First Job Search Tips
Keep in mind that you may not get the first job you apply for, or the second... A job search can take time, especially if you don't have much experience. Here's how to ensure you're a top-notch candidate for the jobs you are applying for.
Be Persistent. Wait a few days, then follow-up your application with a phone call to the hiring manager reiterating your interest. If you have applied in person, stop in again and mention that you are really interested in the opportunity.
Don't Stop. Don't apply at one place and wait for the phone to ring. Complete as many job applications as you can, and consider a variety of positions.  小題1:   .
  小題2:   . Applicants who are only available for limited hours are less likely to get hired than those who are flexible as to when they can work. For example, one candidate for a summer job told the employer that they were only available on Wednesday afternoons and Saturday mornings. Compare that to another applicant who selected "any" on the Hours Available section of the job applicant and you can see why the second applicant got the job.
Use Your Connections.  小題3:    . Does your mom shop regularly at the store where you'd like to work? If so, have her mention that you're looking for a job. That's how I got my first job and how my brother got his first job at the drug store across the street.
Dress Appropriately. When applying for jobs, dress as though you had the job. If you're applying for a retail position, for example, visit the store before you apply to see what the staff is wearing.
  小題4:    . When in doubt, dress up, not down.
Don't Give Up. Job searching isn't easy, especially when you don't have much experience or many skills.  小題5:    . Your first job will be a stepping stone to your next job - and to your future career.
A.Don’t stop to look for a job.
B.The more you apply, the better chance you have of finding a job.
C.Be Flexible.
D.It will give you an idea as to how you should dress.
E.You shouldn’t apply for different jobs at the same time.
F.If you have a connection, use it.
G. Keep trying and keep applying and you will find a job.

小題1:B
小題2:C
小題3:F
小題4:D
小題5:G

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從下框的A---F選項(xiàng)中選出能概括每一段主題的最佳選項(xiàng),并在答題卡上將該選項(xiàng)涂黑。 選項(xiàng)中有一項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。
A. Current reviews and suggestions
B. Commercial pressures on people in charge
C. Mixed views on current changes to museums
D. Collections of factual evidence
E. Interpreting the facts to meet visitor expectations
F. Fewer differences between public attractions
小題1:              
It was convinced that historical relics provide evidence about the past. Such conviction was, until recently, reflected in museum displays. Museums used to look - and some still do - much like storage rooms of objects packed together in showcases: good for scholars to study, but not for the average visitor, to whom it all looked alike.
小題2:                
Recently, however, attitudes towards history and the way it should be presented have become different. The key word in heritage display is now ‘experience’, the more exciting the better and, if possible, involving all the senses. On so called heritage sites computers will soon provide reality experiences, which will present visitors with a vivid image of the period of their choice, in which they themselves can act as if part of the historical environment. Such developments have been criticized by some experts, but the success of many historical theme parks suggests that the majority of the public does not share this opinion.
小題3:                 
In a related development, the sharp distinction between museum and heritage sites on the one hand, and theme parks on the other is gradually evaporating(蒸發(fā)). They already borrow ideas and concepts from one another. For example, museums have adopted storylines for exhibitions, sites have accepted ‘theming’ as a relevant tool, and theme parks are moving towards more realness and research-based presentations.
小題4:                 
Theme parks are undergoing other changes, too, as they try to present more serious social and cultural issues, and move away from fantasy. This development is a response to market forces and exhibits must be both based on artifacts and facts as we know them, and attractively presented. Those who are professionally working in the art of interpreting(詮釋) history are thus in a difficult position, as they must manage a narrow course between the demands of ‘evidence’ and ‘a(chǎn)ttractiveness’, especially given the increasing need in this industry for income making activities.
小題5:                 
It could be claimed that in order to make everything in heritage more ‘real’, historical accuracy must be increasingly changed. For example, in the Museum of Natural History in Washington, Neanderthal man is shown making a commanding gesture to his wife. Such presentations tell us more about contemporary understandings of the world than about our ancestors. In fact if the professionals did not provide the interpretation, visitors would do it for themselves, based on their own ideas, misconceptions and prejudices. And no matter how exciting the result, it would contain a lot more bias(偏見) than the presentations provided by experts.

Doctors say anger can be an extremely damaging emotion, unless you learn how to deal with it. They warn that anger can lead to heart disease, stomach problems, headaches, emotional problems and possibly cancer.
___小題1:___ Some people express anger openly in a calm reasonable way. Others burst with anger, and scream and yell. But other people keep their anger inside. They can not or will not express it. This is called repressing anger.
For years many doctors thought that repressing anger was more dangerous to a person’s health than expressing it. They said that when a person is angry, the brain releases the same hormones (荷爾蒙). They speed the heart rate, raise blood pressure, or sugar into the blood, etc. ___小題2:___
Some doctors say that both repressing and expressing anger can be dangerous. They believe that those who express anger violently may be more likely to develop heart disease, and they believe that those who keep anger inside may face a greater danger of high blood pressure.
___小題3:___ They say the first step is to admit that you are angry and to recognize the real cause of the anger, then decide if the cause is serious enough to get angry about. If it is, they say, “___小題4:___ Wait until your anger has cooled down and you are able to express yourself calmly and reasonably.”
