         Choosing the right job is probably one of the most important decisions we have to make in life,
    and it is frequently one of the hardest decisions we have to make. One important question that you
    might ask yourself is: "How do I get a good job?"    1    .
         There are people who can answer an insignificant advertisement in the local paper and land the
    best job in the world; others write to all sorts of places all over the country, and never seem to get
    a reply at all. Still others believe that the in person, door-to-door approach is by far the best way to
    get a job; and then there are those who, through no active decision of their own, just seem to be in the
    right place at the right time.    2    . He used to spend a lot of his free time down by the sea watching
    the tall ships, but never thinking that he might one day sail one of them. His father was a farmer, and
    being a sailor could never be anything for the boy but an idle dream. One day, on his usual wandering,
    he heard the captain of the ship complaining that he could not sail because one member of his crew
    was sick. Without stopping to think, the lad(少年)offered to take his place.     3    .
             4    . If the lad had gone home to consider about his decision for a week, he may have missed his
    chance. It is one thing to be offered an opportunity; it is another thing to take it and use it well.
         Sometimes we hear stories about people who break all the rules and still seem to land plum jobs
    (美差). When you go for a job interview or fill out an application, you are expected to say nice things
    about the company to which you are applying.     5    . And within a year this person had become
    general manger of the company.
    A. This story also illustrates the importance of seizing an opportunity when it presents itself.
    B. People find jobs in an infinite number of ways.
    C. it's almost impossible to find a good job by answering advertisement in newspapers
    D. Take for example the young man who wanted to be a sailor.
    E. But there was one person who landed an excellent job by telling the interviewer all the company's faults.
    F. He spent the rest of his life happily sailing the ships he had always loved.
    G. It is very important to seize an opportunity when it presents itself.

    A. Gift giving proven to be valuable
    B. Memories from gift giving
    C. Moments and events for gift giving
    D. Various functions of gift giving
    E. Gift giving as a wasteful practice
    F. Gift giving as a two-way social activity
                                                                             Gift Giving
    1.______
         There are many occasions (场合) for giving gifts in modern industrialized societies: birthdays, naming
    ceremonies, weddings, anniversaries, New Year. It is common to give gifts on many of these celebrations
    in western cultures. In addition, special events, such as one's first day of school or graduation from university,
    often require gift giving.
    2.______
         What is happening when we give gifts? Most important, we are exchanging gifts. If someone gives me
    a gift for my birthday, I know that I am usually expected to give one on his or her next birthday. A gift builds
    up or confirms a social obligation (义务).
    3.______
         Gifts tighten personal relationships and provide a means of communication between loved ones. People say
    that a gift lets the recipient (接受者) know we are thinking of them, and that we want to make the person "feel
    special." We want people to feel wanted, to feel part of our social or family group. We give presents to say
    "I'm sorry." Sometimes it is difficult for us to find a present that someone will like. Sometimes we give things
    that we like or would feel comfortable with. In all these cases, the gifts are sending out messages-often very
    expressive ones.
    4.______ 
         People tend to talk about presents in a fairly loving way. A woman whose mother had died years ago
    described the many gifts around her house. These were gifts that her mother had given her over the years:"I
    appreciate these, and they mean something to me," the woman said, "because I remember the occasions they
    were given on, and that they were from my mother, and the relationship we've had." The gifts remain and keep
    the relationship alive in mind. This woman felt the same way about the gifts she gave to others. She hoped that
    the recipients would look at her gifts in years to come and remember her.
    5.______
         Emotions (情感) like these suggest that a positive spirit still lies behind gift giving. They prove that the
    anthropologist Claude Levi-Strauss was wrong to say that modern western gift giving is highly wasteful.
    Studies in Canada and elsewhere have also shown that this is not the case. Each gift is unique even if so many
    are given. The emotional benefit for those who exchange gifts is the very reason for the tradition to continue.

         What is your favourite colour? Do you like yellow, orange, red?   1   . Do you prefer greys and blues?
    Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be pessimist. At least,
    this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the
    meaning of colour preference, as well as the effect that colours have on human beings.    2   . If you happen
    to love brown, you did so, as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly. 
           3   . A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one;
    and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day.    4   . A black bridge over the Thames
    River, near London, used to be the scene of more suicides (自杀) than any other bridge in the area-until it was
    repainted green. The number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply. Perhaps it would have fallen even
    more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue. 
           5  . It is an established fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when
    their machines are painted orange rather than black or grey.
    A. On the other hand, black is depressing.
    B. They tell us, among other facts, that we do not choose our favourite colour as grow
        up-we are born with our preference.
    C. The rooms are painted in different colours as you like.
    D. If you do, you must be an optimist, a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement.
    E. Light and bright colours make people not only happier but more active.
    F. Life is like a picture or a poem, full of different colours.
    G. Colours do influence our moods-there is no doubt about it

