Joyce LeMay is an associate professor of business at Bethel University. She said that college seniors are always amazed by how much work goes into finding a job. “Many college seniors have great resumes (简历) from internships and other part- or full-time jobs. But they are surprised by how long the interviewing process takes,” Many even become discouraged when they are rejected for a role, too. However, there are a lot of ways to increase your chances of finding the perfect role.
“Don’t just look for jobs online,” said LeMay. “Although it’s easy to find jobs on the internet, over 85 percent of job seekers are also looking at the same jobs.” “Hundreds of people can apply for each position and employers get inundated with responses,” she said. If you do find a job online, LeMay recommends first looking within your own contacts. “It’s good to find out if you have someone in your network that could help you get connected,” she said.
LeMay also advises writing a separate application for each role. “Your resume needs to stand out from your competition and the best way to do that is to customize (定制) it to the specific job you are applying for,” said LeMay. In the experience section, be sure to highlight accomplishments that match the job description. This will show a future employer that you’re qualified for the role.
A job search can take three to six months or longer, so don’t take rejection personally. You will not get a job offer from every interview, but don’t let that affect your confidence. It’s important to keep trying. “Many college graduates have their hopes set on one or two companies and when the job doesn’t come through they are devastated (难以承受),” said LeMay. “Keep your mind and your options open— there are many incredible career opportunities you haven’t heard of yet.”
4. What does Joyce LeMay mainly talk about?A.Job rejection is common and frustrating. |
B.College seniors prepare their resumes well. |
C.College seniors do have job opportunities. |
D.Job interviews consume-too much energy. |
A.Charged. | B.Flooded |
C.Trapped | D.Equipped. |
A.The incredible jobs are always there. |
B.Hunting a job helps improve abilities. |
C.Each interview guarantees a job offer. |
D.A positive mind ensures a good interview, |
A.How can you avoid frustration in job hunt? |
B.Why should you make resumes stand out? |
C.Why should you keep your options open? |
D.How can you find your perfect jobs? |
Shocking declines in bird populations are taking place around the world. Loss of natural habitats is cited as the key threat to bird biodiversity. Climate change is identified as a possible driver of bird population declines.
“We are now witnessing the first signs of a new wave of extinctions of continentally distributed bird species,” says lead author Alexander Lees, senior lecturer at Manchester Metropolitan University in the United Kingdom. “Bird diversity peaks globally in the tropics and it is there that we also find the highest number of threatened species.”
The study says about 48% of existing bird species worldwide are known or suspected to be undergoing population declines. Populations are stable for 39% of species. Only 6% are showing increasing population trends, and the status of 7% is still unknown. The study authors reviewed changes in bird biodiversity using data from the International Union for Conservation of Nature’s “Red List” to reveal population changes among the world’s 11,000 bird species, The findings mirror the results of a 2019 study which determined that nearly 3 billion breeding birds have been lost during the past 50 years across the United States and Canada.
Despite their findings, study authors say there is hope for bird conservation efforts, but transformative change is needed. “The fate of bird populations is strongly dependent on stopping the loss of habitats,” says Lees. “That is often driven by demand for resources. We need to better consider how commodity (货物) flows can contribute to biodiversity loss and try to reduce the human footprint on the natural world.”
“Fortunately, the global network of bird conservation organizations taking part in this study have the tools to prevent further loss of bird species and abundance,” adds Rosenberg. “From land protection to policies supporting sustainable resource-use, it all depends on the will of governments to live side by side with nature on our shared planet.”
8. What’s the main cause of bird extinction?A.Significant climate change. | B.Destruction of their habitats |
C.Human’s overuse of wetland. | D.A new wave of bird immigration. |
A.By listing concrete data. | B.By providing examples. |
C.By interviewing-people. | D.By explaining concepts. |
A.Relevant education. | B.Government policies. |
C.Environmental activities. | D.Conservation organizations. |
A.Roles of conservation organizations. |
B.Diversity of global bird species. |
C.Hope for environmental protection |
D.Decline of global bird population. |
As most parts of the country enter the summer flood season, weather events will again put the country’s disaster preparedness to test.
