B.Proper dressing can earn respect. C.Distinctive style wins admiration. D.Naughty people should be neglected. 解析：B　细节理解题。根据第三段最后两句可知，Lloyd的出现告诉年轻的Jay Blades得体的穿着可以赢得尊重。 25.Which is NOT the reason for people being mean to each other in Hackney then？（　　） A.Their young age. B.Limited resources. C.Racial discrimination. D.Terrible living conditions. 解析：A　细节理解题。文中四、五、六段提到Jay成长的环境a lot of desperate people（许多绝望的人），人们crawling over each other（互相攀爬）以求生存，原因包括资源有限、种族歧视和恶劣的生活条件。文中没有提到年轻是其原因。 26.How did the experience in the homeless shelter affect Jay？（　　） A.It taught young people to be tolerant. B.It made him work as a TV presenter. C.It helped him identify his talent and nature. D.It encouraged young people to be volunteers. 解析：C　推断判断题。根据倒数第二段可知，Jay在无家可归者收容所工作时，通过慈善组织发现了自己的修复和制作物品的技能，并最终成为家具修复师和电视节目主持人。由此推断，这段经历帮助Jay发现了自己的才能和天性。 27.Where can we probably find the text？（　　） A.A report.　 B.A column. C.A diary.　 D.A review. 解析：B　推理判断题。 本文是一篇个人经历的叙述，包含Jay的成长故事、感悟和反思，这种风格常见于杂志或报纸的专栏。 C 　　（2025·江苏南京高二下期末） The conventional language of career success moves in only one direction： up.If you really succeed， you will reach the top.But there is another type of career path.Sideways moves without a promotion or a pay rise can be a benefit to employees and organizations alike. 　　A study carried out by Donald Sull of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and his co-authors in 2021 found that the availability of lateral （横向的） career opportunities has a marked impact on keeping employees.When they decided whether to stay in the company or not， chances to move sideways were two and a half times more important than pay.Another paper， by Xin Jin of the University of South Florida and Michael Waldman of Cornell University， concluded that lateral moves did not just benefit organizations： employees who experienced them were more likely to be promoted and to enjoy higher wage growth later in their careers than employees who did not.You can move up by first moving sideways. 　　The crab-like career has other things going for it.One is that it is a good way to learn new things.As hiring processes increasingly emphasize skills， employers are likely to put comparatively less emphasis on CVs and comparatively more weight on what you know.Messrs Jin and Waldman reason that the upper ranks of companies tend to be people whose capabilities are broad， not deep； that may explain why lateral moves are good for promotion prospects.Along with skills come contacts. Transferring between teams usually means building a bigger internal network.Opening the door to more lateral moves is partly a practical matter.Some bigger employers have “internal talent marketplaces” in which employees can find and apply for jobs elsewhere in the company； smaller firms have fewer such opportunities to offer. 　　Embracing sideways movement also requires the right attitude.Lots of managers like to keep talents to themselves， at the expense of workers and firms.And moving sideways still has less cachet （声望） than moving upwards.Most people find it not so easy to accept. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了职场中横向调动问题，说明了这一做法的影响和好处。 28.How does the author develop paragraph 2？（　　） A.By telling personal stories. B.By providing research findings. C.By comparing different career paths. D.By making remarks on scientific reports. 解析：B　推理判断题。根据第二段可知，作者通过引用两项研究结果来支持横向职业机会对留住员工和员工职业发展的积极影响。因此，作者是通过提供研究发现来展开第二段的。 29.What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 3 mean？（　　） A.Lateral moves involve gaining new skills. B.Lateral moves are mainly for networking purposes. C.Transferring between teams leads to a larger network. D.Contacts are more important than skills in lateral moves. 解析：C　句意理解题。第三段画线句子后直接说明了在团队之间调动通常意味着建立更大的内部人脉网络。因此，该句强调了横向调动有助于扩大人脉。 30.What do many managers think of lateral career moves？（　　） A.They are a way to keep talent within the company. B.They are seen as a threat to the manager’s own positions. C.They could potentially lead to talent loss within the team. D.They could contribute to the company’s growth in the long run. 解析：C　细节理解题。根据最后一段第二句可知，许多管理者倾向于将人才留在自己的团队内，这可能是因为他们担心横向调动会导致团队人才流失。 31.Who may embrace lateral moves？（　　） A.Bosses who value short-term profits. B.Employees who are eager for more skills. C.Managers who appreciate long-term stability. D.Job hunters who are interested in smaller firms. 解析：B　细节理解题。文中提到横向调动有助于学习新技能和建立广泛的能力，这与员工渴望获得更多技能的愿望相符。因此，那些渴望提升技能的员工更可能接受横向调动。 D 　　（2025·重庆实验外国语学校高二下期末） Do you remember being asked what you wanted to be when you grew up？ No doubt the more imaginative your answer was， the more approval you would get.But once we reach adolescence， there’s far less tolerance for answers like， “I’m going to be a marine biologist， circus clown and journalist！” Now the question translates as You are allowed one identity in this life， so which is it？ 　　At university you need to choose a subject to major in， which leads to one specific degree， intended for one type of job.The message that you need to specialise is reinforced （强化） in many contexts.Career guidance books and counsellors give you tests to help you identify your dream job. 　　