Like many, I felt pressure from my parents and teachers to go to university and study something academic. With top grades I received at the end of high school, I was almost able to enter any course of my pick. Yet the thought of spending the next few years facing the four walls of a classroom caused a lump(肿块) in my throat.
After a year majoring in photography at university, which was not just what I expected, I made the decision to take a break and go on a gap year. In fact, I gained more knowledge in the real world in four months than I did from my entire schooling, but most importantly, I learnt so much about myself.
One day, my posted photos were noticed by Topdeck Travel, and they asked if they could use some of my travel pictures for their posters. This really was the beginning of my career. I began developing my relationship with Topdeck Travel, and before long, I got my first paid travel overseas to take photographs.
Soon I reached the point where I had to make a decision—either to play it safe, go back to university and settle down like everyone else, or to follow my heart and go my own way—a path with an uncertain future. I chose the latter, and it was the scariest and best decision I had ever made.
Five years after leaving school, I might not have a university degree, a well-paid job, a husband or a house with a white fence. Instead, I’m sitting at my office, with a café by a beach at Goa, India. As I stare past my laptop screen at the sun setting beyond the waves, a salty breeze touches my face.
To me, success is about pursuing my dreams and creating my own path instead of trying to follow someone else’s. Somehow, I feel like my life is exactly where it is meant to be.

Ⅲ. 背景知识阅读。
Every year in America, high school students who want to go to college take a national examination called the Scholastic Assessment Test (学术能力评估测试), or SAT in a shortened way. Their score is an important factor in determining which colleges will admit them or whether any will be admitted at all. Furthermore, 80-100 hours of volunteering working experience are also taken as an essential item when deciding whether a student is qualified. Besides, students should offer their school performance reports from junior to senior high school. Moreover, students are to write an essay to make an overall summary about their own abilities, talents or interests. In brief, it is not so easy to get admitted into a key university in America.

There are as many kinds of careers as there are people. They vary greatly in the type of work involved(涉及) and in the ways they influence a person’s life. The kind of career you have can affect your life in many ways. By making wise decisions concerning your career, you can help yourself build the life you want. To do that, you need as much information as possible. The more you know about yourself, the better able you will be to choose a satisfying career.
What do people hope to obtain from a career Some people desire a high income. Some hope for fame. Others seek for adventure. Still others intend to serve people and make the world a better place. Before you begin to explore career fields, you should determine your values, your interests, and your aptitudes that will make you competent for your future work. Most people are happiest in jobs that fit their values, interests, and skills. Each person has many values, which vary in strength. For example, money is the strongest value for some people—that is, wealth is more important to them than anything else. As a result, they focus their thoughts, behaviour, and emotions on the goal of earning a high income. Other values include devoting to religion, taking risks, spending time with family, and helping others.
Before making a career decision, you can ask yourself what is most important to you and examine your beliefs to better know your values. For example, is it important to you to work as a member of a team Or would you rather be in charge or work alone If working alone or being in charge is important to you, independence is probably one of your primary values.

