Different personality types are naturally suited to different types of work. If you are both outgoing and energetic, you might enjoy a career that involves interacting with people, such as sales, teaching or public relations. Outgoing people often find satisfaction in jobs where they can use their communication skills and build relationships. If you are neither outgoing nor energetic, you might prefer a quieter career that allows you to work independently. Careers in research, writing, programming or accounting often suit people who are more reserved and thoughtful. Not only your personality but also your values and interests play a role in career satisfaction. Some people value creativity and self-expression, while others value stability and structure. Neither type is better than the other — they are just different. When choosing a career, it is helpful to consider both your strengths and your weaknesses. You should also think about what kind of lifestyle you want. Some careers require long hours and frequent travel, while others offer more regular schedules and work-life balance. Remember, there is no single “right” career for everyone. The best career for you is one that fits your unique combination of personality, values and interests. It may take time to find, but it is worth the effort. 1. According to the passage, which careers might outgoing and energetic people enjoy ? A. In research and writing B. In sales and teaching C. In programming and accounting D. In farming and construction 2. What kind of careers might suit people who are neither outgoing nor energetic? A. Sales and public relations. B.

The best career fits your personality, values and interests. D. Career choice does not affect happiness. B If you have to describe yourself to someone else, what will you say? It can be difficult to see yourself from the outside, but knowing who you are, namely self-awareness, can help you understand feelings and make friendships closer. Self-awareness means having a good understanding of our own character, that is, having the ability to see ourselves. clearly. If you’re self-aware, you may know that you love playing an instrument because you do well in it, and music makes you happy, or that you prefer watching TV on your own because it helps you relax. Knowing what you like and dislike, what you do well in and what you find difficult allows you to make better decisions about friendships, schoolwork and so on. You learn to trust your own feelings more, which builds confidence. The World Health Organization says self-awareness is one of ten important life skills that help young people live happier, healthier lives. Being self-aware doesn’t mean only thinking of yourself. By understanding your own feelings, you will better understand other people too. How do you learn to be self-aware? It’s a good way to ask questions. But ask yourself questions that start with “What” instead of “Why”. So if you don’t understand why you keep arguing with a friend, ask yourself what you disagree on instead of why you’re arguing. Learning to be more self-aware is a skill, which means you learn it as you grow. So be bold and try out new things, like playing a new sport or listening to different kinds of music. Don’t be afraid to dislike something—discovering what you find difficult is a key part of learning more about yourself. 6. What is the second paragraph mainly about? A. What self-awareness is. B. What true happiness is. C. How to find true happiness. D. How to develop self-awareness. 7. Why is knowing yourself important? A. Because it will make you think more of yourself. B. Because it will make you perform better at school. C. Because it will help you learn how to ask proper questions. D. Because it will help you have a better understanding of others. 8. What’s one of the keys to becoming more self-aware? A. Being in high spirits. B. Discovering your weak points. C. Having a taste for pleasant music. D. Learning to get along well with others. 9. What can you learn according to the text? A. It can be hard for you to know yourself well from others. B. It takes a lot of time and energy to develop close friendships. C. It is important and necessary for you to make a right decision. D. It is a must to stick to your opinions when arguing with others. C Recently, a walking trend known as Color Walk has become very popular among young people in China and around the world. Color Walk doesn’t require much preparation or a specific destination(目的地). The rules are simple: before heading out, choose one color to focus on, and then walk through the streets to look for everything in that color. Many people think it helps them run away from worries and pressure and rediscover the small moments in daily life. A high school student, Jane, used Color Walk to deal with the stress from schoolwork. She went out in search of bright yellow and discovered sunflowers, warm yellow signs and the sunset. She realized how many overlooked beauties were hidden at school, and she became joyful at once. ▲ Actually, in the field of psychology(心理学), Color Walk therapy(治疗)has been used for emotional health for a long time. According to color psychologists, colors have a direct influence on the limbic system in our brain, which helps control emotions(情绪), so they play an important role in emotion management. Different colors, with their special light wavelengths(波长), cause different feelings in the nervous system. Soft colors like blue and green quickly calm people, while bright colors such as yellow and red help cheer people up. Besides, Color Walk activates areas of the brain’s prefrontal cortex responsible for attention control. By actively choosing where to focus to find the color, people can return to “the present moment”. In a world where people receive too much information daily, mental tiredness is common. Color Walk offers overworked brains a chance to reset. Since there are different lovely colors around us, why not pick one and start your “color-hunting” journey to improve your physical and mental health? 10. Which of the following WeChat Moments(朋友圈)may show Color Walk? A. B. C. D. 11. What can we infer from the passage? A. You should choose a destination before starting Color Walk. B. Jane chose bright yellow because this was her favorite color. C. Colors play an important role in managing people’s emotions. D. Color Walk may help us have better feelings and a clearer mind. 12. Which of the following is the best for ▲ ? A. How does Color Walk differ from other walking therapies? B. What do scientists think about the popularity of Color Walk? C. When is the most suitable time for people to take Color Walk? D. Why can Color Walk help cut down stress and manage emotions? 13. What’s the purpose of this passage? A. To encourage more people to try Color Walk. B. To show the problems reflected by Color Walk. C. To discuss some scientific facts behind Color Walk. D. To explain the reasons for the popularity of Color Walk. 三、任务型阅读 Nancy and Julia are 14 years old and go to school in London. But they weren’t at school last week—they were doing work experience.
