4-2 Have you ever dreamed about turning your hobby into your full-time job? This may sound too good to be true， but for fashion writer and model Anna King， the dream is now a reality. Anna had always found it difficult to find clothes to fit her. She says， “I am a plus-size woman， and so when I went shopping with my friends， I could never find anything big enough to fit me. So， I went online and found lots of great shops which sold fashionable clothes in bigger sizes. I took photos of myself wearing the clothes and shared my shopping experiences online， on a weekly fashion blog.” The blog called “Large Looks” became popular. Anna says， “Soon I had followers from all over the world! It turns out that many bigger women were having similar problems finding nice clothes.” After two years of blogging， a publisher asked me to write a book about my experiences. Just one week later， a model agency asked me to model some plus-size clothes for them. I just couldn’t believe it! Anna says， “I was able to give up my job as a secretary for a law firm and concentrate on my hobby. Now I never feel sad about going back to work on a Monday!” She adds， “Lots of people tell me how lucky I am. I tell them that yes， I was lucky， but I also worked very hard. I wrote hundreds of blog posts before I was noticed!” 36. What problem did Anna have?

3-2 Dressing for success Until recently， I had never thought about how important our work clothes are. However， this changed when I arrived for my first day of work at my new job. The first thing I noticed was that the receptionist was wearing jeans. Then I met my boss， who was wearing shorts and trainers. Most of my other colleagues were similarly dressed. At first， I felt happy to work in such a relaxed environment， but after a few days， I realized something. People were always checking their social media and eating food at their desks. One colleague even fell asleep sometimes. I am ambitious， and this wasn’t the way I wanted to work. Then I had an idea. I had read about how wearing smart clothes can make people work harder， and I wanted to see if it was true. I remembered that some workplaces let staff come to work in casual clothes on Fridays. I suggested to my boss that our workplace do the opposite， asking staff to dress smartly on Fridays. The first “dress smart” Friday my colleagues looked so smart! And guess what? They seemed to work harder too. Suddenly， it felt like that my workplace was a more energetic place to be. My colleagues noticed the difference—and so did my boss， because three Fridays later， she suggested staff come to work smartly dressed every day. Now my colleagues and I always dress smartly， and as a result， I think our team is happier and more productive.28. According to the writer， what is the relationship between clothes and work?

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. 15. According to the writer, why should candidates always take résumés with them to interviews?

A. 　 So they can have something to do with their hands.

B. 　 So they can give a copy to the interviewer.

C. 　 To help them to remember important information.

D. 　 So they can use it to write notes on.
