| I was very disappointed not to be able to go to the jazz concert last Friday. The announcement in the paper said that you could buy tickets at the theater box office in Richland Hills any day between 10:00 and 4:00. Since I work from 9 o'clock to 5:30, the only time I could go to the theater was during my 45-minute lunch break. Unfortunately, the theater is on the other side of the town, and the bus service between my office and Richland Hills is not very good. But if you are lucky, you can make the round trip in 45 minutes. Last Monday, I stood at the bus stop for fifteen minutes waiting for a bus. By the time I saw one come around the corner, there was not enough time left to make the trip-so I gave up and went back to the office. The same thing happened on Tuesda y, and again on Wednesday. On Thursday, my luck changed, I got on a bus right away and arrived at the theatre in exactly twenty minutes. When I got there, however, I found a long line of people at the box office. I heard one man say he had been waiting in line for over an hour. Realizing I would not have enough time to wait in line, I caught the next bus and headed back across the town. By Friday I realized my only hope was to make the trip by taxi. It was expensive, but I felt it would be worth hearing the concert. The trip by taxi only took 10 minutes, but it felt like an hour to me. When I got to the theatre, I was relieved to see that nobody was waiting in line. The reason, I quickly discovered, was that they had already sold all the tickets. |

| Smart job-seekers need to rid themselves of several standard myths about interviewing before they start looking for a job. What follows is a list of some of these untruths and some tips to help you do your best at your next interview. Myth 1: The aim of interviewing is to obtain (means "get") a job offer. Only half true. The real aim of an interview is to obtain the job you want. That often means rejecting job offers you don't want! So before you please an employer, be sure you want the job. Myth 2: Always please the interviewer Not true. Try to please yourself. Of course, don't be hostile-nobody wants to hire someone disagreeable. But there is plainly a muddle ground between being too ingratiating (逢迎) and being hostile. Myth 3: Try to control the interview Nobody "controls" an interview. When someone tries to control us, we resent (憎恨) it. When we try to control others, they resent us. Remember you can't control what an employer thinks of you, just as he can't control what you think of him. So he is ready to give and take when being interviewed; never control the interview. Myth 4: Never interrupt the interviewer Study the style of the effective conversationalists: they interrupt and are interrupted! An exciting conversation always makes us feel free-free to interrupt, to disagree, to agree enthusiastically. Just hang loose. Try being yourself for a change. Employers will either like or dislike you, but at least you'll have made an impression. Leaving an employer indifferent (冷漠的) is the worst impression you can make. |
| 1. To be your natural self in a job interview will _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. make your interviewer angry B. please your interviewer C. leave an impression on the interviewer D. leave the interviewer indifferent to you |
| 2. For job seekers, efforts to control the interview are likely to _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. affect the interviewer's opinion of them B. lead to the offer of a job C. enable them to express themselves fully D. help to create a favorable image of themselves |
| 3. The most important thing to keep in mind when being interviewed for a job is to _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. try to obtain the job B. reject the job first C. qualify yourself for the job D. see if it is a job you want |
| 4. The right attitude to a job interviewer is to be _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. obedient B. hostile C. pleasing D. agreeable |
| 5. "hang loose" in last paragraph means to _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. stay calm and relaxed B. become weak and passive C. take charge D. sit back comfortably |

