Internet, which are great ways. However, job fairs (招聘会) may open up more doors for you and allow
you to build a sound future career(事业).
A job fair allows many companies from your area, as well as other areas to gather together to recruit
suitable people to help the development of their business. These companies typically attend the job fairs
to accept new people into their team.
Take Cumberland in Maryland as an example, the job fair is held at the Holiday Inn's large
meetingroom, which is next to the main hall. Dates change but the event lasts from 8 am until 6 pm throughout the whole week. The job fair is usually held several times every year; dates can be found in the
Cumberland Times News or on the newspaper's website. Also, information about the companies that will be attending, is offered, along with these companies' web addresses for you, so that you can make more
preparations based on the needs of the companies you are interested in.
You must know that you can't show all of your talents, skills and abilities on a resume (简历) alone, so
it's important to leave a good and lasting impression in employers' minds in a very short time. So you must make sure that you have given your best to the employers. Get a handshake with all of the employers you
speak to and, introduce yourself clearly enough so that they will remember you in case you get an interview in the near future. Seldom, people are employed on these job fairs for the qualifications (资格证书) they
show.
You should take wi
th you at least 20 copies of your resume. Prepare a notebook and a pen to write down what is told you by the employers. This shows your interest and willingness to learn.
B. job fairs provide more chances than other ways
C. the companies that attend job fairs all come from an area
D. the more resumes people bring, the better jobs they will find
B. Give somebody some information
C. Put forward some new opinions.
D. Attend an important meeting.
B. help people know more about the companies.
C. make people get the tickets for the job fairs
D. make the companies known by more people
B. Showing the willingness to learn to the employers.
C. Performing your best to the employers.
D. Showing your qualifications to the employers.
B. Finding jobs through the Internet isn't useful at all.

also know that most diets and quick weight-loss plans have about as much substance as a politician's campaign
pledges. You're better off finding several simple things you can do on a daily basis-along with following the
cardinal rules of eating more vegetables and less fat and getting more physical activity. Together, they should
send the scale numbers in the right direction: down.
1. Treat high-calorie foods as jewels in the crown. Make a spoonful of ice cream the jewel and a bowl
of fruit the crown. Balance a little cheese with a lot of salad.
2. Eat five or six small meals or snacks a day instead of three large meals. A 1999 South African
study found that when men ate parts of their morning meal at intervals over five hours, they consumed almost
30 percent fewer calories at lunch than when they ate a single breakfast. Other studies show that even if you
eat the same number of calories distributed this way, your body releases less insulin, which keeps blood sugar
steady and helps control hunger.
3. Walk for 45 minutes a day. The reason we're suggesting 45 minutes instead of the typical 30 is that a
Duke University study found that while 30 minutes of daily walking is enough to prevent weight gain in most
relatively sedentary (久坐的) people, exercise beyond 30 minutes results in weight and fat loss. Burning an
additional 300 calories a day with three miles of brisk walking (45 minutes should do it) could help you lose 30
pounds in a year without even changing how much you're eating.
4. Bring the color blue into your life more often. There's a good reason you won't see many fast-food
restaurants decorated in blue; Believe it or not, the color blue functions as an appetite suppressant. So serve up
dinner on blue plates, dress in blue while you eat, and cover your table with a blue tablecloth. Conversely, avoid
red, yellow, and orange in your dining areas. Studies find they encourage eating.
5. Clean your closet of the "fat" clothes. Once you've reached your target weight, throw out or give
away every piece of clothing that doesn't fit. The idea of having to buy a whole new wardrobe if you gain the
weight back will serve as a strong incentive to maintain your new figure.
B. give advice on losing weight
C. persuade you to go on a diet
D. talk you into giving away clothing that doesn't fit
B. the color blue encourages eating.
C. many fast-food restaurants are decorated in blue.
D. Eating five or six small meals helps reduce weight.
B. a big meal helps control hunger
C. a 45-minute walk a day discourages your appetite for food
D. buying new clothes can reduce weight
B. people should cat more fruit to lose weight
C. going on a diet is they only way to lose weight
D. restaurants should serve food with blue plates
Winter is dangerous because it’s so difficult to know what is going to happen and accidents take place so easily. Fog can be waiting to meet you over the top of a hill. Ice might be hiding under the melting snow, waiting ahead to send you off the road. The car coming to you may suddenly slip across the road.
Rule Number One for driving on icy roads is to drive smoothly. Sudden movements can make a car very difficult to control. So every time you either start or stop your car, increase or reduce your speed, you must be as gentle and slow as possible. Suppose you are driving with a full cup of hot coffee on the seat next to you. Drive so that you wouldn’t spill（溅）it.
Rule Number Two is to pay attention to what might happen. The more ice there is, the further down the road you have to look. Test how long it takes to gently stop your car. Remember that you may be driving more quickly than you think. Generally, allow twice of your usual stopping distance when the road is wet, three times this distance on snow, and even more on ice. Try to stay in control of your car at all times and you will not get into trouble.
