Section Introduction & Reading and Vocabulary-Comprehending 阅读理解AThere are many ways to find a job.It can be as easy as walking into a neighborhood store to look at its announcement board.Local stores often have areas where people can put small signs telling what kind of service they need or can provide.Such services include caring for children or cleaning houses.Or，job searchers can look in the newspaper.Local newspapers have employment announcements placed by companies seeking workers.Another popular tool for finding jobs is the Internet.For example，people in four hundred and fifty cities around the world can use the Craigslist Website to buy objects，meet people or find a job.Craigslist says that it receives two million new job listings each month.Another useful way to find a job is through a college or university.For example，students at the University of Texas in Austin can go to the Career Exploration Center to get help in finding a job.Of course，looking for a job requires knowing what kind of work you want to do.For example，there is a book called What Color Is Your Parachute(降落伞)？by Richard Bolles.This book has been helping people choose a career since it was first published in nineteen seventy.Some experts also help people find jobs.Susan WMiller owns a company called California Career Services in Los Angeles.She says her company helps people find jobs by first helping them understand their strengths，goals and interests.Then she provides them with methods and resources to help them find the right job.【解题导语】本文主要讲了找工作的一些方法。1What is the passage mainly about?AFinding a job.BCollege students part time jobs.CCraigslist Website.DThe relation between study and work.A解析：主旨大意题。本文主要讲了找工作的一些方法。所以选A。2By logging on the Craigslist Website，you can _Asell your old thingsBdo some shopping onlineCcreate your own announcement boardDget useful information about 450 citiesB解析：细节理解题。根据第二段第二句可知，登录Craigslist Website这个网站，人们可以买东西、交友或者找工作。故选B。3How many ways of finding a job are mentioned in the passage?AThree.BFour.CFive.DSix.C解析：细节理解题。第一段中提到两种找工作的方法，即到当地商店和看报纸；第二段提到上网找工作；第三段提到通过大学找工作；最后一段提到通过专家的帮助找工作。文章共提到五种找工作的方法。故选C。4Susan WMiller thinks it is the first step to _ when you want to get a job.Aget trainingBhave enough moneyChave a good backgroundDknow about yourselfD解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段的“She says her company helps people find jobs by first helping them understand their strengths，goals and interests.”可知，Susan WMiller认为，她们帮助人们找工作时，首先要让人们了解自己的长处、目标和兴趣。由此可知选D。B(2019黑龙江哈六中高二期中)Did you know that the color of uniforms can influence the performance of an athlete? It may sound strange，but a study suggests this might be true.Two British scientists studied the results of four sports in the 2004 Athens Olympic Games where the athletes had been given either a red or a blue uniform.They discovered that when there was a big difference in the score，color had no influence on the result.But if it was a close match，the athlete in a red uniform was more likely to win.Then they looked at the uniforms of the soccer teams at the Euro 2004 tournament.Again，teams wearing red won more games.The two scientists got their idea from earlier studies of wild animals.It had been discovered that when a male shows red scars(伤疤) on its body，it sends a signal of its power and strength.For example，in many kinds of monkey，the more the male shows off its red scars the more females it can attract.Based on this fact，the British scientists thought that the idea might work for humans，too.According to them，when an athlete sees a competitor in a red uniform，he gets a feeling that his competitor could be stronger than him.And_that_kind_of_feeling may have a bad influence on the players performance in the actual game.Although the idea is interesting，most people dont accept that color signals in the animal world can really be useful to humans in sports.They think that it is unreasonable to develop an idea based on such a small number of examples.Much more research has to be done to prove the influence of uniform colors on the performance of athletes.【解题导语】本文介绍了一种新的研究结论：在一场实力相近的比赛中，穿红色队服的运动员更容易获胜。但是人们对这个结论持怀疑态度。5What did the scientists find out about the 2004 Athens Olympic Games?AAthletes played equally well in four sports.BGame results had a big influence on the athletes.CAthletes dressed in red scored more in a close match.DThere was a big difference in red and blue teams scores.C解析：细节理解题。根据文章第二段倒数第三句“But if it was a close match，the athlete in a red uniform was more likely to win.”可知答案。6What may the red scars of a male animal suggest?AIt is a failure.BIt is quite strong.CIt has power over other males.DIt has attracted a lot of females.B解析：细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“It had been discovered that when a male shows red scars(伤疤) on its body，it sends a signal of its power and strength.”可知，红色的伤疤可能会表明这个雄性动物更强大。故选B。7The underlined part “that kind of feeling” in the text refers to a feeling of _AshameBprideCdangerDweaknessD解析：词义猜测题。根据画线部分后的“may have a bad influence on the players performance in the actual game”可知，能对运动员有不好影响的肯定是一种弱势感。故选D。8What is most peoples attitude towards the scientists
