江苏省南京玄武区2019-2020学年初中英语八年级下学期期末考试卷
When you are in a place where you are looking for a new job or career and that there are several things that you should pay attention to. Jobs and careers are fewer than you expect, especially when satisfying (令人满意的) employment is something you need to seriously think about. How are you going to find the job that you want and what should you avoid on your way? When you want to make use of your job search, take a moment and think about the things that you must avoid at all.
One of the most important rules is never to compromise (妥协) on the things you ask for or it will have a bad effect ( 影 响 ) on your life and peace of mind. Keep in mind your basic expectations of a dream job. They might be something about money or you might find they have something to do with time off. Whatever they are, make sure that you do not accept a job without them. Your requirements (需求) might not be easy to meet, but you have the right to try and achieve them.
What's more, don't go away from odd (临时的) jobs that might actually take you to the place that you want to be in. Sometimes, finding the right job is a matter of luck and chance after you have been searching and putting in a lot of effort (努力). And if something unexpected happens, remember that taking the chance is of great importance and is something you might want to seriously consider (考虑). As long as you keep your goals in mind, you are going to be doing much better than other people during the job search.
If you are looking for the right job, another thing that you can do to make sure that you get the right kind of employment is to market yourself. If required, give enough encouragement to yourself and try to confidently look at all that you have. Make sure that you can show your skills and abilities. If the jobs that you have set your sights on are challenging (有挑战性的), set goals for yourself and work hard at them. The more efforts you put in marketing yourself the more your chances of getting the job you like will be.
Remember that when you are working on a job search, you should not short-change yourself this is because you will only harm yourself by setting low goals.

Some birthday customs(习惯) are quite similar(相似) in many parts of the world—- birthday candles, birthday games,and birthday cakes. But some customs are more special to some countries. Here are some children talking about their customs.
Linda—I am fourteen. I come from Aruba. In our country, children take something special to school for their classmates and all teachers. Every teacher gives the birthday child a small present like a pencil, an eraser or a postcard. The birthday child doesn't need to wear special uniform(校服). He or she can wear family clothes.
Lucy—I am one year older than Linda. Denmark(丹麦) is my country. We hung a flag(旗帜) outside a window to show that someone in that house is having a birthday. Presents are placed around the child's bed while they are sleeping so they will see them at once when they wake up.
Tom—I am as old as Linda. I am from Brazil(巴西). The birthday child receives a pull on the earlobe(耳垂) for each year in my country. The birthday person also gives the first slice of cake to his most special friend or relative, usually mom or dad.
