　　When you are in a place where you are hunting for a new job or career, you will find that there are several things that you should pay attention to．Jobs and careers are fewer than you expect, especially when satisfying employment is something you need to seriously think about．How are you going to find the job that you want and what should you avoid(避免)on your way?When you want to make use of your job search, take a moment and think about the things that you must avoid at all costs．

　　One of the most important rules is never to compromise(妥协)on the things you ask for or desire or it will badly affect your life and peace of mind．Keep in mind your basic expectations of a dream job．They might be something about monetary compensation or you might find they have something to do with time off．Whatever they are, make sure that you do not accept a job without them．Your requirements might not be easy to meet, but you have the right to try and achieve them．

　　What's more, don't shy away from odd(临时的)jobs that might actually take you to the place that you want to be in．Sometimes, finding the right job is a matter of luck and chance after you have been searching and putting in a lot of effort．And if something unexpected happens, remember that taking the chance is of great importance and is something you might want to seriously consider．As long as you keep your goals in mind, you are going to be doing much better than other people during the job search．

　　If you are looking for the right job, another thing that you can do to make sure that you get the right kind of employment is to market yourself．When you do nothing to push yourself forward, you will be the one suffering for it．If required, give enough encouragement to yourself and try to confidently look at all that you have．Make sure that you can show your skills and abilities．If the jobs that you have set your sights on are challenging, set goals for yourself and work hard at them．The more efforts you put in marketing yourself, the more your chances of obtaining the job you like will be．

　　Remember that when you are working on a job search, you should not short-change yourself．This is because you will only harm yourself by setting low goals．

　　When difficult people expresses themselves orally, they generally want at least two things: they've been heard and they've been understood．As a good communicator should be a good listener, five steps are advocated toward good listening．

　　The first step is cooperating．How does a difficult person know that you're listening and understanding? In fact, it's through the way you look and sound while he is talking．You may help him to fully express his thoughts and feelings．You do this by nodding your head in agreement, making certain sounds of understanding．

　　When the person begins to repeat what's been said, it's a signal of step two: turning back．It means that you repeat back some words he is using, sending a clear signal that you’ve listening carefully and that you think what he is saying is important．

　　Having heard what he has to say, the next step is clarifying．At this point, you start to gather information about what is being communicated．Ask same open－ended questions, which will allow you to figure out what intention he is hoping to satisfy．

　　The fourth step is to summarize what you've heard．This allows you to make sure that both you and the difficult person the same page．When you do this, two things happen．First, if you've missed something, he can fill in the details．Second you’ve shown that you're making an effort to understand completely．This increases possibility of gaining cooperation from him．

　　Having listened carefully, you’ve now arrived at the point of confirming with the person that he feels satisfied that his thoughts have been fully voiced．Ask if he feels understood．

　　Then enough sincere listening, questioning, and remembering are brought together, understanding is usually achieved and a difficult person becomes less difficult and more cooperative．

信息匹配

以下是五位专家的建议。请匹配这些建议及对应的生活感想或经验介绍(A、B、C、D、E和F)。选项中有一项是多余选项。

1．You should watch where your weight accumulates．You can use the waist to hip ratio to find if there is too much fat around the middle．Belly fat is especially dangerous because it release free fatty acids directly to the liver, virtually flooding it with fat．

2．If a particular food is important to you, eat it, but work it off．You should try to learn the art of compromise．

3．At the same time．the three-for-one is relatively simple to use．Fat grams and calories are listed on almost all boxed, canned or packaged foods-you have only to read the label and follow the rule．A five-year-old patient of mine can do this．

4．Drinking water is basic, and drinking enough of it is necessary．Patients are sometimes surprised that basic things work when they do them consistently．

5．Consume antioxidant foods．They protect the cholesterol(胆固醇)from oxidative damage,which helps prevent damage to blood vessel walls．

A．More than nine years ago I was 70 pounds overweight and wore a very big dress．I had tried different diets and lost weight only to gain it back．Finally a simple "three-for-one" fat rule worked for me：consuming no more than three grams of fat for every 100 calories per serving．Following the rule and eating only foods that contain less than 30 percent fat, I spent eight months getting down to a size seven, and I've kept the weight off for nine years．

B．And for foods that aren't packaged, you rely on what we already know about them．Red meat,as well as dishes made or served with butter, gravy, cream sauce or cheese, are almost never less than 30 percent fat--so you just don't eat them．On the other hand, some non-packed foods－all fruits and vegetables except avocadoes and olives－always pass the test．So do most fish, but not when fried．

C．I like vegetables, which are rich in vitamins．Most foods containing vitamins C and E(such as sweet potatoes, tomatoes, spinach and broccoli)are low in calories and are known as antioxidants(抗氧化物质)．They can help reduce the possibility to develop hardening the arteries(动脉)

D．I gain weight around the belly--what we call abdominal obesity, the worst kind．The tendency seems to be hereditary(遗传的), and it's common among men．This problem increases the risk of a stroke or heart attack．A guide I use in estimating belly fat is the waist-to-hip ratio or WHR．To find yours, divide the circumference(周围)of your waist by the circumference of you hips．Women with ratios above 0.8 and men with ratios above 1.0 are at increased health risk．

