UNIT 5 LAUNCHING YOUR CAREER
背景介绍
职业选择是个人对于自己就业方向的挑战和确定,是人们真正进入社会生活领域的重要环节。正确的职业选择将有利于发挥自己的天赋,创造更大的成就,实现个人目标。
The saying “Choose a job you love, and you'll never have to work a day in your life” puts a great deal of pressure on people who are trying to choose a right career.Can you really find one that is so enjoyable that it won't even feel like work
Well, no matter how much effort you put into picking an occupation, there are days when it will feel like work.However, sometimes you will think “I would do this even if I didn't get paid.”The trick is to choose a career that has many more great days than ones that aren't so great.
First, what matters most in finding a job is to learn as much as possible about yourself, for example, your advantages and disadvantages.If you think you know all there is to know, the results of self-assessment will be eye-opening.A career development professional, for example, a career adviser, can help you with this step but don't be discouraged if you can't afford to hire one.
Next, you should learn about the occupations on your list.The results of your self-assessment will include a list of occupations that are suitable for you, but the quest(追求) for the right career doesn't end here.While some of the occupations may be nearly perfect for you, others may be all wrong.Even though they are a good match for your personality type, interests, values and aptitude, they may be unsuitable in other ways.For example, the job duties may not appeal to you, or the required education or training could be more than you are willing to complete.
The third is to make an informed decision by exploring each of the careers on you list.Read descriptions of the occupations and ignore your preconceived(事先形成的) ideas.Unless you have personal experience or have done prior research, there's still a lot to learn before you can decide whether a career would be right for you.
After narrowing down your list to just a few careers, it is time to dig a little deeper.Continue your research by conducting informational interviews with people who take up the occupations you are seriously considering.Asking their advice can help you make a wiser decision.
1.According to the passage, what is the most important factor as to finding a career
Knowing your own strengths and weaknesses.
解析:根据第三段中的“what matters most in finding a job is to learn as much as possible about yourself... disadvantage”可知,在找工作时,最重要的是要了解自己,如自己的优点和缺点。
2.Which can be the best title for the passage B
A.How to Make an Informed Decision
B.How to Choose a Right Career
C.How to Know Yourself Better
D.How to Make a List of Careers
解析:标题归纳题。通读全文可知,作者主要针对如何找到一份适合自己的职业提出了几项建议,故B项适合作文章标题。故选B。

1.career aptitude test职业能力倾向测验
职业能力倾向测验是能力(倾向)测验的一种。它通过系统的测试过程和评分标准,对被测试者的组织管理、社会交往、个性特点、职业倾向、发展潜能等多种素质进行综合评价。这种测验旨在发现被测试者更感兴趣、更有潜力的学习或职业方向,为其在学习和工作上的选择提供参考。
2.EQ是Emotional Quotient的英文缩写,意思是“情感商数”,简称“情商”,是一个人自我情绪管理以及管理他人情绪的能力指数,它代表的是一个人的情绪智力。第一个使用“EQ”这个术语的人是心理学家鲁文·巴昂(Reuven Bar-On),他在1988年设计了一份专门测验EQ的问卷,根据他的定义,EQ包括那些能影响我们适应环境的情绪及社交能力,其中有五大项。(1)自我EQ。(2)人际EQ。(3)适应力。(4)压力管理能力。(5)一般情绪状态(乐观度、快乐感)。

1.As an adult, one of the first questions you are asked when meeting someone new is, “What do you do?”
作为一个成年人,当你遇到一个新朋友时,首先被问的问题之一是:“你是做什么的?”
J?句式分析
(1)句中one of the first questions 作主语,is是系动词,“What do you do?”在句中作表语。you are asked when meeting someone new为定语从句,修饰限定先行词one of the first questions。
(2)when meeting someone new为时间状语从句的省略。完整形式为when you are meeting someone new。在英语中,当状语从句的主语与主句的主语一致或从句的主语为it,同时从句谓语又含有系动词be时,可将从句的主语和系动词be一同省略,而保留原连词,形成“连词+分词(或形容词)”的形式。

2.含有多个简单句的并列句;

