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(41-45)．There is one extra example which you do not need to use．Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1．(10 points)
The main purpose of a resume is to convince an employer to grant you an interview．There are two kinds．One is the familiar“tombstone”that lists where you went to school and where you’ve worked in chronological order．The other is what I call the“functional”resume-descriptive, fun to read, unique to you and much more likely to land you an interview．
It’s handy to have a“tombstone”for certain occasions．But prospective employers throw away most of those unrequested“tombstone”lists, preferring to interview the quick rather than the dead．
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：
Practice translating your personality traits, character, accomplishments and achievements into skill areas．There are at least five thousand skill areas in the world of work．
Toot your own horn!
Many people clutch 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’ve returned 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．Don’t worry at first about what it all means．Study the list and try to spot patterns．As you study your list, you will come closer to the meaning：identifying your marketable skills．Once you discover patterns, give names to your cluster of accomplishments(leadership skills, budget management skills, child development skills etc．)Try to list at least three accomplishments under the same skills heading．Now start writing your resume as if you mattered．It may take four drafts or more, and several weeks, before you’re ready to show it to a stranger(friends are usually too kind)for a reaction．When you’ve satisfied, send it to a printer; a printed resume is far superior to photocopies．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?
AA woman who lost her job as a teacher’s aide due to a cutback in government funding wrote：“Principal of elementary school cited me as the only teacher’s aide she would rehire if government funds became available．”
BOne resume I received included the following：“invited by my superior to straighten out our organization’s accounts receivable．Set up orderly repayment schedule, reconciled 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 resumes in three different styles in order to find out which was more preferred．The result is, of course, the one that highlight 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．”

[1]Keeping a busy social life among lots of friends may keep people slimmer than spending hours on a treadmill, according to scientists. They say that socializing and meeting with friends helps boost levels of ‘brown fat’ in the boby which burns calories to generate heat.
[2]Living in a stimulating, social environment was found to reduce abdominal fat in mice by half over four weeks, even if they ate more. US researchers say that social stimulation can
by converting white fat into brown, White stores calories and makes us fatter, while brown burns energy to generate heat .Converting white fat into brown is difficult, as we all know, normally requiring long term exposure to cold conditions or activating part of the body’s nervous system
[3]However, scientists from Ohio State University now think that having a busy social life is an even more effective way of changing white fat into brown, The team came up with their theory by studying the effects of various living environments on mice. Those who lived alongside a greater number of mice and had more space and toys to stimulate them lost far more weight over the course of the study than their ‘couch potato’ ones.
[4]Study author Dr. Mattew During, whose team’s findings appear in journal Cell Metabolism said: I’m still amazed at the degree of fat loss that occurs. Explaining how new technology had threatened face-to-face socializing, he added: ‘It’s not just a sedentary lifestyle and high calorie foods, but an increasing lack of social engagement.’
[5]Co-author Dr. Lei Cao said: ‘Loneliness is a profound factor for cancer and death; it’s on par with cigarette smoking. Social engagement is very important’.

[1]Weighing too much can damage your health，and obesity is a growing problem for both kids and adults around the world．
[2]Sleep might be one answer to the problem．A new study has found that elementary school students who slept too little were more likely to gain pounds．
[3]Past studies have shown a link between sleeping less and weighing more，but scientists have had a tough time determining“which came first，the chicken or the egg，”says Julie C．Lumeng of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor．
[4] In other words，it hasn't been clear whether kids who weigh too much have trouble sleeping，or whether leads to weight gain．Both scenarios Seemed equally possible．
[5] To get a better idea of which causes which，Lumeng and colleagues interviewed the parents of 785 third graders from around the United States．The parents answered questions about how well their kids slept that year．Three years later, the parents answered the same questions.
[6]By sixth grade，18 percent of kids involved in the study were obese．The scientists found no relationship between weight and the students’race or gender．It also didn't matter how strict their parents were，or whether they were boys or girls．Obesity struck all of these groups equally.
[7]Instead，sleep seemed to be the key factor．Over the 3 years of the study, the children averaged a healthy 9．5 hours of sleep a night．Some kids．however, slept a lot more—or less—than others.
[8]For the sixth graders，every hour of sleep above the 9．5-hour average was linked to a 20 percent lower risk of being obese．Sleep appeared doubly important for the third graders．Every extra hour of sleep they got was linked to a 40 percent drop in obesity by sixth grade．
