课时作业(18) Unit 5 Period 2（Word练习）-【金榜题名】2025-2026学年高二英语选择性必修第四册高中同步学案（人教版）

课时作业(十八)　Unit 5　Period 2 Ⅰ.阅读理解 Children are now more likely greedy for a job in social media or gaming than traditional careers. According to a new survey, many children from 7 to 11 are looking at modern technology when they think about future jobs, rather than professions such as the police officer or doctor. The survey involved 13，000 UK primary school children. They were asked to draw pictures of the job they wanted to do when they grow up and then tell the reasons. It concluded that children's career aspirations(志向)are often based on factors such as gender stereotypes(性别的刻板印象)or what they've seen in the media, on TV and in the film. “For more and more children, online celebrities and YouTube gaming video bloggers have taken the place of TV and movie stars，” the report said. “It could be argued that this is due to the growing fame and attraction of YouTube and video blogging stars, who are especially popular among younger audiences. Also, this may also speak to children's present worlds. Many children from 7 to 11 will spend their time gaming and perhaps at the same time watching celebrity gaming bloggers instructing them how to do it.” The survey found that 5% of children wanted to be in the police, with the same percentage of becoming doctors. A gender breakdown showed the top job choice for girls was the teacher(19%), followed by the vet(11%) and sportswoman(9%) and police(8%)． This highlights the pressing need for closer ties between employers and schools, to ensure that all children can have role models in a wide range of fields to help them develop an awareness of career choices at an early age. “This is vital to ensure that all children—regardless of gender and backgrounds—can fulfill their full potential.” 【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文，介绍了孩子们的职业观发生了重大的改变这一现象，提醒人们要加强企业和学校之间的联系，给孩子们在各个领域中树立榜样，帮助他们从小培养择业意识。 1．According to the text, what is the traditional career choice? A．The police officer. B．The online celebrity. C．The professional game­player. D．The video blogger. 解析：选A　细节理解题。根据第一段内容可知，现在孩子们想从事社交媒体和游戏方面的工作，一项最新调查显示，很多7岁到11岁的孩子在考虑未来工作时都在关注现代科技，而不是像警察或医生这样的职业。所以警察和医生是传统的职业选择，故选A。online celebrity意为“网络名人”，professional game­player意为“专业的游戏玩家”，video blogger意为“视频博主”。 2．According to the survey, what's the favourite thing children from seven to eleven love to do? A．Play games and watch popular TV series. B．Participate in various sports in order to be sportsmen or sportswomen. C．Study hard and make great efforts to become teachers and police officers. D．Play games and watch celebrity gaming bloggers instructing them how to do it. 解析：选D　细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句可知，许多7岁到11岁的孩子会把时间花在游戏上，也许同时也会看名人游戏博客指导他们如何玩游戏，D项(玩游戏，看名人游戏博主指导他们怎么玩游戏)符合题意，故选D。 3．What's the purpose of the survey? A．To strengthen the importance of studying hard. B．To give children more advice to choose future careers. C．To give parents some suggestions to educate their children. D．To stress the importance of ties between employers and schools. 解析：选D　细节理解题。根据末段第一句可知，这个调查的目的是强调迫切需要加强雇主和学校之间的联系。故选D。本题易误选B项，但B项意为“就未来的职业选择给孩子更多的建议。”此表述与文章中“帮助孩子们培养择业意识”的概念有差别，故排除。 4．In which column can you probably read the text? A．Science.　　　　 B．Education. C．Sports. D．Culture. 解析：选B　推理判断题。根据文章首段首句以及末段首句可知，本文主要讲的是孩子职业观发生变化这一现象引发的教育问题。故选B。 Ⅱ.七选五 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Résumé(简历) tips：4 ways to stand out on paper According to a recent study，recruiters(招聘人员) only spend six seconds looking at your résumé. So how do you make it into the callback pile in those mere seconds? __1__Here is a bunch of ways to do just that. Use keywords When recruiters look through résumés, they're looking for keywords that match the job description, including basic keywords that will get their attention, but you can take it a step further. __2__Then include those keywords in your résumé as well. __3__ My friend is a chef. Her résumé looks a lot like any chef's résumé with one surprising difference. Under personal accomplishments she wrote, “Won the 2007 St. Bernard Parish Pie Eating Contest.” It isn't something you'd expect. She's been asked about the contest in several interviews, which is the perfect time to tell the recruiters that she also baked all of the pies for the contest. Turn your résumé into an infographic(信息图) __4__Just ask college journalist Chris Spurlock. Last year he turned his résumé into an infographic. Not long after, Spurlock's résumé was posted on both blogs and Twitter. If you're in a creative field, make your résumé look different from the standard one­page list. Make a video résumé Sales manager Stan Paprzycki shot a video of himself, posted it on YouTube, and then sent the link to potential employers. The result was almost 100 per cent positive response.__5__A video résumé is better suited for jobs like sales and marketing. A．Take part in a contest. B．Add unusual accomplishments. C．Better yet, his video résumé got him a job. D．Your résumé doesn't have to be a one­page list of achievements. E．Adding some personalities to your résumé can't hurt, but avoid jokes. F．By thinking outside the box and making a résumé that will hold the recruiters' attention. G．Check out the company's website and look for any company goals that fit your experience. 【语篇解读】　本文是说明文，介绍了四种让你的简历吸引招聘人员的方法。 1．解析：选F　空格前一句提出问题“...how do you make it into...？”选项F(通过跳出思维定式，制作一份吸引招聘人员注意力的简历)回答上一句的问题。结合下文可知，下一句中的 to do just that指选项F 中的hold the recruiters' attention。 2．解析：选G　空格前一句说“...you can take it a step further.(你可以更进一步)”；选项G意为“查看该公司的网站，寻找任何符合你的经验的公司目标”。作者建议针对公司的要求，在你的简历中以关键词的形式呈现你的经历，此举会更容易吸引招聘人员，这是对“更进一步”的补充说明。 3．解析：选B　分析文章结构可知，该空是此段的小标题。根据下文“Under personal accomplishments she wrote...”可知，此段主题是在你的简历中要体现你所取得的成就。选项B“加上不寻常的成就”符合该段主题。 4．解析：选D　此段的小标题为“把你的简历做成信息图表”；选项D指出你的简历不必是一页成就清单。由下文“...make your résumé look different from the standard one­page list.”可知，作者建议让你的简历看起来不同于标准的一页清单式简历，与选项D 意思相符。 5．解析：选C　此段的小标题是“制作视频简历”，下文举出Stan Paprzycki的例子，说明视频简历的好处；选项C意为“更好的是，他的视频简历让他找到了一份工作”，符合语境。 Ⅲ.完形填空 I grew up in North Little Rock, Arkansas in a working class, African­American neighborhood.