找出下列句中的主语、谓语和宾语
①Holding the 3rd China International Import Expo during COVID-19 pandemic prevention and control shows China's determination to further open up its market and to continue to contribute to world economic recovery and development.
主语: Holding the 3rd China International Import Expo(动名词短语)
谓语: shows
宾语: determination
②Noted oil painter Zhao Peizhi, born in Northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur autonomous region, was exposed to the rich history and cultures of various ethnic groups living in the area during childhood.
主语: painter
谓语: was exposed to
宾语: history and cultures
二、句子的三种基本类型
如果按照句子的结构分类,英文句子可分为三个类别:简单句(Simple Sentence)、并列句(Compound Sentence)和复合句(Complex Sentence)。这里所说的结构,主要是指句子中主语和谓语之间所构成的关系。
1.简单句(Simple Sentence)
简单句只有一个主谓结构。句子可能有两个或更多的主语,也可能有两个或更多的谓语,但是句子中的主谓关系只有一个。简单句还可以有定语、状语等句子成分。
(2022·全国新高考Ⅰ卷)Volunteers will wash,cut, and freeze or dry them for use in meals down the road.
志愿者们将清洗、切割、冷冻或干燥这些食物,以便在路上用餐。
Many young artists are advised to learn by copying the masters.
许多年轻艺术家们被建议通过临摹大师们的作品来学习。
2.并列句(Compound Sentence)
并列句有两个或两个以上存在并列、对等关系的主谓结构。从语法上讲,这些主谓结构都能独立地表达意思,没有从属关系。但是它们在意思或逻辑上有一定程度的内在联系,使它们有必要构成并列句。在并列句中,并列连词用来连接两个或几个主谓结构,即连接平行对等(即互不从属)的分句。
Computers are used widely in most countries now, and they are a sign of progress.
现在计算机在大多数国家被广泛使用,它们是进步的标志。
She is tall, while her elder sister is short.
她很高,而她姐姐很矮。
3.复合句(Complex Sentence)
复合句由一个主句(Principal Clause)和一个或一个以上的从句(Subordinate Clause)构成,即有一个(或更多)主谓结构充当句子的某一(些)成分,如主语、宾语、表语、定语、状语、同位语等。主语从句、宾语从句、表语从句、同位语从句、定语从句和状语从句都属于复合句,主句是全句的主体,通常可以独立存在,从句则只用作句子的一个成分,不能独立。
(1)主语从句
作句子主语的从句叫主语从句。主语从句通常由从属连词 that, whether,if 和连接代词 what, who, which,whatever, whoever以及连接副词 how, when, where,why等词引导。that在句中无词义,只起连接作用;连接代词和连接副词在句中既保留自己的疑问含义、又起连接作用,在从句中充当从句的成分。有时为避免句子头重脚轻,常用形式主语 it代替主语从句放于句首,而把主语从句置于句末。
What the doctor is uncertain about is whether my mother will recover from the serious disease soon.
医生不能确定的是我母亲是否会很快从这个严重的疾病中康复。
It is recommended that the project not be started until all the preparations have been made.
建议在所有准备工作完成后再开始这项工程。
(2)宾语从句
用作宾语的从句叫宾语从句。宾语从句的引导词与主语从句、表语从句大致一样,在句中可以作谓语动词或介词及非谓语动词的宾语。
that引导宾语从句时,that在句中不担任任何成分,在口语或非正式的文体中常被省去,但如从句是并列句时,第一个that可省略,其他的that不可省。
在demand,order,suggest,decide,insist,desire,request,command,doubt等表示要求、命令、建议、决定等意义的动词后,宾语从句常用“(should+)动词原形”。
who,whom, which, whose, what, when, where, why, how, whoever, whatever, whichever等引导的宾语从句相当于特殊疑问句,但句子语序要用陈述语序。
(3)表语从句
在句中作表语的从句叫表语从句。表语从句的引导词与主语从句大致一样,表语从句位于系动词后,有时用as if引导。其基本结构为:主语+系动词+从句(若用 that引导从句时,that不能省略)。
(4)同位语从句
同位语从句说明其前面的名词的具体内容。后跟同位语从句的名词有advice,demand,doubt,fact,hope,idea,information,message,news,order,problem,promise,question,request,suggestion,truth,wish,word等。
同位语从句和定语从句的区别:
that引导定语从句,充当句子成分,在从句中作宾语时可以省略;that引导同位语从句时,没有实际意义,不充当句子成分,一般不能省略。
I had no idea that you were here.(that引导同位语从句,不能省略)
我不知道你在这里。
Have you got the idea (that) this book gives you of life in ancient Greece (that引导定语从句,作宾语,可以省略)
你明白这本书让你了解古希腊的生活了吗?
(5)定语从句
定语从句(Attributive Clauses)在句中作定语,修饰一个名词或代词,被修饰的名词,词组或代词即先行词。定语从句通常出现在先行词之后,由关系词(关系代词或关系副词)引出。
(6)状语从句
状语从句(Adverbial Clause)指起副词作用的句子。可以修饰谓语、非谓语动词、定语、状语或整个句子。根据其意义可分为时间、地点、原因、条件、目的、结果、让步、方式和比较等从句。状语从句一般由从属连词引导,也可以由词组(如the moment等)引起。从句位于句首或句中时通常用逗号与主句隔开,位于句尾时可以不用逗号隔开。
