The Evolution of Professions and Technology
In the bustling 1.zone (n. 地区)of Silicon Valley, the 2.corporate (adj. 公司的)world is undergoing a transformation. 3.Salary (n. 薪水)packages are no longer the sole 4.criterion (n. 标准)for job satisfaction. People anticipate more from their careers, seeking 5.passion (n. 热情)and purpose. A 6.lawyer (n. 律师)，once 7.fond (adj. 喜爱的)of courtroom battles, might obtain satisfaction from pro bono work, fighting against 8.prejudice (n. 偏见)．
9．Leadership (n. 领导)in companies is not about being 10.prior (adj. 优先的)or 11.superior (adj. 占优势的)but about guiding teams. The 12.premier (adj. 最成功的)tech 13.institutes (n. 机构)are offering 14.relevant (adj. 相关的)courses that don't just 15.plug (v. 供给)students into jobs but prepare them as 16.qualified (adj. 能胜任的)17.candidates (n. 应试者)with a holistic image. 18.Weekly (adj. 每周的)and 19.monthly (adj. 每月的)reviews are now a norm, ensuring that the 20.budget (n. 预算)is on track, and any 21.loan (n. 贷款)taken is 22.genuinely (adv. 真正地)justified.
However, with the rise of technology, new professions emerge. 23.Detectives (n. 侦探)now use advanced software modes to 24.detect (v. 检测)cybercrimes. 25.Temporary (adj. 临时的)positions can lead to permanent ones if one can prove their value. The 26.duration (n. 期间)of tasks has reduced, thanks to the 27.application (n. 应用)of technology, but without any 28.delay (n. 耽搁)in quality.
In conclusion, as the world changes towards a more tech-driven 29.mode (n. 模式)，the essence of jobs remains the same. The future is bright, and every 30.madam (n. 女士)and sir has a vital role in it.

Four Summer Jobs to Get Paid and Take a Break
Camp counsellor (辅导员)
Most kids head off to camp during the summertime, and if you're past the typical age of being a camper, relive your youth by becoming a summer camp counsellor.You can enjoy participating in activities, planning events, and partaking in arts and crafts.It's one of the best summer jobs because it also builds your leadership skills while you earn extra money.Depending on your schedule, you can work to fit your needs.The average starting pay is $10.5 an hour.
Lifeguard
Spending time on the water is something many people do during the summer.And if you're good at swimming, then being a lifeguard is a great option for you.The hours are flexible, and the pay is great, with the average hourly rate at $11.50.
Amusement park employee
An amusement park is a great place to work during the summertime.There are a variety of positions you can get hired for—from ride operator to food service to booth tender—and the average starting pay is $10 an hour.The hours are flexible and negotiable depending on where you decide to work：the larger the park, the more employees they'll have, which could mean fewer hours they'll need you to cover.
Dog walker
If you're looking for a relaxing job, being a dog walker could be the right choice for you.Dog walking hours and pay are easily negotiable, as you can simply discuss with the dog's owner what your availability is, when they need you, and what your pay rate is.Getting some exercise with a furry friend will feel more like a relaxing pastime than a job.And if you wish to continue being a dog walker, it's the job that's easiest to keep year－round.

(2025·江浙高中发展共同体联考)
In my senior－year literature class last term, I encountered a knight who defended a forgotten kingdom, a gentle grandmother who healed wounds with folk tales, and a futuristic explorer who vanished in a black hole.Once, I often found myself amazed at how my students, who brought these figures to life, grasped the essence of complex literary themes.
But the situation was quite different with their first assignment, which centered on the question：“Why is literature important？”
Most of the essays were barely a page long, and scarcely any had a sentence that could serve as a strong thesis statement.I was taken aback.Then it dawned on me that the problem lay in the question itself.They could have written volumes about the allure of social media, but literature, in its pure form, just didn't seem significant to them.This had to change.
As a new semester began, I asked everyone to craft a reflective essay on a literary work that had touched their soul.This time, they found the task far more engaging.For the subsequent two tasks, a drama－analysis project was followed by a poetry－creation workshop.I only stipulated that each piece should convey a deep－seated emotion.The outcomes were astounding．The students delved into a wide range of literary works and produced essays and poems, each 8 to 15 pages long, with insights that broadened my perspective and stirred my emotions.
I entered the class believing that literature is important as a mirror of humanity.However, my students demonstrated something even more profound.When the final bell rang in June, I walked away with a year's worth of memories filled with the realization of literature's most profound significance—the ability to awaken dormant feelings, to transport us to unseen worlds, and to reveal the shared threads of our human experiences.

