There are many ways to find a job. It can be as easy as walking into a neighborhood store to look at its announcement board. Local stores often have areas where people can put small signs telling what kind of service they need or can provide. Such services include caring for children or cleaning houses.
Or, job searchers can look in the newspaper. Local newspapers have employment announcements placed by companies seeking workers.
Another popular tool for finding jobs is the Internet. For example, people in four hundred and fifty cities around the world can use the Craigslist Web site to buy objects, meet people or find a job. Craigslist says that it receives two million new job listings each month.
Another useful way to find a job is through a college or university. For example, students at the University of Texas in Austin can go to the Career Exploration Center to get help in finding a job. Of course, looking for a job requires knowing what kind of work you want to do. For example, there is a book called “What Color is Your Parachute (降落伞)?” by Richard Bolles. This book has been helping people choose a career (职业) since it was first published in nineteen seventy.
Some experts also help people find jobs. Susan W. Miller owns a company called California Career Services in Los Angeles. She says her company helps people find jobs by first helping them understand their strengths, goals and interests. Then she provides them with methods and resources to help them find the right job.

Eating at a slow speed may help reduce hunger, the U.S. researchers said on Monday. Previous research suggests that the ability to control energy intake may be affected by the speed at which we eat, and a high eating rate may damage the relationship between the sensory signals and processes that control how much we eat.
In order to learn more about the link between eating speed and energy intake, researchers examined how eating speed affects calories consumed during a meal in both normal-weight subjects as well as overweight or obese subjects.
In the new study, a group of normal-weight subjects and a group of overweight or obese subjects were asked to consume two meals in a controlled environment. All subjects ate one meal slowly, took small bites, chewed thoroughly, and paused and put the spoon down between bites, and ate a second meal quickly, took large bites, chewed quickly, and did not pause and put the spoon down.
At the conclusion of the study, the researchers found only normal-weight subjects had a statistically significant reduction in caloric consumption by eating slowly. “A lack of statistical significance in the overweight and obese group may be partly due to the fact that they consumed less food during both eating conditions compared to the normal-weight subjects,” Professor Meena Shah said, “it is possible that the overweight and obese subjects felt more self-conscious, and thus ate less during the study.”
Despite the differences in caloric consumption between the normal-weight and overweight and obese subjects, the study found some similarities. Both groups felt less hungry later on after the slow meal than after the fast meal, which indicates that greater hunger suppression（抑制）among both groups could be expected from a meal consumed more slowly. Also, both the normal-weight and overweight or obese groups consumed more water during the slow meal. “The higher water intake during the slow eating condition may have affected food consumption,” said Shah. According to Shah, slowing the speed of eating may help suppress hunger levels and “may even improve the enjoyment of a meal”.
The findings were published in the Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.
1.What does the previous study have in common with the new one?
A. There is a link between eating speed and energy intake.
B. Eating at a slow speed may help feel hungry.
C. Eating too fast may damage your stomach.
D. Eating rate may affect processes controlling how much we eat.
2. What should the subjects do during the research?
A. Both groups could totally eat the meals at any speed as they liked.
B. Both groups had to consume one meal in controlled eating conditions.
C. Both groups were asked to eat one meal slowly while the other quickly.
D. One group should eat slowly while the other one quickly.
3. What caused the lack of statistically significant reduction in the overweight and obese group?
A. They were told not to eat a lot.
B. In the study they had no appetite to eat.
C. They lost consciousness in the study.
D. They ate less food on purpose.
4. What is the passage mainly about?
A. New research findings about how to control eating rate.
B. A study about the link between eating speed and energy intake.
C. One may feel less hungry later on after the slow meal than after the fast meal.
D. Water intake may have affected food consumption.

