job seekers protect themselves while continuing to circulate their resumes online? The key to a 保护他们自己当持续在网上传递他们的简历时。

successful online job search is learning to manager the risks. Here are some tips for staying safe 成功的网上工作搜索的关键是学着去经营这些冒险。这儿是一些建议关于保持安全当

while conducting a job search on the Internet.

在互联网上搜索一个工作时。

1. Check for a privacy policy.

If you are considering posting your resume online, make sure the job search site your are considering has a privacy policy, like https://www.360docs.net/doc/939295792.html,. The policy should spell out how your information will be used, stored and whether or not it will be shared. Y ou may want to think twice about posting your resume on a site that automatically shares your information with others. Y ou could be opening yourself up to unwanted calls from solicitors (推销员).

When reviewing the site’s privacy policy, you’ll be able to delete your resume just as easily as you posted it. Y ou won’t necessarily want your resume to remain out there on the Internet once you land a job. Remember, the longer your resume remains posted on a job board, the more exposure, both positive and not-so-positive, it will receive.

2. Take advantage of site features.

Lawful job search sites offer levels of privacy protection. Before posting your resume, carefully consider your job search objective and the level of risk you are willing to assume.

https://www.360docs.net/doc/939295792.html,, for example, offers three levels of privacy from which job seekers can choose. The first is standard posting. This option gives job seekers who post their resumes the most visibility to the broadest employer audience possible.

The second is anonymous (匿名的) posting. This allows job seekers the same visibility as those in the standard posting category without any of their contact information being displayed. Job seekers who wish to remain anonymous but want to share some other information may choose which pieces of contact information to display.

The third is private posting. This option allows a job seeker to post a resume without having it searched by employers. Private posting allows job seekers to quickly and easily apply for jobs that appear on https://www.360docs.net/doc/939295792.html, without retyping their information.

3. Safeguard your identity.

Career experts say that one of the ways job seekers can stay safe while using the Internet to search out jobs is to conceal their identities. Replace your name on your resume with a generic(泛指的) identifier, such as ―Intranet Developer Candidate,‖ or ―Experienced Marketing Representative.‖Y ou should also consider eliminating the name and location of your current employer. Depending on your title, it may not be all that difficult to determine who you are once the name of your company is provided. Use a general description of the company such as ―Major auto manufacturer,‖or ―International packaged goods supplier.‖

If your job title is unique, consider using the generic equivalent instead of the exact title assigned by your employer.

4. Establish and email address for your search.

Another way to protect your privacy while seeking employment online is to open up an email account specifically for your online job search. This will safeguard your existing email box in the event someone you don’t know gets hold of your email address and shares it with others.

Using an email address specifically for you job search also eliminates the possibility that you will receive unwelcome emails in your primary mailbox. When naming your new email address, be sure that it doesn’t contain references to your name or other information that will give away your identity. The best solution is an email address that is relevant to the job you are seeking such as salesmgr2004@https://www.360docs.net/doc/939295792.html,.

5. Protect your reference.

If your resume contains a section with the names and contact information of your references, take it out. There’s no sense in safeguarding your information while sharing private contact information of your references.

6. Keep confidential (机密的) information confidential.

Do not, under any circumstances, share your social security, driver’s license, and bank account numbers or other personal information, such as race or eye color. Honest employers do not need this information with an initial application. Don’t provide this even if they say they need it in order to conduct a background check. This is one of the oldest tricks in the book – don’t fall for it.

注意：此部分试题请在答题卡1上作答。

1. Robert Ellis Smith believes identity theft is difficult to detect and one can hardly do anything to

prevent it.

2. In many cases, identity theft not only causes the victims’immediate financial losses but costs them

a lot to restore their reputation.

3. Identity theft is a minor offence and its harm has been somewhat overestimated.

4. It is important that your resume not stay online longer than is necessary.

5. Of the three options offered by https://www.360docs.net/doc/939295792.html, in Suggestion 2, the third one is apparently most

strongly recommended.

