Since 2007, the dispatchers in the center have been drawing maps of the local areas. “A dispatcher’s job is counted in seconds,” says Liang Ruimei, a dispatcher in the center. She has been working in the center since it started in 2007. “We must answer the phone in 3 seconds, get clear information about the patient in 60 seconds and dispatch (调度) emergency medical workers in 3 minutes at most. If we save one second, the patient may have a better chance to live. ” Although nowadays the center has electronic maps, the dispatchers still walk through the streets to draw maps by hand. After many years’ hard work, the dispatchers keep every building and street of the city in mind. They even know whether or not a car can enter the gate of a building. Sometimes the caller can’t tell clearly where he is, but it doesn’t matter. As long as he describes the buildings around, the dispatcher can dispatch emergency medical workers to him. “We are trying to be quicker than death,” says Liang. 1．What is Liang Ruimei?

Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题) In the city center, firefighters quickly get ready when they hear the alarm. Within 60 seconds they are dressed and rushing to a burning building. Even though they know the floors might collapse and the ceilings could fall, they still have to go inside. One wrong decision might mean death. Who would do a job like that? Ask firefighter Sam Telfer. One month ago, he signed up for the job. He used to sit in an office of a software company, but now he is trained to break into rooms full of smoke and heat and come up with a rescue strategy. “I wanted a job where I could be active, work with my hands, learn new practical skills, and face different challenges every day,” That’s quite an understatement (保守说法) to describe a career that requires you to keep a cool head while fighting against a fire. But Telfer says that flames (火焰) and nerves can be controlled in the same way: through continuous physical and mental training. Telfer was a runner in college, but now he trains his lungs for dangerous situations instead of races. He has to climb hundreds of steps while wearing 34 kilograms of gear, like oxygen tanks. He also needs to carry unconscious people to safety. No matter what he’s doing, he has to control his breathing. Panic (恐慌) will only waste his limited air supply. His survival depends on more than just being physically fit. Firefighters need a lot of mental preparation too. When they are not dealing with emergencies, they study many subjects like emergency medicine, structural design, and chemical reactions. They practice quickly assessing (评估) the changing conditions of a fire. Shifting from a software expert to a first responder was a big change for Telfer. But he says, “I have never once felt that this isn’t the right job for me.” Even though danger might be waiting every day, his body and mind are trained to stay calm, even in the middle of a fierce fire. 1．Firefighters have to get ready within sixty seconds after hearing the alarm, don’t they? 2．When did Sam Telfer become a firefighter? 3．Where did Telfer work before becoming a firefighter? 4．What physical training does a firefighter take?

A designer plans how to make those ideas happen. A set of steps should be followed. Step One is defining (界定) a problem or need. A theater puts on a show. Actors wearing costumes act on a lighted stage. Set designers design the stage sets. Lighting designers decide what lights to use. Costume designers choose clothes for the actors to wear. Together they form the design team. They share the same need, which is making the show happen. Step Two is defining a successful result. The desired result is different for different kinds of designers. A fashion designer designs clothing styles. Because stores need people to keep buying, fashion designers need to design clothes that people will buy. The clothes should be different from older clothes. Step Three is to describe the situation as it is now. A landscape designer plans outdoor areas. The designer looks carefully at the piece of land. Is it flat or hilly? What kind of soil does it have? What plants grow well in that soil? How do people want to use this land? The designer uses all the information in planning. Step Four is to understand the user. The designer needs to know who will use the product. Software designers write computer programs. They think about the user sitting in front of the screen. Step Five is to make a detailed plan. Architects design buildings. They plan the size and shape of each room, and decide what materials to use. All the details are on a drawing called a blueprint. The builders will follow this blueprint. The building will be exactly like the plan. Last but not least, designers should work with other people to turn the design into the real thing. Fashion designers need people to sew the clothes.

They work in the present, but they are planners for the future. 1．What does the underlined word “they” refer to? 2．How does the design team make the show happen on the stage in Paragraph 2? 3．Who should the designers try to understand? 4．What drawing is a new house built based on? 5．What’s a proper title for this passage? 【答案】1．The set designers, lighting designers and costume designers. 2．By designing the stage sets, deciding the lights and choosing the costumes. 3．The users. 4．A blueprint. 5．The Work of Designers/How Designers Work。 【导语】本文主要讲了设计师的工作流程和他们在不同领域中的具体职责。 1．根据文中第二段“Set designers design the stage sets.

