AWhether you are entering the job market for the first time or you are already at work, you hav e to know the various fields where you can work and the types of jobs available per field. Now it is time that you gained basic knowledge about ten common fields of work and some types of jobs in that field. Here they are:Technology JobsThe technology field is always growing very fast, so job growth in the field is also constantly booming. Here, you are always in the cutting-edge. However, you always have to update your skills when you are working in technology. Engineering and IT graduates are people who primarily do work related to technology.Education JobsHere is a field which allows you to share your knowledge with others. You need subject-matter knowledge and teaching skills to be in this field. Most of all, you need plenty of hearts. While the everyday life teachers may be tiring, education is one of the most fulfilling (令人满意的) fields to enter. You may need some certifications, though. Healthcare JobsHealthcare professions enable you to use a great knowledge base of the human body and of latest health advances so you can save lives, provide comfort, cure illness, and maintain people’s health. Work here is often done in hospitals and private clinics.Science and MathematicsDiscovering new knowledge is the primary task of scientists and mathematicians. Training here takes a long time and goes beyond getting a bachelor’s degree. However, the work will be fulfilling, especially that you may be at the edges of revolutionary discoveries. You can also use any experience and research skills acquired in either field to work in regular employment settings.21. When you are in search of a job ________________.A. you should have gained work experienceB. you should know yourself wellC. you should be expert in different job fieldsD. you should have a good command of technology22.

What is the first aim of scientists and mathematicians?A. Training for a long time.B. Using experience and research skills.C. Discovering new knowledge.D. Getting a bachelor’s degree.BOne of the greatest contributors to the first Oxford English Dictionary was also one of its most unusual. In 1879, Oxford University in England asked Prof. James Murray to serve as editor for what was to be the most ambitious dictionary in the history of the English language. It would include every English word possible and would give not only the definition but also the history of the word and quotations(引文) showing how it was used.This was a huge task, so Murray had to find volunteers from Britain, the United States, and the British colonies to search every newspaper, magazine, and book ever written in English. Hundreds of volunteers responded, including William Chester Minor. Dr. Minor was an American surgeon who had served in the Civil War and was now living in England. He gave his address as “Broadmoor, Crowthorne, Berkshire，” 50 miles from Oxford.Minor joined the army of volunteers sending words and quotations to Murray. Over the next 17 years, he became one of the staff's most valued contributors.But he was also a mystery. In spite of many invitations, he would always decline to visit Oxford. So in 1897, Murray finally decided to travel to Crowthorne himself. When he arrived, he found Minor locked in a book－lined cell at the Broadmoor Asylum(精神病院) for the Criminally Insane.Murray and Minor became friends, sharing their love of words. Minor continued contributing to the dictionary, sending in more than 10，000 submissions in 20 years. Murray continued to visit Minor regularly, sometimes taking walks with him around the asylum grounds.In 1910, Minor left Broadmoor for an asylum in his native America. Murray was at the port to wave goodbye to his remarkable friend.Minor died in 1920, seve n years before the first edition of the Oxford English Dictionary was completed. The 12 volumes defined 414, 825 words, and thousands of them were contributions from a very scholarly and devoted asylum patient.26．According to the text, the first Oxford English Dictionary______．A．came out before Minor diedB．was edited by an American volunteerC．included the English words invented by MurrayD．was intended to be the most ambitious English dictionary27．How did Dr. Minor contribute to the dictionary?A．He helped Murray to find hundreds of volunteers.B．He sent newspapers, magazines and books to Murray.C．He provided a great number of words and quotations.D．He went to England to work with Murray.28．Prof. Murray and Dr. Minor became friends mainly because______．A．they both served in the Civil WarB．they had a common interest in wordsC．Minor recovered with the help of MurrayD．Murray went to America regularly to visit Minor29．Which of the following best describes Dr. Minor?A．Brave and determined. B．Cautious and friendly.C．Considerate and optimistic. D．Unusual and scholarly.30．What does the text mainly talk about?A．The history of the English language.B．The friendship between Murray and Minor.C．Minor and the first Oxford English Dictionary.D．Broadmoor Asylum and its patients.CLast week I went to a different grocery store. When I was just to check out, the person in front of me at the checkout was using a WIC card to check out and it kept telling her that it wasn’t worki ng. A manager came over and told her to come to a different register(收银机); maybe this one was the problem. After I checked out, I noticed she was still there, trying to get her card to work.It was obvious that the young woman was getting anxious about the purchase so I offered to pay for her purchase. She was shocked. She thanked me and I went on my way with a smile from her.Everyone needs a helping hand sometimes and you never know when it will be your turn. Today I found that it was indeed my turn.I went boating north of the city. It was a very hot, sunny day so I brought a large bottle of sports drink, thinking it would be plenty to drink. I didn’t have a clear expectation of the drain(消耗) which the heat would have on me. Before I got back to shore, I realized that I had finished the bottle. I still had to get back, load the boat on the car, and it would be at least a 10-minute drive to somewhere to buy more to drink. When I got back to shore and managed to drag my boat to the car and get it tied, I was very hot and thirsty. So, I swallowed my pride and asked a family picnicking nearby if they had an extra bottle of water, which they gladly gave me. T hat bottle of water wasn’t a big deal to them, but it meant a great deal to me.The little things that can be done for others don’t usually seem important to the people