A man recently cnnected with me n LinkedIn and sent me this nte: "Let me knw if yu ever need a writer." I guess he's a writer? I dn't knw. But I d knw this phrase "Let me knw if yu ever need a ... "shws up a lt, in my inbx and surely yurs, t. I've cme t think f it as the eight mst deadly wrds in selling neself because that phrase is the death f pprtunity.
Let's cnsider the apprach. These peple are being standffish. Rather than selling themselves, they're shifting the burden nt smene else t make the sale. If I need a writer, I shuld reach ut t them. If I need a stry, I shuld ask them fr an interview. If I need a custmer service slutin, I shuld ask them fr details. "Let me knw if yu ever need a ..." sunds like an invitatin, but it's really a shrug（不在乎）.
Imagine the situatin where I'd assign a stry t the writer wh used the nine wrds, "Let me knw if yu ever need a writer." I wuld have needed a writer. Just any writer. Just anyne wh can string（串） wrds tgether. I wuld have needed t be in a panic, s desperate fr smene t cntribute t ur magazine that I'd stpped thinking abut great writers r gd writers, r even serviceable writers and simply settled fr a writer. This isn't a situatin that exists. The wrld is full f gd ptins! We are nt living in times f shrtage. If we need a jb dne, there are plenty f qualified peple t d it. Our questin is: Wh's the best?
If yu want t create pprtunity fr yurself, answer that questin cnvincingly. The first thing t d is shw smene yu are the pprtunity. Hiring yu can help them. We als need t stp hiding behind urselves. Get ut in frnt! Sell yurself and yur amazing abilities. Understand smene's prblem, and explain exactly why yu are the slutin. Avid saying "Let me knw if yu ever need a ..." Instead, start with: "Let me explain hw I can help yu."
23. What d we knw frm the authr's experience?
A. We'd better start ur wn careers as early as pssible
B. The authr prefers t hire his emplyees n Linkedln.
C. The phrase "Let me knw if yu ever need a ..."is plite.
D. Many peple use the wrng pening sentence t sell themselves.
24.What des the underlined wrd "standffish" mean in Paragraph 2?
A. Frank and pen. B. Unfriendly and prud.
C. Unsure and sensitive. D. Cncerned and cnfident.
25. What can be inferred frm Paragraph 3?

B. There are very few great writers available nwadays.
C. Peple wh can string wrds tgether is a qualified writer.
D. The authr isn't interested in the writer using the nine wrds.

If a pancake culd dream, it might lng fr legs s it culd jump ff yur breakfast plate in pursuit f a better, unchewed life. But legs aren't necessary fr smething as flat as a pancake t jump arund. A grup f scientists have designed a pancake-shaped rbt that can jump several times per secnd and higher than seven times its bdy height. The new rbt named Hp, which swiftly jumps withut feet, is an imprtant cntributin t the sft rbtics.
Many grund rbts mve by rlling r walking. But it's mre efficient fr rbts t jump ver bstacles（障碍物） than t g arund them. Althugh jumping can ffer sme rbts a cmpetitive edge, engineering that ability has been a challenge fr rbtics researchers. Sme sft rbts that stre energy can perfrm a single impressive jump very infrequently. Sme lightweight sft rbts that dn't stre energy can jump frequently but can't jump high r far enugh t successfully crss an bstacle.
Fr inspiratin, the researchers lked t gall midge larvae（瘿蚊幼虫） that miraculusly thrw themselves acrss distances 30 times as lng as their lglike bdies. A gall midge larva bends its bdy and squeezes the liquid in its bdy t ne end, making it rigid（僵硬的）. The accumulatin f liquid builds up pressure, and releasing the pressure sends it saring（飙升）. The rbt's bdy desn't resemble（像） that f a gall midge larva, but it jumps like ne. Its bdy is made f tw small plastic bags printed with electrdes; the frnt bag is filled with liquid and the back ne is filled with the same vlume f air. The rbt uses electricity t drive the flw f liquid, which causes the bdy t bend and generate frce with the grund, resulting in a jump. And the air bag imitates the functin f an animal's、tail、helping the rbt keep a 、stable psitin.
While the rbt is currently restricted t Earth, it might be right at hme explring anther planet. If this is true, the researchers rbt might jump ver dusty rcks and large hles n the mn r Mars, ging where n pancake has gne befre.
27. What des the authr want t shw by mentining a pancake?
A. A pancake's dream t have legs is unrealistic.
B. A rbt is capable f serving a gd pancake.
C. A pancake-shaped rbt can jump withut legs.
D. Research n pancakes advances ur understanding f rbts.
28. What difficultly d rbtics researchers have in develping Hp accrding t Paragraph 2?
A. Hp's aviding an bstacle. B. Hp's mving arund by rlling.
C. Hp's perfrming ne remarkable jump. D. Hp's jumping high and far cntinuusly.
29. What inspiratin d the researchers draw frm gall midge larvae?
A. They are shaped like lgs.
B. They have tails t change psitins.
C. They bend their bdies and increase frce.
D. They are filled with liquid and have rigid bdies.
30. What is the authr's attitude t the future f the new rbt?
A. Intlerant. B. Psitive. C. Indifferent. D. Ambiguus.

