9-2 How to start strong at work You’ve had a successful job interview. Congratulations! What comes next is equally important to your chances of career success - your first day on the job. How do you make a positive impact on your new colleagues and boss? Remember the preparation you did before your interview? You’ll need to be just as well-prepared for your first day of a new job. This means thinking about the questions you will need to ask in order to be successful in your role. On your first day， make sure you arrive for work at least 15 minutes early. If you haven’t done the commute before， practise it once or twice during rush hour. This will help to prevent you being surprised by heavy traffic. Make sure you introduce yourself to your new colleagues. Prepare a short introduction， saying who you are， where you worked before and what your new role is. Whatever you do， don’t spend the day alone， as this can become a habit which is hard to break. Remember to put your cell-phone on silent. You need to be 100 percent present at work， especially on your first day. You’ll find it harder to connect with your colleagues if you are busy checking your phone for messages. Finally， make sure to learn the unwritten rules of your office. Finding out about where to wash your coffee cups will show that you are the kind of person who cares about the workspace you share with others. 89. How should you behave around your colleagues?

5-2 We all know that employers check out the social media accounts of potential candidates， but did you know that they also look at staff accounts? Three months ago， I had just started a job in a restaurant. The first Saturday I worked there we had a staff shortage as quite a few people were off ill. At lunch time， I was left to serve about 20 customers by myself! As you can imagine， service was slow， and a few customers were quite rude to me. By the end of the day， I had a terrible headache， sore feet and was in a very bad mood. I just wanted to let off some steam， so I went home and wrote a blog post about the terrible day I＇d had. It was supposed to be funny， but I did bad-mouth some of the customers， especially a large woman wearing a purple coat who had shouted at me because her coffee was cold. Then I shared the blog post to my social media accounts. That was a big mistake. I had forgotten that I was friends with my boss on social media. Unfortunately for me， the woman in the purple coat who I had described in my blog post turned out to be his wife! I was called into my boss’ office and fired the next day. What did I learn from this? Never write anything negative about your work on social media: it will always come back to bite you. 46. Choose the best title for the article.

5-1 My dream job: being a social media manager I’ve been a social media manager since graduating last year. You might be asking yourself what a social media manager does. Well, let me explain. A social media manager manages the social media accounts of businesses or individuals to help them to achieve their business or career goals. Personally, I specialize in helping individuals to achieve their professional goals through social media. Often this means helping them to develop a presence on social media so that they are more likely to catch the eye of a recruiter in their chosen field. Often, I’ll work with a client for a few weeks, and then receive a message from them afterwards saying, “Guess what? I got the job of my dreams thanks to your advice!” When this happens, I feel my job is rewarding and that I am making a difference to people’s lives in my own way. Sometimes the work I do involves helping people to promote a product, for example a book they have written. Either way, I have to work with my clients on achieving good posting habits (not posting too often or too rarely) and developing a strong, positive brand. The first thing I have to do with any client is to ask them questions about what they want to achieve through social media. It’s important that I listen to their ideas. In fact, I’d say that being able to communicate effectively is the most important skill you need if you want to succeed in this career. 42. Which of the following does the writer NOT mention doing as part of their job?

A. 　 Helping clients to develop good posting habits.

B. 　 Helping clients to promote products.

C. 　 Helping clients to find jobs.

D. 　 Helping clients to understand how different platforms 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. 12. According to the writer, how early should candidates arrive for interview?

A. 　 They should arrive exactly on time.

B. 　 They should arrive 10-15 minutes early.

C. 　 They should arrive half an hour early.

D. 　 They should arrive an hour early.
