It was last year when I noticed the problem．I guess I was too devoted in high school to    7   she needed someone there for her．Anyway，she made a new best friend and so did I．Then I didn’t know why，but she started cutting herself!

My boss’s daughter was studying in the Philippines. He asked me if my husband and I could take care of her. He thought his daughter would be able to improve her English communication skills in this way.
After days of thinking, we agreed. He then brought her here and left after 3 days. I thought that my boss’s daughter was well-mannered, but that was wrong.
After a month of staying in the Philippines, she started to show her true colors. When my husband asked her what she wanted for breakfast, she answered him in a rude way. From then on, we experienced fights at home. There was a time when we didn’t talk to her for a week as a punishment of not being good to us. What I hated most was that she didn’t care about other people’s feelings. She ate ahead of us when we were still working and didn’t leave anything for us. So we had to separate her food from ours to avoid such a problem.
The worst thing about her was that she shouted at us. I was wondering if she did this to her parents. We told this to her parents, but unfortunately I didn’t think that solved the problem. This situation lasted for almost 8 months. Our patience was tested during that time.
We tried to teach her everything we could to make her a better person, but I guess 8 months may not to be enough. We even tried to understand her and adjust for her, but it didn’t work. I just hope that she learned something from us and from other Filipinos.

If you’re finding it tough to land a job, try expanding your job-hunting plan to include the following:
Set your target.
While you should always keep your options open to changing your mind , you should also be sure to target exactly what you want in a job. A job-hunt with a clear target will surely help you achieve better results than an aimless one.
Schedule plenty of interviews.
Use every possible method to get interviews-answering ads, using search firms , getting in touch with companies directly , surfing the Web, and networking(向同行请教 ). Even if a job is not perfect for you, every interview can become one of your positive experiences.
Follow up
Even if someone does not hire you ,write them a thank –you note for the interview. 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 if the original position you applied for—or any other position , for that matter –is open. Do this with every position you interview for, and you may just catch a break!
Make it your full-time job
You can’t find a job by looking sporadically( 断续地) . You have to make time for it. If you’re unemployed and looking , devote as much time as you would to a full –time job. If you have a job while you’re looking, figure out an organized schedule to maximize your searching time.
Network vertically(纵向地 )
In the search stage of your job hunt , talk to people who are on a level above you in your desired industry. They’ll have an accurate and deep understanding that people at your level won’t have , and will be in a good position to hire you or recommend you to be hired .
Keep your spirits up
Looking for a job is one of the toughest things you will ever have to do, keep up your confidence , continue your efforts, and think positively, and eventually you will get a job you want.
小题1:From the passage , it can be learned that to get a job , one should absolutely avoid___.
A．having as many interviews as possible
B．looking without a clear target
C．applying for the same position a second time
D．changing his goal set previously
小题2:Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A．It will be of great help for you to seek advice from experienced job hunters
B．There can’t be too much time for you to hunt for a job if you are out of work
C．There is no point having the interview unless a job is perfect for you.
D．There is no need for you to write letters to the company that refused you
小题3:According to the passage , it can better help job hunters get hired by ______.
A．consulting higher level people in their desired industries in advance
B．working out a well organized timetable for their job interviews
C．recommending themselves to the company they desire to work for
D．taking a positive attitude toward their future job–hunt success

B．Advice for Successful Job Hunters
C．Tricks for Job-hunt Success
D．Guidance from Successful Job Hunters
I was blind, but I was ashamed of it if it was known. I refused to use a white stick and hated asking for help. After all, I was a teenager girl, and I couldn’t bear people to look at me and think I was not like them. I must have been a terrible danger on the roads, coming across me wandering through the traffic, motorists probably would have to step rapidly on their brakes. Apart from that, there were all sorts of disasters that used to occur on the way to and from work.
One evening, I got off the bus about halfway home where I had to change buses, and as usual I ran into something,“I’m awfully sorry,”I said and stepped forward only to run into it again. When it happened a third time, I realized I had been apologizing to a lamppost. This was just one of the stupid things that constantly happened to me. So I carried on and found the bus stop, which was a request stop, where the bus wouldn’t stop unless passengers wanted to get on or off. No one else was there and I had to try to guess if the bus had arrived.
Generally in this situation, because I hated showing I was blind by asking for help, I tried to guess at the sound. Sometimes I would stop a big lorry and stand there feeling stupid as it drew away. In the end, I usually managed to swallow my pride and ask someone at the stop for help.
But on this particular evening no one joined me at the stop; It seemed that everyone had suddenly decided not to travel by bus. Of course I heard plenty of buses pass, or I thought I did. But because I had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself, I let them all go by. I stood there alone for half an hour without stopping one. Then I gave up. I decided to walk on to the next stop.
小题1:The girl refused to ask for help because she thought_________.
A．she might be recognized
B．asking for help looked silly
C．she was normal and independent
D．being fond blind was embarrassing
小题2:After the girl got off the bus that evening, she_________.
A．began to run
B．hit a person as usual
C．hit a lamppost by accident
D．was caught by something
小题3:At the request stop that evening, the girl___________.
A．stopped a big lorry
B．stopped the wrong bus
C．made no attempt to stop the bus
D．was not noticed by other people
小题4:What was the problem with guessing at the sound to stop a bus?
A．Other vehicles also stopped there.
B．It was unreliable for making judgments.
C．More lorries than buses responded to the girl.
D．It took too much time for the girl to catch the bus.
小题5:Finally the girl decided to walk to the next stop, hoping__________.
A．to find people there
B．to find more buses there
C．to find the bus by herself there
D．to find people more helpful there

I was doing some last-minute Christmas shopping in a toy store. A nicely dressed little girl was  36  the teddy bears(泰迪熊) beside her father  37 she saw a little boy walk in and stop in front of the Pokémon toys. His jacket was obviously too small. He had money in his hand.  38 , it looked no more than five dollars at most. He was with his father as well, and  39  picking up the Pokémon video games. Each time he showed one to his father, his father  40  his head, “No”.
Rather  41 , the boy gave up the video games and chose a book of stickers  42 . After they walked away, the little girl ran over to the Pokémon video games. She excitedly picked up one  43  on top of the others, and raced down toward the check-out（结账处）. I picked up my purchases and  44 the girl and her father.
Then, much to the little girl’s  45 , the little boy and his father got in line  46 her and me. After the video was paid for and bagged, the little girl  47 it back to the cashier(收银员) and  48  something to her. The cashier smiled and put the  49 under the counter(柜台). I was putting things in my bag when the little boy came up to the cashier. The cashier said, “  50  , you’re my hundredth customer today, and you win a prize!” and she handed the boy the Pokémon game. The boy could only   51  in disbelief. It was, he said,   52  what he had wanted! The little girl and her father had been standing at the doorway, and I saw the biggest and  53 smile on that little girl I have ever seen in my life.
I suddenly understood that the world is not  54 into the strong who care and the  55 who are cared for. We must each in turn care and be cared.