I am nt an enthusiastic air traveler. Bustling thrugh airprts, getting checked by security, and standing in lines leave me 61 . But rad trips are different. While the transit time is lnger, pprtunities t get ff the beaten path（常走的路） make it 62 . I see places and interact with peple and cultures that I therwise tend t miss, rediscvering hw far yu can g and hw much yu can experience withut leaving the United States. S, when my sn said he wanted t tur the Kansas State University campus after receiving an admissin ffer, we threw ur luggage and a case f bttled water in the car and 63 the highway. One attractin f traveling at the speed f a car is the transitins. Arizna's Meter Crater（陨石坑）, Tw Guns, and Painted Desert give way t New Mexican villages, then farm twns. Red rcks becme pen plains and grain elevatrs are the nly features 64 abve endless miles f flatness.
That flatness pses an unexpected challenge when there's nthing t step behind. Eating n the rad can als be a challenge. Fr basic fd, Anthny and I relied n Subway sandwich shps, which ffer the same reliable fare（饭菜） at every lcatin. While nt exactly a 65 f lcal cuisine, they didn't leave us regretting lunch when we returned t clcking miles. Salads were curiusly difficult t find in the cllege twn f Manhattan, Kansas, althugh we had n 66 abut the burgers and barbecue.
In cntrast t airprt excursins, which ften feature cnflicts and even cnfrntatins, ur trip was entirely 67 . When yu meet flks in their natural envirnment after hurs f changing scenery, it's easier t remember just hw big the wrld is and t 68 that many f its inhabitants are perfectly happy living 69 , and there's n reasn they shuldn't be.
As it turned ut, the greatest surce f stress was the frequent reminder that my sn changes 70 like he's afraid f missing a sharp turn. Frtunately, that's a travel headache that can be fixed.

