Do you want a part-time job to earn some extra money? Check out the list and

find one that suits your fancy.

TECHNICAL SUPPORT

It seems almost everyone has a friend who is a technical genius. Such people earn

money using their talent. If you are one of them, you could be responsible for technical

support in your college or university and get your part-time job. You can enjoy the process

of earning money while doing your favorite thing.

TUTOR

A lot of students hire a tutor to help them in high school or college. If you are

good at some subjects, why not work as a peer tutor? You help your friends and

earn money at the same time. If you know foreign languages, you can make more

money. All you need to do is to make an appropriate advertisement of your services

using college newspapers. One of the best things about being a tutor is that you can

set your hours.

FITNESS INSTRUCTOR

If your college or university has a fitness center and if you are a sporty person,

go and sign up to get this job. You will have an absolute free opportunity to engage

yourself in sports. You need to be a good psychologist, because you are going to

work with people and it’ll be your job to persuade and motivate them to become

sporty, healthy and strong. Being a fitness instructor is a perfect position for those

who love to help other people and want to make more friends.

OFFICE WORKER

Nowadays many companies cooperate with college students giving them part-

time jobs. Some of the major job duties of an office worker are answering calls and

scheduling appointments. If you are interested in doing this job, contact the

representatives of different companies to find out if they’re currently hiring anyone.

At thirteen years old, I was like any other kid of my age. I liked computer games.

I complained about too much homework. I wore loose pants and oversize T-shirts,

the typical middle-school prison clothing. However, I can look straight into your eyes

and not hear a word you’re saying. I appear to be listening while my mind is

somewhere miles away.

After extensive tests, the doctor explained to my mom that I was what they

called “dual exceptional”. It means that I am what they call “gifted” and yet I’m also

learning disabled.

In middle school, I took Language Arts with Mrs. Smith. That day, she handed

out copies of them for us to memorize and be tested on the following day. I told her

that I might need to take home some reading assignments because my

concentration is better when I am in a quiet setting. I went on to explain to her about

my “fine motor skill” problems, which make my handwriting look like chicken

scratch. I asked her if I might be able to use my word processor at home to do

written assignments.

As I explained all this to Mrs. Smith, she said, “It’s against school policy. You

are no different from anyone else, young man. If I do for you, I have to do for all the

others. I have treated all students the same in the thirty years I have taught here. I

will not give you an unfair advantage over your peers!”

I did what any other kid would do in my situation: I stole the packet out of the

classroom. That night I sat down at my word processor. My thoughts spilled out so

fast that my fingers danced across the keyboard.

Mrs. Smith never looked at me as she handed my paper back facedown on my

desk the next day. As my eyes focused on the white page, I found an A decorating

the margin ( 页边空白 ) instead of her usual X. Underneath were her neatly red-

penned words: “See what you can do when you apply yourself ?”

4. What problem does the author have?

A. He isn’t clever at any school subjects.

B. He finds his middle school to be a prison.

C. He is suffering from his physical disability.

D. He can’t pay attention while others are speaking.

5. What did the author expect of Mrs. Smith to permit him to do?

A. Do his homework at home. B. Read in a quiet environment.

C. Help him improve his handwriting. D. Take notes on a computer in class.

6. Why did Mrs.Smith turn down the author?

A. She refused to have a pet student.

B. She treated every student equally.

C. She couldn’t dare to break the school policy.

D. She had no chance to give an unfair advantage.

7. What do Mrs.Smith’s words in the last sentence suggest?

A. A warning. B. A doubt. C. A praise. D. A challenge.

Pre-school children who spend time together take on one another’s

personalities, a new research has found. The study shows that environment plays a

key role in shaping people’s personalities. While genetics still forms the central part

of the human psyche ( 心理 ), the research finds that personality traits ( 特征 ) are

“contagious” ( 传染的) among children. “ Our finding flies in the face of common

assumptions that personality can’t be changed,” said Dr. Jennifer Neal, co-author of

the study.

The researchers studied the personalities and social networks of two pre-school

classes for a full school year. One of the classes was a set of three-year-olds, and

the other a set of four-year-olds. Children whose friends were hard-working or

outgoing gradually took on these personality traits over time. Psychology expert Dr.

Emily Dublin said kids are having a far bigger effect on each other than people may

realize.

The new study is not the first to explore the contagious effects of personality

traits. A 2015 psychology study found that rudeness at work can be contagious as it

travels from person to person “like a disease”. The study found that seeing a boss

being rude to an employee was enough to cause people to be rude to those around

them.

The researchers questioned 6,000 people on the social “climate” in their

workplaces, which included offices, hotels and restaurants. They found 75 percent

of those who took part said they had been treated rudely at least once in the past

year. And the study also suggests that merely seeing other people being subjected

to rudeness made it more likely that a person would treat their colleagues in the

same way. Rudeness could include leaving someone off an invite to a company

event, sending unkind emails, finding fault with others or failing to give praise.

Dr.Torkelson believes companies need to be more aware of the harm that

rudeness in the workplace can do as it can damage the working environment. She

said better training could help to fight against the problem.

8. According to Paragraph 2, who have the greatest impact on children’s

personality?

A. Their parents. B. Their friends. C. The researchers. D. The

psychologists.

9. Which of the following is considered rude at the workplace?

A. Ignoring the faults of co-workers.

B. Not sending emails to workmates.

C. Seeking praise from colleagues and bosses.

D. Not inviting a colleague to a company party.
