UNIT7CAREERSⅠ.【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。一项新的研究表明,与做梦的人进行双向交流是可能的。1.B细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Sleeperswouldrespondbymovingtheireyesortwitchingtheirfeetinacertainwaytoindicatetheiranswers.”可知,睡着的人会通过移动眼球给出答案。2.D细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Theresearcherswritethattheirfindingspresentnewopportunitiesforgainingreal-timeinformationaboutdreaming.”可知,研究人员获得了关于做梦的实时信息。3.D细节理解题。根据第一段“Researcherssayanewstudyshowstwo-waycommunicationispossiblewithpeoplewhoareasleepanddreaming.”可知,该研究主要研究与做梦者进行双向交流是否是可行的。4.B推理判断题。通读全文可知,研究表明,与做梦的人进行双向交流是可能的,作者只是客观陈述,并没有掺杂自己的观点,由此可见,作者对这一研究结果持客观态度。Ⅱ.【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。作者结合自身经历说明离职并不一定意味着与前公司和前老板断绝联系;对于好的公司和老板,离职后也可以保持联系,有时也可以是一个新领域的合作。1.G根据上一句“Buttheendofanemploymentrelationshipisnotnecessarilytheendoftherelationship—witheithertheleaderorthecompany.”可知,离职不一定意味着与公司和领导不再来往。G项“你可以离开你的公司,同时保持这段关系”与上句语义一致,符合语境。2.A上文“Atfirst,IwasconcernedImightlosemyrelationshipwithmynowformerboss,asItrulylikedhim.”提到,作者离职时担心会和领导断了联系,结合下文“Mybossenthusiasticallystayedintouchwithme”可知,作者起初的担心完全没有必要。A项“但事实证明,我没有理由担心”符合语境。3.C根据本段首句“Thatisn’ttosayitalwaysgoeslikethis.”可知,本段讲述与上文相反的情况,即离职后不再和老板保持联系。结合空前一句“Sometimesyourbosswasanightmareandyouwanttoendtherelationship.”可知,如果老板是个噩梦,离职时不再与老板联系是正常的。C项“不进一步接触是完全可以理解的”符合语境。4.F根据空前一句“Butforthegoodbossesandorganizations,theonesthatinvestedinyourtalentandcelebratedyourachievements,thingsaredifferent.”可知,本段与上文是转折关系,讲述从好公司离职后的情况;结合空后一句“Thebreakupcanbecomeabreakthrough.”可知,F项“雇佣关系的结束可以开启一个新领域的合作”符合语境。5.D根据空后一句“Especiallywhenyouhaveatrulydelightfulandrespectfulboss,youmayfeelguilt,sadness,orregret.”可知,D项“当你离开一份工作时,有复杂的情绪是很正常的”符合语境。D项中的“mixedemotions”呼应下一句中的“guilt,sadness,orregret”。Ⅲ.【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要围绕着患有语言和身体残疾的WesleyWee身残志不残的故事展开,旨在激励我们不畏难,不放弃,勇往直前。1.A根据下文的“duetothelanguagebarrierandinabilitytodressorfeedhimself”可知WesleyWee身体上有残疾,在运动功能方面有障碍,所以自己不能随意走动,只能被困在轮椅上。2.C根据上文“Heis1inawheelchairduetothelanguagebarrierandinabilitytodressorfeedhimself”可知WesleyWee身体上有残疾,不能自己动手吃饭穿衣,所以写书看起来也是不可能的。outofthequestion意为“不可能”。

3.B根据上文“thelanguagebarrierandinabilitytodressorfeedhimself”可知WesleyWee不能自己动手吃饭穿衣,所以是有身体残疾。4.D根据上文“duetothelanguagebarrierandinabilitytodressorfeedhimself,sowritingabookseemsoutofthe2”可知对于不能自己动手吃饭的WesleyWee来说,只能选择用脚趾打印书中的每一个字母。

5.A根据下文“Withmystory,Iwanttotellotherswithdisabilitynotto6hope.IfIhadgivenuphope,Iwouldn’tbeheretoday.”可知WesleyWee打算用自己的故事去激励和他有着相同命运的人,而要实现这一点只有等自己的书出版之后。

6.C根据下文“IfIhadgivenuphope,Iwouldn’tbeheretoday.”可知WesleyWee是想通过自己的故事告诉其他残疾人不要放弃希望。7.B根据下文“‘Yougoodfor8.Itisbetteryoudie.’Hisfatherforcedhimtodoaone-hour9everynight,inanattempttomakehimwalknormally.”可知WesleyWee的家人经常通过一些不好的言语表达对他的不满。

8.C根据下文“Itisbetteryoudie.”可知他的家人宁愿他死掉,是认为他没用,没有活着的必要。9.D根据“inanattempttomakehimwalknormally”可知应该是父亲想通过锻炼让他正常行走。10.C根据“heattemptedtotakehisownlifenotoncebutfourtimes”可知他曾企图四次通过自杀来结束自己的生命,由此可推断生活对他来说是难以为继的。11.A根据空后“hisgrandmotherlovedhim”以及上文“WesleyWeefaced7fromhisownfamilyw
