18．The other day in school we were discussing jobs．Our teacher，Mrs．Bolt，said that vocations were very important and that it was never too early to think about your life's work．Most of the children really weren't too sure about what they wanted to be．But I knew exactly what I wanted to be，and when Mrs．Bolt asked me，I replied"A truck driver．"
"A truck driver，"repeated Mrs．Bolt．"Why do you want to be a truck driver，Kenneth？"
"Because truck drivers are always on the move．They don't have to sit at desks all day．They're out on the road and they see a lot of the country．The pay is good，too．And you never have any homework．"
The class laughed．
"Well，Kenneth，"answered Mrs．Bolt．"You certainly sound enthusiastic．I guessed that you don't like sitting at a desk or doing homework．Is that correct，Kenneth？"
"Yes，I guess so，"I said．
"Well，since you are so interested in becoming a truck driver，I think you should investigate the field a little further．I want you to go to the library and take out a book on truck driving．And I want you to write a book report on it and hand it at the end of the month．"
"That's the last time I'll ever tell anybody my secret ambition!"

2．It happened to me recently．I was telling someone how much I had enjoyed reading Barack Obama's Dreams From My Father and how it had changed my views of our President．A friend I was talking to agreed with me that it was，in his words，"a brilliantly（精彩地）written book"．However，he then went on to talk about Mr Obama in a way which suggested he had no idea of his background at all．I sensed that I was talking to a book liar．
And it seems that my friend is not the only one．Approximately two thirds of people have lied about reading a book which they haven't．In the World Book Day's"Report on Guilty Secrets"，Dreams From My Father is at number 9．The report lists ten books，and various authors，which people have lied about reading，and as I'm not one to lie too often （I'd hate to be caught out），I'll admit here and now that I haven't read the entire top ten．But I am pleased to say that，unlike 42percent of people，I have read the book at number one，George Orwell's 1984．I think it's really brilliant．
The World Book Day report also has some other interesting information in it．It says that many people lie about having read Jane Austen，Charles Dickens，Fyodor Dostoevsky （I haven't read him，but haven't lied about it either ） and Herman Melville．
Asked why they lied，the most common reason was to"impress"someone they were speaking to．This could be tricky if the conversation became more in depth!
But when asked which authors they actually enjoy，people named J．K．Rowling，John Grisham，Sophie Kinsella （ah，the big sellers，in other words）．Fortytwo percent of people asked admitted they turned to the back of the book to read the end before finishing the story （I'll come clean：I do this and am astonished that 58percent said they had never done so）．
44．How did the author find his friend a book liar？D
A．By judging his manner of speaking．
B．By looking into his background．
C．By mentioning a famous name．
D．By discussing the book itself．
45．Which of the following is a"guilty secret"according to the World Book Day report？B
A．Charles Dickens is very low on the topten list．
B.42% of people pretended to have read 1984．
C．The author admitted having read 9books．
D．Dreams From My Father is hardly read．
46．By lying about reading，a person hopes toB．
A．control the conversation
B．appear knowledgeable
C．learn about the book
D．make more friends
47．What is the author's attitude to 58% of readers？C
A．Favorable．
B．Uncaring．
C．Doubtful．
D．Friendly．

12．You probably know who Marie Curie was，but you may not have heard of Rachel Carson．Of the outstanding ladies listed below，who do you think was the most important woman of the past 100years？
Jane Addams（1860-1935）
Anyone who has ever been helped by a social worker has Jane Addams to thank．Addams helped the poor and worked for peace．She encouraged a sense of community（社区）by creating shelters and promoting education and services for people in need．In 1931，Addams became the first American woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize．
Rachel Carson（1907-1964）
If it weren't for Rachel Carson，the environmental movement might not exist today．Her popular 1962book Silent Spring raised awareness of the dangers of pollution and the harmful effects of chemicals on humans and on the world's lakes and oceans．
Sandra Day O'Connor（1930-present）
When Sandra Day O'Connor finished third in her class at Stanford Law School，in 1952，she could not find work at a law firm because she was a woman．She became an Arizona state senator（参议员） and，in 1981，the first woman to join the U．S．Supreme Court．O'Connor gave the deciding vote in many important cases during her 24years on the top court．

Rosa Parks（1913-2005）
On December 1，1955，in Montgomery，Alabama，Rasa Parks would not give up her seat on a bus to a passenger．Her simple act landed Parks in prison．But it also set off the Montgomery bus boycott．It lasted for more than a year，and kicked off the civil-rights movement．"The only tired I was，was tired of giving in，"said Parks．

19．"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，抱负）may have changed from when you were in primary school．
However，it seems that career choices 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 similar to a survey carried out in the UK in May 2016by job website-Co．uk，in which medicine was the top choice among UK teenagers aged between 13and 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 muchrespected members of society，and they make good money．What's more，these professions are often seen as a sign of upward social class．
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（标志） of a successful career．
However，not every child has the makings of doctor，lawyer，or banker．They are those who see achievement and happiness in other areas．As the Teens'survey discovered，a variety of unconventional（非传统的） jobs-coffee shop owner，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，you have to learn to balance optimism（乐观主义）and confidence with being realistic about your particular talents and skills．
32．What is the passage mainly about？A
A．Careers in teenagers'mind．
B．Choosing a good job is very important．
C．Teenagers in the UK like doctors．
D．The choice of career needs challenge．
33．What is the top career choice among UK teenagers aged between 13and 17according to the article？A
A．Medicine．
B．Law．
C．Bank．
D．Education．
34．All of the following are the benefits of being a doctor or a lawyer exceptB．
