阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
What should you think about in trying to find your career(
职业
)? Y
ou are probably better at
some school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A
boy
who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career. A
girl who spells well and likes
English
may
be
good
at
office work.
So
it
is
important
to
know
the subjects
you
do
well
in
at
school. On the other hand, you may not have any specially strong or weak subjects but your records
show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they
may have indirect value. A
knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one
of your good subjects you will have
learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that
can be useful in many jobs.
Y
our school may have taught you skills, such as typing or technical drawing, which you can
use in your work. Y
ou may be good at metal work or cookery and look for a job where you can
improve these skills.
If you have had a part
－
time job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from
it. If nothing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to
get on with older workers. Y
ou may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example.
Just as important, you may become interested in a particular
industry or career you see from the
inside in a part
－
time job.
Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. Y
ou may be all thumbs(
母指
) when
you handle tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is bitter to
face any weaknesses than to pretend they do not exist. Y
our school record, for instance, may not be
too good, yet it is an important part of your background. Y
ou should not be apologetic about it but
instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work.

“High tech” and “state of the art” are two expressions that describe very modern technology.
High
tech
is
just
a
shorter
way
of
saying
high
technology.
And
high
technology
describes
any
invention, system or device that uses the newest ideas or discoveries of science and engineering.
What
is
high
tech?
A
computer
is
high
tech.
So
is
a
communications
satellite.
A
modern
manufacturing(
制造
(
业
)
的
) system is surely high tech.
High tech became a popular expression in the United States during the early 1980’s. Because
of improvements in technology, people could buy many new kinds of products in American stores,
such as home computers, microwave ovens(
微波炉
), etc.
“State of the art” is something that is as modern as possible. It is a product that is based on the
very
latest
methods
and
technology.
Something
that
is
“state
of
the
art”
is
the
newest
possible
design or product of a
business or industry. A
state of the art television set, for example, uses the
most modern electronic design and parts. It is the best that one can buy
.
“State of the art” is not a new expression. Engineers have used it for years, to describe the best
and most modern way of doing something.
Millions
of
Americans
began
to
use
the
expression
in
the
late
1970’s.
The
reason was the
computer revolution. Every computer company claimed(
声称
)
that its computers were “state of the
art.”
Computer
technology
changes
so
fast
that
a
state
of
the
art
computer
today
might
be
old
tomorrow. The
expression
“state
of
the
art”
has
become
as common
and
popular
as
computers
themselves. Now all kinds of products are said to be “state of the art.”

The temperature of your body should always be the same if you are fine, no matter whether
the weather is hot or cold. That is why the doctor tests your temperature with a thermometer when
you are sick. Normally, your body temperature is ninety- eight point six degrees Fahrenheit(
华氏的
).
If it is higher than that, it is a sure sign that something is wrong with your body.
Y
our
body
keeps
the
same
temperature
all
the
time,
because
it
balances(
平衡
)
the
heat
it
produces and the heat it gives off. It is always burning up food and producing heat. It can produce
heat faster when the body needs or gives off heat faster when the body becomes too warm. Let’s
see how this works.
The heat of your body is given off chiefly through the skin. When you feel cold, your skin is
tight
and shows “goose flesh”. When you feel chilly(
寒冷的
), you must jump around to keep warm.
Then
your
muscles
begin
to
work,
burn
up
fuel
and
produce
more
heat.
It
is
not
pleasant
to
shiver(
颤抖
), so you usually prefer warming up by taking exercise, or put on more clothes to keep
warm.
When you get warm, the skin is loose and soft. It is so supplied with blood that heat is given
off rapidly. If you get too warm, you begin to sweat and more body heat is used in evaporating(
蒸
发
) the moisture(
水分
) in your body. In warm weather or warm rooms, you wear less clothing, so
that heat can be given off freely. Y
ou prefer less exercise because your body is warm enough, and
the extra heat produced by taking too much exercise makes you uncomfortable.
Now you see why you feel differently in different kinds of weather. In summer, when it is hot,
you feel tired and lazy. Y
ou do not care to work of play, but enjoy lying down and doing nothing.
When you get out of doors in winter, the cold air makes you feel lively. Y
ou want to run and play.
