So our schools have a duty to teach them this ability from the beginning. Were likely to accept something we are told, but thats not what educated people do.
24、 Educated people are reasonable and they look at facts. If our schools teach nothing else, they should at least teach critical (批判性的) thinking. Children should learn to take care of their health.

26、people around us. How will we test students on these? We cant. But thats not a reason to avoid teaching what is important.

78、容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。注意:每个空格只填1个单词。When we think of leadership, we often think of strength and power. But what are these really and how do they operate? Leadership today is not about forcing others to do things. Even if this is possible, it is shortterm, and tends to backfire(产生事与愿违的后果). If you orde
79、r someone to do something against their will, they may do it because they feel they must, but the anger they feel will do more harm in the longterm. They will also experience fear. Fear causes the thinking brain to shut down, making the person unable to function at his or her best. If they associate
80、 you with this emotion of fear, they will become less functional around you, and you will have succeeded in not only shooting yourself in the foot, but possibly making a very good employee or partner unable to perform effectively. Fear has no place in leadership. The way we influence people in a las
81、ting way is by our own character, and our understanding and use of emotion. We can order someone to do something, which may be part of the work day or we can employ them at the emotional level, so they became fully devoted to the projects and provide some of their own motivations. Todays work place
82、is all about relationships. Anyone works harder in a positive environment in which theyre recognized and valued as a human being as well as a worker. Everyone produces just a bit more for someone they like. Leaders understand the way things work. They know the paycheck is not the single most motivat
83、ing factor in the work life of most people. The true strength of leadership is an inner strength that comes from the confidence of emotional intelligenceknowing your own emotions, and how to handle them, and those of others. Developing your emotional intelligence is the single best thing you can do

104、 nothing like American life feels now, and a big reason is those three changes that took place in the second half of the 20th century, which has had the most lasting impact on our lives today. 1.The building of the interstates (州际公路) 2.The covering of the United States with coasttocoast television.
105、3.The introduction and spread of the Internet. Before the interstates were constructed, even a trip within an individual state often took considerable planning; twolane roads, dangerous and slow, were common. The interstates, tore down the invisible walls around US. towns. President Eisenhower was i
106、n favor of building the interstates, because he believed that, in time of war, they would be helpful in moving troops and supplies. But their immediate effect was to make Americans feel that certain doors had been unlocked. With the interstates came a sense of freedom: A person could drive anywheree
107、verywhereeasily. Suddenly, horizons were unlimited. “Local” didnt mean quite the same thing it used to. Getting away was effortless. The introduction of national television meant that for the first time in history, people in every corner of the country were watching exactly the same thing at exactly
108、 the same moment. It connected the country, in a way that even network radio hadnt accomplished, and it was because of the quality of the TV pictures. As with the interstates, coasttocoast television was a cure to separation. Those who ran the newly formed television networks had an enormous amount
109、of power. Their decisions about what to put on the air determined what people would be talking about the next day. They controlled what people would laugh at and when, what people would cry over and when, what would anger people and when it would anger them. And then, later in the century, the Inter
110、net came along erasing all symbolic borders. If the interstate highways had allowed physical freedom, the Internet allowed a different kind of freedom, one unprecedented (空前的) in human experience. It was no coincidence that it was initially referred to as the information superhighway: Seemingly over
111、night, the knowledge of the world was available to anyone with a keyboard and a modem; people who had never met and would never meet could communicate as if they were lifelong friends. Now the individual at his or her computer terminal was given the power to decide how he or she would be informed or
112、 entertained at a given moment. No one else had the absolute authority to arrange the individuals life; he or she made that decision, moment by moment. What in the past might have taken a person a lifetimesearching for mankinds recorded wisdom in distant and magnificent librariesnow, in theory, was
113、available with a series of key taps from ones room. What had once seemed unbelievable had, very quickly, become routine. The three developments ended up changing our daily world greatly; largely because of them, it is a world that would be almost unrecognizable to our grandparents and greatgrandpare

