题型:江苏同步题难度:来源:

     You admire a person from a distance. Popular and known, you find it frightening just to be near that
person.Suddenly, this person is in front of you, smiling.How will you start a conversation?
     Starting a conversation is a fear experienced by many people.Once in a situation where a person
must start a conversation, he feels like hiding or vanishing into the air. Even though how prepared a
person is, words don"t seem coherent(前后一致的)enough. The chance is likely to be lost forever, so
never hesitate to start one.
     When you start a conversation with strangers, think that they may be feeling worried too. Being the
first to start, you are the one breaking the ice. All they need to do is respond so start the conversation
on a positive note. Observe your surroundings-the people around you, food, weather, the place
itself-and find a common topic. Be friendly. Give praise sincerely.Do not be afraid to ask questions.
Start with closeended questions so it will be easier to ask for an answer. If a positive reaction is
received then take it as a hint that the person is willing to converse with you.
     If at first you get a negative response, do not be blunt(真言的)about it. Act as if you did not notice
it. Some people need time to get accustomed to your presence. They become conditioned to themselves
that you are talking with them and not to the other people around. If the answer is too negative, then let
go of the topic but do not respond rudely. Show that you respect their decision.Give them time to think.
     After receiving a positive answer, a few more closeended questions will be fine.Be sensitive.
Observe how the response is being delivered. Show genuine interest in the answers. Listen attentively
and respond accordingly. If you feel that the response is positive, you can start asking openended
questions. Do not start topics about religion or politics. These two subjects are very controversial and
arguments may arise because of conflicting ideas and perceptions.
     Talk about some personal information like your favorites but do not monopolize(垄断)the time.
Talking only about you might bore the other person. You should show that you are also interested in
getting to know him better by asking relevant questions. A light and wholesome joke can lighten the
mood but it must be delivered correctly as it may offend the other party.
     When in a group, involve in the whole group. Do not isolate a single person but when a person is
speaking, look at him and give soliciting response like a nod or a smile.
     Talk with confidence but do not overdo it. You might end up looking boastful(自夸的). Do not
whisper with the people beside you when someone is talking. If you are knowledgeable with the
subject at hand, then speak up. If you have questions, voice them out. These are the chances you
should not pass to start a conversation.

     Understanding the process of making career choices and managing your career is a basic life skill that
everyone should understand.
     Your career decisions have such a profound effect on all aspects of your life.It"s important to have the
knowledge and resources needed to make smart, informed decisions.
     Many people mistakenly believe that choosing a career is a onetime event that happens some time in
early adulthood.However, career management is actually a lifelong process, and we continue to make
consequential career choices over the years.
     Whether you are looking for a new job, aiming to take the next step at your current job, completely
changing your career or planning your retirement options, you are making career decisions.Using good
resources and the guidance of a career counselor can help you to make those decisions well.
     So many people jump right to creating a new resume when they want to take action in their career.
However, career management and job search is about so much more than writing a good resume.If you
take the time to learn about, think through and act on the four main areas of career management, you"ll be
rewarded throughout your career.
     Your interests, abilities, values and personal needs and realities should all be taken into account in any
career decision making process.You spend countless hours at work, and it impacts your life in so many
ways;it makes sense that you should be fully informed before making such profound decisions.
     Do you know how many different career choices are available to you?Both The Dictionary of
Occupational Titles(American)and The National Occupational Classification(Canadian) list well over
20,000 different job titles.So unless you"ve actively explored a variety of career options, there"s a very
good chance that there are great possibilities available to you, and you don"t even realize they exist.
     Match your understanding of yourself with your understanding of possible career options.Once you
have developed a good understanding of yourself, you will be able to combine that selfknowledge with
your career and labor market research to determine potential careers that are a great fit for you.
     When you"ve made a well informed decision, then you"re ready to make it happen.Making use of good
career guidance and resources will help you to acquire the education, skills and experience needed to get
the job.
     Avoid the"ready, fire, aim"approach to making career choices and job searching.Time spent
understanding your needs, researching your career options and developing outstanding job search skills,
guided by great career resources, is a powerful investment in your future.

     Career education is the instruction that is intended to help young people to identify,choose and prepare for a career.Such instruction may focus on a person"s role in work,leisure,or family life.Career education
differs from vocational education,which is designed to teach specific occupational skills.
     Career education includes the formal and informal learning that occurs in the family,in the community,

These activities are designed to improve the attitudes,knowledge,and skills that are important for work
roles.Career education helps students to develop selfunderstanding and then use it to plan their education
and working life.
      A complete career education program in school begins in kindergarten and continues at least through

most.In high schools,students get more specific information about occupations and life styles.They may

     Many people find it difficult to do any activity for pure pleasure.I"m here to tell you about one of my
favorite pleasures.It doesn"t cost a thing and takes very little time.Best of all, you can do it for pure
enjoyment.It"s walking.
     There"s something about walking that"s different from jogging.When I"m jogging, I"m constantly
challenging myself to go farther or faster, sweat more, and breathe harder.But when I"m walking, I"m
taking time to go outside and put one foot in front of the other while I look around, breathe, and feel the
sun and the wind.When I walk, I"m submerging(浸没) myself in life.
     On walks, I make friends with myself.That little voice in my head asks, "How are you going to finish
three major projects this week?" I answer, "Now, calm down.This is your time.No deadlines, no projects, no havetodos."
      Walks alone and walks with companions each have their own pleasures.On walks with companions
, acquaintances become friends and friendships deepen.There are always memories and thoughts to share on walks.
     I also enjoy walking anywhere with my children, who constantly open my eyes to new
discoveries-rolling down a hill, or finding a strange rock.Walking expands their minds and teaches them
about nature.
      Years ago, when I read "Pride and Prejudice", I noticed Elizabeth Bennet walked three miles to visit
her sister.Then I learned that the Romantic poets-William Wordsworth, John Keats, and Percy Bysshe
Shelley-frequently walked for hours for creative inspiration.I might not have been able to write like these poets but I could take walks as they did, I thought.Then I became interested in the activity.
     Because I walk so often, I now have a list of my favorite walking spots.One of my favorite spots is a
park near my house.The park lets me experience the cycle of the seasons at my convenience.
     Where else can you appreciate the beauty in the world except on a walk? Why not take a walk and
do it for pleasure?

1. Compared with jogging, walking ________.
A. is more boring  
B. is more relaxing
C. needs more energy  
D. takes less time

2. The author seems to believe that ________.
A. walks may help promote friendship
B. walks help build children"s independence
C. one had better walk without companions
D. one can solve hard problems during walks

3. From Paragraph 6 we learn ________.
A. the benefits of reading
B. why the author loves poems
C. how the author started walking
D. the importance of creative inspiration

4. Why does the author write the passage?
A. To stress the importance of literature.
B. To give advice about daily exercise.
C. To show the benefits of doing sports.
D. To recommend walking to the readers.
