资料：Changing careers is becoming more popular. Not just because there are more career options available, but also out of necessity. As new industries arise, others die. It's up to you to figure out if your career is still going to be around in the next 5-10 years. Some studies say we could have as many as nine careers in our professional lifetime. Which begs the question: do you know what it takes to successfully change career lanes repeatedly?
Switching careers is like changing highway lanes: you must signal!
If you want to move in a new career direction, you need to signal to the professional world you intend to make a change. You need to do it with purpose and specificity. It must look well-thought out and intentional. Otherwise, people will A） not know you are looking to make the change, and B）assume you are doing it because you failed in your current career in some way.
1. Give the logic and passion behind your career change.
When signaling to your network you want to switch careers you must explain why both your head and heart are ready to change. Perhaps there are financial or geographic reasons （i.e., you need to relocate or make more money）. But, you must also convey the excitement and sincere desire you have for this new career （i.e., you want to make a difference or work on a particular type of problem that needs to be solved）.
2. Build a marketing campaign for your business-of-one.
Most employers prefer to hire people with previous experience. Thus, you're going to need a way to convey to them your transferable skills from your former career path will be equally valuable. The best way to do this is to create a targeted list of employers you want to work for and then strategically network with their employees. The more conversations and connections you can have within your new career path, the easier it will be to convince someone to hire you in spite of your lack of experience.
To sum it up … Once you commit to a career change, the secret to success is to make sure everyone knows about it. Otherwise, you will struggle to change career lanes efficiently and effectively.
Which of the following could NOT be a logical reason for career change?

Passage Three
Whenyou stretch out in the sun you can do one of the three things:you can use no suntan oil,an ordinary sun tan oil;or Bergasol.
If you don′t use any sun tan oil when you′re in the sun,you will burn surprisinglyquickly.If you use an ordinary sun tan oil,you will protectyour skin to a lesser or greater degree.How much protection depends on the"protection-factor number"on the bottle.Some oils block out so manyof the sun′s rays and you can stay in the sun all day without burning but youwon′t go very brown,either.
Bergasol will protect your skin like an ordinary sun tan oil.It also has a tan acceleratorthat speeds up the rate at which the sun activates the skin cells that producemelanin(黑色素).It is melanin that gives the skin itsbrown colour.Bergasol enables you to go brown faster,am as the days pass thedifference will become more obvious.Unfortunately,this special formulation isn′tCheap to prepare.So Bergasol is rather more expensive than ordinary sun tanoil.However,the price looks more attractive as you do.
Bergasoi?It makes you go brown faster
Protection Many people imagine that"cover-up"means you don′t get a tan.Nothing to show for yourholiday.
Not so.With"cover-up",you can get brown if you want to.The point of"cover-up"is to protect your skin from the harmful rays of the sunwhich,according to the experts,make your skinlook older.
That′s what Solex Cover-up is allabout--protection for your skin.It has a Sun Protection Factor 8,which makesit suitable for anyone.Find out how it works for you by consulting the SolexSun Chart.On sale wherever Solex is.With Solex Cover-up,you can tan asslowly as you like.As gently as you like.And with much less
chance of peeling.Your tan will lookbetter.Your skin will stay young longer.
Solex Gentle tan..,full protection
Compared with Solex,Bergasol__A.helps one go brown more quickly
B.better protects one's skin
C.is more competitive in price
D.is a better sun tan oil

