When you need a job very much, you may end up taking one for which you are overqualified. Although you were initially grateful just to have the work, you now feel bored and depressed. Is there any way to change that?

Start by changing you opinion, says Caitlin Kelly, the author of Malled, a book based on her experience as a sales clerk after losing her job in journalism. “Don’t focus on what you’re not getting but what you are getting,” she says. “Be patient and work attentively with a wide range of people. It doesn’t matter what the job is – there are always things you can learn and skills you can develop.”

Hilary Pearl, the founder of a coaching firm, says, “Tell yourself the current situation isn’t the end of your career. Don’t overdramatize (过分夸大) the negative aspects but try to view the situation more philosophically: life has a series of stages, and this is one of them. Don’t forget to study even in the worst stage.”

Consider that because you’ re overqualified, you may be able to learn or do things on the job that might not have been possible in a more demanding position, says Sarah Hawthorn, the chief executive of Illustrate Consulting. “You could spend your extra time in learning different aspects of the business and teaching others in the organization.” she says.

Is it possible to make you work more challenging, even if your job responsibilities aren’t likely to change?

Of course, you make seek tasks and responsibilities that force you to learn something new or to work harder. “You may be operating on autopilot (习惯性地) right now, but chances are that people above you are stressed,” Sarah Hathorn says. “Take things off you boss’s plate and let him, know which projects or tasks you want to learn more about.”

Always express you request positively, saying that you love new challenges, rather than complaining that you are bored and underused, says Ethun, the president of the Park Avenue Group. In your down time, educate yourself about the company and its industry. “Read corporate information, analys reports and related news articles,” she says, “If your boss accepts your suggestions, it will make you a more valuable employee.”

67．According to Caitlin Kelly, 　　　　 .

　　　 A．one should be wiling to do something important

　　　 B．fulfilling your regular duties well is important

　　　 C．being a salesman is not as important as being a journalist

　　　 D．doing a simple job well will bring you a sense of success

　　　 A．work is just a stage of our whole life

　　　 B．the present job doesn’t matter to us in a long run

　　　 C．one should be satisfied with his present situation

　　　 D．one should look forward instead of complaining about the present situation

69．The underlined words “Take things off your boss’s plate” mean 　　　.

　　　 A．share your boss’s burden B．draw your boss’s attention

Forget chip fat, sugar cane or rapeseed (油菜籽) oil – the latest source of biofuel could be waterinelons. Scientists have discovered that the fruit is a great source of sugar that can be readily distilled (蒸馏) into alcohol to power cars and farm machinery.

And because sellers reject 360,000 tons of “substandard” fruit annually in America alone they could be used as an economical way to make fuel. The waste from US growers could produce nearly two million gallons (nine million litres) of biofuel per year.

In the study, researchers at the US Deparument of Agriculture set out to determine the biofuel potential of juice from rejected watermelons – those not sold due to cosmetic imperfections, and currently ploughed back into the field.

About a fifth of each annual watermelon crop is left in the field because of surface blemishes (瑕疵) or because they are misshapen.

Dr Wayne Fish, who led the team, found that 50 percent of the fruit was fermentable (可发酵的) into alcohol which could provide valuable fuel.

“We’ve shown that the juice of these melons is a source of readily fermentable sugars, representing and unexploited raw material for alcohol biofuel production.” he said.

The study, published in the journal Biotechnology for Biofuels, discovered that watermelons could produce around 20 gallons of fuel per acre from fruit that otherwise would go to waste.

Production of biofuels has been targeted by western governments as a way to support renewable energy targets.

The European Union has a target for 2013 that 5.75 percent of transport fuels should come from biological sources, but the target is unlikely to be met.

The British government’s Renewable Transport Fuel Obligation requires five percent of the fuel sold at the pump by 2013 to be biofuel.

63．The passage mainly tells us 　　　　.

　　　 A．watermelons could be used to make fuel

　　　 B．western countries aim at producing bifuels

　　　 C．fuel made from watermelons has many advantages

　　　 D．watermelon juice will be the largest source of renewable energy

64．We can learn from the text that 　　　　　.

　　　 A．about two gallons of fuel could be made from rejected fruit per acre

　　　 B．sellers in the world throw away 360,000 tons of watermelons every year

　　　 C．half of the watermelons were fermentable into alcohol to provide energy

　　　 D．five percent of fuel is required to be biofuel from watermelons by 2013 in Britain

65．The underlined word “cosmetic” in Paragraph 4 probably means 　　　　.

　　　 A．inside B．flavor C．freshness D．appearance

66．We can infer from the passage that 　　　　.

　　　 A．it will cost a lot to make biofuel from watermelons

　　　 B．the EU is likely to meet its target of transport fuels from biological sources

　　　 C．western countries are engaged in biofuel study but still have a long way to go

　　　 D．watermelon juice has been used as a resource of sugars to produce alcohol biofuel.

