那么该如何在找工作时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 . The policy should spell out how your information will be used, stored and whether or not it will be shared. You may want to think twice about posting your resume on a site that automatically shares your information with others. You 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. You 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., 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 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.”You 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 emailaccount 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 *************************.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。

At 16, she graduated first in her high school class, went on to secretarial school and finally worked as an executive secretary for a railroad company. She was beautiful, too. When a local photographer used her pictures in his monthly window display, she felt pleased. Her favorite portrait showed her sitting by Lake Michigan, her hair wind-blown, her gaze reaching toward the horizon. My patents were married in 1944. Dad was a quiet and intelligent man. He was 17 when he left Italy. Soon after, a hit-and-run accident left him with a permanent limp. (27) Dad worked hard selling candy to Chicago office workers on their break. He had little formal schooling. His English was self-taught.Y et, he eventually built a small successful wholesale candy business. Dad was generous and handsome. Mama was devoted to him. (28) After she married, my mother quit her job and gave herself to her family. In 1950, with 3 small children, Dad moved the family to a farm 40 miles from Chicago. He worked at land and commuted to the city to run his business. Mama said goodbye to her parents and friends and traded her busy city neighborhood for a more isolated life. But she never complained.

What does the speaker say about his mother?D)Passage T woDuring a 1995 roof collapse, a firefighter named Donald Herbert was left brain damaged. (29) For 10 years, he was unable to speak. Then, one Saturday morning, he did something that shocked his family and doctors: He started speaking. (30) “I want to talk to my wife, ” Donald Herbert said out of the blue. Staff members of the nursing home where he has lived for more than 7 years raced to get Linda Herbert on the telephone. “It was the first of many conversations the 44-year-old patient had with his family and friends during a fourteen-hours’stretch, ” Herbert’s uncle, Simon Malcolm said. “How long have I been away?” Herbert asked. “We told him almost ten years, ” the uncle said, “ He thought it was only three months.” Hebert was fighting a house fire December 29th 1995 when the roof collapsed, burying him underneath. After going without air for several minutes, Herbert was unconscious for two and half months (31) and has undergone therapy ever since. News accounts in the days and years after his injury described Herbert as blind and with little, if any, memory. A video shows him receiving physical therapy but apparently unable to communicate and was little awareness of his surroundings. Malcolm declined to discuss his nephew’s current condition or whether the apparent progress was continuing. “The family was seeking privacy while the doctors evaluated Herbert,”(32) he said. As the word of Herbert’s progress spread, visitors streamed into the nursing home. “He’s resting comfortably, ” his uncle told them.Questions 29 to 32 are based the passage you have just heard.29. What happened to Herbert ten years ago?C)30. What surprised Donald Herbert’s family and doctors one Saturday?A)31. How long did Herbert remain unconscious?B)32. How did Herbert’s family react to the public attention?D)Passage ThreeAlmost all states in America have a state fair. They last for one, two or three weeks. The Indiana State Fair is one of the largest and oldest state fairs in the United States. It is held everysummer. It started in 1852. Its goals were to educate, share ideas, and present Indiana’s best products.(33) The cost of a single ticket to enter the fair was 20 cents. During the early 1930s, officials of the fair ruled that people could attend by paying with something other than money. For example, farmers brought a bag of grain in exchange for a ticket.(34) With the passage of time, the fair has grown and changed a lot, but it is still one of Indiana’s most celebrated events. People from all over Indians and from many other states attend the fair. They can do many things at the fair. They can watch the judging of the prize cows, pigs and other animals. They can see sheep getting their wool cut and they can learn how that wool never see except at a fair. The fair provides a chance for a farming community to show its skills and farm products. For example, visitors might see the world’s largest apple, or the tallest sunflower plant. Today, children and adults at the fair can play new computer games or attempt more traditional games of skill. They can watch performances put on by famous entertainers. Experts say such fairs are important, because people need to remember that they are connected to the earth and its products, and they depend on animals for many things. (35)Questions 33 to 35 are based the passage you have just heard.33. What were the main goals of the Indiana State Fair when it started?A)34. How did some farmers gain entrance to the fair in the early 1930s?B)35. Why are state fairs important events in America?D)Section CDirections: In this section, you will hear a passage three times.

