England is the largest and most populous division of the island of Great Britain, making up the south and east. Wales is on the west and Scotland is to the north. Northern Ireland is located in the northeast corner of Ireland, the second largest island in the British Isles. The capital of the United Kingdom is the city of London, situated near the southeastern tip of England.2E n g l a n dEngland is a political division of the island of Great Britain and the principal division of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. It occupies all of the island east of Wales and south of Scotland, other divisions of the island of Great Britain.3L o n d o nLondon is the capital of the United Kingdom.

Apple was in the top three with six of the personality types, and Disney was in the top three for five, including idealists, who ranked it No. 1 ahead of Google.

Now work in pairs and take turns to give a short speech on the topic “You can find your dream job via the Internet.” Cite some of the stories of the job seekers that yo u have just read in Passage A.Have you ever considered finding a job on the Internet? Today, with computers in common use, the Internet has become an important tool for people to find various kinds of information. Many people log on to the Internet to seek job opportunities and some of them have found very desirable jobs. Take Theresa Smith’s story for example. Less than a month from her graduation day, she visited an Internet site and typed some key words. Immediately she found 45 jobs meeting her criteria. Four weeks later she was hired at a starting salary of $32 000. Look at another story, that of Madeline Gragg, a 28 year-old high school teacher from America. She wanted a change. So when a friend mentioned teaching English in Japan, the American teacher felt interested. She visited the popular Yahoo! website. A week later she received a call and set up an interview with a recruiter in Chicago and got the job. You see, to find the right job, you can just visit some Internet sites, type a few key words, and follow the procedure for the online application. With a click of the mouse, you are very likely to find your dream job. So why not give it a try?10 Write a paragraph of around 80 words about what you should do to track down information on job openings. Include the following key words and phrases in your writing. You may begin your paragraph with “There are several things you cannot ignore when tracking down information on job openings.”There are several things you cannot ignore when tracking down information on job openings. First, you should consult your friends, relatives, or neighbors, who may offer information unavailable elsewhere. Second, you should read the classified section in the newspapers often. Next, remember to register with two or three recruitment agencies. Finally, don’t forget to make use of the Internet. In today’s society the Internet is a quick and cost-effective method for employers to announce their employment needs. Therefore, if you log on to the Internet, you just might find your dream job.Passage BThink About It1 Open2 Open3 OpenRead About ItContent AwarenessRead And Think11 Work with your partner and answer the following questions.1 The author compares college graduates’ job hunting to finding a match when dating.2 They are careerists, entrepreneurs, explorers, harmonizers, hunters, idealists and leaders.3 Google took the top spot in popularity in each of the past four years.4 They are government and non-profit employers such as CIA and FBI.5 They are government and non-profit employers such as CIA and FBI. 12 Choose the best answer to each question with the information from the passage.1 D2 C3 B4 C 5A13 Fill in the blanks with the words given below.

Culture Notes 1. Difference between Job and Career Many people believe that choosing a job and choosing a career are the same; however they‟re different. Each job is a tool to provide income to reach financial goals. On the other hand, a career is a vocation in which talents and skills are expressed throughout a lifetime. Having a job rarely involves any planning. But a career always requires careful career planning and preparation. A job becomes less satisfying over time especially if your true gifts and abilities are not utilized. A career allows you to cultivate and focus your passion and interests. Born on March 3, 1847, in Edinburgh, Scotland, Alexander Graham Bell was the son and grandson of authorities in elocution and the correction of speech. Educated to pursue a career in the same specialty, his knowledge of the nature of sound led him not only to teach the deaf, but also to invent the telephone. In 1876, at the age of 29, Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone. Bell might easily have been content with the success of his invention. His many laboratory notebooks demonstrate, however, that he was driven by a genuine and rare intellectual curiosity that kept him regularly searching, striving, and wanting always to learn and to create. Most people choose jobs and work environments that fit lifestyle choices.

Today, with computers in common use, the Internet has become an important tool for people to find various kinds of information. Many people log on to the Internet to seek job opportunities and some of them have found very desirable jobs. Take Theresa Smith’s story for example. Less than a month from her graduation day, she visited an Internet site and typed some key words. Immediately she found 45 jobs meeting her criteria. Four weeks later she was hired at a starting salary of $32 000. Look at another story, that of Madeline Gragg, a 28 year-old high school teacher from America. She wanted a change. So when a friend mentioned teaching English in Japan, the American teacher felt interested. She visited the popular Yahoo! website. A week later she received a call and set up an interview with a recruiter in Chicago and got the job. You see, to find the right job, you can just visit some Internet sites, type a few key words, and follow the procedure for the online application. With a click of the mouse, you are very likely to find your dream job. So why not give it a try?10 Write a paragraph of around 80 words about what you should do to track down information on job openings. Include the following key words and phrases in your writing.
