问题     Tight-lipped elders used to say, "It’s not what you want in this world, but what you get." Psychology teaches that you do get what you want if you know what you want and want the right things.
    You can make a mental blueprint of a desire as you would make a blueprint of a house, and each of us is continually making these blueprints in the general routine of everyday living. If we intend to have friends to dinner, we plan the menu, make a shopping list, decide which food to cook first, and such planning is an essential for any type of meal to be served.
    Likewise, if you want to find a job, take a sheet of paper, and write a brief account of yourself. In making a blueprint for a job, begin with yourself, for when you know exactly what you have to offer, you can intelligently plan where to sell your services.
    This account of yourself is actually a sketch of your working life and should include education, experience and references. Such an account is valuable. It can be referred to in filling out standard application blanks and is extremely helpful in personal interviews. While talking to you, your could-be employer is deciding whether your education, your experience, and other qualifications will pay him to employ you and your "wares" and abilities must be displayed in an orderly and reasonably connected manner.
    When you have carefully prepared a blueprint of your abilities and desires, you have something tangible to sell. Then you are ready to hunt for a job. Get all the possible information about your could-be job, make inquiries as to the details regarding the job and the firm. Keep your eyes and ears open, and use your own judgement. Spend a certain amount of time each day seeking the employment you wish for, and keep in mind: Securing a job is your job now.
According to the passage, one must write an account of himself before starting to find a job because______.
选项 A、that is the first step to please the employer
B、that is the requirement of the employer
C、it enables him to know when to sell his services
D、it forces him to become clearly aware of himself
答案D
解析 本题中，A项“那是取悦雇主的第一步”和B项“那是雇主的要求"两项之意明显与文章的意思不符；C项的“自我简介能够使他知道何时推销自己的服务”之意不对，文中是说“你才能明智地计划到哪儿去求职”，不是说何时去求职。从文章第4段的内容可知：同样，如果你想找到一份工作，你就应该取一张纸，写下你的自我简介；为寻找工作制订计划时，应该以自己的实际情况为出发点，因为，只有当你确切地知道你可以提供什么时，你才能明智地计划到哪儿去求职。据此可知，找工作前之所以要写自我简介，是因为自我简介可以让你清楚地了解你自己。D项的“自我简介促使他清楚地了解他自己”与文中的“when you know exactly what you have to offer，you can intelligently plan where to sell your services(只有当你确切地知道你可以提供什么时，你才能明智地计划到哪儿去求职)”的意思相符，因此D项为正确答案。
