He had been forced to take a job stocking shelves at a local grocery store for $8.90 an hour when he couldn't get work fixing floors.On a good day in Australia, he now makes as much as 50 Australian dollars( US $50.21 ) an hour—about twice the amount for a typical flooring job in the US. He plans to start his own flooring business.“I can make what I did in a week in the US in less than a day here”,said Mr. Davila, who lives near a mining boom town in Western Australia.Australian government figures show just under 7,000 Americans currently work on longterm visas, an 80% jump over the past five citizens are now thethirdlargest group applying for socalled 457 work visas, after British and Indian nationals. Americans with degrees in areas such as accounting or mine engineering, as well as other skilled workers,can obtain a nonrenewable(不可更新的) permit for as much as a threeyear stay.After that, they can apply f or the renewable 457, which allows up to a fouryea r stay.The need for workers is particularly pressing in Western Australia.The mining state's unemployment rate was 4.5% in Novem ber, below the national average of 5.2%. Drivers of heavy trucks can pull in sixfigure salaries while experienced crane(起重机) operators can earn hundreds of thousands a year. Attracting skilled workers is a shift for Australia, which historically sent many of its most highly educated to the US and Europe, according to migration data.36.________, a growing number of Americans go to work in Australia.A.As a result of the encouragement of AustraliaB.As a result of high unemployment in the USC.Out of their ambition of finding valuable resourcesD.Out of their determination to realize their dreams37.It can be inferred from the passage that 457 work visas are ________.A.for skilled workers in some fieldsB.for students on the building projectC.especially for American workersD.especially for those out of work38.It is implied in the passage that ________.A.foreigners have to give up their original professional jobs when working in AustraliaB.it is possible for foreigners to earn more money in Australia than in their own countriesC.there are more US citizens hoping to work in Australia than from other countriesD.Australians think it fair to exchange their talent with American sk illed workers39.Which part of Australia needs workers particularly?A.Northwestern Australia.B.Eastern Australia.C.Southeastern Australia.D.Western Australia.课时作业(十五)Ⅰ.1.D 考查虚拟语气。

rewarding people who have done something good in their countries,there are now hundreds of awards and awards ceremonies for all kinds of things.The Oscars are probably the most famous,a time for the(mostly)American film industry to tell itself how good it is,an annual opportunity for lots of big stars to give each other awards and make tearful speeches.But it’s not only films—now there are also Grammies,Brits,the Mercury Prize and the MTV and Q awards for music.In Britain,a writer who wins the Booker prize can expect to see their difficult,literary novel hit the bestseller lists and compete with the“Da Vinci Code”for popularity.The Turner Prize is an award for a British contemporary artist—each year it causes controversy(争论)by apparently giving lots of money to artists who do things like display their beds,put animals in glass cases or—this year—build a garden shed.Shakespeare never won a prize,nor did Leonardo da Vinci or Adam Smith or Charles Dickens.It would be possible to say,however,that in the past,scientists and a rtists could win“patronage”from rich people—a king or a lord would give the artist or scientist money to have them paint their palaces or help them develop new ways of making money.With the change in social systemsacross the world,this no longer happens.A lot of scientific research is now either funded by the state or by private companies.Perhaps awards ceremonies are just the most recent face of this process.However,there is more to it than that.When a film wins an Oscar,many more people will go and see it,or buy the DVD.When a writer wins the Nobel Prize,many more people buy their books.When a group wins the MTV awards,the ceremony is seen by hundreds of thousands of people across the world.The group sells lots more records.Most awards ceremonies are now sponsored by big organizations or companies.This means that it is not only the person who wins the award who benefits—but also the sponsors.The MTV awards,for example,are great for publicizing not only music,but also MTV itself!On the surface,it seems to be a“win-win”situation,with everyone being happy,but let me ask you a question—how far do you think that publicity and marketing are winning here,and how much sincere recognition of achievement is taking place?1.Which of the following awards often confuses the public by giving a prize to people who do unusual things?A.The Turner Prize. B.The Booker Prize.C.The Mercury Prize. D.The Oscars.2.From the context of the paragraph we can infer that“patronage”was perhaps______.A.an official position in the governmentB.the works of ancient scientists and artistsC.the professional qualification for a postD.an old-fashioned form of prize-giving3.At the end of the text,the writer shows concern about whether______.A.people are really being given credit for what they have doneB.people are happy to do something good for their countriesC.it is worthwhile to launch so many awardsD.so many awards will continue to be given around the world4.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the text?A.The Oscars are given to(usually)American film stars and directors.B.The Booker Prize can help someone who is not usually successful become successful.C.When people win awards,they usually become richer and more famous.D.The MTV awards publicize the people who win them more than the people who are giving them.参考答案与解析课时作业(五)Unit 3A卷一、单项填空1.解析:句意:别这么灰心,如果你把这种感觉收起来,你下次会做得更好些。

