21、Tight-lipped elders used to say , “ It’s not what you want in this world , but what you get . ”
Psychology teaches that you do get what you want if you know what you want and want the right things.You can make a mental blueprint of a desire as you would make a blueprint of a house, and each of us is continually making these blueprints in the general routine of everyday living.If we intend to have friends to dinner, we plan the menu, make a shopping list, decide which food to cook first, and such planning is essential for any type of meal to be served.
Likewise, if you want to find a job, take a sheet of paper, and write a brief account of yourself.In making a blueprint for a job, begin with yourself, for when you know exactly what you have to offer, you can intelligently plan where to sell your services.
This account of yourself is actually a sketch of your working life and should include education, experience and references.Such an account is valuable.It can be referred to in filling out standard application blanks and is extremely helpful in personal interviews.While talking to you, your could-be employer is deciding whether your education, your experience, and other qualifications will pay him to employ you and your “ wares ” and abilities must be displayed in an orderly and reasonably connected manner.
When you have carefully prepared a blueprint of your abilities and desires, you have something tangible to sell.Then you are ready to hunt for a job.Get all the possible information about your could-be job.Make inquiries as to the details concerning the job and the firm.Keep your eyes and ears open, and use your own judgment.Spend a certain amount of time each day seeking the employment you wish for, and keep in mind: Securing a job is your job now.

23、When starting college, most students enjoy a week’s stay on campus before classes actually begin. What should you do with that time? Below are several tips to ease (使熟悉) yourself into college life.
Participating in Campus Welcome Activities
Most universities host welcome events before the academic year officially begins, including freshmen orientations (迎新会), campus picnics, and entertainments like concerts.
Participating in such events is a great way to learn about school facilities and understand campus culture: What do students do for fun? What are their favorite classes? What is the history of your university? It can help you observe campus life outside the classroom.
Exploring Campus
Getting to know where essential campus resources are — such as the student advising center, psychological services, and the tutoring center — will make your first few weeks on campus a lot easier, because you won’t have to look for them while still getting used to your classes.
Take some time to check out the buildings where your classes will be held. This will prevent you from getting lost in the first few days of classes, and familiarize you with how long it takes to get from place to place. If you’re worried about taking classes one after another in different buildings, a quick test run won’t hurt. That way, you will avoid potential time delays in getting to your classes.
Starting a Routine
Before getting too excited about all of the fun things you will be able to do during the week, remember that you do have a pretty big schedule change coming up. Starting classes means being in different places at different times, so it’s a great idea to start getting used to that routine right this week.
What helps you most is to schedule your sleep. Following the planned time will ensure you have enough sleep to get to those early classes and stay wide awake.
If you have other daily routines, such as exercising or talking on the phone with family, work those into your day-to-day life before classes start so that you get a better idea of how they fit in with your schedule.
【1】By participating in campus welcome activities, freshmen can _________.
A.learn about campus culture
B.get their course schedule
C.have a physical examination
D.take an entrance test
【2】Why are freshmen advised to have a quick test run between the buildings?
A.To see how many facilities they can use.
B.To avoid being late for future classes.
C.To help those getting lost on campus.
D.To practice running on their way to class.
【3】What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage?
A.To offer some tips on making an easier start at college.
B.To remind freshmen about the first day of school.
C.To help freshmen organize campus activities.
D.To share his college experience with the reader.
24、Geoffrey is a 10-pund pink delivery robot developed by Canadian company Tiny Mile. It is controlled from a distance by a human using a computer and a joystick(操纵杆), navigating with GPS and watching through cameras.
With Geoffrey, we don’t need to keep delivery humans standing around waiting for the order to be ready, and all those restaurant humans watching their food get cold when the driver hasn’t shown up- two big problems in the industry.
Account manager Omar Elawi says “Right now, the delivery robots are mostly controlled by young people with a history of gaming, who are comfortable navigating(定位)the streets on a street with a joystick. But we are trying to push the idea of jobs for disabled people who could work from home.
Tiny Mile sees their market as being very local food service. Even though Geoffrey can run for eight hours, it is meant to travel a little over a mile at walking speed, so that delivered food will be fresh and hot.
Some people wonder whether the delivery robots can survive if someone tries to turn them over or steal their lunch, but Elawi says this has not been a big problem. “There have been no real problems, an amazing reaction actually. A couple of kids were throwing snowballs. Many people would actually help it when it got struck in the snow.” Soon it will even have a speaker so that the driver can say thank you for the help.
Another different thing about Tiny Mile’s delivery robots is that the drivers are paid. Edward Trill says, “Unlike usual delivery robots, Geoffrey isn’t here to take away jobs, but eventually create more-with higher pay.” It will also be more environmentally friendly as it products more. A few years from now it is going to sound silly that we use a car to carry a food box.” He adds.
【1】What do we know about Geoffrey?
A.It works all by itself.
B.It weights as much as an adult.
C.It can produce delicious food.
D.It can improve delivery service.
【2】What can we learn from Omar Elawi’s words in paragraph 3?
A.They want to provide delivery service for disabled people.
B.Young people are their first choice to work with the robots.
C.They plan to involve disabled people in operating the robots.
D.Young people are more interested in robots than other groups.
【3】What’s Elawi’s attitude towards the use of robots.
A.Amazed.
B.Confident.
C.Concerned.
D.Doubtful.
【4】How is Geoffrey different from other delivery robots?
A.It won’t reduce job opportunities
B.It can say thank you to people.
C.It can travel faster than cars.
D.It won’t consume energy.