         ●Hi, Carolyn: It's been a bad time for my husband and me. I haven't been able to get pregnant since
    a miscarriage about a year ago, and many people around me have had babies or are getting pregnant.
      1    I have been looking for another job for months and have been on more interviews than I ever
    thought I would get. But I still don't have a new position.
             2   I know everyone has ups and downs, but I feel like I've been down so long, with nothing
    changing. How do you continue feeling hopeful when so many things go wrong? I've seen a doctor. She
    did help, but it still hurts when another friend is pregnant or wait another week with no job offer.          
    -Feeling Down
         ●Dear, Feeling down: It will hurt, yes. And if you've lost hope, then analyzing the depression is a must.
    It's so personal that it's hard to make suggestions, but what are you reliably good at, what gives you great pleasure, and what puts smiles on your face?    3   For many it's just getting to the other side, knowing
    you have a favorite book or the person you love waiting for you at the end of the day.
         Personally, being a mom also comes with difficult lows, since all kids struggle with the world and with
    their parents. It's their job. While you say "so many things go wrong," I actually count two in your
    letter-losing your baby and your job.  4   But you do have your general health, your talents, your marriage, your friends, your family, and other abilities and interests to move you forward.   5    -Carolyn
    A. I don't mean to minimize either; they're life's challenges, and you're facing both.
    B. I'm beginning to feel like I can't have things go right.
    C. Would you be so kind as to help me with my problems?
    D. My job is probably not going to last beyond spring.
    E. Whenever you need them, they are proof of your strength.
    F. For some people it's exercise; for some it's giving their time to a goal.
    G. Take a deep breath and just take it easy.

         When children celebrate a wedding anniversary for the parents, it's not just a celebration for the
    parents but for the whole family. There are many types of wedding anniversary gifts.      1    Choosing a
    gift for parents that involves the whole family makes the event more special for them.
    Budget(预算)
         Children shouldn't spend too much money on the gift. Parents usually know the financial conditions of
    their children.     2       
         Considerations
         An anniversary gift for parents should have two characteristics: customized (订制的), and something
    they can use together. It is not a good idea to choose a gift that only looks good. The gift is celebrating
    their time spent together, so it has to be something they both will enjoy.
         Family celebration
         One of the biggest achievements of parents is raising children. So some children decide to buy an
    anniversary gift that involves the entire family such as a special family vacation.      3     
         A party as a gift
             4      If it is a milestone anniversary such as a 25th or 50th wedding anniversary, some children
    choose to hold a party. The guest list includes all family members who have been close to them over the
    years.
         Family-themed gifts
         One choice is a family photo taken by a professional or even a painting created by a professional
    artist using a family photo as the image to be painted.      5   If the parents don't have a DVD player,
    the player can be included as part of the gift.
    A. Sometimes gifts don't have to be objects bought with money.
    B. Brothers and sisters can share the cost of the party.
    C. And these gifts reflect a lot of thought and effort.
    D. So the gift should be one selected specially for parents.
    E. Overspending can make parents uncomfortable and worried.
    F. This way, the family can be together to celebrate the anniversary.
    G. Another nice gift is making a DVD with old videotapes of family events.

    于选项。
         The person behind you constantly kicks the back of your seat. Your talkative seatmate doesn't
    understand your need for sleep. And the aircraft's bathroom is a total mess. These situations can make
    even a short flight unbearable .Hopefully you don't cause these unpleasant experiences for others.  1  
         Always recline(向后倾斜) your seat slowly. There's nothing worse than suddenly being hit in the
    knees by the seat in front of you. In addition, don't keep your seat reclined for the entire flight. Always
    keep it upright during mealtimes. And remember to put it in the upright position before going to the
    restroom (or anytime you leave your seat.)
           2  Wait until the meal is done and all the food trays (盘子)have been collected .It's hard for
    passengers to stand up to let you pass when they still have their food trays. And when using the
    bathroom .always clean up after yourself -the next user will be grateful !
         Keep your body-and your possessions-to yourself as much as possible so as not to crowd your
    in-flight seatmate(s) .Share the armrest , especially on a long flight .Also, be careful not to kick or push
    on the seat in front of you.
         While some people enjoy chatting with other passengers during a flight, not everyone does. Some
    people may want to nap ,read or work.  3  
         If you are traveling with someone and want to chat, keep your voices low.   4   People can still hear
    through your headphones if the volume is too high.
         When exiting the plane, if others are having trouble with their carry-on luggage .help them if you can.
    If you can't help ,wait patiently, and don't push past people to get off the airplane.On your flight ,
    remember the golden rule:   5   
    A. Don't leave your carry-on in the aircraft.
    B. If the conversation seems one-sided , you should notice it.
    C. Treat others the way you want to be treated!
    D. Avoid going to the bathroom during mealtimes.
    E. Instead ,you can set an example by following these common airplane courtesies (礼貌).
