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. 59. What helped to motivate the writer to achieve her goal?

A. 　 She started to enjoy feeling healthier.

B. 　 She kept thinking about how good she would look.

C. 　 She pictured herself on the beach.

D. 　 She worked towards her goal with a friend.

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. 42. Which of the following does the writer NOT mention doing as part of their job?

A. 　 Helping clients to develop good posting habits.

B. 　 Helping clients to promote products.

C. 　 Helping clients to find jobs.

D. 　 Helping clients to understand how different platforms work.

10-2 The benefits of flexible working Many job applicants cite paid vacation, health insurance and a good salary as being most important to them in a job. However, an increasing number of employers now offer flexible working. So, what could flexible working mean for you? Put simply, flexible working means that you, the employee, have some say over when you work. This could mean working from home for some of the time, job-sharing, or working flexitime (adapting your working hours to suit your own life, for example, starting later and finishing later). Flexible working can have many benefits. For example, it can reduce the time you spend travelling to work. If you work 9 to 5 every day, you will be travelling to and from work when the roads are busy. You might be surprised at how much shorter your journey is if you travel to work at 10am instead of 8am. A flexible working schedule can reduce employees’ stress and improve their work-life balance. A recent survey in The Business Times showed that 20 percent of working people are stressed by family relationships and the difficulty of managing their personal and private lives. Working flexibly can allow employees to switch off from their work when they need to, and to spend more quality time with their families. Improved work-life balance can give you more energy, and this will make you more productive when you are at work, leading to increased job satisfaction. So, next time you are job hunting, consider adding flexible working to your wish list. 96. Which sentence best describes the purpose of this article?

A. 　 To weigh up the pros and cons of flexible working

B. 　 To describe the advantages of flexible working

C. 　 To show that flexible working is good for employers

2-2 What to do after an interview There are many articles telling you how to prepare before an interview， but there is less advice about what to do afterwards. However， what you do after an interview is really important. Not only can it help you to prepare for future interviews， but it might also help you to increase your chances of getting the job. It is very important to think about your interview performance. Write down everything you remember， especially the questions you were asked. Then think about how you answered them. Don’t use this as an opportunity to be too negative about your performance， as this will not help with your confidence. Instead， try to be honest with yourself about what you did well， and where you could improve for the next time. Write a thank-you letter to the hiring manager. Not only does this show them that you are grateful for the time they took to speak to you， it is also an opportunity to make you stand out from the other candidates. After your interview， take time to connect with your interviewer on professional social media sites. If they accept your request， it could mean that they are interested in staying in touch. Even if you do not get the job， you will have taken an important step in growing your professional network. Finally， don’t spend all your time waiting to hear how the interview went. Stay calm， focus on learning new skills and start preparing for your next interview. 16. What is the purpose of this article?
