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.

4. Paul ________ （have to / should）start arriving on time for work. The boss is getting annoyed.

5. You ________ （have to / should）arrive ten minutes before the interview， so you have time to relax.

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. 19. What’s the writer’s opinion about connecting with your interviewer on social media?

A. 　 It’s not a very polite thing to do.

B. 　 It’s a good way of growing your network.

C. 　 It will make sure you get a job offer from them.

D. 　 You should wait for your interviewer to invite you to connect.

4-1 Do you often feel stressed out on a Sunday night? Do you dream of how much better your life would be if you had a different job? And are you jealous of your friends’ careers， which always sound much better than yours? If you recognise any of the above， you probably need a career change. The question is， how are you going to go about getting one? First of all， think about what you’d rather do. Deciding what you like and dislike in your current job is a good starting point. Once you have a good idea of what you want to do， it＇s time to upgrade your skill set. Think about what you are able to do and how this matches the career you are interested in. For example， you may be interested in a career as a tour guide. Which skills does a tour guide need? Which of these do you have， and which do you need to work on developing? Finally， set yourself some goals， both long and short term. Write a list in which you include your goals for the year， the next six months and then the next six weeks. It can be a good idea to share the goals you have made with a friend， as this can help you to stay motivated. Changing your career is not always easy， but life is too short to stay in a job which does not make us happy and which does not fully utilise our skills. 32. According to the writer， which of the following is a sign you need a career change?

A. 　 Feeling that you don’t earn enough money.

B. 　 Feeling anxious at the end of the weekend.

C. 　 Spending lots of time reading job advertisements.

D. 　 Not getting on well with your colleagues.

7-2 My life as a pet food tester When I tell people that I work as a pet food tester， I get a lot of different responses. Some people laugh， some look disgusted， and others ask me what the food tastes like and how much of it I have to eat. It certainly is an interesting job. However， it’s also a job which needs a high level of skill and qualifications. I have a degree in nutrition， so I know about the kind of food that pets need to stay healthy. An important part of my job is writing reports about the food I taste and making suggestions about how it can be improved. Tasting the food is just one part of what I do. How do I go about tasting the pet food? First of all， I smell it carefully. The food has to smell nice， otherwise the animals won’t want to eat it. Also， pet owners don’t want bad-smelling food in their homes! After smelling the food， I taste it. I keep it in my mouth for a few minutes， taking notes on how it tastes and how it feels in my mouth. It’s really important the food tastes good. If I don’t like it， then probably the animals won’t like it either. The food isn’t the best part of my job， but there are other perks—like the salary. I earn $50， 000 a year. Now that leaves a good taste in my mouth! 68. When doing his/her job， what does the writer do first?

A. 　 He/She writes notes about the food.

B. 　 He/She tastes the food.

C. 　 He/She studies the food packaging.

D. 　 He/She smells the food.

3-1 Internships are a great way for graduates to get valuable work experience. However， they don’t always go smoothly. To find out more about potential internship problems， and how to solve them， read on. Being given trivial work For ambitious interns， being given small tasks such as making tea can be very frustrating. Just remember that all tasks， no matter how small， are important to your company’s success. Complete these tasks as well as you can—you will soon be given more interesting things to do. Feeling worried about asking questions It can be hard to ask questions when everybody else seems to know exactly what they＇re doing. However， everybody knows that you are an intern and they do not expect you to know everything. So， focus on what you need to know and ask the questions you need to ask. Getting too much work Some companies hire fewer interns than they need. This can result in your feeling overworked. Speak to your manager if think you have too much to do. Perhaps the problem is your poor time management skills， and in this case， your manager will help you to become more organized. Or， if you have been given too much work， they will try to reduce it. Finally remember that starting a new job is always challenging， but with time it becomes easier. Keep a positive attitude and you will soon settle into your new role. 22. What should you do if you are given trivial work?

B. 　 Ask your boss if you can do something else.
