However, I know from personal experience how difficult this really is. For more than a year,
22、I was U U 1 /U /Uhundreds and sometimes thousands of dollars a day investing in the market. It seemed so easy, I dreamed of U U 2 /U /Umy job at the end of the year, of buying a small apartment in Paris, of traveling around the world. But these dreams came to a sudden and dramatic end when a stock I

But like so many things in life, we dont learn anything until we experience it for ourselves. The only way to really
26、understand the inner U U 8 /U /Uof the stock market is to invest your own hard-earned money. When all your stocks are doing U U 9 /U /Uand you feel like a winner, you learn very little.

They say that despite enclosing return envelopes they hear nothing at all or, at best, an impersonal note is sent decla
30、ring that the post for which they applied has been filled. Applicants often develop the suspicion that vacancies are marked for friends and relatives and that advertisements are only put out to avert this accusation. Many of them tire of writing around and feel that if only they could obtain an inte
31、rview with the right person their application would meet with success. Not to acknowledge applicants letters is impolite and there seems little excuse for this. Yet even sending brief replies to the many who apply takes much time and money. That so-called return envelop may not have been stamped by
32、the sender, and a hard pressed office manager may be reluctant to send off long letters of explanation to disappointed job hunters. A brief note is all that can be managed and even that depends on the policy of the firm. But this difficulty is reasonably easy to remove with a little goodwill. The fa
33、ilure of an application is more often the fault of the applicant, for many applicants do not set about their task in the right way. They do not study the job requirements deeply enough and dispatch applications to all and sundry in the hope that one will bear fruit. The personnel manager of a textil
34、es manufacturer, for example, advertised for designers. He was willing to consider young people without working experience provided they had good ideas. The replies contained many remarks like: “At school I was good at art“, “I like drawing things“ and even “I write very interesting stories“. Only o
35、ne applicant was sensible enough to enclose samples of her designs. She got the job. Personnel managers emphasize the need for a good letter of application. They do not look for the finest writing paper and perfect typing, but it is reasonable to expect legible writing on a clean sheet of paper, not
36、 a piece torn roughly from an exercise book. As soon as the applicant is lucky enough to receive an invitation to attend an interview, he should acknowledge the letter and say he will attend, but the matter does not end there. The wise applicant will fill in the interval, making himself familiar wit
37、h the activities of the company he hopes to join. Some applicants have not the faintest idea what the company does and this puts them at a great disadvantage when they come to answer the questions that will be put to them in the interview. Finally, the way an applicant presents himself at the interv
38、iew can sometimes mar his chances. The applicant who arrives late is almost certain not to be appointed, as no employer likes unpunctuality. Dress is important, too. An interview is a rather special occasion and the wise applicant will come dressed in a way that shows he takes it seriously.（分数：6.00）
39、(1).About advertised jobs, applicants often suspect that_. A. they are most likely not to get response from the company B. the company would find excuses to deny their applications C. most of the interviewers are unsympathetic D. the posts applied may be reserved in advance（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).The r

44、means A. various B. bright C. optimistical D. pessimistic（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.For much of its history, psychology has seemed obsessed with human failings and pathology. The very idea of psychotherapy, first formalized by Freud, rests on a view of human beings as troubled creatures in need of repair. Fre
45、ud himself was profoundly pessimistic about human nature, which he felt was governed by deep, dark drives that we could hardly control. The scientists who followed developed a model of human life that seemed to many mechanical if not robotic: humans were passive beings harshly shaped by the stimuli
46、and the rewards and punishments that surrounded them.After World War , psychologists tried to explain how so many ordinary citizens could have agreed with fascism, and did work symbolized in the 1950 classic The Authoritarian Personality by T.W. Adorno, et al. Social psychologists followed on. Some
47、of the most famous experiments proved that normal folk could become coldly insensitive to suffering when obeying “legitimate“ orders or cruelly aggressive when playing the role of prison guard.A watershed moment arrived in 1998, when University of Pennsylvania psychologist Martin Seligman, in his presidential address
