22、How to Deal with a Friendship Breakup
In an ideal world you would grow old with the people you grow up with, but sometimes it doesn’t happen that way. For various reasons, you may find yourself having to be the one to end the relationship with your best friend. To me, it’s hands down harder than the ending of a romantic connection.【1】
Feel those feelings.
You may find yourself going to call or text that person just from habit. When things happen—good or bad, it will take some time to remember this person is no longer accessible to you, which may bring sadness, hurt, anger, confusion, etc.【2】The breakup with your best friend won’t be any different.
【3】
If you were the one “dumped(抛弃)”, how could you have been a better friend? Pay attention to the things that caused your relationship to end, and then do the work to save it or prevent other friendships from going down the same road.
Delete and block.
It’s attractive to see what’s happening in someone’s life, especially someone who has been a large part of your life for so long.【4】The delete and block buttons are your greatest assets(资产).
【5】It can take weeks or years to adapt to life changing circumstances. But I have found, that as you accept things for what they are, there is an overwhelming sense of peace that eventually washes over you.
A．There is no timeline on grief.
B．Suddenly there is a change in your schedule.
C．Decide why you want to break it off.
D．So how exactly do you grieve(悲伤) or move past “the other breakup”?
E．Reflect on your contributions to the ending of your relationship.
F．All those feelings are natural when a relationship of any kind ends.
G．But until you’re healed, removing them from social media platforms is necessary.

24、 When Jen Harris was laid off from her job at MPC Computers in Idaho last October, she tweeted the message “just been laid off from MPC”, “By the time I left the parking lot, I had a job offer from a friend that had a Web development company in town, “ she told CNNMoney.
It’s difficult to know how many people are actually finding work this way. But it’s obvious from interviews with job-seekers, employers, coaches and managers that the Twitter phenomenon is fundamentally changing the way people search for jobs.
“A lot of companies aren’t advertising jobs in traditional ways,” says Jason Rivera, a graphic artist who teamed up with other San Francisco Twiners “to lead the pink-slip party (失业聚会) movement” for the networking messes. Rivera says Twitter allows companies to easily “follow” potential candidates online, while giving job hunters a backdoor peek at companies where they may be interested in applying for a job.
“It’s a great way to get up-to-the-minute information about a company and its latest products,” Rivera says, “as well as give you a shot at actually talking to a hiring manager on Twitter，as opposed to having your e-mailed resume end up as the 500th in his in-box. At the same time, Twitter gives managers faster, more efficient ways to get through the mess, and that save them money.”
Paul Mabray knows that firsthand. As a chief strategy officer for Napabased VinTank, a wine industry think tank （智囊团），he used Twitter to spot and then practically “follow’’ the 23-year-old job candidate and gifted Twitter, Ashley Bellview. “We got to learn about her personality, her work ethic and her thought process by the information she’d linked to in her tweets and by how she communicated with other people on Twitter,” Mabray says.
【1】Jen Harris is mentioned in the first paragraph to show that ________.
A.Twitter is becoming an important tool for job seekers
B.more people lose their jobs recently
C.it’s easier for IT workers to find jobs
D.there are less jobs than we have expected
【2】Twitter can give job hunters a chance to ________.
A.visit the companies
B.learn more about the companies
C.receive training about the computer operation
D.have a face-to-face talk with the managers
【3】We can know from the last paragraph that Ashley Bellview ________.
A.has a large circle of online friends
B.proves to be a gifted actress
C.is not experienced in wine making
D.is considered a gifted candidate
【4】What would be the best title for the text?
A.The Popularity of Twitter
B.Twitter Helps Find Jobs
C.The Ways People Search for Jobs Are Changing
D.How to Get Jobs on Twitter
