【題目】根據(jù)短文理解,選擇正確答案。
“When I grow up, I want to be...”
Almost all of us have thought about,or been asked to think about,our future careers. Our answers may differ greatly. Even now your aspirations(志向,抱負(fù))may have changed from when you were in primary school.
However,it seems that career choices aren't only based on personal taste. In a survey carried out by Teens, doctors,lawyers,and bankers were some of most popular careers that people said they hoped to follow. This is similar to a survey carried out in the UK in May 2016 by job website—Co.uk,in which medicine was the top choice among UK teenagers aged between 13 and 17.
Medicine and law are two of the oldest and best known professions. Their prestige (威望) may come from the fact that doctors and lawyers are muchrespected members of society,and they make good money. What's more, these professions are often seen as a sign of upward social class.
It is equally unsurprising that banking is now one of the most common career choices. Youngsters worldwide think of banking and see the money rolling in. Wealth is increasingly becoming one of the most important indicators(標(biāo)志) of a successful career.
However,not every child has the makings of doctor, lawyer, or banker. They are those who see achievement and happiness in other areas. As the Teens' survey discovered,a variety of unconventional(非傳統(tǒng)的) jobs—coffee shop owner,waiter at a fast food restaurant—are among teenagers' career choices. They can be equally interesting and rewarding jobs.
With every choice comes responsibility and challenge,and all career paths require specific education and training,you have to learn to balance optimism(樂觀主義)and confidence with being realistic about your particular talents and skills.
(1)What is the passage mainly about?
A.Careers in teenagers' mind.
B.Choosing a good job is very important.
C.Teenagers in the UK like doctors.
D.The choice of career needs challenge.
(2)What is the top career choice among UK teenagers aged between 13 and 17 according to the article?
A.Medicine.
B.Law.
C.Bank.
D.Education.
(3)All of the following are the benefits of being a doctor or a lawyer except .
A.respect from others
B.the oldest profession
C.high pay
D.upward social class
(4)What can be learned from the last two paragraphs?
A.Careers such as waiters are not as rewarding as doctors and lawyers.
B.Specific education and training can help get a good job.
C.Responsibility is the most important when you choose a good job.
D.Optimism and confidence is more important than being realistic when choosing careers.
