5-2 We all know that employers check out the social media accounts of potential candidates， but did you know that they also look at staff accounts? Three months ago， I had just started a job in a restaurant. The first Saturday I worked there we had a staff shortage as quite a few people were off ill. At lunch time， I was left to serve about 20 customers by myself! As you can imagine， service was slow， and a few customers were quite rude to me. By the end of the day， I had a terrible headache， sore feet and was in a very bad mood. I just wanted to let off some steam， so I went home and wrote a blog post about the terrible day I＇d had. It was supposed to be funny， but I did bad-mouth some of the customers， especially a large woman wearing a purple coat who had shouted at me because her coffee was cold. Then I shared the blog post to my social media accounts. That was a big mistake. I had forgotten that I was friends with my boss on social media. Unfortunately for me， the woman in the purple coat who I had described in my blog post turned out to be his wife! I was called into my boss’ office and fired the next day. What did I learn from this? Never write anything negative about your work on social media: it will always come back to bite you. 47. What was the writer’s job before she was fired?

A、　 She was a waitress.

B、　 She was a cook.

C、　 She was a blogger.

D、　 She was a cleaner.

答案：A

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. 31. Choose the best title for the article.

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. 23. What is the writer’s advice about asking questions?

9-2 How to start strong at work You’ve had a successful job interview. Congratulations! What comes next is equally important to your chances of career success - your first day on the job. How do you make a positive impact on your new colleagues and boss? Remember the preparation you did before your interview? You’ll need to be just as well-prepared for your first day of a new job. This means thinking about the questions you will need to ask in order to be successful in your role. On your first day， make sure you arrive for work at least 15 minutes early. If you haven’t done the commute before， practise it once or twice during rush hour. This will help to prevent you being surprised by heavy traffic. Make sure you introduce yourself to your new colleagues. Prepare a short introduction， saying who you are， where you worked before and what your new role is. Whatever you do， don’t spend the day alone， as this can become a habit which is hard to break. Remember to put your cell-phone on silent. You need to be 100 percent present at work， especially on your first day. You’ll find it harder to connect with your colleagues if you are busy checking your phone for messages. Finally， make sure to learn the unwritten rules of your office. Finding out about where to wash your coffee cups will show that you are the kind of person who cares about the workspace you share with others. 89. How should you behave around your colleagues?

8-1 Sometimes, interviewers will ask questions to find out more about the skills you have. For example, employers might want to see if you are a good team worker or if you are able to solve problems. A good way to answer these questions is with the STAR acronym. STAR stands for Situation, Task, Action and Result. Here is how this works. Imagine you are asked to talk about a time you showed leadership skills. Using the STAR technique, you might say something like: “Two years ago I was made captain of the basketball team. We had a big competition coming up, and the team hadn’t won a match in ten years. I decided to start an intensive training program. We trained every night for three hours. It was hard work, but I motivated my team members by giving them small rewards, like candy, when they scored a basket. In the end we won the competition and now we’re the most successful basketball team in our city!” The story is a good example of the STAR technique. It describes the situation (being captain of the basketball team) the task (having to win the competition) the action (motivating the team) and the result (winning). It’s impossible to predict exactly what you’ll be asked at an interview, but If you practice talking about some of your work and study experiences using the STAR technique, your answers will be well-structured and more likely to make a good impression.73 The writer gives an example of STAR in the article. What is the situation they describe?
