Providing 24-hour services which can be used through, many different ways. It is important to enable us to reach more people, more effectively.”‎ The digital library will, he says, be as important as the physical one, allowing the distant use of the services, making sure that it is never closed to the public.‎ Even before the LoB is complete, the public has been able to go online to visit the Virtual（虚拟的）LoB, designed by Baden, the Birmingham virtual worlds specialists. Not only have the public ‎ been able to learn about LoB, but the virtual one has also enabled those working on the LoB to understand the building and how it will work before it even opens.‎ Two other small Birmingham-based digital companies are working on the LoB projects. Substrat, a digital design company, is developing what it calls an example of an “enlarged reality” project.

When you select your career, there's a whole lot more to it than assessing your skills and matching them with a particular position. If you ignore your personality, it will hurt you long-term regardless of your skills or the job's pay. There are several areas of your personality that you need to consider to help you find a good job. Here are a few of those main areas;‎ ‎ 1) Do you prefer working alone or with other people?‎ ‎ There are isolating（使孤立）jobs that will drive an outgoing person crazy and also interactive jobs that will make a shy person uneasy. Most people are not extremes in either direction but do have a tendency that they prefer. There are also positions that are sometimes a combination of the two, which may be best for someone in the middle who adapts easily to either situation.‎ ‎2) How do you handle change?‎ Most jobs these days have some elements of change to them, but some are more than others. If you need stability in your life, you may need a job where the changes don't happen so often. Other people would be bored of the same daily routine.‎ ‎3) Do you enjoy working with computers？‎ ‎ I do see this as a kind of personality characteristic. There are people who are happy to spend more than 40 hours a week on a computer, while there are others who need a lot of human interaction throughout the day. Again, these are extremes and you'll likely find a lot of positions somewhere in the middle as well.‎ ‎4) What type of work environment do you enjoy？‎ ‎ This can range from being in a large building with a lot of people you won't know immediately to a smaller setting where you'll get to know almost all the people there fairly quickly.‎ ‎5) How do you like to get paid?‎ ‎ Some people are motivated by the pay they get, while others feel too stressed to be like that. The variety of payment designs in the sales industry is a typical example for this.‎ ‎ Anyway, these are a great starting point for you. I've seen it over and over again with people that they make more money over time when they do something they love. It may take you a little longer, but making a move to do what you have a passion for can change the course of your life for ‎ the better.‎ ‎6. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?‎ ‎ A. Isolating jobs usually drive people mad. ‎ ‎ B. Interactive jobs make people shy easily.‎ ‎ C. Extreme people tend to work with others.‎ ‎ D. Almost everyone has a tendency in jobs.‎ ‎7. What does the underlined sentence in paragraph one mean?‎ ‎ A. Before you select your job, you should assess your skills and match them with your position ‎ B. There are more important things than assessing skills and match them with the position when you select job.‎ ‎ C. Nothing is important than assessing skills and match them with the position when you select job. ‎ ‎ D You should ignore your skills when you select job.‎ ‎8. What is the missing word about a job search in the following chart?‎ A. Design. B. Changes. C. Cooperation. D. Hobbies.‎ ‎[来源:学。科。网Z。X。X。K]‎skills Jobs ‎ Environment ‎ Motivation Stability ‎ ‎?‎ ‎9.What is the best title for this passage?‎ A. Lifestyles and Job Pay B. Jobs and Environment ‎ C.
