Rohina Malik,a Chicago—based playwright,actress and solo performance artist,will take the stage in her one-woman play unveiledly(不带面纱地)on May 29 at the University of Wisconsin Oshkosh.

Born and raised in London,England,but of South Asian heritage,Malik is a fearless woman of talent.Her play,Unveiled,exposes racism,hate,crime,love,Islam(伊斯兰教),culture,language and life in one“amazing show,”said Jennifer Considine,professor of communication at UW Oshkosh.

Unveiled had its premiere in May 2009,and it received immediate attention.“I write plays because it’s my way of solving problems,”Malik said.“Art,in its many forms,has the power to solve world problems.That’s why,I believe we should do everything we can to nurture and protect it.”

Considine said she once saw Malik perform in Los Angeles and was deeply impressed.“You laugh and two minutes later you’re crying.She’s very talented,”Considine said.

She said Malik wants people to understand the experience of wearing the veil.“She wrote it following 9—11,as I remember her describing it—she was watching some of the media reports of women wearing the veil,and I think her experiences,and people she knows,were much more complex than what was being described in the media.”she said.

Considine said that the dislike of or prejudice against Islams,is very common in society,and it’s driven by a lack of understanding.“Her play will open students’eyes to seeing the wearing of the veil in a different way—and to maybe understanding that experience a bit differently,”Considine said.

She hopes to expose students to a variety of cultural experiences.“The goal of the play is to educate students about the wide variety of religious and non—religious traditions on our campus and in our community,”Considine said.

When you want to find a job, you have to face the employer and you must know how to introduce yourself well. Then you will be lucky enough.

The first impressions can play a major role in how an employer like you as a candidate(求职者). What you say during the first step of the interview may make a big difference. In fact, some hiring managers may make a decision to refuse a candidate based on what they didn’t do when you met them. That’s why it’s important to pay attention to interview manners and to carefully think through how you will introduce yourself during a job interview.

When arriving at the interview site you can introduce yourself to the receptionist (接待员) by giving your name and telling the purpose of your visit. For example: “My name is Tim Jones and I have an interview scheduled with John Smith at 2 pm.” You will be guided into the interview room or the hiring manager will come out to meet you in the reception area. Again, take the time to introduce yourself so the interviewer knows who you are.

Offer to shake hands, even if the interviewer doesn’t offer his hand first. Tell the interviewer that it is a pleasure to meet him. Smile, and be sure to make eye contact.

Many hiring managers will start an interview with an open-ended question like “Tell me

about yourself.” Your response should focus on the key elements in your background. You should carefully analyze the job first to the interviewer, and you can point out the interests, skills, experiences, and personal qualities.

Your introduction should be brief enough to hold the interest of the interviewer so that you can move on to the next question. Your goal is to connect personally with the interviewer as well as to show that you’re qualified for the job. Of course, your comments should show your enthusiasm for the job and organization. However, don’t overdo it and don’t spend too much time talking about yourself.

1.What is the purpose of the author to write this passage ?

A. To tell candidates how to go to a reception desk.

B. To tell candidates how to introduce themselves when finding a job.

C. To give some suggestions on how to be a good interviewer.

D. To give some tips on how to be a good receptionist.

2.If the interviewer doesn’t offer his hand first, you should ________.

A. ask the interviewer an open-ended question

B. shake hands without looking at the interviewer

C. offer your hand before the interviewer

D. introduce yourself briefly first

3.The passage is very useful for _______.

A. anyone who will go to an interview
