Smart job-seekers need to rid themselves...

Smart job-seekers need to rid themselves of several standard myths about interviewing before they start looking for a job. What follows is a list of some of these untruths and some tips to help you do your best at your next interview.

Myth 1: The aim of interviewing is to obtain (means “get”) a job offer.

Only half true. The real aim of an interview is to obtain the job you want. That often means rejecting job offers you don’t want! So before you please an employer, be sure you want the job.

Myth 2: Always please the interviewer

Not true. Try to please yourself. Of course, don’t be hostile—nobody wants to hire someone disagreeable. But there is plainly a muddle ground between being too ingratiating(逢迎)and being hostile.

Myth 3: Try to control the interview

Nobody “controls” an interview. When someone tries to control us, we resent(憎恨)it. When we try to control others, they resent us. Remember you can’t control what an employer thinks of you, just as he can’t control what you think of him. So he is ready to give and take when being interviewed; never control the interview.

Myth 4: Never interrupt the interviewer

Study the style of the effective conversationalists: they interrupt and are interrupted! An exciting conversation always makes us feel free—free to interrupt, to disagree, to agree enthusiastically. Just hang loose. Try being yourself for a change. Employers will either like or dislike you, but at least you’ll have made an impression. Leaving an employer indifferent(冷漠的)is the worst impression you can make.

1.To be your natural self in a job interview will__________.

A.make your interviewer angry

B.please your interviewer

C.leave an impression on the interviewer

D.leave the interviewer indifferent to you

2.     For job seekers, efforts to control the interview are likely to __________.

A.affect the interviewer’s opinion of them

B.lead to the offer of a job

C.enable them to express themselves fully

D.help to create a favorable image of themselves

3.The most important thing to keep in mind when being interviewed for a job is to _________.

A.try to obtain the job

B.reject the job first

C.qualify yourself for the job

D.see if it is a job you want

4.The right attitude to a job interviewer is to be _________.

A.obedient

B.hostile

C.pleasing

D.agreeable

5.     “hang loose” in last paragraph means to _________.

A.stay calm and relaxed

B.become weak and passive

C.take charge

D.sit back comfortably

I was very disappointed not to be able to go to the jazz concert last Friday. The announcement in the paper said that you could buy tickets at the theater box office in Richland Hills any day between 10:00 and 4:00. Since I work from 9 o’clock to 5:30, the only time I could go to the theater was during my 45-minute lunch break. Unfortunately, the theater is on the other side of the town, and the bus service between my office and Richland Hills is not very good. But if you are lucky, you can make the round trip in 45 minutes. Last Monday, I stood at the bus stop for fifteen minutes waiting for a bus. By the time I saw one come around the corner, there was not enough time left to make the trip—so I gave up and went back to the office. The same thing happened on Tuesday, and again on Wednesday. On Thursday, my luck changed, I got on a bus right away and arrived at the theatre in exactly twenty minutes. When I got there, however, I found a long line of people at the box office. I heard one man say he had been waiting in line for over an hour. Realizing I would not have enough time to wait in line, I caught the next bus and headed back across the town. By Friday I realized my only hope was to make the trip by taxi. It was expensive, but I felt it would be worth hearing the concert. The trip by taxi only took 10 minutes, but it felt like an hour to me. When I got to the theatre, I was relieved to see that nobody was waiting in line. The reason, I quickly discovered, was that they had already sold all the tickets.

1.The writer is probably ______.

A.worker

B.a college teacher

C.manager of a company

D.a clerk

2.He learned ______ that there would be a concert last Friday.

A.from his friends

B.from one of his colleagues

C.over the radio

D.from the newspaper

3.He could go and buy the ticket ______.

A.any day before work hours

B.both before and after work hours

C.only during lunch time

D.on Saturday and Sunday

4.The word “relieved” in the last two sentences may best be replaced by “______”.

A.surprised

B.pleased

C.puzzled

D.sorry

5.The story is about ______.

A.a good concert

B.someone enjoying a good concert

C.someone trying to buy concert tickets for his friends

D.someone’s disappointment at not being able to go to the concert
