The experience can be very bad for kids, who may not be a part of the decision to move and may not understand it. You can take steps to make the entire process easier for everyone.Many kids like to stay in familiar places. So as you consider a move, weigh the benefits (好处) of that change against the comfort that neighborhood, school, and social life give your kids. If your family has recently dealt with a big life change, such as death, you may want to put off a move to give your children time to accept the fact.The decision to move may be out of your hands, perhaps because of a new job or money problems. Even if youre not happy about the move, try to keep a positive (积极的) attitude to it. During the move, a parents attitude can greatly influence kids.No matter what the results are, the most important way to prepare kids to move is to talk about it. Try to give your children as much information about the move as possible. You can ask kids to join in the planning such as house-hunting or the search for a new school. This can make the change feel less like its being forced on them. If youre moving across town, try to take your children to visit the new house and the new neighborhood. A move can have many problems, but your family might grow closer and you may learn more about each other by going through it together.4. According to the text, a move can be a bad experience for kids because _.A. they often feel lonely in a new school B. they may feel theyre forced to do soC. they are ignored by their busy parents D. they are tired of the moving process5. Which is the most important when making the move easier for children?A. Allowing them to choose a school by themselves. B. Trying not to show them the bad parts of a move.C. Promising to choose a new house with them. D. Offering them as much information as possible.6.In which situation does the author advise to put off a move?AA family member has died. BThe childs birthday is coming. CThe new neighborhood isnt safe. DThe parents have money problems.7. The author wrote this text mainly to tell us _.A. what we should do before a move B. how a move can change the familyC. how to prepare children for a move D. why parents should talk to children oftenCThe impression you make at the beginning of an interview is very important. Employers often decide to hire someone in the first three minutes of the interview. They judge you by your appearance, attitude and manners.A friendly smile when you walk into the room is important. A smile shows a confident and positive attitude. When you introduce yourself, make eye contact with the interviewer. Some interviewers offer a handshake. Others dont.Try to be as natural as possible. But pay attention to your body language. The way you sit, walk, gesture, use your voice and show feelings on your face is all part of your body language. It makes the interviewer know how you feel about yourself and the situation you are in. Are you feeling positively about yourself？Your abilities? Your interest in the job？Speak clearly and loudly enough. Show interest and enthusiasm in your voice. When you speak, look at the interviewer. Also, dont say negative things about yourself, or former employer.Listen to questions carefully. If you dont understand a question, ask the interviewer to repeat or explain:“Im sorry, but I didnt catch that.”“Im not sure exactly what you mean.”Almost everyone is nervous in a job interview. Interviewers know that. They dont expect you to be totally calm and relaxed. But they expect you to try to control your nervousness. They expect you to show confidence in your ability to do the job.At the end of the interview, thank the interviewer for her or his time. Its a good idea to send a short thank-you letter right after the interview, or deliver it by hand.Phone the company if you have not heard anything after one week. Ask if they have made a decision about the job.Good luck!8. It can be inferred from the passage that _.A. you should always put on a smile when meeting the employerB. you should stand still with respect before the employerC. employers understand and like employees nervousnessD. the first impression is very important in an interview9. Why should we pay attention to our body language?A. Because it can help us win the employers positive impression.B. Because it can help us feel about the employer.C. Because it is needed by our employer.D. Because we need it to improve our feelings.10. The main purpose of the passage is _.A. to tell right from wrong about job interviewsB. to give you some advice on the art of finding a jobC. to explain why we should do something about an interviewD. to suggest not being shy in an interview11. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. A Friendly Smile B. Dont Be NervousC. Making a Good Expression D. Sending a Thank-You LetterDBig data（数据）is a lot of sets of information that are put together so they can be used by a computer program. The computer program looks for different kinds of answers or patterns in the data. Big data can have different kinds of information from many sources, such as information that comes from schools, social media sites, companies and governments. One set of data can have peoples names and addresses. Another set can have what they like, where they go to school, and how much time they spend on the computer.Big data can be used in many ways. The government uses it to understand how many people travel on buses or trains. This information is then used to make bus or train systems better. Some schools use big data to understand which children may need extra help in class. The teacher can then give certain students more help or support so those students can succeed in school. Companies use big data, too. It helps them understand who buys their products. For example, one company uses weather data to see when people eat the most ice cream.Big data can be used for good reasons. Some hospitals use big data to predict if a baby who is born too early will get sick. The hospital can then take extra steps to take care of that baby so he or she does not get sick. Big data can also be used for bad reasons. It can be used to predict which kinds of people are likely to break the law or hurt others, even if they have not done anything wrong.How can big data be used for good and bad things? It is because the computer programs used to look at big data and understand it are written by people. People think a certain way. Because they think a certain way, they build a model of those ideas. These ideas are then used to look at the data. Sometimes, these ideas are helpful for people or businesses. Other times, bad ideas can cause problems for certain groups of people.12.This reading is about.A.what schools and hospitals people likeB.where important data is collected and storedC.what big data is and how it is usedD.how big data is controlled by governments and companies13.One company uses weather information to.A.help children in need B.understand when people will need ice creamC.know when people will visit the hospital D.find out who rides the bus or train14.The main idea of Paragraph 3 is.A.big data can be used for good reasonsB.big data can be used for both good and bad reasonsC.we can use big data in a number of waysD.we can use big data to prevent babies from getting sick15.
