2-1 Advice from a Hiring Manager As a hiring manager I’ve conducted hundreds of interviews over the years. I believe this puts me in a good position to offer advice about how to make the best possible impression at interview. First of all, it is a good idea to arrive early for the interview, but not too early. 10-15 minutes before your interview starts is ideal. Candidates often believe that they should arrive as early as possible for an interview. However, arriving too early can be inconvenient for the hiring manager, who may well be interviewing other candidates. Once you have arrived, make sure you’re polite to everyone you meet, especially the receptionist. As a hiring manager, I often check with the receptionist after interviews to find out which candidates were most polite. It is important to me that team members will get on well with everyone they work with. Another important tip is this: if the interviewer tries to make small talks with you (by talking about the weather for example), make sure you are friendly. I often ask candidates about how their journey was, as their response will tell me what they are like as a person. Finally, bring a copy of your résumé. So many candidates forget to mention important dates or qualifications. If you have your résumé in front of you, it can really help you to answer challenging questions. Follow this advice, research the job and the position and you’ll be in with a good chance of passing the interview. 14. Why might an interviewer ask a candidate about the weather?

A. 　 To help the candidate to relax.

B. 　 To see how friendly the candidate is.

C. 　 When the interviewer has run out of other questions.

D. 　 If the interviewer’s office has no windows.

6-2 New year, new goal! For the past five years, I made the same promise to myself every spring: “I am going to get into shape”. Each year, I promised myself that I was going to lose weight and go down two dress sizes, so that I would look good (or at least normal) on the beach. However, it was the same story every year. Just two weeks after I’d made the resolution, I went back to my old bad habits. This year I decided to do things differently. I realized that my goal of dropping two dress sizes was unrealistic, and probably even unhealthy. When I examined my goal, I decided that it was too short-sighted to be meaningful. Why would I work so hard for just two weeks on the beach? When I thought about it, I realized it was more important to be healthy and strong than to look slim. Examining and changing my goal made a big difference. Instead of trying to lose weight, a friend and I decided we’d run a marathon in July. We planned our exercise schedule together, which was really motivating. We ate healthily, without worrying about our weight. Instead of obsessing about how we looked, we focused on our running performance. So, what happened? Not only did I manage to run the marathon, I also went down a dress size. What did I take away from this experience? What we think we need isn’t always what’s good for us. It pays to examine our goals. 60. In addition to running the marathon, what did the writer achieve?

A. 　 She went down a dress size.

B. 　 She went down two dress sizes.

C. 　 She ran the marathon in record time.

D. 　 She became much stronger.

10-1 What makes a job rewarding Not everyone wants the same things in a job. For some people， a good salary and benefits is the most important thing， while others are looking for some flexibility and the freedom to make decisions. What makes a job rewarding is very personal， but there are some common factors. Want to find out what these factors are? Then read on. For a job to be rewarding， it should not be too stressful. If you’re working long hours non-stop， you are unlikely to feel happy about your chosen career. However， a little stress at work can be a positive thing， as people feel good when they successfully meet challenges at work. Most people find caring for others rewarding. Nurses and doctors are obvious examples of caring jobs， but there are many other jobs which involve caring for other people’s well-being， for example teaching or even looking after customers in a hotel. There are jobs in every industry that involve caring for others in some way. People who find their jobs rewarding usually have positive relationships with their bosses， colleagues and customers. This doesn’t mean you have to be best friends with your colleagues. It does mean that you can turn to your colleagues for help when you need it. Finally， if you find your job difficult and can’t get any better at it， no matter how hard you try， you will probably not find your job rewarding. For a job to be rewarding， you need to feel as if you can do it well.93. What does the writer say about caring careers?

A. 　 Any job which involves caring for others is rewarding

B. 　 Being a nurse is much more rewarding than being a teacher

C. 　 Caring jobs are usually the worst paid.

D. 　 Caring jobs are good because they are flexible.

4.对我来说，最好晚一点再开始工作。

2-2 What to do after an interview There are many articles telling you how to prepare before an interview， but there is less advice about what to do afterwards. However， what you do after an interview is really important. Not only can it help you to prepare for future interviews， but it might also help you to increase your chances of getting the job. It is very important to think about your interview performance. Write down everything you remember， especially the questions you were asked. Then think about how you answered them. Don’t use this as an opportunity to be too negative about your performance， as this will not help with your confidence. Instead， try to be honest with yourself about what you did well， and where you could improve for the next time. Write a thank-you letter to the hiring manager. Not only does this show them that you are grateful for the time they took to speak to you， it is also an opportunity to make you stand out from the other candidates. After your interview， take time to connect with your interviewer on professional social media sites. If they accept your request， it could mean that they are interested in staying in touch. Even if you do not get the job， you will have taken an important step in growing your professional network. Finally， don’t spend all your time waiting to hear how the interview went. Stay calm， focus on learning new skills and start preparing for your next interview. 20. What should you do while you wait to hear back from the interviewer?

A. 　 Go over the things you said at the interview.
