The job market is changing, and knowing where to look can make a big difference. Let’s get started!

B For most of my career, my colleagues only saw my “resting science face”, the driven side that spends hours on conference talks or stays up all night finishing research grant (拨款) applications. They didn’t know I loved Saturday Night Live’s specific plots. As a woman and mother, I felt I had to prove seriousness, fearing others would think my personal life took my focus away from doing well. My serious act worked. I got a job at a top university, recruited (招募) great graduate students, and earned a permanent teaching position. But I split myself serious in public, silly in private. Later, I realized showing both sides sooner would have strengthened my work and relationships. In 2024, a random local live storytelling show broke my public image. I shared my embarrassing Thailand trip story; the laughter felt like a warm hug, not shame. Therefore, I decided to make changes at work. I taught in an animal costume on Halloween, began lab meetings by asking students about joy, and started monthly colleague get-togethers — we wore wild clothes, drank fancy beverages, and chatted lightly to step out of professional mode. Last winter, my EPA grant was suddenly cut. To deal with it, I wrote funny pieces, made joke T-shirts, and let colleagues take my mind off things. We talked about the set design of the 1992 music video Baby Got Back. Surprisingly, students found me easier to get along with. It also built trust with my colleagues. I knew I needed new ways to pursue goals, but pressure felt too big to handle. Fortunately, laughter kept me present, reminding me of joy with co-workers. In the end, I realized being true to myself at work is a strength. For others, it might be talking more about hobbies or family; for me, it’s humor. So even as I rethink research plans, I’ll wear colorful clothes, call friends, and joke. Now more than ever, it’s time to laugh. 4. Why did the author initially act seriously? A. To observe professional rules. B. To defend academic authority. C. To obtain a teaching position. D. To avoid negative comments. 5. What should the author do to better the work and relationships? A. Show her two distinct qualities. B. Share her previous hardships. C. Balance her varied roles in life. D. Live up to others’ expectations. 6. Which word can best describe the author in her students’ minds? A. Reliable. B. Stubborn. C. Approachable. D. Conservative. 7. Which of the following could be the best title for the text? A. Humor Shapes My Career B. Optimism Eases Tough Times C. Learning Is Teaching Oneself D. Laughter Is the Best Medicine C Heavy traffic is a widespread problem across the United States, wasting both drivers’ time and money. A 2022 study showed that city drivers spent a surprising 51 hours a year waiting in traffic. This has a national cost of about $81 billion. Many people now use navigation (导航) apps on their phones to find the quickest route, but this can create a new problem. If thousands of users follow the same “clear” route suggested by the same navigation, that route will certainly become busy. It’s like everyone trying to rush through one subway car door at the same time. Fortunately, an innovative solution has emerged. A professor and her team have developed a new and special technology for finding routes, inspired by insights from the study of how people make choices in games. Rather than making route recommendations uniform by assigning the same “best” route to every driver, this cutting-edge technology delivers bespoke route suggestions. The goal is not to help one driver win, but to reduce travel time and costs for all drivers, creating a better traffic flow for the entire system. To make this technology effective in the real world, the researchers created a special method to manage massive online requests for routes at once. They also designed a system to make it work faster and enhance the technology’s performance even when phone or Internet service fails. Thanks to these new ideas, tests have demonstrated remarkable success. The research showed that the technology can reduce heavy traffic by an amazing 55%. This new technology is a potential big change for drivers. Its use in traffic programs could lead to less time wasted in traffic, a reduction in harmful gas from vehicles for better air quality, and great savings on fuel. This would improve our ways of travel for everyone. And the best part? The technology is designed to benefit all people in society, not just individual drivers looking for the fastest way to the place they want to go. 8. What trouble do smart navigation systems bring about? A. Users’ annoyance. B. Long waits on roads. C. Higher fuel prices. D. More traffic crashes. 9. What does the underlined word “bespoke” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Standardized. B. Modernized. C. Personalized. D. Commercialized. 10. What is the characteristic of the new technology? A. Fast response to roadblocks. B. Stable performance in trials. C. Adaptability to temperatures. D. Efficiency in terrible signals. 11. What is the final purpose of the new technology? A. To make cities liveable. B. To enhance road safety. C. To reduce travel expense. D. To decrease air pollution. D When coming to college, many students struggle with the task of selecting a field of study to pursue. With many factors to weigh, this decision can create a storm of doubt. Trapped in a dilemma, students fail to balance their strengths, parental and cultural expectations, potential salaries and personal passions. There’s a widespread misconception that subjects such as communication, philosophy, gender studies, English and history are inherently useless and offer little value in today’s job market. We need to address our understanding of what defines “usefulness” in education. Laura Vazquez, a professor of communication at Northern Illinois University, argues that humanities majors teach vital skills. “These fields teach you not only about how the world works, but they also teach you how to be adaptable, how to be a critical thinker and especially if you’re talking about communication, how to get really good at communication skills,” Vazquez said. These skills are not a guarantee that comes with any college major. People don’t realize how often they are influenced or affected by the word choice and manner in which a message is presented. The reality of the matter is that not just anyone can do communication-based jobs, as they require a deep understanding of language and human nature. Take for example, when your favorite celebrity’s career is in great danger because they said something offensive and now are faced with the reality of being canceled. In such moments, the outcome depends on their response: they can either acknowledge their misstep effectively or risk missing the mark entirely. Right now, people are valuing fields with higher salary potential. But just because a student picks a major that is not considered “useless” does not mean that they will necessarily have success. In fact, there are many high salary jobs in humanities fields. Discouraging students from choosing majors that are not a highway to a $100k salary does not benefit them—it reduces the point of higher purpose education and takes away talent that can be found through these majors. 12. What kind of problem do pre-university students face? A. What strengths to master. B. Which field to choose. C. How to get over study difficulties. D. How to balance leisure and study. 13. What do Laura Vazquez agree with regarding humanities majors? A. They have their limitations. B. They help people fit in well. C. They fail to make people earn a lot. D. They can guarantee people’s survival. 14. What does the celebrity example show? A. Impolite words ruin careers easily. B. Sincerity restores one’s reputation. C. Public relations are of vital importance. D. Communication-based jobs are difficult. 15. What does the author suggest people do? A. Look beyond materialism. B. Hold on to inner passions. C. Explore meaningful subjects. D. Shoulder social responsibilities. 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Have you ever heard someone being described as conscientious (认真负责的)? ____16____ Experts have found that conscientious people are more likely to do well in their work and have good relationships with other people. What does conscientious mean? ____17____ When you do something, you want to do it to the best of your ability. It also means not giving up when things get tough and doing tasks without being asked to do them. You can spot a conscientious person because they follow the rules, do their homework early and to the highest standard they can. They stick with tasks even when they’re hard, and are responsible and careful. They might help others without being asked. Don’t give up. Carrying on with tasks and staying motivated is a key part of being conscientious. ____18____ “Sticking with things doesn’t mean working non-stop. It means finding ways to keep moving forward, even if it’s a small step at a time,” says child psychotherapist Laura Gwilt. When something gets tricky, it’s important to fight the urge to quit. “When you continue instead of giving up, you show yourself that effort matters as much as the outcome,” says Gwilt. “____19____ Each time you finish something challenging, you feel proud, and that builds confidence.” ____20____ Another step you can take to be more conscientious is to stick with the plans that you make. If you have arranged to go to a new club or you have planned to do your homework when you get home from school, make it happen. Following through on your plans also shows your friends, family and teachers that you are reliable and trustworthy — important skills that are very useful as you grow up. A. Make plans and stick with them. B. Conscientiousness is a skill or quality. C. Show reliability to your friends and family. D. It can be tricky, but there are ways to make it easier. E. So there is an urgent need for you to focus on all your mistakes. F. It helps you understand that mistakes are a normal part of learning. G. Being conscientious means wanting to do your work or your duty well. 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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I remember one particular day when everything went wrong.

