My child is so happy to be in your class this year. We know you care so much about your students. I want to tell you a
22、little bit about my child. Although he really loves to learn, he is somewhat anxious about being back in school again. - 5 - My child is thought to be gifted and that has brought some unexpected challenges to him and our family. To many people, being gifted means he will do very well in school, but
23、that hasnt always been true for him. He is just a kid thinking differently, and he sometimes struggles in school. Last year, school wasnt easy for him for a few reasons. He may be ahead a few grade levels in some subjects, but not in all subjects. He just doesnt do better in all areas all the time.
24、And although he may seem older than his years, he doesnt always behave like you would think he should. Im sure you know how gifted children can be emotionally immature that is exactly my kid. Also, he can be really intense in class when you are teaching one of his favorite topics. He may raise his h
25、and often and constantly talk about what he thinks about it. Ill apologize in advance because he will also likely challenge you on information or facts which he feels are not quite right especially when its a topic he is hooked on. He is not being impolite and he isnt just being a know-it-all, or a
26、show-off, he is really just very excited to be learning about a subject he feels strong about. He just gets carried away! Last year, he was teased about looking like a know-it-all in school by some of his classmates, which hurts him A LOT. Being teased is part of his fear of going back to school. He
27、 fears being called a show-off at school and he feels like he doesnt fit in. His teacher said he often kept to himself and chose to work alone. I know as a teacher, you are incredibly busy, but could you keep an eye out for anyone teasing him or if he seems to be keeping to himself too much? Lastly,
28、 his therapist（理疗师） mentioned that because of the teasing and maybe because he was bored last year in school, he is showing signs of becoming an underachiever. Please let me know if his grades start slipping. Thank you for taking the time to read and understand about my child. Dont hesitate to call
29、or email me if there are any problems with him at school. Believe me, we know very well how sensitive, emotional and intense he can be. I hope you have a wonderful school year! Sincerely, Mom of a Gifted Child 41. From the passage, we learn that the authors son _. A. fails to get along well with cla
30、ssmates B. has fallen behind the other students C. has lost interest in learning D. is rude to the teachers 42. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 mean?. A. He has been taken away from school. B. He is too excited to control himself. C. He is so absorbed in observing. D. He has been ov
31、erpraised. 43. How does the author feel about her child? A. Annoyed. B. Proud. C. Pleased. D. Worried. - 6 - 44. Why does the author write the letter? A. To ask the teacher to reduce childrens burden. B. To call on the school to stop school teasing. C. To suggest that his child has special needs. D.
32、 To explain how gifted her child is. B Job sharing refers to the situation in which two people divide the responsibility of one full-time job. The two people willingly act as part-time workers, enough hours between them to fulfill the duties of a full-time worker. If they each work half the job, for
33、 example, they each receive 50 per cent of the jobs wages, its holidays and its other benefits. Job sharing differs from conventional (常规的) part-time work because it occurs mainly in the more highly skilled and professional areas, which require higher levels of responsibility and employee commitment
34、. Job sharing should not be confused with the term work sharing, which refers to increasing the number of jobs by reducing the number of hours of each existing job, thus offering more positions to the growing number of unemployed people. Job sharing, by contrast, is not designed to address unemploym
35、ent problems; its focus, rather, is to provide well-paid work for skilled workers and professionals who want more free time for other activities. As would be expected, most job sharers are women. A survey carded out in 2018 by Britains Equal Opportunities Commission showed that 78 per cent of sharer
36、s were female, the majority of whom were between 20 and 40 years of age Subsequent studies have come up with similar results. Many of these women were re-entering the job market after having had children, but they chose not to seek part-time work because it would have meant lower status. Job sharing
37、 also offered an acceptable shift back into full-time work after a long absence. The necessity of close cooperation when sharing a job with another person makes the actual work quite different from conventional one-position jobs. However, to ensure a greater chance that the partnership will succeed,
38、 each person needs to know the strengths, weaknesses and preferences of his or her partner before applying for a position. Moreover, there must be a fair division of both routine tasks and interesting ones. In sum, for a position to be job-shared well, the two individuals must be well matched and mu
39、st treat each other as equals. 45. In what way is work sharing different from job sharing? A. Work sharing requires more working hours. B. Work sharing is aimed at creating more jobs. C. Work sharing provides a more satisfactory salary. D. Work sharing depends on the employers decision. - 7 - 46. Ac
40、cording to Paragraph 4, young mothers preferred job sharing to conventional part-time work mainly because _. A. they sought higher social status B. they were over ideal working ages C. they had difficulty finding full-time jobs D. they had to take care of both work and family 47 In job sharing the p
41、artners should _. A. enjoy equal social status B. have similar work experience C. keep in touch with each other D. know each other very well 48. The main purpose of the passage is to _. A. describe job sharing in general B. discuss how to provide more jobs C. recommend job sharing to women D. compar
42、e job sharing with work sharing C College graduation eventually means taking much of your attention in your first job search. This process can be challenging, especially for those students who had second thoughts about their chosen major and intended career pathor those who majored in a field not di
43、rectly connected to a specific career. If you are in one of these groups, fear not! Although your major, coursework, and academic performance are relevant to landing a job, they are not the only deciding factors on where you can work. So, just how important is your major to your job search? Some maj
44、ors are tied directly to specific career fields. For example, if you wish to become a teacher, you will likely have needed to complete an education program and eventually sit for a licensing exam. The same applies to majors in nursing. If you did not complete an accredited nursing program, you wont
45、be able to take the nursing licensure exam. In these cases, successfully completing a specific major is crucial to landing a job in the matching field. Other majors, however, are closely related to career paths but dont necessarily require a degree in the area. For example, students who majored in f
46、inance, math, or statistics may also have the necessary skills to be hired as an accountant. Although social work majors are most prepared to provide case management services to struggling populations, students who majored in psychology or sociology can be just as qualified. Lastly, there are many i
47、ndustries, such as professional sales, education (non-teaching positions), insurance, and customer service management, which hire new graduates from several more majors, looking for more generalized requirements. They may simply want to know the student has completed his or her bachelors degree, whi
48、ch demonstrates college-level math and writing, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills. Hopefully, as a college student, you were able to do more than just attend classes. Your non-academic experiences can be very influential on your future career as well. Did you work - 8 - during college, v
49、olunteer, or participate in a club or organization? If so, and if you enjoyed these activities, seek out related careers. If you volunteered with a non-profit organization such as a homeless or domestic violence shelter, seek out positions in social services related to case management or victim advocacy(辩护). You may qualify for a po
