4 Summer Jobs to Get Paid and Take a Break
Camp counsellor(辅导员)
Most kids head off to camp during the summertime, and if you're past the typical
age of being a camper, relive your youth by becoming a summer camp counsellor. You can
enjoy participating in activities, planning events, and partaking in arts and crafts.
It's one of the best summer jobs because it also builds your leadership skills while
you earn extra money. Depending on your schedule, you can work to fit your needs. The
average starting pay is $10.5 an hour.
英语试题 第3页 (共12页)Lifeguard
Spending time on the water is something many people do during the summer. And if
you're good at swimming, then being a lifeguard is a great option for you. The hours
are flexible, and the pay is great, with the average hourly rate at $11.50.
Amusement park employee
An amusement park is a great place to work during the summertime. There are a
variety of positions you can get hired for—from ride operator to food service to
booth tender—and the average starting pay is $10 an hour. The hours are flexible
and negotiable depending on where you decide to work: the larger the park, the more
employees they’ll have, which could mean fewer hours they'll need you to cover.
Dog walker
If you're looking for a relaxing job, being a dog walker could be the right choice
for you. Dog walking hours and pay are easily negotiable, as you can simply discuss with
the dog's owner what your availability is, when they need you, and what your pay rate
is.Getting some exercise with a furry friend will feel more like a relaxing pastime than
a job.And if you wish to continue being a dog walker, it's the job that's easiest to keep
year-round.

In 2023, the UK SpoGomi competition was scheduled for August, with the world cup
in Tokyo in November. I formed my team with Alex Winship, and my brother Jonny.
SpoGomi is a sport involving litter-picking by teams of three. Teams collect litter in given
areas within a strict time limit, scoring point s for the weight of collected items, with some
items awarded more points than others. One gram of cigarette butts is worth three points versus
only 0.1 per gram for burnable rubbish. The team with the most point s wins.
英语试题 第 4 页 (共12页)Initially we were drawn to taking part because of the prize of a trip to Japan.
There were about 20 teams in the UK competition, which took place in London's Hackney
marshes. We won by only 33 points, which is equivalent to just one glass bottle.
We were then heading for the world cup. The competition was intense. After the first
half, Japan came top and we were second. My muscles were aching and I felt completely
worn out from the heat of Tokyo on a sunny day. I didn't have much more energy, and
Iremember Alex and Jonny saying the same, but we had this feeling of being on the edge
of something amazing. We had to just keep pushing. We pulled ahead in the second half
while carrying several kilos of litter over two miles at a time. We ended up coming
first,ahead of Japan, with 57 kg of rubbish collected.
I wouldn't have been someone who would have picked up litter off the street. At the
early stages of our training, we were so bad at finding litter. Then, just after the
London competition, on the way home, we saw so much. We were just much more aware of
it.Once you're drawn into SpoGomi, your attitude towards litter and how you contribute
completely changes—it certainly has for us.
24. What can we learn about SpoComi?
A. It is a sport to pick up rubbish. B. It has particularly strict rules.
C. It is a team consisting of 3. D. It sets limits to collected items.
25. What was the result of the London competition?
A. The result was controversial.
B. No team entered the world cup.
C. The author's team had a narrow victory.
D. The author's team had an absolute advantage.
26. How did the author feel in the second half of the world cup?
A. Nervous but hopeful. B. Indifferent and bored.
C. Exhausted but determined. D. Discouraged and uninterested.
27. What is presented in the last paragraph?
A. Providing tips on picking litter.
B. Showing desire for SpoGomi training.
C. Advocating devotion to the world cup.
D. Encouraging engagement in SpoGomi.
C
Vocal cords(声带) can easily get damaged by stress, infections, or overuse. It is
not just overenthusiastic performers who are at risk of injuring their voice-boxes—
according to a study, 30% of the population will experience a voice disorder at some
point in their life.
英语试题 第5页 (共12页)ln a study published in the journal Nature Communications, a team of UCLA engineers
have invented a patch-like (片状) device that can be worn on the skin outside the throat
to help people with voice disorders speak.
Even though the team's device is an early prototype, it has the potential to offer a
substantial improvement on current alternatives. When a person loses his voice today, the
easiest fix is to resort to typing, texting, or writing notes to communicate. Typing can
be slow and inconvenient, and writing notes is only possible in good lighting. More advanced
solutions require special training to use, and surgical interventions are often invasive.
Apa tch would theoretically be able to clear all these hurdles.
The tiny pa tch consists of a self-powered sensing component, which detects and changes
signals generated by the throat muscle movements into high-accuracy, analyzable electrical
signals, which are then translated into speech signals using a machine-learning algorithm,
and an actuation component, which turns those signals into voice expression.The patch was
tested on eight healthy adults who pronounced five sentences (including:“Hope your
experiments are going well!”,“Merry Christmas!”and“I love you!”) aloud or in silence,
and its accuracy was more than 90%.
There is a way to go yet. For now the device can only recognise the five phrases it
was trained on. Plus, individual differences in vocal cords means the algorithm has to be
personalised to each user. To make it practical at scale, the researchers will need to
collect a lot more data.
28. What can be inferred from the first two paragraphs?
A. The device can be fixed in a person's body.
B. The device may be a fix to voice disorders.
C. Most people are influenced by voice injury.
D. Performers have a high risk of voice disorders.
29. How does the author introduce the advantage of the patch?
A. By listing data.
B. By giving examples.
C. By making comparison.
D. By analyzing causes and effects.
30. Which aspect of the device is mentioned in paragraph 4?
A. Its application. B. Its principle.
C. Its challenge. D. Its purpose.
31. What is the author's attitude toward the device?
A. Unclear. B. Dismissive. C. Doubtful. D. Supportive.

