While you may be doing everything right, ignoring just one or two steps in the process may keep you from getting a job, especially in this fierce market. Here is a checklist that covers some of the major links in the job-search chain.

THE RESUME --- Make sure it is up-to-date and tailored to the types of jobs you are seeking for. Have someone else look at your resume. If you cannot afford a career coach, give your resume to friends or family members to scrutinize. Have copies of your resume printed so that you are ready to hand them out at interviews.

COVERING LETTERS---Maybe you’ ve set up a few basic styles in advance, but that’s not enough. Each covering letter should be designed to suit the job for which you are applying.

THE WARDROBE(衣櫥)---Check your wardrobe to ensure that you have the appropriate professional dress, including shoes, ready for interview.

NETWORKING---Don’t isolate yourself from others for days. Network through e-mail messages, phone calls, appointments and meetings keep you in touch with the outside world and prevent you from becoming depressed.

APPLICATION---A glance at huge online job sites isn’t usually the best way to find a job. You are more likely to succeed through the people you know via networking.

THE FOLLOW—UP---It is quite common to apply for job and never hear back from the company. Take measures, such as following up with a phone call a week or so after you apply. If you know someone at the company, check whether that person will put in a good word for you.

INTERVIEWS----If you’ ve  got plenty of interviews but no return calls or job offers, take a look at your interviewing skills. This is one area where investing in a career coach may pay off. But if you can’t afford one, try to find a job group or service that conducts free mock(模擬) interviews.

SUPPORT SYSTEMS---Finally, recognize that looking for job is rather difficult. Even at the best of times, a job hunt is often about rejection, and that can be hard to endure. Staying in touch with family, friends, professional networks and fellow job seekers can help you to maintain a positive attitude and a sense of perspective.

 It is implied in the text that__________.

A．people often pay no attention to writing their resume

B．the interview is the most difficult step for interviewees

C．a(chǎn) career coach often offers free mock interviews to interviewees

D．your social network may help you a lot in your job hunt

We have all experienced days when everything goes wrong. A day may begin well enough, but suddenly everything seems to get out of control. Sometimes a single unimportant event may cause a number of things to happen. Let us suppose that you are preparing a meal and keeping an eye on the baby at the same time. The telephone rings and this causes your troubles to begin. While you are on the phone, the baby pulls the tablecloth off the table, destroying your half-prepared meal. You hang up hurriedly and attend to your baby. Meanwhile, the meal gets burnt. As if this is not enough to bring you to tears, your husband arrives home, unexpectedly bringing three guests to dinner.

Things can also go wrong on the road. During rush hour one evening two cars collided and the drivers began to argue. The woman driver behind the two cars happened to be a learner. She got into a panic and stopped her car. This forced the driver following her to stop suddenly. This driver’s wife was sitting beside him holding a large cake, and as she was thrown forward, the cake went right through the window and landed on the road. A truck driver seeing a cake flying through the air slammed on the brakes. The truck was carrying empty beer bottles and hundreds of them slid off the back of the truck onto the road, causing a terrible traffic jam. It took the police an hour to get the traffic on the move again. In the meantime, the truck driver had to sweep up hundreds of broken bottles. Only two dogs were enjoying themselves, for they were happily having what was left of the cake.

2.Who is responsible for the accidents that happened on the road?

4.The writer’s purpose in writing this passage is to ___________.  

A．remind us not to answer the phone when we are busy

B．tell us driving is dangerous every day

C．remind us not to be nervous when we meet an accident

科目：高中英語 來源：2015屆浙江臨海白云高級中學(xué)高一上第二次階段考試英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

With the new school year quickly coming near (or perhaps, for your early-starters, already under way), it’s time to get ready for a successful term(學(xué)期). And while you may be cleaning your wardrobe(壁柜), it’s equally important to freshen up(更新) your study skills, too.

Have you ever noticed that your study habits are different from those of your friends? Or how you seem to learn faster in certain classes? Some people are quick to blame(責(zé)備) the teacher or subject(學(xué)科) for their difficulties, but that isn’t always the cause(原因). One thing that many people seem to ignore(忽視) is their learning type.

Now, you may be wondering what a learning type is and how to find yours. There are three different learning types: Visual, Auditory, and Kinesthetic. You can be a combination of learning types, but most people have one main type.

1. Visual learners learn best by seeing. If you seem to easily get information from pictures, graphs, and videos, you are likely a visual learner.

2. Auditory learners learn best by hearing. If you seem to remember things by hearing them, whether listening to a lecture or repeating information out loud, then you are likely an auditory learner.

3. Kinesthetic learners learn best by doing. If you seem to learn best by working with your hands or testing out what you are shown, you are likely a kinesthetic learner.

So now that you know your personal learning style, the trick (竅門) is to find out how to use your new-found knowledge to help you in your classes.

1.According to the speaker, why are some students slower than others in a certain subject?

A．Because they find the subject too difficult.

B．Because they have lost interest in the subject.

C．Because their teacher is not good enough.

D．Because they don’t know their learning type.

2.Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “combination”?

A．success

B．mixture

C．wonder

D．model

3.Stephen loves science and usually does experiments with his classmates in the lab to test what he has learned. So what type of learner is he?

A．Visual

B．Auditory

C．Kinesthetic

D．Both A and B

4.What do you think the speaker is going to do next?

A．To give further explanation to the three types of learners.

B．To give clear examples of the three types of learners.

C．To make a survey(調(diào)查) about the three types of learners.

D．To suggest different study skills to different types of learners.
