A new study supports the view that jobs aren't simply a love-at-first-sight deal. Rather, they say that achieving passion for your work is something you can develop over time.

Unlike the main way of thinking that you'Il only achieve passion for your work through finding the right fit with a line of work - what the researchers call "fit theory" , the researchers say you can learn to love your job and find meaning in it gradually(“developing theory").

We probably hear and think a l.t more about "fit theory" than “developing theory" because we've become used to it. "Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work," said Steve Jobs. “And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'II know when you find it. "

Chen and colleagues examined some students' career attitudes and expectations with regard to "fit theory"and "developing theory". "People can achieve similar levels of passion at work by accepting either the fit or develo-ping theory. The key difference lies in how these results are reached : fit theorists(理論家) tend to self-select into lines of work that fit them from the start, while developing theorists grow into that fit over time. "

Fit theorists tend to value enjoyment at the expense of good pay, while developing theorists are willing to let enjoyment take a back seat to other goals, safe in the knowledge that they'll grow into the role and find enjoyment over time.

Everyone has moments of being bored with their work,but it's important to keep your thoughts focused on the bigger picture, your Iong-term goals , and whv you took the role in the first place.

1.According to the "fit theory" , a person will_________.

A. treat his job as a great deal

B. try to seek passion for a job

C. find the meaning in his job slowly

D. learn to achieve his dream gradually

2.The writer quoted Steve Jobs' speech to prove____________.

A. the romantic idea of "fit theory"

B. the difficulty of finding passion for jobs

C. the great pursuit of satisfying jobs

D. the influence of "fit theory" on the business

3.If you hate your job , you are advised to___________.

A. consider your situation as a whole

B. try other new jobs as soon as possible

C. consider your role in your work first

D. start your work from the beginning again

4.What might be the best title for the passage?

A. You Will Have Passion for Your Work

B. You Can Learn to Love Your Job

C. You Will Finally Achieve Your Job Goal

D. You Can Get Enjoyment from Your Work

At any given time, hundreds of postcards are in transit (運(yùn)輸中) across the world as strangers communicate through a movement called Post-crossing.

Emma Delaney says it’s a sad day when there isn’t a postcard in her mailbox. She doesn’t have a bunch of friends travelling overseas at the moment —— she’s just really active in the underground hobby of Postcrossing.

“I’ve sent over 3,000 postcards, but I’ve been doing it for close to seven years,” she says. “My husband, generally appreciative of my hobby, is sometimes frustrated by the amount of cardboard hanging around the house or in my car.”

Postcrossing is a hobby where strangers send each other postcards across the world. You register on the website, list your interests and preferences for postcards, then receive an address of a stranger on the other side of the world to send a postcard to.

“I tend to send a lot of postcards of the local area because people are interested in where you’re from and what you do,” Emma says.

From Uzbekistan to Belarus and Kazakhstan to Moldova, Emma has a growing collection of photos from around the world. The postcards have helped shape her international travelling too. “I didn’t travel overseas until I was 32 and a lot of the locations we chose for our honeymoon were selected because of the postcards I’d received.”

“Some people see sending mail as being a bit boring and unfashionable, but Postcrossing is popular and lots of people are fascinated that I do it.,”

The Postcrossing project has just celebrated its eighth birthday and has over 400,000 active members in 215 countries. The group says they’ve delivered over 18 million postcards.

And while postal workers aren’t supposed to read people’s postcards, Emma says she’s happy for them to do so at her post office in Shellharbour. She even encourages her correspondents to say hello to the Australia Post staff.

“It’s a hobby that I continue to do because I find it enjoyable and relaxing.”