Unretirement: older people return to paid employment
The disappearance of 565,000 mostly older people from the UK's labour force was one
of the problematic effects of Covid. In other countries, employment levels recovered
more quickly to pre-2020 levels, making the UK exceptional. But while evidence in the
past few months points to a change of this trend—the rise of“unretirement”—there is
no room for relief.
Government initiatives to address the issue have achieved little. The Treasury came
up with the idea of“returnerships”, a variant of the skills training aimed at persuading
mature people back to workplaces. But in reality this is not much more than a new label
for existing training. Meanwhile, fewer than one in 20 of participants in the
government's“skills training camps”—courses intended to equip jobseekers for the
opportunities in their area—are aged over 55.
Mel Stride, the work and pensions secretary, championed the idea of over-50s
delivering takeaways, and doing other jobs more readily associated with younger
workers.Age should not be a barrier to anyone willing and able to do this kind of work.
But more importantly, government ministers should extend employment beyond low-wage
private sector vacancies(空缺) to labour shortages in health, education and social care
—where umemployment problem is serious.
Revealed in one survey, descriptions of returning to employment are highly
variable.Some did so because they were struggling with the rising cost of living. Others
found that they missed the company of co-workers, wanted to make a contribution to family
finances or needed“a purpose in life”.
The 26.5% of adults aged 50 to 64 who are economically inactive—neither working nor
seeking work—is still too high. The coexistence of high levels of economic inactivity with
key worker shortages in vital areas such as teaching remains hugely problematic. But rising
employment levels can be seen as part of a delayed return to normality. And Ministers still
need to better target policies to encourage economically inactive 50– to 64-year-olds back
to work.
32. Why do the UK government plans have little effect?
A. Mature people are unwilling to retire.
B. The government lacks related equipment.
C. The skills training isn't essentially changed.
D. The government doesn't provide professional training.
英语试题 笛 7 页 (共12页)33. What should the government do for unretirement?
A. Strengthen association with younger workers.
B. Widen employment opportunities.
C. Offer diverse training courses.
D. Predict the potential problems.
34. What was a reason for unretirement according to the survey?
A. Financial struggle. B. Contribution to society.
C. Family's expectations. D. Co-workers' encouragement.
35. What is the text?
A. A news report. B. A book review.
C. A scientific report. D. A diary entry.