6. Employers require applicants to submit very personal information on background checks.

7. Applicants are advised to use generic names for themselves and their current employers when

seeking employment online.

8. Using a special email address in the job search can help prevent your from receiving ________.

9. To protect your references, you should not post online their ________.

10. According to the passage, identity theft is committed typically for ________.

Section B

Directions:There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D).

You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet

2 with a single line through the centre.

Passage One

Questions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.

I’ve been writing for most of my life. The book Writing Without Teachers introduced me to one distinction and one practice that has helped my writing processes tremendously. The distinction is between the creative mind and the critical mind. While you need to employ both to get to a finished result, they cannot work in parallel no matter how much we might like to think so.

Trying to criticize writing on the fly is possibly the single greatest barrier to writing that most of us encounter. If you are listening to that 5th grade English teacher correct your grammar while you are trying to capture a fleeting(稍纵即逝的) thought, the thought will die. If you capture the fleeting thought and simply share it with the world in raw form, no one is likely to understand. Y ou must learn to create first and then criticize if you want to make writing the tool for thinking that it is.

The practice that can help you past your learned bad habits of trying to edit as you write is what Elbow calls ―free writing.‖ In free writing, the objective is to get words down on paper non-stop, usually for 15-20 minutes. No stopping, no going back, no criticizing. The goal is to get the words flowing. As the words begin to flow, the ideas will come from the shadows and let themselves be captured on your notepad or your screen.

Now you have raw materials that you can begin to work with using the critical mind that you’ve persuaded to sit on the side and watch quietly. Most likely, you will believe that this will take more time than you actually have and you will end up staring blankly at the pages as the deadline draws near.

Instead of staring at a blank start filling it with words no matter how bad. Halfway through you

available time, stop and rework your raw writing into something closer to finished product. Move back and forth until you run out of time and the final result will most likely be far better than your current practices.

注意：此部分试题请在答题卡2上作答。

C) they are in constant conflict with each other

D) one cannot use them at the same time

58. What prevents people from writing on is ________.

D) trying to capture fleeting thoughts

59. What is the chief objective of the first stage of writing?

61. In what way does the critical mind help the writer in the writing process?

A) It refines his writing into better shape.

B) It helps him to come up with new ideas.

C) It saves the writing time available to him.

D) It allows him to sit on the side and observe.

Passage Two

I don’t ever want to talk about being a woman scientist again. There was a time in my life when people asked constantly for stories about what it’s like to work in a field dominated by men. I was never very good at telling those stories because truthfully I never found them interesting. What I do find

interesting is the origin of the universe, the shape of space-time and the nature of black holes.

At 19, when I began studying astrophysics, it did not bother me in the least to be the only woman in the classroom. But while earning my Ph.D. at MIT and then as a post-doctor doing space research, the issue started to bother me. My every achievement—jobs, research papers, awards—was viewed through the lens of gender (性别) politics. So were my failures. Sometimes, when I was pushed into an argument on left brain versus (相对于) right brain, or nature versus nurture (培育), I would instantly fight fiercely on my behalf and all womankind.

Then one day a few years ago, out of my mouth came a sentence that would eventually become my reply to any and all provocations: I don’t talk about that anymore. It took me 10 years to get back the confidence I had at 19 and to realize that I didn’t want to deal with gender issues. Why should curing sexism be yet another terrible burden on every female scientist? After all, I don’t study sociology or political theory.

Today I research and teach at Barnard, a women’s college in New Y ork City. Recently, someone asked me how may of the 45 students in my class were women. Y ou cannot imagine my satisfaction at being able to answer, 45. I know some of my students worry how they will manage their scientific research and a desire for children. And I don’t dismiss those concerns. Still, I don’t tell them ―war‖stories. Instead, I have given them this: the visual of their physics professor heavily pregnant doing physics experiments. And in turn they have given me the image of 45 women driven by a love of science. And that’s a sight worth talking about.

62. Why doesn’t the author want to talk about being a woman scientist again?

A) She feels unhappy working in male-dominated fields.

