25、 when one becomes rich, he wants people to know it. And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what “keeping up with the Joneses” is about. It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbors.The expression was first used in 1913 by a you
26、ng American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself. He began earning $ 125 a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighborhood outside New York City. When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand wen
27、t horseback riding every day. When he saw that rich people had servants, Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbors.It was like a race, but one could never finish his race because one was always trying to keep up. The race ended for Momand and his wife when
28、 they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They moved back to an apartment in New York City.Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich lifestyle of their neighbors. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories. He
29、 called it “Keeping up with the Joneses” because “Jones” is a very common name in the United States. “Keeping up with the Joneses” came to mean keeping up with rich lifestyle of the people around you. Momands series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years.People never s
30、eem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. And there are “Joneses” in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses because no matter what one does, Mr. Jones always seems to be ahead.61. Some people want to keep up with the Joneses because they _.A. wan
31、t to be as rich as their neighbors B. want others to know or to think that they are richC. dont want others to know they are rich D. want to be happy662. It can be inferred from the story that rich people like to _.A. live outside New York City B. live in New York cityC. live in apartments D. have m
32、any neighbors63. Arthur Momand used the name “Jones” in his series of short stories because “Jones” is _.A. an important name B. a popular name in the United StatesC. his neighbors name D. not a good nameBHave you ever picked a job based on the fact that you were good at it but later found it made y
33、ou feel very uncomfortable over time? When you select your career, theres a whole lot more to it than assessing your skills and matching them with a particular position. If you ignore your personality, it will hurt you long-term regardless of your skills or the jobs pay. There are several areas of y
34、our personality that you need to consider to help you find a good job. Here are a few of those main areas;1) Do you prefer working alone or with other people?There are isolating（使孤立）jobs that will drive an outgoing person crazy and also interactive jobs that will make a shy person uneasy. Most peopl
35、e are not extremes in either direction but do have a tendency that they prefer. There are also positions that are sometimes a combination of the two, which may be best for someone in the middle who adapts easily to either situation.2) How do you handle change?Most jobs these days have some elements
36、of change to them, but some are more than others. If you need stability in your life, you may need a job where the changes dont happen so often. Other people would be bored of the same daily routine.3) Do you enjoy working with computers？I do see this as a kind of personality characteristic. There a
37、re people who are happy to spend more than 40 hours a week on a computer, while there are others who need a lot of human interaction throughout the day. Again, these are extremes and youll likely find a lot of positions somewhere in the middle as well.4) What type of work environment do you enjoy？Th
38、is can range from being in a large building with a lot of people you wont know immediately to a smaller setting where youll get to know almost all the people there fairly quickly.5) How do you like to get paid?Some people are motivated by the pay they get, while others feel too stressed to be like t
39、hat. The variety of payment designs in the sales industry is a typical example for this.Anyway, these are a great starting point for you. Ive seen it over and over again with people that they make more money over time when they do something they love. It may take you a little longer, but making a mo
40、ve to do what you have a passion for can change the course of your life for the better.764. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Isolating jobs usually drive people mad.B. Interactive jobs make people shy easily. C. Extreme people tend to work with others.D. Almost everyone has
41、 a tendency in jobs.65. What does the underlined sentence in paragraph one mean?A. Before you select your job, you should assess your skills and match them with your positionB. There are more important things than assessing skills and match them with the position when you select job.C. Nothing is im
42、portant than assessing skills and match them with the position when you select job. D You should ignore your skills when you select job.66. What is the missing word about a job search in the following chart?A. Design. B. Changes. C. Cooperation. D. Hobbies.67. What is the best title for this passage
43、?A. Lifestyles and Job Pay B. Jobs and EnvironmentC. Job Skills and Abilities D. Personalities and Jobs . CIf there is one thing Im quite sure about, it is that in a hundred years from now we still be reading newspapers. Not those newspapers are a necessity. Even now some people get most of the news
44、 from the television or have the radio switched on in the background or in the car. Many buy a paper only on Saturday or Sunday. But for most people a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation to generation.The basic British character wont change, and one of the characteristics of the
45、 British is that we dont much like talking to each other when we get up. So what better way is there to keep yourself thinking in the morning than to wrap yourself in a newspaper?8Over the past couple of centuries, human beings have developed a close relationship with the newspaper. It has become as
46、 natural as breathing or enjoying the sun. And it is not just the British who love newspapers. On suburban trains in Calcutta, for instance, just one person in the whole car will buy a newspaper and read aloud the best bits to his fellow passengers, much to everybodys enjoyment.The nature of what is
47、 news may change. What essentially (本质上) makes news is what affects our lives and the big political stories, the coverage of the wars, earthquakes and other disasters, will continue much the same. I think there will be more coverage of scientific research, though. Its already happening in areas that may directly affect our lives, like genetic engineering. In the future I think there will be more coverage of scientific explanations of why we feel as we do, whether its love or depression. We develop a better understanding of ho
