Twenty-five years ago, most young Britons wanted a career in law, to be a doctor, or, if they were creatively minded, to take up singing. But today, things stand differently. According to a survey by Tesco Mobile, a UK telecoms company, the “dream job” of young people aged between 16 and 25 in the UK is a video blogger, or “vlogger”. The survey, carried out among 1,002 people, found that as much as 40 percent of them put vlogger as their number one choice on a list of ideal jobs. The only reason for this change is undoubtedly the Internet and social media. They have made it so much easier to reach a global user, without having to get a job in show business in the traditional way. “In years gone by, the biggest stars were shaped and trained by the Hollywood studios; now, anyone with a computer camera can become an icon(偶像),” a Tesco Mobile spokesperson said in a news release. “These self-made stars record their hobbies to an admiring fan-base. Vloggers are the big stars of today because they are normal people interacting with their fans about everyday life.” However, what people see is only the great side of being a vlogger and they ignore the fact that only those who are successful get fame and fortune. There are the dreams that come true and the dreams that still remain dreams. This is why although vloggers are popular, some young people choose jobs that don’t necessarily earn them fame, but allow them to make good use of the Internet to share their hobbies. Young Israeli David Leshaw, for example, runs a business called the Finishers Club. It’s an online platform(平台) for runners to keep a record of their races. He told the website Zippia that his job allows him to express his thought, and is always a learning experience. And that’s enough for him. 【1】A “vlogger” means a kind of ______. A.video B.job C.game D.survey 【2】What might NOT be the possible reasons for young people to become a vlogger? A.Excitement and fun. B.Success and experience. C.Fame and income. D.Interest and hobby. 【3】From the text, we can learn that David Leshaw ______. A.becomes one of the biggest stars B.has different hobbies from others C.prefers to develop a rich inner heart D.becomes the icon of many admiring fans 【4】What might be the best title of the text? A.Things Stand Differently Today B.People Can All Become an Icon C.Teenagers Dream of Online Jobs D.Dreams Always Remain Dreams |

A huge colored map of the Silk Road from a royal court of the mid-Ming Dynasty was officially welcomed home at the Forbidden City in Beijing on Thursday. The 30-meter-long by 59-centimeter-wide map, named the Landscape Map of the Silk Road, is painted on silk. It describes trade routes starting at Jiayuguan, at the western end of the Great Wall during the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), through Central and West Asia to the Middle East. As many as 221 cities in what now are some 10 countries are on the map. key places on the ancient Silk Road included Gansu province’s Dunhuang, Mecca, Damascus, Esfahan in Iran and Samarqand in Uzbekistan. The map’s return was made possible as a donation from Hui Wing Mau, a Hong Kong-based real estate entrepreneur, who paid $20 million for it this year. “The map, with plenty of geographic information, proves that China had the world’s best mapping skills at that time,” said Lin Meicun, a history professor from Peking University, at the receiving ceremony on Thursday. “It also shows Chinese people had a clear understanding of the outside world before Western maps came into the country,” he added. Lin said it’s a pity that one-fourth of the original drawing, showing the route from Mecca to Istanbul, was lost, based on a modeling board for this map he found in historical records. “Maybe that part was cut off by some antique trader to sell separately,” he said. Shan Jixiang, director of the Palace Museum, said “The map is a devotion of ancient Chinese geography to the whole world. It shows the frequent business and cultural communication between China and countries along the ancient Silk Road.” 【1】Where might the Silk Road begin and end on the entire map? A.Dunhuang and Mecca. B.Jiayuguan and the Middle East. C.Dunhuang and Samarqand in Uzbekistan. D.Jiayuguan and the western end of the Great Wall. 【2】What does the underlined word “donation” in Paragraph 4 mean? A.Design. B.Present. C.Reward. D.Reception. 【3】According to Lin Meicun’ view, the map ______. A.provides useful information for history study B.stands for the frequent business in ancient China C.comes from a royal court of the mid-Ming Dynasty D.improves cultural communication of different countries 【4】How large will the map be if it’s not cut off? A.30-meter-long by 59-centimeter-wide. B.30.75-meter-long by 59-centimeter-wide. C.40-meter-long by 59-centimeter-wide. D.120-meter-long by 59-centimeter-wide. |
