according to a survey out today from employee recognition provider i Love Rewards and career-services network Experience.Slightly more than 7% plan to use Facebook, up from 5%.
No longer do students just wait for visiting campus recruiters to learn about job possibilities. Instead
they"re using digital tools to find their dream jobs, says I Love Rewards CEO Razor Suleman.Companies
need to know their online image, then update anything that is outdated, inaccurate or not inleractive (互动的).
"The recruited have now become the recruiters," Suleman says."They are now going out and finding the
companies they want to apply for."
Students learn about employers by viewing their websites, reading Facehook and Twitter updates and
perusing ( 精读) Linkedln profiles.Another information source: Comments by past and current employees on job-oriented websites.
A strong digital presence is one way for employers to stand out as the search for the best and brightest
gets competitive.
Slightly more than four in 10 employers say they will use "different" recruiting tactics (策略) to reach
Generation Y, according to a survey by job-search site Monster.com to be released today.Of those
respondents, almost 60% say social-networking sites are popular tools to reach Gen Y candidates.
"Our reason for using social media is because that"s where we think the candidates are," he says.
The company posts updates and videos on topics such as job opportunities and the benefits of being
an employee.It also created a mobile-friendly site for those who want to apply via smart phone.
"Younger people want to attach to you in a different way than the past," Lavery says."They want to
interact with you.They want to learn about you."
The updated recruitment techniques take effort, but they work, he says.
In 2010, UPS used those tactics to recruit 955 employees.The year before, it hired 29 employees
through those means.
"It"s a time investment(投资)that you have to be willing to do," he says."You can"t just have a page up
there and not have content.In social media, you have to have a give and a take, or people won"t be a part of your community."
B. magazines
C. the Internet
D. radios
B. Because graduates tend to learn about employers through social media.
C. Because companies want to post advertisements for their products.
D. Because companies like to post videos and updates about their products.
B. attract

The day that a robot wakes you up,cleans your room and walks your dog might still be a few decades
off. But increasingly,engineers are saying that robots are going to make the leap from the factory floor to
your family room.
Companies like Sony and General Electric are working on designs for small robots. Products like the
Roomba,a robot that can clean floors,are flying off the shelves. On the cover of a recent issue of
Scienti fic American Magazine,Bill Gates predicted the "Dawn of the Age of Robots".
What"s behind this new era ( 时代)? It"s partly a matter of technology. Devices that can recognize and
respond to a human voice have been developed. There are now a few different ways for robots to move
around. They can walk, crawl or ride on wheels. They are being made smaller and smaller. They are also
becoming more and more energy efficient.
A bigger part of the story is on the demand side. From the day Robert Adler invented the television
remote control in the 1950s, people around the world have tirelessly searched for ways to get lazier.
Also take into consideration the increasing wealth of
rich people,the time appears ripe to introduce robots to
ease our daily life.
To be sure,robots that walk on two legs and talk like people are still too complex for our present
engineering abilities. Today"s robot revolution is to make them for everyday use. Robots will do
basic- housework such as cleaning or gardening,or just help you have more fun on the basketball court.
What makes a robot different from an ordinary cleaning machine is not the presence of computer chips( 芯片). Nowadays even your microwave has a computer chip. It is the ability to sense and make changes
to the environment in real time.
For example,a floor-cleaning robot should be able to sense your scared cat and move out of the way.
Today"s computing ability is, for the first time, able to make machines that could "think" at least in certain
limited
ways.
| Robot Revolution | |
| What today"s robot can do | talk like people |
| * recognize and 1.________ to your voice | * sense and make some changes to the 6._______ |

| What makes a person a scientist? Does he have ways or tools of learning that are different from those of others? The answer is"no". It isn"t the tools a scientist uses but how he uses these tools that makes him a scientist. You will probably agree that knowing how to use a power is important to a carpenter(木匠). You will probably agree,too,that knowing how to investigate(调查) ,how to discover information,is important to everyone. The scientist,however,goes one step further;he must be sure that he has a reasonable answer to his questions and that his answer he gets to many questions is into a large set of ideas about how the world works. The scientist"s knowledge must be exact. There"s no room for half right or right just half the time. He must be as nearly right as the conditions permit. What works under one set of conditions at one time must work under the same conditions at other times. If the conditions are different,any changes the scientist observes in a demonstration(实证) must be explained by the changes in the conditions. This is one reason why investigations are important in science. Albert Einstein,who developed the Theory of Relativity, amved at this theory through mathematics. The accuracy (正确性) of his mathematics was later tested through investigation. Einstein"s ideas were proved to be correct. A scientist uses many tools for measurements. Then the measurements are used to make mathematical calculations (计算) that may test his investigations. | |
| 1. What makes a scientist according to the passage? | |
| A. The tools he uses. B. His ways of learning. C. The way he uses his tools. D. The various tools he uses. | |
| 2."…knowing how to investigate,how to discover information,is important to everyone. "The writer says this toshow | |
| A. the importance of information B. the difference between scientists and ordinary people C. the importance of thinking D. the difference between carpenters and ordinary people | |
| 3. A sound scientific.theory should be one that _________. | |
| A. works under one set of conditions at one time and also works under the same conditions at other times B. doesn"t allow any change even under different conditions C. can only work under one condition D. can be used for many purposes | |
| 4. What is the main idea of the passage? | |
| A. Scientists are different from ordinary people. B. The Theory of Relativity. C. Exactness is the core(核心) of science. D. Exactness and way of using tools are the keys to making of a scientist. | |

