Hot Spots for Retirees to Start Their Encore Career
Encore Career: Vocational School Instructor
Retire in: Los Angeles, CA
Ever since IBM CEO Ginni Rometty coined the term “new collar” to describe well-paid jobs that require
specific skills but not necessarily a degree, vocational schools have made a serious comeback. Apparently instructors
are in short supply in sunny L.A., where there are 13 jobs at vocational schools for every applicant on the market.
This is a great opportunity for skilled retirees since, unlike teaching at a public school that requires a state certificate,
the only requirement here is that you be a seasoned expert in your field.
Encore Career: Business Consultant
Retire in : Miami, FL
Consulting is a great option for a retired business professional looking to make their own hours, be their own
boss, and earn as much or as little as needed to maintain their standard of living. For every consultant in Miami right
now there are 13 businesses hoping to hire them. There's even greater demand here than in Washington D.C., which
is typically considered the consulting capital of the world.
Encore Career: Tourist Wrangler
Retire in :Austin , TX
As the economy continues to boom and more Americans have extra income to spend, the tourism industry has
taken off. This is particularly true in Austin, TX, where there were astonishing 36 tourism jobs for every applicant in
July. Between four-star hotels, the noisy rock n' roll scene, and a new food culture, Austin is the place to be if you
want to work in service industry.
Encore Career: Supporter of the Arts
Retire in: Charleston, SC
If you're a Baby Boomer with a degree in the arts, now could be the perfect time to revisit your passion for
creativity., especially if you also want to live in the center of southern charm. Between the 14 art galleries on King
Street in Old Town, an abundance of acting companies and theaters, and music festivals, it's not surprising there were
25 jobs for every arty applicant iii Charleston.

Captain John Bunch loves to go fishing. In fact, Bunch loves fishing so much that he became a professional
fishing guide decades ago and has remained one ever since. There is something, however, that Bunch loves even
more. That is his country and the men and women who join the army to protect it. Ever since Bunch met a young
soldier in 2005, who wanted to go on a fishing trip before he left the army, the Florida native has offered over 1 200
fishing trips to veterans(退伍军人), with all expenses paid.
And Bunch’s efforts to give back to those who have served their nation go even much further. Inspired by that
fishing trip 11 years ago, he founded Operation Open Arms, which has since helped nearly 3 400 US troops and
given out more than $12 million in direct benefits with his charity. Operation Open Arms also provides free
weddings, vacations, and more leisurely activities to veterans, and can rely on a network of over 300 businesses and
individual partners to get former soldiers anything they might need upon returning home from army.
The former marine’s heartwarming generosity is a result of his own experiences in the military and the pride he
has for his country. "I do this because I love my country and I do this because America is the greatest country in the
world," he told NBC’s Today Show. Bunch’s unwavering commitment goes so far that he once turned down an
invitation from then-President George W. Bush, because he had already scheduled a fishing trip with one of his
veterans. Even the military has recognized Bunch’s work of love, and earlier this year honored him and his
organization with the Outstanding Civilian Service Award and the Army’s most prestigious civilian award.
4.What caused John Bunch to offer free fishing trips to veterans?
A.A young soldier’s desire to go on a fishing trip.
B. Working as a professional fishing guide.
C. Having served in the army.
D. Growing up in Florida.
5.What is Paragraph Two mainly about?
A. The achievements Operation Open Arms has made.
B. How Operation Open Arms was founded.
C. Activities Captain John Bunch has joined.
D. The missions of Operation Open Arms.
6.Which can best describe John Bunch’s personality?
A. Ambitious and talented. B. Responsible and patient.
C. Honest and determined. D. Warm-hearted and generous.
7.John Bunch didn’t accept George W. Bush’s invitation because .
A. he thought little of him B. he didn’t want to see him
C. he had to take care of business D. he wanted to stay with veterans

