27、trained to do a number of simple jobs if they know they will get a reward for doing them.Of course, as we know, dogs can be used to guard a house, and soldiers in both old and modern times have used geese to give warning by making a lot of noise when a stranger or an enemy comes near.

34、new employees，they usually place advertisements in newspapers in order to attract as many applicants as possible. But many large well-known companies hire new people frequently without putting advertisements in newspapers, because they already have many resumes（简历）on file. Therefore，it is not always

35、 best to apply only to companies that place ads in newspapers. A person looking for a job is advised to send his resume with a cover letter（附函）to a well-known company even if a position is not then open.

37、son sends a letter and resume to a company that is not then hiring and later sees an advertisement in the newspaper for a job with that company，he should call the company to make certain they have his material on file and will consider him for the position. So, a person has nothing to lose and every
