I wrote the poem out in my finest handwriting, drew a fancy border around it and __5__ I placed it right on my father's plate on the dining table. My father had begun his motion－picture career as a writer. I was sure he would be able to __6__ my poem.At almost 7 o'clock my father burst in. He seemed  __7__. He circled the dining－room table, complaining about his employees.Suddenly he paused and glared at his plate. “What is this？” He was reaching for my poem.“Ben, Buddy has written his first poem！” my mother began. “And it's beautiful, absolutely amazing...”“If you don't mind, I'd like to decide for myself.” Father said.I __8__ my head as he read that poem.

After all, if your CV doesn't pass muster (通过检查), you won't have the chance to let potential employers know why you're the right person for the job. Here are some details you should remove from your resume： Middle and high school informationIf you've gone through college, you usually don't need to add your high school information. Middle school references are also best taken out. Passive languageDon't make weak references to your achievements. For example, saying things like “familiar with” or “learned how to” is unnecessary. You should come to the point straightly and immediately address the skill so the employers can know you have the experience, instead of looking like a trainee. PhotosUnless requested or depending on the industry,  leave your photo out. You are not being judged on how you look, so including a photo will make you look unprofessional.A series of short－lived jobs If you've had a series of jobs that you've held for short periods of time, it might be a good idea to take them out. You don't want your resume to be a mess and you don't want employers to think you don't have focus. Some exceptions can be if you worked somewhere really famous that would make you look like a better job candidate. Still, even in those circumstances, be very cautious about what you do include.Really obvious skillsProficiency in, for example, Microsoft Word is generally common. Try to take those out of the skills section and substitute them with less common skills. More pagesThe general rule for resumes is to keep it to a page. Two pages should be the maximum amount of pages you should have. Keeping it short will help you pull out the most impressive achievements and leave the irrelevant ones in the dust. 本文主要指出了在求职简历中不要出现的一些信息。1．The text is written for________.A．job hunters           B．employersC．trainees           D．students答案：A'推理判断题。文章主要是给求职者就简历中应该避免的一些内容提出的建议，因此是写给求职者看的。2．Which of the following can a graduate student add in his CV?A．Clear common skills.B．Some special photos.C．Middle school or high school special references.D．A well－known company where he worked before.答案：D 细节理解题。根据文章第五段的Some exceptions can be if you worked somewhere really famous that would make you look like a better job candidate.可知D项正确。3．How many pages will be best in your resume?A．One.           B．Two.C．Three.           D．Four.答案：A　细节理解题。文章最后一段告诉我们一页纸的简历是写简历的普遍法则The general rule for resumes。4．As for a resume, ________.A．one or two photos are a mustB．referring to every skill is necessaryC．the length shows your carefulnessD．not all previous experiences are fit to be included答案：D　推理判断题。根据第五段内容可知，有些之前的很短暂的工作经历是不适合被提及的，由此可知选D。1．potential adj./n. 有潜力的；潜能2．passive adj. 被动的；消极的3．achievement n. 成绩；成就4．cautious adj. 谨慎的；小心的5．substitute vt./vi. 代替；替代1．hunt for 搜寻；寻找2．come to the point 直接了当地说原文：Unless requested or depending on the industry,  leave your photo out.(连词＋非谓语)译文：除非被要求或取决于产业需要，要不然就删掉照片。仿写：Children, when_accompanied_by_their_parents,_are allowed to enter the stadium.儿童在父母陪同的情况下才被允许进入体育馆。B [2016·安阳模拟]Your glasses may someday replace your smartphone, and some New Yorkers are ready for the switch. Some in the city can't wait to try them on and use the maps and GPS that the futuristic eyewear is likely to include.“I'd use it if I were hanging out with friends at 3 a．m. and going to the bar and wanted to see what was open，” said Walter Choo, 40, of Fort Greene. The smartphone－like glasses will likely come out this year and cost between $250 and $600, the Times said, possibly including a variation of augmented (增强的) reality， a technology already available on smartphones and tablets (平板电脑) that overlays information onto the screen about one's surroundings. So, for example, if you were walking down a street, indicators would pop_up showing you the nearest coffee shop or directions could be plotted out and come into view right on the sidewalk in front of you.“As far as a mainstream consumer product, this just isn't something anybody needs，” said Sam Biddle, who writes for Gizmodo.com. “We're accustomed to having one thing in our pocket to do all these things，” he added, “and the average consumer isn't gonna be able to afford another device (装置) that's hundreds and hundreds of dollars.”Google publisher Seth Weintraub, who has been reporting on the smartphone－like glasses since late last year, said he is confident that this type of wearable device will eventually be as common as smartphones.“It's just like smartphones 10 years ago，” Weintraub said. “A few people started getting e­mails on their phones, and people thought that was crazy. Same kind of thing. We see people bending their heads to look at their smartphones, and it's unnatural，” he said. “There's gonna be improvements to that, and this is a step there.”本文主要介绍了一种使用智能技术的新型眼镜，这种眼镜可以向用户提供周围环境的具体信息。5．One of the possible functions of the smartphone－like glasses is to ________.A．program the opening hours of a barB．supply you with a picture of the futureC．provide information about your surroundingsD．update the maps and GPS in your smartphones答案：C　细节理解题。根据文章第三段“including a variation of augmented (增强的) reality, a technology already available on smartphones and tablets (平板电脑) that overlays information onto the screen about one's surroundings.”可知Google眼镜这一技术可以给你提供周围环境的信息。故C正确。6．The underlined phrase “pop up” in the third paragraph probably means “________”．A．develop rapidly           B．get round quicklyC．appear immediately       D．go over automatically答案：C　词义猜测题。根据本句“indicators would pop up showing you the nearest coffee shop or directions could be plotted out and come into view right on the sidewalk in front of you.”以及上一句中的“that overlays information onto the screen about one's surroundings.”可知只有这一技术可以迅速得知你周围事物的信息，故该词表示C项含义。7．According to Sam Biddle, the smartphone－like glasses are ________.A．necessary for teenagersB．attractive to New YorkersC．available to people worldwideD．expensive for average consumers答案：D　细节理解题。根据文章第四段最后一句“the average consumer isn't gonna be able to afford another device (装置) that's hundreds and hundreds of dollars.”可知目前这一产品的价格还不是普通人能够承受的。故D正确。8．We can learn from the last two paragraphs that the smartphone－like glasses ________.A．may have a potential market B．are as common as smartphonesC．are popular among young adultsD．will be improved by a new technology答案：A　推理判断题。根据文章最后两段可知10年前人们认为智能手机是不可能的，但是10年以后这都是很常见的个人物品。作者以此来类推这一新技术，也就是说作者认为这一技术的潜在市场也是巨大的。故A正确。1．reality n. 现实；实现  2.surroundings n. 环境3．plot n．/vt. 情节；密谋；划分4．eventually adv.  最终5．unnatural adj. 不自然的；反常的1．hang out 闲逛；挂出  2.be accustomed to 习惯于原文：Some in the city can't wait to try them on and use the maps and GPS that the futuristic eyewear is likely to include.译文：在城里一些人迫不及待地尝试并使用未来护目镜可能含有的地图和GPS装置。仿写：After the exam, most of the students can't_wait_to_learn_ the_result_of_it.在考试结束后，大部分同学都迫不及待地想了解考试结果。Ⅲ.短文改错(建议用时8′)[2016·河南南阳检测]In the past, my hometown was very small.