Many people feel that the United States has the worst taxes in the world.Taxes are the money that people pay to sup
183、port their government. There are generally three levels of government in the United States: federal, state, and city; therefore, there are three types of taxes.Salaried people who earn more than four to five thousand per year must pay a certain part of their salaries to the federal government. The p
184、ercentage varies for different people. It depends on the salaries. The federal government has a two level income tax: that is, 15 or 28 percent. $17,850 is the cutoff. The tax rate is 15 percent below $17,850 and 28 percent above.The second tax is for the state government: New York, California, or a
185、ny of the other fortyeight states. Some states have an income tax similar to that of the federal government. Of course, the percentage for the state tax is lower. Other states have a sales tax, which is a percentage charged to any item which people buy in the state. Some states use income tax and sa
186、les tax to raise their revenues (收入)The third tax is for the city. This tax comes in two forms: property tax (people who own a house have to pay taxes on it ) and excise (执照) tax, which is collected on vehicles in a city. The cities use this money for education, police, public works, etc.Since Ameri

They often say that the government misuses their tax dollars. They all believe that taxes are too high in this country.31. How much money does an American ea

Dealing with these issues alone can cause anxiety in even the most confident kids.Bullie
194、s (欺凌弱小者)Things have changed in the world of bullies since I was a kid.The good news is that teachers and parents are paying more attention. Many schools now have antibullying programs and policies. Though bullying does still happen, help is generally more easily accessible than before.The bad news
195、is that bullying has gone hightech. Many students use the Internet, cell phones and other media devices to bully other students, and this type of bullying often gets very aggressive. One reason is that bullies can be anonymous (匿名的) and enlist other bullies to make their targets miserable.Another re

As their children began moving up through the nations schools, it became clear that a new class of academic achievers was forming. Their a
277、chievements are reflected in the nations best universities, where mathematics, science and engineering departments have taken on an Asian character. This special liking for mathematics and science is partly explained by the fact that AsianAmerican students who began their education abroad arrived in
278、 the US with a solid grounding in mathematics but little or no knowledge of English. They are also influenced by the promise of a good job after college. Asians feel there will be less unfair treatment in areas like mathematics and science because they will be judged more objectively (客观地). And the
279、return on the investment in education is more immediate in something like engineering than with an arts degree. Most AsianAmerican students owe their success to the influence of parents who are determined that their children take full advantage of what the American educational system has to offer. A
280、n effective measure of parental attention is homework. Asian parents spend more time with their children than American parents do, and it helps. Many researchers also believe there is something in Asian culture that promotes success, such as ideals that stress family values and emphasize education.
281、Both explanations for academic success worry Asian Americans because of fears that they form a typical racial image. Many can remember when Chinese, Japanese and Filipino immigrants were the victims of social separation. Indeed, it was not until 1952 that laws were laid down giving all Asian immigra

298、lk to our doorstep.His name was Mr.Basille.He wore a white cap and drove a white truck.As a 5yearold boy,I couldnt take my eyes off the coin changer fixed to his belt.He noticed this one day during a delivery and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer. Of course,he delivered more than milk.There
299、was cheese,eggs and so on.If we needed to change our order,my mother would pen a note“Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery” and place it in the box along with the empty bottles.And then,the buttermilk would magically(魔术般)appear. All of this was about more than convenience.There existed a
300、close relationship between families and their milkmen.Mr.Basille even had a key to our house,for those times when it was so cold outside that we put the box indoors,so that the milk wouldnt freeze.And I remember Mr.Basille from time to time taking a break at our kitchen table,having a cup of tea and
301、 telling stories about his delivery. There is sadly no home milk delivery today.Big companies allowed the production of cheaper milk, thus making it difficult for milkmen to compete(竞争)Besides,milk is for sale everywhere,and it may just not have been practical to have a delivery service. Recently, a
302、n old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhood memories.I took it home and planted it on the back porch(门廊)Every so often my sons friends will ask what it is.So I start telling stories of my boyhood,and of the milkman who brought us friendship along with his milk.31Mr.Basille gave
303、 the boy a quarter out of his coin changer _. Ato show his magical power Bto pay for the delivery Cto satisfy his curiosity Dto please his mother 32.What can be inferred from the fact that the milkman had the key to the boys house? AHe wanted to have tea there. BHe was a respectable person. CHe was
304、treated as a family member. DHe was fully trusted by the family.33Why does home milk delivery no longer exist? ANobody wants to be a milkman now. BIt has been driven out of the market. CIts service is getting poor. DIt is forbidden by law.34Why did the author bring back home an old milk box? AHe mis
305、sed the good old days. BHe wanted to tell interesting stories. CHe needed it for his milk bottles. DHe planted flowers in it.B2011福建卷 For five days, Edmontons Downtown Park is transformed into one huge stage where artists are able to share their talents, and where people are able to celebrate and en
306、joy themselves. Since its beginning in 1980, the Edmonton Folk Music Festival has been commemorating(纪念) the true feeling of what folk music is all about and thats the traditional togetherness(友爱) that is felt when people gather to share stories and feelings through song. This year will be the sixth
307、 year when volunteer Riedel will be offering up her time to the festival. “People coming off a busy spring and summer have a moment of relaxation,” Riedel said. “Its really easy to relax, and its great seeing family and friends have fun together.” These families and friends come from all different k
308、inds of musical tastes. People who take pleasure in Blues are there, so are people who love Bluegrass. This festival does its best to develop everyones musical interests. With so many years of experience, the festival has become a welloiled machine, and does whatever it can to make attendees feel as
309、 comfortable as possible. There are free water stations throughout the venue(举办地)for people to fill up their travel cups. When people buy food, reusable dishes are given a $2 plate fee, but that is returned when the plate is brought back. The festival has completely sold out of tickets, and in recor
310、d time. But with big names such as Van Morrison and Jakob Dylan, its easy to see how that was going to happen. There is no parking area during the festival, so using the Park & Ride system or Edmonton Transit is highly recommended. A bike lockup area is provided and will be available Thursday until
311、Sunday one hour before the gates open until 45 minutes after the gates close. The Edmonton Folk Music Festival begins on Wednesday, Aug. 4 with Van Morrison playing the special donation fund(基金) concert, and will finish up on Sunday, Aug. 8.35.

