This time, we wanted to know about your future career and how you feel about it. Thank you to everyone who took part in our survey—more than 550 of you. Most of you are in the UK, but we also had replies from readers in Bermuda, China, France, Greece, India, Ireland, the Netherlands, Singapore and the US. Three quarters of you knew what job you’d like to do, although that changed in the different age groups. Younger readers had a fixed goal, but by the age of 14,44% of readers weren’t sure. Your replies are very useful because they help us to decide what to cover in the magazine. A whopping 88% said yes when we asked whether you’d like to learn about different jobs in The Week Junior. We will be looking at how to do that over the next few months. There’s an expression, “You have to see it to be it”, so we asked if you know someone who does your dream job. Just over a quarter of you said yes. That still leaves 72% who are taking their inspiration from somewhere else. Here’s what else you told us... True to your values We wanted to know about your priorities when you imagined your dream job. Here’s what you picked out from the list we offered. Money matters Getting paid for your work is important—but we asked just how important. We asked you if you would do an unenjoyable job if it paid a lot of money. Overall, only around one in 10 of you said yes—although that increased depending on age. One in four readers aged 14 said they’d put up with doing something they didn’t really like. Be your own boss Some people like to work for companies; others prefer to work for themselves. Lots of you said you might like to start your own business—80% said you would at least think about it. What do you enjoy?     Even if you know exactly what job you want, it’s useful to consider which skills you like using. Age made a difference: 94% of readers aged 14 said solving problems was what they loved best. For younger readers, being creative was by far the most important. Here are the overall results, going from top priority to least important. Being outgoing Learning new things Helping others Solving problems Traveling Showing other people how to do things Meeting new people Being in charge Building or fixing things 1．Why are readers’ replies very useful? A．They let the magazine make money. B．They attract more readers to join. C．They make the magazine more popular. D．They help decide magazine content. 2．How many readers might accept an unenjoyable job for high pay? A．Almost 90%. B．Around 25%. C．About 10%. D．Nearly 44%. 3．According to the survey, which of the following is TRUE? A．All the readers think being creative is the most important one. B．Readers have different opinions about which skill is important. C．Eighty percent of the readers decide to start their own business. D．Most readers think making a lot of money is the most important. 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．B 【导语】本文是一篇应用文，主要讲述了《The Week Junior》杂志对来自多个国家的550多名读者开展了关于未来职业的调查，内容涉及读者的职业目标、工作优先级，调查结果对杂志后续内容选择具有重要参考价值。 1．细节理解题。根据文章第2段“Your replies are very useful because they help us to decide what to cover in the magazine.”可知，你们的回复非常有用，因为它们能帮助我们决定杂志要刊登的内容。故选D。 2．细节理解题。根据表格“Money matters”部分“We asked you if you would do an unenjoyable job if it paid a lot of money. Overall, only around one in 10 of you said yes—although that increased depending on age.”可知，我们问你，如果报酬很高，你是否愿意做一份不愉快的工作。总体而言，你们中只有约十分之一的人给出了肯定回答，即约10%。故选C。 3．推理判断题。根据表格“What do you enjoy?”部分“Age made a difference: 94% of readers aged 14 said solving problems was what they loved best. For younger readers, being creative was by far the most important.”可知，年龄差异会产生影响：94%的14岁读者表示解决问题是他们最喜欢的事情。而对于更年轻的读者来说，创造力是迄今为止最重要的。由此可推知，读者对重要技能的看法存在差异。故选B。 Siyang Hotel We are looking to add some food servers to our team.
