2008年12月大学英语四级考试全真模拟试题答案

　　Section C

　　When young people get their real jobs, they may face a lot of new, confusing situations. They find that everything is different from the way things were at school. It is also possible that they will feel uncomfortable in both professional and social situations. Eventually, they realize that university classes can't be the only preparation for all of the different situations that appear in the working world.

　　Perhaps the best way to learn how to behave in the working world is to identify a worker you admire and observe his behavior. In doing so, you will be able to see what it is that you admire in this person. For example, you will observe how he acts when he is in trouble. Perhaps even more important, you will be able to see what his approach to everyday situations is.

　　While you are observing your colleague, you should be asking yourself whether his behavior is like yours and how you can learn from his responses to different situations. By watching and learning from a model, you will probably begin to identify and learn good working habits.
