阅读理解My cousin, John, is a university student. Last year he went to Italy and stayed there for two months. I was surprised that John was able to have such a long holiday because he never has any money.

“How did you manage it, John” I asked. “I thought you were going to stay for two weeks,”

“It was easy,” John answered. “I got a job.”

“A job!” I exclaimed. “What did you do？”

“I gave English lessons to a grocer,” John answered. “His name is Luigi. We have become great friends.”

“But you’re not a teacher,” I said.

“I told Luigi I couldn’t teach,” John explained. “But he insisted on having conversation lessons. He wanted to practice his English. He has a lot of American customers, so it is important for him to speak English. I spent three hours a day talking to him. In return he gave me a room, three meals a day and a little pocket money.”

“Did your pupil learn much English？” I asked.

“I don’t know,” John said. “But I learned a lot of Italian!”

How to introduce yourself on the first day of work？If you are looking for some ideas, here are some tips for you.

Don't be afraid to ask a lot of questions. You're new and it's better to do something right the first time than have to do it again. Nobody expects you to know everything.

Smile a lot and be as friendly as possible to everyone you meet –no matter what their position is or how important they are! Use your lunch hours to get together with your co-workers. Get to know them and their interests.

Pay attention to the rumours, but don't join them. You don't want to be thought as a gossip.

Don't complain about your boss, any co-workers, or the job you did before. Continue to arrive early and don't rush out of the door at the end of the day.

Keep a positive attitude and an open mind. Your life has changed and you will get used to it.
