What would you like to be when you grow up?A teacher?A doctor?An astronaut?What do you need to do to achieve your dream job?
Perhaps you think that studying well and then going on to work hard will get you the successful career(事業) you want.We are constantly taught that our hard work will eventually pay off.
But a government survey has shown that hard work is not the only thing that will help you to move up the ladder.Seventy-six percent of people believe that who you know matters more than what you know when it comes to social activity.So are the connections that you have more important than your education?
Two thirds of the people in the survey believed that family background is important in influencing your chances of success.They believe that if you are privileged from birth,you are more likely to have a successful career,especially if your family is wealthy.
Even if you don’t have a privileged background,the people you know can still make a difference to your career.Networking is a skill which is encouraged by many career advisers.Some companies run networking workshops to try and encourage staff to meet other people,to communicate and build relationships.It’s a valuable skill.
But the survey also showed something quite interesting.Although most people believed that networks are more important than education,many people put their own career success down to talent,rather than family background.41% of the people said that their parents’ income had influenced their life,but at the same time,another 41% believed that they had achieved their own success.
So which is more important,what you know or who you know?It seems that by working hard and making lots of connections,the answer may be that both are very important.
5.According to the government survey,what plays the most important role in helping people move up the ladder?
A.Hard work.
B.Education.
C.Social relationship.
D.Social activity.
答案 C
解析 細節理解題。根據文章第三段中的“Seventy-six percent of people believe that who you know matters more than what you know when it comes to social activity.”可知答案。
6.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
A.Most people think education matters most.
B.Most people think their success has nothing to do with family background.
C.41% of the people believe they gained their own success.
D.41% of the people believe parents’ income is very important.
答案 A

7.What’s the writer’s purpose in writing the passage?
A.To stress the importance of education.
B.To challenge the traditional belief.
C.To make lots of social connections.
D.To encourage people to work hard.
答案 B
解析 推理判斷題。通讀全文內容尤其是文章第二、三兩段可以推斷,作者寫作本文是為了質疑人們對于成功因素的傳統看法。

B.Keep Your Dream in Mind
