Or you may be looking for something different to do. You won’t believe what some of these people do for a living. Check out these strangest jobs and tell us if you could handle doing any of them.‎ Watching Paint Dry This may be one of the most boring jobs in the world. The paint company hires people to watch paint dry. They need to take note of the changing colors and have to examine the changes under a microscope(显微镜) as well as on the walls.‎ Iceberg(冰山) Mover This job appeared after the Titanic tragedy(悲剧) in 1912. Iceberg movers remove icebergs and prevent any further accidents. Using satellites and airplanes, the movers search the seas for icebergs. And if any are found, they pull the iceberg to an area where it won’t be in the way. Pulling an iceberg can take up to 72 hours. This is because the boat needs ten hours to reach a speed of just one mile per hour.‎ Luggage Organizer There are many camp activities for children in New York. Mothers are now inviting luggage organizers to pack their kids’ bags. To hire an organizer costs around US $250 an hour. It can take up to four hours to be fully packed and ready. US $1,000 to pay somebody to pack your kids’ bags, is it worth it?‎ ‎21. What is the aim of the job of an iceberg mover?‎ A. To be in memory of the movie Titanic. B.

It is expensive to hire one organizer.‎ B On a day in Arkansas, some fishermen saw a bear cub（幼兽）in a tree. As hours went by, its mother didn’t return. So they called wildlife biologist（生物学家） Eastridge.‎ The bear cub was sick and hungry, weighing only 5 pounds and with his eyes not completely open. Eastridge called Lisa Stewart, who works at Appalachian Bear Rescue in Tennessee. Stewart always makes room for a new cub.‎ She named the bear Miracle because she thought it was a miracle that he had survived! As soon as she could, she stopped having contact with the cub so he would not become too used to humans. When the cub arrived, Stewart cleaned his eyes and put him in a house alone. Since Miracle was already 5‎ months old. Stewart gave him bowls of food and another bowl of a special formula(配方奶粉)， similar to a bear mother’s milk. Sometimes, Miracle would reach his head out of his house and take some formula or food. But he wasn’t eating too much.‎ Miracle was too weak to be with other bears. So Stewart gave him a toy bear named Buddy. He took it into his house and covered it with straw(稻草). He fed Buddy, too. Stewart often found the toy covered in formula and berries and its ears full of apple chunks. Now that Miracle had Buddy, he came ‎out of his house more often and wanted to eat.‎ After two months, Stewart introduced Miracle to other bears so they could learn from one another. She avoided any direct contact with Miracle and the other bears. Stewart wanted to make sure they stayed afraid of humans so they could go back into the wild again. She always hid behind a fence(栅栏)‎ and threw food over the top secretly. The bears hunted for this food as they would soon do in the wild.‎ Five months later, Rick Eastridge returned to pick up a healthy 90-pound Miracle and another bear from Arkansas named Rocky. Eastridge loaded the bears into boxes on his truck and transported them back to the wild. As soon as the bear boxes were opened, the two cubs ran for the woods─where they belonged.‎ ‎24.What did Stewart do shortly after the cub arrived?‎ A. She helped him eat food. B.

She doesn’t want to listen to them one by one, which can always be over a dozen in all. And she hates having to listen again if she misses something. “I really don't’ want to open them,” she says. ”But what can I do? She’s my mom.”Her mother, however, thinks that texting seems cold, and reading text on a phone screen is difficult for people at her age. So she also uses voice messages when communicating with her old schoolmates.‎ Now, sending voice messages is seen as a feature for seniors, plus a few groups such as salespeople and drivers. About nine out of 10 Chinese internet users are on WeChat and half of them spend over 90 minutes a day on the app chatting, reading, working and shopping. There is no doubt that WeChat is where China’s national conversation takes place.‎ WeChat’s 2017 user report shows that while people over 55 made up only 1% of the platform’s(平 台) user base, one out of five messages they sent were voice, compared with one in 10 for users under ‎21.”While users take nine seconds on average to read 100 characters, they need 22 seconds to listen to the same 100 characters,” says Liu Xingliang, head of research at the company Data Center about the China Internet.”Only when you listen to WeChat’ voice messages will you find out how long a minute is,” he says.‎ ‎32.

People travelled on roads by wagon(马车), but most things would be taken by sea in the 16th century. In the 19th century,‎ some of the forms of transport that you know today were invented─the bike and the car.‎ ‎39 The first underground railway in the world was built in London.‎ As it got easier to travel, people wanted to get to places faster. 40 It was first used in war, but now it has become an indispensable(不可或缺的) way of transport.‎ A.