It was exactly like the one on the firstwall.But the second artist had not seen what was going on,on the other side of the curtain.The king gave the second artist a double reward,and then asked,“I am indeed very happywith your work.But how did you do it?”The man said simply,“It’s very easy!

much you love them is by building them a great doghouse of their very own.Make sure that your dog is safe,comfortable,and happy by following these tips when building your doghouse.Consider the breed of your dog.What your dog will need to have their doghouse equipped with depends largely on their breeds.If your dog has long or thick hair or is a traditionally “cold weather”breed like a Malamute or a Husky,they will need less protection from inclement weather than a smaller or shorter haired dog like a Chihuahua.If you are unsure or if your dog is a mixed breed,ask an expert about any special consideration that you might need to keep in mind when building a doghouse.Measure your dog.Your dog will reach an average height and weight when full-grown depending on breeds.Even if you are building your doghouse while your dog is a puppy,you will want to make sure that the doghouse will be a comfortable size once your pet is full-grown.Imagine what size your dog will be when it is an adult and build your doghouse accordingly.Make it breathe.Enough ventilation is the most important feature of your doghouse.Even if the house is big enough for your dog,little ventilation will make it uncomfortable for your dog.So consider using materials like wood that would allow air to move freely.Make sure the main door to the doghouse is large and able to be left open,and consider an extra window in one of the doghouse's walls for extra air and light.Keep it roomy.Your dog should have enough room in the doghouse to sit,stand up,and move around.Your dog will probably take toys,sticks or other things that it likes best to the doghouse,so make sure you leave room for these things,too.Choose a proper place for the doghouse.Keep the doghouse off the ground.This keeps moisture away and keeps the dog comfortable and warm.Ⅳ.阅读简答(CNN)—Nollywood,Nigeria's(尼日利亚)growing film industry,has developed in recent years into a powerful movie-making machine,attracting audiences with its universal themes and strong narratives of urban culture.The giant industry,one of Nigeria's biggest employers,has been dismissed as a factory rushing more than 1,000 typically low-budget films a year,producing a wide range of stories with themes from romance and drama to comedy and witchcraft.It is now the third-largest producer of feature films(故事片)in the world,ranking behind only Hollywood in the US and India's Bollywood revenue(收入).And lately,instead of relying on modest budgets,many Nollywood movies are attracting funding of a few million dollars,benefiting from the films' growing popularity.But while the industry gets bigger,insiders say Nollywood has remained true to its key to success—its connection with the audience.Nigerian director Lancelot Imasuen,who is now working on a $2 million film called “Invasion 1987,”says Nollywood movies are made for Nigerians and the rest of the continent.“People get in touch with Nollywood's direct realism,” says Imasuen.“People are getting more and more interested,more and more involved in(参与)our productions because they can feel the pains,they can feel the excitement and it's so real to them.” Imasuen,a pioneering filmmaker with more than 10 years of experience,says that Nollywood's themes make the audience feel very familiar with the stories by getting them to feel part of the stories.And that,he says,is the industry's big advantage compared to the competition posed by Hollywood productions.“For us in Africa,we just get entertained by American films,”says Imasuen.“When I'm watching Spiderman or Batman and all that,it's just for spectacle(壮观的场面).I'm just having fun because I know its not realistic for the guy just to fly here and there—there is nothing that relates to us as Nigerians or Africans.”1.What is the secret of

