First, it is important 4 what kind of person you are, which special qualities 5 you outstanding among people and what you are interested in. There is a difference 6 an interest and a skill. If you like 7 and enjoy looking at pictures, that is an interest. But if you can draw a horse that looks like a horse not a big dog, that is a 8 .
Then ask yourself a question, “In the following three areas— skills with people, skills with information and skills with things, which are your 9 skills ”
After examining your skills, the next step is research. To 10 as many different kinds of jobs as possible, go to the library and read books, magazines and newspapers for information.

二、阅读短文,选择正确答案
What personal qualities are preferred in a teacher Probably no two people would give the same answer to this question. As we know, the teacher's personality should be favourably lively and attractive.This is not to say that ugly-looking people cannot be considered here, because many such have great characteristics. But it does mean that those impatient, cold, unfriendly people with negative personalities can never be good teachers. But I think the following would also be generally agreed.
A teacher should be intelligent(聪明的) and well-organized. As a teacher, he or she should always know what is going to happen in class. Always be prepared to solve a problem, to answer a strange question and to suggest a good idea. At the same time, a teacher also needs to be honest. Everyone makes mistakes, and a teacher shouldn't be embarrassed by this but bravely admit(承认) his/ her own faults.
A teacher should know how to appreciate students' progress, when to avoid making students feel stupid, and praise students as much as possible. A teacher should know that being strict doesn't mean

you don't encourage children. Children would prefer to correct their mistakes when you encourage them rather than when you criticize them seriously. Positive words are always better for helping children.
In addition,a good teacher should know how to behave in an amusing way at the right time. Jokes are the best friends of a teaching method. A funny and relaxing class will help children to love learning.Don't be afraid of being laughed at. Making friends with children is not an embarrassing thing. You will find in fact that children will respect you more than you imagine.
I think a teacher should also be a learner. Teaching is a job; it will never be perfect. There is always something more to learn about it. There are three important things in teaching: the subjects, the method of teaching and the most important— the children, young people or adults—— the learners. A good relationship between two persons— the teacher and the learner— makes a good education.
( )1. A good teacher should be .
A. cold and serious B. strict and friendly
C. humorous and strange D. good-looking and lively
( )2. Which of the following statements is TRUE
A. A good teacher never makes mistakes at any time.
B. A teacher should always behave in an amusing way.
C. It isn't embarrassing for teachers to make friends with students.
D. A teacher should criticize students instead of encouraging them.
( )3. The word“appreciate” in Paragraph 3 probably means“ ” in Chinese.
A.欣赏 B.羡慕 C.感激 D.确认
( )4. What is the best title of the passage
A. A good teacher, a good learner
B. What makes a good education
C. Three important things in teaching
D. The personal qualities of a teacher
三、首字母填空
A student spent four years working days and nights while she worked on her university degree(学位). A 1 university, she had her eye on a teaching job at a primary school. She went on an interview with the school's headmaster.
To everyone's 2 , the would-be teacher didn't get the job. “I found a small hole in my stockings(长袜) earlier,” she said. “I thought aboutc 3 them, but I knew I'd be late if I did that. By the timeI got to the interview, the hole was e 4 bigger. I walked in and apologized(道歉) for not looking my best.”
The headmaster said, “If someone doesn't take the time to p 5 herself well before an interview,what kind of teacher is she going to be ”
First impressions are 1 6 ones. In other words, if you are well-prepared when you first meet0 7 , they may feel more positive about you. But if you give an interviewer a bad impression, he may believe you are notr 8 for the job. You might not always get a second c 9 . Most employers(雇主) believe that those w 10 look as if they care about themselves will also care about their jobs.
