         During my high school years, the most important thing was what I was wearing to the Friday night
    dance and who I was taking.Although college was talked about, it was the least of my worries.
         When I was graduating eighth grade and starting high school, my older brother was graduating twelfth
    grade and going onto college.For my graduation, he gave me a card in which he wrote, "Enjoy your four
    years...They go by fast." I remember not believing him then, but looking back...He was right.Those four
    years shaped who I was as a person, pushed me to my limit and encouraged me to become an adult.
         However, I was so completely absorbed in my junior and senior years of high school, that when
    someone spoke of college I brushed it off.I wasn't ready to leave my comfort zone of having all of my
    closest friends together and knowing what every single day was going to be like.Studying was something
    I did only AFTER I nailed my halftime dance performance.I knew my parents wanted me to go to college, so I told them I would go to community college (社区学院) and I didn't worry about my SAT (美国大
    学入学考试) scores.
         When my senior year passed and everyone graduated and went off to their own colleges, I started to
    wish I had done the same.My friends were living away, meeting new people, and discovering new places, while I was living at home and driving to and from class every day.It seemed exactly like high school.I
    hated it!I thought college was supposed to be different!Why didn't I take more time to research colleges
    and do the same?I ended up loving college and wishing I had four years to enjoy the campus (大学校园) atmosphere instead of two.
          My advice to anyone thinking about attending college is to think about it very seriously and look into
    all of your choices well ahead of time.Now I have graduated and I am working fulltime and I would do
    anything to go back to my high school days for a second chance!

    阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。 注意:每个空格只填一个单词。
         When you are in a place where you are hunting for a new job or career, you will find that there are several
    things needing your atten tion. Jobs and careers are fewer than you might entirely be prepared for; especially
    when satisfying employment is something you need to seriously think about. How are you going to find the job
    that you want and how are you going to avoid traps in your way? When you want to make the most out 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 your requirements such that it will negatively
    affect your life and peace of mind at a later stage. Keep in mind your basic expectations from a job. It might be
    something along the lines of increased monetary pay ment or you might find that it has something to do with
    benefits or time off. Whatever it is that you count as your basic requirements, make sure that you do not accept a job without it. Your requirements might be difficult to get, but you have all the rights to try and a chieve them.
         That being said, don't shy away from odd jobs that might actu ally take you to the place that you want to be
    in, eventually. Some- times, 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 chances is something you might want to seriously consider. You are in a place where you are thinking about moving forward, so
    don't be surprised by what route it might take to get there. As long as you keep your goals in mind, you are going to be doing much better than other people are during their job search.
         If you are looking for the right career, another thing that you can do to make sure that you get the right kind of employment is to advertise yourself. When you do nothing to push yourself forward, you will be the one
    suffering for it. If required, motivate yourself and try to look at all that you possess by way of positive traits.
    Make sure that you can present your skills and abilities in the best light possi ble. If the jobs that you have set
    your sights on are challenging, set targets for yourself and work towards them in a systematic and fo cused
    manner. The more efforts you put into marketing yourself, the better will be your chances of obtaining the job
    of your choice.
         Remember that when you are working on a job search, you should not shortchange yourself. This is because you will only hurt yourself by aiming low.