B) She is fed up with the issue of gender discrimination.

C) She is not good at telling stories of the kind.

D) She finds space research more important.

63. From Paragraph 2, we can infer that people would attribute the author’s failures to ________.

A) the very fact that she is a woman

B) her involvement in gender politics

C) her over-confidence as a female astrophysicist

D) the burden she bears in a male-dominated society

64. What did the author constantly fight against while doing her Ph.D. and post-doctoral research?

A) Lack of confidence in succeeding in space science.

B) Unfair accusations from both inside and outside her circle.

C) People’s stereotyped attitude toward female scientists.

D) Widespread misconceptions about nature and nurtured.

65. Why does the author feel great satisfaction when talking about her class?

A) Female students no longer have to bother about gender issues.

B) Her students’ performance has brought back her confidence.

C) Her female students can do just as well as male students.

D) More female students are pursuing science than before.

66. What does the image the author presents to her students suggest?

A) Women students needn’t have the concerns of her generation.

B) Women have more barriers on their way to academic success.

C) Women can balance a career in science and having a family.

D) Women now have fewer problems pursuing a science career.

Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)

1．【答案】Y

【解析】本题的定位信息是Robert Ellis Smith。此题考查的是Robert Ellis Smith对身份盗窃问题的看法。答案来自第三段最后一句It affects everybody, there’s very little you can do to prevent it and, worst of all, you can’t detect it until it’s probably too late. 意思是：身份盗窃影响到每一个人，人们对此却无能为力，最糟糕的是，当人们发现身份信息被窃取时，可能已经为时已晚。因此题干―Robert Ellis Smith认为很难发现身份盗窃，而且对于防止身份盗窃人们几乎是无能为力。‖表述正确，所以答案为Y。

2．【答案】Y

【解析】本题的定位信息是financial losses 和restore their reputation。此题考查的是身份信息被窃取给受害人带来的损失。答案来自第四段最后一句…a victim’s losses may include not only out-of-pocket financial losses, but substantial additional financial costs associated with trying to restore his reputation …意思是：受害人的损失不仅包括金钱上的损失，而且受害人在试图恢复声誉时，还要承担大量的其他经济损失。因此题干―在很多情况下，身份盗窃不仅会引起受害者的直接经济损失，而且在他们恢复声誉时，还要承担大量的其他损失。‖表述正确，所以答案为Y。

3．【答案】N

【解析】本题考查的是身份窃取案件的严重性。答案来自第二段…as many as 750,000 Americans are victims of

identity theft every year. And that number may be low, as many people choose not to report the crime even if they know they have been victimized. 意思是：美国每年身份信息被窃取的人数高达75万，这有可能只是保守的估计，因为

有些人即使被窃取了身份信息，也不去报警。另外文章第五段的第一句话…identity theft is the number one fraud committed on the Internet.意思是：个人信息欺诈是最多的一种网上欺诈行为。因此题干―身份盗窃是轻罪，它造成的危害被过分夸大了。‖表述不正确，答案为N。

4．【答案】Y

【解析】本题的定位信息是resume 和longer。此题考查的是发布个人简历的时间。答案来自第一个小标题下的第二段第二句和第三句You won’t necessarily want your resu me to remain out there on the Internet once you land a job. … the longer your resume remains posted on a job board, the more exposure… it will receive. 意思是：一旦找到了工作，就不必再将简历保留在网上。……简历在网站上发布的时间越久，自己的私人信息暴露得就会越多。因此题干―简历发布在网络上的时间不宜过长是很重要的。‖表述正确，所以答案为Y。

5．【答案】NG

【解析】本题的定位信息是Suggestion 2。此题考查第二条建议的内容。在第二条建议里文章首先提出合法的求职网站能够提供不同级别的隐私保护，然后作者以https://www.360docs.net/doc/939295792.html,为例，介绍了三种不同级别的隐私保护条款。通读这部分文章并没有重点强调哪一种条款，题干中的the third one is apparently most strongly recommended 在文章找不到任何依据，因此答案为NG。

