(2 marks each, 10 marks altogether)In some ways the employment interview is like a persuasive speech because the applicant (interviewee) seeks to persuade the employer (interviewer) to employ him or her. Several suggestions might prove helpful to the applicant as preparation is made for the actual interview. A job applicant has the responsibility for ascertaining certain types of information prior to the interview. First, the applicant should know what kind of job he wants and how that job relates to his career objective. It is important that the applicant be able to state his reasons for wishing to work for a particular company. Second, the applicant should seek as much information as possible concerning the company. Relevant information for the applicant to locate includes such items as the location of the home and regional offices, the financial status of the company, plans for expansion, and company philosophy. Information about most major corporations is available in reference books and periodicals.考 生 答 题 不 准 超 过 此 线 地 区姓 名单 位 名 称准 考 证 号After gathering information concerning the company, the applicant is ready for the interview. The interviewers first impression comes from the interviewees appearance. For most interviews, appropriate dress for man is a conservative dark colored suit with a long sleeve white or light blue shirt and conservative tie. For women a conservative, tailored suit or dress is appropriate. Both men and women should have neat, conservative length hair.Although hairstyle and dress are matters of personal tastes, many personnel directors form initial impressions from these characteristics. For example, one recent college graduate, who felt himself qualified, interviewed for a public relations job. However, the personnel manager considered this young mans long hair, sloppy dress, and overly casual manner unsuited for this particular position. 1. Whats the purpose of this passage? （A） To inform the candidates of the recent interview （B） To give some advice to an employer. （C） To inform the candidates of how to prepare for an interview（D） To persuade the candidates to accept his advice2. Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage ? .（A）The applicant should know the type of work and his career expectation（B）The applicant should know as much as possible about the company （C）The applicant should have the reasons a particular company has to employ him （D）The applicant should not pay too much attention to his appearance3. According to the passage, before the interview, the applicant can obtain some information about the company he wants to work for _. （A）on the internet （B）in reference books and periodicals（C）in the library（D）from the employees of the company business and philosophy4. What kind of information about the company, as the author suggests, should the candidate obtain _ ? （A）the financial status （B）company philosophy （C）plans for expansion, （D）all of the above 5. From the last two paragraphs we can infer that .（A）first impression is of importance（B）public relations are important in the interview（C）self confidence is of great importance（D）personal taste is quite important in the interviewSection B Directions: Decide whether the statements are true or false based on the text, write T for true and F for false. (2 marks for each, 10 marks altogether)Here are a few examples of business customs in foreign lands that one should be cognizant of: In Brazil, conversations can become very animated and involve physical contact and raised voices. Yet trying to dominate the conversation will meet with disapproval. 考 生 答 题 不 准 超 过 此 线 地 区姓 名单 位 名 称准 考 证 号 In China, its considered impolite to reply negatively. Answers like we should discuss this further at another time or perhaps are much better than a simple no. The details can be worked out later. When giving gifts, avoid using white or green wrapping paper as those colors are considered to be inauspicious. In Germany, its customary to wait to be introduced to someone new by a third party. People are uncomfortable when approached by complete strangers. When dining with co-workers in Japan, always let the host pay for the meal. Be sure to never leave your chopsticks placed vertically in a bowl of rice as this is only done at funerals. The Irish are enthusiastic conversationalists who often indulge in criticism of themselves as a people and Ireland as a country. If youre involved in this type of conversation, never agree with what is being said or youll find that both yourself and your country will be roundly abused. Even in close countries like Canada, there are some differences in the way business people interact. Luckily there are many training programs available to familiarize business travelers and career people with the ins and outs of doing business in the international arena.1. In Brazil, people usually talk animatedly, but they usually keep space distance with each other. 2. In China, people usually give a negative answer indirectly instead of the direct “No”. 3. In Germany, its better not to bother to speak to a stranger if no one introduces him to you. 4. Irish people tend to criticize their own country in conversation because they bear hatred to their country. 5. The purpose of this article is probably to tell us that we should be aware of the different ways business people interact in different cultures and countries. III. TranslationDirections: Translate the following passage into Chinese. (4 marks each, 20 marks altogether) 1. As you know, we value our long-established relationship with your corporation, and look forward to increasing business in the coming years.2. Any information you can send us about the city itself and the surrounding countryside, including places of historical interest, will be very much appreciated.3. We are offering you goods of the very highest quality on unusually generous terms and would welcome the opportunity to serve you.4. The meanings we exchange by speaking and by writing are not given in the words and sentences along but are also constructed partly out of what our listeners and our readers interpret them to mean.5. The fact remains that women are now free to enter any career that attracts them; the situation has improved, and the tide is not likely to turn back. 考 生 答 题 不 准 超 过 此 线 地 区姓 名单 位 名 称准 考 证 号IV.
