21、When it came time for me to look at options for postgraduate study, I decided to go abroad, initially looking at options in both Australia and the United States.
I decided on Australia finally after I spoke with friends, who had experience of studying at the University of Melbourne and living in the city. The people I knew described to me as a place where there were lots of people from all walks of life and cultural backgrounds, and where everyone was open-minded and there were discussions happening everywhere. I’m happy to say that ended up being my experience as well.
I joined Lion, one of Australasia’s largest food and drink companies, as part of their graduate program, which was a fantastic opportunity, because it gave me the opportunity to work in a variety of roles, and gain experience across a variety of functions. But the thing with Lion was that they were already a very established business; they already had their processes and structures in place.
When the opportunity came for me to join Culture Amp, I realized it was an opportunity to see a business grow and be part of that evolution. It was just what I wanted. That comes with its own challenges, as new problems appear you might be solving them from the very beginning, rather than having a framework to fall back on, but it also means there’s room to learn and experiment. It made me realize where my interests lie. Here in Australia, there’s a really high tolerance for change in your careers. I think it’s really easy for graduates to feel like they have to “jump” into a role, and then that’s it, forever. But the truth is, your career is a marathon. You can expect to change courses along the way, and allow your interests to open new doors.
【1】Why did the author choose to study in Australia?
A．Her friends lived there.
B．She decided to work there.
C．She liked the culture there.
D．She wanted to meet new people.
【2】Which can best describe the author’s work in Lion?
A．Facing various opportunities.
B．Lacking challenges.
C．Demanding new structures.
D．Offering limited roles.
【3】What did the author want to get from Culture Amp?
A．Learning how to do experiments.
B．Having a framework to turn to.
C．Dealing with problems in wise ways.
D．Experiencing a company’s development.
【4】What is the author’s attitude towards changing jobs?
A．Uncertain.
B．Objective.
C．Supportive.
D．Contradictory.
22、 For the last two decades I've taught hundreds of people how to write their personal histories. Too often I discover that a writer's memory of an experience is far more vivid and exciting than it appears on the written page. 【1】 If this strikes a chord with you, here are a few techniques I teach my students.
Write for your readers.
Whom are you writing for? 【2】 What do they need to know to understand how your life has been different than theirs? Let your readers see you in your day, in your setting, in your world. They'll know you better if they get a chance to walk in your shoes.
Be personal.
【3】 They may think they've created a personal account of their lives when they've actually written something that reads like, “I did this, then this, and then this...”. For example, if you write about having the lead in your college play, share what motivates you to try out for the part, how you felt when you were chosen, what affect that experience had on you, and more. 【4】 If it is just an impersonal chain of life events, nobody will like it.
Include plenty of details.
【5】 Say you're writing a story about getting married. Help your readers visualize that experience. Where were you? Were there any sounds in the background? Music playing? What were you and he/she wearing? What was said? Briefly re-create the conversation as you recall it.
A．Describe the setting with a few details.
B．Something gets lost in the telling.
C．Keep them in mind before you start writing.
D．Make sure your readers see the inner you.
E．People always have trouble finding the right words.
F．Some folks tell what they did but not who they were.
G．Details help readers relive those moments together with the writer.
23、A student named Bruce sent me an email. He said, “My parents promised me a trip to California Disneyland if I get good grades in the final exams. 【1】. Why do adults connect everything with school grades?”
The following are my tips about his problem:
I understand your problem, and this must be frustrating to hear. Studies are important in a young person’s life. 【2】. However, too much stress could have a negative influence on your mood and even how you perform at school.
For the time being, it is best to have a positive attitude. 【3】. However, if you feel that your parents are putting you under too much pressure, then be honest and tell them how you feel. This way in the future when you have more exams, they will be less likely to put you in such an awkward situation, in which your results directly determine how they treat you.
【4】 if you explain to them your annoyance and how the added stress will be counter-productive (产生反效果的) for your exam performance.
It may be a long time since your parents were at school so they may find it difficult to understand your situation. I remember the days when I endlessly studied for exams, worrying before the big day came. 【5】, instead of worrying about the future consequences of any result. As a general rule for exams, try to make sure you have a schedule that allows you time to relax. I found this incredibly useful in helping me keep focused.
Be honest with your parents. At the end of the day, you are still fortunate enough that you have the chance of a trip after the exams are over.
A．But if I don’t, they will cancel the trip
B．Don’t expect much from them
C．I always found it best to focus on the task at hand
D．Your parents want to reward you for your hard work
E．I feel full of confidence and so open to possibilities
F．They may think differently about how they offer motivation
G．Try and let this potential reward motivate you if you can
24、After orbiting Earth for six months, the three crew members of China’s Shenzhou XIII mission have departed (离开) from the Tiangong space station and returned to the mother planet on Saturday morning, finishing the nation’s longest manned spaceflight.
The reentry capsule (返回舱) touched down on the Dongfeng Landing Site in the Gobi Desert at 9: 57 am. Carrying the mission crew (机组人员) , the Shenzhou XIII spacecraft undocked from the Tiangong station at 12: 44 am. It circled the Earth several times to gradually approach the mother planet.
In the last hours of their stay inside the Tiangong, the astronauts worked with ground controllers to transmit some experimental data back to Earth and sort out materials. Zhai Zhigang and his crewmates spent 183 days in an orbit about 400 kilometers above the Earth since their Shenzhou XIII spacecraft was launched on Oct 16. And they were the second inhabitants (居民) of China’s lasting space station named Tiangong. The crew has set a new record for China’s longest spaceflight, almost doubling the previous record of 92 days created by the crew in the Shenzhou XII mission.
During the Shenzhou XIII mission, the astronauts carried out two spacewalks that totaled more than 12 hours. The crew members also carried out two science lectures from the space station for Chinese students. In those lectures, which were live streamed worldwide by China Media Group, the astronauts showed viewers how they live and work inside the space station and the physical phenomena. In one experiment, Wang Yaping used a Bing Dwen Dwen toy, the popular mascot of the Beijing 2022 Olympic Winter Games, to show how objects fly in weightless environment.
Such lectures were based on the country’s manned spaceflights and presented by the astronauts. Featuring interactive teaching, the activitities were mainly targeted at youngsters as the students on the ground were able to communicate with the three astronauts in real time during the class. The agency said the Shenzhou XIII’s space-based lessons marked the start of the Tiangong Class series, China’s first extraterrestrial (地球外的) lecture series that aims to popularize space science and inspire youngsters to pursue their “science and space dreams”.
