The following jobs are expected to be in high demand in 2023. Clicking on the “Find jobs” link will take you to the list of current job postings and help you make career choices.
Nurse Practitioner
Average hourly wage: $56. 00
Nurse practitioners can perform many of the tasks that doctors do, such as creating treatment plans for patients and managing medical records. The big difference is that nurse practitioners cannot prescribe medications in most states. To become a nurse practitioner, you will need a graduate degree in nursing along with the appropriate licenses for the states in which you work.
Data Scientist

From car rental companies to telecommunication businesses, data scientists analyze the information to figure out the best ways for their businesses to be more successful.

It’s a big job that generally requires eight working hours a day and professional skills in mathematics.
Web Developer
Average hourly wage: $38. 00
Most people rely on the Internet to stay informed and connected with our communities. Web developers make sure those sites function properly while also updating them to include new functions that make them easier to use. Most of the work can be done remotely, which is favored by young people.
Choreographer(编舞师)
Average hourly wage: $20. 00
Maybe it’s the popularity of viral dance videos on TikTok that brings about the increasing demand in recent years. In addition to instructing trainees and performing on the stage and in the film, they work on smaller events such as weddings and other family gatherings.

“Why?” It’s a simple question that people ask Angela Madeline frequently. After all, she began a journey that very few people would ever attempt: walk around the world alone.
The thought of Madeline's journey did not start from a place of loss or personal crisis. She said, “I was searching for a deeper interaction with nature and people.” Walking would minimize her carbon footprint, plus the slow pace meant that she could fully immerse herself in nature, and gain insights into other cultures in a unique way.
She left her hometown of Bend, Oregon, on 2 May 2016 and headed into an adventure. Along the way, Madeline would suffer from heatstroke in the Australian desert and hear gunshots while camping in Turkey. “Still,” she said, “I didn’t stop because I was more afraid of not following my heart than I was of losing everything I owned and loved.”
Apart from that, her slow pace allowed her to be drawn deeply into other cultures. She wandered the tiny seaside villages along Italy Tyrthenian Sea, enjoying the lively atmosphere. In Vietnam, she was invited and offered food by an elderly woman to rest in her wooden shack at the peak for the night. She chose an experience of uncertainty and curiosity, in search of something she could never be certain to find: a sense of fulfillment and a deeper connection.
On 16 December 2022, Madeline’s pilgrimage (朝圣之旅)ended right where it started. For now, she’s working on a book, planning future journeys and creating more effective ways for women to find and express courage in their lives.
Whether a walk leads halfway around the world or just down the road, Madeline has shown the true worth of slowing down and giving more than we receive along the way.
24. Why did Madeline decide to start her journey?
A. To get closer to the world. B. To reduce carbon footprint.
C. To get rid of personal crisis. D. To slow down the pace of life.
25. What can we know about Madeline during the journey?
A. She was about to give up. B. She was helped by Italian locals.
C. She experienced various cultures. D. She enjoyed Australian coastal scenery.
26. Which of the following words can best describe Madeline?
A. Cautious and gentle. B. Tough and adventurous.
C. Ambitious and generous. D. Open-minded and humorous.
27. What's this text mainly about?
A. A new way to slow down life. B. A closer connection with the wild.
C. An unforgettable memory of a trip. D. A woman walking around the world.

