Finding a good work-at-home job is not easy. Although you see all the online advertising, there aren't that many of them. Those that are available may require that you live in a certain area or spend at least some time in the office. Others may be only part-time jobs. Keep in mind that the skills needed for home employment are similar to those needed for working in an office. You'll also need a home office with a high speed internet connection, phone, fax, computer, printer, and other basic office equipment. To get started, consider your job search as your job. Spend as many hours per week on your job search as you would spend working. If you're looking for full-time work, you should be spending fill-time hours seeking a job. Networking (人际关系) remains the top way to find a job and it does work. Develop contacts—friends, family, even the other job seekers—anyone who might have the information you need. You can take a direct approach and ask for job information or try a less formal approach and ask for information and advice. Contact everyone you know and tell them you want to work from home. You may be surprised by the people they know and the job information they can provide.
According to the first paragraph, it is not easy to find good work-at-home jobs because ______.
A、they are seldom advertised online or in newspapers
B、they may require that you live in a certain place
C、you are always asked to work full-time
D、you need to have a college degree
1. Mistakes while learning
There will be times when you have people above you (a boss) or even next to you (a coworker) that will get really annoyed with you for “ruining” something “important”.
36__________ Even if you make mistakes and get a punishment, persevere and push on. You do not need to be embarrassed for learning from your mistakes.
2. Food choices
People are different and have different taste buds (味蕾). Whether it is healthy or not, food is a choice and it is part of life. 37__________ You do not need to be embarrassed for food you do or do not like. Tell them, “It is a personal choice I have made, and I am committed to it.”
3. Your past
Allowing positive experiences to define, limit, improve, and outshine (凸显) you may cause you to be caught up in the past and unable to truly live in the present. Whether your history is positive, negative, or somewhere in between, don’t hold on to the negative experiences and let it reflect your current behavior. 38__________
4. The clean lines of your car / home / workspaceWhen everyone gets in the car, you realize your Starbuck bags are still on the floor. So what Think about it this way: everyone has a “messy” aspect of their life. Maybe their home is completely clean, but the relationship with their spouse (配偶) is messy. Someone’s car gets washed once a week, but his/her work life could use some help.
39__________ We don’t apologize to others about our personal limitations. By being outwardly embarrassed, it only brings more attention to the fact!
5. Putting yourself first
If you find yourself saying no to something or making up lies to get out of it, tell them the truth, and don’t apologize. You will feel much better in the long run if you are honest with them and yourself. If you’re not up to a voluntary duty, you don’t have to be. You can politely refuse the person’s request.
40__________ Put yourself first.
A. It is simply a personal choice that people make for their own reasons.
B. It is okay to be selfish from time to time.
C. Errors are bound to happen when you have on your training wheels.
D. Each of them waits for your immediate help.

Many parents will say no to this demand. But experts say it might be a good idea to let your teens live with a friend or relative.
"It was the break I needed at the time," said Richard Lerner. He is talking about the time he spent living with his grandmother when he was 15.
"It allowed me to be a different person than I was with my parents." Lerner said. He now heads the Institute for Children, Youth and Families at Michigan State University.
Experts say teens living away from their families can test new ways of thinking and getting along with people. They may see new solutions (解答) to problems.
This is different from running away, the experts stress. Runaways are often fleeing serious problems.
Some teens who want some time away from family attend a structured summer program. Others live for a while with a relative or with the family of a friend.
If there is conflict (冲突) at home, having a teen live elsewhere can benefit other family members. It gives everyone space to develop better relationships.
Joseph Kett teaches history at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville. He says living at home until the late teen years has become the norm (准则) only in recent times.
"In the 17th century, children were often sent to live in other people's homes when they were about 10 or 11," he said.
Peter Sheras teaches education at the University of Virginia. He said parents should listen when a child wants to move out. They should try to find out why the child wants some time away.
Often, parents can help the child find a safe place to stay during that time. In other cases, they can meet the child's needs at home.
According to this passage, many parents think it ______ for their children to live away from them.
A．right
B．happy
C．unsafe
D．reasonable
A friend of mine had this problem and handled it in the most tactful (得体的) way I've ever seen. Instead of telling her admirer directly, she devoted herself to introducing him to every girl she knew. Whenever she had a date with him, she arranged to drop in at the home of one of her girl friends. At last he clicked (一见如故) with one of these girls, and then everyone was happy. My friend was rid of a problem and she still had the young man as a friend, which was just what she wanted him to be.
Of course this solution may not work for you. You may have your own way of dealing with the problem. But whatever you decide to do, keep one thing in mind—the boy in question has feelings every bit as sensitive as your own. So try to find a way of discouraging him without hurting him.
The best title for this passage would be______.
A．How to Make a Friend
B．Problems of Dating
C．Good Advice for Girls
D．How to Free Yourself from an Admirer
What I remember now about VE Day was the afternoon and the evening. It was a fine May day. I remember coming home at about five o'clock. My father and mother came in about an hour later. After dinner I said I wanted to see the bonfire (篝火), so when it got dark my father took me to the end of the street. The bonfire was very high, and some peo-ple had collected some old clothes to dress the unmistakable figure with the moustache (小胡子) they had put on top of it. Just as we arrived, they set light to it. The flames rose and soon covered the "guy." Everyone was cheering and shouting, and an old woman came out of her house with two chairs and threw them on the fire to keep the fire going.
I stood beside my father until the fire started to go down, not knowing what to say. He said nothing either. He had fought in the First World War and may have been remem-bering the end of that. At last he said, "Well, that's it, son. Let's hope that this time it really will be the last one. "
Where did the narrator live before the Second World War？
A．In a small city.
B．In London.
C．In Europe.
D．In the countryside.