Is It OK to Be Unhappy?
Many people might say that you should always be happy, but is it okay to allow
yourself time when sadness may prevail over happiness? We'll explore how sadness
offers people opportunities for self-reflection and why people should appreciate
their sorrow.
What is unhappiness?
Many words are used to express sadness: suffering, misery, sorrow,
pain, and more.It often results from other feelings like guilt, grief,
anxiety, hopelessness, or anger. 36 It may differ from a person to
another but it could change how you physically feel—a stomachache,
headache, or difficulty sleep disorders.
37
Lots of people are growing unhappy due to mental health issues. Here are lists
of situations:havingproblems with relationships, havingtroubleathome(eg.
violenceorfinancial issues), having trouble at school or work, comparing self to
others, losing a loved one and being self-critical.
Is it OK for a person to be unhappy?
Everyone has different emotions: some are good while others can be negative. In
other words, all people have feelings that are always changing in some way—and they
happen for a reason!So is it OK to feel sadness? 38
Sadness is a natural part of life.
It is okay to be unhappy. Being sad doesn't mean you are not coping with the
situation. 39 Learning to recognize sad emotions can make you adapt better, accept
more easily,and persevere when things may be too hard at times.
英语试题 第 8 页 (共12页)Things will eventually get better.
Keep in mind your problems will not last forever and will eventually pass too! There is no
right way to let go of sadness but what is not a secret is that the first step is the
acknowledgment and acceptance of the pain you are feeling. It could be a lot but talking to
someone you trust can be helpful. 40 Eat nutritious food, exercise regularly, and get enough
sleep.
A. Why are people sad?
B. Take good care of yourself.
C. The answer is a definite yes.
D. So what does it feel like to be sad?
E. How can people get rid of sadness?

Kiss marks on the mirror
Jessica,a clever cleaner, worked in an all-girls university.
One day, she was quietly doing one of her jobs—cleaning the bathroom—when she
noticed a bunch of kiss marks on the mirror.
She got angry at the sight of it. But she decided not to dwell on her negative
emotion and do something actionable instead. She was hopeful for the girls seemed smart
and reasonable.She wiped away the kiss marks with cleaning cloth and a sponge and left
instructions on a piece of paper: Please don’t leave kiss marks on the mirror.
Lipstick stains(口红印) are difficult to clean.
The next day, Jessica went inside the bathroom to clean. But much to her
disappointment,she saw a bunch of kiss marks on the mirror again. She got angry and
went running to the principal's office to report the incident. Upon learning of the
incident, the principal got angry at the students. He gave them a strong warning to
not leave kiss marks on the bathroom's mirror. Jessica overheard the principal when he
scolded the students. She felt relieved. She figured the girls wouldn't leave kiss
marks on the mirror again. She was wrong.
英语试题 第11页 (共12页)The next day, it was as if nothing had happened. When she went inside the bathroom,she
found kiss marks on the mirror. Worse, there were more of them compared to the ones she
found during the previous days. Angrily, she stormed out of the bathroom and went straight
to the principal's office. She was mad at the girls for their stubbornness and also at
the principal for not punishing the girls’actions.“The girls are hard-headed. Based on
experience, they don't easily follow my orders. Wait it out. They'll grow out of
this,”said the principal.
Rather than say things out of anger and things that would probably get her fired,
Jessica walked out to get some fresh air, and then back to the bathroom, staring at the
cleaning tools. She was sick and tired of the situation.

To improve students’mental well-being, a lecture with the theme of“How
toRelieve Stress”was held last Friday in our school.
The lecture which was given by Professor Smith, a mental health expert,
involved two sections. At the beginning, he talked about students'present mental
health, analyzed the causes and offered some practical suggestions, which gave
the students a deep insight into how to relieve their stress. Then, students
took interactive part in the question-and-answer section, creating an active
and lively atmosphere.
The lecture was well received. Most students claimed that they learned some
ways to maintain healthy condition and anticipated more follow-ups.