Do you order it from us, or is it distributed to you at school? At any rate, it is very unlikely it will be delivered to your door by a newspaper boy or newspaper girl early in the morning, before you have started out for school. But this is just the way that many newspapers are delivered in the UK. Newsagents—small shops in the neighborhood—employ schoolchildren aged between 14 and 16 to deliver newspapers to their customers. It is a way for young people to earn a little money, and a first adventure in the world of work—on however small a scale. I first had a “paper round” when I was 14. I have vivid memories of it, because it showed me a world I had not seen before. I would rise in the morning at 5:30, eat a quiet breakfast, and ride my bike to the newsagent. It would still be dark at that hour and in the wintertime, bitterly cold. It was new and strange and, before I got used to it, rather unpleasant. The experience taught me that I was growing up into an adult. At the newsagents, I would pick up a big, heavy bag of newspapers and do a tour of the streets, taking people the Suns, Daily Mails and Guardians they had on order from the shop. The job would take an hour or so and it could be very tiring. Those bags were really heavy! At first, I had problems because of the tiredness, since once I had returned home I had to set out for a full day of school. Still, it was worth it on Saturday morning when I would be paid for my work. What satisfaction to have some spending money in my pocket, and to know that I had earned it all by myself! 【回答问题】 1．What age range of children do Newsagents employ to deliver newspapers? 2．When did the author first deliver newspapers? 3．What time did the author wake up to deliver the newspaper? 4．How did the author get to the newsagent? 5．How long did the author deliver newspapers every day? 【答案】1．They employ children aged between 14 and 16 to deliver newspapers. 2．At the age of 14. 3．At 5:30. 4．By bike. 5．About an hour. 【导语】本篇是一篇记叙文。文章回顾了作者小时候当送报员赚得人生第一桶金的经历，表明送报纸算是初入职场。 1．根据“Newsagents—small shops in the neighborhood—employ schoolchildren aged between 14 and 16 to deliver newspapers to their customers.”可知，报社雇佣14-16岁儿童送报。故填They employ children aged between 14 and 16 to deliver newspapers. 2．根据“I first had a “paper round” when I was 14.”可知，作者14岁时第一次送报。故填At the age of 14. 3．根据“I would rise in the morning at 5:30 ...”可知，作者早上5点半起床去送报。故填At 5:30. 4．根据“... and ride my bike to the newsagent.”可知，作者骑自行车去报刊亭。故填By bike. 5．根据“The job would take an hour or so and it could be very tiring.”可知，作者每天送报约一小时。故填About an hour. 16 同步新教材，周周有练习，月月有重点！ 17 同步新教材，周周有练习，月月有重点！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026学年一线教师制作新教材英语同步精品系列资料，名师遴选！ 2025-2026学年一线教师制作新教材英语同步精品系列资料，名师遴选！ 学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ Unit 1 Career talks 单元主题阅读回答问题巩固复习练（紧贴新教材）   主   题   阅   读 基础入门限时练 阅读表达：阅读下面短文，根据材料内容回答问题。 In a Chinese class, Mrs Li asked her students, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” Ma Li put up her hand and answered, “I want to be a village doctor.” Ma Li is a new student.

Many villagers’ illnesses got more serious (严重的) because they couldn’t see a doctor in time (及时). In 1995, my grandpa gave up his job as a doctor in the city and worked in our village. He often visited patients at their home. He really made a difference to the villagers’ lives. I think his job is meaningful. So I want to be a village doctor like my grandfather.” “It’s not easy to go to a medical college (医科大学), but I will work hard to make my dream come true.” Ma Li said. “I’m sure you can make it.” Mrs Li said to Ma Li.

It helps us know what we want to do in the future and how to achieve our goals. Here are some steps to make a career plan.     First, understand yourself. Think about your interests, skills and strengths. For example, if you like working with children and are good at communicating, you might consider becoming a teacher. If you are interested in science and enjoy doing experiments, a career in research could be a good choice.     Second, research different careers. Learn about the requirements, working conditions and development prospects (前景) of different jobs. You can read books, search online or talk to people who work in the fields you are interested in. This can help you make a more informed decision.     Third, set short-term and long-term goals. Short-term goals are things you want to achieve in one or two years, such as learning a new skill or getting a certificate (证书). Long-term goals are what you want to achieve in five or ten years, like becoming a manager or starting your own business.     Fourth, make an action plan. Once you have set your goals, you need to figure out what steps to take to achieve them. For example, if your goal is to become a doctor, you need to study hard in school, get into a good medical college and complete your training.     Finally, review and adjust (调整) your plan regularly. As you grow and change, your interests and goals may also change. It’s important to review your career plan from time to time and make adjustments if necessary. 1．What is an important part of personal growth? 2．What should you think about when understanding yourself? 3．How can you research different careers? 4．What are short-term goals? 5．Why should you review and adjust your plan regularly? 提升培优限时练 阅读短文，然后根据内容回答问题。 Everybody dreams about the future.

The results of the survey show that most teenagers have thought about their future careers, but their ideas are still not clear.     When asked about their dream careers, 35% of the teenagers want to be doctors or nurses. They think these jobs are meaningful because they can help people stay healthy. 25% of them hope to become scientists. They are interested in science and technology and want to make contributions to the development of the country. 20% of the teenagers want to be teachers. They admire their own teachers and hope to pass on knowledge to the next generation. The remaining 20% have other dreams, such as becoming artists, athletes or business people.     The survey also found that teenagers’ career choices are mainly influenced by their parents and teachers. 60% of the teenagers said that their parents’ suggestions have a great impact on their career choices. 30% of them are influenced by their teachers. Only 10% of the teenagers make their career choices based on their own interests.     In addition, most teenagers think that it’s important to study hard to achieve their career dreams. 85% of them said that they will work hard at their lessons to improve their academic performance.

