Thousands of jobs come into our Job Centre every week, but they get snapped up (抢购) quickly. So although we shall do all we can to help you, it’s important for you to do all you can to help yourself. This passage tells you how.

Registered for work

Once you have registered for work we will match you with available vacancies. If you want to claim unemployment benefit, you also have to get registered at our Job Centre. But you actually apply for and claim it at the local Unemployment Office.

Getting a job through self-service

Jobs that come in are put on self-service show as soon as possible. Half the people who find jobs through our Job Centre find them through self-service. You can call in at any time to look at the jobs shown.

Come to our Employment Advisers

If you want more help or advice, don’t forget that’s what we’re here for. Our Employment Advisers can help you with things like:

★thinking about the different sorts of jobs you could do and which are best for you.

★jobs available locally or elsewhere.

★whether you are suitable for a TOPS training course.

★funds to help you look for, and move to work in other parts.

Even though you have a clear idea of the sort of job and pay you want, you may find that something different will suit you quite well. Keep this in mind when you are talking with Employment Advisers.

If you don’t find a job on your first visit, go into self-service as often as you can to look at the jobs on show there. Good vacancies are coming in all the time just because you’ve been registered for work.

English as a second language (ESL) websites for children can help build vocabulary, teach correct spelling and pronunciation of words, and assist with basic grammar such as understanding sentence structure, parts of speech, tenses, and singular and plural word forms. English learning websites for children include:

•ESL Kid is an organized website that serves as a comprehensive directory of English as a second language resources for children, teachers, and parents. There are categories for different subjects, such as ABC games, dictionary, spelling, literature and music. Since this is just a directory, parents should help children explore the sites linked to it.

•MES Games has several categories of interactive games. Some games are more suited to younger children and beginning learners, such as the vocabulary building games in which players must first listen to a spoken word and then identify the correct items. More advanced children will enjoy online sport games based on grammar concepts that go with multiple choice questions.

•ESL Kids Lab has many resources for helping children learn English as a second language. These include free video English lessons categorized by grade level, ideas for games, and printable worksheets. However, the inferiority of this website is also obvious—it contains lots of advertisements.

•ESL Kid Stuff has a variety of resources, including a list of select online English learning games and song lyric sheets. Downloading worksheets and flashcards requires a yearly membership fee, however.

Beginning college is exciting: new ideas to explore, new challenges to meet and many decisions to make. Your future begins here.

However，you will find college life is different from your previous school environment. Many of us can be easily overwhelmed（压垮）by the details of running a well-balanced life. While some of us may have the know-how, I guess there are more of us who can benefit from learning about the experiences of others who have walked the college halls before you.

The following you may find of use about life on campus.

* Plan well. There are so many new things to do at a new college or university. Give yourself time to make new friends and become familiar with the campus, but don’t forget why you are there. Give some time for social activities and manage your time wisely.

* If you don’t have a “system” for planning your time now (like a day timer, a computer data book), get one. Most of all, don’t depend on your memory.

* Don’t miss the guidelines. The restrictions, rules and regulations of all kinds can usually be found in your student handbook. Consider them well-balanced food for thought. What dates are important? What pieces of paper need to be handed in? What can/ can’t you do in class? What can/ can’t you do in your student residence（住处）? Who has right for what? What do you need to complete to graduate?

* Write the word “STUDY” on the walls of our bedroom and bathroom, and maybe it will help to write it on a piece of paper and stick it on the telephone, TV and the kitchen table. Consider this—you are paying thousands of dollars for your courses. You pay every time you have to repeat or replace a course.

* Build your identity. This is the time for you to decide what to do and what not to do. Take as much time as you need to explore new ideas. Do not be afraid of the beyond. This is learning to make good choices.

63. What is the main purpose of the passage?

A. To offer advice on college life.   

B. To explain why college life is exciting.

C. To describe the importance of college life.

D. To persuade you to go to college.

64. According to the passage, why is it exciting to begin college life?

A. Because you will have more freedom at college.

B. Because you will no longer be afraid of the beyond.

C. Because you prepare for your future career and life there.

D. Because professors there will provide you with many new ideas.

65. The underlined word “know-how” refers to          .

A. an understanding of how things are going at college

B. practical knowledge about how to behave and what to do at college

C. college halls where rules and regulations are presented

D. an environment completely different from the one you’re used to

66. According to the passage, college students ________ .         

A. needn’t learn from those who went to college before them

B. spend as much time as possible on social activities

C. should know what they have fought for on campus

D. are supposed to repeat or replace at least one course
