People can find jobs in many ways. Sometimes you can find a job easily, by walking into a local store and looking at its notice board(布告栏). Local stores often have areas for people to put small signs telling the services that they need or they can provide. Such services include looking after children or cleaning houses.
Another popular tool for finding a job is the Internet. For example, people around the world can
use the Craigslist Web site to buy things, meet people or find a job. It is said that the site can receive two million new jobs each month.
Another useful way to find a job is through a university. For example, students at the University
of Texas can go to the job center to get help. Many college students like this way better.
At times, some experts(专业人士)can also help people find a job. Susan Miller has her own company called California Job Services in Los Angeles. She says her company helps people find a job by first helping them understand their strengths, goals and interests. Then she provides them with methods to help them find the right job. So with her help, many people have succeeded in finding a good job.

We may know that there are four basic periods for human beings to pass through when you enter and live in another country. This process(变化过程) helps you deal with culture shock(文化冲击).
Culture shock begins with the "honeymoon period". This is the time when you first arrive in a place where everything about the new cu1ture is strange and exciting. You see new things, hear new sounds and language, eat new kinds of food. This period can last for quite a long time because you feel very happy.
Unluckily, the second period can be more difficu1t. After you have got used to your new life, you can become very tired and begin to miss your motherland, your family, your friends, your pets and so on. Al1 the little prob1ems in life seem to be much bigger and more worrying when you face them in a foreign country. This period can be very difficult and lead to moving backwards quickly.
The third period is called the "adjustment(调整) period". This is When you begin to realize that things are not so bad in the new country. Your sense of humor usually becomes stronger and you realize you are becoming stronger by 1earning to take care of yourself in the new place. Things are still difficult, but you are now a survivor(善于求生者).
The fourth period can be cal1ed "at ease at last". Now you feel quite comfortable in your new place. You can deal with most problems that you have. You may still have prob1ems with language,but you know you are strong enough to deal with them. At this time, you may feel a little uncomfortable if you go back to your motherland.
小题1:According to the passage, culture shock usually happens when you| A．get married to a foreigner | B．live in a big city | | C．go to live in a foreign country | D．meet foreigners in your motherland |
小题2:During the first period of the process, you feel| A．sad and lonely | B．happy and excited | | C．angry but strong | D．easy but uncomfortable |
小题3:You will find that you are a survivor in| A．the lst period | B．the 2nd period | | C．the 3rd period | D．the 4th period |
小题4:The fourth period can be regarded as a period of being| A．relaxing | B．worrying | C．tiring | D．adjustable |
小题5:We can conclude(lgth$it) from the passage that| A．Living in another country is fun | | B．it"s boring to live in another country | | C．knowing about culture shock is hard | | D．it"s not easy to dea1 with culture shock |

We all dream about things that we would like to do we hope to achieve in the future. But are everybody’s dreams the same? Here are some of the findings of a survey about hopes and dreams, in which thousands of students across China took part in it.
What are the hopes of teenagers?
We received several different answers to the question: what would you like to do after finishing your education? It seems some students would like to start work as soon as possible, so that they can help provide better lives for their parents. Other students hope to continue studying after finishing school and to go to university. Although money is important, many teenagers said they want to do jobs they enjoy. According to the survey, the most popular choice of job is computer programming.
What are the dreams of teenagers?
Teenagers have all kinds of dreams. Some are more realistic than others. For example, many students said they would like to be volunteers if Beijing could hold the World Cup, maybe working as translators or tour guides. And quite a few said they dream of going to the moon one day.
According to the survey, less realistic dreams are also common, but many students reported that they were willing to work hard to achieve their dreams. Quite a few dream of becoming famous, perhaps famous sports people or singers. Some said they’d like to go on exciting trips; one students said she’d love to sail across the Pacific Ocean. And then there are dreams that are impossible; three students said they’d like to be able to fly!
Conclusion It was clear from the survey that teenagers have similar hopes. It seems that most students hope to have a good education and find a good job. On the other hand, students dream of very different things: good things, and even crazy things. It is very important to dream, so hold on your dreams; one day they may just come true.

Last Monday we did a survey about how often the students do the housework in Shiyan High School. Here are the results.
Most students do the housework twice or three times a week. They often clean their rooms. Some students do the housework five times a week. They often clean the floor. Some students help their parents on the farm. They think their parents are too busy, so they help them.
The results for “wash clothes” are interesting. Some students wash clothes once or twice a week. They often wash clothes on Saturdays or Sundays. Some students wash clothes three or four times a week. They only wash their own clothes. But most students wash their clothes once a week. And they wash clothes on Sundays.
Liu Ying, a girl in Class 4, Grade 8, has lots of housework to do. She washes the dishes and cleans the floor every day. She often cooks, sometimes three times a day. She says, “My mother isn’t healthy. My father works in another city. So I have to do most of the housework at home.”

Be careful! Some people may use the truth to deceive. When someone tells you something that is true, but misses important information that should be included, he can create a false impression(印象).
For example, someone might say, "I just won 100 dollars on the lottery(彩票). It was great. I took that ticket back to the store and they gave me 100 dollars!"
This man is a winner, right? Maybe, maybe not. We then discover that he paid 200 dollars for 200 tickets, and only one ticket won. He"s really a big loser.
He didn"t say anything that was false, but he didn"t give the other important information. That"s called a half-truth. Half-truths are not lies, but in fact they are dishonest.
Advertisements sometimes use half-truths. It"s against the law to lie in advertisements, so they try to deceive with the truth. An advertisement might say, "Nine-tenths of doctors believe that Fancy Pills will be good to cancer. " It doesn"t tell you that they only asked ten doctors and nine of them work for the Fancy Company.
This kind of thing happens too often. It"s a sad fact of life: Lies are lies, and sometimes the truth can lie as well.

小题5:Which is the best title for the passage?| A．Tell the Truth | B．Everybody Lies | | C．Lie With the Truth | D．Lies Are Lies |