Five Ways to Win Over Everyone in the Office Is it possible to like everyone in your office?Think about how tough it is to get together 15 people,much less 50,who all get along perfectly.But unlike in friendships,you need coworkers.You work with them every day and you depend on them just as they depend on you.Here are some ways that you can get the whole office on your side 41.____If you have a bone to pick with someone in your workplace,you may try stay tight-lipped around them.But you won't be helping either one of you.A Harvard Business School study found that observers consistently rated those who were frank about themselves more highly,while those who hid lost trustworthiness.The lesson is not that you should make your personal life an open book,but rather,when given the option to offer up details about yourself or painstakingly conceal them,you should just be honest.42._____Just as important as being honest about yourself is being receptive to others.We often feel the need to tell others how we feel,whether it's a concern about a project,a stray thought,or a compliment.Those are all valid,but you need to take time to hear out your coworkers,too.In fact,rushing to get your own ideas out there can cause colleagues to feel you don't value their opinions.Do your best to engage coworkers in a genuine,back-and-forth conversation,rather than prioritizing your own thoughts.43._____It's common to have a“cubicle mate"or special confidant in a work setting.But in addition to those trusted coworkers,you should expand your horizons and find out about all the people around you.Use your lunch and coffee breaks to meet up with colleagues you don't always see.Find out about their lives and interests beyond the job.It requires minimal effort and goes a long way.This will help to gTow your internal network,in addition to being a nice break in the work day.44._____Positive feedback is important for anyone to hear.And you don't have to be someone's boss to tell them they did an exceptional job on a particular project.This will help engender good will in others.But don't overdo it or be fake about it.One study found that people responded best to comments that shifted from negative to positive,possibly because it suggested they had won somebody over.45.______This one may be a bit more difficult to pull off,but it can go a long way to achieving results.Remember in dealing with any coworker what they appreciate from an interaction.Watch out for how they verbalize with others.Some people like small talk in a meeting before digging into important matters,while other are more straightforward.Jokes that work one person won't necessarily land with another,So,adapt your style accordingly to type.Consider the person that you re dealing with in advance and what will get you to your desired outcome.44选？A.Give compliments,just not too many.B.Put on a good face,always.C.Tailor your interactions.D.Spend time with everyone.E.Reveal,don't hide,information.
F.Slow down and listen.
G.Put yourselves in others'shoes.

Text 3 Even in traditional offices,“the lingua franca of corporate America has gotten much more emotional and much more right-brained than it was 20 years ago,”said Harvard Business School professor Nancy Koehn.She started spinning off examples.“If you and I parachuted back to Fortune 500 companies in 1990,we would see much less frequent use of terms like journey,mission,passion.There were goals,there were strategies,there were objectives,but we didn’t talk about energy;we didn’t talk about passion.”Koehn pointed out that this new era of corporate vocabulary is very“team”-oriented—and not by coincidence.“Let’s not forget sports—in male-dominated corporate America,it’s still a big deal.It’s not explicitly conscious;it’s the idea that I’m a coach,and you’re my team,and we’re in this together.There are lots and lots of CEOs in very different companies,but most think of themselves as coaches and this is their team and they want to win.”These terms are also intended to infuse work with meaning—and,as Khurana,another professor,points out,increase allegiance to the firm.“You have the importation of terminology that historically used to be associated with non-profit organizations and religious organizations:terms likevision,values,passion,and purpose,”said Khurana.This new focus on personal fulfillment can help keep employees motivated amid increasingly loud debates over work-life balance.The“mommy wars”of the 1990s are still going on today,prompting arguments about why women still can’t have it all and books like Sheryl Sandberg’s Lean In,whose title has become a buzzword in its own right.Terms like unplug,offline,life-hack,bandwidth,and capacity are all about setting boundaries between the office and the home.But if your work is your“passion,”you’ll be more likely to devote yourself to it,even if that means going home for dinner and then working long after the kids are in bed.But this seems to be the irony of office speak:Everyone makes fun of it,but managers love it,companies depend on it,and regular people willingly absorb it.As linguist once said,“You can get people to think it’s nonsense at the same time that you buy into it.”In a workplace that’s fundamentally indifferent to your life and its meaning,office speak can help you figure out how you relate to your work—and how your work defines who you are.

Perhaps there are financial or geographic reasons （i.e., you need to relocate or make more money）. But, you must also convey the excitement and sincere desire you have for this new career （i.e., you want to make a difference or work on a particular type of problem that needs to be solved）.
2. Build a marketing campaign for your business-of-one.
Most employers prefer to hire people with previous experience. Thus, you're going to need a way to convey to them your transferable skills from your former career path will be equally valuable. The best way to do this is to create a targeted list of employers you want to work for and then strategically network with their employees. The more conversations and connections you can have within your new career path, the easier it will be to convince someone to hire you in spite of your lack of experience.
To sum it up … Once you commit to a career change, the secret to success is to make sure everyone knows about it. Otherwise, you will struggle to change career lanes efficiently and effectively.

