All of us go through some difficult times as we approach teenage years. It's the age when we have to deal with the most 36 in our life. This transition (过渡) from childhood to adulthood is 37 for some, but rough for others. The most important thing about being a teenager is 38 . When we are teenagers, we would get blamed or even punished for anything wrong we do. Unlike before when we were small kids, even if we made a big trouble, we didn’t need to pay anything for it.It’s all not so 39 about being a teenager though. We don’t have to have our 40 take us to somewhere we want to go or we couldn’t go before. We can have 41 with friends or eve n alone, which we couldn’t have because we were too 42 to know what pleasure is! It's a very enjoyable time of life. During this age, we are old enough to 43 what is good for us, and make decisions by ourselves without 44 others.But like the saying goes ‘‘All good things must come to an end, but all bad things can continue 45 .” During this period, we are having much 46 for our studies. If we don't pass, we won’t get jobs, and things will take a turn for the 47 . With the present world economy in _48 , we have to do really, really well in our 49 for a job. Adults say that their _50 is the hardest part of life. But I think the transition from a kid to an adult is much 51_ than being already an adult. What we do in our teenage years will 52 what we become and how we lead our life in the future.In conclusion, it is quite 53 that parents put much pressure on an already stressed out teenager. If they realized that, living condition for teenagers would be much better._54 for the teens ourselves we should get to know what is best for us. What's more, we should understand the right 55 of life we choose at this age can make ushappy for the rest of our existence.36. A. chances B. changes C. feelings D. expectations37.

四川省广安市2016高考英语阅读理解及书面表达选练(10)

四川省广安市2016高考英语阅读理解及书面表达选练(10)阅读下列四篇短文,从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
The term “underemployment” has three related meanings. In one sense, it refers to a situation in which someone with excellent job qualifications (资格) is working in a position that requires less qualifications, as for instance in the case of a lawyer driving a school bus. In the second sense, it means working part-time when one would prefer to be working full-time. In the third sense, it is a form of overstaffing (人浮于事) in which employees are not being fully made use of.All forms of underemployment have effect on the economy a nd the health of the business community. Long-term underemployment can also cover up the truth behind the employment situations. When nations collect employment statistics, they usually come up with a base number of “unemployed” individuals, using that number to judge the health of the job market. This number does not include part-time workers looking for full-time jobs, as they are considered employed, and it also doesn’t reflect workers who are underpaid, considering their qualifications.In the first sense, underemployment is a common problem in many of the developed world. Many people with college degrees are working in low-level or service industry jobs because the job market is full.The issue of part-time employment is also very serious. Some people are forced into part-time jobs, while others find themselves taking a part-time job because nothing else is available, even though they really need to work full-time. This problem is especially common in areas with seasonal employment, where employers find it cheaper to maintain and lay off part-time staffs, rather than keeping a full staff at all times.In the sense of shortage of workers, underemployment appears in a variety of situations. Some companies maintain a full staff to be prepared for seasonal work, or to keep well-trained, qualified workers so that they will be available when needed. Labor laws and union pressures may also prevent a company from cutting down on staff or working hours, leading to a situation in which people report to work, but have nothing to do.1. The purpose of the passage is .A. to show underemployment is becoming more serious todayB. to imply women are laid off more than menC. to explain the meaning of “underemployment”D. to tell the present economic situations2. According to the text, underemployment means .A. the same meaning as the word—unemployedB. employees are not fully taken charged ofC. qualified workers get a low salaryD. people who do manual work for wages3. When it comes to unemployment statistics, .A. the underpaid workers are includedB. it implies the people who are joblessC. the part-time employees are includedD. it shows the employment situation of a country4. Which of the following is NOT TRUE to the 4th and 5th paragraph?A. Underemployment only occurs in advanced countries.B. People with college degrees sometimes take a part-time job.C. Part-time staffs seems benefit from firms less.D. Companies need full-time staffs indeed.5. Some companies maintain a full staff .A. to compete with others in the futureB. to make preparations for seasonal workC. to get the skilled workers paidD. to obey labor laws and union pressures 【参考答案】1—5、CBBAB阅读理解。

Last July, my 12-year-old car died on California’s Santa Ana Freeway. It was an hour before sunset, and I was 25 miles from home. I couldn’t reach anyone to pick me up, so I decided to take a bus. Not knowing the routes, I figured I’d just head east.A bus pulled up, and I asked the driver how far she was going. “Four more lights,” she said. There was another bus I could take from there. This clearly was going to be a long night.She dropped me off at the end of her route and told me which bus to look for. After waiting 30 minutes, I began to think about a very expensive taxi ride home. Then a bus pulled up. There was no lighted number above its windshield(挡风玻璃). It was out of service. But the door opened, and I was surprised to find that it was the same driver.“I just can’t leave you here,” she said. “This isn’t the nicest place. I’ll give you a ride home.”“You’ll drive me home in the bus?” I asked, perplexed(困惑).“No, I’ll take you in my car,” she said.“It’s a long way,” I protested.“Come on, ” she said. “I have nothing else to do.”As we drove from the station in her car, she began telling me a story. A few days earlier, her brother had run out of gas. A good Samaritan picked him up, took him to a service station and then back to his car. “I’m just passing the favor along, ” she said.When I offered her money as a thank-you, she wouldn’t hear of it. “That wouldn’t m ake it a favor, ” she said. “Just do something nice for somebody.
