House Sitting

In many countries of the world people do what is called house sitting. It means that if owners of the house are going away, they want someone to come into their home and look after the house and maybe pets while they are away.

In Australia, many people travel. After people retire, they might buy a van and travel all over the country. 【1】

So if someone wants to travel or go away for some reason, they might want someone in their home to care for it and keep the gardens tidy. House sitters might have to care for pets. Also, quite a few people have swimming pools in their back yard and they need cleaning. 【2】 I feel it is a great way of seeing the country, because you go and stay in a new city, get to meet new people, and have time to go sightseeing in a new area.

【3】 There are websites where you find the advertisements by people who want to travel, and by replying to the advertisement, you can make arrangements to go and look after their home.

There are some requirements to be a house sitter. You must be a trusted person, so that the home owner knows you will not steal anything. You must be able to go when the house owner wants you to go, so you need lots of free time. 【4】 You need to be good with pets, able to care for cats and dogs, or other pets they may have.

Some house sitting jobs are just for a few days or a couple of weeks while the house owners have a short holiday. Sometimes it is for much longer. We have had one house sit for six months, while the home owner travelled to Europe.

【5】 Then you can travel to many different countries and stay there. One of the important things to get is references from the home owners where you have stayed. A reference is a written letter to say that you are trustworthy and have looked after their home well. You can show these letters to possible house sitting jobs and they know you will do a good job.

A. I have done house sitting many times.

B. Thousands of people do this all the time.

C. It is also possible to do house sitting in other countries.

D. Generally you have many opportunities to get a house sitting job.

E. You must take a little care over what your description says about you.

F. This is an international house sitting service for all city and country areas.

G. You must have a good car, so you can travel to different parts of the country.

【题目】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选项。选项中的两项为多余选项。

Coffee is one of the most popular drinks around the world. 【1】 Experts claim that there are more flavors of coffee than there are of wine. Coffee contains caffeine, an element (成分) that raises our awareness, keeps us from falling asleep or simply gives us a kick in the morning or after lunch.

2 For a long time doctors have told people not to drink too much coffee, because it may lead to heart problems, high blood pressure, insomnia (失眠) and headaches.

Scientists have now found out that it is the quality of coffee and the way it is brewed (冲泡) that holds the key to our health. 3 Among other things, this is linked to the consumption of a strong brew of coffee. Experts also point out that different roasts and types of coffee beans have different effects on our health.

A new study by a Harvard research group says that there is no link between coffee and health problems. 4 Doctors, however, warn against drinking too much coffee, as it can lead to stomach problems.

Coffee has many advantages, as the new study suggests. While alcohol makes people sleepy and slow-moving, coffee gives them energy. 5

Although a lot still needs to be uncovered about coffee, it seems to reduce the risk of cancer and diabetes. Reports show that people who drink coffee may develop Parkinson’s disease later in life, or maybe not at all.

A. There are many different types of coffee.

B. Scientists ask people not to drink coffee at night.

C. Elderly people in Greece live longer than normal.

D. But experts are still undecided on how healthy coffee is.

E. Sugar can change the different levels of caffeine in a cup of coffee.

F. Drinking several cups of coffee a day is not connected with heart diseases.

G. Getting together for a cup of coffee also has a positive effect on relationships.

【题目】“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 2016 by job website—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 (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 educationand training,you have to learn to balance optimism(乐观主义)and confidence with being realistic about your particular talents and skills.

【1】 What is the passage mainly about?

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.

【2】What is the top career choice among UK teenagers aged between 13 and 17 according to the article?

A. Medicine. B. Law. C. Bank. D. Education.

【3】 All of the following are the benefits of being a doctor or a lawyer except .

A. respect from others

B. the oldest profession

C. high pay

D. upward social class

【4】 What can be learned from the last two paragraphs?

A. Careers such as waiters are not as rewarding as doctors and lawyers.

B. Specific education and training can help get a good job.

C. Responsibility is the most important when you choose a good job.

D. Optimism and confidence is more important than being realistic when choosing careers.