His math teacher, Mr. Bob, was an elderly man in his fifties. Every math class, Mr. Bob checked the homework assigned the day before at first. He asked students to answer questions in seat order, and each student only needed to answer one specific question based on their seat. Therefore, Bruce would figure out which question he had to answer beforehand and only finish that one question for homework. One Monday morning, Mr. Bob’s math class was the first period. Bruce walked into the classroom with a confident smile. He had already worked out the exact question he would be asked. “It’s a simple equation (方程),” he thought to himself, “I can definitely answer it right.” But when he sat down, he noticed something unusual. Lily, who sat right in front of him, didn’t show up. Bruce’s heart suddenly sank. Since Lily was absent, the teacher would skip her seat, which meant he would have to answer the question supposed to be Lily’s. Panic rushed through Bruce’s body. He tried to think hard, but his mind went completely blank. The more he panicked, the more he couldn’t remember anything he had learned in math class. Mr. Bob started checking homework from the front of the classroom. Bruce could hear the teacher’s footsteps getting closer and closer. He held his pen tightly, his hands sweating. “Please, slow down,” he whispered to himself. But time didn’t stop. After about five minutes, Mr. Bob stood right next to Bruce’s desk. “Bruce, could you please answer the question for Lily’s seat today?” Mr. Bob said in a calm voice. Bruce’s face turned red. He answered, “I... I got nothing.” To his surprise, Mr. Bob’s eyes lit up. He excitedly said, “That’s correct! The answer is zero. You did a great job solving such a difficult question!” Bruce was shocked. He just sat there, feeling a mix of relief and guilt. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Bruce knew that he didn’t deserve Mr. Bob’s praise. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After that conversation, Bruce changed his attitude to math. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 高二年级期末检测 英语 试卷共8页，47小题，满分120分，考试用时120分钟 注意事项： 1．答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号等填写在答题卡指定位置上。 2．回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 3．考生必须保持答题卡的整洁。考试结束后，请将答题卡交回。 第二部分 阅读(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A 【1~3题答案】 【答案】1.

I’d like to praise both teams for their fantastic performance. All debaters spoke fluently, presented clear logic and offered persuasive examples, bringing us a thought-provoking discussion. The positive side believes online friends can be real friends, as heartfelt chats online can form genuine emotional connections. The opposite side argues without face-to-face interaction, online friendship lacks depth and cannot be counted as true friendship. No matter which opinion you support, we’ve all gained a lot from this debate. Thank you! 第二节(满分25分) 【47题答案】 【答案】 Bruce knew that he didn’t deserve Mr. Bob’s praise. His heart was filled with strong guilt because he had known nothing about the question and got lucky for a random answer. Unable to bear the inner unease any longer, Bruce walked up to Mr. Bob after class. He honestly admitted his trick of only finishing his assigned question and confessed that he had answered nothing on purpose out of panic. Instead of scolding him, Mr. Bob smiled gently and told Bruce he had already seen through his little trick. He chose to praise Bruce just to give him a chance to correct his mistake. After that conversation, Bruce changed his attitude to math. He no longer only did limited homework to cope with in-class checks. Instead, he carefully finished all math exercises and reviewed what he had learned every day. Whenever he met difficult problems, he turned to Mr. Bob for advice patiently. Gradually, his math grades improved steadily. More importantly, he gained true confidence in math learning and understood that honest effort is the only way to make progress. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
