Have a noisy neighbor is really a common problem. I once had a noise problem with a neighbor. He’d watch out loud movies every night. One night, I had enough of the noise, so I went to my neighbor apartment and talked with him. Therefore, that only made him turn his TV up even loud. The other day, I chatted with him sincere and got to know him better. I also made a joke about what I liked his taste in movies. That night, the noise problem stops. It seemed that all I had to do was get my neighbor see me as a friend, not a enemy.

    When you start a new job, you’ll probably be introduced to a lot of new people on your first day. And it’s important to make a good impression. The following are some practical tips to help you.

Show up early

1. Arriving 5 to 10 minutes early gives you time to settle in—or hit the bathroom if needed. To make sure you can arrive early, give yourself extra time to get ready in the morning and to travel to your destination.

2.

It can be difficult to find the right balance between having an influence on your new role, and disturbing the balance of the delicate office ecosystem. You don’t want to walk in and get into trouble, but you also don’t want to fade into the background, either.

Take plenty of notes

It’s a great idea to bring a small notebook and pen with you on your first day for taking down notes. Don’t be shy about recording information that you know will be useful to you later, like names and passwords. 3.. So taking notes is a great way to keep on top of things.

Watch your body language

You’ve probably read that body language is important for job interviews, but it can also be a valuable tool in creating a lasting impression when you start a new job. On your first day, be careful of conveying powerful body language. 4. And do your best to avoid negative body language, such as yawning, frowning, or standing with your hands in your pockets.

Step away form social media

While on your first day at the office you must have all sorts of feelings—nerves, anxiety, joy, even boredom—resist the desire to share it on social media. When it comes to updating your friends and followers about the status of your newfound employment, always be cautious and assume your bosses are watching. 5..

A. Almost certainly, they will

B. Be positive and show interest

C. Be enthusiastic, but not overbearing

D. Smile often and look people in the eye

E. Body language makes one more successful

F. This might seem easy, but many people don’t do it

G. You’re likely to face data-overload on your first day

    “And this year’s Nobel Prize in Literature goes to ... someone who’s not Haruki Murakami (村上春树) again.”

This was how the BBC started one of its reports about the 2017 Nobel Prizes, even though it was Japanese-British writer Kazuo Ishiguro who won the prize. “To be honest, it’s a bit annoying,” Murakami, 69, said in an interview with The Japan Times when asked how he felt when the public kept making a fuss about his potential (可能的) Nobel win. “This is not a horse race,” he added. And yet, to the public, a horse race is perhaps all it is.

So, the limelight is now once again on Murakami, after he made it onto the final list for the New Academy Prize in Literature 2018. “By combining pop culture with magic realism, he has attracted much attention with his novels and short story collections, and has attracted readers worldwide,” said the New Academy about Murakami.

Indeed, Murakami has a huge fan base in his home country of Japan, especially among young people. These young fans call themselves “Harukists”, as they identify with the “absurdity (荒谬) and loneliness of modern life” described in his novels, according to Business Insider. And in 2005, Murakami started reaching an international readership when his novel Kafka on the Shore appeared on the New York Times’ Top 10 list for book of the year, which was also believed to be the time when the world’s interest in Murakami’s Nobel win first began to surface.

But Murakami himself couldn’t care less about whether he wins the prize or not. “If you’re a writer and you have readers, you have everything. You don’t need critics or reviews.” he told The New Yorker.

However, if winning the prize is all that it takes to end this “horse race” and put Murakami out of his misery (煎熬), let’s just hope that when the winner is announced on Oct 12, the BBC’s story will open with, “This year’s New Academy Prize in Literature goes to ... Haruki Murakami.”

1.According to paragraph 2, what made Haruki Murakami annoyed?

A. Losing the horse race.

B. Not winning the Nobel Prize.

C. Being interviewed by the media.

D. Over focus on his potential Nobel win.

2.We learn from the passage that Haruki Murakami _____.

A. is especially popular among the elders

B. is more famous abroad than at home

C. became internationally acceptable in 2005

D. combines pop culture with serious literature

3.What can we learn from Murakami’s words in paragraph 5?

A. He puts his readers in the first place.

B. He cares much about people’s reviews.

C. He considers winning the Nobel Prize a top honor.

D. He is very disappointed about not winning the Nobel Prize.

4.What is the writer’s attitude towards Murakami winning the Nobel Prize?

A. Favorable. B. Uncaring.

C. Changing. D. Doubtful.
