Do you find 1       (get) up in the morning so difficult that it's painful? This might be called laziness,but Dr. Kleitman has a new 2       (explain) . He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.

During the hours when you devote to your work you may say that you're "hot". That's true. The time of day when you feel most 3       ( energy) is when your cycle of body temperature is 4        its peak. For some people the peak comes during the forenoon. For others it 5        in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so,but it leads to such familiar monologues (自言自语) as: "Get up,John!You'll be late for work again!" The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature and energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean,and which cycle each member of the family has.

You can't change your energy cycle,but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help. Maybe your're sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay 6        late anyway. Counteract (乂于抗) your cycle to some extent 7        habitually staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day,rise before your usual hour. This won't change your cycle,but you'll get up steam (鼓足干劲) and work better at your low point.

Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before 8       (put) your feet on the floor. 9       (avoid) the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible,do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks 10       (require) more energy of concentration for your sharper hours.

The season of college graduation is on. The challenge facing every graduate is to find a satisfactory job. Perhaps you have started to or are involved in hunting.

If you're finding it tough to land a job,you may as well try expanding your jobhunting plan to include the following tactics:

Set your goal. While you should always keep your opinions open to compromise,you should also be sure to target exactly what you want in a job. 1       Where there is something to do,there is a hidden chance.

Schedule ample interviews. Use every possible way to get interviews―surfing the Internet,answering advertisements,contacting companies directly,etc. 2       Keep trying. Even if someone does not hire you,write them a thankyou note. Then,some weeks later,send another brief letter to explain that you still have not found the perfect position and that you will be available to interview again. 3       Make it your fulltime job. 4       You have to make time for it. If you're unemployed and looking for a job,devote as much time as you would to a fulltime job.

Develop interpersonal relationship. 5       They'll have some insights that people at your own level won't have,and will be in a good position to hire you or recommend you to be hired. Maintain your confidence,stay persistence,and think positively,and eventually you will get a job that suits you.

   A. Do this with every position you interview for,and you may just catch a break.

   B. If you have a job while you're looking for a new one,figure out an organized schedule to maximize your searching time.

   C. Even if a job is not perfect for you,every interview can be seen as a positive experience.

   D. A specific job hunt will be more efficient than a haphazard one.

   E. In the research phase of your jobhunting,talk to people who are on a level above you in your desired industry.

   F. You can't find a job by looking occasionally.

   G. Keep your spirits up,because looking for a job is one of the toughest things you will ever have to do.
