Just as the shiny brochure promised, from the moment I set foot on the Harvard campus last fall, I was exposed to an exciting and enlightening new world.
I was born and raised 1，500 miles away, in a small apartment in Jackson, Mississippi.I am the only child, so my mother overpowered me with her love.For someone who sees so much beauty in the world, she worked awfully hard to protect me from it.Television, rap music, and even basketball with the kids on the block were beyond consideration.It left me a bit bitter as a teenager, but I grew to appreciate her enormous sacrifices (牺牲)—walking me to the library every afternoon, laboring at multiple jobs to keep food on the table, and telling me stories late into the night.
When I announced the summer before my senior year of high school that I had decided to apply to Harvard, I noticed her hesitant look before a warm smile enveloped her face.I pretended not to see, but I was never able to forget it.I tried to explain my reasons for wanting to leave—to prove I was smart enough, fear of taking the path of least resistance, the classic teenage feeling of being trapped—but the words just made me sound shallow and ungrateful.
Nevertheless, I began to work on the college applications—an early one for Harvard and roughly a dozen others standing by.I knew the chance of getting into Harvard was not in my favor.To my joy, I was informed of my acceptance into Harvard three days before my birthday.That night, after all of the celebratory texts and hugs, I sat in my room and began to cry uncontrollably.
Over the course of this year, I have changed in ways I never anticipated.I think I know now why my mother let me go.Harvard has forced me to grow and take a fair look at the world, and at myself.Needless to say, I would not trade the experience for anything.

Facing the growing digital economy and new vacancies incubated in the sector such as deliverymen and livestreamers, young people, especially those born after 2000，are expressing stronger willingness for flexible work relations with companies, and also wish to become “digital workers” with flexible work locations and schedules.
A report from Peking University's National School of Development said that nearly 66 percent of surveyed employees born after 2000 prefer to work from home.The number is higher than surveyed people born after 1970, with about 54.4 percent of them preferring the new way.
“The Internet can do anything for me.I check emails from my clients and submit my proposals, and then we discuss plans via teleconference.I love working from home actually，” said Mi Lu, a 28-year-old new media operator in Beijing.“It's a much cooler and more convenient thing.We work everywhere, perhaps in a café， or on a bullet train or even on the table of a restaurant.”
Hu Jiayin, an associate professor in Peking University's National School of Development, concluded that their survey shows that young people not only desire freedom in their jobs, but they also wish for stability in their careers because of uncertainties brought by the fast-changing digital economy.
“But the development of the digital economy also brings great uncertainties and a sense of insecurity to the working population, so we've found some interesting things during our surveys that over 30 percent of job seekers we've surveyed wish to have a stable job at state-owned companies，” she added.
Li Qiang, vice-president of a recruitment company, said that the greatest risk to those seeking flexible work is whether the company pays the salary fully and on time.“It's necessary for job seekers to set up a long-term development plan, rather than be shortsighted.” He added that companies may bear risks that flexible employees can't deliver high-quality work in a limited time period, which requires the companies to establish a sound work delivery standard to help evaluate employee performance.

D．The development of the digital economy is a double-edged sword for job seekers.

