An Excerpt from Robinson Crusoe
He was very quick, and I took pleasure in teaching him.I told him all about gunpowder and guns and showed him how to shoot.I gave him a knife, which pleased him not a little.I made him a belt and gave him a hatchet to carry in it.I told him about the countries on the other side of the great ocean.And I told him something of my own history.Little by little I explained how my people traded in great ships, and how my own ship had been wrecked on the coast of this island.Thus, between working and teaching, I forgot all my fears.The days passed by, and every day brought some new delight.It was the pleasantest year of my life.
他动作很快，我很乐意教他。我告诉他所有关于火药和枪支的事，并教他如何射击。我给了他一把刀，这使他非常高兴。我给他做了一条皮带，并给了他一把斧头让他随身携带。我告诉他大洋彼岸的国家。我告诉他一些我自己的历史。我一点一点地解释了我的人民是如何在大船里做买卖的，我自己的船是如何在这个岛的海岸上被毁的。因此，在工作和教学之间，我忘记了所有的恐惧。日子一天天过去，每天都带来一些新的快乐。这是我一生中最愉快的一年。
[点评]　本段话中主要运用了“平行结构”修辞手法，用“I told him, I told him, And I told him” “gave him, gave him” “how my people ...and how my own ship ...”和“ ... days ...day” 等平行结构增加了语言的节奏感、流畅性， 加强了语言的气势，表达了鲁滨逊多年来积压的孤独情感酣畅淋漓地宣泄，让他骨子里的控制欲得到极大的满足，为此鲁滨逊感觉到这是他生命中最快乐的日子。

随着科技的进步、社会的发展，新职业不断涌现，职业对劳动者的自身素质也提出了更高的要求，人们也面临着新的选择和转变，因此新职业、求职、工作压力等方面的素材逐渐成为高考热点主题。2016年全国卷Ⅰ高考书面表达，题目要求请外教帮忙修改你已写好的申请书和个人简历，涉及对这一主题的考查。


(节选自北师大版教材选择性必修第三册UNIT 7)
If you think you can work eight hours a day and build a career, think again.You might be able to keep your job if you finish what you are asked to do, but this is hardly a recipe for great career success. Instead, you'd better keep looking for smarter ways to do your work.(用had better提出建议)You'll need to be a risk taker, an innovator, a problem solver, and a hard worker.❶Keep doing this, and you can become an expert or a specialist in something one day.You have a chance to choose to build a career, rather than being told to stay or to go.(从工作态度的角度进行了论述)
Jobs and occupations come and go at an amazing pace these days.If you think you can't be replaced by software, or your job can't be outsourced to some robots on the moon, you are wrong.❷What if your job disappears after working for 10 years in the field？(用疑问句引发读者思考) You may have to go back to the classroom and be retrained in order to qualify to work in another field.In fact, in all likelihood, you will have to do this multiple times.But you can be prepared for developments and changes before you are thrown out of a career.It is entirely your choice to learn, or to be forced to learn.(从未来社会发展的角度进行了论述)
In short, if you want to succeed in a 21st century career, you will have to develop new essential skills.Lifetime security from one employer is no longer certain or even likely.❸The truth is that you are the boss of your career, and it is up to you to decide what you can do and how well you can do it.Are you ready for this？(在分析材料的基础上归纳论点，提出建议)
由教材学写法
1．学亮点词汇
第二段中的qualify to work强调了重新回到教室，接受再培训的目的；动词throw形象地表达了如果不主动学习就会被职业抛弃的情形；用multiple强调了有可能重复的次数很多。第三段中的形容词essential恰当地评价了培养新的必备技能的必要性。
2．学高级句式
句❶是一个并列复合句，句中and连接两个并列分句，第一个分句是祈使句，强调了持之以恒与成为某个行业的专家或专业人士之间的顺承关系，衔接紧密。
句❷用What if ...句型提出假设，该句式意为“假若……怎么办/将会怎么样”，可以引发读者思考。其后句子可用陈述语气(一般现在时)，也可用虚拟语气(一般过去时或should＋动词原形)。
句❸是一个主从复合句，句中that引导名词性从句作表语，用于解释句子主语The truth的内容：实际上，你才是自己职业生涯的老板，也只有你才能决定自己能做什么、能做多好。
3．学选材立意
本文选自一篇讨论个人应该采用什么样的态度来应对未来职业发展的议论文。想在21世纪的职业生涯中取得成功，就必须培养新的必备技能。只有不断寻找更巧妙的工作方法和主动学习才能成就一番事业，为未来的发展变化做好准备。文章从人们的错误认识入手，摆事实、讲道理，提出个人观点，有理有据，令人信服。

