Part-time jobs for 15 and 16 years olds
Waiter / Waitress
A job as a waiter or waitress is a good choice for 16-year-olds. Not only can
one earn $$9-$$12 an hour, but they can also get the tips (小费). Most people that
visit a restaurant don’t just have good food. They come here to relax and have
a good time. Besides serving food quickly, a young waiter who talks to them
politely with a smile on his face will make the diners enjoy their time at the
restaurant.

Work in a library
If one is fond of books, working in a library is another suitable choice. Besides
the pay is good, it offers a lot of free time when students can actually sit down
and finish their homework. So on returning home, they would have time to hang
around with friends or just relax. So working in a library is an excellent
part-time job for teens, especially for school students.

A young boy recently received an unexpected message in the mail from his father
Joseph, who died two years ago.
Rowan’s dad was a hard-working man who wanted to give his son the best life he
could. It was why Rowan’s mother, Julie Van Stone, said Joseph joined the Navy and
went to MIT to get two Master’s degrees.
While at school in Boston, he would often write to Rowan. Even when he left school
and was driving back to Colorado, he would send postcards from each state he stopped
in. Those postcards were sent in 2007. “I remember him saying he had sent 5 or 6,
but Rowan had only got 3 or 4 in the mail. But I never thought anything of it,” Van
Stone said.
Those postcards and pictures are priceless memories for Van Stone and her son,

especially after Joseph passed away from a rare brain disease. Rowan never had a chance
to say goodbye. But, on Saturday, just days before the two-year anniversary of
Joseph’s death, a postcard arrived in the mail. It arrived on March 11, 202X. The
message read: “Hello from Pennsylvania. I love you, and I miss you so much. See you
soon. Love, Daddy.”
Neither he nor his mother knows how it happened, and they may never know. But
they have their own ideas. “I feel like that was the final goodbye that he didn’t
get to say,” Van Stone said. Van Stone says Joseph’s last words to her before he
died were: “Everything is a circle. We will see each other again. All that matters
is love.”

is to their advantage. True friends are there whether you are rich or poor. It is
easy to have many so-called “friends” if you are rich. By this time you should be
able to recognize your friends as the real or the “phoney”.
consider yourself very lucky if you have one true friend. This friend is eager to
help you whenever necessary. He or she knows you would do the same for them. A true
friend is someone you can talk to about any subject or problem. You and your true
friend have good understanding of each other. True friends support you, take your

The interview is an important event in the job-hunting process, because the 20
or 30 minutes you spend with the interviewer may decide whether or not you get the
- 7 -
particular job you want. Therefore, it is important to remerber that your purpose
during the interview may differ from that of the potential employer. You want to make
yourself stand out as a whole person who has personal strengths and should be
considered the right person for the job. It is encouraging to know that the
interviewer’s task is not to embarrass you, but to hire the right person for the
job.
Remember, job hunting is very competitive. Anything you can do to improve your
interview techniques will be to your advantage. The following suggestions may help
you land the most important job.
Your goal in this interview is to make sure your good points get across. The
interviewer won’t know them unless you point them out, so try to do this in a factual
and sincere manner.
Don’t say anything bad about your former employers. If you have been fired from a
job and the interviewer asks about it, be honest.
Show the interviewer that you are interested in the company by asking questions.
Ask about responsibilities, working conditions, promotions opportunities and
benefits of the job you are interviewing for.
If at some point you decide the interview is not going well, do not let your
discouragement show. You have nothing to lose by continuing a show of confidence,
and you may have much to gain. It may be real, or it may be a test to see how you
react to adverse conditions.
Some interviesers may bring up salary early in the interview. At this time, you
may indicate that you are more interested in a job where you can prove yourself that
a specific salary. This politely passes the question back to the interviewer. If
possble, you should negotiate for salary after you have been offered a job and have
completed the paperwork.
12. To get the job you want, during the interview you should _________________ .
A. avoid the interviewer’s questions that are designed to embarrass you
B. remember that you are the best
C. make yourself stand out as the right person for the job
- 8 -
D. tell yourself that you want to get the job
13. If you did not get along with your former employer, you ________________ .
A. should tell a lie to the interviewer
B. should not speak ill of him
C. should refer to him in a factual manner
D. should never mintion it
14. The underlined word “adverse” in the sixth paragraph can be replaced by
_____________ .
A. difficult