第四部分任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)Made In The USA: An Export BoomIn his State of the Union address two years ago, President Obama argued that in order to recover from the economic recession, one of the few things the U.S. needed to do was to export more goods around the world. That night, the president unveiled a new goal: to double U.S. exports over the next five years. It would be an increase that the president said would “support two million jobs in America.”Most economists dismissed the promise at the time as something unrealistic, but two years later, the U.S. is on pace to meet that goal. American exports are up 34 percent since the president gave that speech, and the number continues to rise.Competitive In A Global MarketMarlin Steel, a metal working business in Baltimore, makes parts that ship all across the world.“We export to 36 countries,” owner Drew Greenblatt tells All Things Considered Host Guy Raz.“We're working around the clock, and we're growing.”It's not just advanced manufacturing exports on the rise, but pork, cattle and all kinds of agricultural exports are up as well. Even American craft beer has found an export market.Flying Dog CEO Jim Caruso says that increasingly, people all over the world are trying the beer from the Maryland-based brewery. Caruso says,“Even in those top beer-producing countries, a competitive American product is finding a market.”Services Are Exports, TooAnother place exports are coming from is New York City—in particular, the 30th floor of a Manhattan skyscraper on 5th Avenue and 52nd Street. That's where the consulting firm Kurt Solomon lies. It doesn't actually produce a product for export; it provides management advice and strategy.“Four out of every five Americans is now employed in the service industry,” the nation's top trade official,Ron Kirk says, “Services are a significant part of our exports, and make up about a quarter of our exported goods.” These services can include everything from legal consulting, finance, information technology and even engineering.And There Are Other FactorsSo why has there been an increase of more than 30 percent for exports in almost everything? Part of the increase, at least for the manufacturing side, is due to better technology, says Tyler Cowen, an economist.“A lot of it is being driven by smart machines,” he tells Raz,“The U.S. has high wage rates, which is a disadvantage, but if machines are doing a lot of the work, that doesn't matter.”China factors a lot in America's export economy, too.“Wages in China have been going up as the c ountry becomes more productive. Thus China is losing the cheap labor advantage it has held for some time.” Cowen says.Will Jobs Grow, too?“Companies have become more productive by dismissing workers and lowering costs.”Cowen says.“So I don't view exporti ng as a way of creating a very large number of jobs, but it will create more profits.”So not every business or worker is necessarily benefiting from the export boom in the U.S., and Cowen says that could ultimately lead to a polarization(两极) of economic outcomes.Made In the USA: An Export BoomOutline DetailsThe purpose of increasing exports *To help America make a (71)______ from the economic recession *To help raise the nation's (72)______ rateThe current situation *American exports have risen (73)______ thirty-four percent up to now*There has been an increase in exports in everything*The export boom does not necessarily (74)______ every business or worker(75)______ (76)______Even in those top beer-producing countries, people try craftcontributing to the export boom products beer from Flying Dog, a brewery (77)______ in Maryland VariousproductsA variety of products are provided around the world,services(78)______ for 25%Lowercosts*(79)______ take the place of labor, helping companies reducewages*China, who used to take (80)______ of cheap labor, has givenway to America in exports to some extent because of itsincreasing production任务型阅读71. recovery72. employment73. by74. benefit75.