It's common that a Japanese-American bows on the phone-but only in Japanese. Behaviors and manners can
become so routine that they appear even when there's no need for them.Those who are bilingual and bi-cultural know
first-hand that how we behave can depend on what language we are speaking.Experts have shown that who you are
in the moment can depend on the language you are using at that time.
This is because when you have an experience,the language you are using becomes associated with it.For bilingual
people,this means certain memories are more closely associated with one language than the other-a phenomenon
called language-dependent memory.For example,a childhood memory is more likely to be remembered when the
language spoken during that childhood event is spoken again.How we think and feel can thus change depending on what language we are using.For example,people who are
bilingual have an intensified stress response when listening to the words of scolding in a native language.This may
be,in part,because our early memories associated with learning a"bad”word or being scolded by our parents
happened in our native language.
Because emotions play a key role in how we make decisions,people are often more sensible when making choices
in the less emotional foreign language.When asked whether they would be willing to give one person's life to save a
group,people who speak more than one language are much more likely to say"yes" when answering in a foreign
language.The unpleasant feelings that can prevent us from making difficult choices are reduced when we're using a
non-native language.
The Language we speak has an influence on how we think,feel,and even behave.In a way,knowing different
languages can provide people with a variety of views through which to see the world.
8.Why is the example of Japanese-American mentioned?
A.To show the influence of culture is huge.
B.To show bowing is Japanese people's routine.
C.To show Japanese people are polite on the phone.
D.To show one's use of language affects one's behavior.
9.What does the underlined word"intensified"in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.Worse. B.Better .C.Increased. D.Limited.
10.When a person speaks a foreign language,he is likely to
A.make a sound decision
B.prevent himself from danger
C.be influenced by other people
D.have difficulty making decisions
11.What is the best title for the text?
A.You Are Actually What You Are Speaking
B.Native Languages Make People Speak More
C.Different Languages Have Different Influences
D.Speak Your Native Language in Other Countries
D
Hundreds of years ago, news was carried from place to place by people on foot or by horse. It took days, weeks
and sometimes months for people to receive news. Now it is possible to send words and pictures around the world in
seconds. Billions of people learn about news stories of their own country and all over the world every day, either by
watching TV or reading newspapers.
Newspapers have been an important part of everyday life since the 18th century. Many countries have
hundreds of different newspapers. How do newspaper editors decide which news stories to print? Why do they print
some stories and not others? What makes a good newspaper story?
Firstly, it is important to report news stories. TV stations can report news much faster than newspapers. Yet,
newspapers give more about the same story. They may also look at the story in another way, or they may print
completely different stories to those on TV.
Secondly, a news story has to be interesting and unusual. People don’t want to read stories about everyday life.
As a result, many stories are about some kind of danger and seem to be “bad” news. For example, newspapers never
print stories about planes landing safely; instead they print stories about plane accidents.
Another factor ( 因 素 ) is also very important in many news stories. Many people are interested in news in
foreign countries, but more prefer to read stories about people, places and events in their own country. So the stories
on the front page in Chinese newspapers are usually very different from the ones in British, French and American
newspapers.12. According to the passage, how do people learn about news stories in the world now?
A.They carry news stories and tell others from place to place on foot or by horse.
B.They tell each other what they have seen with their eyes.
C.They watch TV or read newspapers.
D.They listen to the radio every day.
13. The difference between newspaper stories and TV news reports is that .
A.people can learn more about the same news story from a newspaper
B.people can read the news story more quickly in a newspaper
C.people can read news stories in other countries
D.people can read news stories about their own country
14. To make a good newspaper story, how many factors does the passage talk about?
A.Two. B.Three. C.Five. D.Six.
15. According to the passage, which of the following can you most possibly watch on TV?
A.Your teacher has got a cold.
B.The bike in front of your house is lost.
C.You often play football with your friends after school.
D.A tiger in the city zoo has run out and hasn’t been caught.