doing them, but it can be huge to the receivers. Many thanks to all the joyful givers who don’t think twice about helping others.31. The author helped the woman because_______.A. the author wanted to shock herB. her card for payment didn’t workC. the register in the store was out of orderD. the author had enough money to help others32. It can be inferred from the fourth paragraph that________.A. the author offered his own water to othersB. the author didn’t know his water had run outC. the author wasn’t well prepared for his boatingD. the author was helped by the family also boating there33. How did the author most probably feel when asking others for a bottle of water?A. EmbarrassedB. ProudC. FrightenedD. Curious34. What does the author think of little kind things?A. It takes great effort for people to do them.B. They must be done after careful consideration.C. They can make a big difference to the receivers.D. They always mean a lot to people who do them.35. The text is written mainly to _________.A. introduce two experiences of the authorB. tell us not to be shy to receive others’ helpC. remind us to smile at others in our daily lifeD. encourage us not to hesitate to help others第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）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。

2021年高二上学期第一次（10月）月考英语试题含答案第二部分阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)I was in a shopping mall recently, and I decided to go and get a cup of tea. As I was making my way to the coffee shop, I noticed an old gentleman rather poorly dressed sitting on a bench nearby. I knew from the first sight that he was in need of some kind of help. He had a little lunch in front of him and was wholeheartedly enjoying it.There was a young man in front of me in the line also waiting to be served. The young man handed the servant a twenty-dollar bill and asked for an orange juice as well as a favor. The servant looked at the young man with a little surprise, not fully understanding him. The young man asked her to give the juice to the old gentleman eating his lunch outside on the bench. The young man also told her that he would be watching every second so that she would be pletely safe at all times. Later, there was a wonderful exchange (交换) between the waitress and the old man. I only wished I had taken a photo of the smiles on both of their faces.As I was thinking about this event later on, I wondered why the young man didn’t just perform this act of kindness himself. I thought he was hoping thatthis act of kindness might inspire others to do something for the old man as well. Thinking of the happy smiles on the old man’s face, I felt how worthwhile it is to help others.21. The underlined word “favor” in Para. 2 refers to .A. passing the young man a cup of orange juiceB. buying lunch for the old manC. giving the juice to the old manD. exchanging meals with the old man22. Which of the following can be used to describe the young man?A. Humorous and helpful.B. Generous and proud.C. Rich and friendly.D. Kind and considerate.23. In the author’s opinion, the young man asked the servant to take the juice to the old man so that .A. more people would be inspired to do good deedsB. he would bee famous for his good deedC. the old man could probably accept itD. he would bee a friend of the servantBThe Horn of Plenty is one of the largest natural health food stores withinthe Greater Hamilton area. We are big supporters of buying locally and we are here to tell you why it is so important for your family, the munity and the environment.The concept (概念) of buying locally is simple: buy food produced, grown, or raised as close to your home as possible. Not only will your food be fresher and tastier, but you are helping protect the environment and are supporting businesses within your munity and reducing pollution.Better for the environmentSustainability (持续性) and global warming are such hot topics at the moment, and many people want to do their bit to help support a healthier environment. Small action carried out by many people can make a big difference. Most materials in an average North American meal have traveled about 1,500 miles to get from farm to plate. To cut out a big part of this travel would greatly reduce not only pollution from transportation and r efrigeration but also customers’ expenses as well.Taste and nutritional contentLocally-grown fruits and vegetables are usually sold within 24 hours of being harvested. Because they are picked at the height of ripeness (成熟) and travel only a short distance to the market, their freshness, nutrition, and flavor arekept. Produce trucked in from far away may lose both taste and nutritional content.munity and home valuesWhen you buy direct from a farmer or buy locally-grown foods, you are engaging in a time-honored tradition between a grower and an eater. You also help keep dollars within your munity.24. It can be inferred from the third paragraph that .A. global warming is the most serious problem nowB. the increased cost of transporting food is passed on to the customersC. North American food is rich in various kinds of materialsD. most people support buying locally25. Locally-grown fruits and vegetables taste good mostly because .A. they are sent to the market at a high speedB. they are not polluted by chemical fertilizerC. they can be harvested at any timeD. they are picked when they are fully grown26. According to the author, when you buy locally-grown foods .A. you can see how fruits and vegetables growB. you will bee much healthier and prettierC. you will contribute to protecting the environmentD. you are making money from your munity27. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. The benefits of buying locally.B. The popularity of the Horn of Plenty.C. The importance of protecting the environment.D. The way to keep your food tasty and healthy.CPeople often say that money talks. They mean that a person with a lot of money can say how he or she wants things done. But it is not easy to earn enough money to gain this kind of power.Sometimes people in business feel businesses are as dangerous as wild animals in a jungle. They have to be careful if they are to survive the jungle out there. They must not be led into making bogus investments (投资). Bogus means something that is not real. It was said that the word came from a criminal (罪犯) whose name was Borghese. Borghese wrote checks to people although he didn’t have money. After he wrote the checks, he would disappear. So, people who were paid with his checks received nothing.People trying to earn money also must be aware of being ripped off. A personwho is ripped off has had something stolen, or at least has been treated unfairly. To keep from getting ripped off in business, people had better try to earn money step by step instead of getting rich quickly.To be successful, a person in business works hard and tries to get down to brass tacks. For example, a salesman may talk about his product without saying the price. You get down to brass tacks when you say, “It sounds good, but how much does it cost?” Word experts thought the expression came from sailors on ships. They cleaned the bottom of a boat. After they finished, they were down to the brass tacks, the copper pieces that held the boat together. So, if we get down to brass tacks, we can avoid rip-offs and bogus ways of earning money.28. What would happen to those people who make bogus investments?A. They would lose a lot of money.B. They would disappear after that.C. They would receive nothing but checks.D. They were more likely to be punished by law.29. The best way to avoid being ripped off in business is to .A. work as hard as possibleB. ask for checks in advanceC. avoid being wealthy eagerlyD. earn as more money as you can30. When doing business, people prefer to get down to brass tacks to .A. keep themselves from being fooledB. develop more ways of earning moneyC. reduce their production costsD. get in touch with more partners31. In which part of a newspaper can we find this passage?A. News and business.B. The history of language.C. Words and their stories.D. Funny new expressions.DMore often than not, people will look at the phone screen to check for new messages or have a quick look at Facebook. Researchers have now found why we often feel such a strong need to look at our phones. Using the mobile phone, they say, is contagious (蔓延的).A team says people are twice as likely to pull out their phones to check their text messages or e-mails if they’re with someone that has just done the same. They also found that women were more likely to use their mobile phones than men. The team watched students in dining halls and coffee shops around the college, observing pairs of college students sitting at tables for as long as 20 minutes and recording their cellphone use. “What we found most interesting was just how often people were using their mobile phones,” Dr. Daniel Kruger, the study’s co-author, said. “Every person we studi ed used his or her phoneat least once while one woman was on hers about half of the time. People saw others checking their ining messages and began to check their own.”“Cellphones create another choice for one’s attention and may both support and disagre e with live social activities,” the researchers wrote. Kruger believed this could be explained by the effects of social inclusion (包含) and exclusion (排除). If one person in a pair starts a conversation through his phone, the other one may feel excluded and then feel the need to get in touch with others so as not to feel left out.The researchers note that they might not get the same result in a study of different people—for example, older adults, who may not have a habit of using cellphones so often.32. From the study we can learn that .A. people can affect each other in using mobile phonesB. using mobile phones has nothing to do with social activitiesC. men are more likely to be affected by others’ using mobile phonesD. the sound of mobile phones makes using mobile phones contagious33. If old adults are studied, the researchers .A. will find that old adults don’t like to use mobile phonesB. will find that mobile phones are harmful to healthC. will no longer like using mobile phonesD. may reach a different result34. Which can best describe the author’s attitude towards using mobile phones?A. Supportive.B. Objective.C. Indifferent.D. Opposed.35. Which can be the best title for the passage?A. How to use mobile phones correctlyB. Why college students like mobile phonesC. Relation between mobile phones and people’s hobbiesD. Something interesting about the habit of using mobile phones第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)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。

What was your favorite childhood memory and what was your favorite as a child? Or what your favorite Christmas present or your favorite candy bar when growing up? Answers may come easily for some people but for others，it may take more time to think about.Mary Jo McCarthy of Pequot Lakes wants to help others document their childhood memories which could be treasured by current families and for generations to come. McCarthy, 64, a short story author and retired columnist (专栏作家) for the Lake Country Echo weekly newspaper, began hosting a writing seminar (研讨班) titled “A Time to Remember”. The closes are limited to 12 people and are conducted in the nursery at Lutheran Church of the Cross in Nisswa and the registration fee is $25.McCarthy said what led her to start the writing seminars was writing others’ biographies(传记). A retired businessman asked her to write his biography as a ghost writer. She said others from her church in Pequot Lakes had also asked her to write their biographies because they didn’t know how to write them. She thought hosting a class to help people write their own biographies would be more beneficial to them.McCarthy said people had busy lifestyles those days and didn’t have a chance to sit down and write down their memories that they might forget and never remember. She said writing down the memories would document the person’s life，so other family members，especially future generations would be able to read about them.4．In paragraph 1 the author raises some questions to________.A．introduce the topic of the textB．express his/her puzzle about memoriesC．give some examples for readers about biographiesD．provide background details for readers about the retired columnist5．What can we learn about McCarthy?A．She was strict with her studentsB．She didn’t take charge of seminarsC．She got support from the local governmentD．She once worked as a columnist in a newspaper6．It can be inferred from the passage that__________．A．writing biographies is an easy jobB．a biography is part of family historyC．McCarthy had her own biographies publishedD．fewer and fewer people feel interested in biographies7．The passage is mainly intended to________.A．show how to write biographiesB．help people communicate with their familiesC．call on people to write their own biographiesD．introduce McCarthy and her writing seminarsIt was a normal school day for senior Solymar Solis until an unexpected visitor arrived.