江苏省2014届高三英语(牛津版)一轮复习攻略训练:任务型阅读(2)(二)Self-Regulated Learning Today, people change jobs an average of seven times before they retire. Many of these career changes require new learning that must be self-initiated and self-directed. Thus, one goal of teaching is to free students from the need for teachers, so they can continue to learn independently throughout their lives. That is, to make them self-regulated learners. Self-regulated learners have a combination of academic learning skills and self-control that makes learning easier.What influences self-regulated learning? Knowledge, motivation and will-power combine to influence self-regulated learning.First of all, self-regulated learners have knowledge about themselves. For example, they know their preferred learning styles; what their interests and talents are: and how to take advantage of their strengths. These experts also know quite a bit about the subject being studied-and the more they know, the easier it is to learn more. They understand different learning tasks require different approaches. Further, they havemastered adequate learning strategies and tactics. For example, they know how and when to skim and how and when to read for deep understanding.Self-regulated learners are motivated by learning itself. They find many tasks in school interesting because they value learning, not just performing well in the eyes of others. However, knowledge and motivation are not always enough. Self-regulated learners need will-power. They won't give up easily. They know how to protect themselves from distractions—for example, what to do when attracted to stop working and have a cup of coffee.A model of self-regulated learning. Phi Winne and Allyson Hadwin put forward a 4-stage model.1. Analyzing the learning task. Learners examine whatever information they think is relevant in order to construct a sense of what the task is about, what resources are available, and how they feel about the work to be done.2. Setting goals and devising plans. What goals for studying might you set for a quiz covering only one chapter that counts just 3% toward your grade? Would you goals change if the test covered the last six chaptersand counted 30% toward your course grade? Your goal in turn affects the shape of your plans for how to study. Is cramming(突击学习) the best approach? Is it a better plan to study a half-hour each day?3. Enacting tactics and strategies to accomplish the task. Learners put their tactics and strategies into practice and monitor how well the plan is working. Are you reaching your goals? Is your progress rate fast enough to be prepared for the test?4. Regulating learning. Learners have to decide whether changes are needed in any of the three preceding stages. For example, if learning is slow:Do you need to review some prior material that provides foundations for the content you are now studying?Teaching toward self-regulated learning. To develop students' self-regulated learning ability, teachers should let students take an active part in finishing complex meaningful tasks; provide them control over their learning processes and products; involve students in setting criteria for evaluating their learning processes and products, then give them opportunities to make judgments about their progress using those standards.Title: Self-Regulated Learning(三)Nowadays, more companies are accepting working from home as a practical choice. If you’d like to work from home , use the following statements to convince your boss that you’ll be just as , if not more, productive at home as you will be in the office.Firstly, you cannot distract(使分心)colleagues when working at home . A recent survey of 800 job seekers looking for work-from home jobs found that the number one reason they wanted a work-from-home job was to avoid distracting their colleagues, but not to have more time for their families or to save on costs like business clothes, lunches out, and gas. When you work at home, you can remove this major distraction and devote all your attention to your work.Secondly, it can control how often you’re interrupted.A study by the University of California, Irvine found that workers are interrupted every three minutes, and that it takes more than 20 minutes to get back to the task after an int erruption. Half the time , we’re self-interrupting (checking emails, listening to talk radio, etc.), but the other half of the time, we’re interrupted byoutside forces--- loud noises, colleagues stopping by our desks, other people’s conversations in the o ffice, etc. We can cut back on 50%of the interruption by working from home.Thirdly, it takes less sick time and fewer personal days. People who are sick enough to call in sick tend to keep working if they can work from home. We’re not saying this is th e healthiest practice, but it’s the reality of what happens, especially if the sickness is only a slight cold or stomach bug. Working from home is a win-win situation for you and your employers because you’re still working , and you aren’t passing your ger ms (病菌) along to your colleagues. Of course, it works the other way around as well. If you’re working from home regularly, you’re not exposed to illnesses from your colleagues as well.In addition, it can make you more productive. Last year, Stanford University tracked the productivity of 250 employees who worked from home for nine months, as compared to those working in the office, and the results weighed heavily in the favor of those working from home. The employees who worked from home worked 11% more hours than the office-bound workersand their overall productivity was 4% higher than that of the office-bound workers.Of course, how productive you are when working from home depends a lot on you, the employee. How do you work without supervision? Are you self-disciplined or good at self-management? Can you avoid temptations like television, napping and shopping in the middle of the day? Some people prefer the office environment because it provides more structure and supervision, so before you jump into working from home, you need to first evaluate yourself.Working from home is a practical choice ParagraphoutlinesSupporting detailsAvoidance of distraction ●Those who seek work-from jobs mainly wish to leave their colleagues undistracted.●Whil e working at home, you can fix your (1) _________ on your work.Reduction of interruption ●P eople working in offices are interrupted frequently, and after an interruption, it israther a long time before they can pick up the(2)___________.●W e’re interrup ted either by(3)__________or by outside forces.●H alf of the interruptions can be reduced if we work from home.Advantages to both sick workers and employers ●I f you are (4) ______ ill , you can still work for your employer at home.●A t the same time, you can keep your colleagues separated from your(5)___________.●W orking from home regularly can guarantee your being (6)___________ to illnesses in the workplace.High productivity The workers who work at home are more productive than thosewho work in the (7)__________ by spending more time working .(8)__________affecting your productivity at home ●Whether you are self-disciplined and good at(9)____ yourself.●Whether you can rejectvarious temptations athome .●What kind of(10)________________you prefer.11页。

neighborhood street.He was going a bit too fast in his shiny,black,12-cylinder(汽缸)Jaguar XKE.He was watching for kids rushing out from between parked cars and slowed down.Suddenly,a brick sailed out and—WHUMP!—it hit the Jag's shiny black side door!Immediately Josh stopped the car,jumped out,seized the kid and pushed him up against a parked car.He shouted at the kid,“What was that all about and who are you?Just what the heck are you doing?”Building up a head of steam,he went on,“That's my new Jag;that brick you threw will cost you a lot of money.Why?”“Please,mister,please...I'm sorry!I didn't know what else to do!”begged the youngster.“I threw the brick because no one else would stop!” Tears were streaming down the boy's face as he pointed around the parked car.“It's my brother,mister,” he said.“He fell out of his wheelchair and I can't lift him up.” Sobbing,the boy asked the businessman,“Would you please help me get him back into his wheelchair?He's hurt and he's too heavy for me.”Moved beyond words,the young businessman felt no anger.He lifted the young man back into the wheelchair and took out his handkerchief and wiped the scrapers and cuts,checking to see that everything was OK.He then watched the younger brother push him down the sidewalk.It was a long walk back to the car—a long and slow walk.Josh never did fix the side door of his Jaguar.He kept the

