【大題提能】
Ⅰ.閱讀理解
A
The topic “slash youth”，referring to those refusing to be defined or bound by just one personal identity and choosing to undertake multiple careers，has fueled heated debate on social media.On Douban，a Chinese social networking platform，the topic has attracted about 11，000 posts and has been viewed over 400 million times.China’s young people are keen to share their slash youth stories online，presenting themselves as multiple and sometimes distinct identities，such as a nurse and model，a teacher and stand－up comedian，and an engineer and musician.
Xing Eryang，a 31－year－old female resident in Beijing，founded the Douban topic in 2021.While staying diligent about her daytime work，she is developing her hobbies，including stand－up comedy and vlogging，into secondary careers during her spare time.And she is amazed to find her“slash life” philosophy followed by so many of her peers.
Wei Heng，a 26－year－old woman in Guangzhou，and Tang Yuhan，a 27－year－old man in Xuancheng City，Anhui Province，are both participants in the topic，with their stories earning thousands of likes so far.The two are both musicians in their spare time，even though they are thousands of miles apart and have different jobs in media and finance.Their passion for music has grown since college and they didn’t abandon their enthusiasm，even after entering the workplace.
Others’ reaction showed the gap between the young and former generations.“My parents used to say，‘music cannot earn you money’，so the band thing was regarded as a waste of time.However，we want to pursue whatever we love and are willing to pay for it，” says Wei Heng.
“The ‘slash life’ mania(狂熱) shows that，along with China’s economic development，our society is becoming more and more diversified and inclusive，and it welcomes everyone’s self－fulfillment，” says Shi Yanrong，an associate researcher from Tianjin Academy of Social Sciences.“Young people no longer have to rely on work and money for their sense of self－worth.They tend to practice a carpe diem(活在當下) philosophy and create their own identities.”
【語篇解讀】　本文是說明文。文章主要介紹了近年來在中國的年輕人中興起的“斜杠生活”。
1.What are “slash youth” more likely to do
A.Create a topic on Douban.
B.Take diverse occupations.

√
3.What is the purpose of the last paragraph
A.To provide career guidance.
B.To analyze a cultural difference.
C.To conclude from the phenomenon.
D.To share a unique life experience.
解析　寫作意圖題。文章最后一段分析了“斜杠生活”的興起背后的經濟和社會原因，由此可推知，最后一段的目的是從現象中得出結論。
√
4.What is the main idea of the text
A.Xing Eryang founded the Douban topic“slash life”.
B.Young people prefer“slash life” to their real lives.
C.China’s economy develops fast due to “slash life”.

