Fred Michel is one of 7.2 million Americans who moonlight, or hold more than one job.
  Once a week, after his day job as medical director of a mental health center, the 40-year-old psychiatrist (精神病大夫) heads to a part-time job at a treatment center for young people. Twice a month, he travels three hours to another teenage treatment center.
  Last year, 5.4 percent of the American workforce held second jobs, according to the US Labor Department, and that looks set to increase this year.
  Many workers like the safety that moonlighting provides, says Carl Hausamn, the writer of "Moonlighting: 148 Great Ways to Make Money to the Side."
  The information from the US Labor Department shows that 40 percent of US moonlighters in 1997 took a second job to meet household expenses or pay off debts. Others save money or buy some special things.
  People also take second jobs with an eye to the future - wanting to try out a new field or gain experience.
  Michel started moonlighting when medical systems were unstable (不稳定的). He wanted to make sure he wasn't tied to one system that ended up failing.
  Just as the purposes for moonlighting vary, the moonlighters cross all age and racial groups. And they work in a variety of industries - no longer just service, office and sale jobs.
  “Technology just affects your ability to make money,” Hausman says. "That makes a frequent change in moonlighting."
  As its name means, moonlighting still occurs mostly at night. And that results in some pressures. Chief among them is time.
  Full-time employers could misunderstand, too. Some companies do not allow after-hour work because they fear it will affect their employees' 9-to-5 performance.
  "The primary employer is saying, ‘Wait, I'm paying you for the sharp, fresh, energetic you,’” says Tom Gimbel, president and founder of LaSalle Staffing in Chicago. "If you' re burning yourself at both ends, it's going to show."
  Still, the good done to the moonlighters can be great. Besides extra income, moonlighters enjoy variety, freedom and chance to do something new. They also may find their part-time jobs strengthen what they do full time.
  Besides, "it's fun," Michel says. Not only do his part-time jobs offer a chance to network, stretch his professional skills and make more money, but they also give him the variety he wouldn't find just in a full-time job.
  "It' s a way of pulling from the spice cabinet" he says, "and offering a little variety throughout the day."
60. What is the article mainly about?
  A. The ways of moonlighting.
  B. The reasons for moonlighting.
  C. The problems with moonlighting.
  D. The kinds of people who moonlight.
61. The reason why Fred Michel began to moonlight is that ________.
  A. he found it exciting to do a part-time job
  B. he needed to make ends meet with more money
  C. he feared he would lose his present job one day
  D. he felt more and more pressure from his employer
62. Some companies don't allow their workers to moonlight because they are afraid ________.
  A. their workers can not do extra-hour work for them
  B. their workers will be too tired to try their best at work
  C. their workers will one day turn to some other different jobs
  D. their workers will not get to work and be off work on time
63. The underlined sentence "It's a way of pulling from the spice cabinet." in the last paragraph means _________.
  A. moonlighting gets you away from the job you don' t enjoy
  B. moonlighting offers you freedom to make extra money
  C. moonlighting strengthens your professional skills
D. moonlighting brings you chances to do something different

In our life, we have rarely expressed our gratitude to those who have lived with us these years. In fact, we do not have to   31  a special time to thank the ones   32  to us. If you have   33  anything about giving thanks, it should be this:   34  it now! Saying thanks is such a(n)   35  way to add happiness to the   36  .

Saying thanks not only brightens someone else’s world, but also brightens yours. If you are feeling   37  or unloved, try reaching out to others. It may be just the medicine that you   38  .

Of course, sometimes you cannot express gratitude   39  . In that case, do not fall into   40 — speak up the first time you have a   41  .

Once a young man, whose name was Mark Brian, was sent to a   42  of India. The villagers, he had been told before, did not have a   43  for “thank you”. But on arriving there, Mark Brian found that those villagers expressed their   44  in other ways. Instead of saying thanks, it is their custom to  45  every favor with a favor of their own, and every kindness with the   46  or more kindness. They did express their thanks.

I   47  if we had no words in our   48  for thank you”, would we do a better job of communicating our gratitude? And would we be more responsive (回应的), more   49  and more caring?

Thankfulness can be transferred (传递) among people all around us—including ourselves,   50  no one ever misunderstands a thankful heart.