江苏省2014届高三英语(牛津版)一轮复习攻略训练:任务型阅读(13)第四部分任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)Have you heard or read stories about people who are sick and have been healed by listening to music? Is it a miracle or a successful form of medicine? Can listening to music relieve pain?Around the world,music therapy(疗法) is being used to treat different medical conditions and illnesses. Some of the ways people use music therapy are to reduce pain,such as in childbirth or during cancer treatments,or to stimulate brain activity after an injury or money loss. Music therapy has also been successful in aiding children to overcome disabilities. Children can move their bodies with the music and stamp along to the beat.Why is music a useful therapy? Music is soothing and relaxing, but it also stimulates our brains. Emotionally and physically, we respond to the sounds of music. But the complexity of music(the different tempos,rhythms,melodies and harmonies) provokes(激发)the biggest response. Thus,classical music is most typically used for therapies due to complex sounds and patterns. Although rap or hip hop might be fun to listen to,it’s unlikely that such styles of music would produce the same kind of therapeutic effect. Playing a musical instrument rather than simply listening to music can also be therapeutic for some people,helping relieve stress and anxiety.Have scientists been able to prove that music can heal disease? Music has been shown to reduce pain in cancer patients by increasing the release of endorphins(内啡肽). Endorphins are the body’s natural painkillers,and when we listen to music,our brains respond by releasing these natural painkillers. It has also been known to contribute to the brain development of the babies who have just been born and even babies still in the mother’s wom b. Certain types of music have also been found to lower blood pressure and slow a person’s heart rate. Many people are hopeful that music could replace the need for some medications(药物)that are normally used to treat certain illnesses. At present,music therapy is used in a variety of settings such as hospitals,rehabilitation centers,nursing homes,day cares,and schools.Although music therapy is not yet considered a mainstream treatment,it is recognized more and more as auseful addition to traditional treatment. So next time you are feeling low or stressed out,put on some relaxing music and let the music heal you.Title : Music That (71)__________The (72) _______ of music therapy to treat different medicalconditions and illnessesto reduce painto (73) _______ brain activityto overcome(74) ________ .How does music therapy (75) ___?

That night, the president unveiled a new goal: to double U.S. exports over the next five years. It would be an increase that the president said would “support two million jobs in America.”Most economists dismissed the promise at the time as something unrealistic, but two years later, the U.S. is on pace to meet that goal.

How to Graduate from College with a High GPA (Grade Point Average)One Hour a DayOne of the most challenging things about college is time management. It’s not that you don’t have enough. In fact you usually have too much time, and as a result time gets wasted. If you take good notes in class, and spend one hour reviewing your notes every day before going to sleep, you make use of the power of the subconscious (下意识) to absorb information and by the time exams come around you’ll know all the material on a subconscious level, and you don’t have to sit up the night before exams. Considering the amount of free time you usually have in college, one hour a day is not much in view of the long-term benefits.Select Easy CoursesIn your first term of college, load up on as many “easy A’s” as possible. There are several reasons for this. The first term of college is full of excitement as it is, and there are probably even more today than ever thanks to Facebook, Twitter, and more. The last thing you want to do is add difficult coursework to this. The other reason why selecting easy courses is powerful is that it allows you to start off your college career with an extremely high GPA. Good grades have less and less of an impact on your GPA later in your college career and raising your GPA becomes much more difficult. Selecting easy courses in the first term also leaves room for the occasional failure when coursework becomes more challenging.Join (or Form) Study GroupsIf you go to a large public school where classes often have 700 plus people, study groups are an extremely effective way to ensure good grades. Study groups are often led by older students who have taken the course and received A’s in that particular course. They also often provide you with resources such as practice tests, practice problems, and many others that might not be provided by professors.Use Personal DevelopmentI can honestly say I didn’t involve myse lf in personal development when I was in college. Looking back I realize that I suffered from low self-respect and a very unhealthy self-image. Without doubt this had a negative impact on my GPA. But, if I had combined personal development techniques with the three steps above, my college career would have turned out very different.If you have already started school, I recommend developing a strategy that applies these four ideas to yourcurrent schedule. If you haven’t started school yet, do some research on easier courses and what study groups might be available. If you follow through and commit to the four recommendations above, you’ll set yourself up for a very successful first term, and hopefully a very successful college career. Good luck to all of you starting the college journey.第五部分 书面表达(满分25分)66.without 67.reviewing/memorizing/learning/studying/revising 68.Select/Choose/Take/Attend 69.beginning 70.high/good/remarkable 71.member 72.resources 73.involved 74.positively 75.success 第四部分 任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。

