Here is a checklist that covers some
19、 of the major links in the job- search chain. THE RESUME Make sure it is up-to-date and tailored to the types of jobs you are seeking for. Have someone else look at your resume. If you cannot afford a career coach, give your resume to friends or family members to scrutinize. Have copies of your resu
20、me printed so that you are ready to hand them out at interviews. COVERING LETTERS Maybe youve set up a few basic styles in advance, but thats not enough. Each covering letter should be designed to suit the job for which you are applying. THE WARDROBE Check your wardrobe (衣橱) to ensure that you have

Network through e-mail messages, phone calls, appointments and meetings keep you in touch with the outside world and prevent you from becoming depressed. APPLICATIO
22、N A glance at huge online job sites isnt usually the best way to find a job. You are more likely to succeed through the people you know via networking. THE FOLLOW-UP It is quite common to apply for a job and never hear back from the company. Take measures, such as following up with a phone call a we
23、ek or so after you apply. If you know someone at the company, check whether that person will put in a good word for you. INTERVIEWS If youve got plenty of interviews but no return calls or job offers, take a look at your interviewing skills. This is one area where investing in a career coach may pay
24、 off. But if you cant afford one, try to find a job group or service that conducts free mock(模拟) interviews. SUPPORT SYSTEMS Finally, recognize that looking for a job is rather difficult. Even at the best of times, a job hunt is often about rejection, and that can be hard to endure. Staying in touch
25、 with family, friends, professional networks and fellow job seekers can help you to maintain a positive attitude and a sense of perspective.36. The authors purpose of writing this text is to _. A. give people some tips on searching for jobsB. suggest graduates should find suitable jobs C. tell peopl

30、ncer Goldstein, after collecting hundreds of pieces of baseball equipment for kids who cannot afford to buy their own. Spencer collected the bats, balls, gloves, helmets and masks for his mitzvah (virtue) project, which is a community service project that many Jewish kids do around their bar or bat
31、mitzvahs (成人礼). A bar mitzvah is a ceremony for a boy while a bat mitzvah is intended for a girl. The ceremony means that you are old enough to take on a grown-ups responsibilities. Spencer got the idea for his mitzvah project after seeing the Ugandan national team at last years Little League World
32、Series. Some of the Ugandan players didnt even have their own gloves. And Spencers donations are going to a group called “Pitch for Baseball”a group that gives baseball equipment to kids in low-income communities around the world. Mollie Schwartz and Mia Schwartz also came up with a sports-related m
33、itzvah project. The money they raised went to the Israel Sport Center for the Disabled. They raised at least $9,000enough to pay for at least three wheelchairs made for playing basketball. In Massachusetts, Abigail Miller decided to collect musical instruments for her mitzvah project. The instrument
34、s Abigail collected were then donated to groups that distribute them to kids who cant afford to buy them. “I want to make sure everybody can get the chance to enjoy music like I do,” Abigail said. Abigail collected more than three-dozen instrumentswind instruments, string instruments, keyboards, and
35、 even a drum set. Whether its playing sports, playing music or something else, kids such as Spencer, Mollie, Mia and Abigail are using their mitzvah projects to change the world for the better. “They learned about generosity, said Mollies mother, Loft Schwartz, “and the power to make things happen”.

Honesty.CIf you saw another kid ride her bike too fast around a corner and fall down, you might ride your bike more slowly on that turn. Yes, we humans are very sensitive to others mistakes. And the same is true fo
40、r other animals. Animals mess up all the time. They might eat poisonous leaves, fall off a tree or let their prey(猎物) slip away. By watching others fail, an animal can avoid making the same mistakes, thus improving its chance of survival.Scientists suspected that one part of the brain helps animals
41、process information about others errors. Cells in that part appear to become more active when a person sees someone else making a mistake. But researchers didnt know whether individual cells in this part of the brain play different roles in detecting errors.To investigate the brains response to erro
42、rs in more detail, the researchers taught a game to two macaques, a type of monkey. One monkey could press a yellow or green button while the other watched. If the first monkey pressed the right button, the team gave both animals a treat. Every couple of rounds, the two monkeys switched roles. Meanw
43、hile, the scientists monitored individual cells in the animals brains.When the first monkey messed up the game by pressing the wrong button, a group of cells in the second monkeys brain fired. But if the second monkey also made the wrong choice during its turn, some of the cells in that group didnt
44、respond. Those unresponsive cells reacted specifically to mistakes made by others, not to the monkeys own mistakes.Scientists believe other parts of the brain also might help people process information about anothers errors. “You start to think about this other person and see things from his angle.”

