2.SECTION B INTERVIEWDirections: In this section you will hear everything ONCE ONLY. Listen carefully and then answer the questions that follow. Questions 1 to 5 are based on an interview. At the end of the interview you will be given 10 seconds to answer each of the following five questions.Now listen to the interview.听力原文:Interviewer: Well Charles, I must say that your shop is pretty remarkable. Um, it's basically a sweetshop, but you also do stationery and greeting cards and tobacco and fireworksShopkeeper: And newspapers.Interviewer: And newspapers. Ah. And apart from all that, you've got photocopiers...Shopkeeper: That's right.Interviewer: And a fax machine.Shopkeeper: Indeed.Interviewer: Yes. How did. I mean, why the photocopiers?Shopkeeper: Everything that's happened in my shop has almost happened by accident. But when I got into Clifton, I needed a photocopy one day and no one could tell me where to go. So it struck me that if I didn't know where to go, other people were in the same situation, so that's why I started it. And then I added on a facsimile machine because it seemed like a natural progression at the time. And all sorts of people use it.Interviewer: Yes, who, what sort of people do use it?Shopkeeper: Um, a lot of professional people —surveyors, engineers — particularly people who need to send plans. Because in the past you could send messages via telex, but a telex can't express a plan, whereas facsimile has that dimension, the added dimension.Interviewer: Right. And do people send these fax messages abroad, or is it just to this country?Shopkeeper: Well, it's surprising because when I started, I thought I'd be sending things to London and maybe Birmingham but, in fact, a high percentage of it is sent abroad, because it's immediate, it's very speedy. You can send a message and get an answer back very quickly.Interviewer: And how much would it cost, for example, if I wanted to send a fax to the United States?Shopkeeper: Well, a fax to the United States would cost you five pounds for a page. And when you think that in England by the Royal Mail, it would cost you twelve pounds to send a page by special delivery, it's actually a good value.Interviewer: OK. What about your hours? How long do you have to spend actually in the shop?Shopkeeper: Well, the shop is open from, essentially from eight in the morning until six at night, six days a week, and then a sort of fairly flexible morning on a Sunday. Um, and of those hours, I'm in it quite a lot.Interviewer: And how long have you actually had the shop?Shopkeeper: I started to have my shop in 1982, the 22nd of December, oh, sorry, the 22nd of November. It sticks in my brain.Interviewer: And did you enjoy it?Shopkeeper: Yes, overall I enjoy it. Running a business by yourself is jolly hard work and you never quite like every aspect all the time. 95% of the customers I love. Uh, 2% I really, you know, I'm not too bothered about. And 3% I positively hate.Interviewer: What, What's the problem with those? Are they people who stay around and talk to you when you're busy or complain or what?Shopkeeper: Um, it's bard to categorize really. I find people who are just totally rude, urn, unnecessary, and I don't really need their custom. And I suppose they form. the volume of the people that I don't like. But it's a very, very, very small percentage.Interviewer: But is there a danger that shops like yours will disappear, more and more?Shopkeeper" I think there's a very, very great danger that the majority of them will disappear.Interviewer: Why's that?Shopkeeper: Simply because costs of running a shop have just become very, very high. To give you some example, in the time that I've been there, my rent has quadrupled, the local property tax have doubled, other costs have gone up proportionately. And at the end of the day it is a little bit hard to try to keep uA.cigarettesB.exercise booksC.photocopiersD.chocolates

    Interviews are part of most people' s working life. Here are some handy tips on how to do your best at interviews.

    Interviews are part of most people' s working life. Here are some handy tips on how to do your best at interviews.

    Don' t mistakenly think that your interviewers want to know about you. They are interested only in that small part of you that can or can' t do the job they have advertised.

    sadly , many of us are so flattered by questions such as "Tell me about your strengths" that we take it as an invitation to chatter and make fools of ourselves.

    Never think that lots of enthusiasm is enough. sit down with a pen , paper and the job description ,and work out the skills and qualities they are looking for.

    Itemize your technical or professional skills as they match the requirements of the job. Then recall an incident to illustrate each of these skills. When you have done this

    , you will be in a position to begin justifying your ability and suitability.

    Remember that very few questions are lightly asked.

