Six years ago. something unforgettable happened. My wife, Liz, and I celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary that year. It was a lovely event hosted by our sons for us. Many wonderful friends from the past surprised us with presents and congratulations. Our gift to each other was a driving trip out west. We drove from Ontario into Alberta, then southward into Glacier National Park in Montana, and continued to Yellowstone National Park.
It was a cold spring day, and the Beartooth Highway had opened for the season just days before. Alongside the road, there was still a great amount of snow remaining. The seenery was so impressive that we made numerous stops to record memories with my camera. At roughly the highest point of the highway, I stopped at a lookout to catch the amazing views, with my wife in the center of my camera lens.
There were not many vehicles on the road. Occasionally, cars with energetic young tourists passed by. And then we heard a motorcycle in the distance. The driver of the motorcycle, in rags, parked behind our car. As he approached us, his only words were, “Give me your camera and get over there with your wife." I must admit I felt nervous that we might be robbed where we just created some beautiful memories. Surprisingly, he just took a picture of us, handed back my camera and rode off before we could express our gratitude. The photo he took is one of the most cherished and prized of our trip.
I learned my lesson somewhere I least expected it. God judges us just by our heart, so we should never judge a man by his appearance. If the motorcycle driver reads this story and remembers the situation, we would like to say "thank you" to him.

A CV is a sales document; it conveys the information of what you are looking for and why. Why you are qualified for such work, covering your previous work experience, education, qualification and interests, so effort should be made to make CV as clear as possible in order to sell you most effectively for the post which you are applying for.
Profile
The profile should be a short sentence stating clearly:
•What work you are looking for
• What you have to offer (Why you are qualified)
I believe in starting the CV with a profile. This explains to the employer what you are looking for and summarizes all of the attributes ( 特质) that can be found in detail on the rest of your CV.
The employer knows what they are looking for. If your profile states this in summary, then you are making their job a lot easier and they are more likely to put you in the “yes" pile, as they quickly check a large volume of CVs.
Work Experience
Work experience should come directly after the profile in reverse chronological (反向时间 顺序) order. The first thing an employer will look at is the last job you have had and if you had the relevant experience or achieved something relevant to the job you are applying for in previous roles.
Education
Education should be also in reverse chronological order.
Other Qualifications
If you have attended any training courses or have industrial qualifications they should be entered here. Remember this is a sales document ― list everything you have done here — sell yourself!
Interests
Qualify you hobbies and interests. Do not mention a thing like "I like to go running" without qualifying it as to what has been achieved. For example, it would be better to say “I am part of the Harriers running club.” or “I recently completed the Great North Run."
1.If your profile states your attributes in summary, you'll____.
A.make your job a lot easier
B.be sure to persuade the employer
C.be more likely to get the job
D.fail to pass the interview
2.To write a good CV, you have to _______.
A.tell everything you've experienced in detail
B.place the Profile after the Work Experience
C.use only short sentences to express yourself
D.present the relevant facts to the employers
3.Which is the most concerned by the possible employer?
A.Your interests.
B.Your last job.
C.Your training courses.
D.Family background.

I was a taxi driver, a father of a 16-year-old boy at that time. My son was good at school, and he would graduate from senior high school and go to university, but he was hesitating to choose his future job and he always changed his mind. I did give him advice but he didn’t follow it. And one Monday morning, I stopped at New York Hospital when I found a well-dressed man coming over. He was waving to me. I waited patiently until he jumped into the taxi. “La Guardia Airport, please.” He said.
As always, I wondered about my passenger. So I asked, “What do you do?” “I am working at the hospital.” For some unknown reason, I decided to ask for his help.
“Could I ask a favor?” He didn’t answer at first. But I continued, “I have a son, 16. He’s doing well in school. He will graduate from senior high school. He wants a job this summer. Is there any possibility that you might get him a summer job?” After a minute, he said, “The medical students have a research project. Maybe he could fit in. Have him send me his school records.” He searched his pocket and handed me a card.
That evening, when I got home, I pulled the card from my pocket. “Robbie,” I said proudly, “This could be a summer job for you. Send him your school records.” Robbie took the card and read it out loud, “Fred Plum, New York Hospital.” “Is this a joke?” he said in doubt. After I shouted and threatened to cut off his pocket-money, Robbie promised to send off his grades the next morning.
