25、   Kids go to school to learn plenty of subjects. Finally, education prepares kids to have a meaningful career (职业) in a field they enjoy. So thinking and learning about career choices before high school is always a good idea. But when should kids begin career education?

When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up? A teacher? A doctor? Or a baseball player? Preschool-aged children naturally think about their future careers. By imagining, exploring and role-playing, kids are likely to choose careers that interest them. Encouraging this career role playing is healthy and can be quite telling; kids often clearly prefer either left-brained or right-brained roles.

At some point beyond the role-playing stage, students should be shown to a more serious career education curriculum (课程). You may think that career education isn’t all that necessary until kids finish high school, because that’s when they’re usually expected to get a job or choose a course of study in college. Experts(专家) disagree.

“The influence of early involvement can have a hugely good effect on wider academic (学术的) achievements, helping both children and their families to see a future which is achievable,” writes Robert Halfon, chair of the Education Select Committee in the UK.

Many experts accept the idea that career education should begin at a young age. They suggest career education in school should progress as follows:

Kids in primary school should learn about why people work.

Kids in early middle school should learn about the importance of a career in earning money.

Kids in grades seven through ten should begin to discuss and think about different jobs.

Kids in grades ten and beyond should discover their strengths and interests, recognize suitable careers, and become involved in specific activities to help them understand what they need to work on to do their dream career.

Starting career education early prepares students for the real world by making the connection between what they’re learning in school and why they’re learning it. For example, if a child wants to build tall buildings and knows that math skills are necessary in such a career, the child will be more likely to study, rather than hate, math.

Career education opens kids’ minds to all that is possible. And, at the end of the day, isn’t that what parents and teachers want for their kids and students?

【1】What can we learn from Paragraph 2?

A．Kids feel confident about choosing their careers.

B．It’s natural for kids to change their career choices.

C．Kids do career role-playing to develop their interests.

D．It’s normal for kids to think about their future careers.

【2】Experts suggest that career education in school should _________.

A．develop in different grades

B．promise kids academic success

C．help kids know their strengths first

D．provide kids with rich job experience

【3】What does the example of the child who wants to build tall buildings show?

A．Math skills are the most important in school education.

B．Career education can help children find out what they want to do.

C．Children who want to build tall buildings are usually good at math.

D．Career education makes children more willing to study for their future job

【4】The writer probably agrees that _________.

A．career education should begin earlier for kids

B．kids don’t need to worry about their future careers

C．kids should learn all subjects well for future careers

D．career education in middle school is not a must for kids

26、Have you ever watched a film with your friends and thought, “How wonderful!” or had a meal with your family and said, “That was the best!”?

Well, there may be a small secret about why you enjoyed it so much. Our experiences are stronger if we share them with someone. That means good experiences become better, and bad ones become worse. That’s according to a new study by Yale University.

Scientists did a small study on female college students. In the test they share chocolate with someone they thought was another participant(参与者). But in fact, it was a scientist. In each test, they got two pieces of chocolate. They ate one piece at the same time with the “participant” and another piece alone. The participants thought the chocolate was tastier and more enjoyable when they shared it with someone. Even though both pieces of chocolate were from the same box.

Scientists then did another experiment, this time with bitter, unpleasant chocolate. Again, the participants thought the chocolate was bitterer than the piece they ate alone.

“When people think of shared experience, what usually comes to mind is being with friends or family.” said scientist Erica Boothby. We often don’t know how much people around influence(影响)our decisions, according to Erica.

However, it does show that sharing things with a friend may just make your good way a little brighter. Because the study only looked at female college students, it doesn’t mean the whole picture.

【1】According to the new study, ________ .

A．the best film is the one you watch with your friends

B．sharing secrets with your friends can make you happier

C．the most delicious meal is the one you have with your family

D．your experiences are stronger if you share them with others

【2】Which of the following statements is WRONG to the test?

A．The scientists also take part in the test.

B．The chocolate has two tastes each time.

C．The participants were female college students.

D．The chocolate is from the same box.

【3】We can learn from the last two paragraphs ________ .

A．Erica Boothby really likes eating chocolate

B．making more friends can make you luckier

C．boys don’t like to do things with their friends

D．friends or family play a role in our decisions

【4】Which is the best title for this passage?

A．Eating Chocolate Lets Us Be Happier

B．Sharing Things Makes a Difference

C．Watching a Movie Brings Us Luck

D．Doing a Study Is Really Interesting

27、Google and Toyota have worked together to create a new smart car. It can run on the road without a driver. It drives itself. The self-driving car hasn’t been on sale to the public, so we don’t know how much it costs. Another thing most people want to know is whether it will be safe enough to run on the road.

The self-driving car uses electricity as its power, and it can’t drive very quickly-the top speed would be 25 miles per hour. It is actually controlled by a computer system on the car. The system keeps on collecting information by some video cameras inside the car and a LIDAR sensor（激光雷达传感器）on top of it. A computer processes the information and decides what to do. “The self-driving car has only buttons for go and stop, so it’s very easy to use, ”an engineer of Google says. “And what’s more , it will make car accidents less and make the world a safer place.” The self-driving car has driven hundreds of thousands of miles in California, and it has only gotten into two accidents by human mistake.

According to CNN, self-driving cars will also help to reduce the number of cars in big cities. “Self-driving cars would be able to send you to the workplace and then pick up another person instead of stopping in a parking lot.”

【1】According to CNN, self-driving cars will ________.

A．send us more quickly to the workplace

B．lead to heavier traffic

C．improve traffic condition in big cities

D．carry more people than a normal car

【2】Which statement is not Right?

A．The self-driving car uses electricity as its power.

B．It will make car accidents less.

C．Toyota created a new smart car.

D．It’s not difficult to use.

【3】The underlined word “button” means “________” in Chinese?

A．遥控器

B．按钮

C．开关

D．设备
