Losing a job is indeed very depressing. A sudden break to the regular monthly income can actually disrupt the life in a very bad way. However, nothing is permanent in life and you can do some things to deal with your unemployment.
First of all, don’t panic. Things do happen and they’ll continue to happen unexpectedly. Don’t get extremely discouraged and then land into depression. Believe in yourself and stay calm. Believe this is a temporary phase which is going to get over soon and thus there is no need to worry so much.
Once your mind is calm, try to analyze your situation. Why were you unemployed? Were you really able to do that job? Did you ever like it? Were you financially satisfied? Try to find answers to these questions. If you feel the job wasn’t of your choice, be happy! You no longer need to work there now. Soon, you’ll be finding a new job which will be of your interest.
Once you know the job is no longer yours, don’t complain. Think of other ways to earn money. Keep yourself very active. Call the people who can help you out or can guide you properly. Update your resume and practise interviewing skills. Look out for vacancies(空缺) in the newspaper and on the Internet daily and give as many interviews as you can.
After you’ve analyzed the alternatives, try to improve on your weak areas. If you feel you lack somewhere when it comes to communication, attend some lectures on the subject. If you need some technical training in your field, go ahead and complete a course that will improve your technical skills. Also, socialize with people and make your social life rich.
Lastly, try to promote your spirits and be happy. Don’t be nervous because things will surely fall into the right place!

課時作業(yè)(二十五)
Ⅰ.1.D as if to see=as if he was to see。
2.D be set in 意為“以……為背景”;once published=once it is published,是省略用法,it與publish是被動關(guān)系。
3.B 此題考查短語意思及用法。get down to doing sth.=set out to do sth. 著手做某事;set off 動身;set up 建立。
4.D desire后可跟復(fù)合賓語,其補(bǔ)足語用不定式短語。suggest可構(gòu)成suggest one's doing,suggest that…或It is suggested that…結(jié)構(gòu),不可構(gòu)成suggest sb. to do sth.結(jié)構(gòu); hope可構(gòu)成hope to do sth.,hope that…或It's hoped that…結(jié)構(gòu),不可構(gòu)成hope sb. to do sth.結(jié)構(gòu)。
5.D hold 意為“容納”,符合句意。
6.A 考查省略句。所填部分作應(yīng)答句的方式狀語,因主從句的主語一致,都是the workers,因此可以將從句的主語和謂語中的助動詞、系動詞或情態(tài)動詞省略,而且從句謂語動詞tell與主語workers是被動關(guān)系,故選A。
7.B 由句意“我沒有看到過比這更好的”,知應(yīng)選better。
8.B 句意為:公司決定在財務(wù)部雇用一名新職員,在辦公室辭退兩名職員。take on 呈現(xiàn),雇用某人,承擔(dān);take up 拿起,占據(jù);take over接管;take off脫衣,起飛。
9.D 考查時態(tài)與省略句。由前面is supposed to…soon可知應(yīng)用一般將來時。will是will make his visit的省略,即“我不知道他是否會來俱樂部”。
10.B 考查介詞。本句如果改成:Sometimes it is not easy to seek proper answers to food safety problems.就容易解此題了。answer后接賓語時要用介詞to。
11.D 考查介詞。have sth. in common with sb. 與某人有共同點;dance to 跟著樂曲跳舞。
12.C 考查情態(tài)動詞。dare作情態(tài)動詞,此處為它的過去式。
13.B 考查名詞辨析。人們都說開公司很容易,可是實際情況并非如此。這里用reality表示“現(xiàn)實”與前面呼應(yīng):實際情況不一樣。
14.A 考查動詞時態(tài)的用法。句意為“你為什么這么著急?我的電腦癱瘓了,我的論文沒完成。”,由此可以得知謂語動詞應(yīng)該用現(xiàn)在完成時,essay作主語,是被動語態(tài)。而恰巧動詞是leave,leave作“使”講,其用法是leave sth. undone,名詞和過去分詞之間是被動關(guān)系,故選A。
15.C 此處that引導(dǎo)的賓語從句作demands的賓語,故從句中用“(should)+動詞原形”表虛擬,故選C。
Ⅱ.16.as be honoured as意為“被譽(yù)為, 被授予……的稱號”。
17.married 根據(jù)當(dāng)?shù)亓?xí)慣,他13歲結(jié)婚。
18.where 該空引導(dǎo)非限制性定語從句修飾England,且在從句中作地點狀語,故填where。
19.for fight for equal rights為平等的權(quán)利而斗爭。
20.independence 根據(jù)“fight for an end to the British rule”而判斷此處指“結(jié)束英國統(tǒng)治而獲得獨立”,故填independence。
21.However 根據(jù)前后的轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系可判斷填However。
22.in give in屈服。此處意為“英國政府不得不屈服”。
23.Unfortunately 不幸的是,甘地被槍殺了。由此判斷填Unfortunately。