(within 15 words) 满分冲刺限时练 阅读下面短文, 并用英语回答问题(请注意每小题后面的词数要求)。 In Jinzhong, Shanxi Province, there is a group of people who are busy drawing maps around. They are not workers on geography, but dispatchers (调度员) on Emergency (急救) Center of the city. Since 2007, the dispatchers in the center have been drawing maps of the local areas. “A dispatcher’s job is counted in seconds,” says Liang Ruimei, a dispatcher in the center. She has been working in the center since it started in 2007. “We must answer the phone in 3 seconds, get clear information about the patient in 60 seconds and dispatch (调度) emergency medical workers in 3 minutes at most. If we save one second, the patient may have a better chance to live. ” Although nowadays the center has electronic maps, the dispatchers still walk through the streets to draw maps by hand. After many years’ hard work, the dispatchers keep every building and street of the city in mind. They even know whether or not a car can enter the gate of a building. Sometimes the caller can’t tell clearly where he is, but it doesn’t matter. As long as he describes the buildings around, the dispatcher can dispatch emergency medical workers to him. “We are trying to be quicker than death,” says Liang. 1．What is Liang Ruimei? (不超过10个词) 2．When did Emergency Center of Jinzhong start? (不超过5个词) 3．If the caller can’t tell the dispatcher clearly where he is, what should the caller do? (不超过10 个词) Answer the questions (根据短文内容回答下列问题) In the city center, firefighters quickly get ready when they hear the alarm. Within 60 seconds they are dressed and rushing to a burning building. Even though they know the floors might collapse and the ceilings could fall, they still have to go inside. One wrong decision might mean death. Who would do a job like that? Ask firefighter Sam Telfer. One month ago, he signed up for the job. He used to sit in an office of a software company, but now he is trained to break into rooms full of smoke and heat and come up with a rescue strategy. “I wanted a job where I could be active, work with my hands, learn new practical skills, and face different challenges every day,” That’s quite an understatement (保守说法) to describe a career that requires you to keep a cool head while fighting against a fire. But Telfer says that flames (火焰) and nerves can be controlled in the same way: through continuous physical and mental training. Telfer was a runner in college, but now he trains his lungs for dangerous situations instead of races. He has to climb hundreds of steps while wearing 34 kilograms of gear, like oxygen tanks. He also needs to carry unconscious people to safety. No matter what he’s doing, he has to control his breathing. Panic (恐慌) will only waste his limited air supply. His survival depends on more than just being physically fit. Firefighters need a lot of mental preparation too. When they are not dealing with emergencies, they study many subjects like emergency medicine, structural design, and chemical reactions. They practice quickly assessing (评估) the changing conditions of a fire. Shifting from a software expert to a first responder was a big change for Telfer. But he says, “I have never once felt that this isn’t the right job for me.” Even though danger might be waiting every day, his body and mind are trained to stay calm, even in the middle of a fierce fire. 1．Firefighters have to get ready within sixty seconds after hearing the alarm, don’t they? 2．When did Sam Telfer become a firefighter? 3．Where did Telfer work before becoming a firefighter? 4．What physical training does a firefighter take? Give an example. 5．How can a firefighter survive a big fire? 6．Does Sam Telfer love the job as a firefighter? Give your reason. 阅读下面短文，回答下列小题。 A designer is a person who has ideas. But that’s not all. A designer plans how to make those ideas happen. A set of steps should be followed. Step One is defining (界定) a problem or need. A theater puts on a show. Actors wearing costumes act on a lighted stage. Set designers design the stage sets. Lighting designers decide what lights to use. Costume designers choose clothes for the actors to wear. Together they form the design team. They share the same need, which is making the show happen. Step Two is defining a successful result. The desired result is different for different kinds of designers. A fashion designer designs clothing styles. Because stores need people to keep buying, fashion designers need to design clothes that people will buy. The clothes should be different from older clothes. Step Three is to describe the situation as it is now. A landscape designer plans outdoor areas. The designer looks carefully at the piece of land. Is it flat or hilly? What kind of soil does it have? What plants grow well in that soil? How do people want to use this land? The designer uses all the information in planning. Step Four is to understand the user. The designer needs to know who will use the product. Software designers write computer programs. They think about the user sitting in front of the screen. Step Five is to make a detailed plan. Architects design buildings. They plan the size and shape of each room, and decide what materials to use. All the details are on a drawing called a blueprint. The builders will follow this blueprint. The building will be exactly like the plan. Last but not least, designers should work with other people to turn the design into the real thing. Fashion designers need people to sew the clothes. Landscape designers need workers to plant the plants. Designers are artists, scientists, and inventors. They work in the present, but they are planners for the future. 1．What does the underlined word “they” refer to? 2．How does the design team make the show happen on the stage in Paragraph 2? 3．Who should the designers try to understand? 4．What drawing is a new house built based on? 5．What’s a proper title for this passage? 【语篇来自二十一世纪学生英文报·试题原创】 Hesitant first step into the world of work How do you get your copy of Teens?