353、 new bucket.The other was a very old and dilapidated one,which had seen many years of service,but was now past its best.Every morning,the gardener would fill up the two buckets.Then he would carry them along the path,one on each side,to the flowerbeds.The new bucket was very proud of itself.It could
354、 carry a full bucket of water without a single drop spilled (溢出)The old bucket felt very ashamed because of its holes:before it reached the flowerbeds,much water had leaked along the path.Sometimes the new bucket would say,“See how capable I am!How good it is that the gardener has me to water the fl
355、owers every day!I dont know why he still bothers with you.What a waste of space you are!”And all that the old bucket could say was,“I know Im not very useful,but I can only do my best.Im happy that the gardener still finds a little bit of use in me,at least.” One day,the gardener heard that kind of
356、conversation.After watering the flowers as usual,he said,“You both have done your work very well.Now I am going to carry you back.I want you to look carefully along the path.”Then the two buckets did so.All along the path,they noticed,on the side where the new bucket was carried,there was just bare(
357、光秃秃的) earth;on the other side where the old bucket was carried,there was a joyous row of wild flowers,leading all the way to the garden.31What does the underlined word “dilapidated” probably mean?A.

360、fmanagement possible. It is the ability to make decisions and choices and to act in agreement with them. It is the ability to act rather than to be acted upon, to actively carry out the program we have developed through the other three qualities.The human will is an amazing thing. Time after time, i
361、t has overcome unbelievable difficulties.The Helen Kellers of this world give dramatic(给人深刻印象的) evidence to the value, the power of the independent will. But as we examine this quality in the context of effective selfmanagement, we realize its usually not the dramatic, the visible, the onceinalifeti
362、me, upbythebootstraps(自立自强的) effort that brings lasting success. This special ability comes from learning how to use this great quality in the decisions we make every day. The degree to which we have developed our independent will in our everyday lives is measured by our personal honesty.Honesty is,
363、 fundamentally, the value we place on ourselves. Its our ability to make and keep promises to ourselves, to “walk our talk”. Effective management is putting first things first.While leadership decides what “first things” are, it is management that puts them first, daybyday, momentbymoment.Management
364、 is discipline (training to be selfcontrolled), carrying it out. Discipline obtains from beliefbelief in a set of values, belief in an overriding(最主要的) purpose, to a longterm or shortterm goal that must be carried out. In other words, if you are an effective manager of yourself, your discipline come
365、s from within; it is a function of your independent will. You are a follower of your own deep values and their source.And you have the will, the quality to control your feelings and moods rather than depend on others or have your work half done.TitleThe power of independent willThemeIndependent will