But what happens if you’re curious about several subjects， and there are many things you’d like to study？ If you’re unable or unwilling to settle on a single career path， you might worry that you don’t have one true calling like everybody else and that， therefore， your life lacks purpose.As the saying goes， you’re “a jack of all trades， master of none”. 　　In reality， the ambitious young people of today are more interested in moving around and doing different things.In the modern workplace， people are working flexibly and the individual is in control of their professional lives and in a position to make decisions about how， when and where they work.Rather than finding something and doing it forever， the new challenge is to find a way of working that works for you. 　　This new flexible workplace is one where generalists feel at ease.People who have a range of interests are suited to the modern workplace in two essential ways.Firstly， they are used to combining two or more fields and it is at the intersection （十字路口） between seemingly unrelated ideas that innovation often happens.Secondly， people who change roles frequently are less afraid of trying new things and stepping out of their comfort zones.They’re fast learners.And finally， they are adaptable.So， if you’re a generalist， you are the one who will thrive （蓬勃发展） in the future workplace. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了现代职场的灵活性以及兴趣广泛的人在这种职场中的优势。 32.What does the author say about university students？（　　） A.They tend to lose their imagination. B.They feel pressured to choose a speciality. C.They could benefit from career counselling. D.They find it impossible to make decisions independently. 解析：B　推理判断题。根据第二段首句可知，大学生需要选择一个专业主修，这会导向一个特定的学位，为一种特定类型的工作做打算。因此，大学生感到被迫选择一个专业，即他们感到有压力要选择一个专业领域。 33.What does the author suggest in the third paragraph？（　　） A.People refuse to choose a career on purpose. B.Everybody should find a passion and stick to it. C.You’ll never succeed unless you find your dream job. D.Some people may be unsure what career they really like. 解析：D　推理判断题。根据第三段第二句可知，有些人无法或不愿意选择单一的职业道路。由此推断，作者暗示有些人可能对自己的职业喜好不确定。 34.What are people like in the modern workplace？（　　） A.They rarely decide what they want to do. B.They prefer to stay in the same profession. C.They are constantly challenged to change jobs. D.They are taking control of how they work. 解析：D　细节理解题。根据第四段第二句可知，在现代工作场所，人们的工作方式更加灵活，并且个人掌控着自己的职业生涯，可以决定工作的方式、时间和地点。 35.What is the last paragraph mainly about？（　　） A.The importance of continuous learning. B.Advantages of generalists in the future workplace. C.Ways the modern workplace makes use of flexible workers. D.The relationship between personal interests and career choices. 解析：B　段落大意题。最后一段介绍了具有多种兴趣的人（通才）在现代工作场所中的优势，包括他们在不同领域之间的交叉点上推动创新的能力，以及他们快速学习和适应新事物的能力。因此，最后一段主要讲述了通才在未来工作场所的优势。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 　　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。 　　（2025·河北沧州高二下期末） Choosing a career goal is a personal exercise in figuring out what’s most important to you and your life.36.（　　） To help you get started， we rounded up a few common career goal examples below. 　　Secure a Job Title 　　This goal focuses on climbing up the career ladder to a more senior position.Before setting this goal， research the target role’s day-to-day responsibilities and make sure it resonates （产生共鸣） with you.From there， reach out to an instructor or people in those positions.What skills， certifications and experiences did they need to reach that position？ 37.（　　） 　　Work for a Distinguished Company 　　If working at a big-name company is meaningful to you， it’s important to research different companies and industries.38.（　　） And explore where you might best fit in.Then reach out to people who work there or review their profiles to see what paths they took to reach that job. 　　Earn a Specific Salary 　　39.（　　） Whether it’s more freedom to travel or an early retirement， having another objective in mind will make the money you earn more meaningful.To set an effective financial target， review the salaries of people in your field and the experience level required to earn that amount.It may also help to enhance your negotiation skills so you can push for higher salaries as you navigate the job market. 　　40.（　　） 　　This type of goal can be abstract， but it’s still possible to make it specific and measurable.Start with reflecting on your current situation.Are you happy？ What aspects of your job do you find satisfying？ What tasks can you do to make yourself happier？ Every six months， hold yourself accountable to those tasks and assess your situation.

38.C　该段主题是“为知名公司工作”。上文说如果在知名公司工作对你有意义，研究不同公司和行业很重要，下文说探索你最适合的位置。C项（确定你对那些公司所热衷的方面）与下文探索适合自己的位置相衔接。 39.E　该段主题是 “获得特定薪水”。下文说无论是有更多旅行自由还是提前退休，心中有另一个目标会让你赚的钱更有意义。E项（当与其他目标结合时，这个财务目标是最有效的）与下文提到的有其他目标相呼应。 40.B　下文提到这种类型的目标可能很抽象，但仍可以使其具体和可衡量，从反思当前情况入手，思考工作中满意的方面以及能让自己更快乐的任务，每六个月对这些任务负责并评估自己的情况。B项（获得职业满意度）统领下文，适合作本段主题句。 第三部分　语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 　　阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
