【题目】 Just ask any new parent: Adding a baby to a household can also add stress to a career. Now，a new study backs that up with some astonishing numbers: After science，technology，engineering，and mathematics（STEM）professionals become parents，43%of women and 23% of men switch fields，transition（转变）to part-time work，or leave the workforce entirely.
Many researchers and parents already knew that STEM can be unwelcoming to parents，particularly mothers. But“the considerable departure was astonishing，”says Erin Cech，an assistant professor of sociology at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor and lead author of the study，published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. For both genders，“the proportions were higher than we expected. ”
The surprisingly high reduction rate for men also highlights that“parenthood in STEM is not just a mothers'issue；it's a worker issue，”Cech says. She hopes that the findings“might motivate changes，"such as more paid parental leave from both government and employers and policies that better support flexible work time without a tight routine. “We are not suggesting that people who want families should avoid STEM；that's not the solution，”she emphasizes.
By 2018，78% of new fathers were still working in STEM，the vast majority full time. For new mothers，68% were still in STEM，but only 57% worked full time. For professionals without children，on the other hand，84% of men and 76% of women were predicted to still be working in STEM full time in 2018. For the new parents across all fields，16% of women were working part-time and 15% had left the workforce，as compared with just 2% and 3%，respectively，for men. These sharp differences make clear that，even though the reduction rate for fathers is higher than expected，mothers still face particular career challenges.
【1】What makes many STEM employees change their jobs?
A. Worrying about their family.B. The attraction of part-time jobs.
C. Being tired of the former jobs.D. The heavy burden at home and work.
【2】Which statement may Erin Cech agree with?
A. Working at home may be a popular choice.
B. Increasing welfare may keep STEM parents.
C. People with families should leave STEM.
D. STEM professionals should obey the rules.
【3】How many new mothers among the labor force worked full time in 2018?
A. 69%.B. 76%
C. 57%.D. 31%.
【4】What does the author want to stress by listing the sharp differences?
A. Too many fathers leave STEM.B. It's hard for mothers to make a balance.
C. STEM jobs are no longer popular.D. It's impossible to have a successful career.

【题目】阅读下面短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。
An old proverb says, "Overcome evil by doing good." I read the news and see people who behead（将……斩首）others in the Middle East, abuse maids and domestic workers in Hong Kong, steal money and misuse power in government (not only in China but in the U.S. and every other part of the world), those who claim certain social ideals while privately practicing greed and living lifestyles that totally contradict their so-called 'ideals.' I only see the headlines and rarely read the stories. It is too depressing.
So, what do you do when there is so much evil in the world? What can YOU do about it?
There's only one thing that I know to do. I know (and feel it deep in my heart) to do good.
My way of overcoming evil in the world is too invest in the lives of Chinese children. I do this every day. I love 'giving back'. I love taking the money I earn and investing back into the lives of children. I will create a language learning lab in a public high school's international department (I already bought four new computers for it this week). The students need the tools to work on their English exams and prepare for TOEFL, IELTS and the SAT. There's no provision for them to have such a resource right now, so, rather than complain about it not being done, I decided, 'why don't I do something about it.' I know that I can and just decided to do it. It isn't anything great, but it will make a difference in the lives of some.

