with thousands of other hopeful students. Sometimes you get the interview, but don"t quite seem to land
the job because you don"t have related experience. Don"t despair! Here are a few tips that might give
you an edge.
Get connected to your network and try to expand it. Talk to friends, family and acquaintances. Let
everyone know you are looking for a job.
Prepare your resume (个人简历) carefully and be sure it"s perfect. Have someone else read it over
for typos (打字错误) and grammatical errors. Get professional help. It"s worth the money to present
yourself well. If money is tight, read books on resume writing from your public library or search for free
help on the Internet.
When you apply for a job, be sure you match and list any skills listed on the posting with the skills
you have. If you get an interview, be sure to describe those skills thoroughly. Just having the skills is not
enough. Expressing your abilities well can make all the difference in getting the job.
Research typical interview questions and practice interviewing. Be well prepared for every interview.
Don"t be afraid to accept a position for which you are overqualified-if there"s room for advancements. Many great job advancements come from first doing well at an entrylevel position. If you have the right
skills and attitude, it won"t be long before you"re in the job you want.
Volunteer for a few weeks in your field of study to gain experience if you feel your resume needs an
improvement.
When deciding what to wear for an interview, think about the position level and the dress code of the
organization.
Use every tool available to you. For example, this site has many job links for your use.
Good luck!

of relationships. Many adults believe that somehow boys need friends less than girls do, in truth, though,
no boy is an island; boys value their friends throughout childhood and adolescence and are happier and
healthier when they have solid relationships with peers(同龄人).
Despite the common belief that girls are better at relationships, most boys consider their friends a very
important part of their lives, and boys may actually be better at keeping friendships than girls are. A
recent study of 10 to 15yearold boys and girls found that girls" friendships are actually more fragile. Girls
tend to say and do hurtful things to each other more frequently than boys, and girls are more hurt by the
end of a friendship.
Boys are the living definition of the phrase "peer group"； they love games with rules, competition,
and doing things together. Boys seem to enjoy, even need the opportunity to test themselves against
others, and many lasting friendships begin in karate(空手道) class or on the basketball court.
Competence and skill are widely respected; being picked last for a team or left out altogether is an
experience that can haunt(萦绕心头) a boy for years.
As boys mature, the friendship becomes even more important, and it frequently widens to include
girls. During the teen years, friends can become the most important part of a boy"s life-and a part in
which his parents are not included. The confusion of being a teenager leads boys to form close bonds
with friends. There is the sense for many boys that a friend is someone who is "always there for me",
someone he can trust. They may be partners in crime or partners in study, but the friendship of
adolescent boys can run surprisingly deep.

million. Today it is estimated that some 260 million people speak it as a native language, mainly in the
United States, Canada, Great Britain, Ireland, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand. In addition to
the standard varieties of English found in these areas, there are a great many regional and social varieties
of the language as well as various levels of usage that are employed both in its spoken and written forms.
In fact, it is impossible to estimate the number of people in the world who have acquired an adequate(足
够的) working knowledge of English in addition to their own languages. The purpose for English learning
and the situations in which such learning takes place are so varied that it is difficult to explain and still more difficult to judge what forms an adequate working knowledge for each situation.
The main reason for the widespread demand for English is its presentday importance as a world
language. Besides serving the indefinite needs of its native speakers, English is a language in which some
of important works in science, technology, and other fields are being produced, and not always by native
speakers. It is widely used for such purposes as meteorological and airport communications, internationa
l conferences, and the spread of information over the radio and television networks of many nations. It is
a language of wider communication for a number of developing countries, especially former British
colonies. Many of these countries have multilingual populations and need a language for internal
communication in such matters as government, commerce, industry, law and education as well as for
international communication and for entrance to the scientific and technological developments in the West.

People who enjoy a dreamfilled sleep are better at recalling information and making links between
facts when waking. But recharging with a shallow (小睡) offers no such mental improvement, the
research suggests. The results of the study added to the growing body of evidence that Rapid Eye
Movement (REM) sleep is very important to the brain"s ability to form strong memories.
An average night"s rest includes four or five spells of REM sleep, but these bursts tend to be lengthier
towards the end of the night. This means adults getting less than the recommended seven to eight hours
a night - and therefore inadequate REM sleep - may be damaging their mind"s ability to memorize:
Although REM sleep is not classified as a type of deep sleep, it is only reached after the brain has passed
through deep sleep stages.
In the recent study, participants were shown groups of three words and asked to find another word
that can be associated with all three words. They were tested once in the morning and then given the
same task again in the afternoon. In between, some were allowed a nap with REM sleep, some a nap
without REM sleep, while the others had a quiet rest period. The quiet rest and nonREM sleep groups
didn"t improve, but the REM sleep group improved on their morning performance by an average of
almost 40 per cent. Dr Sara Mednick, a sleep researcher at the University of California who led the
study, believes the formation of connections between previous unassociated information in the brain
occurs during REM sleep.
It is believed that sleep acts as a sort of mental filing system, enabling the brain to sort relevant
information from useless information. This process may take place as memories are removed from one
part of the brain to others.
