There is no wrong time to prepare for your future.In fact,now may be the perfect time to work on your education and other career goals.It’s especially important that mothers have the tools to be able to care for their families.Earning a grant can lead to obtaining an important degree that can help land the perfect job for you.

One obvious area of importance is the technology industry.Digital and wireless capabilities continue to advance,and new technology is being developed constantly.Technological systems are often complex,which is why intelligent people are needed to help make them accessible to society.Several projections rank computer software engineering as one of the professions that is expected to rise greatly in the next five years.

Health and medicine is another job area that is always in high demand.In healthcare there is plenty of variety and opportunity.Occupational and physical therapists are important as well as their assistants.Mental health counselors are also expected to be in increased demand.There are many fields that don’t require a medical degree but rather specialized training is specific coursework.

Although the job outlook appears dark now,there is still reason to be optimistic.A great number of industries and service areas could see growth in the rebounding economy.One common thread among all these jobs is that you need the proper education.If you’re a mother,you may think your chance has passed but there are programs tailored just for you.Moms of all kinds can benefit from the Scholarships for Moms program started by former President Obama.The Obama administration intends to make going to school more appealing and easier to accomplish with the $5,000 scholarship.It’s an important step in helping moms earn the degrees they need.

 (2019·福建福州高一月考)

More than a hundred years ago,two boys were fishing in a small river.They sat in a heavy flat-bottomed boat,each holding a long bent pole in his hands and eagerly waiting for “a bite”.When they wanted to move the boat from one place to another they had to push against a long pole into the bottom of the stream.

“This is slow work.Robert,”said the older of the boys.“Yes,Christopher,and it’s hard work,too.” answered Robert.“I think there’s some better way of moving a boat.”

Christopher advised rowing it and Robert promised to make some oars.The next day Robert’s aunt heard a great noise in her house.The two boys were there,busily working.“What are you making,Robert?” she asked.He told his plan.His aunt laughed and said,“Well done! I hope you’ll succeed.”

After much work,they succeeded in making two paddle wheels.They were very rough,but strong and serviceable.They fixed each of these wheels to the end of an iron rod which they passed through the boat from side to side.The rod was bent in the middle.When the work was finished,the old fishing boat looked rather strange,with a paddle wheel on each side.The boys lost no time in trying it.One of the boys could guide the boat while the other turned the paddle wheels.

That night when Christopher went home,he told his father a wonderful story.“Robert Fulton planned the whole thing.”he said,“and I helped him make the paddles and put them on the boat.” When Robert Fulton became a man,he didn’t forget his experiment with the old fishing boat.He kept on thinking and working,until at last he succeeded in making a boat with paddle wheels that could be run by steam.He’s now honored as the inventor of the steamboat.

Ⅱ.七选五

 (2019·湖南邵阳高一质检)

Set a limit for yourself

In order to put the brain in overdrive,you can place restrictions on yourself while creating,which will prevent you from falling back on past successes.If you usually write 1,000-word short stories,try to create a story in under 500 words.Only use a small handful of chords in your song or colors in your design.　1　 

Re-conceptualize the problem

Researchers have noted that creative people tend to re-conceptualize problems more often before starting a creative task.As Einstein once said “If I had an hour to solve a problem,I’d spend 55 minutes thinking about the problem and five minutes thinking about solutions.”The best approach is to picture the intended audience of your next creative project.What inspires them?　2　 What are the problems they face but are rarely able to talk about? 

　3　 

Although negative moods can sometimes spur creativity,researchers have found that it is during strong positive moods that our best creative work is done.In fact,the feeling of love or even thinking about love was shown to best encourage creative thinking.

Daydream…after getting started

While research has shown that daydreaming can help with creativity,it is important to note that studies have revealed that daydreaming only works when you’ve already committed effort towards a project.The reason?Daydreaming can be beneficial because it allows for the incubation(孵化)of ideas.　4　 

　5　 

Research has shown that this “psychological distance” is an important part of being creative.For instance,one study found that people who thought their work would be used by someone else came up with more novel ideas.On the other hand,those who were told that they would be using their own creation later came up with less novel ideas.When creating,even for personal projects,think about how someone else will enjoy,use,and incorporate your creation into their lives.

1.　　　　　 　2.　　　　　 　3.　　　　 

4.　　　  5.　　　 

A.Stay positive all the time

B.Think about others

C.What might have been?

D.What are they sick of hearing about?

E.The limiting nature of the task can make you creative.

F.So be sure to get started on your project before drifting off.

G.Include your creation into their lives

答案：1.E　2.D　3.A　4.F　5.B　

解析：1.E项与本段的小标题“Set a limit for yourself”中的limit相呼应。

2.结合空格前的“What inspires them?”和空格后的“What are the problems they face…”可知,D项与上下文呼应。

3.只有A项与该标题下内容相呼应。

4.空格前面的“when you’ve already committed effort towards a project”中提到了project,与F中的“get started on your project”相呼应。

5.根据本段中的“When creating, even for personal projects, think about how someone else will enjoy,use,and incorporate your creation into their lives.”可知,建议你考虑他人将怎样享受,使用和将你的创造融入他们的生活中去,因此需要为他人着想。
