The job interview is the
moment of truth in job hunting. In addition to how the interviewer sees
your qualifications and personal qualities, much will depend on how they
evaluate your interview performance in general. Therefore, it is helpful
to consider it a performance or a game whose goal is to sell the interviewer on
the idea that you are the best person for the job.
Most people
take a passive approach to an interview, answering whatever questions they are
asked to the best of their ability. A better approach is to take control and
give the interviewer what you want to give, not necessarily what they are trying
to find out; inspire confidence--to give the interviewer every reason to believe
that you can handle the job for which you are being considered and little reason
to believe you can’t. You do this with more than the answers you provide.
Confidence is also inspired by the way you look, the enthusi
A. Your confidence.
B. Your personal ability.
C. Your familiarity with the company.
D. Your skills in answering questions.

[单项选择]Nike’s ties to the "Adventure" market made it willing to pay a reported $400 million simply for the right to sponsor Brazil’s outstanding national soccer team, thereby boosting the brand’s image as the footwear of champions. Such an investment makes sense in a market where consumers find many products with comparable features and quality and must find some reason to choose one over the others.

Tapping the "Togetherness" market, Guinness Brewery has teamed with an Irish firm to establish a chain for "authentic" Irish pubs in cities around the world--where Irish charm and British beer sell briskly in each other’s company.

As more people live closer
together, and as they use machines to produce leisure, they find that their
leisure, and even their working hours, become spoilt by a by-product of their
machines--namely, noise. Noise is nowadays in the news; it has acquired
political status, and public opinion is demanding, more and more insistently,
that something be done about it. So it was very appropriate’ that many people
professionally interested in noise control should meet to discuss their common
problems at a large-scale conference. In the three days of the Conference at
Teddington, 25 papers were presented; and faced with the pile of texts, whose
contents ranged from sophisticated aerodynamics to general comments on the
irritation expressed by neighbours, it was difficult to sort out the new ideas
which remain active in one’s mind six months from now, from the big mass of
valuable knowledge and facts which will remain on the s
A. They refer to the objective and subjective nature of the problem respectively.
B. Noise is dispensable in terms of energy but it is indispensable in sociological terms.
C. Noise is hard to control in terms of energy while it may be controllable in sociological terms.
D. All of the above.

[简答题]晒过的被子有一种芳香的干爽味,是那些把衣服拿到洗衣店然后取回来安心穿在身上的人嗅不出来的。酒店最令我不安的是那些没晒过的被子和床单,每一次都让我皮肤过敏,甚至不能入睡。
而我却又最怕阳光,在太阳光底下晒10分钟,脸上的雀斑立刻如山洪暴发。每天出门前都涂上防晒霜,才能安心见温柔的太阳。要真是艳阳天的话,我会抖擞全身勇气躲在伞底下,然后以最快速度躲入室内。
每一件细碎琐事都充塞着这般爱恨和矛盾。我爱阳光来晒被,自身又要躲开它。

[填空题]{{B}} Are Families Necessary {{/B}}
As human children are unusually{{U}} (1) {{/U}}for an unusually long time, it’ s obvious that every society must provide a domestic context fur the children. The problem is that we assume that the family ought to be the same as the family considered as parents and children.
In present day English, "family" has two meanings:
1. the{{U}} (2) {{/U}}group of parents and children;
2. a{{U}} (3) {{/U}}of relations, for example, the set of people who might be expected to turn up at a wedding or a funeral.

The first pre-election
poll, or straw vote, as it was then called, was conducted by the Harris bury
Pennsylvanian before the 1824 presidential election. This straw vote and the
many that followed it really registered nothing but local opinion; however, as
communications improved and elections were won by closer and closer margins,
newspapers and journals tried desperately to satisfy their readers’ curiosity in
more reliable ways.
Before the 1928 elections, no fewer than 85
publications made private inquires, generally by means of questionnaires sent to
subscribers and by telephone surveys. The principle common to all these
inquiries was that they depended on quantity rather than quality; little effort
was made to reach representatives of all segments of the population. Still, the
erroneous belief persisted that the greater the number of questionnaires, the
more accurate the results would be. The record
A. is based merely on sociological calculations
B. can always predict accurate results
C. has been used in other countries other than the US

"There are too many
students overcrowding courses and contributing nothing to society," says
Professor Edward Mishan, explaining the subject of an article, published
recently in an economics journal.
Using pure economic
rationality, Professor Mishan argues that subsidizing students because they
benefit society is a fallacy--one that he says he would have included in his
book 21 Popular Economic Fallacies, had he thought of it when it was first
published in 1970.
"For if higher education is free," he writes,
"a man who chooses to spend three years at university rather than enter the
workforce may be willing to do so even though it makes no perceptible difference
to his future earnings."
As such he advocates full commercial
rates on loans for students to pay the entire costs of their higher
education..
Professor Mandy Telford is not amused. "There is no
doubt that charging commercial interes

The greatest impact on the
family over the last 50 years has been the changing role of the wife. These
changes have affected not only her life but also that of her husband and
children. The family has changed from an economically defined unit under the
authority of the father and having minimal interpersonal emotional ties to a
unit with strong emotional ties directed primarily by the mother to her husband
and children. This meant a removal of the woman from the community into the much
more private setting of the nuclear family. One important result is greater
emotional and general psychological seclusion of the woman, which clearly
implied that the female role was culturally a secondary one.
In
recent decades it has become clear that for a distinct minority of American
women the traditional mother role in the seclusion of the home is no longer
acceptable. For many the family is of diminishing importance. The
A. The wife has become the key to strong emotional ties in a family.
B. A wife’s or mother’s changing role in turn is changing her family members’ roles.
C. The changing role of the wife has had great impact on her psychologically and emotionally.
D. The female was inferior to the male in every respect.

[简答题]Did these prejudices prevail only among the meatiest and lowest of the people, perhaps they might be excused, as they have few, if any, opportunities of correcting them by reading, travelling, or conversing with foreigners; but the misfortune is that they infect the minds and influence the conduct, even of our gentlemen; of those, I mean, Who have every title to this appellation but an exemption from prejudice, which however, in my opinion, ought to be regarded as the characteristical mark of a gentleman; for let a man’s birth be ever so high, his station ever so exalted, or his fortune ever so large, yet if he is not free from national and other prejudices, I should make bold to tell him that he had a low and vulgar mind, and had no just claim to the character of a gentleman. And in fact, you will always find that those are most apt to boast of national merit, who have little or no merit of their own to depend on.