Six weeks ago, my friends told me that a city half­marathon for amateurs was being organized to help raise money for homeless people, and encouraged me to take part in it.Despite my lack of running experience, I agreed.At first, my PE teacher wouldn't have me running for a long time in order not to hurt my knees or ankles.Over the next six weeks, he let me gradually increase the distance I ran in each training session.Soon I ran distances I had never thought possible.The day of the half­marathon finally arrived and I felt well prepared.I ate a hearty breakfast to make me get through to the end.I finished the race with ease and confidence.

If you are applying for an internship, you will likely have to submit a cover letter as part of your application.Read below for tips on writing an internship cover letter.
Use the Business Letter Format
Use the proper business letter format when sending a cover letter by mail.Include your contact information at the top, the date, and the contact information of the employer.Be sure to provide a proper salutation (称呼语), and sign your name at the bottom.
Individualize Your Cover Letter
Make sure to write a unique cover letter for each internship for which you apply.Highlight skills and abilities you have that relate to the specific internship.The main emphasis of your cover letter should be convincing the reader that you will be a qualified intern.
Emphasize Your Academic Experience
In the letter, you can mention your academic experience, if applicable.Especially if you have limited work experience, you might use examples from school to demonstrate that you have particular skills.For example, if the internship requires you to work as part of a team, provide an example of an assistant at the library or a successful team project you worked on during one of your college courses.
Include Extracurricular Experience
You can also include details about your relevant experience from extracurricular activities or volunteer work.For example, a reporter for a college newspaper can point to interviewing and writing skills; a history of volunteering at a shelter can provide an example of strong interpersonal and organisational skills.
Proofread and Edit

Yo­Yo Ma is an American cellist (大提琴家) born in Paris to Chinese parents.His musical career is a testament to his belief in culture's power to generate trust and understanding.Whether performing works, engaging unexpected musical forms, or working with communities and institutions to explore culture's role in society, he works to create a better world that begins with culture.
Expanding upon this belief, in 1998 he established Silkroad, a collective of artists worldwide creating music that engages many traditions.In addition to presenting performances, Silkroad cooperates with museums and universities to develop training programs for teachers, musicians, and learners of all ages.Through his work with Silkroad, he frequently performs lesser­known music.
Besides, he partners with communities and institutions to develop programs that champion culture's power to transform lives and create a more connected world.Among his many roles, he is artistic director of the annual Youth Music Culture Guangdong Festival, a UN Messenger of Peace, and the first artist ever appointed to the World Economic Forum's board of trustees.
When the pandemic began, Yo­Yo began an online series titled “Songs of Comfort” to ease anxieties.His short, self­shot videos soon reached over 18 million people.On March 13, 2021, after receiving the 2nd pandemic shot, he transformed a clinic into a temporary concert hall, in a moment that residents called a symbolic representation of “the light at the end of the tunnel”．
Yo­Yo Ma once said every generation has a chance to do better, to create a world that works for all.To him, doing better begins with culture — the point at which the arts, sciences, and society cross.

Ⅱ.阅读七选五
Do you like the idea of running your own business from home? Most of you do, and the first things you say you like about it are being your own boss, having flexible hours and working in your pajamas (睡衣)．__8__
Being your own boss is definitely one big advantage.__9__ You must commit to work on your business regularly to make profits.If not, you will find that your income becomes non­existent.So, set office hours when you productively work on building your business.
__10__ Doctors' appointments and family commitments can simply be worked into your schedule.Again, you need to arrange your appointments carefully and try to book them together.This way you can get all of your running around done in one day.
Working in your pajamas may seem appealing initially.But it can also prevent you from actually getting your work done.__11__ After that, just walk into your office and start your day's work.Being too casual means getting less work done on a regular basis.
In order to run a successful business from home you need to have a good mindset.__12__ Taking off too many hours each week will damage your financial stability and long­term success.Set goals and limits on your time.Build your business first, before taking advantage of what working from home offers.
A．But it can also become your downfall without care.
B．Flexible hours are another huge plus of working from home.
C．Once it's achieved, you'll have more opportunities to develop business contacts.
D．You may find it more efficient to get up, exercise, then shower and dress for work.
E．This includes realizing that only you are responsible for your own income.
F．One of the biggest drawbacks is that it is so easy to allow yourself to have excuses.
G．While these benefits sound great, the reality of working from home can be a little different.