B. Meeting inner demands.
C. Developing interests and skills.
D. Contributing to forming values.

Twenty-five years ago, most young Britons wanted a career in law, to be a doctor, or, if they were creative enough, to take up singing. But today, things stand differently.
According to a survey by Tesco Mobile, a UK company, the “dream job” of young people aged between 16 and 25 in the UK is a video blogger, or “vlogger”. The survey, carried out among 1,002 people, found that as much as 40 percent of them put vlogger as their number one choice on a list of ideal careers.
This change is undoubtedly as a result of the Internet and social media. They have made it so much easier to reach audience of the world, without having to enter a career in show business in the traditional way.
In the past, the biggest stars were trained by the Hollywood studios; now, anyone with a computer camera can become a star. Vloggers are the big stars of today because they are normal people interacting with their fans about everyday life.
However, what people see is only the bright side of being a vlogger and they fail to notice the fact that only those who are successful earn fame and fortune. For every success there are hundreds of others who never get off the starting line. There are the dreams that come true and the dreams that remain dreams forever.
Although being vloggers is popular, some young people choose to follow careers that don’t necessarily earn them fame, but allow them to make good use of the Internet to share their hobbies. Young Israeli David Leshaw, for example, runs a business called the Finishers Club. It’s an online platform for runners to keep a record of their races. His job allows him to express his enthusiasm, and is always a learning experience. And that’s enough for him.
4. What is the passage mainly about
A. Most young Britons choose to be vloggers as their job.
B. The Internet is influencing young Britons’ career choice.
C. The Internet is taking the place of traditional studios.
D. Young Britons can not find jobs without the Internet.
解析:主旨大意题。第三段中的“This change is undoubtedly as a result of the Internet and social media.”是全文的主旨句,结合全文内容可知,这篇文章主要讲了互联网正在影响英国年轻人的职业选择。故选B。
答案:B
5. Why do more and more young Britons choose to be vloggers
A. Vloggers can earn little fame and money on the Internet.
B. There is too much competition in the traditional show business.
C. The Internet makes it convenient to become vloggers.
D. Anyone with a computer will surely become a star.
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段“This change is undoubtedly as a result of the Internet and social media. They have made it so much easier to reach audience of the world, without having to enter a career in show business in the traditional way.”推断出互联网使成为视频博主变得很方便。故选C。
答案:C
6. What can we infer from paragraph 5
A. Only a few vloggers can be successful.
B. A vlogger can not earn fame or fortune.
C. People often see the bright side of being a vlogger.
D. Dreams will always remain to be dreams.
解析:推理判断题。根据第五段中“For every success there are hundreds of others who never get off the starting line. There are the dreams that come true and the dreams that remain dreams forever.”推知,只有少许视频博主可以成功。故选A。
答案:A
7. What do young people like David do on the Internet
A. Learn from others.
B. Become an online hit.
C. Hold running races.
D. Mix jobs with hobbies.
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Young Israeli David Leshaw, for example, runs a business called the Finishers Club. It’s an online platform for runners to keep a record of their races. His job allows him to express his enthusiasm, and is always a learning experience.”可推知像David这样的年轻人把工作和业余爱好结合在一起。故选D。
答案:D
C
Exploring work possibilities is quite an emotional challenge for people. The desire to simplify the process by focusing on one attractive option, instead of keeping your eyes open for even more possibilities to add to your list, can be very strong. Naturally, we’d rather make a decision and get on with our lives. 8. However, putting off a decision until after you have done your detective work can pay off in ways you can’t even imagine now. So, learn to explore work possibilities as though it was a treasure hunt.
Uncertainty is not the only challenge holding you back. 9. You may be unwilling to ask strangers about their work or to ask your colleagues for help because you fear rejection. Or, you may fear failure. Don’t let these fears block your search. Remember that one definition of success is “doing your very best to realise your dreams”. 10.
There are three ways to learn about work possibilities that you already know exist and to discover more possibilities.
●The easiest and quickest way is to read career information materials available on the Internet, in newspapers and magazines.
●11. They can give you an “insider’s opinion”. Spend your time with people as constructively as possible by asking about the local situation or other things not covered in print materials.
●The best way to learn about the work is to “try it on for size” by getting some related experience.
12. That greatly increases your ability to “mix and match” information later on to discover, or even create, work possibilities that would be ideal for you.
A. Identify your own ability.
B. Explore as many options as possible.
C. We wouldn’t like to live with uncertainty.
D. The only way you can fail is to do nothing.
E. Talk to people who are knowledgeable about the work.
F. The following is what you should do to explore work possibilities.
G. Fear is most likely the biggest emotional challenge to successful career building.
8. 解析:根据上文“Naturally, we’d rather make a decision and get on with our lives.”可知,当然,我们宁愿做决定,继续我们的生活。空处承接上文,C选项“我们不想生活在不确定之中”切题。故选C。
答案:C
9. 解析:根据下文“You may be unwilling to ask strangers about their work or to ask your colleagues for help because you fear rejection.”可知,你可能不愿意向陌生人询问他们的工作或向同事求助,因为你害怕被拒绝。空处承接下文,G选项“恐惧很可能是成功的职业生涯中最大的情感挑战”切题。故选G。
答案:G
10. 解析:空处是对上文的总结。根据上文“Remember that one definition of success is ‘doing your very best to realise your dreams’.”可知,成功的一个定义是尽最大努力实现你的梦想。所以D选项“你失败的唯一方式就是什么都不做”切题。故选D。
答案:D
11. 解析:根据下文“They can give you an ‘insider’s opinion’.”可知,他们可以给你一个“局内人的意见”。所以本段在说和那些对工作很了解的人谈谈。E选项“和那些对工作很了解的人谈谈”切题。故选E。
答案:E
12. 解析:根据上文“The best way to learn about the work is to ‘try it on for size’ by getting some related experience.”可知,了解某项工作的最佳方法是通过获得相关经验来亲身尝试。根据下文“That greatly increases your ability to ‘mix and match’ information later on to discover, or even create, work possibilities that would be ideal for you.”可知,这大大提高了你以后“混合和匹配”信息的能力,以便发现甚至创造对你来说非常理想的工作可能性。空处承上启下。B选项“探索尽可能多的选择”切题。 故选B。
答案:B

