15、nsion_8.Section A_Although interior design has existed since the beginning of architecture, its development into a 1field is really quite recent. Interior designers have become important partly because of the many functions that might be 2in a single large building. The importance of interior design

We also 4each place to be appropriate to its use. You would be shocked if the inside of your bedroom were 5changed to l

It soon becomes clear that the interior designer s most important basic 6is the function of the particular space. For example, a theatre with poor sight lines, poor sound-shapin

22、k. Are there ways to make going into work every day more palatable?B)Dawn Rosenberg McKay, who writes the career planning guide on A(which is owned by The New York Times), suggests first making a list of all the things you dislike about your job. Try to do it when you have a little distance, like du

23、ring a vacation or on a weekend. Dont cheat and write, “Everything.“ It may feel that way, but that s not helpful.C)“If you hate your boss, write down the things you hate about her,“ Ms. Rosenberg said.

Cohen, author of The Wall Street Professionals Survival Guide(Financial Times Press, 2010), said “a bad job may be a necessary placeholder while you take cla

27、sses or network for a new and more satisfying job.“ And yes, I can hear the groans out there. I know people who have been networking and applying for jobs for a year or more in the hope of moving on. No one said it would be easy in these tough economic times, or quick.F)If youre stuck, are there par

28、ticular tasks in your job that you like? Has your job changed so that youre now doing a lot of things you find mind-numbing or off your career path? Is there any way to talk to your boss about this? But before you approach your manager, “consider whether how you are being treated is unique to you or

29、 shared by your colleagues,“ Mr. Cohen said. As firms downsize, many employees are being forced to take on lots of extra work. If everyone is in the same boat, you may just have to accept it. If you feel, however, that you are unfairly singled out, or if you are truly overwhelmed, think whether ther

30、e is a way you can talk to your supervisor, Ms. Rosenberg said.G)One trouble in many jobs is that workers feel underappreciated or completely unappreciated, Mr. Cohen said. There are some companies where “your boss sees you and your colleagues only as a resource to be used and exploited,“ he added.

31、“Dont expect or look for appreciation to be expressed or for your good work to be acknowledged. In this situation, employee appreciation is an oxymoron.“H)So what can you do?

Ms. Russo

35、 said she had complained a lot to her friends outside work, which might help deal with the pain. But, Ms. Rosenberg, the career columnist, cautioned against grousing too much to your colleagues at work.K)“They say misery loves company, but you dont want set a tone in the office,“ Ms. Rosenberg said.

36、 For one thing, it can get back to the powers that be. And while a little complaining can feel good, too much tends to just compound the negativity. Be aware of further self-sabotage, Ms. Goodwin said. Sloppy performance, talking back to co-workers or managers or showing up latethats what people do

37、when they are unhappy at work. And it can get you fired. You may find out how much you liked, or at least needed, that job once youre forced out. There are times, of course, when you have to leave your job before you have another lined up, especially if its making you physically or emotionally ill,

But he never regrets leaving. “The uncertainty is uncomfortable, but its better than the certainty of that job,“ he said.N)If youre w

41、ondering about quitting your job, Ms. Rosenberg provides a useful quiz to help with the decision on her Web site. And while its not easy in our culture, where we tend to “live to work rather than work to live,“ as the saying goes, everyone I spoke to agreed we could try to change that perspective. D

42、o you have to work 60 hours a week, or can you shorten your work hours and take a dance or memoir-writing class? Or go to a play?O)And beware of idealizing other jobs.