But it is not just the extratall whose needs are not being met.The average height of the population has been increasing yet the standard size of beds,doorways,and chairs has remained unchanged.“The be

If you can avoid a conflict, it means you will win what you want regardless of what the other person wants. Since the potential issue
439、 has not been removed, it will simply reappear later. Here are the necessary steps to effectively get rid of conflicts at work. Realize that some conflicts are unavoidable at work. On numerous occasions, conflict and disagreement are likely to happen. But when a conflict happens its not the end of t
440、he world. On the contrary, it can be the beginning of an interesting learning process. Conflicts mean that people care enough to disagree strongly. The trick is not to allow the conflict to go on forever. Handle conflicts sooner rather than later. Solve a conflict when it starts, as it only gets wor

A new theory suggests that medicine could be bad f
491、or your health, which should at least come as good news to people who cannot afford to buy expensive medicine. This new theory argues that healing is at our fingertips: we can be healthy by doing Yoga on a regular basis. Supporters of medical treatment argue that medicine should be trusted since it
492、is effective and scientifically proven. They say that there is no need for spiritual methods such as Yoga. These waste our time, something which is quite precious in our material world. There is medicine that can kill our pain, xrays that show us our bones or MRI that scans our brain for tumors (肿瘤)
493、 We must admit that these methods are very effective in the examples that they provide. However, there are some “everyday complaints” such as back pains, headaches, insomnia, which are treated currently with medicine. When you have a headache, you take an Aspirin; when you cannot sleep, you take Xan
494、ax without thinking of the side effects of these. When you use these pills for a long period, you become addicted to them; you cannot sleep without them. We pay huge amounts of money and become addicted instead of getting better. How about a safer and more economical way of healing? When doing Yoga,
495、 you do not need anything except your energy so it is very economical. Its popularity has spread particularly throughout America and Western Europe. In quantum (量子) physics, energy is recognized as the fundamental substance (物质) which the universe consists of. Yoga depends on the energy within our b
496、odies. It is a simple and effective way of restoring the energy flow. There are no side effects and it is scientifically explained. Opponents of alternative healing methods also claim that serious illnesses such as HIV/AIDS and cancer cannot be treated without drugs. They think so because these pati
497、ents spend the rest of their lives in the hospital taking medicine. How can Yoga make these people healthy again? It is very unfortunate that these patients have to live in the hospital losing their hair because of chemotherapy (化疗), losing weight because of the side effects of the medicine they tak
498、e. Actually, it is common knowledge that except when the cancer is recognized at an early stage, drugs also cannot treat AIDS or cancer. Most of the medicines these patients use are to ease their pain and their sufferings. Instead of drugs which are expensive and have many side effects, you can use
499、your energy to overcome the hardships of life, find an emotional balance, leave the stress of everyday life and let go of the everyday worries. We should definitely start learning Yoga and avoid illnesses before it is too late.Title: Health and Healing at Your Fingertips35._ to a new theoryA new the

Some vacations allow you plenty of opportunities to learn.The most difficult aspect of a learning vacation may be choosing one because the possibilities are endless. If you enjoy cooking, various companies can take you to

Trips are often planned to fit in with local food festivals or special events.The term “learning vacation” often brings language to mind.The best way to learn a language is in an environment where

Youll be able to learn about the country and absorb the culture at the same time.If you are fond of sports, you can polish your skills or learn new ones. Golf and tennis schools welcome p

Some value it highly, believing that it is responsibility for social progress and prosperity. Others say that competition is bad; that it sets one per
524、son against another; that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people. I have taught many children who hold the belief that their selfworth relies on how well they perform at tennis and other skills. For them, playing well and winning are often lifeanddeath affairs. In their singleminded purs
525、uit of success, the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten. However, while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed, others take an opposite attitude. In a culture which values only the winner and pays no attention to the ordinary players, they strongly blame competition.
526、Among the strongest are youngsters who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society. Teaching these young people, I often observe in them a desire to fail. They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success. By not trying, they always have an excuse: “I may
527、have lost, but it doesnt matter because I really didnt try.” What is not usually admitted by themselves is the belief that if they had really tried and lost, that would mean a lot. Such a loss would be a measure of their worth. Clearly, this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try
528、 to prove themselves. Both are based on the mistaken belief that ones selfrespect relies on how well one performs in comparison with others. Both are afraid of not being valued. Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to dissolve (缓解) can we discover a new meaning in competition. 课时作业(二