Have you ever been asked the question “What do you want to be when you grow up ” I am someone who’s 1 been able to answer the question. The problem wasn’t that I didn’t have any 2 —it was that I had too many. In high school, I liked English, Math and Art and I built websites and I played the guitar. This continued after my high school, 3 at a certain point, I started to get bored. And usually I would try and 4 anyway, because I had already devoted so much time and energy and sometimes money to this field. But eventually this sense of 5 would get to be too much. And I would have to let it go.
This pattern caused me a lot of 6 for two reasons. The first was that I wasn’t sure how I was going to turn any of this into a career. I thought that I would eventually have to pick one thing, deny all of my other passions. The 7 reason was that I worried that there was something wrong with this, and something wrong with me for being unable to stick with anything. I was afraid of commitment. 8 , there is nothing wrong with me. I am just a multipotentialite(多重潜能者). A multipotentialite is someone 9 many interests and creative pursuits.

Have you ever felt the desire to move and experience another beautiful part of the country This could be the perfect career change for you.
The National Trust in England is looking for someone to work as a ranger(护林员) on the Fame Islands, one of Britain’s oldest nature reserves located just off the North umber land coast.
For $22,668 a year, the successful applicant will be required to look after the local wildlife, including the 200 seal pups which are born on the islands each year and 37,000 pairs of puffins.
The ranger will get the chance to work in some of the nation’s most attractive places and spaces—impressive sunrises a one-minute ride and one of England’s largest seal colonies on his doorstep. But like every job, it doesn’t come without a downside. Apart from avoiding the dive-bombing Arctic terns (燕鸥), there is no running water on the island and there will be severe storms to fight with during the spring.
Along with a love of nature and the outdoors, the National Trust is looking for “an excellent team player” who has experience in conservation work. This job isn’t the normal 9 to 5, so being good at PowerPoint isn’t a must. With 50,000 annual visitors every year, you really need to be able to get on with people and show them how they can participate to help nature.

1. Which one can replace the word“downside” in paragraph 4
A. Pay drop. B. Disadvantage.

解析:词义猜测题。上文“The ranger will get the chance to work in some of the nation’s most attractive places and spaces—impressive sunrises a one-minute ride and one of England’s largest seal colonies on his doorstep.”介绍了这个工作的优点,下文“Apart from avoiding the dive-bombing Arctic terns, there is no running water on the island and there will be severe storms to fight with during the spring.”介绍的是该工作的缺点。前后之间用but连接,表示转折。由此可知,downside应是“不足,缺点”的意思。故选B。

2. What qualification should you have to apply for the job as a ranger
A. Living a regular life.
B. Being patient of being lonely.
C. Being expert at working with PowerPoint.
D. Having experience in conservation work.