When the European Commission’s LIFE program first brought together more than 20 organizations in 2002 to rescue the lynx(山猫), the species had all but disappeared. Widespread hunting and a virus had wiped out (彻底消灭) most of the Iberian Peninsula’s European rabbits, the lynx’s main prey(猎物).
Lynx breed in captivity(圈养)easily, however. Near one main release location, Iberian lynx have even learned to live in neighborhoods, in olive groves(橄榄树丛), and around highways.
“Thanks to the work carried out over the last 20 years, the number of lynx has increased greatly,” says Francisco Javier Salcedo Ortiz, regional coordinator of the Iberian lynx recovery plan.
But the cat’s not out of danger just yet. Its thousand-square-mile territory is a collection of five --soon to be seven--isolated(孤立的)groups. For Iberian lynx to fully recover, they must be able to travel from one group to another, ensuring the species’s long-term health by diversifying gene pools. That’s why the next stage of the LIFE project will focus on creating at least 10 6-square-mile areas of rabbit-rich habitat, which act as passageways among the existing lynx groups. Scientists selected these habitats based on predictions of where lynx are most likely to travel. For instance, lynx prefer to take the shortest paths through undeveloped habitats, and avoid broken-up areas of farmland.
The cat is popular, even among farmers and landowners, but a few view lynx as pests and occasionally will poison them for supposedly harming domestic animals. Illegal killings make up nearly 25 percent of annual lynx deaths on the peninsula(半岛), the second highest cause of non-natural death, after vehicle strikes. That’s why education is the “best tool to improve the lynx population,” says Maribel García Tardío, lead technician for Andalusia’s Iberian lynx recovery plan. She and her colleagues regularly meet with landowners and hunters, explaining how lynx rarely kill larger domestic animals.
The Iberian lynx is one of 33 small-cat species, many of which are endangered or threatened. These animals have long been eclipsed by their bigger cousins such as lions and tigers, but lately people have begun to recognize the world’s little-known cats.
28. Which of the following words can best describe the Iberian lynx according to paragraph 2?
A. Active. B. Adaptable. C. Funny. D. Dangerous.
29. What is the aim of the next stage of the LIFE project?
A. To free existing lynx from hunger.
B. To set up a gene pool of existing lynx.
C. To turn some farmland into lynx habitat.
D. To help existing lynx connect with each other.
30. What does Maribel García Tardío do to increase the lynx population?
A. She educates landowners and hunters regularly.
B. She works to reduce vehicle strikes in lynx habitats.
C. She suggests separating lynx from large domestic animals.
D. She clears up the misunderstanding between landowners and hunters.
31. What does the underlined part “eclipsed by” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Confused with. B. Protected from. C. Keeping step with. D. Living in the shadow of.
D
Accents are a sign of belonging and something that separates communities. Yet we can probably think of people who seem to have lost their accent and of others whose accent stays firmly in place. Given the personal and social importance of how someone speaks, why would anyone's accent change?
A conscious or subconscious(无意识的)desire to fit in can influence the way you speak. If someone moves from Australia to America to work, for example, they will probably at least change their accent in order to get a better sense of belonging. This may be out of a need or desire to be more clearly understood and to be accepted in a new community. They might also want to avoid ridicule for the way they speak.
For people whose accents do shift, the way they speak may be less important to their sense of identity, or their identity with a social or professional group may be more pressing. Even before we are born, we are exposed to the speech patterns of those around us. We progress through various stages of speech development that result in us having speech patterns similar to those around us.
For others whose accent does not seem to change, it could be because they feel safe in their identity, and their accent is much part of that identity — or that keeping the difference is valuable to them.
Meanwhile, brain damage may result in foreign accent syndrome (FAS), which results from physical changes that are not under the speaker’s control. Suffering from FAS, speakers may lose the ability to speak at all or experience strange changes in the way they pronounce. In some cases, listeners might look down upon a person with FAS as they believe them to be foreigners. It’s no wonder many people unconsciously protect themselves by adapting their speech to those around them.
32. What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The desire to fit in. B. The change of career.
C. The adjustment of accents. D. The influence on language.
33. What makes people choose to change their accents?
A. The result of brain damage. B. Their strong sense of identity.
C. Their desire to learn about locals. D. The need to adapt to new environment.
34. What can we know about the people suffering from FAS?
A. They may be taken as foreigners. B. They can not help making a sound.
C. They suffer from emotional changes. D. They may change accents to gain respect.
35. What's the author's purpose in writing this text?
A. To explain the loss of accents. B. To introduce the history of accents.
C. To analyze why accents are lost or kept. D. To show the significance of accent changes.

67.阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
On a late afternoon, Brandon finished feeding his cows on the farm and decided to go back with his two sons, Louie, 6, and Everett, 3. As they headed for the house, the two boys ran ahead of their father. Suddenly Brandon was aware he’d forgotten to close the door of the barn (牲口棚). He told the boys to wait for him at the gate and returned to lock it.When he was at the gate minutes later, he saw only his youngest son.
“Where’s Louie? ”he shouted.
“He fell in the hole!” Everett said.
Brandon quickly realized what had happened. No, he thought. Louie can barely swim! He ran to the well and heard Louie crying. Immediately, he jumped in.
Somehow Brandon managed to catch a pipe that ran down the side of the well, which slowed his fall and kept him from crushing (压伤) his son.
Finally, Brandon hit the freezing water at the bottom of the well. He popped his head out of the water and grabbed Louie, who was panicking and trying to stay afloat in water that was too deep for either of them to stand up in. Knowing they could stay in the water for only so long, Brandon lifted his son onto his chest as he pushed his back against the narrow walls for support.
“All right, Dad, you can pull us out now,” Louie said.
If only it were that easy. There was no way he could climb out. The pipe that he’ d caught during his fall was too slippery (滑的) to be of any use. There was only one way out.
Seeing Everett looking down at them from the top of the well, Brandon shouted, Everett, you’re going to have to be a big boy and save us. Run to the road and stand by the mailbox until someone stops. Tell them we need help.
Everett did as he was told. He stood alone by the side of the road, waving to stop someone.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；

After a while, Chris and Mark, nearby farmers, were driving by the farm.___________________
