According to the latest survey, making a difference through their work is essential(必要的) to young people39。 The survey found that 72 percent of graduating college seniors believe being able to have a positive social influence through their work is essential to their happiness. Making a difference is so important to them that 45 percent say they would take a 15 percent pay cut to work at an organization that has a social or environmental influence, and 58 percent say they would take a pay cut to work for an organization whose values are the same as their own. One reason for the emphasis(強調(diào)) on improving the world probably has to do with the culture of colleges, which encourages students to connect their studies back to realworld problems. Students are used to discussing important social issues(問題) with their friends and professors, and doing something about them in class or through volunteer activities. Once students develop those habits, they don39。 education has on their children.（3）What can you learn from the passage? people will surely gain happiness if they can make a difference in their work. than half of the college seniors will take a pay cut to work with the same values. college graduates believe it important to have a positive social influence in work. graduates are all putting more social influence in first place than male graduates.（4）Which could be the best title for the passage? Students Are Concerned about Society People39。t Depend on Money Bee More Interested in Challenging Jobs Graduates Would Take a Pay Cut to Make a Difference【答案】 （1）B（2）C（3）C（4）D 【解析】【分析】本文是一篇說明文，通過工作能有一個積極的社會影響對年輕人的幸福至關(guān)重要。根據(jù)第三段中的“Besides this, the survey found that female students are far more likely to put social influence in first place than their male classmates”除此之外，調(diào)查發(fā)現(xiàn)女生比男生更有可能把社會影響放在第一位；以及“the results of a former study showing that female maths and science majors are more likely to say they go into those fields to make a difference.”以前的一項研究結(jié)果顯示，數(shù)學(xué)和科學(xué)專業(yè)女學(xué)生所占的比例更有可能說她們進(jìn)入這些領(lǐng)域是為了有所作為，可以推斷出兩項調(diào)查的結(jié)果是一致的。故選B。根據(jù)最后一段中的“One reason for the emphasis(強調(diào)) on improving the world probably has to do with the culture of colleges, which encourages students to connect their studies back to realworld problems.”強調(diào)改善世界的一個原因可能與大學(xué)文化有關(guān)，大學(xué)文化鼓勵學(xué)生將他們的學(xué)習(xí)與現(xiàn)實世界的問題聯(lián)系起來。 （3）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。可知，多數(shù)的畢業(yè)生都認(rèn)可工作產(chǎn)生的社會影響對他們而言是重要的。 （4）考查主旨大意。所以，文章主要闡述年輕人的幸福取決于在工作中改變世界；再根據(jù)第二段中的“Making a difference is so important to them that 45 percent say they would take a 15 percent pay cut to work at an organization that has a social or environmental influence, and 58 percent say they would take a pay cut to work for an organization whose values are the same as their own.”對他們來說，改變世界是如此重要，以至于45% 的人說他們愿意接受15% 的減薪去為一個對社會或環(huán)境有影響的組織工作，58% 的人說他們愿意接受減薪去一個與他們價值觀相同的組織工作。 【點評】本題考點涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解，詞義猜測和主旨大意三個題型的考查，是一篇教育類閱讀，要求考生在捕捉細(xì)節(jié)信息的基礎(chǔ)上，進(jìn)一步根據(jù)上下文的邏輯關(guān)系，進(jìn)行分析，推理，概括和歸納，從而選出正確答案。 My challenge for you is this: to read a book for 15minutes every single day for a month.by telling you where the challenge came from. I have many things in mon with my dad, like music taste and sense of humor, but sadly reading isn39。t read a book for longer than about 5 minutes. He reads s, websites and papers for work, but not books. He39。 My dad is not the only person who avoids books. I know lots of people would rather relax on their puters or in front of the TV. Everyone is different and has their own interests, but I think there are lots of benefits to reading, which screen﹣based activities don39。 Firstly, it39。s sleep. I also enjoy hearing what people are doing and finding out what they think. Reading gives me the chance to get to know hundreds of new people! It also teaches you to see things from other people39。s decisions or opinions. With a book, you can hear everything a character is thinking or feeling﹣you really can be inside someone else39。 So give it a go! Take 15 minutes when you are waking up, going to bed, eating lunch, or having a coffee. If you read a lot, why not try 15 minutes of an English book, or pass the challenge on to someone else? Good luck, and happy reading!（1）The author mentions his father in the text to show. A.reading is importantC.many people have no habit of reading（2）The author writes the text mainly basing on.