答案:D

A. A newspaper. B. A textbook.
C. The Internet. D. A news report.
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Want to apply Click here.”可知,这篇文章可能来自网络。故选C。
答案:C
B
My first job was working for a women’s clothes manufacturer at the age of 15. It made me realise what I didn’t want to do for my future employment.
The only advantage of this job was receiving a wage at the end of the week and sometimes getting clothes for free if they were to my taste. I carried on doing this for only a year, as my studies at school were getting more serious and I wanted to study more to get the right grades.
After I had finished college, my first real job was working for a play publisher in central London. I remember writing a letter of application for the post of administration for Samuel French Limited. I had put so much effort into writing it, not realising that this would be my first step in the process of finding out what I really wanted to do for my future employment. I didn’t think I would get the job, but as it turned out, I got a telephone call quickly and started a week later. I remember being excited that I would be working for a publisher in London. Although I had thought I would prefer to work for a book publisher, a play publisher was just as enjoyable.
Looking back now, not all first jobs turn out to be enjoyable. Some of my friends worked in supermarkets while they were at college just to earn a bit of money. I remember thinking how much happier I felt working in a clothes factory than in a supermarket.
Years later, I can see how good it is to experience work at an early age, as it gives people the opportunity to decide what kind of career will be most suitable for them one day. The boring task of a job will make a person want to pursue an education to get into the right type of employment, which was what I had realised in the end.
4. Why did the author do her first job for only a year
A. The clothes made there didn’t suit her taste.
B. She really didn’t like such a boring job.
C. She wanted to get the right grades at school.
D. She didn’t get well paid at the end of the week.

答案:C
5. What can we learn from the third paragraph
A. The author was confident to get the first job.
B. Samuel French Limited liked her appearance.
C. It is quite easy to write an application letter.
D. Working for a book publisher was once attractive to her.
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Although I had thought I would prefer to work for a book publisher, a play publisher was just as enjoyable.”可知,图书出版工作曾对作者有吸引力,因为这正是她最初想从事的职业。故选D。
答案:D
6. What can be inferred from the passage about the author
A. She took her first job in order to support her poor family.
B. She realised what her first job meant to her future employment.
C. She had a great interest in her first job in a clothes factory.
D. She thought her friends’ job in supermarkets was more interesting.
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“... I can see how good it is to experience work at an early age, as it gives people the opportunity to decide what kind of career will be most suitable for them one day.”可知,作者认为第一份工作给其之后工作带来了巨大影响。故选B。
答案:B
7. What would be the best title for the passage
A. My Experience in a Clothes Factory
B. The Qualities of a Play Publisher
C. Importance of Early Work Experience
D. The Secrets to Getting the Right Grades
解析:主旨大意题。作者通过讲述自己的亲身经历告诉我们,初次工作的经历与体验对今后的职业发展至关重要。故选C。
答案:C
Ⅵ. 完形填空。
The purpose of a letter of application is to help you to “sell” yourself. It should state 1 the job you want, and should tell what your abilities are and what you have 2 . It should be simple, human, personal and brief without 3 out any necessary facts.
In writing a letter of application, keep in mind that the things a possible employer is most 4 to want to know about are your application, your achievements and your aims. The opening paragraph is perhaps the most important part. 5 the first few sentences fail to win the reader s attention, the rest of the letter may not be 6 at all. Try to key your opening remarks to the needs or interests of the employer, not 7 your own needs or desires. For example, instead of beginning with “I saw your 8 in today’s newspaper”, you might say “I have made a careful study of your advertising during the past six months” or “I have made a survey in my neighbourhood to find out how many housewives 9 your product and why they like it.”
Try to avoid generalities. Be clear about the kind of job for which you are now 10 . College graduates looking for their first positions often ask “What can I provide in a letter Employers want experience, which, naturally, no 11 has.” The answer is that everything you have ever done is 12 .
It is important to write a good strong closing remark for your letter. 13 a specific request for an interview or give the possible employer something definite to do or expect. An excellent 14 is to enclose a stamped, self-addressed envelope with your letter. That makes it 15 for a possible employer to get in touch with you.