(2026·广东名校联盟摸底)
Power often boosts an employee's creativity because being powerful liberates the individual from restrictions.However, new research shows that employees who are not in positions of power can become more creative when given time to “warm up” to a task by engaging in the creative task more than once.
“This is important because when people with more power are able to express their creative ideas more than those with less power，it leads to a rich－get－richer dynamic that strengthens these power imbalances，” said Brian Lucas, assistant professor in the Cornell University.“Understanding ways to boost the creativity of lower power workers can help them find the right way to deal with this low－power disadvantage，” Lucas said.
Lucas and his colleagues conducted two studies to reach their conclusion.In the first study, they divided the creative idea generation session into two rounds consisting of a one－minute “warm up” followed by a second round in which the participants could take as long as they wanted.Participants were randomly assigned to a high－power condition or a low－power condition, and feelings of power were generated with a role manipulation (操纵)where participants were given a leadership role and control over resources (high power)or an employee role with no control over resources (low power)．The study found that high－power individuals were more creative than low－power individuals in the warm－up round.There was no difference, though, in creativity in the second round.
In the second study, the researchers gave them a different creative task and increased the number of rounds from two sessions to five, taking as long as they like to complete the task.Similar to the first study, the study found that high－power individuals were more creative than low－power individuals in the first round.But the creativity of low－power individuals caught up to the creativity of the high－power individuals after the first round.
“The low－power warm－up effect suggests a simple intervention that empowers all employees to tap their creative potential and overcomes power imbalances in the workplace：when pursuing creative work, let employees warm up first，” Lucas said.
[语篇解读]本文是一篇说明文。研究发现，给予“热身”时间后，职位低的员工的创造力可以得到提升。
1．Why does Lucas think it important to boost the creativity of lower power workers？(　D　)
A．It maintains power imbalances.
B．It motivates their ambition to catch up.
C．It creates a competitive work environment.
D．It encourages a workplace with more equality.
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段Lucas所说的话可知，了解如何提高低权力员工的创造力能帮助他们找到应对低权力劣势的正确方法，让他们产生更多创造性想法，从而促进工作场所更公平公正。故选D。
2．How did Lucas and his colleagues stimulate feelings of power in the participants？(　B　)
A．Through a creative task with time limits.
B.Through providing them with different positions.
C.Through a competition between leaders and employees.
D.Through assigning them to different conditions intentionally.
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中“Participants were randomly assigned to a high－power condition or a low－power condition… with no control over resources (low power)．”可知，参与者的权力感是通过给予不同角色(领导角色或无资源控制权的员工角色)产生的。故选B。
3．How did the second study differ from the first study？(　C　)
A．It had fewer rounds.
B．It involved more participants.
C．Participants had a changed task.
D．Participants' creativity gap became wider.

4．Which of the following is the best title for the text？(　C　)
A．Power tends to encourage creative ideas
B.Changing tasks boosts all the employees' creativity
C.Warm－up time corrects creativity power imbalances
D.Low－power individuals outperform the high－power ones
解析：标题判断题。根据第一段“However, new research shows that employees who are not in positions of power can become more creative when given time to ‘warm up’ to a task by engaging in the creative task more than once.”及全文内容可知，文章主要介绍研究发现“热身”时间能激发低权力员工的创造力，纠正创造能力的不均衡。故选C。

Artificial intelligence (AI)is no longer a science－fiction concept; it is rapidly integrating into the fabric of our workplaces.From automated customer service chatbots to algorithms (算法)that analyze vast amounts of data, AI is changing the way businesses operate.But what does this mean for the future of work
One of the most significant impacts of AI is the potential for job displacement.Routine tasks that are rule－based, such as data entry and some aspects of manufacturing, are at high risk of being automated.A study by McKinsey Global Institute predicts that by 2030, up to 375 million workers globally may need to switch occupational categories due to automation.This displacement is not limited to low－skilled jobs.Even some white－collar professions, like certain types of financial analysis, are vulnerable (易受影响的)as AI algorithms can process and analyze financial data more quickly and accurately than humans.
However, AI also has the potential to create new job opportunities.As AI systems become more widespread, there is a growing need for professionals who can develop, maintain, and improve these technologies.Jobs in AI research, machine learning engineering, and data science are on the rise.These new roles require a high－level of technical skills, often in fields like computer science, mathematics, and statistics.
The challenge lies in preparing the workforce for this shift.There is a need for reskilling and upskilling programs to help workers transition into new roles.Governments, educational institutions, and businesses must work together to provide accessible and relevant training.For instance, some companies are already offering in－house training programs to teach employees basic coding and data analysis skills.
In conclusion, AI is a double－edged sword for the future of work.While it poses a threat of job displacement, it also offers the promise of new and more fulfilling career paths.The key is to manage this transition effectively, ensuring that the benefits of AI are shared widely.
[语篇解读]本文是一篇议论文。文章讨论了人工智能(AI)如何迅速融入我们的工作场所，以及它对未来工作的双重影响：一方面可能导致工作岗位的替代，另一方面也将创造新的就业机会。
5．According to the McKinsey Global Institute's prediction, what might happen by 2030？(　D　)
A．AI will replace all human workers.
B．375 million workers will lose their jobs.
C.White－collar workers will be at full employment.
D.Numerous workers may need to change occupations.

