Ⅱ.融合教材·主题探究
【改编自人教选必四U5】
As an adult, one of the first questions you are asked when meeting someone new is, “What do you do？” This is because your career is a very important part of who you are. The career you have defines your life, and so taking time to think about it is an essential exercise for young people.
The best time to start thinking about possible careers is while you are still at school, before you make any choices about your further education. This, however, is not always easy. Some people know what they want to do from a young age, but many others just have a few ideas bouncing around in their heads.
One of the most effective ways to get some insight on a possible career path is to complete a “career aptitude test”. The results of the test will tell you about your strengths and interests, and some tests also suggest careers that you may be suited to. Having this information will provide you with a better chance of finding a job you like. There are many free tests online, so give one a try. Getting a head start in considering your future career may help you for the rest of your life. You don't want to look back in years to come and say，“I wish I had thought more about what I really wanted to do.”
There are many different kinds of career aptitude tests. Some ask questions about your personal interests and attitudes. Others focus more on asking you to rate different kinds of work scenarios, like working as a librarian or a lawyer. Of course, while completing these sorts of tests, it is very important to be honest—and don't worry—there are no right or wrong answers.
√
1. What does the underlined word “insight” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A．Confusion.
B．Understanding.
C．Hesitation.
D．Disagreement.
√
2．What can the results of career aptitude tests tell you
A．Only your personal interests.
B．Only your attitudes.
C．Your strengths and interests.
D．Your strengths and weaknesses.
√
3．What can we infer from the passage
A．Thinking about future careers early can be beneficial.
B．Career aptitude tests always suggest the right career.
C．Everyone knows what career they want from a young age.
D．Being honest when taking career aptitude tests is unnecessary.
√
4．What is the main idea of the passage
A．Different types of career aptitude tests.
B．The importance of career aptitude tests for adults.
C．How to choose a career after graduating from school.

(2024·重庆八中阶段练习)I major in Mechanical Engineering and Political Science.When someone hears what I study, I'm usually meant with two reactions.The first is a small smile with the word “overachiever” on the tip of their tongue.The second is a look of confusion, followed by an exaggerated (夸张的) “Why？” The short answer: I want to be a problem solver, and engineering teaches me how to become that type of person.In addition, I also want to be able to look at the bigger picture.
[过能力 综合提升]
It's the beginning of a new year, and numerous first-years have plans for double or triple majors.However, as most of us quickly realize after that first fall semester, college is a lot! We are unavoidably forced to make up our minds—do we keep trying to make our double or triple majors work or do we completely switch gears The thing I wished someone told me on day one is that if you're passionate about something, it's not going to feel like work.Political Science can be challenging, but to me, it's fun to read the Constitution (宪法) and see the impact each word has on our interpretation.
This may sound hard to accept, but if you are double or triple majoring because you think you're in a race with your peers, you're only running yourself into the ground.Don't double or triple major if you are doing it for a mark on your resume (简历) ultimately, because then your life will be a living hell for the next four years.What is going to make you impressive is the passion that you have—whether it is in your study, your career, or something else your study and career will enable you to do.
Always think about your “why” when it comes to the schedule double or triple majors entail, because at the end of the day, it's going to be you doing the homework—so try to enjoy what you're doing along the ride for what it's worth.

From self-driving cars to care bots for elderly people，the rapid development in technology has long represented a possible threat to many jobs normally performed by people.But experts now believe that almost 50 percent of occupations (职业) existing today will be completely unnecessary in the future as artificial intelligence(AI) continues to change businesses.
“The next fifteen years will see a change in how we work, and a change will necessarily take place in how we plan and think about workplaces，” said Peter Andrew，director of Workplace Strategy for CBRE Asia Pacific.A growing number of jobs in the future will require creative intelligence, social skills and the ability to use artificial intelligence.
The report is based on interviews with 200 experts，business leaders and young people from Asia Pacific，Europe and North America.It shows that in the US technology already destroys more jobs than it creates.But the report states，“Losing occupations does not necessarily mean losing jobs—just changing what people do.”Growth in new jobs could occur as much，according to the research.“The growth of companies that have the speed and technological knowledge will directly challenge big companies，” it states.
A report by Pew Research Center found 52 percent of experts in artificial intelligence and robotics were optimistic about the future and believed there would still be enough jobs in the next few years.“The optimists pictured a future in which robots do not take the place of more jobs than they create，” according to Aaron Smith, the report's co-author.
“Technology will continue to affect jobs，but more jobs seem likely to be created.Although there have always been people out of work, when we reach a few billion people there will be billions of jobs.There is no shortage of things that need to be done and that will not change，” human-computer interaction researcher Jonathan Grudin told researchers.