It feels like every time my mother and I start to have a conversation, it turns into an argument. We talk about something as simple as dinner plans and suddenly, my mother will push the conversation into World War 3. She’ll talk about my lack of a bright future because I don’t plan to be a doctor. And much to her disappointment, I don’t want to do any job related to science, either. In fact, when I was pushed to say that I planned to major(主修) in English and communications, she nearly had a heart attack.
“Why can’t you be like my co-worker’s son ” she bemoans all the time. Her co-worker’s son received a four-year scholarship and is now earning 70,000 dollars a year as an engineer. I don’t know what to answer except that I simply can’t be like Mr. Perfect as I’ve called the unnamed co-worker’s son. I can’t be like him. I’m the type of person who loves to help out in the community, write until the sun goes down, and most of all, wants to achieve a career because I love it, not because of fame(名声) or salary.
I understand why my mother is worried about my future major. I’ve seen my mother struggle to raise me on her small salary and work long hours. She leaves the house around 6:30 a.m. and usually comes home around 5 p.m. or even 6 p.m. However, I want her to know that by becoming a doctor, it doesn’t mean I’ll be successful. I’d rather follow my dreams and create my own future.

(2021年·全国乙卷)
During an interview for one of my books, my interviewer said something I still think about often. Annoyed by the level of distraction(干扰) in his open office, he said, “That’s why I have a membership at the coworking space across the street—so I can focus.” His comment struck me as strange. After all, coworking spaces also typically use an open office layout(布局). But I recently came across a study that shows why his approach works.
The researchers examined various levels of noise on participants as they completed tests of creative thinking. They were randomly divided into four groups and exposed to various noise levels in the background, from total silence to 50 decibels(分贝), 70 decibels, and 85 decibels. The differences between most of the groups were statistically insignificant; however, the participants in the 70 decibels group—those exposed to a level of noise similar to background chatter in a coffee shop—significantly outperformed the other groups. Since the effects were small, this may suggest that our creative thinking does not differ that much in response to total silence and 85 decibels of background noise.
But since the results at 70 decibels were significant, the study also suggests that the right level of background noise—not too loud and not total silence—may actually improve one’s creative thinking ability. The right level of background noise may interrupt our normal patterns of thinking just enough to allow our imaginations to wander, without making it impossible to focus. This kind of “distracted focus” appears to be the best state for working on creative tasks.
So why do so many of us hate our open offices The problem may be that, in our offices, we can’t stop ourselves from getting drawn into others’ conversations while we’re trying to focus. Indeed, the researchers found that face-to-face interactions and conversations affect the creative process, and yet a coworking space or a coffee shop provides a certain level of noise while also providing freedom from interruptions.
28. Why does the interviewer prefer a coworking space
A. It helps him concentrate.
B. It blocks out background noise.
C. It has a pleasant atmosphere.
D. It encourages face-to-face interactions.
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中采访者说的话“That’s why I have a membership at the coworking space across the street—so I can focus.”可知,采访者觉得共享办公空间能让其更加集中注意力。
答案:A
29. Which level of background noise may promote creative thinking ability
A. Total silence.
B. 50 decibels.
C. 70 decibels.
D. 85 decibels.
解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的“however, the participants in the 70 decibels group—those exposed to a level of noise similar to background chatter in a coffee shop—significantly outperformed the other groups”可知,70分贝的噪声更有助于促进人们的创造性思维。
答案:C
30. What makes an open office unwelcome to many people
A. Personal privacy unprotected.
B. Limited working space.
C. Restrictions on group discussion.
D. Constant interruptions.
解析:细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“The problem may be that,in our offices, we can’t stop ourselves from getting drawn into others’ conversations while we’re trying to focus.”可知,在开放的办公室,人们很容易被别人打扰。
答案:D
31. What can we infer about the author from the text
A. He’s a news reporter.
