(2019·湖南省五市十校教研改共同体联考)I started to work as an editor for a travel magazine. I didn't really mind the work, but I wanted something more challenging. My sister sent me some details for a position in a start­up. The job was a seemingly perfect mix of my skills and interests, so I jumped at it.

However, soon after I joined the company，its model changed to focus on K­12 education, and everything about my position changed. I was asked to take on the completely different roles of selling contents to teachers and training people. I had no experience in sales, training or education. On top of that, I'm an introvert (内向的人)．I felt more a little outside my comfort zone.

I knew I wanted to grow as an individual and make a serious impact on the company. I told myself that everything feels overwhelming at first and I should at least try. In a way, I felt like I didn't have a choice. I knew jumping out of the nest was the right thing for me, even though it felt pretty awful.

I was fortunate to be surrounded by very helpful people, both at work and at home. My boss never asked if I thought I could do it; she asked if I was interested in trying.

I spent hours researching my company's products. I asked lots of questions and spoke to so many teachers that there were soon more good experiences than difficult ones. I looked for opportunities to put in extra effort. The more I did, the better I felt.

Over time, I discovered that the job was something I could do and liked doing. It was incredibly rewarding to see the company grow. I also learned it's important to take risks and accept new opportunities, even when you're not sure if you'll do well. I don't think there's anything worse than failing to try. I'm so glad I tried, and it surely paid off.

【语篇解读】　本文是一篇记叙文。“我”曾经是某旅游杂志的编辑，但“我”需要更具有挑战性的工作，所以“我”听从了姐姐的建议跳槽到了一家新公司。可是不久，这家公司的模式改变，内向的“我”被安排到了营销岗位。在老板的鼓励下，“我”不断尝试，终于取得了良好的业绩。

4．Why did the author want to change her job?

A．She intended to challenge something new.

B．She was paid too little at her old job.

C．She followed her sister's advice.

D．She got bored of her old boss.

A　[细节理解题。根据第一段第一、二句“I started to work as an editor for a travel magazine. I didn't really mind the work, but I wanted something more challenging”可知，“我”曾是某旅游杂志的编辑，虽然“我”并不介意这项工作，但“我”想要更有挑战性的工作；据此可知，作者想要挑战新事物。故A项正确。]

5．How did the author feel after she entered the new company?

A．Excited. B．Curious.

C．Stressed. D．Comfortable.

C　[推理判断题。根据第二段最后三句“I had no experience in sales, training or education. On top of that , I'm an introvert(内向的人)．I felt more a little outside my comfort zone” 可知，“我”没有销售、培训或教育方面的经验，“我”还是一个内向的人；据此可推知，作者一开始感到有压力，故C项正确。]

6．The author could finally handle her job mainly because        ．

A．people around her helped her solve the challenge

B．she was hardworking and made a lot of effort

C．she knew she would do well

D．her boss trusted her to try

B　[推理判断题。根据第五段的内容可知，“我”花时间研究公司的产品，向有经验的老师请教，并寻找机会努力工作；据此可推知，作者能驾驭工作的主要原因是她工作勤奋，付出了很多努力，故B项正确。]

7．What's the author's purpose in writing the text?

A．To tell readers that failure is the mother of success.

B．To warn about the risks and challenges when changing jobs.

C．To expose risks and challenges in a small and newly founded company.

D．To encourage readers to take on challenges and turn risks into opportunities.

D　[写作意图题。通读全文可知，“我”曾经是某旅游杂志的编辑，但“我”需要更具有挑战性的工作，所以“我”听从了姐姐的建议跳槽到了一家新公司；可是不久，这家公司的模式改变，内向的“我”被安排到营销岗位；在老板的鼓励下，“我”不断尝试，努力工作，终于取得了良好的业绩。“我”明白了要勇于尝试、承担风险、接受挑战的道理。据此可推知，本文旨在鼓励读者接受挑战，将风险转变为机会，故D项正确。]
