　　Unit 14　Careers

　　Ⅰ.阅读理解

　　A

　　Many people find it difficult to do any activity for pure pleasure.I'm here to tell you about one of my favorite pleasures.It doesn't cost a thing and takes very little time.Best of all，you can do it for pure enjoyment.It's walking.

　　There's something about walking that's different from jogging.When I'm jogging，I'm constantly challenging myself to go farther or faster，sweat more，and breathe harder.But when I'm walking，I'm taking time to go outside and put one foot in front of the other while I look around，breathe，and feel the sun and the wind.When I walk，I'm submerging(浸没) myself in life.

　　On walks，I make friends with myself.That little voice in my head asks，“How are you going to finish three major projects this week？” I answer，“Now，calm down.This is your time.No deadlines，no projects，no have­to­dos.”

　　Walks alone and walks with companions each have their own pleasures.On walks with companions，acquaintances become friends and friendships deepen.There are always memories and thoughts to share on walks.

　　I also enjoy walking anywhere with my children，who constantly open my eyes to new discoveries－rolling down a hill，or finding a strange rock.Walking expands their minds and teaches them about nature.

　　Years ago，when I read “Pride and Prejudice”，I noticed Elizabeth Bennet walked three miles to visit her sister.Then I learned that the Romantic poets－William Wordsworth，John Keats，and Percy Bysshe Shelley－frequently walked for hours for creative inspiration.I might not have been able to write like these poets but I could take walks as they did，I thought.Then I became interested in the activity.

　　Because I walk so often，I now have a list of my favorite walking spots.One of my favorite spots is a park near my house.The park lets me experience the cycle of the seasons at my convenience.

　　Where else can you appreciate the beauty in the world except on a walk? Why not take a walk and do it for pleasure?

　　B

　　A new generation addiction is quickly spreading all over

　　the world.Weboholism，a twentieth century disease，affects people from different ages.They surf the Net，use e­mails and speak in chat rooms.They spend many hours on the computer，and it becomes a compulsive habit.They cannot stop，and it affects their lives.

　　Ten years ago，no one thought that using computers could become compulsive behavior that could affect the social and physical life of computer users.This obsessional behavior has affected teenagers and college students.They are likely to log on computers and spend long hours at different websites.

　　They become hooked on computers and gradually their social and school life is affected by this situation.They spend

　　all free time surfing and don’t concentrate on homework，so this

　　addiction influences

　　their grades

　　and

　　success

　　at

　　school.Because they can find everything on the websites，they hang

　　out there.Moreover，this addiction to websites influences their social life.

　　They spend more time in front of computers than with their friends.The relation with their friends changes.The virtual life becomes more important than their real life.They have a new language that they speak in the chat rooms and it causes cultural changes in society.

　　Because of the change in their behavior，they begin to keep themselves apart from society and live with their virtual friends.They share their emotions and feelings with friends who they have never met in their life.Although they feel confident on the computer，they are not confident with real live friends they have known all their life.It is a problem for the future.This addictive behavior is beginning to affect all the world.

　　【语篇解读】　网瘾在全球迅速蔓延，成为世纪通病，影响着不同年龄的人群。

　　5．The author’s attitude towards weboholism is that of being________.

　　A．optimisticB．disapproving

　　C．positive

　　D．acceptable

　　答案　B　[者态度题。结合第一段后半部分提到的网瘾的不良影响可知，作者对网瘾持不赞成的态度。另外，第三、四、五段的内容都是线索提示。

　　6．What is the main idea of the passage?

　　A．The influence of weboholism.

　　B．The advantage of weboholism.

　　C．The popularity of weboholism.

　　D．The cause of weboholism.

　　答案　A　旨大意题。文章第一段开门见山地阐述了网瘾的危害，然后从不同方面详细阐述了它造成的不良影响，所以A项最能概括文章大义。

　　7．What does the underlined word “obsessional” in the second

　　paragraph most probably mean?

　　A．Attractive.

　　B．Professional.

　　C．Addictive.

　　D．Potential.

　　答案　C　义猜测题。第二段最后一句提到青少年和大学生可能会登录电脑，在不同的网站上花费很长的时间，由此可推知“obsessional”的意思是“痴迷的，上瘾的”，与“addictive”同义。

　　8．We can infer from the passage that________.

　　A．weboholism has the greatest effect on teenagers

　　B．students can hardly balance real and virtual life

　　C．people are addicted to games on the Internet

　　D．virtual life is more vivid and attractive anyway

　　答案　B　理判断题。根据倒数第二段第三句“The virtual life becomes more important than their real life.”以及最后一段第一句中的“they begin to keep themselves apart from society and live with their virtual friends”可推知，学生们几乎不能平衡真实生活和虚拟生活。

　　Ⅱ.根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳的选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

　　Question：I have recently got a job in sales in a super shopping mall.One of my major tasks is to sell cosmetics to female consumers.However，the mall asked for every staff to wear make­up.Actually，I have no idea about how to wear make­up.I think I need a beauty makeover1.

　　Answer：Congratulations on your new job！I think you can manage it well.__9__A beauty makeover is a way to transform a woman's appearance.It consists of taking a woman from her current makeup look to a new one.A successful makeover will make a woman look beautiful and younger，with a fresher look.

　　__10__

　　Having a flawless skin tone is the key to great make­up.Before applying foundation2，do a quick“cheek test”．Rather than testing a shade of make­up on your hand or arms－hand skin is generally darker than your face－do a test on your cheek and jaw line.This will give you a true reading.__11__

　　Blushing

　　Use professional brushes to apply blusher3，not the mini one that may come with a blush product.It's good to note that wherever you place your brush first will get the most make­up，so don't start in the front.__12__Blush both cheeks using this method.Then apply a very light dusting of blusher all over the face.

　　Eyes

　　There are many ways to apply eye make­up.You may need to practise to find the right look for you.__13__Apply black eyeliner4to the top of the eye only.Apply two or three coats of mascara5.
