and attractive fields of work today is the fashion industry（时装行业）. some of the most well-known people in this industry are the fashion designers with unbelievable financial (金融的) kingdoms. but most of the clothes that you wear have been designed by people that the world has never heard of. although these unknown fashion designers will never make a very large amount of money as their famous workmates, most still would not think of changing their careers. they are doing what they love.if you spend hours looking through fashion magazines and like making your own clothes, a career as a fashion designer might be right for you. you do not have to go to design school to become a fashion designer, but many people who want a career（事业） in this field do. one of the most famous places to study is the fashion institute of technology in new york city. it is located in the heart of the “garment(服装)” district on eighth avenue, also known as fashion avenue. becoming a fashion designer is not just a matter of classroom education. students know that they cannot just leave school and start designing on their own. many think that they need at least four years experience working for someone else after they graduate. the best schools encourage students to work closely with the fashion industry while they are still studying.you need ambition and hard work to get a career in fashion. students often work 12 hours a day. they are encouraged to have realistic ambitions and not to expect success overnight, if ever. success means finding a job in the fashion industry and more years of hard work.56. what can we learn from the first paragraph?a. some famous fashion designers can make a lot of money.b. most of the clothes are designed by famous designers.c. most fashion designers dont like their own jobs.d. unknown fashion designers can earn a large amount of money.57. in order to have a career in fashion design, one had better _.a. look through magazines b. go to

schools are located in new york city. c. design school students had better do some practice while studying. d. all students have to work with famous designers first.ddo you get nervous and not know what to do the day before an exam? read these tips（技巧）.1. take the day off from studying.research has shown that studying right before an exam is more likely to hurt than to help. why? because the information studied is still floating around in your short-term memory and actually interferes (干扰) recall of the information that you have studied days, weeks or even months before.2. plan something fun to do as a reward for all the effort you have put into getting ready.call friends to make plans for the time after the exam. take in a good movie or shop at a favorite store. in short, do something interesting that you have put off during the previous weeks of preparing and treat yourself to something special.3. watch your intake of caffeine.nothing drives up your anxiety level faster than not being able to fall asleep the night before an exam, so avoid drinks, like coffee, tea, or colas.4. try to relax with physically tiring activities.do some activities like swimming, jogging, or biking so that you will feel tired enough to sleep. a warm shower or bath close to bedtime will also help relax you. unless you know exactly how it will affect you the next day, avoid taking any sleeping pills because they may leave you feeling drowsy during the exam, which will affect your performance.5. _.check everything you will need for the exam before you go to sleep. in this way, you
