When Jenny Benson was eight.Her mother took her to soccer practice for the first time.
“She’s never played soccer before,” Mrs Benson told the coach.“I’m not sure how she’ll do.”
Jenny ran onto the field and joined the other players.Over the next hour,Mrs Benson and the coach watched as Jenny outrun many of the more experienced players.
“I knew then that soccer would be Jenny’s sport.” Mrs Benson recalls.And she was right.
It may have helped that Jenny had spent much of her time trying to keep up with her three brothers.“I wanted to be just like them.” Jenny says.“My family has inspired me for my entire life.”
Jenny has retried from the United States women’s national soccer team.She started out on her professional career in the Philadelphia Charge—a team in the Women’s United Soccer Association (WUSA).When the WUSA was being formed,league officials watched many college soccer games,looking for players good enough to join the league.They were very interested in Jenny,who played for the University of Nebraska.
“Throughout that college season,I knew I was being watched,” Jenny says,“I knew I couldn’t be perfect,so I just tried to be very consistent and have fun.”
As a professional,Jenny relied on her focused but fun-loving attitude.“In a game,I try never to put too much pressure on myself.The more I concentrate on having fun,the better I play.” She says.“I have good and bad days,just like everyone else,but I know the sun will always come up after a bad day.So all I have to do is to adjust myself,either to the change of my inner feelings or to the change of circumstances.That helps me get through anything.”

Tight-lipped elders used to say,“It’s not what you want in this world,but what you get.”
Psychology teaches that you do get what you want if you know what you want and want the right things.You can make a mental blueprint of a desire as you would make a blueprint of a house,and each of us is continually making these blueprints in the general routine of everyday living.If we intend to have friends to dinner,we plan the menu,make a shopping list,decide which food to cook first,and such planning is essential for any type of meal to be served.
Likewise,if you want to find a job,take a sheet of paper,and write a brief account of yourself.In making a blueprint for a job,begin with yourself,for when you know exactly what you have to offer,you can intelligently plan where to sell your services.
This account of yourself is actually a sketch of your working life and should include education,experience and references.Such an account is valuable.It can be referred to in filling out standard application blanks and is extremely helpful in personal interviews.While talking to you,your could-be employer is deciding whether your education,your experience,and other qualifications will pay him to employ you and your “ wares ” and abilities must be displayed in an orderly and reasonably connected manner.
When you have carefully prepared a blueprint of your abilities and desires,you have something tangible to sell.Then you are ready to hunt for a job.Get all the possible information about your could-be job.Make inquiries as to the details concerning the job and the firm.Keep your eyes and ears open,and use your own judgment.Spend a certain amount of time each day seeking the employment you wish for,and keep in mind:Securing a job is your job now.
4.What do the elders mean when they say,“It’s not what you want in this world,but what you get.”
A.You’ll certainly get what you want.
B.It’s no use dreaming.
C.You should be dissatisfied with what you have.
D.It’s essential to set a goal for yourself.
答案:B
解析:推理判断题。根据本句内容可知,此处表示在这个世界上重要的不是你想要什么,而是你得到了什么。也就是说只有梦想是没有用的,重要的是你的行动。故B项正确。
5.A blueprint made before inviting a friend to dinner is used in this passage as .
A.an illustration of how to write an application for a job
B.an indication of how to secure a good job
C.a guideline for job description
D.a principle for job evaluation
答案:A
解析:推理判断题。根据第三段第一句 “Likewise,if you want to find a job,take a sheet of paper,and write a brief account of yourself.”可知,与此类似,如果你想找到一份工作,要写自我介绍去申请。这是作者使用第二段内容的目的,介绍如何来写工作申请书。故A项正确。
6.According to the passage,one must write an account of himself before starting to find a job because .
A.that is the first step to please the employer
B.that is the requirement of the employer
C.it enables him to know when to sell his services
D.it forces him to become clearly aware of himself