B.Science.C.Entertainment. D.Culture.37.According to May, ________.A.resistance has a lot to do with agingB.FOXO genes can be found in wormsC.genes play the same role in different speciesD.new drugs will change the genes in older people38.What can we know from the third paragraph?A.New ways have been found to affect aging.B.Babies in the rich world will all live longer.C.Present social care systems are poorly managed.D.Aging populations are causing more challenges.39.From the text we know that DAF 16________.A.is a gene that is only found in wormsB.can make people live longerC.has an effect on aging and immunityD.has been quite familiar to scientists40.What can be the best title of the passage?A.Scientists Find Gene Linked to AgingB.Population Aging Faster than ExpectedC.How to Make People Live LongerD.Gene Determines How Long We Live课时作业(十三)Ⅰ.1.A “neither/nor+助动词/情态动词/be+主语”表示上文所陈述的情况也适用于另一人或另一物(用在否定句中);状语从句用一般现在时表将来时,则主句用一般将来时,故选A。

But a big idea in higher education these days is the massive open online course, or MOOC.Some universities offer free, noncredit MOOCs available to anyone in the world. Others charge for courses and provide credits. The idea is still developing.So far, most massive open online courses are in computer science, technology, mechanics and engineering. For example, students around the world are taking a free course called “Building a Computer Search Engine”. Two computer scientists, Sebastian Thrun and David Evans, are offering this course through . Mr. Evans is an associate professor from Virginia University and Mr. Thrun is a Stanford research professor.There are no education requirements for the course. The students watch short videos. And then they take informal quizzes after the videos each week for six weeks.David Evans said, “Quizzes are part of the lecture to keep students busy and thinking, for students to be able to check that they understood what we covered. Those aren't graded and students try those as often as they want.”They can repeatedly watch the videos and take the quizzes whenever they want.Students receive homework. They join online groups to exchange questions and answers about the course.The teachers hold virtual office hours to answer questions that the students have voted to send them. They also present their own questions and observations.The students take a final examination to show where they rate in the class.

He had been forced to take a job stocking shelves at a local grocery store for $8.90 an hour when he couldn't get work fixing floors.On a good day in Australia, he now makes as much as 50 Australian dollars( US $50.21 ) an hour—about twice the amount for a typical flooring job in the US. He plans to start his own flooring business.“I can make what I did in a week in the US in less than a day here”,said Mr. Davila, who lives near a mining boom town in Western Australia.Australian government figures show just under 7,000 Americans currently work on longterm visas, an 80% jump over the past five citizens are now thethirdlargest group applying for socalled 457 work visas, after British and Indian nationals. Americans with degrees in areas such as accounting or mine engineering, as well as other skilled workers,can obtain a nonrenewable(不可更新的) permit for as much as a threeyear stay.After that, they can apply f or the renewable 457, which allows up to a fouryea r stay.The need for workers is particularly pressing in Western Australia.The mining state's unemployment rate was 4.5% in Novem ber, below the national average of 5.2%. Drivers of heavy trucks can pull in sixfigure salaries while experienced crane(起重机) operators can earn hundreds of thousands a year. Attracting skilled workers is a shift for Australia, which historically sent many of its most highly educated to the US and Europe, according to migration data.36.________, a growing number of Americans go to work in Australia.A.As a result of the encouragement of AustraliaB.As a result of high unemployment in the USC.Out of their ambition of finding valuable resourcesD.Out of their determination to realize their dreams37.It can be inferred from the passage that 457 work visas are ________.A.for skilled workers in some fieldsB.for students on the building projectC.especially for American workersD.especially for those out of work38.It is implied in the passage that ________.A.foreigners have to give up their original professional jobs when working in AustraliaB.it is possible for foreigners to earn more money in Australia than in their own countriesC.there are more US citizens hoping to work in Australia than from other countriesD.Australians think it fair to exchange their talent with American sk illed workers39.Which part of Australia needs workers particularly?A.Northwestern Australia.B.Eastern Australia.C.Southeastern Australia.D.Western Australia.课时作业(十五)Ⅰ.1.D 考查虚拟语气。
