sistersent me some details for a position in a startup.The job was a seemingly perfectmix of my skills and interests,so I jumped at it.However,soon after I joined the company,its model changed to focus on K12education,and everything about my position changed.I was asked to take on thecompletely different roles of selling contents to teachers and training people.Ihad no experience in sales,training or education.On top of that,I m an introvert(内向的人)I felt more a little outside my comfort zone.I knew I wanted to grow as an individual and make a serious impact on the company.I told myself that everything feels overwhelming at first and I should at least try.In a way,I felt like I didnt have a choice.I knew jumping out of the nest wasthe right thing for me,even though it felt pretty awful.I was fortunate to be surrounded by very helpful people,both at work and athome.My boss never asked if I thought I could do it;she asked if I was interestedin trying.I spent hours researching my companys products.I asked lots of questions andspoke to so many teachers that there were soon more good experiences than difficultones.I looked for opportunities to put in extra effort.The more I did,the betterI felt.Over time,I discovered that the job was something I could do and liked doing.It was incredibly rewarding to see the company grow.I also learned its importantto take risks and accept new opportunities,even when youre not sure if youll do well.I dont think theres anything worse than failing to try.Im so gladI tried,and it surely paid off.【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文。“我”曾经是某旅游杂志的编辑，但“我”需要更具有挑战性的工作，所以“我”听从了姐姐的建议跳槽到了一家新公司。可是不久，这家公司的模式改变，内向的“我”被安排到了营销岗位。在老板的鼓励下，“我”不断尝试，努2力工作，终于取得了良好的业绩。1Why did the author want to change her job?AShe intended to

B(2020陕西部分学校摸底)While we may think it feels good to complain,complaining has some bad effects associated with it.Why isnt complaining beneficial?Research shows that it connects our brainwith negativity.The brain is designed to work efficiently.This means that whenwe repeat a thought,negative or positive,the nerve cells form a bridge betweeneach other to pass information in a higher speed.Therefore,the next time we havea similar type of thought,it is more easily passed.This explains why certain thoughtpatterns become habits.Yet the harmful effects dont stop there.A study shows that complaining causesthe hippocampus(海马),which plays a vital role in problemsolving,to becomesmaller.In addition to causing brain damage,complaining also releases a stress hormone:cortisol(皮质醇),a kind of chemical the body produces when we meet with some danger.Constantly having a high level of cortisol results in high blood pressure,high bloodsugar,and lower immunity(免疫力)The ill effects of our complaining arent just limited to ourselves:they alsoinvolve those around us.We tend to mirror the moods of our friends.For this reason,we should be cautious about having stubborn complainers in our circle of companions.The best way to deal with constant negativity is to develop a sense of gratitude.Just like complaining acts as a poison,gratitude acts as a medicine.Research showsit lowers cortisol levels by 23 percent,as well as reduces blood pressure and bloodsugar.It also decreases tiredness and depression.Gratitude is the perfect curefor complaining,a behavior that steals our brain power,happiness and physical wellbeing.What have you observed about the effects of complaining in your own life or inthe lives of others?Have you noticed that when you are grateful,you feel betterall round?Please share your thoughts in the comments section below.【解题导语】研究发现，抱怨与消极性密切相关，除了导致脑损伤，抱怨还会释放皮质醇，持续高水平的皮质醇会导致高血压、高血糖和免疫力低下，而感恩却与之相反，会带来很多益处；人们在生活中要少点抱怨，多些感恩。5What do Paras.23 mainly talk
