.
Experts believe that there are about 40,000 different types of jobs in the world. Choosing the right one is a difficult job in itself.
“Finding a job” is not the same as “choosing a job”. Many young people end up in a job that they are not suited to. “Chance” may play a more important part than “decision”. So here are a few steps to help you think about jobs, which you might enjoy doing after school or university.
First, it is important to recognize what kind of person you are and which special qualities make you different from everyone else.
To examine your skills and abilities even further, ask yourself this question: in the following three areas — skills with people, skills with information or skills with things — which are your best skills?
You may have noticed something while you were doing this task. The point is that there is a difference between an interest and a skill. If you like are and enjoy looking at pictures, it is an interest. But if you can draw a horse that looks like a horse and not a big dog, that looks like a horse and not a big dog, that looks like a horse and not a big dog, that is a skill. The best job is one that uses your skills n something that you are interested in. in addition to this, it is an advantage if you believe that a particular job is worth doing in the world.
After that, the next step is research. To find out as much as possible about different kinds of work, go to the library and read books, magazines and newspapers. Ask your friends about the work they do. If you are interested in banking, it is better to talk to a bank clerk who is twenty –four, rather than a bank manager who is sixty –four. Do not rely on your parents’ friends for information. A younger person will be able to describe a normal day at work and tell you about the interesting or boring things when you first start working.
Finally, trust your own ideas and your own thinking! It is your own life, so find something that you enjoy doing.
61. The difference between “finding a job” and “choosing a job” lies in _______.
A. finding a job is a decision while choosing a job is a chance
B. finding a job is more important than choosing a job.
C. A job that you find is one who is more suitable for you than one that you choose
D. A job that you choose is based on your decision and suits you while one that you find often isn’t.
62. What is the first step to find a job that suits you well?
A. The first step is to recognize what kind of person you are and which special qualities make you different from everyone else.
B. The first step is to find out as much as possible about different kinds of work.
C. The first step is to ask your friends about the work they do.
D. The first step is to consider your parents’ advice.

High school students have always spread gossip(傳言) in the halls, on the walls and on the phone. Now it’s on the Internet, too. On various message boards, kids write about whom they hate, whom they think have fallen in love with each other and record other often hurtful things that may or may not be true.
Sixteen- year-old Jessica remembers once when some kids at her school wrote cruel things about her on the web. “ They were just making fun of me,” she says. They said she’s really ugly, she’s this, she’s that, blah-blah-blah.
Jessica’s 11-year-old sister, Emma, admits she’s used the web to write bad things about another girl, though she regrets it now. “After a while, you may feel like, how could I have been so mean? Or, why did I do that?” she says.
Experts say gossip on the Inernet can be more harmful than the old fashioned kind. It lasts longer and is taken more seriously. And, unlike ugly words on the bathroom wall, there’s no way to get rid of it.
If your kids are victims of online gossip, Dr. Commanday suggests putting the gossip into perspective(正確看待). “Point out to them how what’s being said on the screen differs from what everyone knows about you as a person,” Dr. Commanday says.
You can also try what worked for Emma: Keep your kids off the offensive website! “ When she was using it all the time, her name was there all the time. People were writing things about her,” explains Patti Thrift, Emma’s mother, “ Since she has no longer had access to that, she’ s no longer a topic of conversation.”
Experts say that any time your child is on the Internet , you should know what he or she is doing there. Online gossip is just another reason why.
From the examples of Jessica and her sister, we can learn that ________.
A. ugly girls like to spread gossip online
B. ugly girls easily become victims of online gossip
C. gossip-makers can regret what they do
D. online gossip is mailny some jokes on others
According to the passage, why is online gossip more hurtful?
A. It can not be removed.
B. It is written words.
C. It is much uglier.
D. It is easier to believe.
If you are a victim of online gossip, you’d better_______
A. ask your parents to stop it
B. try to stay away from there
C. make it known to the police
D. speak ill of the gossip-maker
The purpose of the passage is to _____
A. introduce different kinds of hurt students might meet with
B. advise students to keep away from the Internet
C. list the bad influence gossip on the Internet brings
D. give some tips on how to prevent hurt of gossip on the Internet
The passage is mainly written for____
A. experts B teachers C. parents D. students

