第二部分: 閱讀理解(第一節20小題, 第二節5小題; 每小題2分, 滿分50分)
第一節: 閱讀下列材料, 從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中, 選出最佳選項。
(A)
“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(志向)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 the most popular careers that people said they hoped to follow. This is in line with a similar survey carried out in the UK in May 2011 by job website monster. co. uk, in which medicine was the top choice among UK teenagers aged between 13 and 17.
Medicine and law are two of the oldest and best known professions. Their prestige(聲望)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(引人注目的)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 UK business tycoon(大亨)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 a doctor, a lawyer or a banker. There are those who see fulfillment(成就感)and happiness in other areas, and many teenagers dare to ink more individuality into their career options. As the Teens’s urvey discovered, a variety of unconventional(非傳統的)jobs—coffee shop owners, gourmets(美食家), waiters at a fast food restaurant—are among teenagers’career choices. They can be equally interesting and rewarding jobs.
As every choice comes responsibility and challenge, and all career paths require specific education and training, you have to learn to balance optimism and confidence with being realistic about your particular talents and skills.
41. What is the top career choice among UK teenagers aged between 13 and 17 according to the article?
A. Law. B. Medicine. C. Bank. D. Education.
42. According to the article, all of the following are the benefits of being a doctor EXCEPT .
A. the oldest profession B. respect from others
C. high pay
D. upward social mobility
43. 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.
44. 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, confidence and being realistic according to your particular talents and skills.
D. Responsibility is the most important when you choose a good job.
45. What’s the passage mainly about?
A. Careers in teenagers’ mind.
B. Choose a good job is very important.
C. Teenagers in the UK like doctors.
D. The choice of career needs challenge.

(2024·杭州模擬)
Below is a page adapted from The Study Skills Handbook.
The starting place for most research is the library. Join your school library as soon as possible and make the most of it.
Library services
Find out about the range of services available. Typically, there will be:
◇academic journals
◇specialist collections
◇photocopiers
◇laminators
◇binding facilities
◇computers
◇CDs, DVDs, films, tapes, slides, and video resources
◇silent areas and study rooms
◇specialist resources for students with disabilities
◇facilities for making audiovisual aids for your presentations
◇support on how to use library facilities.
Finding books in the library
◇Fiction is arranged in alphabetical order(a—z)by author’s surnames.
◇Reference books are arranged by subject. Each subject is given a number, which is shown on the spine of the book.
◇All the books on a given subject are grouped together on the shelves.
◇You can find a book’s reference number by looking it up in the library catalogue(目錄).
◇Most catalogues are now electronic. For more about electronic searches, see pages 148-152.
It helps to find books if you already know:
◇the author’s surname and initials
◇the title of the book.
Journals or periodicals
Journals or periodicals usually contain the latest research for your subject, as well as book reviews. Most journal articles have a short “abstract” at the beginning which tells you what the articles are about. Browsing through the abstracts and reviews helps to keep you up to date with the subject. You will be expected to refer to articles in most assignments.
Journals are published at regular intervals during the year. They are collected into numbered volumes, usually one for each year. To find a journal article you need to know:
◇the title of the journal, the year it was published and its volume number
◇the name and initials of the article’s author
◇the title of the article.
Indexes(索引)and abstracts
Indexes and abstracts are separate publications which give brief details of journal articles, including who wrote what and where to find it. Sometimes reading abstracts will be enough for your assignment; at other times you will need to read the original articles, too.
In the indexes, you can search by subject heading and by keywords for all the articles on a given subject. They are updated regularly and are well worth using.
Electronic information
An increasing amount of information is being published electronically. This includes anything from mail-order catalogues to academic journals. A lot of electronic information is located at publicly available sites on the World Wide Web(www), which is accessed via the Internet. Your school may have its own intranet, with websites used only within the institution—you may be asked to write your own “page” on it.
To locate information on the Internet, you type in the address at which it is stored. This will consist of short abbreviations. Spaces, dots, dashes, oblique strokes and letters must be typed in very precisely. This, for example, is the address of the website of Friends of the Earth: http: //www. foe. co. uk.