“When I grow up，I want to be...”
Almost all of us have thought about，or been asked to think about our future careers.Our answers may differ greatly.Even now your aspirations may have changed from when you were in primary school.
However，it seems career options aren’t only based on personal taste.In a survey carried out by teens，doctors，lawyers，and bankers were some of most popular careers that people said they hoped to follow.This is in line with a similar survey carried out in the U.K.in May 2011 by job website monster.co.uk，in which medicine was the top choice among U.K.teenagers aged between 13 and 17.
Medicine and law are two of the oldest and best known professions.Their prestige(威望) may come from the fact that doctors and lawyers are some of the most esteemed members of society，and they make good money.Joining these high－profile professions is often seen as a sign of upward social mobility.
It is equally unsurprising that banking is now one of the most common career choices.Youngsters worldwide think of banking and see the money rolling in.Wealth is increasingly becoming one of the most important indicators of a successful career.British young men list the U.K.tycoon Alan Sugar，Microsoft founder Bill Gates and Facebook chief Mark Zuckerberg as their top role models “for their wealth”.Just as Chinese teenagers see being a banker as a good and fun pathway to “wealth”.
However，not every child has the makings of doctor，lawyer，or banker.They are those who see fulfillment and happiness in other areas，and many teenagers dare to ink more individuality into their career options.As the Teens’ survey discovered，a variety of unconventional jobs—coffee shop owner，gourmet(美食家)，waiter at a fast food restaurant—are among teenagers’ career choices.They can be equally interesting and rewarding jobs.
With every choice comes responsibility and challenge，and all career paths require specific education and training，so you have to learn to balance optimism and confidence with being realistic about your particular talents and skills.
【語篇解讀】　本文是議論文。文章通過對青少年調查發現他們最喜歡的職業是醫生，律師和銀行家，但也有少數人愿意踏上更多彩的道路。
5.What is the passage mainly about
A.Choosing a good job is very important.
B.Careers in teenagers’ mind.
C.Teenagers in the UK like doctors.
D.The choice of career needs challenge.
解析　文章大意題。根據第一、二段中的“When I grow up，I want to be...”和“Almost all of us have thought about，or been asked to think about our future careers.”可知，文章主要講的是青少年心中的職業。
√
6.According to the passage，all of the following are the benefits of being a doctor EXCEPT ________.
A.respect from others
B.upward social mobility
C.high pay
D.the oldest profession
解析　細節理解題。根據第四段內容可知A項“respect from others”、B項“upward social mobility”、C項“high pay”均符合當醫生的好處。而D項“the oldest profession”最古老的職業文中未提及。
√
7.What do youngsters think is increasingly becoming one of the most important indicators of a successful career
A.Prestige. B.Fulfillment.
C.Happiness. D.Wealth.
解析　細節理解題。根據第五段中的“Wealth is increasingly becoming one of the most important indicators of a successful career.”可知，青少年越來越認為成功職業最重要的指標之一是財富。
√
8.What can we learn from the last paragraph
A.According to your particular talents and skills，you can choose your favorite career.
B.Specific education and training can help get a good job.
C.Whatever career you choose，you should balance optimism and confidence with being realistic about your particular talents and skills.
D.Responsibility is the most important when you choose a good job.
解析　推理判斷題。根據最后一段的內容可知，無論選擇哪種職業，都應在樂觀和自信與實事求是地看待自己的才能和技能之間取得平衡。
√
Ⅱ.七選五
Some people believe that a career change at 50 is impossible because no one wants to invest in someone so old.__1__ The key is that you should try your best to grasp the opportunity.
What is the secret？__2__ For 15 years，I had the same job.I enjoyed the work itself，but grew tired of management of the company.The inflexibility of the work affected my work－life balance.With my 52nd birthday approaching，I realized I would have to make a career change.
Two months later，my wife spotted an occupation online.So，I applied.__3__ However，I was surprised to get an online interview.The interview went well，and they told me I’d hear from them the next week if I passed it.So when three weeks passed with no word，you can imagine how frustrated I felt.I carried on looking for other chances，but one afternoon the company’s HR phoned me for a second interview! __4__ Then my wife suggested that I show my true self in the interview.I got her point.I answered their questions as best as I could，and eventually I got the job!
It’s proved that companies do invest in people over 50.I’ve realized career changes are more common than I first thought.__5__ With the right attitude，you can achieve almost anything and get what you want if you have a try.
A.It is the right attitude that works.
B.I was happy，and I got well prepared.
C.However，I’ve got a career change easily.
D.I was shocked，and I began to feel anxious.
E.However，I’ve achieved a career change unexpectedly.
F.Lacking experience in that particular role，I was pessimistic.
G.I hope that anyone attempting a career change can try something bravely!
【語篇解讀】　本文是記敘文。文章主要講述了作者在50歲成功轉行的個人經歷。
1.E　[根據本空上一句和下一句可知，本句與上文構成轉折，指出作者自己實現了職業轉變，后文提到了轉變的關鍵。故E項“然而，我出乎意料地實現了職業轉變”符合語境。]
2.A　[根據本段可知，本句應回答上文提到的秘訣是什么的問題，故A項“正確的態度才會起作用”符合語境。全文最后一句直接提示了答案。]
3.F　[根據下文中的“However”可知，上下文之間有轉折關系，F項“由于缺乏擔任這一角色的經驗，我很悲觀”表達了自己的悲觀，與下文的成功得到面試機會構成轉折關系，符合上下文，語意連貫。]
4.D　[根據上兩句和后兩句可知，本句應承接上文說明作者接到電話通知二輪面試后的內心活動，故D項“我很震驚，我開始感到焦慮”符合語境。]
5.G　[根據前兩句和后一句可知，作者在50歲時實現了轉行，所以建議其他人也進行嘗試，G項中的“try”對應后文中的“have a try”。故G項“我希望任何想轉行的人都能勇敢地嘗試一下！”符合語境。]