But it seems that four out of five young people now get on with their parents, which is the opposite of the popularlyheld image
546、 of unhappy teenagers locked in their room after endless family quarrels.An important new study into teenage attitudes surprisingly shows that their family life is more harmonious than it has ever been in the past.“We were surprised by just how positive todays young people seem to be about their fam
547、ilies, ”said one member of the research team.“Theyre expected to be rebellious(叛逆的)and selfish but actually they have other things on their minds; they want a car and material goods, and they worry about whether school is serving them well.Theres more negotiation(商议) and discussion between parents a
548、nd children, and children expect to take part in the family decisionmaking process.They don t want to rock the boat. ”So it seems that this generation of parents is much more likely than parents of 30 years ago to treat their children as friends.“My parents are happy to discuss things with me and wi
549、lling to listen to me,” says 17yearold Daniel Lazall. “I always tell them when Im going out clubbing.As long as they know what Im doing,theyre fine with it.”Susan Crome, who is now 21, agrees.“Looking back on the last 10 years, there was a lot of what you could call negotiation. For example, as long
550、 as Id done all my homework,I could go out on a Saturday night. But I think my grandparents were a lot stricter with my parents than that.”Maybe this positive view of family life should not be unexpected. It is possible that the idea of teenage rebellion is not rooted in real facts. A researcher com
551、ments, “Our surprise that teenagers say they get along well with their parents comes because of a brief period in our social history when teenagers were regarded as different beings. But that idea of rebelling and breaking away from their parents really happened during the 1960s when everyone rebell

One evening we went out and we picked up four people from the street. And one of them was in a most terrible conditionand I told the sisters: Yo
567、u take care of the other three. I take care of this one who looks worse. So I did for her all that my love can do. I put her in bed, and there was such a beautiful smile on her face. She took hold of my hand as she said just the words “Thank you” and she died.I could not help but examine my conscien
568、ce before her and I asked what I would say if I was in her place. And my answer was very simple. I would have tried to draw a little attention to myself. I would have said I am hungry, I am dying, I am cold, I am in pain, or something, but she gave me much moreshe gave me her grateful love. And she
569、died with a smile on her face. So did that man whom we picked up from the drain, half eaten with worms, and we brought him to the home. “I have lived like an animal in the street, but I am going to die like an angel, loved and cared for”, he said at the end. And it was so wonderful to see the greatn
570、ess of that man who could speak like that, who could die like that without blaming anybody, without cursing anybody, without comparing anything. Like an angelthis is the greatness of our people. And that is why we believe what Jesus has said: I was hungry, I was naked, I was homeless, I was unwanted
571、, unloved, uncared for, and you did it to me.And with this prize that I received as a Prize of Peace, I am going to try to make the home for many people who have no home. Because I believe that love begins at home and if we can create a home for the poor I think that more and more love will spread.
572、And we will be able through this understanding love to bring peace, the good news to the poor, the poor in our own family first, in our country and in the world. When I pick up a person from the street, hungry and I give him a plate of rice or a piece of bread, I have satisfied. I have removed that
573、hunger. But to a person who is shut out, who feels unwanted, unloved, terrified, who has been thrown out from society, that poverty is so full of hurt and so unbearable And so let us always meet each other with a smile, for the smile is the beginning of love, and once we begin to love each other nat