Is the film Inception（《盗梦空间》）a reality? Studies suggest “lucid dreams（清醒梦）”where we coutrol the action are on the rise. In the movie, a dream world can be controlled at will. But for more and more of us, it is becoming a reality, with the number of people experiencing lucid dreams rising quickly. In the film, Leonardo DiCapris AND Ellen Page walk through a dream world where they are able to bend streets into the sky, walk up on the wall and destroy a café by the force of will.

While the plot of a lucid dream may not be dramatic, the process is similar, people having a lucid dream realize they are dreaming and may fro then on “direct” the action. Or they may simply “watch” the dream unfold.

The sense of awareness makes it different from the a dream that is simply extremely vivid and true to life. And while the description may seem fantastic, the process is familiar to many of us.

Studies suggest that the number of people in the Western world experiencing the lucid dream sometimes has risen by between 10% and 40% since the 1980s. today, they are so common that about one in eight of us will have one in our lives. Despite this, little is known about what causes them – or what is behind the rise.

Research carried out at the respected Harvard University in the US showed the brain to be hard at work during lucid dreams. In fact, the level of mental activity in some parts of the brain was similar to that of a person awake.

Lucid dreamers seem to share certain individual character. For instance, they are creative and believe in personal responsibility rather than letting society solve the problem. Scientists of course, do not know the function of dreams in general, far less that of lucid ones.

Our nightmares may reflect or waking concerns. And previous research has found that women have more nightmares than men. Their dreams are also more intense (紧张的) and leave more of an impression when they wake up.

59．According to Paragraph 1, which of the following is TRUE?

       A．The film Inception is based on reality.

       B．One can be controlled at will during lucid dreams.

       C．One can almost do anything by will in the film Inception.

       D．One is completely awake while he is doing lucid dreams.

60．Lucid dream is different from a common dream for its       .

       A．dramatic process                                        B．sense of awareness

       C．unknown cause                                          D．clear impression

61．What’s the probable task in the future for the scientists?

       A．To study what on earth causes lucid dreams.

       B．To study what characteristics lucid dreams reflect.

       C．To prevent more and more people doing lucid dream.

       D．To study how often one can “direct” his action in “lucid dreams.”

62．What does the passage mainly want to tell us?

       A．The function of lucid dreams.

       B．The reason why people often do lucid dreams.

       C．The fact that more and more people do lucid dreams.

       D．The new research related to lucid dreams.

Jonny Jones was a nice and popular boy, who everyone loved．He was so much fun, so good and so kind to everyone that they treated him wonderfully. But as everything he needed was given to him without asking, Jonny became a weed. He was so spoiled by everyone that he couldn’t stand any hardship.

One day Johnny heard a mother saying to her son “Come on, my boy, get up and stop crying. You are behaving like Johnny Jones.” That made Johnny feel very ashamed. But he was sure that he would prefer to be known as a good boy rather than a fool. Worried, he spoke to his father about all this, though he was afraid that maybe he would be laughed at for having such worries. His father, far from laughing at Johnny, told him that a teacher had taught him a secret trick to turn him into the toughest boy off all. “Eat a candy less, study a minute more, and count to five before crying.” Johnny asked, “Just that? ” “Yes, just that,” said his father, “It’s very simple, but I warn you that it won’t be easy.”

Johnny was happy like a bird, ready to follow the advice. He went to see his mother, and she noticed how happy he was when she offered him candies. “One candy less”, thought Johnny, so he only took one. That afternoon he had another chance to put it into practice by studying one minute more. The result was that he missed the first minute of his favorite program! But having achieved this gave him a great feeling of satisfaction. The same happened when he ran up against the corner of the kitchen table. He only managed to count to four before crying, but that was left deeply in his mother’s memory.

Over the following days Johnny kept using the motto in his life as his father told him. And the more he put this into practice ,the easier it got. Before long he realized that he could also do things that would seem impossible before.

When I was young I loved taking part in high school musicals．I loved to 　31 in front of hundreds of people．In one production, I auditioned（试音）like 32 else. My music teacher was to 　33 that I would get a particular part in the music drama. The part I thought I had was a 　34 lead who sang some of the most beautiful love songs.

But one day the show director pulled me aside. I was 　35 to be offered the leading role. To my disappointment, he said, “Bob, I found a boy with an excellent voice. I need to give the 　36 to him.”

From that moment on I began hating music class. I 37 that I didn’t like what we were singing. My music teacher didn’t know why. She 38 me in front of the class and told me I had changed. She didn’t know what I had been told. But when they 39 the finalists I was given a 　40 role. For some time my pride was 　41 with having to do something I didn’t think I should be doing. But I didn’t it. The minor rold I had 　42 to be much more fun than I had expected. My performance even 　43 my brother who was also in the audience.

Life is really like a 　44 and although we do not audition for the role, each of us is 　45 by the director to play a certain part in it. The 46 is that we sometimes don’t like the part we are given. Like me in high school I became 　47 –if I couldn’t be the lead, I wouldn’t show up for rehearsal（彩排）.

Then we wonder why we feel so 　48 . Sometimes we don’t even feel like we are a part of the “Big Show. ” Everyone does indeed have a role. Some are in front of the curtain, some are behind, but all are 49 for the show to go on All 　50 to success no matter how minor the part is.
