However, having a successful career does not require you to sit behind a desk and plug away at a computer all day. In fact, there are a large number of non-desk jobs in a variety of industries that are growing and offering workers a direct path to the middle class, according to a new analysis of labor market information from CareerBuilder. While most of the highest-paid non-desk jobs are medical professions that require a doctoral or professional degree, there are 170 non-desk professions that pay $15 per hour or more, do not require a Bachelor's degree for a typical entry-level position, and have seen at least 6 percent job growth over the last four years.“The US workforce has gradually changed to office-based work because of the rise of the professional service economy and productivity gains associated with information technology,” Rosemary Haefner, Vice President of Human Resources at CareerBuilder, said in a statement.“But some of the healthiest areas of job growth year after year are in middle-skill professions that don't require workers to sit in front of computer monitors and phones for 40 hours a week.”Here are the top-paid jobs that don't require you to work at a desk of various kinds, none of which require a four-year college degree. And their hourly salary and growth rate are as follows since 2010:professional assistants:$26.57, 14 percent; elevator repairers:$37.81, 6 percent; mechanical engineering technicians:$25.19, 10 percent; electromechanical technicians:$24.68, 8 percent.While they tend to pay less than traditional office jobs, non-desk professions provide a variety of benefits. Haefner pointed to a 2014 CareerBuilder survey that discovered employees who don't work at a desk all day were less likely to complain about their work environment and more dedicated to their work.1.What does the underlined phrase “plug away” in the first paragraph probably mean?A.Turn off a switch.B.Look for a job.C.Keep on working.D.Give up working.2.What conclusion can we draw from the second paragraph?A.A non-desk job may provide you with a middle-class life.B.The last four years has seen an increase in desk jobs.C.The college degree is the ticket to a position.D.A non-desk job cannot offer you a secure life.3.What does the writer attempt to tell us?A.“Office jobs” are appealing to the middle class.B.Non-desk jobs are a good choice for us.C.“Office jobs” are secure and high-paid.D.Non-desk professions are better than office jobs.B(2020北京东城高三月考)John Harrison has an enviable job in most people's opinion. He's the official taster for Dreyer's Grand Ice Cream, one of the best-selling ice cream brands in the U.S.A. On an average day, Harrison has to sample sixty ice creams at the Dreyer's headquarters. When he isn't doing that, he travels all over the country, buying Dreyer's ice cream in supermarkets so that he can carry out spot checks(抽查) for appearance and flavor. But, no matter how wonderful this job may sound, it is actually quite tough. It's difficult work, requiring discipline, selflessness, and thorough preparation.Before tasting a sample, Harrison uses his eyes first. If the ice cream doesn't look attractive, he skips it. Then, he uses a gold spoon instead of one made of wood, plastic, or other metal. This is because regular spoons leave an aftertaste that can dull the taste buds(味蕾). In addition, the temperature of the ice cream may also influence the taster's taste buds.When Harrison samples ice cream, he first takes only a small bite of the ice cream, swishes(使嗖地快速移动) it around in his mouth to introduce it to each of his taste buds, lightly licks his lips, and then gently breathes in so as to bring the smell up through the back of his mouth to his nose. With each step, he carefully sizes up whether the ice cream conveys the ideal balance between dairy sweetness and the flavor of the added ingredients. And last of all, no matter what the ice cream tastes like, he spits(吐) it out, since a full stomach makes for a dull palate(迟钝的味觉).For Harrison, keeping a sharp palate(味觉;品尝力) means no onions, garlic, or cayenne pepper. He also doesn't have any coffee or tea, since these block the taste buds. But to him, this is just a small price to pay for what he calls “the world's best job”.Harrison's family has been in the ice cream business for four generations, and Harrison himself has spent almost his whole life in it as well. Yet, he has never lost his love of the cold, creamy sweetness. He orders ice cream in restaurants for dessert, even when he's not at work. On these occasions, he swallows the ice cream, taking in about a liter a week. Though he has gained some weight over the years he's been with Dreyer's, he couldn't care less. “Who would trust a skinny ice cream taster?” he jokes.4.What is forbidden in Harrison's job?A.Doing shopping.B.Eating the ice cream.C.Using gold spoons.D.Skipping the ice cream.5.What can we learn about Harrison?A.He learned his work skills from his family.B.His job affects his appetite for the ice cream.C.He is willing to give up something for his job.D.He has to gain some weight to meet the need of the work.6.What does Harrison think of his job?A.Creative.B.Ordinary.C.High-paid.D.Proud.7.What is the main purpose of the passage?A.To describe Harrison's job and how he does it.B.To analyze the reasons why Harrison chose his job.C.To make suggestions on how to apply for popular careers.D.To introduce the advantages of working for a best-selling brand.七选五(2020河南信阳高二上期末)Résumé(简历) tips:4 ways to stand out on paperAccording to a recent study,recruiters(招聘人员)only spend six seconds looking at your résumé.

