Unit 14 CareersYesterday I interviewed Lucy, a famous reporter.Lucy, now taking charge of“Hot News”， is always dynamic, flexible and full of wisdom. When asked the reason for her success, Lucy responded that being curious，working hard and believing in what was true were important.In her childhood, Lucy was curious about everything in the universe.She even turned over big stones to observe little insects there. With her mother's aid, she even set up her lab to become a chemist. Lucy was always committed to her study and overcame difficulties by herself due to her mother's influence. When she succeeded in solving a problem, her mother would reward her with a kiss. She always consulted her mother and never quarrelled with her.After graduation, Lucy became a reporter on TV.She liked her job, because she could help people grasp what was going on surrounding them. In addition, she could inspect and report illegal things. Sometimes, she was bothered by these things and felt panicked. But she knew as a reporter, she seldom got comfort and extra bonus.To our relief, her efforts finally paid off and she's won several awards in the USA. Lucy said a reporter must be serious, not make up any news, check his articles carefully to avoid any error and speak up representing common people. Now, we have entered the 21st century and it is a stage where the whole world is constantly changing. Lucy said she met with new challenges. And she said only by constant learning could she keep up with the changes. She needed to grasp new skills in case she fell behind the times one day. Through her recent survey, Lucy found jobs about information technology were multiplying and information companies were booming and operating well, while jobs in farming, heavy industry were decreasing rapidly.Her report reminded the government of taking measures to keep the balance.昨天我采访了一位著名的记者——露西。

Unit 14 CareersⅠ.阅读理解AUp to 45 rare species of Australian animals are in danger of becoming extinct within 20 years, scientists warned in a report. But hope is not lost! According to the report, the species can be saved if immediate action is taken to control their natural predators (天敌) and other threats.The threatened animals can be found in the faraway Kimberley region of northwestern Australia. The region is similar in square miles to California. Thirty percent of the endangered species are unique to the region, while others have already disappeared in other parts of Australia.Dr. Tara Martin, a research scientist said in the report, “A large extinction event is happening in Australia. The north has really been the last stronghold (主要栖息地) for many species of birds and mammals and reptiles. The Kimberley is really their last chance on earth.”Many of the species are under threat because they are hunted by wild cats. These cats kill around 500 000 native animals in the Kimberley region every day. The species face another threat, too. Their native habitat is also being destroyed by wildfires and by wild donkeys and goats that compete for food and water. Humans introduced cats, donkeys and goats to Australia to be farm animals or pets. However, their populations have exploded in the region because they have few natural predators.The report calls for $ 95 million to immediately start protection programs. The report also suggests reducing wild donkey and goat populations in the region, building fences, fighting wildfires and educating the community about how to help the endangered species. Richard Hobbs, an ecologist at the University of Western Australia, says the costs are worthwhile because the measures will not be too difficult to carry out.文章大意：本文是一篇调查报告。

Babysitting, dog walking and running a lemonade stand (柠檬汁小摊位) are all popular jobs for kids. But did you know that the last one may be illegal?Recently, the state of Utah in America officially made itlegal for kids to open lemonade stands or run the occasionalbusiness. You wouldn't think such a law would be necessary, butin most states, the harmless business pursuits (追求) of kidscan get shut down. In 2011, Georgia police officers shut downa lemonade stand run by three little girls because they didn't have a business permit to sell food. Last year, two teens were threatened with fines from New Jersey officials because they hadn't got a permit before they went doortodoor offering to clean snow after a storm.David Roland, cofounder of the Freedom Center of Missouri, recently represented two girls in Missouri who were banned from selling cookies out of their driveway. According to David, media attention usually helps government officials see the light and let these kids get back to business. But one problem still remains: laws requiring permits and licenses that are aimed at adults are increasingly being used to shut kids down. Worse still, officials often receive complaints (投诉) from neighbors.So what can kids do to stay on the right side of the law with business ventures (冒险)? The best way is to call the local city or town office and ask if there are any regulations in place that would prevent kids from running a lemonade stand. That should give kids an idea about whether the local government is willing to work with kids to protect these occasional businesses.语篇解读：本文是说明兼议论文。

After 5.graduating (graduate) from university, she became a reporter for a local newspaper. She wrote a report about 6.an illegal business. Her report helped the people who had been affected and it also helped the government inspect the company and catch the 7.guilty (guilt) people. 8.Writing (write) that report wasn't easy and it paid off because she won an award for the report.

Shaquille O'Neal earned D|S27.7 million in one season playing with the Miami Heat. That's D|S337,804 for each regular season game. However, in the WNBA (Women's National Basketball Association), the top players only earn about D|S79,500 for the entire season. There's always been a gap between men and women in sports.Laila Ali, the daughter of the famous boxer Mohammed Ali, is someone helping women athletes get the appreciation they deserve. She became a boxing champion like her father. She has won fifteen of her eighteen victories by knockout (击倒) and gained a lot of attention for women's boxing. Boxing, of course, is not the only sport in which female athletes break through the gender barrier(性别障碍)．And one sport in which female athletes are currently respectedis tennis, but this was not always the case. In the 1960s, BillieJean King was the best female tennis player in the world, and sheworked hard to improve conditions for women in tennis. For example, she wanted them to make as much money as men. She became the first female athlete to earn over D|S100,000 in prize money in a single year. Still, King was not respected by some men.In 1973, male tennis player Bobby Riggs declared that women could not be equal to men. He challenged King in a tennis match to decide who was better. This “Battle of the Sexes” had the largest television audience ever for a tennis match. At the time, Riggs was fifty years old, and King was just thirty. King kept long volleys to make Riggs grow tired, and she defeated Riggs in three straight sets. She later said, “It helped a lot of people realize that everyone can have skills, whether you are a man or woman ... as well as helpin g men and women understand each other. ”There will always be great female athletes. Through their accomplishments, maybe professional sports will someday be equal for both genders.语篇解读：本文首先指出女性在职业运动中不如男性受重视，然后以两位女性运动员为例，指出女性运动员正为此做出努力。

