Unit 3 Careers and skills Period 1 Welcome to the unit & Reading(1) Ⅰ. 话题拓展阅读。 Twenty five years ago, most young Britons wanted a career in law, to be a doctor, or, if they were creative enough, to take up singing. But today, things stand differently. According to a survey by Tesco Mobile, a UK company, the “dream job” of young people aged between 16 and 25 in the UK is a video blogger, or “vlogger”. The survey, carried out among 1，002 people, found that as many as 40 per cent of them put vloggers as their number one choice on a list of ideal careers.① This change is undoubtedly as a result of the Internet and social media. They have made it so much easier to reach the audience of the world, without having to enter a career in show business in the traditional way.② In the past, the biggest stars were trained by the Hollywood studios; now, anyone with a computer camera can become a star. Vloggers are the big stars of today because they are normal people interacting(交流) with their fans about everyday life.③ However, what people see is only the bright side of being a vlogger and they fail to notice the fact that only those who are successful earn fame(名声) and fortunes.④ For every success there are hundreds of others who never get off the starting line. There are the dreams that come true and the dreams that remain dreams forever. Although being vloggers is popular, some young people choose to follow careers that don't necessarily earn them fame, but that allow them to make good use of the Internet to share their hobbies.⑤ Young Israeli David Leshaw, for example, runs a business called the Finishers Club. It's an online platform for runners to keep a record of their races. His job allows him to express his enthusiasm, and is always a learning experience. And that's enough for him. 一、 阅读短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 ( ) 1. Why do more and more young Britons choose to be vloggers A. Traditional jobs are not creative enough. B.
