    What do you want to be when you grow up? A teacher? A
    doctor? How about an ice cream taster?
    Yes, there really is a job where you can get paid to taste ice
    cream. Just ask John Harrison, an " Official Taste Tester" for the
    past 21 years. Testing helps manufacturers to be sure of a product's
    quality. During his career Harrison has been responsible for appro-
    ving large quantities of sweet ice cream--as well as for developing
    over 75 flavors(味道).
    Some people think that it would be easy to do this job;after all,
    you just have to like ice cream,right? No-there's more to the job
    than that,says Harrison,who has a degree in chemistry. He points out
    that a dairy or food-science degree would be very useful to someone
    wanting a career in this "cool"field.
    In a typical morning on the job, Harrison tastes and assesses
    60 ice cream samples. He lets the ice cream warm up to about
    12°F. Harrison explains, " You get more flavor from warmer ice
    cream, which is why some kids like to stir it, creating ice-cream
    soup. "
    While the ice cream warms up, Harrison looks over the samples
    and grades each one on its appearance. "Tasting begins with
    the eyes," he explains. He checks to see if the ice cream is attractive
    and asks himself, "Does the product have the colour expected
    from that flavor?" Next it's time to taste!
    Continuing to think up new ideas, try out new flavors and test
    samples from so many kinds of ice cream each day keeps Harrison
    busy but happy-working at one cool job.
    1. What is John Harrison's job?
    A. An official.
    B. An ice cream taster.
    C. A chemist.
    D. An ice cream manufacturer.
    2. According to John Harrison, to be qualified in the" cool field", it is helpful to _______.
    A. keep a diary of work
    B. have a degree in related subjects
    C. have new ideas every day
    D. find out new flavors each day
    3. What does Harrison do first when testing ice cream?
    A. He stirs the ice cream.
    B. He examines the colour of the ice cream.
    C. He tastes the flavor of the ice cream.
    D. He lets the ice cream warm up.
    4. Which of the following is probably the best title of the passage?
    A. Tasting with Eyes.
    B. Flavors of Ice Cream.
    C. John Harrison's.
    D. One Cool Job.

  • 日常生活类阅读

日常生活类阅读的概念:

日常生活这一话题主要涉及人们衣食住行等方面的活动。这一话题的选材主要针对人们日常的工作,生活以及学习情况。做这一类题时,最主要的是要把握好人物的活动内容,时间和地点。


日常生活类阅读题答题技巧:

【题型说明】
该类文章内容涉及到人们的言谈举止、生活习惯、饮食起居、服饰仪表、恋爱婚姻、消遣娱乐、节日起源、家庭生活等。文章篇幅短小,追根溯源,探索各项风俗的历史渊源,内容有趣。命题也以送分题为主,如事实细节题、语义转换题、词义猜测题和简单推理判断题等。虽然这类文章读起来感觉轻松,试题做起来比较顺手,但绝不能掉以轻心。因为稍不留神,就会丢分。   
【备考提醒】
为了保证较高准确率,建议同学们做好以下几点:   
1、保持正常的考试心态。笔者在教学中发现,越是容易的试题,同学们越是容易失分。为什么呢?因为在这种情况下,同学们极易产生麻痹思想,认为题目好做,就不引起高度重视,于是思维不发散、不周密。而命题人就是利用同学们的这一弱点,设计陷阱题。所以,无论试题难易与否,我们都要保持正常的考试心态。试题容易,不欣喜;试题难,不悲观。   
2、根据前面讲到的方法,认认真真、细细心心做好事实细节题。   
3、做好语义转换题。这类题是根据英语中一词多义和某些词语在文中能表达一定的修辞意义的原则而设计的。要求同学们解释某生词的含义,确定多义词或短语在文中的意思,确认文中的某个代词所指代的对象,或者对英语中特有的表达、格言、谚语进行解释。这种题要求同学们一定要根据上下文猜测词义或理解句子,切不可望文生义。   
4、做好简单推理判断题。简单推理判断题要以表面文字为前提,以具体事实为依据进行推理,做出判断。这种推理方式比较直接,只要弄清事实,即可结合常识推断出合理的结论。
