In the past, most people would ask their friends to take care of their pets. But now, you can also pay for in-home pet-sitting services. People who offer this kind of service are known as “pet sitters”. Cao Ting, 27, is a pet sitter from Chengdu, who has been working in the pet industry for two years.“I offer services like feeding, bathing, walking dogs, playing with the pets, and other things as requested by the owners, ” said Cao. Cao normally needs to take care of a pet for 40 minutes to an hour for one pet-sitting period. The cost of her service is related to many things such as the kind of pet, distance traveled and lasting time of care. Generally, it is from 50 to 70 yuan per session. Pet owners can contact Cao through pet care websites and different social media, like Xiaohongshu and Douyin. Cao acquires professional pet care skills through various methods, including attending online or offline pet care training courses, learning from other pet sitters and getting experience through practice. While caring for pets, Cao realized how unique each pet is and how important it is to deeply understand the pets' behaviors to develop safe, comfortable relationships with them. But being a pet sitter isn't always easy. In-home pet care means pet sitters will enter other people's houses when they are away, which may raise worries about property security.“Before starting the pet-sitting, I will ask the owner to lock away their valuable things and even set up cameras for further security, ” said Cao. In addition, pet sitters usually put their personal information on websites and social media in order to deal with some disputes directly. The income of pet sitters is still relatively unstable, and most pet sitters take this work as a part-time job. However, Cao remains hopeful about the future pet-sitting market.“People are starting to care more about their pets' health and happiness. There will be lots of new opportunities in the pet industry,” said Cao. 1.What does the passage tell us about Cao Ting?( ) A.She owns a pet shop in Chengdu.

B.Methods to solve property security and other disputes. C.Benefits which pet-sitting brings about to the pet owners. D.Solutions to deal with the costly pet-sitting services. 4.What is Cao's attitude towards the future of pet-sitting?( ) A.Disapproving. B.Doubtful. C.Optimistic. D.Indifferent. B篇 Many often find themselves considering jobs below their skill level in worsening employment markets. But it turns out that working in a job below your skill level harms your later chances of getting hired for a better-paying job more appropriate to your qualifications. Sociologist David Pedulla conducted a study to examine how jobs below a person's skill level affect future employability. He tailored 2,420 applications and submitted them to 1,210 job listings posted in five major cities across the U.S. He varied the applications by gender(性别), and also by the employment situation for the previous year. Then he used computer models to analyze and compare the results. The results show that applicants who were positioned as working below their skill level, regardless of gender， had the lowest chances of getting called for a job interview. These results should serve as a warning to anyone considering taking a job below their skill level. While it might pay the bills in the short term, it can significantly hammer one's ability to return to the relevant skill level and pay grade at a later date. Why might this be the case? Pedulla conducted a follow-up study with 903 employers. He asked them about their ideas of applicants with each kind of employment history, and how likely they would be to recommend each kind of candidate for an interview. The results show that employers believed that men who were employed in positions below their skill level were less dedicated and less competent than men in other employment situations. Those surveyed also believed that women working below their skill level were less competent than others, but did not believe them to be less dedicated. The results of studies suggest that work below skill level signals to employers men's incompetence and a lack of dedication. This is a disturbing reminder that the sword of gender bias(偏见) does in fact cut both ways. 1.Why do many people choose jobs below their skill level?( ) A.Because they fear bearing duties. B.Because they lack self-confidence. C.Because they face a tough economy. D.Because they desire better-paying jobs. 2.How do the researchers carry out the first study?( ) A.By conducting interviews. B.By researching examples. C.By making comparisons. D.By doing surveys. 3.Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “hammer” in Paragraph 3?( ) A.Ensure. B.Weaken. C.Test. D.Exercise. 4.What is the employers' idea according to the follow-up study?( ) A.Men are more likely to get promoted. B.Women are more devoted and capable. C.Women behave better in jobs below skill level. D.Men show aptitudes in work of the relevant level. 六、七选五 When interviewing for entry-level jobs without prior work experience, it's crucial to highlight your academic achievements and other life experiences.1.___ Therefore, showcasing your skills effectively can improve your chances of getting hired.