UNIT 5　LAUNCHING YOUR CAREER
Ⅰ.閱讀理解
A
For some，working from home is a gift—a wonderful opportunity to focus and be productive，all the while finding time to walk the dog and even exercise in pyjamas(睡衣).For others，well，the change isn’t quite as seamless.Some find all they’ve done with their eight hours is answer two emails，dream about a massage or discover their “cheese hour”.
It’s true：some people can simply better adjust to the new world of remote work than others.However，it’s not so black and white.You’re not necessarily born to be good or bad at working remotely—some may just have to put in more effort than others.
If it feels easier to procrastinate(拖延) at home than in the office，it is for most：telework is a “weak situation” with lower expectations about behaviour，says Timothy Pychyl，associate psychology professor at Carleton University.On the contrary，he points to a common situation：“In an elevator，we all typically ‘act elevator’，for example，avoiding eye contact with others，and keeping our distance as much as possible.The office is more of a strong situation with expectations for many things such as dress codes，arrival and departure times and time spent on or off task.”
And without the strong situation of an office，it’s quite a bit easier to refuse unpleasant tasks.When there’s a task on your plate you don’t want to dive into，or you’re banging your head against a wall with a tech problem，you’re testing your “frustration tolerance(挫折耐受力)”，says Pychyl.Those who have a lower frustration tolerance are much more likely to procrastinate—they’re the people who get up from their desk and find a distraction(使人分心的事).
One problem that people working from home are experiencing at the moment—both skilled remote workers and those new to telework—is a lack of boundaries(界限).You’ll be surrounded by endless chores.Your kitchen table might be both your desk and where you prepare dinner.
【語篇解讀】　本文是說明文。本文講述很多人在家工作，但是在家工作意味著面臨很多的挑戰。
1.What does the underlined word “seamless” in the first paragraph mean
A.Smooth. B.Difficult.
C.Necessary. D.Flexible.
解析　詞義猜測題。上文說明有些人可以很輕松地適應在家工作的轉變，由“For others”可知，下文與上文是相對的，因此推斷畫線詞所在句句意：而對另外一些人而言，這一轉變卻沒有那么順利。畫線詞與A項“順利的”意思相近。
√
2.What does the author want to show by mentioning an elevator
A.We can influence the surroundings.
B.We are surrounded by expectations.
C.People behave well in strong situations.
D.People procrastinate in weak situations.
解析　寫作意圖題。根據第三段可知，作者認為電梯里是一種“強環境”，在這種情況下，我們會因為受到周圍環境的制約而遵守各種規則，表現良好，辦公場所也是如此。因此推斷，通過提到電梯作者想要表達人們在強環境下舉止良好。
√
3.What do we learn about people with a low frustration tolerance
A.They avoid tech problems.
B.They like challenging tasks.
C.They get jobs done quickly.
D.They tend to put off things.
解析　細節理解題。根據倒數第二段最后一句可知，低挫折耐受力的人常常會拖延。
√
4.What does working from home mean according to the last paragraph
A.Better conditions. B.More distractions.
C.Lighter workload. D.Higher productivity.
解析　推理判斷題。根據最后一段可知，在家工作意味著工作與家庭生活之間界限的喪失，你的餐桌可能既是你的辦公桌，也是你準備晚餐的地方。這自然也意味著更多的讓人分心的事。
√
B
From the age of five，Alison Mbekeani，now in Durham University for her PhD，dreamed of becoming a scientist.But becoming a mother to two children put a brake on her career.She does not expect to return to the lab until her children are 16.Dr.Mbekeani is not alone.One survey in 2019 found that child－care responsibilities led 29% of mothers with a child under 14 to reduce their working hours，compared with just 5% of fathers.
In an ideal world，the government would not have to worry about any of this.Based on their preferences，parents would make a judgment over whether to outsource(外包) child－care or keep it in－house.The question for policymakers is whether parental behavior reflects actual preferences or it is driven by constraints(限制).
Constraints are an issue.Three in five nonworking mothers say that they would prefer to work，given the right child－care.Families had to fork out an average of ￡260 a week in 2021 for 50 hours of nursery care for a child under two.A tenth of households with a child under five report difficulty meeting such costs.As well as price，availability is a problem.Just 68% of local authorities in England report having enough child－care provision(供應) to serve parents who work full time.
Besides child－care，the benefits that could flow from evening out the gender(性別) imbalance in child－care could also be pretty large.One recent study estimated the gains from shuffling men and women according to ability，pulling productive women into work and kicking unproductive men out.Astonishingly，it was calculated that Britain’s average output per worker could be as much as 30% higher.
Cheaper child－care and gender－balanced responsibility in it are ways out to help mums into work，but policies would need to be designed to target really constrained parents.However，experts also add that giving children the best start in life means shorter，structured days full of interaction.
【語篇解讀】　本文是說明文。文章分析了媽媽們回歸職場困難的原因，說明了如何幫助照顧孩子的媽媽們回歸職場。
5.Why is the story of Alison mentioned
A.To confirm an idea.
B.To develop the plot.
C.To draw a conclusion.
D.To introduce the topic.
解析　寫作意圖題。根據第一段的“Dr Mbekeani is not alone.”并結合下文內容可知，第一段通過Alison的故事，引出本文話題：如何照顧孩子以幫助媽媽重回職場。
√
6.What is the government’s key focus about child－care problem
A.The influence of parents’ final decision.
B.The difference of children’s preference.
C.The balance of responsibility to do housework.
D.The consistency of parental behavior and actual liking.
解析　細節理解題。根據第二段末句可知，政府需要關注的是父母的養育行為是否真正反映了他們真實的偏好。
√
7.What does the underlined word “shuffling” mean in paragraph 4
A.Observing. B.Describing.
C.Rearranging. D.Protecting.
解析　詞義猜測題。根據畫線詞后的“pulling productive women into work and kicking unproductive men out”可知，“將有效率的女性納入職場，并將沒有效率的男性開除”是對畫線詞的解釋，故可推知畫線詞表示“重新安排”。
√
8.Which is a suggested solution to helping mums into work
A.Reducing child－care fees.
B.Strengthening children’s responsibility.
C.Shortening children’s structured days.
D.Offering the best life start to children.
解析　細節理解題。根據最后一段首句可知，幫助媽媽們進入職場的建議解決方案之一是降低育兒費用。

