Sometimes you can find a job easily, by walking into a local store and looking at its notice board (布告栏). Local stores often have areas for people to put small signs telling the services that they need or they can provide. Such services include looking after children or cleaning houses.Another popular tool for finding a job is the Internet. For example, people around the world can use the Craigslist Website to buy things, meet people or find a job. It is said that the site can receive two million new jobs each month.Another useful way to find a job is through a university. For example, students at the University of Texas can go to the job center to get help. Many college students like this way better.At times, some experts (专业人士) can also help people find a job. Susan Miller has her own company called California Job Services in Los Angeles. She says her company helps people find a job by first helping them understand their strengths, goals and interests. Then she provides them with methods to help them find the right job. So with her help, many people have succeeded in finding a good job.64.

Will robots control our planet? Will computers become smarter than us? Not likely. But here are some things that scientists say are most likely to happen in 10-30 years from now, according to the BBC.Digital MoneyWe used to pay with cash (现金) for everything we bought. Now when we use a credit card (信用卡) to shop online, money is spent without seeing it. That means we are already using digital money. Using a card is much easier than searching our pockets for change. It is also safer than carrying a lot of cash.When ATM cards were first introduced, they were not accepted everywhere. But now its hard to live without them. Its reported that people in Sweden completely stopped using cash last year, and the US might be the next.Bionic (仿生的) EyesTheyre no longer something only in a science fiction movie. People who are blind may have a chance to get their sight back-by wearing bionic eyes.A blind eye can no longer sense light, but a bionic eye can use a camera to see the environment and send date (数据) to the mind. Now the bionic eye only allows patients to see lights and unclear shapes. A high-resolution (高清的) image could be just a few years away.Self-Driving CarsUnlike a human driver, a self-driving car wont get distracted (分神) by a phone call, the radio or something outside the window. Sensors (探测器) and cameras on the car would allow it to stick strictly to the rules of the road and keep a safe distance from other cars. This would greatly reduce the number of road accidents You could even take a nap while the car drives itself. In the future, driverless cars would be widely accepted.68. _ has stopped using cash completely.A. Sweden B. ATM C. BBC D. America69. What does the writer mainly tell us about digital money?A.

Which of the following can be predicted (预测) from the passage?A. There would be a number of self-driving cars on the road.B. The blind could use cameras to see things around.C. We would live a hard life with digital money.D. Robots would control the world.DIf you think GM(转基因的) food Sounds far away from you, you are totally wrong. In fact, you may eat GM food every day.