【题目】A supermarket checkout operator was praised for striking a blow for modern manners and a return to the age of politeness after refusing to serve a shopper who was talking on her mobile phone.
The supermarket manager was forced to apologize to the customer who complained she was told her goods would not be scanned unless she hung up her phone. Jo Clark, 46, said, “I don't know what she was playing at. I couldn’t believe how rude she was. When did she have the right to give me a lecture on checkout manners? I won’t be shopping there again!”
But users of social media sites and Internet forums(论坛) were very angry that store gave in and the public appeared to be supporting the angry checkout worker. “Perhaps this is a turning point for mobile phone users everywhere. When chatting, keep your eyes on people around you. That includes people trying to serve you, other road users and especially people behind you in the stairs,” said a typical post.
“It’s time checkout staff fought back against these people constantly chatting on their phones. They can drive anyone crazy. It’s rude and annoying. I often want to grab someone’s phone and throw it as far as I can, even though I am not a checkout girl, just a passer-by,” said another.
Siobhan Freegard, founder of parenting site www. Netmums.com said, “While this checkout operator doesn’t have the authority to order customers to switch off their phones, you can see clearly how frustrated and angry she felt. No matter how busy you are, life is nicer when you and those around you have good manners.”
【1】According to Jo Clark, the checkout operator_____________.
A. lacked the knowledge of checkout manners
B. played with a mobile phone while at work
C. had no right to forbid her from using her mobile phone
D. deserved praise for her modern manners
【2】The third and fourth paragraphs imply that the public_________.
A. are used to chatting on their mobile phones
B. are driven crazy by constant mobile calls
C. ignore the existence of mobile phone users
D. seem to support the checkout operator
【3】The attitude of Siobhan Freegard towards the checkout operator was________.
A. disapproving B. supportive
C. neutral(中立的) D. indifferent
【4】The passage is mainly about _________.
A. whether we should talk on our phones while being served
B. why we can talk on mobile phones while shopping
C. what good manners checkout operators should have
D. how we can develop good manners for mobile phone users

【题目】阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
注意：请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上。每个空格只填1个单词。
Interviewing someone for a job is not as easy as it looks. First, as the interviewer, you’re tasked with finding the person who will not only do the job well but also fit in well with the other employees.
You have to make an evaluation of abstract qualities that can’t be found on a résumé. Because you have to repeat the process for every potential employee, you end up asking question after question, applicant after applicant.
Still, interviewers need to be told something: “What is your biggest weakness?” is not a good question. It just isn’t.
Now, job seekers have to understand that interviewers want to find some way to know what makes an applicant different from others. Asking questions that are seemingly impossible to answer is one way to see who can think creatively. Then what may be a proper way to respond to such a question?
Honesty, with a twist（新手法）
“‘What are your three strengths and three weaknesses?’ is a classic, but not too many people know how to answer this,” says Kenneth C. Wisnefski, founder and CEO of WebiMax, an online marketing company.
“As an interviewer, we want to hear strengths that describe initiative（主动性）, motivation and dedication. The best way to respond is to include these qualities into specific ‘personal statements.’”
“Similarly, weaknesses should be positioned as a strength that can benefit the employer.”
“I like to hear applicants state an exaggerated strength, and put an interesting twist on it. An example of this is, ‘My initiative is so strong, that sometimes I take on too many projects at a time.’”
This answer leads with a strength that employers want — initiative — and still acknowledges that you’re not perfect.
Although you might consider this acknowledgement too honest, it works because it proves you’re being honest.
Honesty, with progress
When you consider what your weaknesses are, think about how you have attempted to overcome them. No one is perfect, so pretending that you are a perfectionist will come across as insincere.
Debra Davenport, author of “Career Shuffle,” believes citing(引用) examples are the best approach.
“My preferred response for this question is to tell the truth without damaging the applicant’s image.” Davenport explains.
“A better response might be, ‘I’ve had some challenges with work-life balance in the past and I realize that a life out of balance isn’t good for me, my family or my employer. I’ve taken the time to learn better time and project management, and I’m also committed to my overall wellness.’”
The answer adds some dimension to the question, and proves you’ve thought beyond the answer. You’ve actually changed your behavior to address the situation, even if you haven’t completely overcome the weakness.
Put yourself in the interviewer’s shoes
However you decide to answer, Debra Yergen, author of “Creating Job Security Resource Guide,” recommends job seekers imagine themselves sitting on the other side of the desk.
“If you were doing the hiring, what would you be looking for? What would be your motivation for asking certain questions? Who would you be trying to weed out? If you can empathize (共鸣) with the interviewer, you can better understand what they want and need, and then frame your qualifications to meet their needs for the position you seek.”
Once you consider what the goal of the question is and figure out what your honest answer is, you’ll be able to give the best possible answer to a tricky question.
Job Interviews | Details |
| ☆ Find the person both doing the job well and【1】along well with other employees. |
| ☆ Understand that the interviewers want to【4】between applicants and that asking a question seemingly impossible to answer is one way to see an applicant’s【5】. |
| ☆ With the goal of the question【10】into account and the honest answer in your mind, you will be able to give the best possible answer. |
