題目列表(包括答案和解析)

　　You are going to read a text about the tips on resume writing, followed by a list of examples．Choose the best example from the list A-F for each numbered subheading(1－5)．There is one extra example which you do not need to use．

　　What follows are tips on writing a functional resume that will get read－a resume that makes you come alive and look interesting to employers．

1．Put yourself first：

In order to write a resume others will read with enthusiasm, you have to feel important about yourself．

2．Sell what you can do, not who you are：

Practise translating your personality traits, character, accomplishments and achievements into skill areas．There are at least five thousand skill areas in the world of work ．

Many people are at a loss when asked to think about their abilities, some think they have none at all! But everyone does, and one of yours may just be the ticket an employer would be glad to punch－if only you show it．

3．Be specific, be concrete, and be brief!

Remember that“brevity is the best policy．”

4．Turn bad news into good：

Everybody has had disappointments in work．If you have to mention yours, look for the positive side．

5．Never apologize：

If you’re returning to the work force after fifteen years as a parent, simply write a short paragraph(summary of background)in place of a chronology of experience．Don’t apologize for working at being a mother; it’s the hardest job of all．If you have no special training or higher education, just don’t mention education．

The secret is to think about the self before you start writing about yourself．Take four or five hours off, not necessarily consecutive, and simply write down every accomplishment in your life, on or off the job, that made you feel effective．When you’re satisfied, send it to a printer．It shows an employer that you regard job hunting as serious work,worth doing right．

Isn’t that the kind of person you’d want working for you？

A

A woman who lost her job as a teacher’s aide due to a cutback(縮減)in government funding wrote：“principal of elementary school said I would be the first teacher they would rehire if, government funds became available．”

B

One resume I received included the following：“Invited by my superior to straighten out our organization’s accounts receivable(應(yīng)收款的)．Set up orderly repayment schedule, reconciled(調(diào)和，和解)accounts weekly, and improved cash flow 100 per cent．Rewarded with raise and promotion．”Notice how this woman focuses on results, specifies how she accomplished them, and mentions her reward－all in 34 words．

C

For example,if you have a flair for saving, managing and investing money, you have money management skills．

D

An acquaintance complained of being biased when losing an opportunity due to the statement“Ready to learn though not so well educated”．

E

One of my former colleagues, for example, wrote three resumes in three different styles in order to find out which was more preferred．The result is, of course, the one that highlights skills and education background．

F

A woman once told me about a cash flow crisis her employer had faced．She’d agreed to work without pay for three months until business improved．Her reward was her back pay plus a 20 percent bonus．I asked why that marvelous story wasn’t in her resume．She answered,“It wasn’t important．”What she was really saying of course was“I’m not important．”

Section C

Direction：Read the following text and choose the most suitable summary from A—F for each paragraph. There is one extra summary which you do not need.

A. Promotion by the press and media.

B. Foreign influences into British cuisine.

C. The variety of British cuisine.

D. The effect of history and climate.

E. Traditional meals for different times of the day.

F. International awards to British cuisine.

1 ______

They say a country’s cuisine（烹飪） is a reflection of its culture and national character. Therefore, the UK has always been a diverse country, since every region has its own traditional foods. For example, traditional Scottish cuisine is famous for its robust character： haggis, Aberdeen Angus beef, shortbread and whisky. Wales is well known for its lamb and leeks. Ireland is synonymous with Guinness, Irish whiskey and Irish stew.

2 ______

There are of course dishes common to the whole UK as well. Everyone （except vegetarians） likes a full English breakfast in the morning, followed by a Sunday roast for lunch, perhaps followed by fish and chips or a pork pie for dinner. For dessert, there are dozens of famous British cheeses to choose from.

3 ______

British cuisine has had a better international reputation for the last decade or so. Why is that？One reason is definitely that the wide range of ethnic groups in the UK has given British cuisine new ingredients, flavours, combinations and techniques. Curry, which is originally an Asian dish, is now officially the most popular food in the UK, whereas sandwiches used to be the most popular. With significant numbers of Polish people coming to the UK recently, Polish food shops can be found in almost every British city. Most cities have a Chinese quarter as well.

4 ______

Another reason for the improvement, however, is the large number of cookery programmes on British television. British people are more educated about food than they ever before. British chefs like Gordon Ramsay and Marco Pierre White are internationally famous and even have television shows in the USA.

5 ______

So what are the results？In 2009, British restaurants received more Michelin stars than in any other previous year. The Michelin Guide （first established in France） sets the international standard for restaurant cuisine. With so much good food to eat, perhaps it is not surprising the UK now has an obesity problem.

   I really love my job because I enjoy working with small children and like the challenges and awards from the job. I also think my work is important. There was a time when I thought I would never have that sort of career（職業(yè)）.

   I wasn’t an excellent student because I didn’t do much schoolwork. In my final term I started thinking what I might do and found I didn’t have much to offer. I just accepted that I wasn’t the type to have a career.

   I then found myself a job, looking after two little girls. It wasn’t too bad at first. But the problems began when I agreed to live in, so that I would be there if my boss had to go out for business in the evening. We agreed that if I had to work extra hours one week, she’d give me time off the next. But unfortunately, it didn’t often work out. I was getting very tired and fed up, because I had too many late nights and early mornings with the children.

   One Sunday, I was in the park with the children, and met Megan who used to go to school with me. I told her about my situation. She suggested that I should do a course and get a qualification（資格證書）if I wanted to work with children. I didn’t think I would be accepted because I didn’t take many exams in school. She persuaded me to phone the local college and they were really helpful. My experience counted for a lot and I got on a part-time course. I had to leave my job with the family, and got work helping out at a kindergarten.

   Now I’ve got a full-time job there. I shall always be thankful to Megan. I wish I had known earlier that you could have a career, even if you aren’t top of the class at school.

1.When staying with the two girls’ family，the author ________.

  A. was paid for extra work            B. often worked long hours

  C. got much help from her boss        D. took a day off every other week

2.Why did the author leave her first job？

A. She found a full-time job.                

B. She was fed up with children.

C. She decided to attend a part-time course. 

D. She needed a rest after working extra hours.

3.What has the author learned from her own experiences？