| What will life in the future be like?Will it be much better than it is now? And what will we be able to do 10,20 or 30 years later? Let"s just close our eyes and think ! Genetic Engineering Cenetic engineering will help us create the perfect human. Babies will grow up to do slam dunks like Yao Ming or look like Cecilia Cheung. Also,we will be able to mix( 杂交) plants and animals ! But do you want your dog to be a tree? The Dead In the future,we will be able to bring the dead back to life. Then each family can meet and talk with its dead family members. It will be like living with ghosts. On television people will see Albert Einstein, Marilyn Monroe, Confucius, Elvis Presley, and Shakespeare talking with each other! Long-Iiving People Over the next 20 t0 50 years,it will become harder to tell the difference between human and machine. All body parts will be replaceable.We will then be able to make fake (假的) people. We will make a copy of ourselves,so we will appear to be alive long after we are dead. A few decades later,people will find ways to transfer (转移) their spirit (精神 ) to the new body. Nanobots We will be able to build nanobots (纳米机器人) to travel through our body. Also,nanobots will be used when we are sick. For example,when we have a stomachache,we will swallow a very small robot and it will travel through our stomach,taking video of what"s happening there. Then we can show the video to help the doctor diagnose (诊断) our problem. Computers Computers help us remember,calculate,and enjoy ourselves. In the future,computers will be able to show their feelings. They will be able to think better than the human mind. After television became popular,many people soon became couch potatoes. It is not surprising that many people have become overweight; and things will get worse in the future ! We will be more and more interested in computers and the Internet,spending more and more time in front of computers and forget what our real needs are. Many of us will become super couch potatoes and weight 250kg! | |

| "It hurts me more than you. "and " This is for your own good. "-these are the statements my mother used to make years ago when I had to learn Latin,clean my room,stay home and do homework. That was before we entered the permissive period in education in which we decided it was all right not to push our children to achieve their best in school. The schools and the educators made it easy for us. They thought that it was all right to be parents who took a let-alone policy. We stopped making our children do homework. We gave them calculators,tumed on the television,left the teaching to the teachers and went on vacation. Now teachers, faced with children who have been developing at their own pace for the past 15 years, are realizing we"ve made a terrible mistake. One such teacher is Sharon Klompus who says of her students-" so passive"-and wonders what has happened. Nothing is demanded of them. She believes. Television, says Klompus, contributes to children"s passivity (被动性) . "We"re talking about a generation of kids who"ve never been hurt or hungry. They have learned somebody will always do it for them. Instead of saying "go and look it up" ,you tell them the answer. It takes greater energy to say no to a kid. " Yes,it does. It takes energy and it takes work. It"s time for parents to end their vacation and come back to work. It"s time to take the car away,to tum the TV off,to tell them it hurts you more than them but it"s for their own good. It"s time to start telling them no again. | |

| There are more than forty universities in Britain-nearly twice as many as in 1960s. During the 1960s eight completely new ones mere founded,and ten other new ones were created 1 converting old colleges of technology into universities. In the same period the 2 of students more than doubled,from 70,000 to 3 than 200,000. By 1973 about 10% of men aged from eighteen 4 twenty-one were in universities and about 5% of women. All the universities are private institutions. Each has its 5 goveming councils, 6 some local businessmen and local politicians as 7 as a few academics (大学教师). The state began to give grants to them fifty years 8 , and by 1970 each university derived nearly all its 9 from state grants. Students have t0 10 fees and living costs,but every student may receive from the local authority of the place 11 he lives a personal grant which is enough to pay his full costs,including lodging and 12 unless his parents are 13 . Most 14 take jobs in the summer 15 about six weeks,but they do not normally do outside 16 during the academic year. The Department of Education takes 17 for the payments which cover the whole expenditure(费用) of the 18 , but it does not exercise direct control. It can have an important influence 19 new developments through its power to distribute funds,but it takes the advice of the University Grants Committee,a body which is mainly 20 of academics. | |