8．选G　空前一句提到在家开展自己的事业的三个好处，而下文一一分析了这三方面需要注意的事项，故G项承上启下，符合语境。
9．选A　该空前一句表述做自己的老板肯定是一大好处。下文说你必须有规律地投入工作否则会没有收入，表述做自己的老板的坏处。前后是转折关系。而A项“但是，如果不注意的话，它也会成为你事业下滑的开始”符合语境，故选A项。
10．选B　根据该段中的“your schedule” “arrange your appointments” “in one day”可知，该段主要讲时间安排的问题，再根据文章结构可知，第二段、第四段的内容分别对应第一段第二句提到的在家开展自己的事业的第一个和第三个好处——being your own boss; working in your pajamas (睡衣)，故此处应对应第二个好处(having flexible hours)。故B项“弹性时间是在家工作的另一大优势”符合语境，故选B项。
11．选D　空前说穿睡衣工作可能一开始看起来有吸引力，却让你无法把工作做完。而空后说在那之后，直接走进工作室开始工作，该段最后一句总结说太过随意意味着工作效率低下。故D项“你可能会发现起床、锻炼、洗澡和穿衣服上班更有效率”符合语境，故选D项。
12．选E　空前一句说为了在家开展成功的事业，你需要有好的思维模式，空处应说明好的思维模式的具体内容，故选项E“这包括意识到只有你对你自己的收入负责”符合语境。
Ⅲ.完形填空
When middle­aged Alex quitted his job and made up his mind to become a freelance writer, no one could tell for sure whether he would succeed or not. He found a cold storage room in a building, __13__ a used typewriter and settled down to work.

Li owed his success __3__ strong determination to achieve his target.He had to quit school at the age of 16 after his family members fell ill, despite always being in the top three of his class.
In 1999, Li worked as a security guard at Guizhou Normal College and __4__ (influence) by the campus atmosphere, he decided to resume his studies.
For about two years, he found time to study during the class and continued after 11：30 pm, when he was __5__ (official) off duty.He gained an opportunity for an associate degree course, __6__ did not require full­time study.
In 2007, Li __7__ (admit) to a master's programme of aesthetics at Guizhou University after two failed __8__ (try), working part­time as a tutor to support __9__ (he)．
Li got access to a doctorate programme at Central China Normal University in 2015, and he graduated last summer.He __10__ (choose) to go back to Guizhou Normal College to be a teacher, where his destiny was changed.

1．a　考查冠词。空格处介绍主语Li Mingyong的身份，作其同位语；空后的核心词dropout为可数名词的单数形式，故此处用不定冠词泛指一个。
2．landing　考查非谓语动词。根据句意可知，空处作非谓语和graduating并列作介词after的宾语。after后跟v.­ing形式，land在此处意为“谋得”。
3．to　考查介词。owe ...to表示“把……归功于”，此处表示他把成功归因于为了实现目标坚持不懈的决心。
4．influenced　考查非谓语动词。连词and前后已经有两个独立的句子，再次出现的动词应该是非谓语，influence和本句主语he之间是逻辑上的动宾关系，故填过去分词作状语。
5．officially　考查副词。此处应用副词修饰和be动词构成的系表结构的介词短语。
6．which　考查定语从句。分析句子可知，空处引导定语从句，并在从句中作主语，故应用which引导非限制性定语从句。
7．was admitted　考查动词的时态和语态。此处表示“被录取”，故句子结构用被动语态的形式，注意admit需要双写t加­ed。
8．tries　考查名词复数。try在此处作名词，且由空前的two可知，应用其复数形式。
9．himself　考查代词。此处support这一动作的主语和宾语所指为同一人，故用反身代词。
10．chose　考查动词的时态。根据上文可知，此处描述的是过去的事情，故用一般过去时。

Dear Mike，
How's it going? I've just finished my final exams. I'm going to get a part­time job during the summer holiday. However, I don't know what job I should do. What do you think of me working as a waiter in a restaurant? As far as I know, you've done a lot of part­time jobs before, so I hope you can give me some advice on the possible jobs I can do and tell me what benefits I can gain from them.
Looking forward to your reply.
