5-1 My dream job: being a social media manager I’ve been a social media manager since graduating last year. You might be asking yourself what a social media manager does. Well, let me explain. A social media manager manages the social media accounts of businesses or individuals to help them to achieve their business or career goals. Personally, I specialize in helping individuals to achieve their professional goals through social media. Often this means helping them to develop a presence on social media so that they are more likely to catch the eye of a recruiter in their chosen field. Often, I’ll work with a client for a few weeks, and then receive a message from them afterwards saying, “Guess what? I got the job of my dreams thanks to your advice!” When this happens, I feel my job is rewarding and that I am making a difference to people’s lives in my own way. Sometimes the work I do involves helping people to promote a product, for example a book they have written. Either way, I have to work with my clients on achieving good posting habits (not posting too often or too rarely) and developing a strong, positive brand. The first thing I have to do with any client is to ask them questions about what they want to achieve through social media. It’s important that I listen to their ideas. In fact, I’d say that being able to communicate effectively is the most important skill you need if you want to succeed in this career. 45. What skill does the writer think is key to succeeding in this job?

A. 　 Communication.

B. 　 IT.

C. 　 Teamwork.

D. 　 Time management.

6-2 New year, new goal! For the past five years, I made the same promise to myself every spring: “I am going to get into shape”. Each year, I promised myself that I was going to lose weight and go down two dress sizes, so that I would look good (or at least normal) on the beach. However, it was the same story every year. Just two weeks after I’d made the resolution, I went back to my old bad habits. This year I decided to do things differently. I realized that my goal of dropping two dress sizes was unrealistic, and probably even unhealthy. When I examined my goal, I decided that it was too short-sighted to be meaningful. Why would I work so hard for just two weeks on the beach? When I thought about it, I realized it was more important to be healthy and strong than to look slim. Examining and changing my goal made a big difference. Instead of trying to lose weight, a friend and I decided we’d run a marathon in July. We planned our exercise schedule together, which was really motivating. We ate healthily, without worrying about our weight. Instead of obsessing about how we looked, we focused on our running performance. So, what happened? Not only did I manage to run the marathon, I also went down a dress size. What did I take away from this experience? What we think we need isn’t always what’s good for us. It pays to examine our goals. 56. What goal did the writer set herself every year for 5 years?

A. 　 She promised herself she’d lose weight.

B. 　 She promised herself she’d run a marathon.

C. 　 She promised herself she’d eat more healthily.

D. 　 She promised herself she’d spend more time on the beach.

6-1 Be your own life coach! The demand for life coaches has grown in recent years， with many celebrities claiming that their lives have been improved by a few sessions of coaching. So， what does a life coach do， and can they change your life for the better? Life coaches claim to be able to help their clients work towards achieving their goals. Sue Berry， a life coach， says， “As a qualified life coach， I have several different clients now. Basically， I help people to feel better about their life， work and relationships. Many clients come to me feeling very unhappy. By asking them questions and listening carefully to their answers， I help them move forwards and achieve goals that they could never have dreamed of achieving themselves.” Life coaching is a multi-million-dollar industry， with many life coaches charging hundreds of dollars for a session. Is it worth it? Not everyone thinks so. Melvyn Clark， a careers advisor at Leicester University， thinks that people should take responsibility for their own destiny. He says， “People spend lots of money on getting advice from professionals. In fact， there’s a belief that the more you spend， the less you actually have to do by yourself. Well， I believe that if you want to make real changes in your life， it has to come down to you. Spending hundreds to talk to someone else about your problems will only empty your bank account.” What do you think? Would you pay someone to help you get some direction in your life? 51. According to the article， what has made life coaching more popular?

A. 　 People have become more ambitious about what they want in life.

B. 　 People have more money to spend on things they don’t need.

C. 　 Famous people have spoken about using life coaches.

D. 　 People are finding life more difficult and so need help to get through it.

1-2 My life as a bed tester Last year， I graduated from art school without any definite ideas about what I wanted to do. I knew I didn’t want to work nine to five， and I also didn’t really want to work in an office. Then one day， I saw an advertisement on the graduate career website. It said: “Do you appreciate the importance of a good night’s sleep? Are you interested in flexible working hours? Why not consider a career in bed testing!” I’ve always enjoyed sleeping， so I decided to send my résumé and a cover letter. The interview was very unusual. I was asked to lie down on two different beds and make notes on what I thought about them. It was the strangest interview I’ve ever had， and I couldn’t believe my luck when I found I had got the job. After that， I worked for a year testing beds. I think I slept in about 50 or 60 beds every month! My biggest job was when I visited a big， luxury hotel. I was offered $10，000 to sleep in each one of their hundreds of beds and write about how comfortable they were. It wasn’t a bad salary for such relaxing work. One of the best things about the job is when people at parties ask me what I do. Telling them I am a professional sleeper always gets the conversation started! I don’t know if I’ll do this job forever， but for now it suits me just fine. 10. What are the writer’s plans for the future?

A. 　 To be a bed tester forever.

B. 　 To give up the job very soon.

C. 　 To continue the job in the short term.

D. 　 To set up a bed-testing business.
