The Necklace is a short story by Guy de Maupassant. It tells the story of Madame Mathilde Loisel and her husband Charles. Mathilde always imagines herself in a high social position with wonderful jewels. However, she has nothing and marries a low-paid clerk who tries his best to make her happy.

Through lots of begging at work, Charles is able to get two invitations to the Ministry of Public Instruction Party. Mathilde refuses to go, for she has nothing to wear. Her husband is upset to see her sadness. Using money that he saved to buy a rifle, he gives Mathilde 400 francs and asks his wife to buy a dress that suits her. Mathilde goes out and buys a dress. However, even with the clothes, Mathilde is still not happy as she has no jewels to wear with it. The couple does not have much money left, so her husband suggests Mathilde borrow something from her friend, Madame Jeanne Forestier. Mathilde picks out the fanciest diamond necklace that she can find. After attending the Ministry of Public Instruction Party, Mathilde discovers that she has lost the necklace.

Mathilde and her husband forage everywhere, but the necklace is not to be found. So they have to take out loans (貸款) from generous friends to buy a diamond necklace that looks just like the one that was lost. It takes them ten years of hard labor to pay the loans back. Towards the end, Mathilde takes a walk, recalling her past and the night when the necklace was lost. Suddenly, she comes across Madame Jeanne Forestier. Mathilde confesses (坦白) about that night and how she worked so hard to return her necklace. Madame Jeanne Forestier, deeply moved, tells Mathilde that the one she borrowed was not made of real diamonds, and that it was fake (假的) and worth at most 500 francs.

There are many ways to find a job. It can be as easy as walking into a neighborhood store to look at its announcement board. Local stores often have areas where people can put small signs telling what kind of service they need or can provide. Such services include caring for children or cleaning houses.

Or job searchers can look in the newspaper. Local newspapers have employment announcements placed by companies seeking workers.

Another popular tool for finding jobs is the Internet. For example, people in four hundred and fifty cities around the world can use the Craigslist website to buy objects, meet people or find a job. Craigslist says that it receives two million new job listings each month.

Another useful way to find a job is through a college or university. For example, students at the University of Texas in Austin can go to the Career Exploration Center to get help in finding a job. Of course, looking for a job requires knowing what kind of work you want to do. For example, there is a book called What Color is Your Parachute (降落伞)? by Richard Bolles. This book has been helping people choose a career since it was first published in 1970.

Some experts also help people find jobs. Susan W. Miller owns a company called California Career Services in Los Angeles. She says her company helps people find jobs by first helping them understand their strengths, goals and interests. Then she provides them with methods and resources to help them find the right job.

28. What can you do on the Craigslist website?

A new device (裝置) works like a solar panel, except it doesnt harvest energy from the sun. It captures energy from the cold night sky.

A prototype (雏形) of the device produced enough electricity at night to power a small light bulb. A bigger version might one day light rooms or charge phones. It could also power electronics in remote or low-resource areas that lack electricity.

The device makes use of the temperature difference between the earth and outer space to create electricity. As long as one side of it is cooler than the other, the generator can produce electricity. The cooler side faces the sky and is attached to an aluminum plate. That plate is closed tightly under a transparent (透明的) cover and surrounded with insulation (隔热材料) to keep out heat. The bottom of the generator is attached to an exposed aluminum plate. That plate is warmed by the local air. At night, the top plate can get a couple of degrees Celsius cooler than the bottom of the generator.

Researchers tested a 20-centimeter prototype one clear December night in Stanford University, California. The generator produced up to 25 milliwatts of power per square meter of the device. That was enough power to light a small light emitting diode, or a LED bulb. Further improvements might increase its production to at least 500 milliwatts per square meter. The system might need more insulation around the cool, top plate to do that.

“The device could also help power remote weather stations or other environmental devices,” says Aaswath Raman. He is a material scientist who works on the device at the University of California, Los Angeles. “This may be useful in polar regions where people cant see sunlight for months,” Raman says. “If you have some low-power devices and you need to power them through three months of darkness, this might be a way. ”

32. What does the author mainly talk about the device in Paragraph 3?

A. Its application fields. B. Its important effects.

C. Its working principle. D. Its developing process.

33. How can researchers make the device produce more electricity?

A. By putting more insulation around the top plate.

B. By covering the top plate with a transparent cap.

C. By attaching the bottom plate to a warm plate.

D. By using it in extremely cold and clear nights.

34. What is Ramans attitude towards the new device?

A. Critical. B. Doubtful. C. Negative. D. Hopeful.

35. What does the text mainly talk about?

A. Differences between a solar panel and a new device.

B. A device using the cold night sky to produce electricity.

C. A device bringing new hope for those in the cold night.

D. Temperature difference between the earth and outer space.

As far as Im concerned, hard work is most important than intelligence. Firstly, as known to all, a knife will not be sharp if not sharpen regularly. The same is true of studying. In other words, unless you dont study hard and only depend on your intelligence, perhaps you can stand out in the beginning. But it is no doubt that you will fall behind those whom work hard in the end. Secondly, most great people were not smart at the school, but they get lots of achievements through hard work. However, it proves that hard work can help you to make progresses in study and become a great person.