Ⅰ.閱讀理解
In the digital age，opportunities are arising for everyone.However，only those putting plans into action can stay ahead.Alexandr Wang is one such example.
Los Alamos National Laboratory was where Alexandr spent his childhood. Both his parents were physicists there.Alexandr，from a young age，had a sharp mind.As a kid，he was regarded as a math wizard(奇才) and competed in national math and computer competitions.Finishing high school，Alexandr entered MIT where machine learning and AI amazed him.He saw the potential(潛力) of AI，and was excited about how it could change the world.But it wasn’t making a real impact.His ambition to set up an enterprise committed to that was seeded then.
At 17，he got the role of tech lead at Quora and dropped out of MIT.“I told my parents it was just going to be a thing I did for the summer.Obviously，it wasn’t，” Alexandr said.Surely，his parents were disappointed.They all knew he made that change filled with unexpected risks.But Alexandr said，“If you aren’t willing to take a risk now，then when？” Alexandr met Lucy Guo at Quora，with whom Alexandr founded Scale AI，which turned out to be a considerable success.
In fact，at that time，there were various opportunities in the tech world.It was hard to decide which road they should go down.Then he and his team decided to take a different approach—instead of following diverse paths，they agreed to focus on one.They went with“imagery，computer vision and other kinds of sensor data”.And that is what made the company’s profits rise quickly.Scale AI has a net worth of about $7.3 billion at present，with Alexandr being the world’s youngest self－made billionaire.
When asked lessons he’d like to share with founders，Alexandr stated there are a number of things.“The top one is always doing things that go with your values and how you want to build a company at the beginning.When you talk to investors(投資者) they’ll contribute advice that may go against your goal.Figure out your focus and what gets you started.”

B.Challenges of Alexandr’s career.
C.Alexandr’s great achievements.
D.The process of founding Scale AI.

3.What did Alexandr advise founders to do
A.Stick to one particular direction.
B.Keep an open mind on suggestions.
C.Remain true to the original aim.
D.Find a friend to start a company.

Ⅱ.七選五
If you’re currently studying in senior high school，chances are that you’ve started thinking about what your career options might be for the future.__1__
If you use a step－by－step plan，you can avoid choosing a college major that turns out to be nothing like you expected and head on a career path with more confidence and eventual success.
Start with an Aptitude (能力) Test
__2__ Other people find reading，writing and learning languages easy.Taking an aptitude test，also known as a career test or career quiz，will help you determine where your study skills will help you best.
You shouldn’t categorize yourself into a profession just because a career test says it’s right for you.__3__ However，aptitude tests often help you identify professions you might not have considered.
Take a Personality Test
Personality tests can help you figure out if you’re a natural leader or more of a follower.__4__ How do you handle conflict？What about dealing with bullies or gossips？A personality test will help you decide if you might be comfortable working for a large corporation in a team environment，or as an entrepreneur(創業者) launching your own business.
List Jobs That Interest You
Write a list of jobs that interest you.__5__ Be realistic，based on where you live and what your finances are.For example，if you want to start a restaurant，you’ll need hundreds of thousands of dollars.Working in a restaurant as a prep cook or taking cooking classes will help you see what the restaurant business is like and whether or not it might be right for you.
A.It’s never too early for you to do so.
B.Are you good at singing or drawing
C.Many people end up doing what they don’t like.
D.For some people，subjects like math and science come easily.
E.Do you like to work in groups，or are you better on your own
F.You shouldn’t avoid a career because a test says it’s not a good fit.
G.They can be jobs you know nothing about but are fun or challenging.