The Slow Food Movement started in Rome, Italy in 1986. When a new McDonalds was opening near a
beautiful historic place, some people stood outside the restaurant and shouted, “We do not want fast food, we want
slow food!”
16 One day Carlo Petrini went to a restaurant to eat a traditional meal. But the food didn’t taste the same
as he remembered. He learned that the peppers were shipped from abroad because the prices were low. This deeply
concerned Carlo.
Carlo wanted people to care about where their foods came from and how their foods made their culture special.
So he started a group to encourage this idea. It soon became the Slow Food Movement. 17
First, what is good food? Good food is fresh. The vegetables are eaten close to the place where the y are grown.
The fish hasn’t been sitting for days before it is eaten. Good food is seasonable. 18 Good food satisfies the senses.
It should look good, smell good and taste good. And finally, good food is cultural food. Each country has special
foods that make it different.
Second, food should be clean. Today, there are great concerns about the way people grow and produce food.
Farmers use chemicals to kill insects and feed plants. But the chemicals can also harm the natural environment
around farms. 19 Clean food means food that does not harm our bodies or the environment.
And third, food should be fair. 20 All people should be able to purchase healthy food. The people who
grow and make food should be paid fairly for their work. They should work in safe, healthy conditions.

drugs in his car, I came across Robert in a fancy restaurant. I was 30 to respect people’s privacy and

“I don’t have any 33 if you remember this...” and I told him the story. “I just wanted to tell you that it

Sara Savick remembers one special Easter when she was nine years old. Her parents gave
her a baby duckling in a yellow basket.
“Mom said later that she bought the little duck because she felt sorry for it,” recalled
Sara. The people at the pet store colored the feathers pink for Easter. Sara named the duck
Pinky.
Sara’s mother really didn’t think the baby duck would survive very long. But to her
surprise, Pinky grew and got stronger and stronger. Soon, the little duckling was a healthy,
hungry duck with white feathers.
“We fed Pinky oatmeal, cooked and uncooked, and small pieces of vegetables,” said Sara.
Pinky lived inside the house with Sara and her family. She specially fancied taking baths with
Sara. Everyone treated Pinky as a family member.
But just when everything appeared to be perfect, the night of the “talk” came. Sara’s Mom
and Dad sat her down, explaining that the best thing for Pinky was to live a normal duck life,
with other ducks. It was not natural for ducks to live indoors with a family, her father told her.
He added Pinky needed to swim in ponds and do all the same things that ducks in the wild do.
Sara started to cry, knowing what was going to happen. Sara’s parents decided to take
Pinky to a park, which was two miles away. There was a pond with a lot of other ducks. Pinky
would have the chance to live a natural life and Sara could still visit her.
The big day came, Sara and her parents put Pinky in a box and drove to the park. Sara
said that Pinky did not look happy; maybe Pinky was convinced that she was a human, not a
duck.

Dear Sir or Madam,
I am Li Hua, a customer of your hotel. My parents and I had a terrible stay in Room 512. I
am writing to complain about your hotel service.
There are the following problems. To begin with,the air conditioner wouldn’t work. When I
asked the staff for help, they said OK. But eventually no one came. Besides, much to my
dissatisfaction, I found the bathroom rather dirty to bathe in. What annoys me most is that the
noise outside at night, which was so loud that we found it hard to fall asleep. I asked to change
rooms, but was refused for the reason that the hotel was full. It was surprising that the waiters
treated us in a very casual and indifferent manner. There is no doubt that your service needs to be
improved.
I am really annoyed about it. I hope you can look into the case and take effective measures
to prevent such things happening again. I would appreciate it if you could handle the matter at
your earliest convenience.
读后续写:
Yours faithfully,
Li HuaEveryone was sad when they left Pinky at the pond, even Sara’s father. But he tried to convince Sara that Pinky
was fine. Walking towards the car, Sara looked over her shoulder and saw Pinky standing alone. The other ducks
were swimming around in circles, looking at Pinky. To Sara, it seemed that they were trying to identify the strange
animal. They didn’t recognize Pinky as a duck. Worried about Pinky, Sara dreamed of Pinky being bullied by other
ducks the whole night.
The next morning, when looking out of the kitchen window, Sara couldn’t believe her eyes! There was Pinky,
happily walking around on the grass. Thrilled at what she saw, she kept asking herself,” How did she make it?” After
all, it was two miles away and he managed to walk back through the city street. Incredible! But her parents drove
Pinky back to the pond again regardless of her request. The following morning, there was Pinky again on the grass!
Seeing Pinky again, her father, waving his arms about wildly, moved his lips without saying anything. Meanwhile,
Sarah, overjoyed, hugged Pinky tightly, tears streaming down her cheeks.
