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. Dont 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 Upto 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.31. The passage is to show the applicant how to ( )A. prepare for a job interviewB. do their best at a job interviewC. impress the interviewers at a job interview32. The applicant should not attack his previous boss at the interview because ( )A. the interviewer and the applicant s previous boss may be birds of a featherB. a man who speaks ill of somebody else in the back is not reliable and trustworthyC. the interviewer may think that, if one attacks his previous employer now , he might attack his new one later33. 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.C. It is foolish to take the question Tell me about your strengths as an invitation to chatter.35.

It may be a game of some kind of football,hockey,golf, or tennis.It may be mountaineering.Those who have a passion for climbing high and difficult mountains are often looked upon with astonishment.Why are men and women willing to suffer cold and hardship,and to take risks on high mountains?This astonishment is caused probably by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activity to which men give their leisure.Mountaineering is a sport and not a game.There are no manmade rules,as there are for such games as golf and football.There are,of course,rules of a different kind which it would be dangerous to ignore,but it is this freedom from man-made rules that makes mountaineering attractive to many people.Those who climb mountains are free to use their own methods.If we compare mountaineering and other more familiar sports,we might think that one big difference is that mountaineering is not a"team game".We should be mistaken in this.There are,it is true,no "matches " between "teams"of climbers,but when climbers are on a rock face linked by a rope on which their lives may depend,there is obviously teamwork.The mountain climber knows that he may have to fight forces that are stronger and more powerful than man.He has to fight the forces of nature.His sport requires high mental and physical qualities.A mountain climber continues to improve the skill year after year.

共用题干So Many"Earths"The Milky Way(银河)contains billions of Earth-sized planets that could support life.That's the finding of a new study.It draws on data that came from NASA's top planet-hunting telescope.A mechanical failure recently put that Kepler space telescope out of service.Kepler had played a big role in creating a census of planets orbiting some 170,000 stars.Its data have been helping astronomers predict how common planets are in our galaxy.The telescope focused on hunting planets that might have conditions similar to those on Earth.The authors of a study,published in The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences,conclude that between 14 and 30 out of every 100 stars,with a mass and temperature similar to the Sun,may host a planet that could support life as we know it.Such a planet would have a diameter at least as large as Earth's,but no more than twice that big.The planet also would have to orbit in a star's habitable zone.That's where the surface temperature would allow any water to exist as a liquid.The new estimate of how many planets might fit these conditions comes from studying more than 42,000 stars and identifying suitable worlds orbiting them.The scientists used those numbers to extrapolate(推算) to the rest of the stars that the telescope could not see.The estimate is rough,the authors admit.If applied to the solar system,it would define as habitable a zone starting as close to the Sun as Venus and running to as far away as Mars.Neither planet is Earthlike (although either might have been in the distant past).Using tighter limits,the researchers estimate that between 4 and 8 out of every 100 sunlike stars could host an Earth-sized world.These are ones that would take 200 to 400 days to complete a yearly orbit.Four out of every 100 sunlike stars doesn't sound like a big number.It would mean,however,that the Milky Way could host more than a billion Earth-sized planets with a chance for life.The estimate of the number of planets that could support life is not very accurate.A:Right B:Wrong C:Not mentioned
