Before you accept quickly and gladly the first job offer that comes your way after college, consider this: your first job will probably be the most important decision you will ever make in your career.

The people you meet are often more important than your paycheck. Making your managers' job easier is a good way to earn their favor, but they shouldn't be your only supporters. The people sitting next to you may be your boss someday or, even better, they may know someone who might want to hire you in a field you actually want to work in. Those office allies are also important sources of inside information. When you are ready to negotiate your next pay raise or promotion, you will want to lean on co-workers who have been in your shoes and may have insights on salary expectations you should be asking for.

Your first job will make you better for your second, third and fourth jobs. Your first job is the final opportunity to take chances, make mistakes, ask stupid questions and still come out smelling like roses. But while you're trying things out, be conscious about what you have learned and how you can apply it later. Even if you haven't landed a job in your desired industry, you should be able to come up with a list of at least three to five valuable skills you've picked up that will impress a future employer. Hiring managers are much more forgiving of those who had to do some job-hopping (跳槽）to get to where they wanted to be — in this economy, who could blame you? — but they're still going to want to know that you can get the job done.

Negotiating your salary early in your career can improve your lifetime earnings. Your first job can be a great testing ground for your negotiation skills. Trust me that no hiring manager will dock you for having the confidence to ask for the salary you believe you deserve so long as you do it right.

24. Who is this article intended for?

A. Those who have taken their first job.

B. Those who are quitting their first job.

C. Those who are looking for their first job.

D. Those who intend to offer others the first job.

25. What does “allies” in Para 2 mean?

A. Your enemies in working.

B. Your supportive colleagues.

C. Your competitors in working.

D. Your bosses or your managers.

26. In which situation could hiring managers blame you?

A. You can't do the job.

B. You ask stupid questions.

C. You ask for a too high salary.

D. You have to do some job-hopping.

27. What is mainly talked about in this passage?

A. The advice on changing a job.

B. The importance of the first job.

C. The way of avoiding job-hopping.

D. The necessity of doing the same job.

C

It's not often you get information about a destination from a heavy metal band, but in Debrecen, Hungary's second largest city, locals are used to having to make a noise to get heard.

Just off the historic center, Roncs bar is a pub that also hosts live music. It has the atmosphere of a student party in an old building that might soon be knocked down.

Roncs is owned by Hungary's best-known heavy metal rock band, Tankcsapda. Sometimes referred to as the “Hungarian Metallica", the band has taken a type of music that is famous worldwide and---through lyrics, album covers, and an annual New Year's party and concert---made it all about their home city.

It's perhaps fitting that Tankcsapda should be seen as ambassadors for Debrecen---the city sometimes needs loud heavy metal rock music to get noticed. “Foreigners think that Hungary is Budapest and there's nothing else," is a familiar saying on Debrecen's streets.

Debrecen has, at times, been more important than the current seat of power, with locals claiming it takes over in times of trouble.

That doesn't quite add up.

Debrecen survived an attack from the Mongols in the 13th century, the Black Death, 150 years of struggle against the Ottomans and numerous conflicts, and yet it has still only briefly been the country's capital twice. This happened for the first time after a short-lived revolution in 1849, and for a second time at the end of World War II.

Today, Debrecen may not be well known to tourists, but that only adds to the charm of this relaxed city. It's a small place; the historical center is sized for strolling (散步) and regular cafe stops. There's also a view of Debrecen's mix of architectural styles, a result of the frequent large fires that back in the 19th century led the city's students to form one of Europe's first-ever fire brigades (消防队).

You can also see traditional weathercocks from the rooftops, featuring Islamic star and crescent moon symbols that once advertised to Ottoman invaders that the city preferred trading to fighting.

Trade meant that Debrecen's skilled people became very successful and the city became famous for---among other things---fine food
