玛特奥试着找一份新工作。语言解析你想试试吗？大学毕业后，你会选择什么职业？尝试一些不寻常的工作怎么样？这里有三份工作，可能会让你在聚会上有一些有趣的话题可聊!道德黑客

一个人是否可以在做黑客的同时也是一个诚实的人？是可以的。如果你从事道德黑客的职业，你必须充分利用你的计算机系统知识。你会在办公室工作，并收获高达20万美元的年薪。道德黑客和真正的黑客一样，要进入公司的电脑系统。不同的是，你要帮助公司找到并清除计算机系统中的故障。如果你对道德黑客这个职业感兴趣，计算机科学的学位是一个加分项。参考译文高尔夫球潜水员捡高尔夫球听起来是个又脏又累的工作。一个从水里捡高尔夫球的潜水员通常每周工作四天，每天捡大约4,000个球。他们一年的收入可以超过10万美元。如果你想成为一名高尔夫球潜水员，拥有潜水经验是一个绝对的优势。你还得有能力应对偶尔出现的深水猛兽。比如，在佛罗里达州，高尔夫球潜水员可能要与鳄鱼打交道！奶酪雕塑师如果你喜欢艺术，也喜欢食物，或许你应该尝试用奶酪制作雕塑的工作。如今，以食物为基础的雕塑在婚礼和派对上变得非常流行。而且如果你在工作的时候饿了，食物永远就在不远处。如果你觉得这是你梦想中的工作，你就需要有创意和良好的动手能力。有艺术学科的背景对于这份工作也会是一个优势。参考译文AReadthestatements.WriteT(true)orF(false).FTFTF1.Ethicalhackersworkintheirownhomes.2.Agolfballdiverworkseveryweekday.3.Anethicalhackerhelpscompanies.4.Golfballdiversarewell-paid.5.Youcanonlyfindfood-basedsculpturesinsupermarkets.Readthethreestatements.Matchthepeopletotheirjobs.BChoosethebestanswer.C1.Accordingtothetext,whatdorealhackersandethicalhackershaveincommon?a.Theybothworkinoffices.b.Theybothgetintothecomputersystemsofcompanies.c.Theybothearnhighsalaries.2.Doesanethicalhackerneedacertaintypeofqualification?a.Yes,always.b.No,never.c.Sometimesbutnotalways.bcChoosethebestanswer.C3.Ifyouwanttobeagolfballdiver,__________isaplus.a.divingexperienceb.adegreeincomputersciencec.abackgroundinanartisticdiscipline4.Whatisdangerousaboutagolfballdiver’sjob?a.Underwatercreatures.b.Thewaterissometimesnotdeepenoughtodivesafely.c.Youriskgettingtoocoldafterspendinghoursoutsideunderwater.aaChoosethebestanswer.C5.Whereisacheesesculptorlikelytowork?a.Atanartschoolorartcollege.b.Atweddingsorparties.c.Atadairyfarm.6.Accordingtothetext,whatisthemainperkofthecheesesculptor’sjob?a.Thehighsalaryandworkingconditions.b.You’renevertoofarawayfromfood.c.Thechancetotravelandmeetinterestingpeople.bb1.It’sagoodideatorainwaterforuseinthegarden.2.Weneedtoproblemslikepollutionandclimatechange.3.Thelibrarycankeep300,000books.4.Hetheletterandreadit.5.Ilivefromthecollege,soIneedtotravelbybuseveryday.6.Ican’tmyhouse.I’velostmykey.Completethesentenceswiththewordorexpressionsfromtheboxes.getintocollectfarawaydealwithuptogetintodealwithcollectuptopickedupDpickedupfarawayChoosethecorrectwordstocompletethesentences.E1.Thanksfortellingmeaboutthis.Ireallyvalueyour_________(honest/honesty).2.Theworkwasnotwell-paidanditwasalsoreally_________(tiring/tired).3.Idon’teatalotofsweets,butIdoenjoythe_________(occasional/occasionally)barofchocolate.4.Hewasaveryfamous_________(sculpture/sculptor)whoworkedinFranceinthe19thcentury.5.She’sso_________(creative/creativity)!Idon’tknowwhereshegetsherideasfrom.honestytiringoccasionalsculptorcreativeWorkinsmallgroups.Howmanyjobscanyouwriteforeachletterofthealphabet?FSample:careersadviser;dancer;environmentalmanager;fashiondesigner;gamestester;hotelreceptionist;interpreter;journalist;kitchenassistant;lecturer;medicalrepresentative;nurse;officemanager;photographer;qualitycontroltechnician;roadworker;salesrepresentative;teacher;upholsterer;vehiclebodyrepairer;waiter;X-rayinspector;Yogateacher;zookeeperWORDS&EXPRESSIONSbugcollectdefinitedisciplinediverethicalhacker

我很喜欢！虽然做导游很累，工作时间也很长，尤其是夏天，但我已经习惯了。卡尔：

那么，做导游每天的日常是怎么样的？莉娜：

嗯，每天都有点不同。有时候，我得带着我的团队在城市里走走看看，去参观景点。其他时候，我们会乘车游览，用这种方式看风景。卡尔：

你的团队里平时会有很多人吗？莉娜：

是的，通常有50人左右，所以我得小心不要落下谁!卡尔：

我想你需要很专注吧！那大家会不会问很多问题？莉娜：

会的，所以我需要做好充分的准备。幸运的是，我在导游培训中学到了很多东西，但有时也会遇到一些难以回答的问题。卡尔：
