it. D. From Donna’s creative ideas.
34. Why are pots and boxes mentioned in the last paragraph?
A. To suggest the flowers would soon be planted.
B. To show the bench was not serving its purpose.
C. To describe the bench’s practical use in winter.
D. To explain why the bench needed winter storage.
35. What does “The Bench” represent by the story’s end?
A. A symbol of community bonds. B. A solution to the aging problem.
C. A reminder of the past summer. D. A memory of a valued online order.