The brain cells are always sensitive to others information.D“Youre going to the United States to live? How wonderful! Youre really lucky!”Does this sound familiar
49、? Perhaps your family and friends said similar things to you when you left home. But does it seem true all the time? Is your life in this new country always wonderful and exciting? A great many facts show that its not easy for newcomers to adjust to life in a new culture. They have to experience cul
50、ture shock.What causes culture shock? Maybe the weather is unpleasant. Perhaps the customs are different. Perhaps the public service systems such as the telephone, post office, or transportation are difficult to figure out and you make mistakes. The simplest things seem difficult. The language may b
51、e difficult. The food may seem strange to you. If you dont look similar to the natives, you may feel strange. You may feel as if everyone is watching you. In fact, you are always watching yourself. Everyone experiences culture shock in some form or another. But culture shock comes as a surprise to m
52、ost people. A lot of the time, the people with the worst culture shock are the people who never had any difficulties in their own countries.They were active and successful in their community. They had hobbies or pastimes which they enjoyed. When they come to a new country, they do not have the same
53、positions or hobbies as they already had in their countries. They find themselves without a role, almost without an identity. They have to build a new self-image.Culture shock produces a feeling of disorientation (迷惘), which may be homesickness, imagined illness, or even paranoia (妄想). When people f
54、eel the disorientation of culture shock, they sometimes feel like staying inside all the time. They want to protect themselves from the unfamiliar environment. They want to create an escape within their room to give themselves a sense of security. This escape does solve the problem of culture shock

60、to mankind, and I enjoy reading books that belong to me much more than if they are borrowed. A borrowed book is like a guest in the house and it should be treated with care. You cannot leave it carelessly, you cannot mark it, and you cannot use it as you like. And then, someday, you really ought to
61、return it. If it is a distinguished guest, it really makes you feel empty when he or she leaves. Its the same with a good book.However, your own books belong to you. Books are for use, not for show; you should own no books that you are afraid to mark up, or afraid to place on the table, wide open an
62、d face down. A good reason for marking favorite passages in books is that this practice enables you to remember more easily the significant passages and to refer to them quickly. One should have ones own bookshelves, which should not have doors, glass windows or keys; they should be free and easy to
63、 use. My devotion to reading has never made me a person who lives alone. How could it be? Books are of the people, by the people and for the people. Literature is an immortal part of history; it is the best and most lasting part of personality. The truth of our life is that the great dead are beyond
64、 our reach, and the great living are usually almost as unreachable; as for our personal friends, we cannot always see them. Perhaps they are asleep, or away on a journey. Book friends have an advantage over living friends; you can enjoy the most truly noble society in the world whenever you want. An

One possible version:Children should learn to make their own decisionsParents in China tend to make all decisions for their children. They plan for their childrens education, careers and even marriages. They decide f
71、or their children what to eat and wear, what books to read, what friends to make, and so on. However, deciding everything for children does not help them in the long run. On the one hand, children brought up under too much parental care are usually unsociable and inexperienced. They are like flowers
72、 planted in a greenhouse, which cannot stand up to the harsh weather conditions outside. On the other hand, learning to make their own decisions is absolutely necessary for the personal development of children. Therefore, what the best parents can do is to give their children advice rather than make decisions for them. By doing so, children can learn about the world gradually through personal experiences.
