          What should you think about when trying to find your career? You are probably better at some
    school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is
    good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career. A girl who spells well and likes English may
    be good at office work. So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other
    hand, you may not have any specially strong subjects but your records show a general satisfactory
    standard.Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. A
    knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will
    have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.
          Your school may have taught you skills, such as typing or technical drawing, which you can use in
    your work.You may be good at metalwork or cookery and look for a job where you can improve
    these skills. If you have had a parttime job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from
    it. If nothing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get
    on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as
    important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a
    parttime job.
          Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be_all_thumbs when you handle
    tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is better to face any
    weakness than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet
    it is an important part of your background.You should not be apologetic(认错的) about it but instead
    recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work.

    1. What is the passage mainly about?
    A. The importance of working hard at school.
    B. Choosing a career according to one's strengths.
    C. How to face one's weakness.
    D. The value of school work.

    2. The writer thinks that a student's parttime job is probably________.
    A. a good way to find out his weak points
    B. one of the best ways of earning extra money
    C. of great use for his work in the future
    D. a waste of time he could have spent on study

    3. From the passage we learn that if a student's school performance is not good, he ________.
    A. should pay more attention to learning skills and developing abilities
    B. will be regretful about his bad results
    C. may also do well in his future work
    D. should restart his study in school

    4. The underlined phrase "be all thumbs" (in Para.3) probably means "________".
    A. be clumsy at doing things
    B. be skillful in doing things
    C. be not interested in certain things
    D. be easily bored in doing things

    5. From the last paragraph we know one should ________.
    A. make full use of one's own weak points
    B. study harder for a new school record
    C. apologize for one's own school record
    D. face one's own weak points bravely

         任务型读写。请认真阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后图表中的空格里填
    入最恰当的单词。)注意:每空不超过1个单词。
         Maybe you are an average student. You probably think you will never be a top student.
    This is not necessary so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to.
    Here's how:
         1. Plan your time carefully. When you plan your week, you should make a list of things
    that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First your
    time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. then decide a good, regular time for studying. Don't forget
    to set aside enough time for entertainment. A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems,
    but it will force you to realize wha is happening to your time.
         2. Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this
    space, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials.
    No games, radios, or television! When you sit down to study, concentrate on the subject.
         3. Make good use of your time in class. Take advantage of class time to listen to everything
    the teachers say. Really listening in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember
    what the teacher says.
         4. Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes. Review the important
    points that your teacher mentioned in class. If you know what your teacher is going to discuss the
    next day, reading that material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer.
         5. Develop a good attitude about tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have
    learned about a subject. They help you remember your new knowledge. The world won't end if
    you don't pass a test, so don't be overly worried.
         There are other methods that might help you with your studying. You will probably discover
    many others after you have tried these.
