26、   Recently I spoke to some of my students about what they wanted to do after they graduated, and what kind of job prospects they thought they had.

Given that I teach students who are trained to be doctors, I was surprised to find that most students thought that they would not be able to get the jobs they wanted without “outside help”.“What kind of help is that?” I asked, expecting them to tell me that they would need a relative or family friend to help them out.

“Surgery (整形手术)”, one replied.I was pretty alarmed by that response.It seems that the graduates of today are increasingly willing to go under the knife to get ahead of others when it comes to getting a job.One girl told me that she was considering surgery to increase her height.“They break your legs, put in special extending screws, and slowly expand the gap between the two ends of the bone as it regrows.You can get at least 5 cm taller!”

At that point, I was shocked.I am short.I can’t deny that, but I don’t think I would put myself through months of pain just to be a few centimeters taller.I don’t even bother to wear shoes with thick soles, as I’m not trying to hide the fact that I am just not tall!

It seems to me that there is a trend toward wanting “perfection”, and that is an ideal that just does not exist in reality.

No one is born perfect, yet magazines, TV shows and movies present images of thin, tall, beautiful people as being the norm（标准）.Advertisements for slimming aids, beauty treatments and cosmetic surgery clinics fill the pages of newspapers, further creating an idea that “perfection” is a requirement, and that it must be purchased, no matter what the cost.In my opinion, skills, rather than appearance, should determine how successful a person is in his chosen career.

【1】We can know from the passage that the author works as ________.

A.a doctor B.a model C.a teacher D.a reporter

【2】Many graduates today turn to cosmetic surgery to ________.

A.marry a better man/woman B.become a model

C.get an advantage over others in job-hunting D.attract more admirers

【3】What was the author’s reaction towards the girl’s decision?

A.Excited. B.Surprised. C.Happy. D.Angry.

【4】According to the passage, the author believes that ________.

A.everyone should pursue perfection, whatever the cost

B.it’s right for graduates to ask for others to help them out in hunting for jobs

C.media are to blame for misleading young people in their seeking for surgery

D.it is one’s appearance instead of skills that really matters in one’s career

27、On Aug 7, Xu Shixiao and her partner, Sun Mengya, won gold in the first women’s canoe(划艇) double 500m event at the Tokyo Games. It was also the first Olympic gold medal for China in the event.

Yet Xu’s journey to the Olympics was bumpy—she faced lots of difficulties.

In 2013, the news that women’s canoeing was still not an Olympic event dealt her a heavy blow. At that time, Xu’s coach suggested her either changing to another sport or retiring(退役).

It was impossible for her to change the sport at age 21. Xu gave up her career and found her first job as a saleswoman. The next year, she was promoted as a human resources manager.

When Xu went to work as usual in a company in Nanchang, Jiangxi Province, five years ago, she was surprised to get a call from her former coach, asking about her willingness to return to canoeing and compete in the Tokyo Olympic Games. Xu quickly made her decision.

“I quit(辞职) my job, told my family about it and went back to training three days later. There was not much time left for me to prepare for the Olympics,” Xu recalls. “I never thought that one day I could go back to the sport. Now that I have started again, I will do my best.”

To catch the opportunity to go back to canoeing on the international level, Xu started her training—“as cruel as hell”. She began her daily exercises early morning and ended at 10:30 p.m. Every day, she would set several detailed goals for her training. “Only when I reached all my daily goals. I would go ashore,” Xu says.

The more than two months of grueling(艰辛的) training finally paid off. Xu won two gold medals at the 13th National Games in two women’s canoe events, which meant she would be part of the national team to compete in the Tokyo Olympics.

【1】What does the underlined word “bumpy” in paragraph 2 probably mean?

A．Rough.

B．Smooth.

C．Positive.

D．Normal.

【2】What did Xu do after her retirement?

A．She started up a business.

B．She changed to another sport.

C．She worked in a company.

D．She got promoted in her thirties.

【3】What does paragraph 7 mainly talk about?

A．Xu’s final goal.

B．Xu’s hard training.

C．The benefits of canoeing.

D．The best time to exercise.

【4】What message does the author want to convey in the text?

A．Stay true to yourself.

B．Practice makes perfect.

C．Never too old to learn.

D．Your effort pays off.

28、Every experience makes us grow — nowhere is this more true than at North Country School (NCS). The NCS experience includes both classroom and experiential learning. Their courses help every child unlock their hidden potential and passions.

NCS was eye-opening for Sam Shi. He discovered his passion for biology as he learned about the wildlife and ecosystems (生态系统) within the Adirondacks. “The hands-on, placed-based teaching styles were extremely interesting,” he says. “A whole new type of appreciation occurs when you learn about living things while actually being surrounded by it.”

NCS students grow and learn effectively thanks to the direct experience they get. Led by talented teachers, they aren’t just learning by doing — they’re knowing by doing.

Shi got a taste of this as early as his first day in the Design and Build class with Larry Robjent. “No NCS class works like your standard, textbook classes,” he says. “Larry laid out our year-long project of deconstructing an on-campus bridge and plans to build a new one. A year-long project, where we actually got to work outside, with our hands, and build something practical. No chance you’d find that anywhere else.”

Shi described everything about that class as “special”. He got to be creative. Most importantly, he studied physics and engineering in practical ways. “At the end I got to stand alongside my classmates and admire the product of our efforts, something that would remain a piece of NCS for many years to come,” he shares.

Such breakthroughs happen daily at NCS. “The journey of discovering how to trust my abilities is a life lesson that has remained with me and likely always will,” says Shi. “The teachers always encouraged me to try new things and to trust myself.”

With such courses, it is no wonder NCS students gain confidence, creativity and knowledge. As Shi says, “I had no idea how cool this place would be, and certainly didn’t expect my study there to impact my life as obviously as it did and continues to do.”

【1】What are courses like at North Country School according to the passage?

A．They only focus on experiential learning.

B．They can help inspire students’ personal growth.

C．They are mainly for gifted students.

D．They attract many talented teachers.

【2】What does the underlined word mean in the fourth paragraph?

A．Repairing.

B．Creating.

C．Taking apart.

D．Blowing up.

【3】According to Shi, what is the life lesson he has learned from NCS experience?

A．A passion for biology.

B．A knowledge of building a bridge.

C．A curiosity about new things.

D．A sense of self-confidence.

【4】What can we infer from Shi’s words in the last paragraph?

A．He feels gratitude to his school.

B．He wouldn’t have become what he is now without being educated at NCS.

C．What he has learned at NCS will affect him all through his life.

D．The time he spent at NCS is worth remembering.
