Several years ago, most young Britons wanted a career in law, to be a doctor, or , if they were creative enough, to take up singing. But today, things stand differently.
According to a survey by Tesco Mobile, a UK telecoms company, the “dream job” of young people aged between 16 and 25 in the UK is a video blogger, or “vlogger”. The survey, carried out among 1,002 people, found that as much as 40 percent of them put vlogger as their number one choice on a list of ideal careers. The single factor contributing to this change is undoubtedly the internet and social media. They have made it so much easier to reach a global audience, without having to enter a career in show business in the traditional way.
“In years that have gone by, the biggest stars were recommended and trained by the Hollywood studios; now, anyone with a computer camera can become an idol,” a Tesco Mobile spokesperson said in a news release. “From fashion to comedy, these self-made stars document their hobbies to an adoring fan-base. Vloggers are the big stars of today because they are normal people interacting with their fans about everyday life.”
However, what people see is only the bright side of being a vlogger and they ignore the fact that only those who are successful gain fame and fortune. For every success there are a hundred others who never get off the starting block. There are the dreams that come true and the dreams that are destined to remain dreams.This is why despite the popularity of vloggers, some young people chose to follow careers that don’t necessarily earn them fame, but allow them to make good use of the internet to share their hobbies.
Young Israeli David Leshaw, for example, runs a business called the Finishers Club. It’s an online platform for runners to keep a record of their races. He told the career website Zippia that his job allows him to express his passion, and is always a learning experience. And that’s enough for him.
1.Why do so many young Britons choose to be vloggers?
A. Because being vloggers is an ideal career.
B. Because vloggers can become idols easily.
C. Because being vloggers is popular nowadays.
D. Because vloggers are bound to be rich and famous
2.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Most vloggers can achieve their dreams
B. One should realize the dreams one by one.
C. Vloggers who are successful can gain fame and fortune
D. Not all the vloggers have accomplished the dreams
3.The example of Israeli David Leshaw in the last paragraph serves to .
A. call on young people not to be vloggers B. explain the popularity of vloggers
C. help readers take a correct attitude D. state the advantages of his career
4.What is the author’s attitude toward being vloggers?
A. Objective B. Critical
C. Positive D. Negative

We live in a dangerous world. The figures for crime go up year by year. If you were attacked in the street, would you be able to defend yourself? Not very well probably, especially if someone was pointing a gun at you. We all see a lot of violence of films, but recently some programs on television showed how people can defend themselves without guns. For example, in one film a woman was attacked from behind. She threw the man, who was heavier and stronger than she was, over her head. Then she held him tightly on the ground. How? She knew Judo.
Jiu-jitsu, as judo is sometimes called, means "muscle science" in Japanese. The student of judo needs to learn a lot about the body, its bones and muscles. Judo uses a number of "falls", "holds" and "throws". Someone who does not know judo cannot defend himself against them. If you know judo you can defend yourself against a person who is stronger than you. You had better not practice judo on your friends unless they can fall without hurting themselves! Being strong is one thing, but using the body wisely is another. In judo, you use the other person's body to help you. You "throw" him to the ground and "hold" him there, so that he cannot move. Of course, it takes time and practice, but knowing judo is useful. In a violent world you ought to be able to defend yourself.
1.According to passage, in fact "judo" is ______.
A．the same as "Jiu-jitsu" B．a kind of fighting
C． a kind of muscle science D．is helpful to a strong man
2.Why does the writer say the world is dangerous?
A． The number of violence and crime is increasing every year.
B．Because many people carry guns.
C．Because there too many films.

3.Which of the following statement is true about the woman in the passage?
A．The woman held the man over her head.
B．The woman was heavier than the man.
C．The woman was able to defend herself.
D．The woman attacked the man from behind.
4.If a man knows judo, he ______.
A．will be good at muscle science.
B．will be able to avoid being attacked from his back.
C．may defeat any strong person.
D．can help himself by using the other person's body
5.What's the best title for this short passage?