B. He’s an office manager.
C. He’s a professional designer.
D. He’s a published writer.
解析:推理判断题。 根据第一段第一句“During an interview for one of my books, my interviewer said something I still think about often.”可推知,作者是一名作家。
答案:D
D
It is believed that each individual, regardless of race or religion, has a purpose in life, and until you discover what your purpose is, you will not find true happiness, nor true job satisfaction. This doesn’t mean you won’t be successful. It just means you won’t be happy until you are moving towards your true purpose.
Unfortunately, school systems do very little to help students discover their true career. This is where online personality tests and career tests can help.
Online personality tests and career tests can help you better understand what type of work you should be doing to achieve job satisfaction, happiness, and success. Personality tests are most useful in giving you insight into “how” your personality compares to others and “how” you like to work. In particular, if you frequently experience difficulty working with others, or getting their support and cooperation, a really good personality test would show you how to get along better.
While personality tests are very useful at showing you how you like to work and how you like your work environment, they are not really designed to show you “what” type of work is right for you. That is where career interest tests come in. They will help you discover what your true interests are, and what type of work you will be passionate about.
But back to personality tests. The most well-established personality tests are the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, and the Enneagram.
32. What should a person do to achieve true job satisfaction
A. Find the true purpose in life.
B. Choose the best work.
C. Get along well with others.
D. Adapt to the work environment.
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中的“... until you discover what your purpose is, you will not find true happiness, nor true job satisfaction.”可知,直到你找到你的人生目标,你才会找到真正的幸福,才能有真正的工作满足感。故选A。
答案:A
33. What can online personality tests help a job-hunter do
A. Find a good job.
B. Further understand himself/herself.
C. Develop more hobbies.
D. Change life attitudes.
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段中“Personality tests are most useful in giving you insight into ‘how’ your personality compares to others and ‘how’ you like to work.”可知,性格测验可以让一个人更好地了解自己。故选B。
答案:B
34. What’s the author’s purpose in writing this passage
A. To present some popular online personality tests.
B. To tell readers about online personality and career tests.
C. To tell the differences between some popular online tests.
D. To persuade people to take online personality or career tests.
解析:主旨大意题。由全文内容可知,作者写本文的目的是鼓励我们了解并参与网上的性格和职业兴趣测验。故选D。
答案:D
35. What will the writer most probably talk about next
A. The differences between personality tests and career tests.
B. The similarities between personality tests and career tests.
C. The reasons why personality and career tests are popular.
D. The details of the two most well-established personality tests.
解析:推理判断题。根据文章结构,最后一段之前的内容为我们讲述了两种测验的重要性及用途,由最后一段“But back to personality tests. The most well-established personality tests are ...”可知,作者接下来可能是要向我们介绍这两种做得比较好的性格测验。故选D。
答案:D

He thought about asking his parents for money, but soon gave up because he knew it wouldn’t happen.
Earning money seemed to be the only way. So he had to find a job first. He decided to turn to Mr. Jackie for advice, who usually had opinions in most things. “Well, you can start right here. The floor needs cleaning and my car needs washing.” Then Tom’s part-time jobs began. For two months he worked every day after finishing his homework. He was surprised by a variety of jobs people found for him to do. He could hardly remember how many cars he had washed and how many windows he had cleaned, but he knew his dream would soon come true because the money kept increasing. The day finally came when he counted all the money he earned and found nearly 100 dollars. He couldn’t wait to go down to the shop to buy his dream bike.
It was by hard work that he bought the bike he had been dreaming of. So he cherished it very much. He had achieved what he thought was impossible, and that was more valuable than the bike.

All of his friends admired him for his hard work, expressing that they would learn from him—achieving their goals without giving up. After going back home, Tom was encouraged and required by his parents to thank Mr. Jackie and others for the part-time jobs they offered. Thinking of many surprising jobs, Tom understood all of them, and was moved to tears.
