Facebook is a place where we share and celebrate memories with our friends and family. We post words and pictures honoring birthdays, anniversaries and weddings. We also show respect to the people we lost, and find sympathy and support among our friends. Sheryl Sandberg, Facebook’s chief operating officer, recently shared a moving post about her late husband, Dave Goldberg, on what would have been his 48th birthday. “Today my family and friends and I mourn that he was taken away from us so suddenly and so young,” wrote Sandberg, 46, tagging Goldberg’s memorial page. “It has been a long 22 weeks, grappling moment to moment and day to day with the often overwhelming void (空虚) that his death has left in our lives.” She shared photos of Goldberg—one from their wedding and the other of what appears to be him as a child. The Facebook manager went on to thank her family and friends for their ongoing support, and to praise her husband’s achievements as a father and CEO of the company Survey Monkey. Sandberg said in a Facebook post back in June, in ceremony of the end of the first month for her husband’s death, “I was talking to a friend Phil about a father-child activity that Dave is not here to do. We came up with a plan to fill in for Dave. I cried to him, ‘ But I want Dave. He put his arm around me and said, ‘Option A is not available. So let’s just kick the shit out of option B.” 【1】Facebook is a place where we ________.

Children are now more likely to want to work in social media or gaming than traditional careers, a survey has found. According to the new research, many seven to eleven-year-olds are looking at modern technology when they think about future jobs, rather than professions such as police officer or doctor. Children’s career aspirations are often based on factors such as gender stereotypes or what they’ve seen in the media, TV and film. Around 21% said they wanted to be sportsmen or sportswomen, followed by 11% wanting to be teachers, and 7% wanting to be vets. Another 6% wanted to work in social media and gaming. This was a sign that there had been “a shift in the aspirations of children, built largely upon new communication methods and the growth of online and console-based gaming”. “For more and more children and young people, online celebrities and YouTube gaming ‘vloggers’ have taken the place of TV and movie stars,” the report said. Social media and gaming is the fourth most popular career choice for children, while singer/musician and actor/actress further down the list at ninth and thirteenth. “It could be argued that this is due to the growing fame and attraction of YouTube and video blogging stars, who are especially popular among younger audiences.” Also, these choices may also speak to children’s present worlds. Many seven to eleven-year-olds will spend their time gaming and perhaps simultaneously watching celebrity gaming bloggers instructing them how to do it. The survey found that 5% of children who took part wanted to be in the police, with the same proportion planning on becoming doctors. A gender breakdown shows the top job choice for girls was teacher (19%), followed by vet (11%) and sportswoman (9%), while for boys it was sportsman (34%) followed by social media and gaming (9%) and police (8%). This highlights the pressing need for closer ties between employers and schools, to make sure that all children have access to role models in a wide range of sectors to help them develop an awareness of career options at an early age. “This is important to ensure that all children—regardless of gender and backgrounds—can fulfill their full potential.” 【1】What is concluded in the study? A.Children prefer online celebrities to an actor now. B.Children spend more time playing games. C.Children are addicted to social media. D.Children know nothing but modem technology. 【2】What has contributed to changing children’s career aspirations? A.Gender stereotypes. B.The new methods of communication. C.Their different backgrounds. D.Their level of education. 【3】What do the numbers in the last but one paragraph suggest? A.Vets are disliked by girls. B.Girls aren’t suitable for police. C.Gender influences children’s choice of a job. D.Sports stars are popular with boys and girls. 【4】Why do children need an awareness of career choices early? A.They can build close relationship with employers. B.They can work in different sectors. C.They can become role models. D.They can explore their potential fully. |
