28、h not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value.

This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.Your school may hav
29、e 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 part-time job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you
30、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.

65、e of the four plans: Atkins, The Zone, Ornish or LEARN. The women attended diet classes and received written information about the food plans.

66、holesterol levels and blood pressure. Christopher Gardner, who led the study, says the Atkins diet may be more successful because of its simple message to eat less sugar.
