My First Job

When I was 16, I got a weekend job as a cleaner in a hotel. It paid the usual payment of £5 an

hour. Anyway, cleaning couldn’t be that difficult, could it?

There was a lot more to the job than you might expect. First, I’d

collect all the things I needed and put them in my cart. Then I set to work

on cleaning the rooms. I made the beds, cleaned the baths, and did some

other work. It wasn’t fun. In fact, it was unpleasant, especially at the

beginning. The first time I made a bed, I didn’t do it correctly, and the

manager made cart me do it all over again. One of my workmates showed

me what to do and I took notes, just like I did in school. It took ages for me to get it right but when I

did, I felt happy and confident.

Although it wasn’t well paid, the job enabled me to party with my friends. It wasn’t just the

money that made it all worthwhile. For the first time I was able to spend time with adults other than

my parents and teachers. If I didn’t want to do the work, these grown-ups wouldn’t try to force me to

do it. It was up to me to push myself. That was one very important lesson for me to learn and one I

never got taught in school.

My time at the hotel also taught me that you can learn new skills from any kind of work, even a

job you never thought you’d do. And at the same time, it showed me where I didn’t want to be in the

future. And I didn’t want to be in a hotel cleaning for the rest of my life. I was looking for something

a lot more challenging.

24. What did the writer think of her job when she started doing it?

A. Interesting. B. Easy. C. Unpleasant.

第4页（共12页）

D. Unimportant.

25. Who pushed the writer to work when she didn’t want to?

A. The writer herself.

C. The hotel manager.

B. Her parents.

D. Her workmates.

26. From the story, we know that the writer

A. regretted doing the job B. disliked her workmates

D. was open to learning new things

C

Have you considered being a writer? Maybe this is a dream you’ve had ever since you were

young. But writing for a living is not easy, and before you start, you should be sure that you are

doing it for the right reasons and go in with your eyes open.

To be a writer, you need to get used to being alone. A writer must be ready to spend at least five

hours a day alone, often in front of the computer. At the same time, remember that good stories are

created through a lot of effort.

Another question might be how to tell if you have a talent for writing. Perhaps you always got

good grades at school for your writing, or you worked on school newspapers, or won prizes for your

writing. Perhaps you may have had articles published (出版) in magazines. This shows you have

good writing skills.

Originality is always considered the heart of writing. It is important that tired old ideas and

words do not appear in your writing. From the first page, the story should be like nothing anyone has

ever read before. Try to surprise your reader at every turn and make your reader say, “Wow! I never

expected that to happen!”

Even though there are a lot of challenges, if you still want to be a writer, here are some ideas

that might help. First, remember that your first draft (草稿) will never be perfect. The value of the

first draft may be to start developing and organizing your ideas. Many successful writers write,

rewrite, and rewrite again.

When you write, put yourself in the place of the reader. Try to write stories that you would like

to read yourself. If you are writing a passage only because you have to, your reader is certainly not

going to enjoy it. Most, if not all, good writers read as much as possible. When you read other

people’s work, think about what makes for good writing and use that in your own writing. As a

writer, you are a kind of educator. Make sure that you are well-informed about the things you write

about.

C. was satisfied with the payment

Doing research has helped many writers create more interesting and realistic stories. Writing is

different for everyone. If writing is really for you, chances are you already know it deep down and

have done for some time. If so, good luck!

27. What is the most important thing for a writer?

A. Aloneness. B. Interest. C. Creativity. D. Talent.

28. The writer probably agrees that________.

A. writers should do research about what is written

B. successful writers should write the first draft perfectly

C. writers should ask readers for advice about what to write

D. good writers should avoid following other writers’ writing styles

29. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A. Are You Talented at Writing?

B. Do You Want to Be a Writer?

C. Is Writing Different for Everyone?

D. Do You Need Practice to Be a Writer?

D

Being thankful and expressing it to others is good for our health and happiness. It also helps us

build trust and closer relationships with the people around us.

These benefits have mostly been seen when two people are involved: one person gives thanks

and the other receives thanks. Now, a new study suggests that expressing gratitude (感谢) not only

improves one-to- one relationships, but could bring whole groups together—inspiring (激发) a will

to help and connect in people who simply see an act of gratitude.

In this study, Sara Algoe and her team ran several experiments to find out how seeing gratitude

influences people’s feelings toward the thankful person and the person who is thanked.

In one experiment, participants (参与者) were tasked with reading a movie review draft and

underlining eye catching parts for the reviewer s benefit. First they saw an example. Several lines of

text were underlined, as the task required, but many mistakes were also corrected, showing effort that

went beyond the task. Some participants could see a handwritten note from the reviewer saying,
