He has a range of drivable pieces of baggage weighing from 7 to 10 kg depending on size.A custommade lithium battery (锂电池) can power a case for up to three hours.“The battery is light and small but of high capacity，” said He, a manager at a vehicle repair plant in the 1980s. He decided to turn his hand to inventions and ever since has been on a long journey.Frustrated by long trips with heavy luggage, He eventually had an epiphany (灵感). People shouldnt be carrying suitcases, he thought, it should be the other way around.He now owns the patent for the multifunctional suitcase.

You are probably better at some school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career. A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work. So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other hand, you may not have any specially strong subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. A knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.Your school may have taught you skills，such as typing or technical drawing, which you can use in your work. You may be good at metalwork or cookery and look for a job where you can improve these skills. If you have had a parttime job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a parttime job.Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be_all_thumbs when you handle tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is better to face any weakness than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not be apologetic about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work.【语篇解读】本文分析了学业和未来职业之间的关系。提醒学生只要正视自己的优点和弱点，就会在未来的工作中有个全新的开始。1We can infer from the first paragraph that _Alearning better at school shows power in your jobBthe better you are at school subjects, the more helpful they are in your careerClearning each subject well is an ability in many jobsDwe should think about how to find our career解析：推理判断题。根据文中的“You are probably better at some school subjects than others.These may show strengths that you can use in your work.”可知答案。答案：B2All the subjects may have direct value for job hunting EXCEPT _AmathematicsBEnglishChistory Dtechnical drawing解析：细节理解题。根据文中的“A knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details.”可知答案。答案：C3The underlined phrase “be all thumbs” (in Paragraph 3) probably means “_”Aheavyhanded Bthe bestCimportant Dskilled解析：词义猜测题。根据上文的“Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself.”可知，画线部分指的是“你的弱点”，故选A项(笨手笨脚的)。答案：A4The passage mainly discusses
