A
Most people think that personality is something you are born with. However, a new study shows that the job you choose can actually change your personality over time.
Researchers at a university in the UK followed 4,500 people for more than ten years. They found that people who worked in jobs that required a lot of social interaction became more outgoing and confident. On the other hand, people who worked alone for long periods became quieter and less interested in meeting new people.
The study also found that people who worked in creative jobs, such as designers and writers, became more open to new experiences. They were more willing to try different foods, visit new places, and learn new skills. In contrast, people in highly structured jobs, such as accountants and factory workers, became more organized but less creative.
Dr. Helen Smith, who led the research, said, “We used to believe that our personality was fixed by the age of 30. But this study proves that our jobs can shape who we are. If you want to change something about yourself, choosing the right job might be a good place to start.”
However, not everyone agrees. Some psychologists argue that people usually choose jobs that match their existing personality. They believe that a person who is naturally outgoing will choose a social job, rather than the job making them outgoing.
( )26. According to the study, how many people were followed?
A. About 450. B. About 4,500. C. About 45,000. D. About 450,000.
( )27. What happened to people who worked alone for a long time?
A. They became more confident. B. They became more creative.
C. They became quieter. D. They became more organized.
( )28. Which type of job made people more open to new experiences?
A. Teaching. B. Accounting. C. Factory work. D. Designing.
( )29. What did Dr. Helen Smith say about personality?
A. It is fixed by age 30. B. It cannot be changed.
C. Jobs can help shape it. D. Only education can change it.
( )30. What do some psychologists argue in the last paragraph?
A. That personality can change at all.
B. That the study's method was scientific.
C. That jobs are chosen to match personality.
D. That 4,500 people is a large enough sample.
B
Sign language is the main way of communication for deaf people. It's difficult for them to talk with ordinary people because they can't hear. Luckily, professional sign language translators bridge the gap between deaf people and the outside world.
Hao Shuxin regards sign language as her first language. Her parents are deaf, so she learned sign language naturally before she could speak. In 2018, she began to work as a sign language translator at a Chongqing law firm. Her main job is to provide translation services for deaf clients to help them solve legal problems.
Hao always feels stressed at work. The accuracy of legal translation is extremely important, so she explains every legal term and procedure(流程) earnestly. Besides, sign language has different “dialects” in different areas. The same meaning can be expressed with different gestures, which brings difficulties to her work. There are also grammar differences between Chinese and sign language.
To improve her professional ability, Hao has traveled to over 30 cities in China to learn local sign language habits. In her spare time, she keeps reading law books and communicating with deaf colleagues. She says she deeply understands the difficulties of deaf people, and she will try her best to help them with her professional skills.
( )31. Why does Hao feel stressed at work?
A. She can't speak standard Chinese.
B. Legal translation requires high accuracy.
C. She has to travel to many cities every day.
D. Her colleagues are not willing to help her.
( )32.What does the underlined word “earnestly” mean?
A. Wisely B. Politely C. Quickly D. Carefully
( )33. What does Hao do to improve herself?
A. She learns new languages every day.
B. She reads various law books in her free time.
C. She learns gestures from ordinary people.
D. She opens a law firm for deaf people.
( )34. Which word can best describe Hao?
A. Helpful and hard-working. B. Shy and talented.
C. Honest and outgoing. D. Patient and humorous.
( )35.What is the best title for the passage?
A. The Importance of Sign Language
B. A Bridge for the Deaf Community
C. How to Learn Sign Language Well
D. The Story of a Deaf Worker

Finding what you want to do in the future can feel like a big challenge. Many teenagers think they need to have their whole lives planned out right now. __36__ You should know your interests, your advantages(优点), and what makes you excited.

Most importantly, remember that it's okay to change your mind. __40__ Your interests will grow and change as you learn more about the world and yourself. The goal isn't to have all the answers now, but to explore, ask questions, and stay open to possibilities.

六、阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,从短文中找出能回答下列问题的答案,每小题答案不超过5个单词。
Scientists find that hard-working people can live longer than idle (不工作的) people. Career women are healthier than housewives. Evidence shows that the jobless are in poorer health than the job-holder. A report shows that whenever the unemployment rate (失业率) increases by 1%, the death rate increases by 2%. All this comes down to one point: Work is helpful to our health.
Why is work good for health? It is because work keeps people busy, away from loneliness. Researches show that people feel not only unhappy but also worried when they have nothing to do. Instead, the happiest are those who are busy. Many high achievers who love their careers feel that they are happiest when they are working hard. Work serves as a bridge between man and reality. By work, people come into contact with each other. If people take part in some activities, they can find friendship and warmth. This is helpful to health. The loss of work sometimes means the loss of everything. It affects man in spirit and makes him easy to get ill.
Besides, work gives one a sense of fulfilment (充实感). Work makes one feel his value in society. When a writer finishes his writing or a doctor successfully operates on a patient or a teacher sees his students grow, they are happy beyond words.
From the above we can know that the more you work, the happier and healthier you will be. Let us work hard and study well and live a happy and healthy life.
61. Who can live longer, hard-working people or idle people?
________________________________________________
62. What does the writer want to tell us in the first paragraph?
________________________________________________
63. How do people feel when they don't have anything to do?
________________________________________________
64. How can we find friendship and warmth in our daily life?