6．What new job opportunities does AI bring？(　B　)
A．Jobs in traditional manufacturing.
B．Positions in AI－related technical fields.
C．Low－skilled customer service jobs.
D．Manual labor jobs in construction.
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段“As AI systems become more widespread, there is a growing need for professionals who can develop…and data science are on the rise.”可知，随着人工智能系统的普及，对相关技术专业人员的需求增加，人工智能研究、机器学习工程和数据科学领域的工作也在增加，即人工智能带来了人工智能相关技术领域的职位。故选B。
7．What is the key to dealing with the impact of AI on the future of work？(　B　)
A．Letting the market adjust naturally.
B．Effective management of the transition.
C．Workers finding new jobs on their own.
D．Banning AI development to protect jobs.
解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段“The key is to manage this transition effectively, ensuring that the benefits of AI are shared widely.”可知，应对人工智能对未来工作影响的关键是有效管理这一转型。故选B。
8．Which of the following would be the best title for the text？(　A　)
A．AI：transforming the future of work
B.AI：a threat to the future of workplace
C．Negative impact of AI on the job market
D．New job opportunities created by AI
解析：标题判断题。根据第一段和最后一段的内容可知，本文讨论了人工智能迅速融入工作场所及其对未来工作的双重影响，选项A“人工智能：改变未来工作”最能概括主题。故选A。

Four Summer Jobs to Get Paid and Take a Break Camp counsellor (辅导员)
Most kids head off to camp during the summertime, and if you're past the typical age of being a camper, relive your youth by becoming a summer camp counsellor.You can enjoy participating in activities, planning events, and partaking in arts and crafts.It's one of the best summer jobs because it also builds your leadership skills while you earn extra money.Depending on your schedule, you can work to fit your needs.The average starting pay is $10.5 an hour.
Lifeguard
Spending time on the water is something many people do during the summer.And if you're good at swimming, then being a lifeguard is a great option for you.The hours are flexible, and the pay is great, with the average hourly rate at $11.50.
Amusement park employee
An amusement park is a great place to work during the summertime.There are a variety of positions you can get hired for—from ride operator to food service to booth tender—and the average starting pay is $10 an hour.The hours are flexible and negotiable depending on where you decide to work：the larger the park, the more employees they'll have, which could mean fewer hours they'll need you to cover.
Dog walker
If you're looking for a relaxing job, being a dog walker could be the right choice for you.Dog walking hours and pay are easily negotiable, as you can simply discuss with the dog's owner what your availability is, when they need you, and what your pay rate is.Getting some exercise with a furry friend will feel more like a relaxing pastime than a job.And if you wish to continue being a dog walker, it's the job that's easiest to keep year-round.

(2025·江浙高中发展共同体联考)
In my senior-year literature class last term, I encountered a knight who defended a forgotten kingdom, a gentle grandmother who healed wounds with folk tales, and a futuristic explorer who vanished in a black hole.Once, I often found myself amazed at how my students, who brought these figures to life, grasped the essence of complex literary themes.
But the situation was quite different with their first assignment, which centered on the question：“Why is literature important？”
Most of the essays were barely a page long, and scarcely any had a sentence that could serve as a strong thesis statement.I was taken aback.Then it dawned on me that the problem lay in the question itself.They could have written volumes about the allure of social media, but literature, in its pure form, just didn't seem significant to them.This had to change.
As a new semester began, I asked everyone to craft a reflective essay on a literary work that had touched their soul.This time, they found the task far more engaging.For the subsequent two tasks, a drama-analysis project was followed by a poetry-creation workshop.I only stipulated that each piece should convey a deep-seated emotion.The outcomes were astounding．The students delved into a wide range of literary works and produced essays and poems, each 8 to 15 pages long, with insights that broadened my perspective and stirred my emotions.
I entered the class believing that literature is important as a mirror of humanity.However, my students demonstrated something even more profound.When the final bell rang in June, I walked away with a year's worth of memories filled with the realization of literature's most profound significance—the ability to awaken dormant feelings, to transport us to unseen worlds, and to reveal the shared threads of our human experiences.

