They love their cats and dogs, but they are often very busy with work and study. So, a question comes up: who can help take care of their furry (毛茸茸的) animal friends when they are not at home? Now, there is a great answer. A new type of job is becoming popular, especially among young people. It’s called pet sitting. So, what does a pet sitter do? It’s a simple but very important job. A pet sitter goes to an owner’s house when the owner is away. They give the pet fresh food and water. They also play with the animal to keep it happy and active. Sometimes, they need to clean the pet’s living area. One of the best parts of the job is taking photos and videos of the pet. They send these updates to the owners, so the owners don’t worry and can see their pet is having a good time. Many young people love this job for several reasons. First, they get to spend time with lovely animals. They say the feeling of being needed by a friendly dog or a cute cat is wonderful. What’s more, the job has flexible (灵活的) hours. This means they can work on weekends or during holidays, which is perfect for students or people who already have another job. It is also a good way to earn some extra money while doing something fun and rewarding. As more families in cities get pets, the need for kind and trustworthy (值得信赖的) pet sitters is growing quickly. This new job offers a perfect solution for busy owners and a happy experience for young animal lovers. 1．Who of the following is most likely to need a pet sitter? A．Old people in the busy city. B．Students without any pets. C．Busy pet owners in the city. D．People who work in small towns. 2．Why do pet sitters send photos and videos of the pets to the owners? A．To show they are hard-working.

B．There are two reasons why young people love pet sitting. C．The need for pet sitters will keep growing in the coming years. D．Pet sitters need to go to the owners’ houses when they are away. 4．What’s the best title for the text? A．How to Take Care of Pets B．The City’s New Furry Helpers C．Busy Pet Owners in Big Cities D．Young People’s Favorite Jobs What’s your dream job? How much do you know about it? A group of students from Tianjin found a problem: Most middle school students plan little for their future jobs. Because there is too little help from their school or family. To guide students to make job plans, the students from Tianjin No.1 Middle School started a project called “Dian Zhi Cheng Shi”. “Most students want to know more about different jobs,” said Wang Xinran, a project member. To meet the students’ needs, the team interviewed 32 people with different jobs and posted their interviews on TV shows. The people shared true stories behind each job to make students learn about the jobs in depth. A team member Liu Jinyan said his most unforgettable interview was with a photographer (摄影师). “In the past, I thought being a photographer was cool. But now I know that they have to face lots of problems. They also need to communicate with different people.” But the project “Dian Zhi Cheng Shi” doesn’t mean to let the students down (失望的) by telling them the problems. “We want to show people’s love and hard work, not the bad sides,” said a team member Zhao Yajie. “The project’s name means to turn a job into a poem. We don’t believe working is just about bread and milk. It should be like a poem, full of love and beauty. And we hope our project can help students know that.” 1．Why do most students plan little for their future jobs? A．They have no dream jobs. B．They don’t want to work. C．They are busy with studies. D．They can get little help with that. 2．What may the underlined words “learn about the jobs in depth” mean? A．Know the jobs more clearly. B．Know the jobs more happily. C．Know the jobs more slowly. D．Know the jobs more cheaply. 3．What does Liu Jinyan think of being a photographer now? A．Cool. B．Challenging. C．Enjoyable. D．Exciting. 4．Which is the purpose (目的) of “Dian Zhi Cheng Shi”? A．To help students understand a poem. B．To show the bad sides of different jobs. C．To let students talk with different people. D．To help students know the meaning of work. 5．What is the best title (标题) for the text? A．A Study for Students’ Future B．Good and Bad Sides of a Job C．A Project for Students’ Future Jobs D．Different People with Different Jobs As a Grade 8 student, I often think about my future studies and life. Making a good plan is really important for me to become a better person. Here is my plan for the next two years. First, I want to improve my English skills. I will read English stories for 30 minutes every morning and keep a diary in English twice a week. I also plan to join the English club at school, where I can practice speaking with my classmates and teachers. Second, I will work hard on all my subjects. Math is my weak point, so I will ask my teacher for help after class and do more exercises to get better grades. For Chinese, I will read more classic books and take notes of good sentences. Third, I want to develop a healthy hobby. I love playing basketball, so I will play it with my friends every Saturday afternoon. This can not only make me strong but also help me relax after a week’s study. Finally, I will learn to be a responsible person. I will help my parents do housework on weekends, like cleaning the room and washing the dishes. I will also take part in volunteer activities, such as helping the old people at the community center. I know it’s not easy to stick to a plan, but I will try my best.

