A
A drunken burglar（盗贼） in the Orrell Park area of Liverpool, ended up leaping out of a window after a 10-year-old girl asked him to prove he was a superhero.
The drunken thief who pretended he was Superman to stop a child raising the alarm has been caught after he leapt from the apartment building in his pants to make the girl believe his words.
Thief Ethan Adamson, 25, told police that he had broken into a fifth-floor flat after a drinking session, believing it was empty.
But he was horrified when the owner’s 10-year-old daughter woke up while he was there.
From his hospital bed, the thief told reporters, “To keep her quiet, I told her I was really Superman and I’d soon be flying off back to my secret headquarters.”
“She called my bluff and told me, ‘If you’re Superman, show me you can fly or I’ll scream’”
“I had no choice so I stripped to my pants to look more like a superhero and went to the window. I saw another roof below and I thought I could make it but it turned out to be a lot further down than thought. I know it doesn’t make sense but it did to me when I was drunk.”
Police later found him on the roof in just his yellow pants, covered in cuts and bruises after a baffled neighbor heard his cries of pain.
He now faces seven years behind bars for burglary.
Police spokesman Frank Armado said, “He was in quite a serious state and couldn’t move until we got up there using ladders. He was treated for his injuries and we got him some fresh clothes, before taking him to hospital where he is being kept under guard until he is well enough to be arrested.” 1.

People are seeking for opportunities that will assist them in reaching their goals. Marketing yourself is when there is a demand for you and your services that will help you achieve your goals. Though when people talk about marketing, they usually think that this is about producing a sale. But, it does not necessarily have to be.
If you are an employee then you want your boss to take your ideas, and if you are on a job hunting then you want to find a good position. So in reality, marketing really leads to sale. So marketing yourself means you are simply “selling” yourself! The common problem in marketing yourself is that most people think that it is unpleasant to market themselves. They think that marketing concerns only to a business.
C. 4：30AM
D. 7：00AM
Of course, this is absolutely not true. People who want to attain the success they desire must promote themselves.
Marketing yourself is a useful tool. The better you market yourself, the more opportunities you will have. Marketing yourself does not really mean telling every person how beautiful and wonderful you are. It means letting your prospective employer know that you exist or you can do something better.
There are actually several different ways of marketing yourself. But there are only two primary ways that you can carry out. The first is to find ways to reach out to others and the second is to construct ways in order for the people to find you and make connection with you.
To reach out and touch the lives of others, you have to be a good person and a good employee. In that way your good reputation will follow naturally. Have a brief and concise message that you can share with others. When you market yourself, you tell people who you are and what you can do for others. Plan well and practice your message.
In constructing ways for the people to notice and make connection with you, you must be open to them. Communication is a great opportunity to make an impact especially when you market yourself. You also communicate by what you are wearing. Know the appropriate dress code and have plenty of time to decide what you will wear. Just remember to make a great first impression! 8. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Marketing yourself is a business
B. The subject of marketing yourself.
C. The ways of marketing yourself. D. The problems of marketing yourself. 9. In order to market yourself well, you can do these things EXCEPT ______. A. be open to others C. wear appropriately
B. praise yourself
D. have a brief and clear message
10. From the passage, we can infer that people good at marketing themselves must be______. A. social
B. humorous
C. hardworking D. beautiful