E．My ways of keeping healthy are very simple, and they are among our everyday activities：eating healthy food and doing exercise．In addition, I manage to do those basic things, such as drinking water, sleeping well and eating less fat．Sometimes I do some of the other things I used to do in my life like walking for half an hour a day．

F．Although I've put on ten pounds．I'm healthy and in good shape．I eat food that's good for me…but I work off Susan's homemade brownies(巧克力蛋糕), for example, To offset these extra calories, I walk for an hour or more, three times a week…often with Susan．We're both busy and this is one way we have some quiet time together．Equally important, it permits me to practice dieting's fine art of compromise．

　　Finding a way to feed a world population that does not make climate change worse, nor otherwise do lasting damage to the environment, is arguably the single greatest collective(集体的)challenge the world faces．

　　Working out how to feed a world population that is projected to top 7 billion this month is a huge task．A sixth of the current global population already goes hungry - another billion is malnourished(营养不良)．And the global population may grow to 9 billion within the next 40 years．

　　A report, recently published by the UN Food and Agriculture Organization, the International Fund for Agricultural Development and the World Food Program, entitled "The State of Food Insecurity in the World 2011", found that 32 countries are already in need of external aid due to crop failures, conflicts or insecurity, natural disasters and high domestic food prices．

　　The UN reports that about 25,000 people die every day of hunger or hunger-related causes, the majority children．

　　It is high time to make it clearer what can be done to lessen the effect of rising food prices on the vulnerable(易受影响的)and World Food Day is designed to increase awareness, understanding and spread information about global hunger．

　　“Food prices from crises to stability” was chosen as the theme for this year’'s World Food Day, which is held every year on Oct 16．

　　Upswings in food prices represent a major threat to food security in developing countries．According to the World Bank, rising food costs in 2010-2011 pushed nearly 70 million people into extreme poverty(贫穷)．

　　And the United Nations is predicting rising food prices over the next decade．Volatile food prices make more people vulnerable to food shortages and poverty, especially those in small, import-dependent countries．

　　Meaningful long-term alleviation(减轻)of hunger is rooted in the alleviation of poverty, as poverty leads to hunger．World hunger is a terrible symptom of world poverty．

　　People can be addicted to(沉溺于)different things, e．g．alcohol, drug, certain food, or even television．People who have such an addiction are compulsive(强迫的)：they have a very powerful psychological need that they feel they must satisfy．According to psychologists, many people are compulsive spenders．They feel that they must spend money．This compulsion, like most others, is impossible to explain reasonably．For compulsive spenders who buy on credit(以赊欠方式)，are even more exciting than money．In other words, compulsive spenders feel that with credit, they can do anything．Their pleasure in spending large amounts is actually greater than the pleasure that they get from the things they buy．

　　There is even a special psychology(心理学)of bargain bunting．To save money, of course, most people look for sales, low prices, and discounts．Compulsive bargain hunters, however, often buy things that they don’t need just because they are cheap．They want to believe that they are helping their budgets(预算)，but they are really playing an exciting game．When they can buy something for less than other people, they feel that they are winning．Most people, experts claim, have two reasons for their behavior：good reason for things that they do and the real reason．

　　It is not only scientists, of course, who understand the psychology of spending habits, but also business people．Stores, companies, and advertisers use psychology to increase business．They consider people’s needs for love, power, or influence, their basic values, their beliefs and opinions, and so on in their advertising and sales methods．

　　Psychologists often use a method called “behavior therapy(疗法)” to help individuals solve their personality problems．In the same way, they can help people who feel that they have problems with money．

　　Invention is a creative process．An open and curious mind enables one to see beyond what is known．Seeing a new possibility, a new connection or relationship can spark(引发)an invention．Inventive thinking frequently involves combining concepts or elements from different fields that would not normally be put together．Sometimes inventors skip over the boundaries between separate fields．Ways of thinking, materials, processes or tools from one field are used as no one else has imagined in a different field．

　　Play can lead to invention．Childhood curiosity like playing in a sand box, imagination can develop one’s play nature－an inner need according to Carl Jung．Inventors feel the need to play with things that interest them, and to explore, and this internal drive brings about interesting creations．

　　Inventing can also be an obsession(痴迷)．Inventors often imagine a new idea, seeing it in their mind’s eye．New ideas can arise when the conscious mind turns away from the subject or problem; or when the focus is on something else; or even while relaxing or sleeping．An unusual idea may come all of a sudden! For example, after years of working to figure out the general theory of relativity, the solution came to Einstein suddenly in a dream “like a giant die making an unforgettable impress, a huge map of the universe summarized itself in one clear vision”．

　　Invention can also be accidental．Insight(洞察力)is also an important element of invention．It may begin with questions or doubt．It may begin by recognizing something unusual．It may be useful and it could open a new way for exploration．For example, the odd metallic color of plastic made by accidentally adding too much catalyst(催化剂)led scientists to explore its metal-like properties(性能)．They then invented electrically conductive plastic and light emitting(散发)plastic－an invention that won the Nobel Prize in 2000 and has led to new kind of lighting, display screens, wallpaper and much more．