In internships (实习期) and jobs that I, now a career woman, have ever had, I've watched professionals, experienced and brand-new alike, conduct interviews or present themselves in meetings, and many of them appear unprepared and lack confidence.I think they would all benefit from an acting class.
A central technique an acting class can equip you with is improvisation (即兴表演).Essentially, skills such as the improvisation principle of “Yes, and...” are beneficial for thinking on your feet. When someone suggests a new idea, you say “Yes” and run with the suggestion.A professional familiar with this technique can entertain and value the contributions of others, promoting a free -flowing exchange of ideas, which inspires a positive, creative spirit that the corporate world longs for.
Both college students and professionals might benefit from the voice and movement training.I used to be afraid of the voice and movement part of the acting class.My acting teacher would make us do push-ups and yoga.Then, we'd stand up and moan (呻吟) with varying degrees of voices.I hated this, and lots of other people did, too.But the product of this training is an individual who stands tall and speaks clearly and loudly.Plus, I still use the stretches and warm-ups in class to calm my nerves before presentations.
As an actor, you are a student of human behaviour.With that, when you receive a text, you explore your character.Even if you're playing a villain (反派角色), you have to approach your character from where it stands.Such an outlook makes for a wonderful leader, one that understands co-workers' situations and treats them with politeness and understanding.
I've borne countless “What are you going to do with a theater degree？” speeches from family and friends.But ultimately, these soft skills are incredibly valuable for young professionals. Acting training will set you apart from the pack.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇议论文。文章讨论了表演课程中的技能如即兴表演、声音和动作训练对专业人士工作能力的提升作用，推荐年轻人参加表演课。
√
32．What effect does the principle of “Yes, and...” have on professionals following it
A．It generates positive suggestions.
B．It brings about smooth interaction.
C．It offers them good entertainment value.
D．It helps them recognize their own contributions.
解析：推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Essentially，skills such as the...exchange of ideas”可推知，该原则会给专业人士带来流畅的互动。
√
33．What can we learn from the author's experience in paragraph 3
A．She is still very nervous of her acting teacher.
B．She is addicted to working on her physical fitness.
C．The training has made her braver and more patient.
D．The training has enhanced her presentation abilities.
解析：推理判断题。根据第三段中的“But the product of this training...calm my nerves before presentations.”可推知，这些训练提高了她的演讲能力。
√
34．What does the author want to say by mentioning exploring characters
A．It is a big challenge for most of the student actors.
B．It makes the study of human behavior much easier.
C．It can help people put themselves in others' shoes.
D．It may improve the relationship between co-workers.
解析： 细节理解题。根据第四段内容可知，探索角色有助于人们换位思考。
√
35．What does the author advise young professionals to do
A．Take acting classes.
B．Pursue acting careers.
C．Obtain higher degrees.
D．Consult family and friends.
解析： 推理判断题。通读全文，并根据最后一段中的“But ultimately，these soft skills...from the pack.”可知，作者建议年轻专业人士参加表演课程。

阅读下面的材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I felt so nervous.It was the day of my interview.I woke up early just to make sure I would have time to get prepared.It felt like a normal Monday, but for me, this day was very important.There was a lot of pressure.
After showering, I put on the outfit I had carefully chosen and laid out the night before.I looked at my reflection in the mirror.“You can do this，” I encouraged myself.I ate breakfast and fed my cat.I made my way to the bus stop and waited patiently.Aside from the rapid tapping of my right foot, no one could tell that I was so nervous.
When I arrived at my stop, I walked to the office.The building was so tall and I felt small in its shadow.But I also felt hopeful.“This will be a great opportunity，” I thought.“And what is there to lose？” Looking down at my watch, I noticed that I was early.This gave me plenty of time to review my resume (简历) and further prepare myself for the interview.
The doors of the building were impressive, all steel and glass and very modern.
When I walked in，someone showed me the waiting area and offered me a cup of coffee.After a few moments, a man in a nice suit told me to join him.As we walked toward the elevator, I began to feel anxious.The palms of my hands began to sweat.It seemed like an hour had passed before I heard the “ding” of the elevator opening.
We got into the elevator，full of men and women dressed to the nines.
“It's quite a large office，” the man said to me.I chuckled nervously.I could feel myself getting warmer.I couldn't wait to hear that comforting “ding” that signaled an escape.
As the elevator climbed, I nervously checked my watch again. Just as I looked down，it happened.
注意：续写词数应为150左右。
The elevator came to a stop between floors.___________________

I thought that this must be the worst interview ever.________________________________________________________

____________________________________________________________
One possible version：
The elevator came to a stop between floors.My nervousness turned into fear at once.But I immediately realized that it was better to act than to just stand.First, I pressed the emergency button.Then I asked people to lean their backs against the wall of the elevator and adjust their breathing.But suddenly, a man jumped up and down angrily.“What a terrible elevator！” he said angrily.I rushed to stop him.“Please stop! It could be very dangerous.We should calm down and wait for help！” Fortunately, everyone calmed down then.We just waited and waited.I felt anxious and checked my watch.
I thought that this must be the worst interview ever.Obviously, I would be late, and I thought that the interviewers couldn't be in a good mood.Finally, the rescuers arrived, and as soon as the door opened, I prepared to run to the office.But all of a sudden, a hand rested on my shoulder.I turned around and saw the man smiling at me.“Don't worry, young man.You've done a good job.Congratulations on passing the interview.” I was in big surprise.

