　　How to Get Prepared for a Job

　　As a result of the population booming in the past, the competition in job markets is getting much fiercer. As college students who are to graduate in the future, we must prepare ourselves when still on campus in order to gain an upper hand.

　　There are several things we college students can do to sharpen our competitive edge. First, start preparing early. We all know that it is the early bird that catches the worm. It is too late to consider our future career upon graduation. Why not plan beforehand? Second, we should attach greater importance to our personalities such as honesty, cooperation and perseverance. They are more important than appearance in landing a job although it is advantageous to have a neat look. Third, we should make a close self-examination so as to know what our weaknesses and strengths are so that we can do something about them to improve ourselves. Lastly, we can take some preliminary training for the job we’d like to have. For example, if an English major wants to work as a certificated public accountant, he’d better acquaint himself with some financial knowledge while on campus.

　　In a word, opportunity will only favor those with a ready mind. Just figure out what we’d like to do in the future and act accordingly.

　　Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)

　　本文從失業這個話題入手，分析了失業的利弊。并通過列舉一些失業者的經歷，論證失業并非就是完全令人沮喪的災難。

　　1. N 大意題。文章述及數人失業后給各自生活帶來了令人意想不到的好處，并未表明失業即福的觀點。

　　2. Y 先找到Lisa Perez這個名字。Community Involvement標題下第一段 “…become obsessed with homemaking…” 即證明了該命題表述正確。

　　3. Y Community Involvement標題下的第四段提到 “…to meet powerful and well�瞔onnected people.” 所以該陳述是正確的。

　　4. N Community Involvement標題下的第三段，Perez 說“Volunteering takes the focus off of you. One thing you have that’s still valuable is your time. And, of course, you learn that there are thousands of people with a life that’s much worse than yours,” 可見Perez并沒有后悔做義務工作。

　　5. Y 標題Continuing Education下的第一段第二句話“This is a lot of time, especially for hard-charging high-performers who are not used to having any free time.”表明了該陳述正確。
