解析
考查要点:本题主要考查学生对青少年假期工作相关法规和信息的理解,包括不同年龄段的工作时间限制、最低工资标准、可选工作类型及正确信息判断。
解题核心:需结合文章中具体条款,如年龄对应的劳动时间、最低工资规定、工作类型限制等,对应选项进行匹配。
关键点:注意细节定位(如时间限制、工资计算)和逻辑判断(如选项是否符合原文描述)。
第(1)题
关键信息:14岁属于13-15岁年龄段,根据原文规定“不能在早上7点前或晚上7点后工作”。
选项分析:
- C选项“不能晚上工作”符合原文时间限制,其他选项均与文章不符。
第(2)题
关键信息:16岁属于16-17岁年龄段,最低时薪为7美元。
计算过程:
- 2小时工资 = 7美元/小时 × 2小时 = 14美元,对应C选项。
第(3)题
关键信息:原文描述水果采摘“辛苦但收入高”。
选项分析:
- B选项“辛苦但收入好”直接对应原文描述。
第(4)题
关键信息:
- B选项“青少年可按兴趣选工作”符合最后一段“做你喜欢的事”的描述。
- 其他选项均与原文矛盾(如A选项“17岁不能遛狗”错误,因16岁以上可从事更多工作)。