Unit 14 CareersⅠ阅读理解ASome years ago, writing in my diary used to be a usual activity. I would return from school and spend the expected half hour recording the day's events, feelings, and impressions in my little blue diary. I did not really need to express my emotions by way of words, but I gained a certain satisfaction from seeing my experiences forever recorded on paper. After all, isn't accumulating memories a way of preserving the past?When I was thirteen years old, I went on a long journey on foot in a great valley, well equipped with pens, a diary, and a camera. During the trip, I was busy recording every incident, name and place I came across. I felt proud to be spending my time productively, dutifully preserving for future generations a detailed description of my travels. On my last night there, I wandered out of my tent, diary in hand. The sky was clear and lit by the glare of the moon, and the walls of the valley looked threatening behind their screen of shadows. I automatically took out my pen...At that point, I understood that nothing I wrote could ever match or replace the few seconds I allowed myself to experience the dramatic beauty of the valley. All I remembered of the previous few days were the dull characterizations I had set down in my diary.Now, I only write in my diary when I need to write down a special thought or feeling.I still love to record ideas and quotations that strike me in books, or observations that are particularly meaningful. I take pictures, but not very often only of objects I find really beautiful. I'm no longer blindly satisfied with having something to remember when I grow old. I realize that life will simply pass me by if I stay behind the camera, busy preserving the present so as to live it in the future.I don't want to wake up one day and have nothing but a pile of pictures and notes. Maybe I won't have as many exact representations of people and places; maybe I'll forget certain facts, but at least the experiences will always remain inside me. I don't live to make memories--I just live, and the memories form themselves.1.Before the age of thirteen, the author regarded keeping a diary as a way of ________.A.observing her school routineB.expressing her satisfactionC.impressing her classmatesD.preserving her history2.What caused a change in the author's understanding of keeping a diary?A.A dull night on the journey.B.The beauty of the great valley.C.A striking quotation from a book.D.Her concerns for future generations.3.What does the author put in her diary now?A.Notes and beautiful pictures.B.Special thoughts and feelings.C.Detailed accounts of daily activities.D.Descriptions of unforgettable events.4.The author comes to realize that to live a meaningful life is ________.A.to experience itB.to live the present in the futureC.to make memoriesD.to give accurate representations of it【文章大意】作者曾经把写日记看作保留过去的一种方式，一次山谷旅行的经历让作者对日记的理解发生了变化，现在作者认识到过有意义的生活就是体验生活，而不是记录生活。

Apparently instructors are in short supply in sunny L. A. , where there are 13 jobs at vocational schools for every applicant on the market. This is a great opportunity for skilled retirees since, unlike teaching at a public school that requires a state certificate, the only requirement here is that you be a seasoned expert in your field.Encore Career: Business ConsultantRetire in: Miami, FLConsulting is a great option for a retired business professional looking to make their own hours, be their own boss, and earn as much or as little as needed to maintain their standard of living. For every consultant in Miami right now there are13 businesses hoping to hire them. There’s even greater demand here than in WashingtonD. C. , which is typically considered the consulting capital of the world.Encore Career: Tourist WranglerRetire in: Austin, TXAs the economy continues to boom and more Americans have extra income to spend, the tourism industry has taken off. This is particularly true in Austin, TX, where there were astonishing 36 tourism jobs for every applicant in July. Between four-star hotels, the noisy rock n’ roll scene, and a new food culture, Austin is the place to be if you want to work in service industry.Encore Career: Supporter of the ArtsRetire in: Charleston, SCIf you’re a Baby Boomer with a degree in the arts, now could be the perfect time to revisit your passion for creativity, especially if you also want to live in the center of southern charm. Between the 14 art galleries on King Street in Old Town, an abundance of acting companies a nd theaters, and music festivals, it’s not surprising there were 25 jobs for every arty applicant in Charleston.【文章大意】本文是一篇应用文。

With a group of famous judges and a wide range of talents, it is clear that the competitive atmosphere of American Idol will remain unrivaled by any other show. After all, its success has been ＂unmatched in broadcasting history.＂American Idol came from the British series Pop Idol. Through an application, contestants came into the competition and thereafter, were chosen to audition(试音)for the show.

As the famous producer Simon Cowell once said, ＂The point of the show is not to be mean to loser, but to find a winner.＂ As the final season of the program begins, past winners will return to the stage to say goodbye and a new winner will be announced. With amazing performances and an excellent cast of singers, the show’s conclusion will leave audiences nostalgic(怀旧的), but more satisfied than ever.1.
