28、areer switch, and I have some suggestions, though a few require time travel.Perhaps you should apply to be a tosher, an occupation that involved wandering through sewers (下水道) to look for small decorative objects in the 19th century. It would certainly get you out of that office. Or you could work a
29、s a night soil man, who carried excrement from toilets to the edge of town.What Im saying is: Mary jobs today are terrible. But relatively speaking, they are much less terrible and smelly than jobs in the past.Ive got plenty more to make you feel better. According to the book The worst Jobs in Histo
30、ry by Tony Robison, the dullest job ever could have belonged to treadmill (踏车) walkers, the folks who walked with slow heavy steps all day without access to entertainment when treadmills were used to press grain into flour. The saddest? Definitely the pleasures of the 18th-century French theater, wh
31、o were paid to weep during dramas.And Im not even counting all the hundreds of modern jobs that are probably - 6 -worse than yours. So whats my professional advice? Unless your performance involves packs of fans booing (发出嘘声) and laughing at you while you work, keep your day job.- Jacobs56. By refer

Whats Jacobs advice to Amy?A. Enough is as good as feast. B. Every bird likes it own nest.C
33、. Each day brings its own bread. D. Empty bottles make the most noise.BWhat are the practical results of the crazy pursuit of beauty? The exercises, the health motors or the skin foods to what have they led? Are women more beautiful than they were? These are questions which it is difficult to answer
34、. The campaign for more physical beauty seems to be both a success and a failure. It depends how you look at the results.It is a success to some degree as more women keep their youthful appearance to a greater age than in the past. “Old ladies” are already becoming rare. In a few years, we may well
35、believe, they will be extinct. The Portrait of the Artists Mother will come to be almost indistinguishable, at future picture shows, from the Portrait of the Artists Daughter. This desirable beauty will be due in part to skin foods and facial surgery, and in part to improved health. Ugliness is one
36、of the symptoms of disease; beauty, of health. As the campaign for more beauty is also a campaign for more health, it is admirable. Still, it has problems. Indeed, with the development of technology, people have become healthier and more beautiful, but will every woman be beautiful as beautiful, at
37、any rate, as the natural shape of her features, with or without surgical and chemical aid, permits?The answer is no. Real beauty is as much an affair of the inner self as on the outer self. The beauty of a china jar is a matter of shape and of color. The jar may be empty or occupied by spiders, full
38、 of honey or smelly slime (黏液) - it makes no difference to its beauty or ugliness. But a woman is alive, and her beauty is therefore not skin deep. The surface of the human vessel is affected by the nature of its spiritual contents.I have seen lovely women. Their shape and their color were perfect.
39、And yet they were not beautiful. For the lovely vase was either empty or filled with - 7 -some ugly things. Spiritual emptiness or ugliness shows through. In contrast, there is an inner light that can change imperfect or ugly forms into things that are beautiful and attractive.58. In what way can we
40、 say the campaign for more beauty is a success?A. People are beginning to pay attention to their appearance.B. It has become much easier for painters to draw old ladies.C. Women look younger than previous generations.D. Knowledge about health has increased hugely.59. What does the author think about
41、 the view that beauty represents health?A. Its wrong. B. Its popular. C. It benefits people. C. It needs evidence.60. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?A. B. C. D. CWhy are some people more persuasive than others? We bring together some researches into the science of persuasi
42、on.An American researcher, Edward Burkley, studied the influence of mental exhaustion on the resistance levels of 78 students. The plan was to try to persuade them to accept one months summer holiday instead of three. Half the students came to the study fresh. But the other half first had to complet
43、e a self-control task in which they wrote down all the thoughts that came into their heads while trying not to think about a white bear. He found that the students who had performed the white bear task were less resistant to the idea of giving up two months of holiday.Two other researchers, Rosanna
44、Guadagno and Robert Cialdini, compared the persuasive power of online communication with face-to-face meetings. They had a group of students discuss the introduction of new exams. The group was divided into pairs of the same sex, each pair including an experimenter whose role was to argue in favor o
45、f the idea. Half the discussions took place in an online chatroom, the other half face-to-face. While overall men performed similarly whether they participated in the electronic or face-to-face discussions, women in face-to-face discussions were more easily persuaded than those who only took - 8 -pa
46、rt online.In another experiment, John Sparks and Charles Areni asked 118 undergraduates to read testimonials(推荐书) about a scanner. In one version, the testimonials included hesitation like “I mean” and “ummm”; in the other, there were none. The researchers found that when hesitant language was used,
47、 people were less easily convinced that this was a scanner worth buying even when it was a better scanner at a lower price. Style was especially important, the researchers found, when time was limited. “If you cant pay attention to what the speaker is saying,” Sparks says, “you pay attention to how
48、they say it.”Much study has gone into how emotions aid persuasion. The best known and most studied is fear. It serves well in campaigns that try to stop you from doing something, like smoking. But fear doesnt always work, says Professor Monique Mitchell Turner, and over time, people become more resistant to scare methods. The same applies to guilt. “We dont want people to tell us were bad people,” says Turner. Anger, however, can be constructively used.61. Whats the aim of the white bear task?A. To make participants feel
