Every summer, a great many students travel to other countries looking for work and adventure. Most of the 1 are in seasonal work, mainly connected with tourism and2. The pay is usually poor, but most people work abroad for the3of travel. You can pick grapes in France, entertain kids on American summer camps, and, of course, there are 4 jobs in hotels and restaurants.
But it is not easy now to find work,“5 you speak the language of the country well, there will be very few openings,”says Anthea Ellis, an adviser on6 for students.“If you work with a family in Italy, you’ll have to speak Italian. When you wash dishes in a restaurant in Paris, the owner will expect you to speak7 . British students only have a language 8 for jobs in the USA and Australia.”
9 enjoys the experience. Sarah James was employed to help forty American children in Europe. The two teachers with the children had never been 10 . One child lost his passport; another became seriously ill and was 11 home; the whole group was thrown out of one hotel because of the12 they made, and Sarah herself was robbed on her only 13 evening of the entire trip.“I did visit a lot of new places,”she says,“but it wasn’t worth it. The pay was14 and it really was a 24-hour- a-day job. The kids never slept!”
“The trouble is, students expect to have a(n) 15 time of it,”Anthea Ellis points out. “16 , they see it as a holiday. In practice,17, you have to work hard. At the same time, all vacation work is casual (临时) work. You’ll have a job when the hotel, the restaurant, or the campsite is busy. 18 , you’ll work if it’s convenient for the company that employs you. But you have19 employment rights. As soon as the holiday season 20 , they’ll get rid of you.” 1. A. work B. luck C. chances D. services 2. A. agriculture B. industry C. hotels D. restaurants

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
As civilization proceeds in the direction of technology, it passes the point of supplying all the basic essentials of life—food, shelter, clothes and warmth. Then we are faced with a choice between using technology to provide and fulfill needs which have now been regarded as unnecessary or, on the other hand, using technology to reduce the number of hours of work which a man must do in order to earn a given standard of living. In other words, we either raise our standard of living above that necessary for comfort and happiness or we leave it at this level and work shorter hours.
I shall take it for granted that mankind has, by that time, chosen the latter alternative. Men will be working shorter and shorter hours in their paid employment. It follows that the housewife will also expect to be able to have more leisure in her life without lowering her standard of living. It also follows that human domestic servants will have completely ceased to exist. Yet the great majority of the housewives will wish to be relieved completely from the routine operations of the home such as scrubbing the floors or the bath of the cooker, or washing the clothes or washing up, or dusting or sweeping, or making beds.
By far the most logical step to relieve the housewife of routine is to provide a robot which can be trained to the requirements of a particular home and can be programmed to carry out half a dozen or more standard operation, when is switched by the housewife.
1. As civilization develops in the direction of technology, . A. the basic essentials of life must be supplied
B. it is important to supply the basic essentials of life

C. the choice of earning a standard of living
D. a choice between using technology to provide and fulfill needs to reduce the number of working hours
3. What alternative will mankind have chosen in future?
A. To leave our standard of living at this level and work shorter hours. B. To raise our standard of living.
C. To fulfill needs which have been regarded as unnecessary. D. To lower our standard of living and work shorter hours. 4. Now most housewives wish to . A. stop doing their housework
B. do more housework to improve their life
C. get rid of the heavy burden of their housework D. do only simple and light housework
5. It can be inferred that robots will be invented . A. to take the place of housewives B. to help manage a family

Unit 1 Great scientists
Ⅰ.单词拼写
1. scientific 2. examined 3. defeated 4. exposed 5. reject
Ⅱ.用括号内所给单词的适当形式填空 1. astonished 2. polluted 3. invited 4. parking
意为“预测”;
publish指以口头或印刷品的方式让群众知道,多指后者;announce除表示“宣布,宣告”之外,还可用于抽象
意义,意为“显示,预示”,主语为事物。故选B。 6. 解析:选B。用于说明书时,instruction表示“说明,操作指南”,常用复数。introduction介绍;explanation解释。
7. 解析:选A。B、C两项后不接句子。unless是从属连词,引导条件状语从句。
8. 解析:选D。devote oneself to(=be devoted to)献身于;stick to坚持;refer to提及;参考,均不符合句意。lead to导致,to为介词,该句为强调句型。
9. 解析:选D。句意为:不管我怎么努力读它,我就是不明白这个句子。make sense讲得通。 10. 解析:选B。句意为:你父亲喜欢打高尔夫球,他真的很热衷于它。enthusiastic热衷于,后面常接介词about。 Ⅴ.完形填空
1. 解析:选C。句意为:大多数的(工作)机会都在季节性的工作当中。D项有较大干扰性,空后的in决定了service不合文意。
2. 解析:选A。从下文的“You can pick grapes in France”可知答案。 3. 解析:选D。表示“报酬虽然低,但大多数学生是为了旅游的兴奋。” B项有一定干扰性。comfort意思是“舒适”,我们知道很多学生去国外是为寻求冒险(adventure)和刺激(excitement),而不是为了舒适。
4. 解析:选A。本空承接前面的分句而来,作者在前面说到在国外学生可以干许多工作,如在法国摘葡萄等,接着他应说,当然饭店、宾馆里也总能找到工作。
5. 解析:选B。表示“如果你说不好你去的那个国家的语言,那就很少有良机”。unless在此相当于if...not,其他答案不合文意。
6. 解析:选B。因为Anthea Ellis 在讨论学生假期在国外找工作的问题,因此说她是一个adviser on vacation work for students。
7. 解析:选C。Paris是法国的城市,结合前句可知答案。
8. 解析:选D。因为美国和澳大利亚人大都说英语,因此英国的学生在这两个地方有语言优势。
9. 解析:选C。从本段作者举的Sarah James这个例子来看,有些人并不喜欢在国外工作,然而从第一段我们知道,也有人喜欢,因此最佳答案为C。
10. 解析:选A。从上句我们知道Sarah James帮忙的这一团队来自美国,他们目前在欧洲,然而他们从来没有出过国。
11. 解析:选D。fly sb. home 意思是“让某人坐飞机回家”,其他答案不符合文意。 12. 解析:选C。表示“整个小组被赶出了宾馆,原因是他们太吵了”。D项有一定干扰性。从后文“The kids never slept!”我们得知,是这些孩子的吵闹,而不是他们的破坏使得宾馆把他们赶出去。 13. 解析:选B。从空前的only我们得知,Sarah James一直忙,(后来)只有一晚上有空。 14. 解析:选D。此空与第一段“The pay is usually poor”相对应。空后的“and it really was a 24-hour-a-day job”也有提示。
