   What should you think about when trying to find your career? You are probably better at some school subjects than others.  These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career. A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work.  So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other hand, you may not have any specially strong subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. A knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.

Your school may have taught you skils, such as typing or technical drawing, which you can use in your work. You may be good at metalwork or cookery and look for a job where you can improve these skills. If you have had a part-time job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else,you may have learned how to get to work on time,to follow rules and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop,for example. Just as important,you may become interested in a particular career you see from the inside in a part-time job.

Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be all thumbs when you handle tools;perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a number of figures. It is better to face any weaknesses than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record,for instance,may not be too good,yet it is an important part of your background. You should not be apologetic(道歉的)about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work.

   Many people want to achieve success in life, but it's easier said than done because there are so many distractions(分散注意力的事). Then how to be successful? 【小题1】

   Everyone sleeps. However, taking the time to develop a sleep habit is probably the last thing on your mind and some sleep advice simply can't be forgotten. 【小题1】.

Watch TV until you fall asleep

It has nothing to do with what you watch-TV news isn't a better pre-sleep choice than TV series. 【小题2】. The bright light keeps you awake all night. So even if you nod off(in front of the TV, for example),you probably won't stay asleep for long.

Sleep with pets

【小题3】. They get comfortable, and then they move. This goes on all night, and whether you admit it or not, it interrupts your ability to get the level of sleep needed to feel rested.

Eat fatty, heavy foods when it is too close to bedtime
Heartburn strikes(侵袭)anyone of any age, but it's the most common GI disorder(胃肠失调)in older adults. If you've ever tried to go to sleep after eating a fatty meal, you've probably found the discomfort of your stomach preventing you from falling asleep or staying asleep.
【小题4】
Remember how poorly you sleep when you have a fever-turning over and over again, never really feeling rested? Well, heavy exercise too close to bedtime has the same effect-it raises your body temperature so that your sleep is disturbed until your body temperature drops to normal, which may take several hours.
Accept snoring(打呼噜)as normal sleep behavior
Snoring may seem as common as breathing, but it's considered the biggest sleep killer, and it's linked to several causes; sleeping on your back, being overweight, having a cold, drinking, or taking drugs. 【小题5】. For the snorer,it disturbs sleep by awakening him/her every so often in order to breathe normally. For the partner, the noise can be unbearable.
A.Lower your body temperature before bedtime
B.Here are some suggestions you'll need to follow
C.Rather it's the TV's bright light that is the criminal
D.Exercise heavily when it is too close to bedtime
E.Here are some bad habits you need to get rid of
F.Most seriously, it can be caused by a dangerous illness
G.Pets sleep most of the day, and they move a lot when sleeping