Just as the shiny brochure promised, from the moment I set foot on the Harvard campus last fall, I was exposed to an exciting and enlightening new world.
I was born and raised 1，500 miles away, in a small apartment in Jackson, Mississippi.I am the only child, so my mother overpowered me with her love.For someone who sees so much beauty in the world, she worked awfully hard to protect me from it.Television, rap music, and even basketball with the kids on the block were beyond consideration.It left me a bit bitter as a teenager, but I grew to appreciate her enormous sacrifices (牺牲)—walking me to the library every afternoon, laboring at multiple jobs to keep food on the table, and telling me stories late into the night.
When I announced the summer before my senior year of high school that I had decided to apply to Harvard, I noticed her hesitant look before a warm smile enveloped her face.I pretended not to see, but I was never able to forget it.I tried to explain my reasons for wanting to leave—to prove I was smart enough, fear of taking the path of least resistance, the classic teenage feeling of being trapped—but the words just made me sound shallow and ungrateful.
Nevertheless, I began to work on the college applications—an early one for Harvard and roughly a dozen others standing by.I knew the chance of getting into Harvard was not in my favor.To my joy, I was informed of my acceptance into Harvard three days before my birthday.That night, after all of the celebratory texts and hugs, I sat in my room and began to cry uncontrollably.
Over the course of this year, I have changed in ways I never anticipated.I think I know now why my mother let me go.Harvard has forced me to grow and take a fair look at the world, and at myself.Needless to say, I would not trade the experience for anything.

Facing the growing digital economy and new vacancies incubated in the sector such as deliverymen and livestreamers, young people, especially those born after 2000，are expressing stronger willingness for flexible work relations with companies, and also wish to become “digital workers” with flexible work locations and schedules.
A report from Peking University's National School of Development said that nearly 66 percent of surveyed employees born after 2000 prefer to work from home.The number is higher than surveyed people born after 1970, with about 54.4 percent of them preferring the new way.
“The Internet can do anything for me.I check emails from my clients and submit my proposals, and then we discuss plans via teleconference.I love working from home actually，” said Mi Lu, a 28-year-old new media operator in Beijing.“It's a much cooler and more convenient thing.We work everywhere, perhaps in a café， or on a bullet train or even on the table of a restaurant.”
Hu Jiayin, an associate professor in Peking University's National School of Development, concluded that their survey shows that young people not only desire freedom in their jobs, but they also wish for stability in their careers because of uncertainties brought by the fast-changing digital economy.
“But the development of the digital economy also brings great uncertainties and a sense of insecurity to the working population, so we've found some interesting things during our surveys that over 30 percent of job seekers we've surveyed wish to have a stable job at state-owned companies，” she added.
Li Qiang, vice-president of a recruitment company, said that the greatest risk to those seeking flexible work is whether the company pays the salary fully and on time.“It's necessary for job seekers to set up a long-term development plan, rather than be shortsighted.” He added that companies may bear risks that flexible employees can't deliver high-quality work in a limited time period, which requires the companies to establish a sound work delivery standard to help evaluate employee performance.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了年轻人，尤其是00后，喜欢弹性工作制，但弹性工作制也有需要改进的地方。
√
28．What attracts young people to become “digital workers”？

D．The increasing network security.

A．The digital economy is interesting and promising.
B．Young people pay little attention to instability in work.
C．30% of the surveyed job seekers desire to work in government agencies.
D．The development of the digital economy is a double-edged sword for job seekers.
解析：推理判断题。根据第四段和第五段内容可知，数字经济带给求职者自由和灵活的工作方式的同时，也带来了不确定性和不安全感，由此可推知，数字经济的发展对求职者来说是一把双刃剑。
√
30．What does Li Qiang mean in the last paragraph
A．Job seekers lack ambition.
B．Employers are shortsighted.
C．Some companies require working overtime.
D．The flexible working mode needs improving.
解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可推知，李强认为弹性工作制需要进一步完善。
√
31．What is the author's attitude to the flexible working mode
A．Favorable. B．Objective.
C．Ambiguous. D．Disapproving.
解析：观点态度题。通读全文可知，作者提到年轻人喜欢弹性工作制的原因，也提到弹性工作制的缺陷及需要改进的地方。由此可推知，作者对弹性工作制持客观态度。

