河北省唐山市2018届高三第二次模拟考试英语试题（有答案）

I’m the reporter for NBC’s Sunday Night Football. I won’t lie—it’s a dream job. But it isn’t a dream-come-true. There’s no fantasy involved, just a lifetime of hard work.

36 I was a papergirl. I delivered newspapers to people’s homes and sold subscriptions door-to-door. That job taught me persistence (坚持). To succeed, especially in sales you have to knock or a lo of doors.

In high school, I worked at Baskin Robbins. The manager didn’t appreciate it when I gave out overly-generous portions (份额) to customers. 37Until you run the show, you answer to the person who does.

In college, I worked as a part-time telemarketer (电话销售员) for an insurance company, from which I made some good money. But like all telemarketers, I was rejected far more often than not. Usually, I even didn’t get past the first sentence.

After I graduated, I was offered a position in a morning radio show. We put out a good product. But it wasn’t enough- because timing and luck are also important, and you can’t control those. 39 What choice do you have? The radio show taught me that I could be a host. I put together a demo (样带) and sent it out to every station I could find. I finally caught the eye of a sports show in North Carolina. I decided that I would never think of myself as a “female sports reporter,” but just as a“sports reporter”. 40 What does being a woman have to do with it? As a green hand, I was at the station all day, and took every assignment that I could, especially the ones no one else want. After five months, I took that job.

After 5 years, I was offered a job at ESPN. After 10 years there, I joined NBC, where I am now. A. I had my first real job at 13. B. That job taught me responsibility. C. You can only control what you do. D. The path to success is paved with failure. E. You need to smile and treat customers well. F. I kept making mistakes and I kept improving. G. My ambition is to be the best sports journalist. 第三部分 英语知识运用(共两节，满分45分)

Thanks for inviting me to your Chinese Calligraphy exhibition. I truly appreciate all your devotion and

achievement, which will surely contribute to the spread of Chinese culture.

However, it’s a great pity that I can’t attend it that day for I have an important exam to take. I have been making preparations for it for a long time, and I really can’t afford to fail. The exam will determine whether I can be admitted to a graduate program or not. I’m sure you can understand my situation.

Wish your exhibition a great success!

Yours, Li Hua