It has been found that less than one shopper in five makes a complete shopping list before going to the store. The reason for this is that seven out of ten of today’s purchases(購買) are decided in the store, where the shoppers tend toward impulse(沖動) buying. Buying groceries on impulse had risen for the past forty years, and this rise has coincided(巧合) with the growth of self-service shopping. However, in grocery stores where clerks wait on customers there is much less impulse buying. It is hard for people to buy on impulse if they have to address a clerk.
Psychologists have joined forces with merchandising(商品) experts. It is their job to persuade people to buy products which they may not need or even want until they see them attractively presented. It was discovered by the psychologists that shoppers want help in their purchases. Having so many choices confuses them, and they prefer the package that attracts them. Therefore, it is now more usual for food packers to pay attention to their package design. Attraction depends heavily on the position of the product on the shelf, however. Thus, persuading the shopper to buy is easier if the product is located at eye-level.
【小題1】According to the information in the first paragraph, ______ make a complete list.
A.only five shoppers | B.less than twenty percent of the shoppers |
C.only ten percent of the shoppers | D.not even five percent of the shoppers |
A.people have difficulty making up their mind before going shopping |
B.people don’t know what is available in the store |
C.people tend to decide on buying products when they see them |
D.people are easily deceived(欺騙) by the attractive products |
A.the clerks ignore the customers |
B.the clerks are too eager to serve the customers |
C.the stores have to send the shopper’s purchases to his house |
D.customers hesitate to ask for help if they haven’t decided what to buy |
A.the top shelf | B.the bottom shelf |
C.the shelf which people can see easily | D.the shelf where there is less confusion |
A.Psychologists and Merchandising Experts. | B.Impulse Buying. |
C.The more Products the More Confusion. | D.Self-service Shopping. |

When movie star Scarlett Johansson was photographed naming in Los Angeles recently, she attracted a lot of attention; for the 27-year-old actress was wearing Vibram FiveFingers, so called because they look more like gloves than shoes, with a space for each toe.
Strange though they may look, these so-called barefoot shoes, which reproduce the effect of barefoot running but with less pain, are just one brand in a range of minimalist footwear. These super-thin sports shoes are causing a stir in the world of running and fitness. Why? Because some experts believe they could make you a better, more efficient runner and that traditional trainers could be doing you more harm than good.
"Wearing a shoe that has lots of cushioning and support affects the way your body naturally moves and studies suggest that this carries a higher risk of injury," explains Matt Wallden, an athlete performance expert. "But with barefoot shoes, the foot can actually feel the firmness and shape of the ground, which allows your body to respond effectively.'"
But before you rush out to invest in minimalist footwear, be careful. These kinds of shoes are not meant for everyone, or at least not straight away.
"Ordinary sports shoes with support are good for beginners whose bodies are not used to the impact of running," explains Patrick Davoren, former Olympic athlete. "If you are not in great condition, then running in minimalist footwear may cause injuries and will turn a lot of people off exercise and running.
If you are currently injured, and figures show that in any given year 65% of all runners are, it can be tempting to try anything that promises to get you back on the road, trail, or beach. But barefoot running is not a method of treating injury nor is it a magical way of suddenly turning you into a great athlete.
Even if you're used to running, when you start using minimalist shoes you should build up your distance gradually. Start_off'by doing just 10% of what you'd normally run and increase the distance by no more than 10% every week. And a word of warning - you may never have soft feet again
1.The Vibram FiveFingers are shoes ______.
A.specifically designed for women
B.that have lots of cushion inside
C.safest for people who enjoy sports
D.that are much thinner than normal sports shoes
2.The underlined word "they" in paragraph 2 refers to ________.
A.experts B.feet C.shoes D.runners
3.According to Matt Wallden, the new shoes ________.
A.make feet more sensitive to the running surface
B.will produce immediate improvements
C.force your body to move less naturally
D.increase the chances of getting hurt
4.The author suggests that new users of Vibram FiveFingers should ________.
A.run in the shoes every day at top speed
B.begin with a shorter running distance than normal
C.occasionally run barefooted to harden their feet
D.make sure they are already very fit before using them
5.Where would you probably read this article?
A.A travel book. B.A movie website.
C.A sports magazine. D.A science journal.
