He is only according to one of his former employers, too eager for the work that his employers hasn’t intention to let him do. One fact about Matt is that he never waits long to find a new job. Last month, he was fired again. Mr.King the owner of a small shop hired to paint his new house. He readily accepted the job without a word. When later Mr.King went to see how things were going on there, he couldn’t find Matt instead he saw four workmen carefully painting the wall. “ What’s the matte?” he wondered. “Hi, Mr.King!” he heard M att’s voice calling from behind. “ They are working hard, aren’t they?” Mr.King turned back. He saw Matt smiling at him. “ What happened, Matt? And why are these works here?” Mr.King asked. “ I’ve hired them at 8dollars for each man.” Matt told him happily. “ But I will only pay 30dollars for the whole work.” Mr.King couldn’t understand. “I know, Mr. King. But just think. I only need to pay another two dollars and then can enjoy the happy feeling of being a boss. Isn’t it worth the money?”

Have you ever picked a job based on the fact that you were good at it but later found it made you feel very uncomfortable over time? When you select your career, there's a whole lot more to it than assessing your skills and matching them with a particular position. If you ignore your personality, it will hurt you long-term regardless of your skills or the job's pay. There are several areas of your personality that you need to consider to help you find a good job. Here are a few of those main areas;

1) Do you prefer working alone or with other people?

There are isolating（使孤立）jobs that will drive an outgoing person crazy and also interactive jobs that will make a shy person uneasy. Most people are not extremes in either direction but do have a tendency that they prefer. There are also positions that are sometimes a combination of the two, which may be best for someone in the middle who adapts easily to either situation.

2) How do you handle change?

Most jobs these days have some elements of change to them, but some are more than others. If you need stability in your life, you may need a job where the changes don't happen so often. Other people would be bored of the same daily routine.

3) Do you enjoy working with computers？

I do see this as a kind of personality characteristic. There are people who are happy to spend more than 40 hours a week on a computer, while there are others who need a lot of human interaction throughout the day. Again, these are extremes and you'll likely find a lot of positions somewhere in the middle as well.

4) What type of work environment do you enjoy？

This can range from being in a large building with a lot of people you won't know immediately to a smaller setting where you'll get to know almost all the people there fairly quickly.

5) How do you like to get paid?

Some people are motivated by the pay they get, while others feel too stressed to be like that. The variety of payment designs in the sales industry is a typical example for this.

Anyway, these are a great starting point for you. I've seen it over and over again with people that they make more money over time when they do something they love. It may take you a little longer, but making a move to do what you have a passion for can change the course of your life for the better.

45. What is unnecessary in your job hunting?

A. Assessing your skills

B. Going to different areas

C. Matching your skills with a position

D. taking your personality into consideration

46. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. Isolating jobs usually drive people mad.

B. Interactive jobs make people shy easily.

C. Extreme people tend to work with others.

D. Almost everyone has a tendency in jobs.

47. What does the underlined sentence in paragraph one mean?

A. Before you select your job, you should assess your skills and match them with your position

B. There are more important things than assessing skills and match them with the position when you select job.

C. Nothing is important than assessing skills and match them with the position when you select job.

D You should ignore your skills when you select job.

48. What is the missing word about a job search in the following chart?

49.What is the best title for this passage?

A. Lifestyles and Job Pay

B. Jobs and Environment

C. Job Skills and Abilities

D. Personalities and Jobs

C

At first, the earth’s surface layer (层) was made up of huge blocks of hard, solid rocks. There slowly, the rocks broke up into smaller and smaller pieces. Finally stones, pebble(卵石) and grains of sand were formed. Many sorts of plants and animals lived and died on the surface of the earth. They remain mixed up with the stones, pebbles and formed soil. The outmost layer of the earth is soil.

There are many ways in which large pieces of rock break into smaller ones. Wind, water, heat and cold help to break up rocks. When winds blow grains of sand against a large rock for a long time, the softer layer of the rock are slowly worn away. These leave holes and crack(裂缝) in the rock, which become bigger and finally the rock breaks up into smaller pieces.

The moving water of streams and rivers also help to break up rocks. As the water moves along, it carries with it small pieces of rock. These rub the larger ones. Thus, the larger rocks are worn down to smaller pieces.