| In the age of reality television, success isn't the only way to the public eye. Failure can also create fame, just like William Hung, 21, a native of Hong Kong. Hung recently has made an agreement with US-based entertainment firms Koch Records and Fuse Music Network. They will publish a full-length record, titled "The True Idol" on April 6. The idol is a civil engineering student at the University of California at Berkeley. He did a version (改写本) of Ricky Martin's "She Bangs" on the television show "American Idol 3", on January 27. The Fox TV singing contest searches for pop stars among ordinary people. In the case of Hung, however, his act was so bad that the judges cut him off in mid-act. Hung's response? "I already gave my best, so I have no regrets at all." That's good, because any common person would have found plenty to regret: the off-key singing; the blue Hawaiian shirt worn with pants pulled up too high; the terrible dancing; the hips jerking (摇摆) to a beat that did not belong to the song, maybe not even to this planet. It was, by all accounts, bad. But, it was this very bad act that sold well. Marc Juris, president of Fuse, explained it this way:"Every one of us is happily guilty of singing our favorite song at the top of our lungs with complete freedom, completely off-key and completely unworried. That's what William did and immediately won the hearts of America." Whatever it is, for the moment it's big. Three websites devoted to Hung have gone up on the Internet in the past few weeks. Versions of his performance have been remixed with hip hop and techno music and have made it to the top 10 request list at a Chicago radio station. So, what does Hung think of this? "There were all these people saying things about me. A lot were saying I was very courageous and that I was great on the show, but some didn't have much respect for me and some were kind of mean." Now, he says he's not so sure whether to distance himself from the glamour (魅力) or to accept it. Returning to normal hasn't been easy. |
| 1. What is the main idea of this passage? |
|
[ ] |
| A. Sometimes an idol behaves quite foolishly. B. Hung's performance attracted the public eye. C. How an unsuccessful person became famous. D. Success sometimes does not require hard work. |
| 2. Hung was popular in America for all the following reasons EXCEPT _____. |
|
[ ] |

|
[ ] |
| A. William Hung. B. Hung's bad act. C. Hung's website. D. The public's opinion. |
| 4. Which of the following shows the correct order of what happened to Hung? a. The entertainment firms made an agreement with Hung. b. The judges cut Hung off in mid-act in the singing contest. c. Hung became popular among Americans. d. Hung gave a terrible performance though he tried his best. e. Three websites put Hung's funny performance on the Internet. |
|
[ ] |
| A. d, b, e, c, a B. a, c, d, b, e C. a, d, b, c, e D. d, b, a, e, c |
| 5. Why was Hung able to win the hearts of America? |
|
[ ] |
| A. His success was based on his own hard work. B. He attracted people's attention in the contest. C. He was good-looking though he didn't sing well. D. His character was completely different from other idols. |

| In a book called Magnificent Obsession, by Lloyd C. Douglas, a description is given of people helping others but doing it secretly. When difficult problems worried an individual, friends nearby would meet to discuss possible solutions without the individual knowing their actions. When a solution was agreed upon, one or two of the friends would carry out the plan and solve the problem secretly, to the great delight of the worried individual. The helpers would stand by privately, content with their success. No reward was given to the problem solvers, not even a sincere "thank you", because they were never known. This concept is popular today but in a different way. The phrase "pay it forward" is now used when one person helps another. However, the person helped may not be able to repay the person or group that helped them. So rather than return the favor to their helpers, they are supposed to help someone else in the future, which means they pay it forward. It is a sense of responsibility which makes us want to give back in equal measure to the one who has helped us. But, in this case, the responsibility turns to helping someone in the future. Suppose your elderly grandmother pays part of your schooling. She may tell you there is no need to repay her because it is a gift from someone who loves you very much. Nothing would please her more than to have you use her money to get a good education. You may never be able to repay her for such a gift. However, she not only gave you some money, but she provided you with an example that you should also help other people who need it. People with serious needs are everywhere. Many are children who need better clothes, more books and even better schools. Some are elderly people who can't afford their medicine or a doctor's care. Consider how you can "pay it forward" rather than pay money back to your grandmother. |
| 1. The helpers in the book "Magnificent Obsession" were not rewarded because _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. they hadn't solved the problems thoroughly B. they had solved the problems secretly C. they were friends of the worried individual D. they expected to be paid back in the future |
| 2. The underlined word "pay it forward" means _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. to repay someone who has helped you B. to pay someone else who needs help C. to help someone who has helped you D. to help someone else who needs help |
| 3. What does the writer suggest with the example of "your elderly grandmother"? |
|
[ ] |
| A. We should learn to respect our grandparents. B. We should work hard to get a good education. C. We should also lend a hand to other people in need of help. D. We should never forget to repay people for their help. |
| 4. From the passage we know _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. everybody needs help B. more children need help than elderly people C. it costs a lot of money to "pay it forward" D. nowadays many people help others without being repaid |
| 5. By writing the passage, the author wishes people in the world to be _____. |
|
[ ] |
| A. unselfish B. mysterious C. honest D. unforgettable |
