2 . 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

“Hey, how are you doing, son?” My father smiled to me. “Not bad, dad, but I’ve decided not to go to university. I want to focus on my music career,” I replied. It would be a harmonious dinner if there was no argument interrupting us. As you know, my father insisted that I should be a teacher all the time because he was a professor while I would like to create a band in the rest of my life. My father got angry, raising his voice: “You can’t be serious. Why not being a teacher? You can help students and change their lives.” But I’m not interested in education at all. I just want to work in a studio, not a school. However, my dad thought that a band is not career, even not a job. If I were a lead singer of my band, I would be very happy. I will have new friends, new life, new environment and everything new. “It’s so boring to be a teacher for me, I can’t go to different countries, and I can’t wear popular clothes even!” I couldn’t control myself when I thought about it.

I know teachers are great. They set an example for me, giving me a lot of care and help when I was young. I have never denied this profession, but it is not my dream. Supposing that our human society intends to acquire long-term prosperity, it is advisable for us to do what we really love. Only in this way, can we work productively, efficiently and effectively.

第二节 书面表达(满分 25 分)
Dear Jack,

I’m glad to hear from you. I feel proud knowing you are interested in Tang poems.

As for my favorite poet, it must be Li Bai. Living in a golden age of Chinese poetry, Li Bai is best known for his rich imagination and striking imagery in his poetry, as well as for his great love for wine. Many of his poems will remain today. Li Bai is regarded as the greatest romantic poet of the Tang Dynasty.

What I appreciate most are his landscape poems, which are clear and natural in words with profound messages. They convey his strong love for nature, friends and the people.

Best wishes.

Yours sincerely,

Li Hua

4 . How to write a Cover Letter (求职信)

Are you tired of your job and in the market for a new one? Many people are these days, and that can be a problem for job hunters.     1     A well-designed cover letter is the answer.

The cover letter should be no more than one page in length. And it should explain why you are the best candidate for a job. The point of this letter is to help you stand out from the others.     2    .

Making a good impression in your cover letter means grabbing the reader’s attention right away. In your first paragraph, quickly introduce yourself and talk about the position you are applying for.     3     This illustrates to employers that you can do your research——a key part of cover letters.

    4     Each one should be tailored to the job you are applying for. So, before you start writing, find out some information about the job and the establishment. Then you’ll know what the company values and which skills and experiences your letter should focus on.

Following the opening paragraph, you can discuss the relevant experiences in your resume (简历).     5     Talking about your background and skills shouldn’t take more than a couple of paragraphs. From there, you can move to the closing of your letter.

It’s important to end on a strong note. In these last lines, you should repeat why you are a great fit. Then follow up with a polite request for an interview. This shows you are excited about the job and keen to it.

A．Someone would refer to their education experiences in this part.

B．A fine means is to tell why you fit the job and have a strong ending.

C．One of the best ways to do that is by making a good first impression.

D．You should show why you are interested in the job and the company.

E．No matter how many you write, every cover letter should be different.

F．How can you get the attention of employers with so much competition?

G．You can give in-depth details about why your skills fit the company’s needs.

9 . 【课文原文】

WORKING OUT WHAT YOU WANT TO DO

As an adult, one of the first questions you are asked when meeting someone new is, “What do you do?” This is because your career is a very important part of who you are. The career you have defines your life, and so taking time to think about it is an essential exercise for young people.

The best time to start thinking about possible careers is while you are still at school, before you make any choices about your further education. This, however, is not always easy. Some people know what they want to do from a young age, but many others just have a few ideas bouncing around in their heads.

One of the most effective ways to get some insight on a possible career path is to complete a “career aptitude test”. The results of the test will tell you about your strengths and interests, and some tests also suggest careers that you may be suited to. Having this information will provide you with a better chance of finding a job you like. There are many free tests online, so give one a try. Getting a head start in considering your future career may help you for the rest of your life. You don’t want to look back in years to come and say, “I wish I had thought more about what I really wanted to do.”

There are many different kinds of career aptitude tests. Some ask questions about your personal interests and attitudes. Others focus more on asking you to rate different kinds of work scenarios， like working as a librarian or a lawyer. Of course, while completing these sorts of tests, it is very important to be honest—and don’t worry—there are no right or wrong answers.

Career Aptitude Test example Page 1 of 10
How do you feel about the work tasks below?
1	○○○○○Assemble a chest of drawers
2	○○○○○Drive an ambulance
3	○○○○○Help develop a cure for breast cancer
4	○○○○○Analyse the elements hydrogen and radium
5	○○○○○Design a new range of wrist accessories
6	○○○○○Design clothes for brides and bridegrooms
7	○○○○○Teach children geometry
8	○○○○○Help and advise people in serious debt
9	○○○○○Manage a hair and nail shop
10	○○○○○Provide investment advice
11	○○○○○Check and edit education materials
12	○○○○○Categorise employee profiles

One popular test asks the participants to grade their preferences for a variety of work tasks. Their answers are then analysed and divided up between six different types of work personalities.The participant is then given a chart showing their score for each type of work personality. The top three scores are used to make a code that indicates the participant’s overall work personality. This code is then used to generate a list of career suggestions.

The career suggestions are also based on your education and experience level, but you can look at higher­level careers as well, which is very useful for high school students. For example，you could look at the basic careers to see what work you might like now，and then look at the more advanced careers so you know what you may like to aim for in the future. This is a great tool to help plan your career and let you know what targets you need to reach to get there.

In conclusion, career aptitude tests are clearly a very useful tool. However, it is important to remember that they are only meant for guidance.The secret to a good career is finding something that you are passionate about. So try a few tests online and start thinking about your future career right now!
