Interviews are part of most people' s working life. Here are some handy tips on how to do your best at interviews.Interviews are part of most people' s working life. Here are some handy tips on how to do your best at interviews.
Don' t mistakenly think that your interviewers want to know about you. They are interested only in that small part of you that can or can' t do the job they have advertised.
sadly , many of us are so flattered by questions such as "Tell me about your strengths" that we take it as an invitation to chatter and make fools of ourselves.
Never think that lots of enthusiasm is enough. sit down with a pen , paper and the job description ，and work out the skills and qualities they are looking for.
Itemize your technical or professional skills as they match the requirements of the job. Then recall an incident to illustrate each of these skills. When you have done this
, you will be in a position to begin justifying your ability and suitability.
Remember that very few questions are lightly asked.
If your interviewers are interviewing more than a couple of candidates , they have probably worked up a list of eight to ten questions to put to each person. In well-organized businesses , they will be making marks in their notebooks as you give your replies. An imprecise answer will show that you do not appreciate the value of the question. s0 think through how you can give strong
, specific answers to questions such as "Can you work well in a team or on your own or in a small business?"
Avoid giving them reasons to exclude you. You want to appear the sort of person who will help out in a crisis. make the tea sometimes even if it is not your job. be tolerant of others. whatever their age ,sex , race or religion ,
and be easy to manage. Don't attack your previous employer as it suggests you might attack your now one.
Try asking them a few questions. If you ask what sort of projects you would be likely to start work on ,you might then get back some very useful feedback. If they start opening Up
to you , you can get into a more equal conversation and may have an opportunity to show that you can deal with the sort of situation they are describing.

A. prepare for a job interview
B. do their best at a job interview

A. the interviewer and the applicant' s previous boss may be birds of a feather
B. a man who speaks ill of somebody else in the back is not reliable and trustworthy
C. the interviewer may think that， if one attacks his previous employer now , he might attack his new one later
33. Why is it good for the applicant to ask the interviewer a few questions? ( )
A. He can have more chance of demonstrating his ability.
B. He can learn more about the interviewer' s likes and dislikes.
C. He can make the interview run in the way in his favor.
34. According to the passage , which of the following is true? ( )
A. Y ou should answer every question raised by the interviewer as thoroughly as possible.
B. You should try your best to flatter the interviewer and never disagree with him.

Body Language in the United States
1.Most people shake hands and make eye contact when they meet people for the first time.Among very good friends,a woman may give another woman a little hug,and a man may kiss a woman quickly on the cheek.Males don't usually hug one another,however,this is changing.Men usually shake hands with the right hand.Sometimes they use the left hand to either cover the handshake or lightly hold the other person's arm.This shows greater warmth and friendship.Most people wave hello or good-bye by extending the arm,palm facing outward,and twisting the hand at the wrist.Another way is to raise the arm,palm outward,and move the whole arm and hand back and forth.This is important to know because in many other countries,the same movements mean"no".
2.When people are waiting in a public place,such as the post office,they usually form lines.Some people get angry and complain if someone pushes their way into a line or jumps ahead of other people.Moreover,many women like men to open doors for them.They also like men to give up their seats on public transportation.However,some women do not like this type of behavior.They feel that men and women should be treated in the same way.
3.In the United States,it's important to make direct eye contact in business and social situations.If you don't make eye contact,people will probably think that you are bored or not interested.If there is silence in these situations,people usually try to make conversation.Periods of silence make many people uncomfortable.People in the United States usually stand about one arm's length away from each other while talking or standing together.This space is called"the comfort zone".
4.In the United States,mothers sometimes show that they are angry with children by shaking an index finger at them.People may show that they like children by patting them on the top of the head.Paragraph 1________

第8题：
There are several ways you can find out about the countries and places you wish to visit. You can talk to friends who have travelled to the places. Or you can go and see a colour film. Or you can read travel books.
It would seem that there are three kinds of travel books. The first are those that give a personal, subjective (主观的) account of travels which the author has actually made himself, if they are informative and have a good index (索引), then they can be useful to you when you are planning your travels. The second kind are those books whose purpose is to give a purely objective (客观的)description of things to be done and seen. If a well-read, cultured person has written such a book, then it is even more useful. It can be sorted as a selected guide book. The third kind are those books which are called "a guide" to some place or other. If they are good, they will, in addition to their factual information, give an analysis or an explanation. Like the first kind they can be inspiring and interesting. But their basic purpose is to help the reader who wishes to plan in the most practical way.
Whatever kind of travel book you choose you must make sure that it does not describe everything as "wonderful", "excellent" or "magical". You must also note its date of publication because travel is a very practical affair and many things change quickly in the twenty-first century. Finally, you should make sure that the contents are well presented and easy to find.The date of the publication must be noticed because （）.- A、the world is changing and so are the places you are going to visit
- B、the price of the book is always changing
- C、the author of the book may be different
- D、the contents of the book are always the same

