CommanderCAbout a month after I joined Facebook,I got a call from Lori Goler,a highly regarded senior director ofmarketing at eBay.She made it clear this was a business call.“I want to apply to work with you at Facebook,”shesaid.“Instead of recommending myself,I want to ask you:What is your biggest problem,and how can I solve it?”My jaw hit the floor.I had hired thousands of people over the previous decade and no one had ever saidanything remotely like that.People usually focus on finding the right role for themselves,with the implication thattheir skills will help the company.Lori put Facebooks needs front and center.It was a killer approach.I responded,“Recruiting is my biggest problem.And,yes,you can solve it.”Lori never dreamed she would work in recruiting,but she jumped in.She even agreed to trade earnings foracquiring new skills in a new field.Lori did a great job running recruiting and within months was promoted to hercurrent job,leading PeopleFacebook.The most common metaphor for careers is a ladder,but this concept no longer applies to most workers.As of2010,the average American had eleven jobs from the ages of eighteen to forty-six alone.Lori often quotes PattieSellers,who came up with a much better metaphor:“Careers are a jungle gym,not a ladder.”As Lori describes it,theres only one way to get to the top of a ladder,but there are many ways to get to thetop of a jungle gym.The jungle gym model benefits everyone,but especially women who might be starting careers,switching careers,getting blocked by external barriers,or reentering the workforce after taking time off.Theability to create a unique path with occasional dips,detours(弯路),and even dead ends presents great views ofmany people,not just those at the top.On a ladder,most climbers are stuck staring at the buttof the personabove.8.Why did Lori make the call?A.She helped Facebook to solve the biggest problem.B.She wanted to make a business deal with Facebook.C.She tried to ask for a pay rise in Facebook.D.She wanted to become an employee in Facebook.9.What impressed“I”by Lori?A.Lori was good at running recruiting.B.Lori attached great importance to Facebooks needs.C.Lori jumped in Facebook with no adequate experience.D.Lori was skilled in marketing at eBay.10.What can we infer from the passage?A.Now all people dont tend to climb the ladder.B.None on the ladder can enjoy the great views.C.Jungle gyms offer limited exploration for employees.D.A pregnant woman,jobless,benefits little from the jungle gyms.11.What is the best title of the passage?A.Its a Jungle Gym,Not a Ladder.B.Facebooks Biggest Problem.C.Applying for a Job in Facebook.D.A Jungle Gym is Better than a Ladder.DEarthquake can disrupt whales hunting for food for up to a year,according to a new study.On November 14,2016,the Kaikoura earthquake struck New Zealands South Island,causing a destructivetsunami.Under the surface,the earthquake caused strong currents that swept away and mostly killed off diverseecosystems of creatures living along the Kaikoura underwater canyon.As a result,whales had to dive deeper and longer to find food“a major shift”in their behavior,saysco-author Liz Slooten,a marine biologist at the University of Otago in New Zealand.The impact earthquakes have on land animals has been well documented,but scientists know ly little aboutwhat happens underwater.Such research is important for government agencies,which may need to take recentearthquakes into consideration when considering fishing quotas(限额),notes Rochelle Constantine,a marinemammal ecologist at the University of Auckland.The canyons upper reaches are rich in creatures,supplying food for the fish that make up the whales diet.Sowhen these smaller life forms were washed away,it had“severe consequences for the community around there”,says study co-author Will Rayment.“That effect flowed all the way through the food chain.”As part of their ongoing study,the scientists were tracking 42 individual whales.After the earthquake,in all,the team managed to record data on 40 whales,showing that the abundance of whales in the general area didntchange after the earthquake.However,the whales changed how they used their habitat.A year after the earthquake,the researchers observed the whales returning to their previoussurface-breathing intervals.This could have been because the communities of animals that make up the whalesfood began to recover.“It gives you an idea of how resilient(有复原力的)these deep-sea communities are,”saysRayment.But he and his colleagues will continue long-term monitoring to see if there are effects they missed.Whaleactivity in the area had already been declining,though its unknown whether it is due to natural changes in foodabundance,whale-watching tourism,fishing,or warming ocean temperatures.“There is something going on inKaikoura,”says Rayment.12.What happened after the Kaikoura earthquake in the Kaikoura canyon?A.Several destructive tsunamis struck the area.B.Whales had to swim to other oceans to find food.C.Nearly all marine creatures in Kaikoura were killed off.D.Strong currents washed away many smaller creatures.13.Which is one of the findings of the study?A.Earthquakes can make it easier for whales to find food.B.The whales changed their habitat after the earthquake.C.It usually takes whales a year to adapt to their new diet.D.The number of whales in the area dropped sharply after the quake.14.What does Rochelle Constantine think of the study?A.It can help government agencies to make some decisions about fishing.B.It can help government agencies to solve problems in the fishing industry.C.It is a breakthrough in research on what happens underwater after an earthquake.D.It offers a detailed description of the impact earthquake have on marine mammals.15.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.Something is affecting the whale activity in Kaikoura.B.Fishing quotas have been increasing in recent years.C.The team missed some effects in the research process.D.The scientists will continue studying earthquakes.第二节(共第二节(共 5 5 小题;每小题小题;每小题 2 2 分,满分分,满分 1 10 0 分)分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项You want to
