19.When you are in a place where you are hunting for a new job or a career,you will find that there are several things that you should pay attention to.Jobs and careers are fewer than you expect,especially when satisfying employment is something you need to seriously think about.How are you going to find the job that you want and what should you avoid on your way?When you want to make use of your job search,take a moment and think about the things that you must avoid at all costs.
One of the most important rules is never to compromise on the things you ask for or desire or it will badly affect your life and peace of mind.Keep in mind your basic expectations of a dream job.They might be something about money or you might find they have something to do with time off.Whatever they are,make sure that you do not accept a job without them.Your requirements might not be easy to meet,but you have the right to try and achieve them.
What's more,don't shy away from odd(临时的)jobs that might actually take you to the place that you want to be in.Sometimes,finding the right job is a matter of luck and chance after you have been searching and putting in a lot of efforts.And if something unexpected happens,remember that taking the chance is of great importance and is something you might want to seriously consider.As long as you keep your goals in mind,you are going to be doing much better than other people during the job search.
If you are looking for the right job,another thing that you can do to make sure that you get the right kind of employment is to market yourself.When you do nothing to push yourself forward,you will be the one suffering for it.If required,give enough encouragement to yourself and try to confidently look at all that you have.Make sure that you can show your skills and abilities.If the jobs that you have set your sights on are challenging,set goals for yourself and work hard at them.The more efforts you put in marketing yourself,the more your chances of obtaining the job you like there will be.
Remember that when you are working on a job search,you should not short-change yourself.This is because you will only harm yourself by setting low goals.

6.We're in the middle of winter.It's cold and we're suffering from cold wind and rain.The sun,even when it does show its face,is setting at 4p.m.It's no wonder people in the street look sad.
But according to most of the research on the connection between weather and mood(情绪),they shouldn't be.Weather has little effect on mood.
When you tell people this,though,they don't believe it.Most of us think the weather has quite a strong effect on our mood.Many think that the rain and cold weather dejects us and the sun and warmth cheers us up.
So why don't we see this effect in the research?That's the question a new study by Klimstra et al.tries to answer with a group of young people and their mothers.In fact,Klimstra et al.found four different groups:
1.Unaffected:about half the people in their study fell into this group.For these people it didn't matter that much whether it was raining  or sunny,hot or cold,their mood was mostly unaffected.
2.Summer lovers:here's the group you'd expect.For these people,their mood improved with less rain,more sun and higher temperatures(15% of young people and 30% of their mothers).
3.Summer haters:here's the group of people you hear less about.These were the exact opposite of the summer lovers so they were happier when there was more rain,less sun and lower temperatures (27% of the young people and 12% of their mothers).
4.Rain haters:this group's mood didn't change with the temperature,sunshine or the wind;they just hated the rain(8% of young people and 12% of their mothers).
This helps explain why studies keep finding that weather doesn't have much effect on mood:it's because we're different and these differences are mostly being averaged out.

32.It's found in the study thatD.
A.weather has a strong effect on mood
B.cold wind and rain makes us look sad
C.the sun and warmth cheers us up
D.mood is little affected by weather
33.The underlined word"dejects"in the third paragraph probably meansC.
A.make sb.happy                B.make sb.Angry
C. make sb.Sad                 D.make sb.silly
34.From the four different groups we can learnD.
A.about half the people belong to summer lovers
B.more than one third of the people are summer haters
C.few of young people and their mothers like the rain
D.more young people are unaffected than rain haters
35.What is the BEST title for the passage?B
A.Why do people feel sad in cold winter?
B.Does the weather really affect your mood?
C.How many different groups are there?
D.Do different people have different mood?

3.Forgiveness is really a gift we give to ourselves.A (61)poweful(power)way of forgiving is to see past the adult behavior to the little innocent child within the person we would like to forgive.
Betty was having a particularly hard time because her father had acted wrongly.Yet(62)continuing(continue)to hate him was causing much unhappiness in Betty's life.
I asked her to find a picture of her father as a young child and put it in a place (63)whereshe could see it often.She found a photo of him(64)taken(take)at the age of six.As she more and more studied the photo,she began to see the sadness and loneliness in his eyes.A month (65)1ater(late),Betty found a photo of her father at ten years old.His eyes were still full(66)ofsadness and loneliness.Through studying these(67)photos(photo),Betty was able to feel compassion(同情)for her father's childhood.This compassion did not make her father's actions right,(68)but Betty could now understand the pain in her father.Betty's heart was free of the itterness and hatred(憎恨)she(69)had carried(carry)for most of her life.Forgiveness for her father was a gift she gave to herself.
Perhaps there are similar gifts you could give yourself.You should (70)fully(full)feel your love and not have it covered by past hatred.

9.High school dropouts (辍学者) earn an average of $9,000 less per year than graduates.
Now a new study moves away a common belief why they quit.It's much more than failing in
exams at school.
Society tends to think of high school dropouts as kids who just can't cut it.They are lazy,and perhaps not too bright.So researchers were surprised when they asked more than 450kids who quit school about why they left.
"The vast majority actually had passing grades and they were confident that they could have graduated from high school."John Bridgeland,the executive researcher said.About one million teens leave school each year.Only about half of African-American and Hispanic students will receive a diploma,and actually all dropouts come to regret their decision.So,if failing grades don't explain why these kids quit,what does?Again,John Bridgeland:"The most dependable finding was that they were bored.""They found classes uninteresting; they weren't inspired or motivated.They didn't see any direct connection between what they were learning in the classroom to their own lives,or to their career aspirations."The study found that most teens who do drop out wait until they turn sixteen,which happens to be the age at which most states allow students to quit.In the US,only one state,
New Mexico,has a law requiring teenagers to stay in high school until they graduate.Only
four states:California,Tennessee,Texas and Utah,plus tile District of Columbia,require
school attendance until age 18,no exceptions,another researcher,says raising tile compulsory attendance age may be one way to keep more kids in school.
"As these dropouts look back,they realize they've made a mistake.And anything that sort of gives these people an extra push to stick it out and it through to the end,is probably helpful measure."
New Hampshire may be the next state to raise its school attendance age to 18.But critics
say that forcing the students unwilling to continue their studies to stay in school misses the point--the need for reform.It's been called for to reinvent high school education to make it more challenging and relevant,and to ensure that kids who do stick it out receive a diploma that actually means something.
(Note:Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN 10WORDS)

81.What do people think of those who quit school?Lazy and not bright
82.Many students quit school not because they cannot pass grades but because they find
Lessonsuninteresting and not relevant to real life
83.Why don't some students quit until they are sixteen?Because that's the age to be allowed to quit
84.According to the passage,the more effective way to keep students from quitting is to
reform or reinvent high school education.