In internships (实习期) and jobs that I, now a career woman, have ever had, I've watched professionals, experienced and brand-new alike, conduct interviews or present themselves in meetings, and many of them appear unprepared and lack confidence.I think they would all benefit from an acting class.
A central technique an acting class can equip you with is improvisation (即兴表演).Essentially, skills such as the improvisation principle of “Yes, and...” are beneficial for thinking on your feet. When someone suggests a new idea, you say “Yes” and run with the suggestion.A professional familiar with this technique can entertain and value the contributions of others, promoting a free -flowing exchange of ideas, which inspires a positive, creative spirit that the corporate world longs for.
Both college students and professionals might benefit from the voice and movement training.I used to be afraid of the voice and movement part of the acting class.My acting teacher would make us do push-ups and yoga.Then, we'd stand up and moan (呻吟) with varying degrees of voices.I hated this, and lots of other people did, too.But the product of this training is an individual who stands tall and speaks clearly and loudly.Plus, I still use the stretches and warm-ups in class to calm my nerves before presentations.
As an actor, you are a student of human behaviour.With that, when you receive a text, you explore your character.Even if you're playing a villain (反派角色), you have to approach your character from where it stands.Such an outlook makes for a wonderful leader, one that understands co-workers' situations and treats them with politeness and understanding.
I've borne countless “What are you going to do with a theater degree？” speeches from family and friends.But ultimately, these soft skills are incredibly valuable for young professionals. Acting training will set you apart from the pack.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇议论文。文章讨论了表演课程中的技能如即兴表演、声音和动作训练对专业人士工作能力的提升作用，推荐年轻人参加表演课。
√
32．What effect does the principle of “Yes, and...” have on professionals following it
A．It generates positive suggestions.
B．It brings about smooth interaction.
C．It offers them good entertainment value.
D．It helps them recognize their own contributions.
解析：推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Essentially，skills such as the...exchange of ideas”可推知，该原则会给专业人士带来流畅的互动。
√
33．What can we learn from the author's experience in paragraph 3
A．She is still very nervous of her acting teacher.
B．She is addicted to working on her physical fitness.
C．The training has made her braver and more patient.
D．The training has enhanced her presentation abilities.
解析：推理判断题。根据第三段中的“But the product of this training...calm my nerves before presentations.”可推知，这些训练提高了她的演讲能力。
√
34．What does the author want to say by mentioning exploring characters

阅读下面的材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I felt so nervous.It was the day of my interview.I woke up early just to make sure I would have time to get prepared.It felt like a normal Monday, but for me, this day was very important.There was a lot of pressure.
After showering, I put on the outfit I had carefully chosen and laid out the night before.I looked at my reflection in the mirror.“You can do this，” I encouraged myself.I ate breakfast and fed my cat.I made my way to the bus stop and waited patiently.Aside from the rapid tapping of my right foot, no one could tell that I was so nervous.
When I arrived at my stop, I walked to the office.The building was so tall and I felt small in its shadow.But I also felt hopeful.“This will be a great opportunity，” I thought.“And what is there to lose？” Looking down at my watch, I noticed that I was early.This gave me plenty of time to review my resume (简历) and further prepare myself for the interview.
The doors of the building were impressive, all steel and glass and very modern.
When I walked in，someone showed me the waiting area and offered me a cup of coffee.After a few moments, a man in a nice suit told me to join him.As we walked toward the elevator, I began to feel anxious.The palms of my hands began to sweat.It seemed like an hour had passed before I heard the “ding” of the elevator opening.
We got into the elevator，full of men and women dressed to the nines.
“It's quite a large office，” the man said to me.I chuckled nervously.I could feel myself getting warmer.I couldn't wait to hear that comforting “ding” that signaled an escape.
As the elevator climbed, I nervously checked my watch again. Just as I looked down，it happened.
注意：续写词数应为150左右。
The elevator came to a stop between floors.___________________

I thought that this must be the worst interview ever.________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________
One possible version：
The elevator came to a stop between floors.My nervousness turned into fear at once.But I immediately realized that it was better to act than to just stand.First, I pressed the emergency button.Then I asked people to lean their backs against the wall of the elevator and adjust their breathing.But suddenly, a man jumped up and down angrily.“What a terrible elevator！” he said angrily.I rushed to stop him.“Please stop! It could be very dangerous.We should calm down and wait for help！” Fortunately, everyone calmed down then.We just waited and waited.I felt anxious and checked my watch.
I thought that this must be the worst interview ever.Obviously, I would be late, and I thought that the interviewers couldn't be in a good mood.Finally, the rescuers arrived, and as soon as the door opened, I prepared to run to the office.But all of a sudden, a hand rested on my shoulder.I turned around and saw the man smiling at me.“Don't worry, young man.You've done a good job.Congratulations on passing the interview.” I was in big surprise.