Some areas in the south of the country are experiencing what the National Meteorological Center calls the strongest rainfall in 60 years. Other parts of northwestern and central China, as well as the Yellow and Huaihe river valleys, have been under the control of heat waves.
On Sunday, the Ministry of Water Resources and the China Meteorological Administration issued the year’s first red alert for flash floods. On Monday, the National Meteorological Center sustained red alerts for high temperatures, yellow alerts for storms and fog, and blue alerts for severe convective (对流) weather.
According to experts, this round of strong rainfall will be long-lasting, wide-ranging and of very strong intensity (强度) in some areas. The waters in 75 rivers across the country have already risen above the warning levels.
As the lessons from the past few years have taught us, climate change has considerably increased the frequency, intensity and damaging potential of extreme weather events. And, most worrisome of all, their severity has frequently made people victims before they know it.
The upsetting potential of severe weather would still be beyond most people’s imagination had it not been the 2021 floods in Zhengzhou, capital of Henan province. It exposed the consequences of poor urban planning, inadequate drainage systems, inactive disaster preparedness and slow emergency responses.
The importance of multi-hazard early warning systems and natural disaster response preparedness was highlighted in the sixth Assessment Report that the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change released in August 2021.
The report provided evidence that extreme hydrometeorological events, such as droughts, floods and heat waves, are increasing as is the severity of their impacts on everyday life around the globe as well as harming fragile ecosystems. It concludes that climate change is widespread, rapid and intensifying, and extreme weather will become more frequent.
12. Why were alerts of different levels issued?A.To stress the severity of the rainfall? |
B.To take advantage of the water resources. |
C.To receive the public’s favourable response. |
D.To warn people against bad weather conditions. |
A.People’s unawareness. | B.Climate change. |
C.Frequent weather events. | D.Rising dire levels. |
A.To remind people of the terrible disaster. |
B.To stress the importance of preparedness. |
C.To make a comparison between disasters. |
D.To expose people’s lack of imagination. |
A.How to change the existing climate. |
B.How to research extreme weather. |
C.How to make accurate predictions. |
D.How to get prepared for disasters. |
It can be hard for one person to protect the environment by himself. If you teenagers want to do something, like stopping pollution or protecting wildlife, you can gather likeminded people in an environmental club.
Choose a cause. Some good ideas might be something like, “Save the whales!” But nothing says you can’t do more than one cause.
Find a clubhouse. Now that you have your club, you must find a place where all the members can get together to discuss your projects.
Decide on jobs. You can work as an activity organizer, a project manager or the president who decides all the meeting times, new members, meeting places, activities and projects. Each person can have a different job.
A.Name your club. |
B.Great minds think alike. |
C.After all, saving the world is a big job. |
D.Choose members to hold all the meetings. |
E.Your club could do a different cause every month. |
F.It could be in the woods, in the park or in the classroom. |
G.But encourage all members to support each other’s work. |

There have been so many acts of kindness that have touched me deeply. But the one that stands out the most was the one that happened, of all places, at the blacksmith shop at Old Sturbridge Village in Sturbridge, Massachusetts.
I had visited the village that day with my two children and my mother, who came along to enjoy this living museum, but also to assist me. While my daughter, age eleven, did not need the additional care, my son, at age seven, most certainly did.
When my son was a baby, it was very clear to me that there was something different about him. After countless trips to different specialists and the completion of diverse testing, a diagnosis of a particular chromosoral (染色体的) disorder was made, whose symptoms were also consistent with autism (自闭症). My son was constantly in motion and had no sense of danger, requiring that his caregivers watch his every move to prevent him from running away or heading into traffic. He also loved strangers, thinking that everyone was his potential best friend. He greeted everyone with hug.
The fact that he looked much older than his actual age, and he acted much younger, made it even harder for strangers to accept him. Although my son was still too young to recognize when he Was being rejected, every harsh word, refusal, or look of pity broke my heart. I had started to avoid taking him out in public.
That day, at the village, I had walked around taking my son’s hand, ready to protect him from being hurt by anyone. For some reason, my son had insisted on visiting the blacksmith (铁匠) building. He chatted about the shop for the entire day, constantly asking if it was time yet to visit the blacksmith. Knowing that refusal in any form at that place would cause my son to experience a great disappointment, I saved that building for the end of the day.
