答案： 36. E 上文介绍了可以通过让亲密的朋友或家人用三个形容词来形容你的方法来确定自己的软技能。E项“此外，做一个性格测试可以帮助你识别它们”表明可以通过性格测试了解自己的软技能，承接上文，E项中的recognize与空后的identify是同词复现，them指代your soft skills。
37. A 本段主要介绍了软技能与硬技能的区别。空前提到软技能是天生的，不针对某一具体的工作，而硬技能通常通过教育和培训习得。故A项“它们通常用于特定的任务”符合语境，A项中的They指代空前的Hard skills。
38. F 前文提到软技能很难教授，因此雇主会倾向于选择具备较强软技能的求职者，下文介绍了提升软技能的方法。F项“虽然很难，但获得或提升你的软技能是可能的”与上文构成转折关系，符合语境，其中的hard呼应上文的harder。
39. B 空前是提升软技能的第一步。B项“然后，设定合理的改进目标”介绍第二步，承上启下，符合语境。空后是对B项的举例说明，B项中的targets呼应空后的goals；B项中的Then呼应空前的First。
40. D 空后的“Let them know which soft skills you are working on and ask them for suggestions on how to improve them in the workplace”提到和某些人沟通，征求提升软技能的建议。D项“你也可以和你的经理谈谈，征询意见”引出下文，符合语境。下文的them指代D项中的your managers，D项中的ask for advice对应下文中的“ask them for suggestions”。
