What do you want to be when you grow up?
“When I grow up, I want to be...”
Almost all of us have thought about, or been asked to think about, our future careers. Our answers may differ greatly. Even now your aspirations(志向) may have changed from when you were in primary school.
However, it seems career options aren’t only based on personal taste. In a survey carried out by Teens, doctors, lawyers, and bankers were some of the most popular careers that people said they hoped to follow. This is in line with a similar survey carried out in the UK in May 2011 by job website monster. Co.uk, in which medicine was the top choice among UK teenagers aged between 13 and 17.
Medicine and law are two of the oldest and best known professions. Their prestige (威望) may come from the fact that doctors and lawyers are some of the most esteemed members of society, and they make good money. Joining these high-profile professions is often seen as a sign of upward social mobility.
It is equally unsurprising that banking is now one of the most common career choices. Youngsters worldwide think of banking and see the money rolling in. Wealth is increasingly becoming one of the most important indicators of a successful career. British young men list the UK tycoon Alan Sugar, Microsoft founder Bill Gates and Facebook chief Mark Zuckerberg as their top role models “for their wealth”. Just as Chinese teenagers see being a banker as a good and fun pathway to “wealth”.
However, not every child has the makings of doctor, lawyer, or banker. They are those who see fulfillment and happiness in other areas, and many teenagers dare to ink more individuality into their career options. As the Teens’ survey discovered, a variety of unconventional jobs---coffee shop owner, gourmet(美食家),waiter at a fast food restaurant---are among teenagers’ career choices. They can be equally interesting and rewarding jobs.
With every choice comes responsibility and challenge, and all career paths require specific education and training, you have to learn to balance optimism and confidence with being realistic about your particular talents and skills.
1.What is the passage mainly about?
A. Choosing a good job is very important.
B. The choice of career needs challenge.
C. Teenagers in the UK like doctors.
D. Careers in teenagers’ mind.
2.What is the top career choice among UK teenagers aged between 13 and 17 according to the article?
A. Medicine B. Law C. Bank D. Education
3.According to the article, all of the following are the benefits of being a doctor except_______.
A. respect from others B. the oldest profession C. high pay D. upward social mobility.
4.What do youngsters think is increasingly becoming one of the most important indicators of a successful career?
A. Prestige B. Fulfillment C. Happiness D. Wealth
5.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A. According to your particular talents and skills, you can choose your favorite career.
B. Specific education and training can help get a good job.
C. Whatever career you choose, you should balance optimism and confidence with being realistic about your particular talents and skills.
D. Responsibility is the most important when you choose a goodjob.

高三英语单项填空中等难度题查看答案及解析
When a dirty and untidy orange cat showed up in the prison yard,I was one of the first to go out there and pet it.I hadn’t touched a cat or a dog in over 20 years.I spent at least 20 minutes,knelt down behind the kitchen as the cat rolled around,relaxed.What he was expressing outwardly, I was feeling inwardly.It was an amazing bit of grace to feel him under my hand and note that I was reaching a life or another creature with something as simple as my care.
Over the next few days,there were other prisoners responding to the cat.Every yard period,a group of prisoners gathered there.They stood around talking and taking turns petting the cat.These were guys you wouldn’t usually find talking to each other.Several times I saw an officer in the group,not chasing people away, but just watching and seeming to enjoy along with the prisoners.Bowls of milk and water appeared along with bread, wisely placed under the edge of the dustbin to keep the birds from getting it.
The cat was obviously homeless and in pretty bad shape.People said that the cat came to the right place.He's getting treated like a king.This was true.but as I watched I was also thinking about what the cat was doing for us.There was a lot of talk about what's wrong with prisons in America.We need more programs.We need more psychologists or treatment of various kinds.Some may even talk about making prisons more kind.But I think what we really need is a chance to practise our own kindness.Not receive it,but give it.After more than two decades here,I know kindness is not a value that's encouraged.It's often seen as a weakness.
Instead,the culture encourages keeping your head down,minding your own business,and never letting yourself be weak.
The cat did my heart good to see the effect he had on me and the men here.By simply saying,”I need some help here”,he did something important for us.He needed us.And we needed to be needed.I believe we all do.
1.Which of the following statements is true?
A.The cat was dirty because it was kept in prison.
B.The officer in the prison enjoyed petting the cat.
C.The prisoners prepared food for both the cat and birds.
D.The author realized the importance of practising kindness.
2.We can infer from the third paragraph that______
A.showing love to others can make prisoners strong
B.the American prison culture will be improved
C.the author is not content with the prison culture
D.caring for others is encouraged in American prisons
3.What is the best title for the passage?
A.Caring Makes US Human. B.Prison Culture is Important.
C.Animals Need Care. D.Everyone Needs to be Cared for.
4.In Paragraph 2,the author mentioned that "Several times I saw an officer in the Group, not chasing people away, but just watching and seeming to enjoy along with the prisoners." to______ .
A.show us the officer and prisoners get along well with each other
B.show us the American prison culture does need improvement
C.show us the officer and prisoners all like cat
D.show us the American prison culture is great