577、as wealth comes from the exploitation of its rich natural resources and from the work of its citizens. Canadians are employed in a variety of jobs. All of these jobs can be grouped into one of three categories: extractive industries, manufacturing industries and service industries. Industries that t
578、ake raw materials from the natural environment are called extractive or primary industries. Canada has a wealth of natural resources. The extractive industries that have been developed to exploit these natural resources make an important contribution to the wealth of our economy. Without these extra
579、ctive industries and the money they bring from other countries, Canadas economy could not exist in its present form. Yet only a small percentage of Canadas labour force work in extractive industries. Extractive industries rely on laboursaving machines instead of human labour. Manufacturing industrie
580、s process the products of extractive industries into finished products.Manufacturing industries transform raw materials into many different forms to be used by consumers or by other companies. This processing may be done in one or more stages. For example, iron ore is transformed into steel in facto
581、ries. This is called primary manufacturing. The steel is then sent to companies for further processing into cars, mining equipment, machines, nails, and other productssuch as bicycle frames. This is called secondary manufacturing. Manufacturing industries are located in many towns and cities across
582、Canada. Companies try to build their factories in densely populated areas because they want to near the people who buy their products. If they locate near their customers, then they save money on shipping costs. Manufacturing industries provide more jobs to Canadians than do extractive industries. Y
583、et the number of people employed in manufacturing is still small in comparison to the third category, services. As with extractive industries, manufacturing process use many machines that require relatively few workers. Service industries provide services needed by the extractive and manufacturing i
584、ndustries, and by society in general. Without these services, society could not operate. The majority of Canadian workers do not produce “goods” in their jobs. Instead, they provide “services” for others. The range of services is very great and includes such things as retailing, office work, educati
585、on, health care, communications, government, transportation, and personal services. Service industries in one form or another are spread over the entire country. In every community there are stores, banks, schools, police forces, and dozens of other services. The majority of service industries are f

My 11yearold daughter was, in
603、the midst of her project, going to assist her elder brother in making a little cushion. I left, and after a few hours returned to find a mess in the kitchen and in the front room, and both children sitting in front of the television. Having had a long day, I was too tired to greet them and then I no
604、ticed the material my daughter had used. It had been purchased to make a colorcoordinated (颜色协调的) baby blanket, and now had chunks (块) cut out of almost every piece of fabric. Not stopping to listen, I exploded at the children and explained how angry I was at what had been done. My daughter listened
605、 to me sheepishly, not trying to defend herself at all, but the pain could be seen written across her face. She retreated to her room, and spent some time there alone before she came out to say good night and once again apologized for the mistake she had made. A few hours later, as I was preparing t
606、o go to bed, I found that there on my bed lay a beautiful, little cushion made out of the forbidden fabric, with the words “I LOVE MOM”Alongside it was a note apologizing again, and the innocence in which she had taken the fabric. To this day, I still get tears in my eyes when I think of how I react
607、ed and still feel the pain of my actions. It was I who then went to her and apologized for my actions.

You can be safe.(1)Always shop from a safe PC.(2)Try to stick to the sites you know and trust such as Amazon, Overstock, and large store websites.(3)If you heard about a “great gift” or “special offer” through an email from an unknown address, it is likely fake(虚假的) and

670、wing what an employer is looking for in a potential employee can help an applicant to prepare for an interview. An interviewer for a major corporation was asked these questions: What specific skills are you looking for in applicants? And how do you identify these skills? He responded: Most important
671、 for us in the way of skills is the ability to communicatecan people speak clearly? Can they articulate the kind of person they believe themselves to be? In what kind of work situations do they perform well? What are their strengths and weaknesses? We want to know about the personal qualities of the
672、 individual, so I try to ask questions to draw them out and attempt to find out if they have a sense of themselves. What Im looking for is an ability to verbalize an idea in clear, simple, understandable language. Im also looking for the ability to listen attentively and then to be able to respond t
673、o an idea or thought that has been presented to them. If they do have good communication skills, they will be able to do this logically and succinctly. I am looking for creativity can they be spontaneous? I will ask some “offthewall” questions just to see if this throws them. How do they respond in
674、these tough situationscan they be creative with their answers? This is very important when they are out in business situations with customers. They will have to respond to very sudden changes and problemsolving situations that they are not necessarily familiar with, and I want to know if they can ha
675、ndle them. What we look for the most are personal qualitiesassertiveness, selfmotivation, drive, ambition, and a competitive instinct. They should be high achievers and want to work hard. I can usually tell about these qualities from the way the person presents himself or herself and some of the act
676、ivities they have engaged in. I pick up things from the applications and resumehow they have written them and the kinds of things they say. How they present their experiences is often very informative. For example, an assertive person will say, “I can do these things” and “I decided on this course o
677、f action,” whereas a more passive person might say, “These are the experiences I have had.” All of these things describe the person in some way.Qualities Employers Seek35._skillsListening,speaking, reading,writing,decision making, researchingWithout them, 36._bright and knowledgeable you may be, lan
