21、Making a good job choice is almost as good as choosing a good life. So, choosing a job is one of the most important decisions to make in life.

For my job, there are three important things that I will consider:

The first one － that I must work in an area I like － is most important to me. Someone once said if you find a job that you enjoy, then you won't have to work another day. I would like to work in an area where I can be more creative. I would like to be the most valuable member there. All this is possible only if like what I do.

The second one is that the area of my work must lead me to solve some new and hard problems. I would like to stay in the same area for a long time. In order for this to happen, the work must provide enough problems. More than just working to live, I enjoy making a difference and trying my best for the whole progress. I would also like to be well remunerated for my hard work, so I can lead a comfortable life with this hard-won money. Then I can provide the best for my family.

The third important thing is that I would like to work in an area that would help other people. The work in my mind is in fields such as the army, training or management. In such areas, I can help to develop the abilities of others and bring out their best. It would be a most satisfying job to help young people to become the best that they can be. When I become old, I would like to look back with a great sense of satisfaction that thousands of people have become better persons through my work.

I accept the idea that no one should make a choice of a job suddenly or quickly. He should decide what he wants to be in the long run. Then, he should decide how he works towards it. He should study the proper courses, read the books and speak to knowledgeable persons in that field before making a job choice. A good choice will most probably lead to a better life.

A．trained

B．praised

C．accepted

D．paid

【4】The writer wants to tell us that everyone should   _______.

A．become a knowledgeable person

B．join the army to become a better person

C．make preparations to find a satisfying job

D．help young people to choose an interesting job

【5】What is the best title for the passage?

24、

What can we do whenever Earth faces a disaster? Is the only solution running away from the planet in spaceships? The latest Chinese sci-fi movie, The Wondering Earth, offers a different and more ambitious（有雄心的）idea.

The film is based on a short story by Chinese sci-fi writer Liu Cixin. In the film, Earth is in danger of being destroyed by the dying sun. Humans around the world work together to build a giant engine system that will push Earth away from the sun. We're taking the Earth with us to run away.

What makes The Wandering Earth different from Hollywood-style space films? It's probably the special cultural background. For thousands of years, “homeland” has rooted in the hearts and minds of Chinese people. One old saying is luoyeguigen. It means returning to one’s homeland in old age, like fallen leaves returning to the roots of their tree. There are also many ancient poems about homeland. “The season called the White Dew begins tonight / Nowhere as in our native place is the moon so bright” (露从今夜白，月是故多明). These all show that Chinese people have the tight bond（情感纽带） with their homeland.

What is Chinese sci-fi? Guo Fan, the film’s director said: “Chinese sci-fi is a way to express our cultural and the spiritual core (精神内核). Otherwise, we’re just imitating（模仿）others and telling the same American stories.” And the film was released on February 5, 2019, the first day of Chinese New Year. It was a time when many people had just made the hard journey back to their hometowns. It seems the best time to tell this Chinese sci-fi story. Anyway, to us Chinese, Earth goes wherever humans go, because it's our home.

【1】Why do people consider the film so ambitious?

A．Humans work together to build a giant engine system.

B．Humans are trying to take the Earth to run away together

C．The film story is written by the famous writer Liu Cixin

D．People have managed to run away from Earth in spaceships

【2】Why does the writer use the old saying and ancient poems in this passage?

A．To tell the difference between Chinese and American.

B．To remind us of China's thousands of years of history.

C．To teach some Chinese traditional cultures and spirits.

D．To express Chinese people's love of their homeland.

【3】What makes The Wandering Earth different from Hollywood-style sci-fi?

A．Its fantastic pictures and settings.

B．Imitating foreign sci-fi films.

C．Its Chinese cultures and spirits.

D．Its creative and brave idea.

【4】What's the best title for the passage?

A．The Latest Chinese Sci-fi Film

B．What is Chinese Sci-fi?

C．Chinese Sci-fi Sets a New Path

D．Chinese Sci-fi VS Hollywood-style