Many people start dreaming about future jobs when they are young. They imagine being teachers, doctors, engineers, artists, or players one day.

A dream job isn’t just about the work itself—it gives us hope and pride, giving life a clear direction. And working hard brings us closer to the dream. Every small step takes us forward. We can read more books, practice new skills, or ask for help from others. If we keep trying and never give up, one day our dreams will come true. That time will be the most beautiful time in life.

So do my friends.”可知，Anne想过一种轻松，舒服，简单的生活，而Anne的朋友们也喜欢这样的生活，此句中的“easy life”表示“简单、轻松以及舒适的生活”，根据选项，与“easy”意思一样的是“comfortable”。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据Linda的自述文字中的“I’m going to buy a restaurant and have lots of staff who do everything I ask!”可知，Linda想要买一个餐厅，餐厅有很多工作人员，他们会做我要求的一切。从此句的句意分析，Linda的梦想是拥有一家自己的餐厅。A选项“有一家她自己的餐厅”符合此部分的句意。故选A。 3．细节理解题。根据Betty的自述文字中的“You have to study for about seven years, and you have to be very clever and get good marks for all your exams. You must have work experience with animals before you study, too.”这段描述可知，当一名兽医，要具备至少学习七年，而且人需要很聪明，也需要以好的成绩通过你所有的考试。此外，在学习之前，你必须与动物相关的工作经验。从这些必须具备的条件中，没有提到个人必要身高很高且强壮，所以当一名兽医， 不需要身高很高且强壮。C选项“要身高高的且强壮的”不符合当一名兽医所以具备的条件。故选C。 4．细节理解题。根据Betty的自述的文字中的“The only thing I don’t like about this job is that you can get very sad when animals die.”此句可知，当动物死了，Betty会很伤心，这也是唯一一件事情让Betty不喜欢兽医这项工作，因此C选项“animals’death”表示“动物的死亡”符合此句的句意。故选C。 5．细节理解题。根据Anne的自述文字中的“Really, I want a part—time job which gives me lots of money!”此句可知，Anne喜欢兼职的工作，不喜欢全职的工作，也就是不喜欢full-time job，所以不喜欢a full time job的是Anne。故选B。 Many students have different dreams for their future, and these dreams often push them to work hard in daily study and life.

How much do you know about it? A group of students from Tianjin found a problem: Most middle school students plan little for their future jobs. Because there is too little help from their school or family. To guide students to make job plans, the students from Tianjin No.1 Middle School started a project called “Dian Zhi Cheng Shi”. “Most students want to know more about different jobs,” said Wang Xinran, a project member. To meet the students’ needs, the team interviewed 32 people with different jobs and posted their interviews on TV shows. The people shared true stories behind each job to make students learn about the jobs in depth. A team member Liu Jinyan said his most unforgettable interview was with a photographer (摄影师). “In the past, I thought being a photographer was cool. But now I know that they have to face lots of problems. They also need to communicate with different people.” But the project “Dian Zhi Cheng Shi” doesn’t mean to let the students down (失望的) by telling them the problems. “We want to show people’s love and hard work, not the bad sides,” said a team member Zhao Yajie. “The project’s name means to turn a job into a poem. We don’t believe working is just about bread and milk. It should be like a poem, full of love and beauty. And we hope our project can help students know that.” 1．Why do most students plan little for their future jobs? A．They have no dream jobs. B．They don’t want to work. C．They are busy with studies.
