you want and want the right thingsYou can make a mental blueprint of a desire as you would make a blueprint of a house, and each of us is continually making these blueprints in the general routine of everyday livingIf we intend to have friends to dinner, we plan the menu, make a shopping list, decide which food to cook first, and such planning is an essential for any type of meal to be servedLikewise, if you want to find a job, take a sheet of paper, and write a brief account of yourselfIn making a blueprint for a job, begin with yourself, for when you know exactly what you have to offer, you can intelligently plan where to sell your servicesThis account of yourself is actually a sketch of your working life and should include education, experience and referencesSuch an account is valuableIt can be referred to in filling out standard application blanks and is extremely helpful in personal interviewsWhile talking to you, you could-be employer is deciding whether your education, your experience, and other qualifications, will pay him to employ you and your “wares” and abilities must be displayed in an orderly and reasonably connected mannerWhen you have carefully

（B）Birds that are literally half asleep-with one brain hemisphere alert and the other sleeping-control which side of the brain remains awake, according to a new study of sleeping ducksEarlier studies have documented half brain sleep in a wide range of birdsThe brain hemispheres take turns sinking into the sleep stage characterized by slow brain wavesThe eye controlled by the sleeping hemisphere keeps shut, while the wakeful hemispheres eye stays open and alertBirds also can sleep with both hemispheres resting at once Decades of studies of bird flocks led researchers to predict extra alertness in the more vulnerable, end of the row sleepersSure enough, in the end birds tended to watch carefully on the side away from their companionsDucks in the inner spots showed no preference for gaze direction Also, birds dozing（打盹） at the end of the line resorted to singlehemisphere sleep, rather than total relaxation, more often than inner ducks didRotating 16 birds through the positions in a four duck row, the researchers found outer birds half asleep during some 32 percent of dozing time versus about 12 percent for birds in internal spots We believe this is the first evidence for an animal behaviorally controlling sleep and wakefulness simultaneously in different regions of the brain，the researchers sayThe results provide the best evidence for a long standing supposition that single hemisphere sleep evolved as creatures scanned for enemiesThe preference for opening an eye on the lookout side could be widespread, he predictsHes seen it in a pair of birds dozing side by side in the zoo and in a single pet bird sleeping by a mirrorThe mirror side eye closed as if the reflection were companion and the other eye stayed open Useful as half sleeping might be, its only been found in birds and such water mammals（哺乳动物） as dolphins, whales, and sealsPerhaps keeping one side of the brain awake allows a sleeping animal to surface occasionally to avoid drowning Studies of birds may offer unique insights into sleepJerome MSiegel of the UCLA says he wonders if birds half brain sleep is just the tip of the iceberg （冰山） He speculates that more examples may turn up when we take a closer look at other species 68A new study on birds sleep has revealed that _ Ahalf brain sleep is found in a wide variety of birds Bhalf brain sleep is characterized by slow brain wave
