Chances

I really love my job because I enjoy working with small children and like the challenges and awards from the job. I also think my work is important. There was a time when I thought I would never have that sort of career(职业)．

I wasn't an excellent student because I didn't do much schoolwork. In my final term I started thinking what I might do and found I didn't have much to offer. I just accepted that I wasn't the type to have a career.

I then found myself a job, looking after two little girls. It wasn't too bad at first. But the problems began when I agreed to live in, so that I would be there if my boss had to go out for business in the evening. We agreed that if I had to work extra hours one week, she'd give me time off the next. But unfortunately, it didn't often work out. I was getting extremely tired and fed up, because I had too many late nights and early morning with the children.

One Sunday, I was in the park with the children, and met Megan who used to go to school with me. I told her about my situation. She suggested that I should do a course and get a qualification(资格证书)if I wanted to work with children. I didn't think I would be accepted because I didn't take many exams in school. She persuaded me to phone the local college and they were really helpful. My experience counted for a lot and I got on a part­time course. I had to leave my job with the family, and got work helping out at a kindergarten.

Now I've got a full­time job there. I shall always be thankful to Megan. I wish I had known earlier that you could have a career, even if you aren't top of the class at school.

高二英语完形填空中等难度题查看答案及解析

Even if you really enjoy your job, it’s still possible to feel bored as you work. You may not be able to make big changes—or change your job—but you can make small adjustments. Here are some tips on how to battle boredom.

1. Switch Your Seat

Change your outlook at the office by changing your office. Ask your assistant to help you find a new desk. If it’s not possible to change your location, see if you can change your desk’s direction. A new view can be just as refreshing as a new location.

2. ______________

Take a subway. Ride a bike on sunny days. You needn’t change the way to go to work for ever—just long enough to help you escape the boredom.

3. Find a New Work Style

Tired of attending that long-standing Monday morning meeting? Try to change it to the afternoon. If you find yourself feeling most bored in the afternoons, try to arrange to do your favorite tasks then and tackle less desirable projects in the mornings. If you usually communicate with coworkers via email and instant messaging, start dealing with people face to face. Increased communication with coworkers may help improve your mood.

4. Get and Set an aim

If your work is short of aims, it’s no wonder that work has become boring. Set an aim. Your aim needn’t be great as long as you are enthusiastic about it. Whatever it is, actively move toward an objective.

1. What is the main idea of the passage? (within 10 words)

______________________________________________________________________________________

2.Which sentence in the text is the closest in meaning to the following one?

You will feel bored when you are not working toward something.

______________________________________________________________________________________

3. Fill in the blank in Paragraph 3 with proper words. (within 8 words)

———————————————————————————————————————————

4. List three methods of escaping from boredom from the passage. (within 5 words for each)

①________________________  ②________________________  ③________________________

5.Translate the underlined sentence in the Last Paragraph into Chinese.