资料：No matter how carefully you pick the members on your team,you may still end up with a negative employee.These workers don’t necessarily fall into the category of “toxic,”but they’re just kind of a drag with their cynical, pessimistic worldview.If you ‘re dealing with a negative employee,here are 3 steps to take.
FIND OUT WHY
If you decide to proceed in addressing the behavior,think about whether there have been behavior changes recently.Is the negativity a constant or has the behavior escalated?If the latter ,was there an event that led up to the change?Individuals in the workplace live multi-dimensional lives,and other non-workplace stresses may impact work productivity and mood.
In an April 2016 report in the Journal of Managerial Psychology,a team of Toronto researchers found that employee who are cynical of their workplace may feel more positive if their managers are supportive.
DISCUSS GOALS
When discussing the situation with your negative employee,it is recommended to frame the discussion in the context of the Individual’s goals.”Tone policing” where you simply point out pessimistic commentary without addressing the root cause, rarely works and may just cause more resentment.Get to the root of the issue and find out if the employee needs additional training,perhaps in management or communication skills,to overcome a deficit.
ADDRESS ISSUES
A direct,solutions-oriented conversation with the employee can uncover problems or circumstances driving the behavior.If there are workplace issue that can be solved,consider doing so if it make sense.If there are personal issues that have caused an escalation in negative behavior,examine whether accommodations can be made to help the person while they’re going through such challenges.Some employees don’t have great interpersonal skills,and putting them in jobs where they are more focused on job-related tasks than on interactions with others can be an effective solution,too.
It can be inferred from the article thatA.If your manager is supportive ,you might feel more positive
B.Negative employees are devastating to the company
C.Raising salaries will make employees feel positive
D.Promotions means a great deal to the employees

Boredom at Work
① You might find yourself staring at the clock, willing it to move faster so the boring workday will finally end. If your job offers little in the way of stimulation, there are steps you can take inside and outside the workplace.
② If you're bored with your job, it could be a sign that you've mastered the basic requirements and are ready for more of a challenge. You might not have been in your position long enough to request a promotion. Still, you can take steps to enhance your current role. Ask your boss if there are any projects you can help with. Volunteer to train less experienced colleagues. You'll feel more stimulated at work and also increase your chances of future advancement.
③ If you feel there is nothing left to learn in your present position, take steps to increase your knowledge. Your company's website might have online courses you can take during your slow periods, with your manager's permission. Enroll in training classes your company offers in areas that interest you. You also can pursue educational opportunities outside of the workplace, such as college classes, industry-specific training programs or self-improvement courses. If the knowledge you acquire doesn't help you in your present position, it might eventually help you move into a more fulfilling position.
④ Look for ways to challenge yourself. If your job involves performing repetitive tasks, set a quota for the number of times you can accomplish a particular task during the course of a shift. This will give you something to shoot for. If you have co-workers who perform the same tasks, make a friendly wager to see who can do the most. You'll form stronger bonds with your colleagues, and your employer is likely to notice your increased productivity.
⑤ According to psychotherapist and career coach Nina Ham, boredom at work might be a symptom of dissatisfaction with your personal life. Finding sources of stimulation outside of work can have a positive impact on your attitude toward your job. Seeking counseling for an emotional issue can also be of benefit. If your personal life is going well and nothing you try seems to improve your engagement level at work, it might be time to consider a job or even a career change.
With your manager′s permission, you can take your company′s online courses during（）A、strong desire for friendly relationshipsB、your slow periodsC、dissatisfaction with your personal lifeD、the basic requirementsE、performing repetitive tasksF、inside and outside the workplace

单选题Camping
Camping wild is a wonderful way to experience the natural world and， at its best， it makes little environmental influence. But with increasing numbers of people wanting to escape into the wilderness， it is becoming more and more important to camp unobtrusively （不引人注目地） and leave no mark.
Wild camping is not permitted in many places， particularly in crowded lowland Britain. Wherever you are， find out about organizations responsible for managing wild spaces， and contact them to find out their policy on camping and shelter building. For example， it is fine to camp wild in remote parts of Scotland， but in England you must ask the landowner's permission， except in national parks.
Camping is about having relaxation， sleeping outdoors， experiencing bad weather， and making do without modern conveniences. A busy， fully-equipped campsite （野营地） seems to go against this， so seek out smaller， more remote places with easy access to open spaces and perhaps beaches. Better still， find a campsite with no road access： walking in makes a real adventure.
Finding the right spot to camp is the first step to guaranteeing a good night's sleep. Choose a campsite with privacy and minimum influence on others and the environment. Try to use an area where people have obviously camped before rather than creating a new spot. When camping in woodland， a void standing dead trees， which may fall on a windy night. Avoid animal runs and caves， and possible homes of biting insects. Make sure you have most protection on the windward side. If you make a fire， do so downwind of your shelter， always consider what influence you might have on the natural world. Avoid damaging plants. A good campsite is found， not made — changing it should be unnecessary.
