【题目】How to Shine at a Job Interview

The smart job seeker needs to get rid of several standard myths about interviewing before starting to look for a job. 1

Myth 1: The aim of an interview is to obtain the job offer.

Only half true. The only aim of an interview is to obtain the job you want. 2 Unfit job seekers, however, become so used to meeting employers' expectation that they often easily accept jobs that they don't want. So before you work for an employer, be sure you want the job.

Myth 2: Try to control the interview.

Nobody “control” an interview - neither you or the interviewer - although one or both parties often try. Then it becomes a fake exchange between two human beings; no business deal is likely to be made. Remember, you can't control what employers think of you, just as they can't control what you think of them. So hang loose when interviewing: 3

Myth 3: 4

Study the effective conversationalists: They interrupt and were interrupted. An exciting conversation always makes us feel, free - free to interrupt, free to disagree ? to agree enthusiastically. We feel comfortable with people who allow us to be natural. Employers will either like or dislike you, but at least you will have made an impression. And the way to make an effective impression is to feel free to be yourself, which frees your interviewers to be themselves.

Myth 4: Always be well groomed and dress yourself fashionably.

Only half true. 5 However, some interviewers might not appreciate the way you “decorate” yourself or, possibly, the positions you are applying for would require more reserved personalities, which, to some interviewers, can be revealed from your appearance. Therefore, the more cautious solution would be to keep to the happy medium - neither appear too “modern” nor too “conservative”.

A.Never interrupt the interviewer.

B.It is good to appear clear and neat or well-groomed when you go to an interview.

C.Thus, the job seeker finds an ideal job.

D.Never dominate the interview.

E.That often means rejecting the job offers you don't want.

F.You are expected to respect each other.

G.Here are some untruths and tips to help you do your best at your interview.

【题目】 I shall always recall the autumn and the girl playing the violin. She made me realize true friendship. I know she will always be my best friend .

It was a golden season. I could see the yellow leaves falling on the cool wind. In such a season, I liked walking alone on the leaves in the woods, listening to the sound of them.

Autumn is a lonely season and everything is still. Such surroundings always get me down. But one day, the sound of a violin flowed into my ears like a stream flowing in the mountains. I was so surprised that I jumped to see what it was. A young girl, standing in the wind, was lost in playing her violin.

I had never seen her before. The music was so nice that I listened quietly. Lost in the music, I didn't know that I had been standing there for so long but my existence did not seem to disturb her.

Leaves were still falling. Every day she played the violin at the same time and the same place and I went to watch her performance . I was the only listener. The autumn seemed no longer lonely and life became interesting. Though we didn't know each other, I thought we were already good friends. I believe she also had the same feeling.

Autumn was nearly over. One day, when I was listening carefully, the sound suddenly stopped. To my astonishment, the girl came over to me.

“You must like the violin.” she said.

“Yes, and you play very well. Why did you stop?” I asked.

Suddenly, a sad expression appeared on her face and I could feel something unusual.

“I came here to see my grandmother, but now I must leave. I once played badly. It was your appreciation and listening every day that encouraged me.” she said.

“In fact, it was your playing that gave me a meaningful autumn,” I answered, “let's be friends. The girl smiled and so did I.

During the rest days left, I had never heard her play again. Only thick leaves were left on the ground. But I will not forget the girl. She is just like a dream, so short, so bright, like a shooting star giving off all its light that it makes the autumn sky shining.
