21、One of the most important factors of successful job hunting is the job interview. There are thousands of people entering new careers and searching for job placement. In order to give yourself an edge over others applying for the job you want, it is important to create a solid impression during the job interview.

Because what you say during an interview is so important, there are two rules to remember. One is to present yourself in a favorable way and stress your areas of competence. However, don’t overstate; tell the truth. Second, listen carefully and get involved in what the interviewer is saying. Notice the interviewer’s interests and relate your comments to them.

If you are not certain what the job will require of you, ask questions to see whether you do feel qualified. Do more listening than talking. Don’t be afraid to ask for a second interview if you need time to gather information that will be more useful in the second interview. Most interviewers will appreciate your questions and your ability to listen and respond.

Each of us has sensitive areas, which could refer to your lack of an academic degree, a long period of unemployment, or lack of work experience if you are entering a new field. Answer sensitive questions briefly and positively. If you believe that this area presents a real obstacle to a job offer, you could be communicating this doubt to the interviewer. Many times, however, an interviewer will override these sensitive areas if you have a confident, positive attitude.

The job interview is an important part of the job search because the attitude and impression you project can make the interviewer feel “with you” or “against you”. Remember that you have the power to create a favorable impression. Interviewers have the intelligence to recognize genuine enthusiasm and interest.

【1】According to paragraph 1, what is an advantage when applying for a job?

A．Having some relevant experience.

B．Showing strong interest in the job.

C．Leaving interviewers a sound impression.

D．Making full preparations for the job interview.

【2】What is an unfavorable response when you are not sure about the job requirement?

A．Listen to the interviewers attentively.

B．Ask the interviewers related questions.

C．Ask for another interview when necessary.

D．Stress your areas of competence repeatedly.

【3】What does the underlined word “override” mean in paragraph 4?

A．Outweigh.

B．Ignore.

C．Overcome.

D．Emphasize.

【4】What does the text mainly tell us?

A．Listening matters more than talking.

B．Favorable impression does make a difference.

C．How do you conduct an interview for a job.

D．Showing genuine enthusiasm and interest for the job is important.

22、We all get anxious. While anxiety is a normal human emotion felt by all people at some point or another, anxiety disorders can make certain aspects of life unmanageable, such as social situations or test-taking at school.

It’s important for each person to find a daily routine and treatment approach that works for them. Self-help books that target anxiety management can be a very useful part of the treatment journey. Here are the best of them.

23、An African proverb says that a single hand cannot tie a bundle. Everyone needs companions to help them sail through the rough seas of life. Even the strongest and richest person still needs friends. Our money and strength would have no value if we had no friends to share with us. The best friendship is a give-and-take relationship. We need the support of our family, friends and the community. In turn we also give support to the society, our friends and our family.

The word “friend” has many meanings. It could be the bus driver who takes you to and from work every day. It could be a parent, a colleague, a wife or husband, a brother or sister, or even the unknown person who helped you just once when you could not find your way. Real friends share not only our happiness but our sorrows as well. This may explain why we have the expression “a friend in need is a friend indeed”.

Friendship is like the sunshine that keeps us warm. It is like the refreshing raindrops on the fields that give the farmers hope of a good planting season. Without friends our life would be like a desert where our only friend would be loneliness and sadness. The most fortunate person is the one who has friends from all levels in the society. A driver might find friends not only among his colleagues but among farmers, bankers, traders, students, politicians or teachers. We should never forget our old friends when we make new ones. We should treasure each of our friends whether poor or rich, beautiful or not. Each friend is unique in his or her own way. And all together, they enrich life and make it very colourful.

【1】 What is the main topic of the passage?

A. How to sail through the sea of life.

B. Friends and friendship.

C. A friend in need is a friend indeed.

D. Never forget old friends when making new ones.

【2】 What is the correct understanding of friends according to the writer?

A. he helps you with what you need

B. he is told how to find his way

C. he becomes one of your family

D. he is a driver taking you from and to work

【4】 The underlined word “unique” in the last paragraph most probably means “ ”.

A. special     B. poor   C. rich D. Valuable

24、For us, one of the many cultural shocks we experienced was during our time in Bolivia. We spent five months traveling around South America but Bolivia surprised us most. Tourism and the approach to service in Bolivia are, to some extent, underdeveloped, which is not necessarily bad. However, you might get the feeling that the locals don’t like your presence. At times we didn’t feel welcome at all.

Bolivians will stare at you, give angry looks, and often won’t even say hi when you come to their stores and restaurants. After some conversations with locals, we were told that the negative attitude had nothing to do with us. Bolivians are just not used to foreigners and don’t really know how to handle tourists. But we can’t even blame them. After a long and hard time as a Spanish colony, people are still very suspicious of foreigners.

What we loved most and surprised us is how Bolivians keep their traditions alive, which is truly amazing. We often saw locals wearing their traditional clothes and marketing their self-made medicine. These and other efforts to preserve their customs deserve respect. You just can’t see that in many countries in the world.

I loved their clothes so much that I borrowed a traditional Bolivian dress to try to overcome the "tourist vs local barrier" and show the locals on the island that we truly love their culture and appreciate it. The experience was absolutely wonderful. We walked to the sunset point and locals were smiling and waving at us, cheering and we felt like we had a "connecting moment".

Even though we had this cultural shock and despite the negative feelings at the beginning of our travels in Bolivia, we have to say that we will never forget how special Bolivia was to us.

【1】How might newcomers feel about Bolivians?

A．They are cold.

B．They are gentle.

C．They are clever.

D．They are generous.

【2】What shaped Bolivians’ attitude to foreigners?

A．Foreigners’ rude manners.

B．The location of the country.

C．Local people’s lack of knowledge.

D．The unpleasant history of the country.

【3】What’s the author’s favorite about Bolivians?

A．They seldom blame foreigners.

B．They are good at doing business.

C．They have many self-made items.

D．They preserve their traditions well.

【4】Which of the following best describes the author’s trip to Bolivia?

A．Restless.

B．Eye-opening.

C．Fruitless.

D．Awkward.
