When American visitor Emma joined Li Jun's small tour, she worried she would not understand his fast introductions. Li Jun noticed her nervous face and slowed down at once. He compared a bronze vessel to a heavy cooking pot so Emma could imagine its daily use in ancient kitchens.
In the restoration workshop, Master Zhou showed a cracked lacquer screen and explained that repair work could take months. Emma asked whether modern machines could finish the job in one day. Zhou smiled and said there was no easy path; a restorer must respect the object's age and test every color mix again and again.

Dear Li Jun,
Thank you for yesterday's tour and for introducing me to Master Zhou. I am a vocational student studying hotel service, but your story made me think about becoming a full-time guide.
I liked your homemade flashcards and the way you cut long sentences into short ones for our group. After I returned to the hotel, I watched a short video about a tea specialist in Fujian. The woman said she still practices leaf sorting every morning although she is already famous. Her words reminded me of Zhou's lesson: there is no easy path to success.
Could you please tell me how to apply for the part-time guide training program at the museum? I would also like to know whether beginners can visit the restoration workshop once a month to learn basic terms and watch experts at work carefully.
Patient workers like you show that success has no shortcuts at all.
Best wishes,
Emma

(D)
People often imagine success as a bright moment on stage, but skilled jobs tell a quieter story. A tour guide may speak confidently in front of twenty visitors, yet few see the nights spent rewriting scripts. An antique restorer may finish a beautiful screen, but the work begins with months of testing color and texture. Even a tea specialist who can judge leaves by touch still practices sorting every morning.
These workers share a craftsman spirit: respect the task, improve step by step, and do not chase quick fame. Hard-working habits matter as much as talent. A mechanic who labels wires clearly and an electrician who checks switches twice are also craftsmen in their own trades. They prove that success is not a lucky jump but a long road built from daily effort.
When young vocational students watch such workers, they learn to plan small goals instead of dreaming empty overnight victories. That lesson is more valuable than any short online praise or empty promise from strangers on the internet. Watching them taught me to respect quiet effort more than loud praise.
41. What does the writer think success in skilled jobs is like?
A. A stage moment without preparation B. A lucky jump without practice
C. A short online video only D. A quiet long road built from daily effort
42. What do tour guides do that visitors may not see?
A. Sell tea leaves online B. Rewrite scripts at night
C. Skip safety checks D. Avoid all preparation
43. What spirit do the workers in the passage share?
A. Empty-dream spirit B. Quick-fame spirit
C. Craftsman spirit D. Shortcut spirit
44. Which workers does the writer mention besides guides and restorers?
A. A mechanic and an electrician B. A pilot and a singer
C. A farmer and a fisherman D. A painter and a dancer
45. What should young students plan according to the writer?
A. Immediate fame B. Only online praise
C. No training at all D. Small goals instead of empty overnight victories
【答案】41.D 42.B 43.C 44.A 45.D
【导语】议论文阐释导游、修复师、茶艺师等职业的工匠精神与成功观。
【详解】41.作者认为成功是 daily effort 铺就的长路,选 D。
42.游客未必看见导游夜间改写讲解词,选 B。
43.从业者共享 craftsman spirit,选 C。
44.还提到 mechanic 与 electrician,选 A。
45.作者建议规划 small goals 而非空想一夜成功,选 D。
五、书面表达(共1题,满分10分)
你校英文职业故事栏正在征稿。请写一篇 60–80 词的英语短文,介绍一位你敬佩的技能型从业者(如导游、文物修复师、茶艺师、电工或机修工),描述其日常工作,并说明为什么成功没有捷径。

【参考范文】
I admire Master Zhou, an antique restorer at the Palace Museum. He spends hours testing paint and cleaning old metal without changing an object's history. Every day he teaches apprentices to be patient and respect tradition.
His homemade tools show that hard-working habits matter more than quick fame. Watching him, I learned there is no easy path to success, but steady practice can turn a nervous beginner into a skilled craftsman.
【词汇积累】craftsman, hard-working, homemade, patient, restore, apprentice, steady, skilled, tradition, success
【句式拓展】He is a well-known restorer who believes there is no easy path to success. Real progress comes from daily practice and respect for the work.
【点睛】首句点明职业与人物;中间写一项具体日常工作;结尾用完整句表达「成功无捷径」的观点。

(D)
People often imagine success as a bright moment on stage, but skilled jobs tell a quieter story. A tour guide may speak confidently in front of twenty visitors, yet few see the nights spent rewriting scripts. An antique restorer may finish a beautiful screen, but the work begins with months of testing color and texture. Even a tea specialist who can judge leaves by touch still practices sorting every morning.
These workers share a craftsman spirit: respect the task, improve step by step, and do not chase quick fame. Hard-working habits matter as much as talent. A mechanic who labels wires clearly and an electrician who checks switches twice are also craftsmen in their own trades. They prove that success is not a lucky jump but a long road built from daily effort.
When young vocational students watch such workers, they learn to plan small goals instead of dreaming empty overnight victories. That lesson is more valuable than any short online praise or empty promise from strangers on the internet. Watching them taught me to respect quiet effort more than loud praise.
