13.What should you think about when trying to find your career?You are probably better at some school subjects than others.These may show strengths that you can use in your work.A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career.A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work.So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school.On the other hand,you may not have any specially strong subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard.Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job,they may have indirect value.The knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details.This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.
Your school may have taught you skills,such as typing or technical drawing,which you can use in your work.You may be good at metalwork or cookery and look for a job where you can improve these skills.If you have had a part-time job on Saturdays or in the summer,think what you gained from it.If nothing else,you may have learned how to get to work on time,to follow instructions and to get on with older workers.You may have learned to give correct change in a shop,for example.Just as important,you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part-time job.
Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself.You may be all thumbs when you handle tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures.It is better to face any weakness than to pretend they do not exist.Your school record,for instance,may not be too good,yet it is an important part of your background.You should not be apologetic about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work.

11.We can infer from the first paragraph thatB.
A.learning better at school shows power in your job
B.the better you are at school subjects,the more helpful they are in your career.
C.learning each subject well is an ability in many jobs.
D.we should think about how to find our career
12.From the passage we learn that if a student's school performance is not good,he willD.
A.have no hope in his future work
B.be hopeful to find a suitable job
C.regret not having worked harder at school
D.have an opportunity of a new beginning in his future work
13.All the subjects may have direct value for job hunting exceptC.
A.mathematics B.English C.history D.technical drawing
14.The underlined phrase"be all thumbs"(in Paragraph 3)probably means"C".
A.important B.the best C.heavy-handed D.skilled
15.The passage mainly discussesC.
A.How to show strengths in your work
B.how to get a job
C.The relationship between school performance and career
D.working experience and knowledge at school.

分析 这篇文章主要讨论在学校里学会各科知识和学会一些技能对为来的工作具有直接和间接的价值.所有的功课都没有学好,也没有校外兼职的经历,只要你学会了按时上班,按照说明操作,知道与人相处,也具有价值.教育我们在学校应该好好学习,好好表现.

解答 11:B段落大意题.第一段的主要内容是说学校里的任何课程对于我们的职业都具有价值,有些是直接的,有些是间接的.即使像历史那样的学科,学得好也对许多工作有作用.根据段意可知答案是B.
12:D细节理解题.根据短文的最后一句You should not be apologetic about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work 你不应该道歉,而是意识到,你将有机会在工作中一个全新的开始,可知答案是D.
13:C推理判断题.根据第一段中的内容Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job,they may have indirect value.The knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details.This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs,虽然并不是所有的科目都可以直接使用在工作,他们可能有间接价值,比如历史知识对大多数工作来说不需要,但是如果历史好,你将学会记住事实和细节,这是一种能力,可以在许多工作中国用到,可以判定历史是有间接价值的,答案是C.
14.C.猜测词义题,"…when you handle tools"意思是在你操作工具时,由此,短语"be all thumbs"应该是描述人们操作工具时的状态或样子,而该句中分号后面的半句话perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures意为"也许你拼写很糟糕或不能把一列数字相加",由此判断出第三段第二句是基于该段主题句而举出的关于"弱点"的一些例子,前半句中的"be all thumbs"应该是形容人们操作工具时不熟练、笨拙.故选C.
15:C.主旨大意题.这段文字主要讨论的是学习表现与职业的关系.不是怎样能找到工作,怎么在工作中发挥力量,也不是讨论工作经验与学科知识.故选C.

点评 本篇文章主要是细节理解方面的题型,需要考生通过跳读迅速找到对应的句子进行详细理解,句子的理解可以结合上下文意思,通过逻辑推理得到.

8.Do you dream of the day you can drive a car?In the United States,teenagers can get their driver's license when they are only 16years old,but it feels like forever until that day comes.Trust me,because I've been there.
(26)C But in my opinion,it's worth it because it means having a lot more freedom.I'm from the rural (乡下的) state of Iowa that doesn't have much public transportation,and everything there is really spread out.So until I turned 16,my parents had to drive me pretty much everywhere.
(27)E First,in Iowa,everyone can get their learner's permit at the age of 14,which means you can only drive if your parent is sitting in the seat next to you.
(28)DIn the state of Iowa,if you live more than a mile (1.6km) away from school you can get a school permit.You can only drive to school and back home.Luckily,I lived just over a mile away from school,so I was able to drive my mom's car to school.(29)G
Finally,after taking (and passing) a three-month-long driver's education course and the final test,I was able to get my driver's license.(30)A It did in fact make life quite a bit easier.

A.I could almost taste the freedom already.
B.Still,on the day of my driver's test,I was nervous.
C.Getting a driver's license takes a lot of time and energy.
D.The next step was getting my school permit at the age of 15.
E.There were several steps before I got that special plastic card.
F.To many people,getting a driver's license involves a lot of luck.
G.But if you were caught going outside that route (路线) you would get in big trouble.
3.AIDS researchers say they still have much work to do on a vaccine (疫苗)against HIV.But the first reports of some success have raised hopes.(33)C 
The study was designed to test for two abilities.One was the ability of the vaccine to prevent HIV infections.The other was its ability to reduce the amount of virus in the blood of people who became infected during the study.
Volunteers received vaccinations over a period of six months and were tested for HIV for an additional three years.The study began in 2003.It was the largest AIDS vaccine trial yet.(34)F    Half received the vaccine.The other half received a placeho,an inactive substance (物质).The volunteers did not know which they were getting.
Seventy-four people in the placeho group became infected during the study.(35)D  Doctor Supachai Rerks-Ngarm,who led the study for the Thai Ministry of Public Health,called it a scientific breakthrough.
The National Institutes of Health also took part.Doctor Anthony Fauci at NIH called the findings an important step forward.(36)G But he also said additional research was needed to better understand how the vaccine reduced the risk in those individuals.
The vaccine did not lower the amount of virus in the blood of volunteers who became infected during the study.The study was based on versions of HIV commonly found in Thailand.The volunteers received a combination of two vaccines.(37)A  The second,or booster,vaccine was developed by VaxGen.The nonprofit group Global Solution for Infectious Diseases now has rights to it.
Neither vaccine had been successful by itself when tested earlier.More detailed results of the study are expected to be presented at an AIDS vaccine conference in Paris next month.

A.The first,or prime,vaccine came from the Sanofi Pasteur company.
B.The AIDS vaccine raises hopes for those who get infected and will defeat the disease thoroughly.
C.Scientists say an experimental vaccine reduced the risk of infection in humans by thirsty-one percent and was safe.
D.The researchers say that was compared with only fifty-one of those who received the vaccine.
E.AIDS is a very serious phenomenon in Thailand.
F.It involved more than sixteen thousand adults in Thailand.
G.He said it represented the first time an investigational HIV vaccine had shown some ability to prevent infection.
