Unit 6 I’m going to study computer science单元话题阅读理解练习【语篇来自二十一世纪学生英文报·试题原创】What do you want to be when you grow up?Zhong Fangrong could have chosen any college major she wanted. This girl from Hunan got one of the highest gaokao scores in the country this year. But she chose archaeology, one of the least popular majors in China. Her choice has led to heated discussion online.Some people think Zhong made a poor choice. They say she’ll have a hard time finding a job. But others have supported her, saying that people should not choose their majors based only on practical reasons.The most popular majors nowadays seem to be practical ones – that is, majors that will lead to lots of high-paying jobs. Majoring in arts or humanities seems to be discouraged.In the US, there are stereotypes about Asian and Jewish parents pressuring their kids to become doctors and lawyers, as these professions earn a lot of money. However, everyone has a different reason for picking a major. I, for instance, chose to study at the same university that my favorite English teacher studied at. It is true that some majors, such as philosophy and poetry, are seen as unpractical in the US. But some students pick them anyway. In fact, some students try two or even three different majors until they find the right fit. Journalism was my choice in the end. Sometimes I wonder how my life might have turned out if I’d chosen differently. But so far, it seems like it was the right choice.1．Zhong Fangrong chose________ as her major.A．archaeology B．education C．law D．arts2．Some people didn’t support Zhong because________.A．her major was difficult to learnB．finding a job was difficult for herC．she didn’t have high-paying jobsD．she didn’t like her major3．According to the author, ________ can be a popular major.A．archaeology B．artsC．humanities D．law4．Why do parents pressure their kids to become doctors and lawyers in the US?A．Because they are popular.B．Because they can earn a lot of money.C．Because their kids can have low-paying jobs.D．Because they are easy to learn.5．The author’s major is________.A．archaeology B．artsC．medical science D．journalism（2022秋·河北张家口·八年级统考期末）Do you want a job in the holidays?

As a soccer commentator, I will be able to watch a lot of soccer matches for free. I can watch the matches from the best position in the stadium. In my opinion, this would be the most pleasant job in the world to have. However, if I want to be an excellent soccer commentator, I need to learn many things. I need to observe (观察) how soccer commentators make real-time comments on the players and the situations happening on the field. While my dad and I watch soccer games on TV, we often observe how famous commentators like Huang Jianxiang (黄健翔) do their jobs. We once wrote down all of their comments (评论) in a notebook. I used to think that it was very hard to become a great commentator.

I think all soccer fans would want to become soccer commentators. Of course, it’s cool to make money while enjoying our favorite sport.
