You should read and keep up with events. You should spend time with your family and take care of your my

33、riad of daily chores. At work, its not enough to be qualified for your job. You have to have excellent people skills and problem-solving abilities. Your IQ had better be high, and you should welcome anything and everything new. Commitment and enthusiasm are the bottom line. At home, its not enough t

34、o have money in the bank. There are children to raise, hobbies to encourage and daily routines to organize. Contacts between home and the day care center or school are another priority. You have to keep up your friendships and your family relationships. You have to have empathy for everyone around y

35、ou. You have to have time. How do we catch a guilty conscience? Finns in business asked family counselor Hannu Kuukka from the Helsinki parish services. “A bad conscience comes from conflicting pressures, from the feeling that you just cant manage everything that you consider important. Frustration

36、and stress are the result. “ “Our internalized roles-the role models that we subconsciously follow-also contribute to the problem. Throughout our lives, we carry with us the part we played in our own family. This can be a source of encouragement and support, or the seeds of a bad conscience. “ What

37、can we do for a bad conscience? “Our failures tend to become exaggerated in our minds, especially if someone close to us verbalizes them. You have to set priority. Couples should decide together if one of them is going to concentrate on work and the other on family. The couple is the foundation of t

38、he home, so they have to find common ground,“ comments Hannu Kuukka. At work, you spend your time with adults, and you can excel in your own field. Are you more comfortable at work than at home? This is a common feeling-and another source of guilt. “It is not unusual for relationships at work to be

39、easier and more straightforward than those at home. The everyday life of a family with children can be exhausting. And today, with growing competition and more friction at work, even these relationships have become more difficult,“ says Kuukka. 51 The purpose of the first paragraph is to _. （ A） ite

40、mize what people have to accomplish in their lives （ B） brief a real but tough situation for couples to cope with （ C） explain why some people long for a break of routine （ D） show how a full-time job goes against a family life 52 According to the author, the decisive factor for one to perform well

42、up （ C） one simply cant afford the time （ D） its impossible to share feelings with everyone around 54 As suggested by Kuukka, the right way to approach the problem is to _. （ A） exchange role models between the couple in the same boat （ B） look at the same problem from a different perspective （ C） t

43、urn a deaf ear to whatever other people would say （ D） get the couples priorities right to ensure a rewarding life 55 From the last paragraph, it can be safely inferred that _. （ A） work relationships are as difficult to keep up as family relationships （ B） working parents usually feel more comforta

On finding its prey by scent,

45、 the reptile flings itself at the victim and inflicts several rapid bites. Like most other venomous snakes, the taipan uses its venom sparingly. As they dont regard man as prey, they have been known to strike and bite without releasing any venom at all, leading to no adverse effects. Although the ta

46、ipan is the deadliest Australian snake, few snakes can match the sinister reputation of the eastern tiger snake (notechis scutatis). However, recent observations indicate that their ferocity and aggressiveness are not as bad as once thought and that actually they are fairly timid. There are differen

47、t types of tiger snakes found in Australia but they are all highly poisonous and should be avoided. Until recently tiger snakes held the record for the most snakebite fatalities (now overtaken by the eastern brown snake). The body of the tiger snake has cross bands of yellow or cream on a background

48、 of grey, green or brown and this is what gives them their name. They have a heavy, build and can grow up to 1.8 metres. In the wild they are mainly a swamp dwelling species and are often found around waterways. Their habitat is now threatened by the clearing of such areas for development. They have

49、 been known, though, to climb into surrounding vegetation to a height of about 1 metre. They mainly feed on frogs and mice as adults, but will take the odd bird or lizard. Another highly dangerous Australian snake is the copperhead (austrelaps superbus). Although it is non-aggressive, if provoked it raises its forebody from the ground and flattens its neck, angry and hissing, ready to strike