(2026·广东名校联盟摸底)
Power often boosts an employee's creativity because being powerful liberates the individual from restrictions.However, new research shows that employees who are not in positions of power can become more creative when given time to “warm up” to a task by engaging in the creative task more than once.
“This is important because when people with more power are able to express their creative ideas more than those with less power，it leads to a rich-get-richer dynamic that strengthens these power imbalances，” said Brian Lucas, assistant professor in the Cornell University.“Understanding ways to boost the creativity of lower power workers can help them find the right way to deal with this low-power disadvantage，” Lucas said.
Lucas and his colleagues conducted two studies to reach their conclusion.In the first study, they divided the creative idea generation session into two rounds consisting of a one-minute “warm up” followed by a second round in which the participants could take as long as they wanted.Participants were randomly assigned to a high-power condition or a low-power condition, and feelings of power were generated with a role manipulation (操纵)where participants were given a leadership role and control over resources (high power)or an employee role with no control over resources (low power)．The study found that high-power individuals were more creative than low-power individuals in the warm-up round.There was no difference, though, in creativity in the second round.
In the second study, the researchers gave them a different creative task and increased the number of rounds from two sessions to five, taking as long as they like to complete the task.Similar to the first study, the study found that high-power individuals were more creative than low-power individuals in the first round.But the creativity of low-power individuals caught up to the creativity of the high－power individuals after the first round.
“The low-power warm-up effect suggests a simple intervention that empowers all employees to tap their creative potential and overcomes power imbalances in the workplace：when pursuing creative work, let employees warm up first，” Lucas said.
[语篇解读]本文是一篇说明文。研究发现，给予“热身”时间后，职位低的员工的创造力可以得到提升。
1．Why does Lucas think it important to boost the creativity of lower power workers？(　　)
A．It maintains power imbalances.
B．It motivates their ambition to catch up.
C．It creates a competitive work environment.
D．It encourages a workplace with more equality.

解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中“Participants were randomly assigned to a high-power condition or a low-power condition… with no control over resources (low power)．”可知，参与者的权力感是通过给予不同角色(领导角色或无资源控制权的员工角色)产生的。故选B。

Artificial intelligence (AI)is no longer a science-fiction concept; it is rapidly integrating into the fabric of our workplaces.From automated customer service chatbots to algorithms (算法)that analyze vast amounts of data, AI is changing the way businesses operate.But what does this mean for the future of work
One of the most significant impacts of AI is the potential for job displacement.Routine tasks that are rule-based, such as data entry and some aspects of manufacturing, are at high risk of being automated.A study by McKinsey Global Institute predicts that by 2030, up to 375 million workers globally may need to switch occupational categories due to automation.This displacement is not limited to low-skilled jobs.Even some white-collar professions, like certain types of financial analysis, are vulnerable (易受影响的)as AI algorithms can process and analyze financial data more quickly and accurately than humans.
However, AI also has the potential to create new job opportunities.As AI systems become more widespread, there is a growing need for professionals who can develop, maintain, and improve these technologies.Jobs in AI research, machine learning engineering, and data science are on the rise.These new roles require a high-level of technical skills, often in fields like computer science, mathematics, and statistics.
The challenge lies in preparing the workforce for this shift.There is a need for reskilling and upskilling programs to help workers transition into new roles.Governments, educational institutions, and businesses must work together to provide accessible and relevant training.For instance, some companies are already offering in-house training programs to teach employees basic coding and data analysis skills.
In conclusion, AI is a double-edged sword for the future of work.While it poses a threat of job displacement, it also offers the promise of new and more fulfilling career paths.The key is to manage this transition effectively, ensuring that the benefits of AI are shared widely.
[语篇解读]本文是一篇议论文。文章讨论了人工智能(AI)如何迅速融入我们的工作场所，以及它对未来工作的双重影响：一方面可能导致工作岗位的替代，另一方面也将创造新的就业机会。
5．According to the McKinsey Global Institute's prediction, what might happen by 2030？(　　)

6．What new job opportunities does AI bring？(　　)