When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be very difficult to let go of your grudge. But forgiveness is possible and it can be surprisingly helpful to your physical and mental health. Indeed, research has shown that people who forgive have more energy, better appetite (胃口) and better sleep. “People who forgive show less anger and more hopefulness,” says Dr. Frederic Luskin, who wrote the book Forgive for Good. “So it can help save on the wear and tear(消耗) on our body and make people feel more energetic.”
So when someone has hurt you, calm down first. Take plenty of breath deeply and think of something that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, someone you love. Don’t wait for an apology. “Many times the person who hurts you may never think of apologizing,” says Dr. Luskin. “They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don’t see things the same way. So if you wait for people to apologize, you could be waiting a very long time.” Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean accepting the action of the person who makes you angry. Mentally going over your hurt gives power to the person who brought you pain. Instead, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you. Finally, try to see things from the other person’s perspective(视角). You may realize that he or she was acting out of ignorance, fear, even love. To gain perspective, you may write a letter to yourself from that person’s point of view.
1.The underl
ined word “grudge” in the first paragraph most probably means _________.
A. understanding B. forgiveness
C. pity D. anger
2.According to the wri
ter, what is the right way to calm down after being hurt?
A. Try to make sure why you get hurt.
B. Write a letter to the p
erson who hurt you.
C. Think about pleasant things and forget about the hurt.
D. Tell yourself to accept what others have done to you.
3.Dr. Luskin advises us not to wait for an apology after being hurt because ______.
A. people seldom want to apologize
B. we’d feel worse accepting others’ apology
C. we are not patient enough
D. people don’t mean it when they apologize
4.This passage is mainly written to explain _______.
A. how to keep yourself from being hurt
B. why and how to forgive others
C. how and when to stay calm
D. how to stay mentally healthy

The sun is shining when I get on No. 151 bus. We passengers sit jammed together in heavy clothes. No one speaks. That’s one of the unwritten rules of Chicago commuting. Although we see the same faces every day, we prefer to hide behind our newspapers. The phenomenon is striking: people who sit so close together are using those thin sheets of newsprint to keep their distance.
As the bus approaches the Magnificent Mile, a voice suddenly rings out: “Attention! Attention!” Papers rattle (发出细小声). Necks crane (伸长). “This is your driver speaking.”
We look at the back of the driver’s head. His voice has authority.
“All of you put your papers down.”
The papers come down, an inch at a time. The driver waits. The papers are folded and placed on our laps.
“Now, turn and face the person next to you. Go ahead.”
Amazingly, we all do it. Still, no one smiles.
I face an older woman, her head wrapped tightly in a red scarf. I see her nearly every day. Our eyes meet. We wait, unblinking, for the next order from the driver.
“Now, repeat after me…” It is a command, delivered in the tones of a drill sergeant (教官). “Good morning, neighbor!”
Our voices are weak and timid. For many of us, these are the first words we have spoken today. But we say them at the same time, like schoolchildren, to the strangers beside us.
We smile and can’t help it. We have said it; the barrier has been broken. Good morning, neighbor. It is not so hard after all. Some of us repeat it. Others shake hands. Many laugh.
The bus driver says nothing more. He doesn’t need to. Not a single newspaper goes back up. I hear laughter, a warm sound I have never heard before on bus No. 151. This day is starting off better than most.
1.On hearing the sudden utterance of “Attention!”, the passengers ___________.
A. stopped reading and put down their newspapers immediately
B. looked up from the newspapers to see who was speaking
C. sat still without response
D. were frightened
2.The underlined word “commuting” in Paragraph 1 most probably means ___________.
A. daily traveling between home and work
B. long-distance ride
C. communication technology
D. behavior patterns
3.Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. The passengers on the crowded bus were so absorbed in reading their newspapers that no one spoke.
B. The passengers were physically close together but mentally they kept each other at a terrible distance.
C. The passengers didn’t follow the driver’s instruction at first.
D. When the bus driver said nothing more, the passengers picked up and read their newspapers again.
4.What would be the best title for the text?
A. The Warmth of Communication
B. The Exchange of Information
C. The Power of Observation
D. The Attitude to Loneliness