第13题：
A funny thing happened on the way to the communications revolution: we stopped talking to one another.
I was walking in the park with a friend recently, and his cell phone rang, interrupting our conversation.There we were walking and talking on a beautiful sunny day and…I became invisible, absent from the conversation .
The park was filled with people talking on their cell phones They were passing people wi thout looking at them, say ing hello, noticing their babies or stopping to pat their dogs.It seems that the limitless electronic voice is preferred to human contact.
The telephone used to connect you to the absent.Now it makes people sitting next to you feel absent.Recently I was in a car with three friends.The driver hushed the rest of us because he could not hear the person on the other end of his cell phone.There we were, four friends driving down the highway, unable to talk to each other because of the small thing designed to make communication easier.
why is it that the wore connected we get.The more disconnected I feel? Every advance in ommunications technology is a setback to the closeness of human interaction(互动).With email and instant message over the internet, we can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another.With voice mail, you can make entire conversations without ever reaching anyone.If my moe has a question, I just leave the answer on her machine.
As almost every contact we can imagine between human beings gets automated(自动化), the emot ional di stance index(疏远指数) goes up.Pumping gas at the station? Why say good-morning to the assistant when you can swipe you credit card at the pump and save yourself the bother of human contact? Making a deposit at the bank? Why talk to the clerk who lives in the neight when you can put your card into the ATM?
More and more, I find myself hiding behind e-mail to do a job meant for conversation.Or being relieved that voice mail picked up because I didn ’t really have time to talk.The techno logy devoted to helping me keep in touch is making me lonelier
I own a mobile phone, an ATM card, a voicemail telephone,and an e-mail account.Giving them up isn' t a choice.They are great for what they are intended to do.It' s their unitended results that make me upset.What good is all this gee-whiz technology if there is no one in the room to hear you crying out“ Gee whiz”?
21.The author’s experience of walking in a park with a frier recently made him feel()
A.unhappy
B.funny
C.wonderful
22.According to the author, human contact in a park means()
A.looking at each other and saying hello when passing
B.noticing their babies and stopping to pat their dogs
C.both A and B
23.According to the author, the more connected we get in communication technology, the () we are
A.more automatic
B.easier
C.more disconnected
24.What are the examples the author gives to explain his idea that every advance in communication technology is a setback to the closeness of human interaction?()
A.With e-mail and instant message over the Internet.We can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another.
B.With voice mail, you can make entire conversations.without ever reaching anyone.
C.Both A and B
25.What is the unintended result of communication technology, according to the author?()
A.It makes communication easier and conversation possible everywhere.
B.It actually reates a distance between people instead of bringing them together.
C.It makes every contact between human beings automatic and makes people feel connected.

Eyes Can Speak
Much meaning can be carried clearly, with our eyes, so it is often 41 that eyes can speak.
Do you have such kind of 42 ? In a bus you may look at a stranger, but not too long. And if he 43 that he is being looked at, he may feel uncomfortable. The same in daily life. If you are looked at for more than necessary, you will look at yourself up and down, to see if there is 44 wrong with you. If nothing goes wrong, you will feel 45 toward the person who is looking at you that way. Eyes do speak, right?
Looking too long at someone may seem to be impolite. But sometimes things are different. If a man looks at a woman for more than 10 seconds ,it may mean that he wishes to attract（吸引）her attention, to make her understand that he 46 her. When two people are in a conversation, the speaker will only look at the listener from time to time, 47 make sure that the listener does pay attention 48 what he or she is speaking. Lovers will enjoy looking at each other or being looked at for a long time, to show something that 49 cannot express.
Clearly, eye contact should be done according to the relationship between two people and the place 50 you stay.

第19题：
There are several ways you can find out about the countries and places you wish to visit. You can talk to friends who have travelled to the places. Or you can go and see a colour film. Or you can read travel books.
It would seem that there are three kinds of travel books. The first are those that give a personal, subjective (主观的) account of travels which the author has actually made himself, if they are informative and have a good index (索引), then they can be useful to you when you are planning your travels. The second kind are those books whose purpose is to give a purely objective (客观的)description of things to be done and seen. If a well-read, cultured person has written such a book, then it is even more useful. It can be sorted as a selected guide book. The third kind are those books which are called "a guide" to some place or other. If they are good, they will, in addition to their factual information, give an analysis or an explanation. Like the first kind they can be inspiring and interesting. But their basic purpose is to help the reader who wishes to plan in the most practical way.
Whatever kind of travel book you choose you must make sure that it does not describe everything as "wonderful", "excellent" or "magical". You must also note its date of publication because travel is a very practical affair and many things change quickly in the twenty-first century. Finally, you should make sure that the contents are well presented and easy to find.This passage is about （）.- A、how to travel
- B、how to buy travel books
- C、how to read a travel book
- D、travel books
正确答案:D -