But Japan, which hosts over 100,000 foreign students a year, is having trouble making the most of its foreign students. “I’ve been here for three years,” says a 26-year-old Chinese student in Osaka. “I don’t have any Japanese friends, I’ve never been invited to a Japanese home, and I’ve never felt very welcome here.”
That’s hardly the kind of impression that the Japanese government wants foreign students taking home to their families and classmates, but it seems to be a widespread sentiment(情感). One newspaper complained that, “If foreign students tell everyone how they hate this country when they go home, we should ask for what purpose we are hosting them to begin with.”
Many of the students arrive with hopes to learn Japanese and stay on for a few years working for a Japanese company. However, that doesn’t always work out. Many foreign students graduate from a Japanese university only to discover that “Japanese companies don’t hire foreigners because they think they cannot trust non-Japanese people,” says one job-seeker from the Philippines.
This is a problem for universities. With the Japanese birth rate one of the lowest in the world, Japanese schools are turning to foreign students to fill their classrooms.
The government has actively tried to increase the number of foreign students, up from fewer than 10,000 only 20 years ago. But, as one student in Tokyo says, “Japan’s policy is one of persuading people to come and then dissuading them from staying.”
1). According to the author, studying abroad ________.
A. does good to most foreign students and the host country
B. ensures a chance to get promoted
C. has a great effect on most foreign students
D. both A and C
2). How is life in Japan in the eyes of most foreign students？
A. Helpful and meaningful.
B. Busy yet attractive.
C. Boring and disappointing.
D. Tiring yet rewarding.
3). The word “dissuading” in the last paragraph probably means ________ .
A. discouraging
B. encouraging
C. advising
D. informing
4). Which of the following is NOT true？
A. Japan is one of the countries with the lowest birth rate worldwide.
B. The present situation in Japan lies in the slow action by the government.
C. It is almost impossible for foreign graduates to work in Japanese companies.
D. learning Japanese and having work experience are the hopes of many arrivals.
5). A suitable title for this passage might be ________.
A. Poor Reception in Japan
B. Japanese Foreign Policies
C. Japanese Shifting Population
D. Successful Careers in Japan
In knowledge and. skills South Dakota has a normal teacher combination--good, bad and the not very good. Nor does the state place enormous emphasis on academic achievements. Many schools fail to require enough homework and a proposal to require a foreign language for college entrance caused a storm of public anger. But South Dakota’s students have three things going for them: strong families, small schools and old-fashioned values.
South Dakota's marriage and birth rates are among the highest in the nation, and its divorce (离婚) rates are among the lowest. South Dakota's kids are subject to the same troubles that tempt young people elsewhere--drugs, drinking and sex. But because fewer are in pain of emotion from home situations, fewer seek these troublesome escapes.
South Dakota is also fortunate that most of its schools are small. Schools like these are often the focus of community life; there are a lot of school plays, concerts and football games in school. And as much as a fourth of a local newspaper may be school news. It must be difficult for students and teachers not to feel that all eyes are upon them.
And South Dakota enjoy the old values, everyone shares the same pattern of behaviour. A school's authority is seldom weakened by a parent, or vice versa (反之亦然).
Which of the following is mentioned about South Dakota in this passage？
A．A special combination is required by the state in selecting teachers.
B．Forty-two students won an award in a national test in 1989.
C．Teachers are not as well paid as those in other states.
D．Academic achievements are highly regarded by the state and the public.
ssible, but people eat 34 billion hamburgers a year. This is enough to make a line of hamburgers around the world four times.
The favorite place to buy hamburgers is a fast-food restaurant. In these restaurants, people order their food, wait just a few minutes, and carry it to their tables themselves. They can eat it in the restaurant or take the food out and eat it at home, at work, or in a park. At some restaurants people can drive up beside a window. They order the food, and a worker hands it to them through the window. Then they eat in their cars.
Hamburgers are not the only kind of food that fast-food restaurants serve. Some serve fish, chicken, beef sandwiches, or Mexican food. They also serve fries, shakes (a drink made from milk and ice cream) , soft drinks and coffee.
Fast-food restaurants are very popular because the service is fast and the food is inexpensive. For many people, this is more important than quality of the food. These restaurants are also popular because the food is always the same. People have known that if they eat at a company' s restaurant in the north or south of the city, the food will be the same.

A．stand up to eat