When the passage is read for the second time, you are required to fill in the blanks numbered from 36 to 43 with the exact words you have just heard. For blanks numbered from 44 to 46, you are required to fill in the missing information. For these blanks, you can either use the exact words you have just heard or write down the main points in your own words. Finally, when the passage is read for the third time, you should check what you have written.Students’ pressure sometimes comes from their parents. Most parents are well (36) meaning, but some of them aren’t very helpful with the problems their sons and daughters have in (37) adjusting to college, and a few of them seem to go out of their way to add to their children’s difficulties.For one thing, parents are often not (38) aware of the kinds of problems their children face. They don’t realize that the (39) competition is keener, that the required (40) standards of work are higher, and that their children may not be prepared for the change. (41) Accustomed to seeing A’s and B’s on high school report cards, they may be upset when their children’s first (42) semester college grades are below that level. At their kindest, they may gently(43) inquire why John or Mary isn’t doing better, whether he or she is trying as hard as he or she should, and so on. (44) At their worst, they may threaten to take their children out of college or cut off funds.Sometimes parents regard their children as extensions of themselves and (45) think it only right and natural that they determine what their children do with their lives. In their involvement and identification with their children, they forget that everyone is different and that each person must develop in his or her own way. They forget that their children, (46) who are now youngadults must be the ones responsible for what they do and what they are.。

They lived in Chicago when my grandfather worked making ice cream. Mama thrived in the urban environment. At 16, she graduated first in her high school class, went onto secretarial school, and finally worked as an executive secretary for a railroad company. She was beautiful too. When a local photographer used her pictures in his monthly window display, she felt pleased. Her favorite portrait showed her sitting by Lake Michigan, her hair went blown, her gaze reaching toward the horizon. My parents were married in 1944. Dad was a quiet and intelligent man. He was 17 when he left Italy. Soon after, a hit-and-run accident left him with a permanent limp. Dad worked hard selling candy to Chicago office workers on their break. He had little formal schooling. His English was self-taught. Yet he eventually built a small successful wholesale candy business. Dad was generous and handsome. Mama was devoted to him. After she married, my mother quit her job and gave herself to her family. In 1950, with three small children, dad moved the family to a farm 40 miles from Chicago. He worked land and commuted to the city to run his business. Mama said goodbye to her parents and friends,and traded her busy city neighborhood for a more isolated life. But shenever complained.26 What does the speaker tells us about his mother's early childhood?27 What do we learn about the speaker' s father?28 What does the speaker say about his mother?P2During a 1995 roof collapse, a firefighter named Donald Herbert was left brain damaged. For ten years, he was unable to speak. Then, one Saturday morning, he did something that shocked his family and doctors. He started speaking. " I want to talk to my wife." Donald Herbert said out of the blue. Staff members of the nursing home where he has lived for more than seven years, raced to get Linda Herbert on the telephone. "It was the first of many conversations the 44-year-old patient had with his family and friends during the 14 hour stretch" Herbert' s uncle Simon Menka said. "How long have I been away?" Herbert asked. "We told him almost ten years," the uncle said, "he thought it was only three months." Herbert was fighting a house fire December 29,1995 when the roof collapsed, burying him underneath. After going without air for several minutes, Herbert was unconscious for two and a half months and has undergone therapy ever since. News accounts in the days and years after his injury, described Herbert as blind and with little if any memory. A video shows him receiving physical therapy but apparently unable to communicate and with little awareness of his surroundings. Menka declined to discuss his nephew' s current condition or whether the apparent progress is continuing. "The family was seeking privacy while doctors evaluated Herbert" , he said. As word of Herbert' s progress spread, visitors streamed into the nursing home. "He' s resting comfortably," the uncle told them.29 What happened to Herbert ten years ago?30 What surprised Donald Herbert' s family and doctors one Saturday?31 How long did Herbert remain unconscious?32 How did Herbert' s family react to the public attention?P3Almost all slates in America have a state fair. They last for one, two or three weeks. The Indiana state fair is one of the largest and oldest state fairs in USA. It is held every summer. It started in 1852. Its goals were to educate, share ideas, and present Indiana' sbest products. The cost of a single ticket to enter the fair was 20 cents. During the early 1930* s, officials of the fair ruled that the people could attend by paying with something other than money. For example, farmers brought a bag of grain in exchange for a ticket. With the passage of time, the fair has grown and changed a lot, but it' s still one of Indiana' s most celebrated events. People from all over Indiana and from many other states attend the fair. They can do many things al the fair. They can watching the judging of the price cows, pigs, and other animals; they can see sheep getting their wool cut, and they can learn how that wool is made into clothing; they can watch cows giving birth. In fact, people can learn about the animals they would see except at the fair. The fair provides a chance for the farming communities to show its skills and farming products. For example, visitors might see the world' s largest apple, or the tallest sunflower plant. Today, children and adults at the fair can play new computer games, or attend more traditional games of skill. They can watch performances performed by famous entertainers. Experts say such fairs are important, because people need to remember that they' re connected to the earth and its products, and they depend on animals for many things.33. What were the main goals of the Indiana' s state fair when it started?34. How did some farmers gain the entrance to the fair in the early1930's?35. Why state fairs are important events in the America?第四部分、2007年6月英语四级听力复合式听写原文Students' pressure sometimes comes from their parents. Most parents are well meaning, but some of them aren' i very helpful with the problems their sons and daughters have in adjusting to college. And a few of them seem to go out of their way to add to their children' s difficulties. For one thing, parents are often not aware of the kinds of problems their children face. They don' t realize that the competition is keener, that the required standards of work are higher, and that their children may not be prepared for the change. Accustomed to seeing A' sandB' s on the high school report cards, they may be upset when their children' s first semester college grades are below that level. At their kindest, they may gently inquire why John or Mary isn' t doing better, whether he or she is trying as hard as he or she should, and so on. At their worst, they may threaten to take theirchildren out of college, or cut off funds. Sometimes parents regard their children as extensions of themselves, and think it only right and natural that they determine what their children do with their lives. In their involvement and identification with their children, they forget that everyone is different, and that each person must develop in his or her own way. They forget that their children, who are now young adults, must be the ones responsible for what they do and what they are.参考答案：Section C compound dictation36 meaning37 adjusting38 aware39 competition40 standards41 accustomed42 semester43 inquire44 at their worst, they may threaten to take their children out of college or cut off funds.45 think it only right and natural that they determine what their children do with their lives.46 who are now young adults, must be the ones responsible for what they do and what they are.。

