【题目】Mechanical Engineering

Do you like to build with blocks? Have you ever wondered how planes stay in the air? Do you like to design and create new things? If you do,a career(职业)in mechanical engineering might be right for you!

A mechanical engineer is responsible for coming up with and designing mechanical systems. Mechanical systems can include machine design,heating and cooling equipment,and product design.

Mechanical engineers are in high need right now. There are a lot of job openings for mechanical engineers,but there aren't enough people to fill those jobs. Because there is a high need for engineers and the work requires specialized knowledge,engineers get paid more than some other careers.

To be a mechanical engineer,you need to graduate from college with a bachelor's(学士)degree. In college,you will learn problem solving and critical thinking skills.

Problem solving is very important in the field of mechanical engineering.To come up with the best solution to a problem,mechanical engineers need to think in different ways. They also need to be creative,because they may need to make something that's never been made before. Paying attention to details(细节)is important as well. Many designs depend on a lot of little details.

Mechanical engineers also need to be able to use different tools,such as calculators,high-speed cameras,and computers. There are many computer programs mechanical engineers use to create designs,run scenarios(方案),and do research.

As with many other jobs,mechanical engineers should be able to meet deadlines(期限)and work well with other people. Some jobs can be done with just one person, but more often mechanical engineers work on a team to complete a project. If an engineer cannot manage his or her time well and misses a deadline,the whole team gets delayed(拖延).

Some engineers work in an office,and some travel to different worksites while a machine or product is being built,so they can help solve any problems.

Mechanical engineering takes a lot of thought. It is a great career for people who like to make objects and machines work,solve problems,and be creative!

【题目】 If you are reading this article in class, you are probably trying to read it quickly. You have been taught to skim and scan, to ______ key words so as to understand the main idea of the article and the important points in the article. Skimming and scanning is a good method when you are pressed for time, such as when you are taking an exam, but, today, many people skim and scan everything and they have ______ the ability to enjoy reading.

In response to this, something called the “slow reading movement” has become popular. The idea is that people should ______ their computers and mobile phones for half an hour or forty-five minutes each day and enjoy reading a good book — slowly! In many cities there are even slow reading clubs where members go to a café, not to discuss books, but to sit quietly with each other, drink coffee and just read.

Reading, of course, isn’t easy. You have to sit still, for one thing. And it can seem ______when compared to the excitement of playing video games. But, for me, reading has been along-lasting ______ in my life. From the age of ten, when I got my first library card, I’ve enjoyedthe company of pirates and heroes, of evil criminals and clever detectives, of thousands of interestingpeople I would have never met in real life. Reading provided me with escape, but it also ______ meto understand the world around me. It was an education in a classroom that had no walls.

In your classroom, you have learned to read “fast.” Outside of the classroom, you should try to learn to read “slowly.” You may be surprised at how much you enjoy it.

You are in your last year of junior high school. 65. Do you look forward to the life in high school? Are you ready for a fresh start in a new environment? Some high school graduates from the United States share their tips.

Organize and plan your studies

“The biggest thing is to keep organized,” says Philip. 66.Note-taking is a good skill that can help you keep organized. He says you can use either paper or online tools to help with your studies. “I would transfer(转换) paper notes online and make study guides. It can help me do well in all my schoolwork.”

Find your interests

“I knew I was more of a science kid," says Jeff. He joined the school’s Science Olympiad team. He won the first prize in an international math contest, 67.所以他被允许不做数学家庭作业。 And he even decided on his colleague major, although most students don’t need to make their choices so early.

Find good ways to relieve stress(释放压力) and have fun

“It’s not just study, study, study,” says Roslyn. “I was a track(田径) runner and I really like running. 68.It is a good way for me to enjoy the school life.” Eric agrees. He says, 69. “为了让我们的生活不一样,我们可以做一些有趣的事情。”
