When you’re in high school, it can be difficult to find a job. You may not have much, or any, formal work experience and there aren’t many jobs available for teenagers. However, if you’re looking for a job, there are things you can do to help get your application noticed and help yourself get hired. 1.

Don’t be shy.

Tell everyone you know you are looking for a job. Many jobs aren’t advertised and you may be able to get a good job lead from a friend or family member.

2.

One good way to get experience is to start by working for friends and neighbors. Babysitting, garden work, doing cleaning, and pet sitting all can be included on your resume(簡(jiǎn)歷).

Keep an open mind.

3. This is a tough market and you may not be able to find a job doing what you want to do. The more flexibility you have, the more opportunities you’ll be able to apply for. Plus, even if the job wasn’t your first choice, it may turn out to be better than you expected.

Check the rules.

There are only certain jobs you can do and hours you can work. 4. The minimum age you can work at paid non-agricultural employment is 14.

Write a resume.

A resume may not be required by employers. 5. Even though you may not have much information to include, a resume shows that you’re serious about your job search.

A. Start close to home.

B. Be always optimistic.

C. You can count on the following chance.

D. Don’t limit yourself to certain types of jobs.

Owning a smartphone may not be as smart as you think. It may let you surf the Internet, listen to music and snap photos wherever you are…but it also turns you into a workaholic, it seems.

A study suggests that, by giving you access to emails at all times, the all-singing, all-dancing mobile phone adds as much as two hours to your working day. Researchers found that Britons work an additional 460 hours a year on average as they are able to respond to emails on their mobiles.

The study by technology retailer Pixmania reveals the average UK working day is between 9 and 10 hours, but a further two hours is spent responding to or sending work emails, or making work calls. More than 90 percent of office workers have email-enabled phones, with a third accessing them more than 20 times a day. Almost one in ten admits spending up to three hours outside their normal working day checking work emails. Some workers confess (承認(rèn)) they are on call almost 24 hours a day, with nine out of ten saying they make work emails and calls outside their normal working hours. The average time for first checking emails is between 6 a.m. and 7 a.m., with more than a third checking their first emails in this period, and a quarter checking them between 11 p.m. and midnight.

Ghadi Hobeika, marketing director of Pixmania, said, “The ability to access literally millions of apps, keep in contact via social networks and take photos and video as well as text and call has made smartphones invaluable for many people. However, there are drawbacks. Many companies expect their employees to be on call 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and smartphones mean that people literally cannot get away from work. The more constant in contact we become, the more is expected of us in a work capacity (容量).”

1.What can we conclude from the text?

A.All that glitters is not gold.

B.It never rains but pours.

C.Every coin has two sides.

D.It’s no good crying over spilt milk.

2.The underlined word “accessing” in the third paragraph can be replaced by “________”.

A.calling B.reaching C.getting D.using

3.Which of the following is true according to the text?

A.The average UK working time is between nine and twelve hours.

B.Nine-tenths spent over three hours checking work emails.

C.One-fourth check their first mail between 11 p.m. and midnight.

D.The average time for first checking emails is between 6 a.m. and 8 a.m. .

4.What’s the main idea of the text?

A.Workaholics like smartphones.

B.Smartphones bring about extra work.

C.Smartphones make our life easier.

D.Employers don’t like smartphones.

Speaking two languages can actually help offset(抵消) some effects of aging on the brain, a new study has found.

Researchers tested how long it took participants to switch from one cognitive(認(rèn)知的) task to another, something that’s known to take longer for older adults, said lead researcher, Brian Gold, a neuroscientist at the University of Kentucky.

Gold’s team compared task-switching speeds for younger and older adults, knowing they would find slower speeds in the older population because of previous studies. However, they found that older adults who spoke two languages were able to switch mental activities faster than those didn’t. The study only looked at life-long bilinguals, defined in study as people who had spoken a second language daily since they were at least 10 years old.

Gold and his team asked 30 people, either bilingual or monolingual, to have a series of tests. They found that bilingual people were not only able to switch tasks faster, they had different brain activity than their monolingual peers.

Kristina called bilingualism "a beautiful natural experiment”, because people grow up speaking two languages, and studies have shown that they get certain cognitive benefits from switching between languages and determining which to respond with based on what's going on around them.

Gold said he grew up in Montreal, where he spoke French at school and English at home, prompting relatives to question whether his French language immersion(專心)would somehow hinder his ability to learn English.

"Until very recently, learning a second language in childhood was thought of as dangerous," he said. "Actually, it's beneficial.”

1.What’s the main idea of the passage?

A. Researchers found that bilingual people can slow down the speed or aging on the brain and respond fast.

B. Researchers found that bilingual people respond slowly.

C. Researchers found that speaking two languages is important.

D. Researchers found that bilingual people are great.

2.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. Older bilinguals can’t respond faster in mind.

B. Young bilinguals can respond faster in mind than those monolinguals.

C. Older adults speaking a second language daily since they were at least 10 years old can respond faster than those who don't.

D. Bilingual children respond slower in mind than those monolinguals.

3.In Gold’s opinion, learning a second language in childhood is______.

A.dangerous to children

B. not beneficial to children

C. dangerous but beneficial to children

D. not dangerous but beneficial to children