The numbers associated with identity theft are beginning to add up fast these days. A recent General Accounting Office report estimates that as many as 750.000 Americans are victims of identity theft every year. And thai number may be low, as many people choose not to report the crime even if they know they have been victimized. Identity theft is "an absolute epidemic," states Robert Ellis Smith, a respected author and advocate of privacy. "It's certainly picked up in the last four or five years. It's worldwide. It affects everybody, and 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."OnfficTyour fingerprints, which are unique to you and cannot be given to someone else for their use, your personal data, especially your social security number, your bank account or credit card number, your telephone calling card number, and other valuable identifying data, can be used, if they fall into the wrong hands, to personally profit at your expense. In the United States and Canada, for example, many people have reported that unauthorized persons have taken funds out of their bank or financial accounts, or. in the worst cases, taken over their identities altogether, running up vast debts and committing crimes while using ihe victims' names. In many cases, 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 in the community and correcting erroneous information for which the criminal is responsible. According to Ihe FBI, identity theft is the number one fraud committed on the Internet. So how do job seekers protect themselves while continuing to circulate their resumes online? The key to a successful online job search is learning to manage the risks. Here are some tips for staying safe while conducting a job search on the Internet.1. Check for a privacy policy.If you are considering posting your resume online, make sure the job search site you are considering has a privacy policy, like The policy should spell out how your information will be used, stored and whether or not it will be shared. You may want to think twice about posting your resume on a site that automatically shares your information with others. You could be opening yourself up to unwanted calls from solicitors (4MB $ ).When reviewing the site's privacy policy, you'll be able to delete your resume just as easily as you posted it. You 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 objectives and the level of risk you are willing to assume., 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 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."You 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 exacnitle assigned by your employer.4. Establish an 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 your 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@.5. Protect your references.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 lo conduct a background check. This is one of the oldest tricks in the book - don't fall for it.1. Robert Ellis Smith believes identily theft is difficult to detect and one can hardly do anything to prevent it.2.