6．【答案】N

【解析】本题的定位信息是background checks。此题考查求职时雇主是否会索要个人隐私信息。答案来自第六个标题下的第三句，此题的考查点体现在第二句话上Honest employers do not need this information with an initial application. 意思是：真正的雇主在求职人初次申请工作时并不索要这些信息。因此题干―雇主要求申请者把个人信息提交到背景栏中。‖表述不正确，因此答案为N。

7．【答案】Y

【解析】本题的定位信息是generic names。此题考查求职者保护个人隐私信息的方法。答案来自第三个小标题下第一段的最后一句和第二段首句Replace your name on your resume with a generic (泛指的) identifier….You should also consider eliminating the name and location of your current employer. 意思是：在简历上改换姓名，使用一些泛指的称呼。求职者也应该考虑删除现在的雇主的姓名和现住址。因此题干―建议申请者在网上求职时把自己和现在的雇主都使用泛指的称呼。表述正确，答案为Y。

8．【答案】unwelcome emails

【解析】本题的定位信息是special email address。答案来自第四个小标题下第二段的首句Using an email address specifically for your job search also eliminates the possibility that you will receive unwelcome emails in your primary mailbox. 意思是：开立一个专门用来进行网上求职的电子邮箱，这样可以使自己常用的邮箱免受垃圾邮件的骚扰。题干问：开立一个专门用来进行网上求职的电子邮箱可以帮助防止收到什么？名词短语unwelcome emails是正确答案。

9．【答案】names and contact information或private contact information

【解析】本题的定位信息是protect your references。答案来自第五个小标题If your resume contains a section with the names and contact inform ation of your references, take it out. There’s no sense in safeguarding your information while

sharing private contact information of your references. 意思是：如果你的简历含有你的名字和联系方式等信息，就要把它拿掉。一面公布联络方式，一面保护个人信息是毫无意义的。题干问：为了保护个人信息，不要把什么贴到网络上？名词短语names and contact information或private contact information是正确答案。

10．【答案】economic gain

【解析】此题的关键词是typically for。此题考查的是窃取身份信息的目的，答案来自文章的首段，在此介绍了窃取身份信息的目的Identity theft … typically for economic gain. 意思是：身份窃取通常是以获得经济利益为目的。题干问：根据本文，身份窃取通常是为了什么？名词短语economic gain是正确答案。

Part III Listening Comprehension

11. W: Did you watch the 7 o’clock program on Channel 2 yesterday evening? I was about to watch it when someone came to see me.

M: Yeah! It reported some major breakthrough in cancer research. People over 40 would find the program worth watching.

Q: What do we learn from the conversation about the TV program?

【答案】C

【解析】选项A，B表明该对话与癌症有关，选项C，D提到viewer(观看者)，commercial(广告)，我们可以猜到该对话同时又可能与某电视节目有关。对话中女士问起昨晚2频道的电视节目，男士回答说是有关癌症研究重要突破（major breakthrough）的报道，超过40岁的人会发现这个节目值得一看(worth watching)。选项A、B中均出现了cancer一词，但描述都不够准确, 只有选项C表达了男士对节目的评价。因此，答案为C。

12. W: I won a first prize in the National Writing Contest and I got this camera as an award.

M: It’s a good camera! You can take it when you travel. I had no idea you were a marvelous writer.

Q: What do we learn from the conversation?

【答案】D

【解析】选项A, B, C 提到摄影和旅游，只有选项D和前三个选项不一致，我们在听音的时候可能会更注重选项D。对话中女士说自己在全国写作比赛中得了一等奖（the first prize），并赢得了一部照相机。男士称赞了相机后说I had no idea you were a marvelous writer. (我不知道你是个这么优秀的作者)。表示男士非常羡慕女士写作方面的才能。故答案为D。

13. M: I wish I hadn’t thrown away that reading list!

W: I thought you might regret it. That’s why I picked it up from the waste paper basket and left it on the desk.

Q: What do we learn from the conversation?