The heat of the sun also help to breaking up rocks. When the sun shines, the rocks become very hot. If these rocks are suddenly cooled, they may crack. Ice also plays a part in making soil. Water in the cracks can turn into ice in cold weather. As this happens, it becomes bigger and

cracks become wider, and finally break into smaller pieces.

50．According to the passage, soil__

A．forms very slowly B．is a mixture of stones, pebbles and sand

C．makes up the layers of the earth D．is becoming smaller and smaller 51．Which of the following speeds up the break of rocks most?

A．Hot weather．B．Cold water．

C．Sharp changes in temperature．D．More dead plants in the cracks．

52. What does the underlined word in paragraph one mean?

A the fist layer of the surface

B the furthest layer

C .the middle layer

D the thinnest layer

53．Which of the following is NOT true?'

A．The remains of many plants of animals formed' soil．

B．If a large rock never moves, it will never break up．

C．Even if a large rock never moves, it will break up．

D．Ice in the cracks helps to break up rocks,

54．The best title for this passage should be ___ .

A．Soil from Rocks B．Ways to Break up Rocks

C．Soil on die Earth D．Soil, Outmost Layer of the Earth

D

Never-say-die Attitude

In 1883, a creative engineer named John Roebling was inspired by an idea to build a spectacular bridge connecting New York with the Long Island. However, bridge building experts throughtout the world thought that this was an impossible feat and told Roebling to forget the idea．It just could not be done. It was not practical．It had never been done before.

Roebling could not ignore the vision he had in his mind of this bridge. He thought about it all the time and he knew deep in his heart that it could be done. He just had to share the dream with someone else. After much discussion and persuasion he managed to convince his son Washington，an up-and-coming engineer, tha t the bridge in fact could be built.

Working together for the first time, the father and son developed concepts of how it could be accomplished and how the obstacles could be overcome. With great excitement and inspiration, and headiness of a wild challenge before them, they hired their crew and began to build their dream bridge.

The project started well, but when it was only a few months underway a tregic accident on the site took the life of John Roebling. Washington was injured and left with certain account of brain damage, which resulted in him not being able to walk or talk or even move.

“We told them so.”

“Crazy men and their crazy dreams.”

“It’s foolish to chase wild visions.”

Everyone had a negative comment to make and felt that the project should be scraped since the Roeblings were the only ones who knew how the bridge could be built. In spite of his handicap, Washington was never discouraged and still had burning desire to complete the bridge and his mind was still as sharp as ever.

He tried to inspire and pass on his enthusiasm to some of his friends, but they were too daunted by the task．As he lay on his bed in his hospital room，with the sunlight streaming through

the windows, a gentle breeze blew the white curtains apart and he was able to see the sky and the top of the trees outside for just a moment. It seemed that there was a message for him not to give up. Suddenly an idea hit him. All he could do was move one finger and decided to make the best use of it. By moving this, he slowly developed a code of communication with his wife.

He touched his wife’s arm with that finger, indicating to her he wanted her to call the engineers again. Then he used the same method of tapping her arm to tell the engineers what to do. It seemed foolish but the project was under way again.

For 13 years Washington tapped out his instructions with his finger on his wife’s arm until the bridge was finally completed. Today the spectacular Brooklyn Bridge stands in all its glory as a t ribute of one’s indomitable spirit and his determination not to be defeated by circumstances. It is also a tribute to the engineers and their team work, and to their faith in a man who was considered mad by half the world. It stands too as a monument to the love and devotion of his wife who for 13 years patiently decoded the message of her husband and told the engineers what to do.

Perhaps this is one of the best example of a never-say-die attitude that overcomes a terrible physical handicap and achieves an impossible goal.

One possible version:

Qiqiao Festival, on the 7th day of the 7th lunar month, is a traditional festival full of romance. It comes from the beautiful Chinese love story about Niulang and Zhinu, who meet each other once a year on this day. Chinese people have been celebrating this festival since the Han Dynasty. I believe it a good idea to make this festival a legal holiday since it is part of our traditional culture. The long history and the way it is celebrated tell people what true love is and show how we value love in a Chinese way. It’s wrong for young people only to seek western festivals but forget all about our own.
