　　Dear Students,
　　I am delighted to be your guest.
　　I would like to tell you about myself. I have been a news reporter for the past fifteen years. I chose this job so I could travel the world, but the job has taught me many unforgettable lessons. The work is sometimes difficult. I have seen famines, wars, earthquakes, poverty and death. But I have also seen courage, hope and happiness.
　　In India, I visited a city where there were many homeless children. Some were as young as four years old. They lived in the streets and survived by begging or stealing. But then a wonderful lady called Rosa opened a home for them. Within one year, she was looking after two hundred children. She clothed them, fed them, and taught them. She gave them hope.
　　Another time, I was in Turkey after a terrible earthquake, in one place. I found an old lady whose house was in ruins, her son was missing and rescue workers said there was no chance that he was still alive. But the old lady did not give up hope. For four days, she moved heavy stones one at a time by herself. She did not stop until she found her son. He was alive.
　　Here in China, I met a young boy with a serious condition. He had undergone twenty operations and spent nearly his whole life in hospital. I thought he would be sad, but when I met him, his smile was so warm and welcoming.
　　In life, we need role models that we can admire and learn from. When my life is difficult, I try to remember the courage and goodness of these three people.

　　Are you stuck in a job you don’t like? Many people hold ideas about jobs and careers that are holding them back. Let’s see the truth behind some career myths.
　　A CV (简历) is the only way to get a job.
　　To tell the truth, many employers don’t like or actually read CVs. Some employers would prefer to judge a person after a face-to-face meeting, or give them some part-time work first to see what they are truly like in the workplace.
　　Having an up-to-date CV is important when applying for jobs advertised in the paper, from larger organizations, or when you want to leave some information about yourself for the employers.
　　I have to make my decision now and stick to it.
　　There is a great saying: “Life is a journey not a destination.” Journeys are full of options. You make and change your decisions all the time based on new experiences and information.
　　Yes, you do have to make decisions, but you do not have to be limited by those career decisions by sticking to them. What’s more important is having a go and exploring new things.
　　I can’t get into the work I lise there are too few opportunities.
　　I have no doubt getting into work that you really want to do can be challenging. But I do also believe opportunities exist in most career areas because employment needs change all the time. One strategy I’d suggest if you can’t get your dream job is to go after what you want and grab any opportunity that moves you toward your dream job.
　　It’s the school’s responsibility to talt careers and work.
　　Schools do have a part to play in providing career advice for students, but others also have a responsibility. I would suggest that a student-parent-school partnership approach is a far better way of looking at this. A lot of information is available on the internet, in the newspapers, through relatives and friends.

　　A. is the most important thing    B. is no longer popular

　　A. students should use as many resources as possible when looking for a job
　　B. the school is the main source of career advice to students
　　C. students should rely on relatives and friends to find a good job

　　The piano on which Mozart wrote all of his late worrned home to Vienna for the first time since his death in 1791. The piano will stand in his former Vienna home, now a museum, for two weeks, ending in a concert of the works by Mozart.
　　Mozart bought the instrument from Anton Walter, the most famous piano maker of his time, in 1782. He wrote more than 50 works for the piano on it, many of them in the apartment in Vienna. After Mozart’s death, Constanze, Mozart’s wife, gave the instrument to their elder surv
