As you are probably aware, the latest job arkets news isn’t good: Uneployent is still ore than 9 percent, and new job growth has fallen close to zero. That’s bad for the econoy, of course. And it ay be especially discouraging if you happen to be looking for a job or hoping to change careers right no But it actually shouldn’t atter to you nearly as uch as you think.
That’s because job growth nubers don’t atter to job hunters as uch as job turnover data. After all, existing jobs open up every day due to prootions, resignations, terinations (终止), and retireents. In both good ties and bad, turnover creates ore openings than econoic growth does. Even in June of 2007, when the econoy was still huing along, job growth was only 132,000, while turnover was 4.7 illion!
And as it turns out, even today — with job growth near zero — over 4 illion job hunters are being hired every onth.
I don’t ean to iply that overall job growth doesn’t have an ipact on one’s ability to land a job. It’s true that if total eployent were higher, it would ean ore jobs for all of us to choose fro (and copete for).
But what often distinguishes those who land jobs fro those who don’t is their ability to stay otivated. They’re willing to do the hard work of identifying their valuable skills; be creative about where and how to look; learn how to present theselves to potential eployers; and keep going, even after repeated rejections.
So don’t let the headlines fool you into giving up. Four illion people get hired every onth in the U.S. You can be one of the.

A. It doesn’t have uch effect on individual job seekers.
B. It increases people’s confidence in the econoy.
C. It gives a ray of hope to the uneployed.
D. It doesn’t ean greater job security for the eployed.
70.What is the key to landing a job according to the author?
A. Education.B. Intelligence (智力).

As you grow older, you’ll be faced with soe challenging decisions—like whether to cut class or try cigarettes. aking decisions on your own is hard enough, but when other people get involved and try to pressure you one way or another it can be even harder. People who are your age, like your classates, are called peers. When they try to influence how you act, to get you to do soething, it’s called peer pressure.
Peers can have a positive influence on each other. aybe another student in your science class taught you an easy way to reeber the planets in the solar syste. aybe you got others excited about your new favorite book, and now everyone’s reading it. These are exaples of how peers positively influence each other.
Soeties peers influence each other in negative ways. For exaple, a few kids in school ight try to get you to cut class with the; your soccer friend ight try to convince you to be ean to another player and never pass hi the ball.
It is tough to be the only one who says “no” to peer pressure, but you can do it. Paying attention to your own feelings and beliefs about what is right and wrong can help you know the right thing to do.
You’ve probably had a parent or teacher advising you to “choose your friends wisely.” Peer pressure is a big reason why they say this. If you choose friends who don’t cut class, soke cigarettes, or lie to their parents, then you probably won’t do these things either, even if other kids do.
If you continue to face peer pressure and you’re finding it difficult to handle, talk to soeone you trust. Don’t feel guilty if you’ve ade a istake or two.