A man recently cnnected with me n LinkedIn and sent me this nte: "Let me knw if yu ever need a writer." I guess he's a writer? I dn't knw. But I d knw this phrase "Let me knw if yu ever need a ... "shws up a lt, in my inbx and surely yurs, t. I've cme t think f it as the eight mst deadly wrds in selling neself because that phrase is the death f pprtunity.
Let's cnsider the apprach. These peple are being standffish. Rather than selling themselves, they're shifting the burden nt smene else t make the sale. If I need a writer, I shuld reach ut t them. If I need a stry, I shuld ask them fr an interview. If I need a custmer service slutin, I shuld ask them fr details. "Let me knw if yu ever need a ..." sunds like an invitatin, but it's really a shrug（不在乎）.
Imagine the situatin where I'd assign a stry t the writer wh used the nine wrds, "Let me knw if yu ever need a writer." I wuld have needed a writer. Just any writer. Just anyne wh can string（串） wrds tgether. I wuld have needed t be in a panic, s desperate fr smene t cntribute t ur magazine that I'd stpped thinking abut great writers r gd writers, r even serviceable writers and simply settled fr a writer. This isn't a situatin that exists. The wrld is full f gd ptins! We are nt living in times f shrtage. If we need a jb dne, there are plenty f qualified peple t d it. Our questin is: Wh's the best?
If yu want t create pprtunity fr yurself, answer that questin cnvincingly. The first thing t d is shw smene yu are the pprtunity. Hiring yu can help them. We als need t stp hiding behind urselves. Get ut in frnt! Sell yurself and yur amazing abilities. Understand smene's prblem, and explain exactly why yu are the slutin. Avid saying "Let me knw if yu ever need a ..." Instead, start with: "Let me explain hw I can help yu."

A. We'd better start ur wn careers as early as pssible
B. The authr prefers t hire his emplyees n Linkedln.

If a pancake culd dream, it might lng fr legs s it culd jump ff yur breakfast plate in pursuit f a better, unchewed life. But legs aren't necessary fr smething as flat as a pancake t jump arund. A grup f scientists have designed a pancake-shaped rbt that can jump several times per secnd and higher than seven times its bdy height. The new rbt named Hp, which swiftly jumps withut feet, is an imprtant cntributin t the sft rbtics.
Many grund rbts mve by rlling r walking. But it's mre efficient fr rbts t jump ver bstacles（障碍物） than t g arund them. Althugh jumping can ffer sme rbts a cmpetitive edge, engineering that ability has been a challenge fr rbtics researchers. Sme sft rbts that stre energy can perfrm a single impressive jump very infrequently. Sme lightweight sft rbts that dn't stre energy can jump frequently but can't jump high r far enugh t successfully crss an bstacle.
Fr inspiratin, the researchers lked t gall midge larvae（瘿蚊幼虫） that miraculusly thrw themselves acrss distances 30 times as lng as their lglike bdies. A gall midge larva bends its bdy and squeezes the liquid in its bdy t ne end, making it rigid（僵硬的）. The accumulatin f liquid builds up pressure, and releasing the pressure sends it saring（飙升）. The rbt's bdy desn't resemble（像） that f a gall midge larva, but it jumps like ne. Its bdy is made f tw small plastic bags printed with electrdes; the frnt bag is filled with liquid and the back ne is filled with the same vlume f air. The rbt uses electricity t drive the flw f liquid, which causes the bdy t bend and generate frce with the grund, resulting in a jump. And the air bag imitates the functin f an animal's、tail、helping the rbt keep a 、stable psitin.
While the rbt is currently restricted t Earth, it might be right at hme explring anther planet. If this is true, the researchers rbt might jump ver dusty rcks and large hles n the mn r Mars, ging where n pancake has gne befre.
27. What des the authr want t shw by mentining a pancake?
A. A pancake's dream t have legs is unrealistic.
B. A rbt is capable f serving a gd pancake.
C. A pancake-shaped rbt can jump withut legs.
D. Research n pancakes advances ur understanding f rbts.
28. What difficultly d rbtics researchers have in develping Hp accrding t Paragraph 2?
A. Hp's aviding an bstacle. B. Hp's mving arund by rlling.
C. Hp's perfrming ne remarkable jump. D. Hp's jumping high and far cntinuusly.
29. What inspiratin d the researchers draw frm gall midge larvae?
A. They are shaped like lgs.
B. They have tails t change psitins.
C. They bend their bdies and increase frce.
D. They are filled with liquid and have rigid bdies.
30. What is the authr's attitude t the future f the new rbt?
A. Intlerant. B. Psitive. C. Indifferent. D. Ambiguus.