A语篇解读这是一篇说明文。一个成功的职业并不需要你必须在桌子后面整天看着电脑。在各行各业中,有大量的非办公室工作岗位正在增加,为工人提供了通往中产阶级的直接途径。1.C 词义猜测题。结合上文However, having a successful career does not require you to sit behind a desk可知,拥有一份成功的职业并不需要你整天坐在桌子后面,并列连词and后是画线词,所以画线词的词义是与坐在桌子后面类似的,那就是在电脑前一直工作,故选C。2.A推理判断题。根据第二段中的In fact, there are a large number.to the middle class可知,事实上各行各业都有大量的非办公室工作,这些工作岗位正在增加,为工人们提供了一条通往中产阶级的道路。所以,从第二段中能得出的结论就是非办公室工作可能会给你提供中产阶级的生活,故选A。3.B 推理判断题。最后一段作者指出非办公室工作会提供给人们很多好处,比如员工对工作环境的抱怨更少,更加专心于工作,因此作者想要告诉我们的就是非办公室工作对我们来说是一个好的选择。故选B。【高频词汇】1.majority n.大多数2.(be) associated with与有关3.a variety of各种各样的原句While most of the highest-paid non-desk jobs are medical professions that require a doctoral or professional degree, there are 170 non-desk professions that pay $15 per hour or more, do not require a Bachelor's degree for a typical entry-level position, and have seen at least 6 percent job growth over the last four years.分析该句While引导让步状语从句,主句为there be句型。While引导的让步状语从句中,又含有that引导的定语从句,先行词为medical professions;让步状语从句对应的主句中,that引导定语从句,先行词为170 non-desk professions,and连接的是三个并列的谓语。句意虽然大多数薪酬最高的非办公室工作是需要博士或专业学位的医疗职业,但有170个非办公室职业薪水是每小时15美元或者更多,不需要一个平常入门级职位的学士学位,并且在过去四年中见证了至少6%的就业增长。B语篇解读这是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了约翰·哈里森的令人羡慕的工作冰激凌试味员,其实这一职业并不像人们想象的那么美好,背后也需要付出很多。4.B细节理解题。根据第三段中的And last of all, no matter what the ice cream tastes like, he spits(吐) it out, since a full stomach makes for a dull palate(迟钝的味觉).可知,试味结束后哈里森是不能吃掉冰激凌的,要吐掉以避免饱腹感对味觉的影响。故选B。5.C推理判断题。根据第四段可知,尽管为了保持味觉敏锐,日常生活中需要忌口,但哈里森仍然觉得这份工作无与伦比,为此做出一些牺牲也可以接受。故选C。6.D推理判断题。根据第四段中的But to him, this is just a small price to pay for what he calls “the world's best job”.并结合最后两段来看,哈里森喜爱自己的工作,也将毕生精力投入其中,对于这份工作他是引以为傲的。故选D。7.A推理判断题。文章围绕着哈里森从事冰激凌试味员这项工作展开,详细描述了其工作内容,旨在让读者对这一职业有所了解。故选A。【高频词汇】1.discipline n.纪律;训练2.thorough adj.彻底的;深入的3.convey v.传送;传达原句When he isn't doing that, he travels all over the country, buying Dreyer's ice cream in supermarkets so that he can carry out spot checks for appearance and flavor.分析本句为主从复合句。When引导时间状语从句,主句中buying.为现在分词短语作伴随状语,其中so that引导目的状语从句。句意当他不做那件事情的时候,他游遍全国,在超市里买德雷尔的冰激凌,这样他就可以对外观和味道进行抽查。.语篇解读本文是说明文,介绍了四种让你的简历吸引招聘人员的方法。1.F 空前一句提出问题So how do you make it into.?选项F“通过跳出框架思考,制作一份吸引招聘人员注意力的简历”回答了上一句的问题。结合下文可知,下一句中的 to do just that是指选项F中的做法。2.G 空前一句说you can take it a step further(你可以更进一步);选项G意为:查看该公司的网站,寻找任何符合你经历的公司目标。作者建议针对公司的要求,在你的简历中以关键词的形式呈现你的经历会更容易吸引招聘人员。这是对“更进一步”的补充说明。3.B 分析文章结构可知,该空是此段的小标题。根据下文Under personal accomplishments she wrote.可知,此段主题是在你的简历中要体现你所取得的成就。选项B“加上不寻常的成就”符合该段主题。4.D 此段的小标题为“把你的简历变成信息图”;选项D指出你的简历不必是一页成就清单。根据下文提到make your résumé look different from the standard one-page list可知,作者建议让你的简历看起来不同
