yourself is when there is a demand for you and your services that will help you achieve your goals. though when people talk about marketing, they usually think that this is about producing a sale. but, it does not necessarily have to be.if you are an employee then you want your boss to take your ideas, and if you are on a job hunting then you want to find a good position. so in reality, marketing really leads to sale. therefore, marketing yourself means you are simply “selling” yourself!the common problem in marketing yourself is that most people think that it is unpleasant to market

others, you have to be a good person and a good employee. in that way your good reputation will follow naturally. have a brief and concise message that you can share with others. when you market yourself, you tell people who you are and what you can do for others. plan well and practice your message.in constructing ways for the people to notice and make connection with you, you must be open to them. communication is a great opportunity to make an impact especially when you market yourself. you also communicate by what you are wearing. know the appropriate dress code and have plenty of time to decide what you will wear. just remember to make a great first impression!41. what is the main idea of the passage? a. the reasons for marketing yourself.b. the subject of marketing yourself.

your impulse(冲动), but let it pass instead. you know that to commit the action is wrong in some way and that other people will not accept your behavior.perhaps the most interesting thing about the phenomenon of taboo(禁忌的) behavior is how it can change over the years within the same society, how certain behavior and attitudes once considered taboo can become perfectly acceptable and natural at another point in time. topics such as death, for example, were once considered so upsetting and unpleasant that it was a taboo to even talk about them. now with the publication of important books such as on death and dying and learning to say goodbye, people have become more aware of the importance of expressing feelings about death and, as a result, are more willing to talk about this taboo subject.one of the newest taboos in american society is the topic of fat. unlike many other taboos, fat is a topic that americans talk about constantly. its not taboo to talk about fat; its taboo to be fat. the “in” look is thin, not fat. in the work world, most companies prefer youthful-looking, trim executives to sell their image as well as their products to the public. the thin look is associated with youth, vigor, and success. the fat person, on the other hand, is thought of as lazy and lacking in energy, self-discipline, and self-respect. in an image-conscious society like the us, thin is “in”, fat is “out”.its not surprising, then, that millions of americans have become obsessed(着迷) with staying slim and “in shape”. the pursuit of a youthful physical appearance is not, however, the only reason for americas obsession with diet and exercise. recent research has shown the critical importance of diet and exercise for personal health. as in most technologically developed nations, the life-style of north americans has changed dramatically during the course of the last century. modern machines do all the physical labor that people were once forced to do by hand. cars and buses transport us quickly from point to point. as a result of inactivity and disuse, peoples bodies can easily become weak and vulnerable to disease. in an effort to avoid such a fate, millions of americans are spending more of their time exercising every day.50. from the passage we can infer taboo is _. a. a strong desire to do something strange or terrible b. a crime committed on impulse c. behavior considered unacceptable in societys eyes d. an unfavorable impression left on other people51. based on the ideas presented in the passage we can conclude “being fat”_. a. will always remain a taboo b. is not considered a taboo by most peoplec. has long been a taboo d. may no longer be a taboo some day52. how is the topic of fat different from other taboo subjects? a. it is frequently talked over in daily conversation. b. it is often deliberately avoided in communication. c. it is more popular with young people. d. it is unpleasant and unaccepted.53. in the us, thin is “in”, fat is “out”, this means _. a. thin is “inside”, fat is “outside”b. thin is “diligent”, fat is “lazy” c. thin is “youthful”, fat is “spiritless”d. thin is “fashionable”, fat is “unfashionable”54. the main reason the writer gives why many americans are exercising regularly is _. a. their changed life-style b. their eagerness to stay thin and youthful c. their appreciation of the importance of exercise d. the encouragement they have received from their companiesdsidewalks in chicago were packed during rush hour. i marched along as quickly as i could. if i didnt get to the station fast i would miss the early train out of the city. that meant even less time to spend at home with my baby.on my left was saint peters church. id passed it on the way to the station many times, but today i stopped. other commuters(使用月票乘车者) rushed around me. i knew i should