    If your interviewers are interviewing more than a couple of candidates , they have probably worked up a list of eight to ten questions to put to each person. In well-organized businesses , they will be making marks in their notebooks as you give your replies. An imprecise answer will show that you do not appreciate the value of the question. s0 think through how you can give strong

    , specific answers to questions such as "Can you work well in a team or on your own or in a small business?"

    Avoid giving them reasons to exclude you. You want to appear the sort of person who will help out in a crisis. make the tea sometimes even if it is not your job. be tolerant of others. whatever their age ,sex , race or religion ,

    and be easy to manage. Don't attack your previous employer as it suggests you might attack your now one.

    Try asking them a few questions. If you ask what sort of projects you would be likely to start work on ,you might then get back some very useful feedback. If they start opening Up

    to you , you can get into a more equal conversation and may have an opportunity to show that you can deal with the sort of situation they are describing.

    31. The passage is to show the applicant how to ( )

    A. prepare for a job interview

    B. do their best at a job interview

    C. impress the interviewers at a job interview

    32. The applicant should not attack his previous boss at the interview because ( )

    A. the interviewer and the applicant' s previous boss may be birds of a feather

    B. a man who speaks ill of somebody else in the back is not reliable and trustworthy

    C. the interviewer may think that, if one attacks his previous employer now , he might attack his new one later

    33. Why is it good for the applicant to ask the interviewer a few questions? ( )

    A. He can have more chance of demonstrating his ability.

    B. He can learn more about the interviewer' s likes and dislikes.

    C. He can make the interview run in the way in his favor.

  • 第15题:

    (ii) the panel interview with more than one interviewer. (5 marks)


    正确答案:
    (ii) Panel interviews are often used for senior appointments and consist of two or more interviewers.

    The advantages of such interviews are that they allow opinion and views to be shared amongst the panel. They provide a more complete and coherent approach, hence problems of bias inherent in face to face interviews can be reduced.

    They may also be appropriate where an individual with specialist or technical skills has to support the interviewer in relation to assessing the technical competencies of the interviewee.The disadvantages are that panel interviews can be difficult to control, interviewers may deviate or ask irrelevant questions and they can be easily dominated by a strong personality who is able unduly to influence others. In addition,
    such interviews can often result in disagreement amongst the panel members.

    参考答案:T

  • 第18题:

    Part B

    [A] You may have to impress the company HR representatives as well.

    HR reps are typically trained to ask very specific and personal questions,

    like what salary you expect and what you’ve made in the past.

    They might ask you about your impressions of the company and the people who

    interviewed you. They might also ask if you have other offers. If so,

    chances are good that they are willing to compete for you.

    But if you say that you have other offers,

    be prepared to back it up with the who, what and when,

    because they might challenge you.

    The HR reps are also the people who will conduct or arrange reference and background checks.

    They might have the final say.

    [B] Besides management, you might also interview with one or more of your future coworkers.

    Regardless of the questions they ask, what they most really want to know is how well you’

    ll fit into the team, if you’ll cause them more work instead of less,

    and if they should feel threatened by you. When answering,

    be eager enough to show that you are a good team player and will pull your load,

    but not so eager as to appear to be a back- stabbing ladder climber!

    [C] Always research a company before you interview, and remember that attire,

    body language and manners count, big time. Try to avoid common mistakes.

    You may think that this is common sense, but crazy stuff really happens!

    [D] Job interviewing is one of the most popular career topics on the Web.

    But no career advisor can tell you exactly what to say during a job interview.

    Interviews are just too upclose and personal for that.

    About the best that career advisors can do,

    is to give you some tips about the typical questions to expect,

    so you can practice answering them ahead of time. But,

    while there are many canned interview questions, there are few canned answers.

    The rest is up to you.

    [E] Be prepared to attend a second interview at the same company,

    and maybe even a third or fourth. If you’re called back for more interviews,

    it means that they’re interested in you. But, it doesn’t mean you’re a shoo- in. Most likely, they are narrowing the competition, so keep up the good work!

    [F] To put you somewhat at ease, many interviewers really don’t know how to interview effectively.

    Frontline interviewers are typically managers and supervisors

    who have never been or are barely trained in interviewing techniques.

    They’re a little nervous too, just like you. Some don’t even prepare in advance.

    This makes it easier for you to take control of the interview,

    if you have prepared. But in controlling an interview, it’s not a good idea to try to dominate.

    Instead, try to steer it toward landing the job.

    [G] After interviewing, immediately send a thank you letter to each of your interviewers.

    It’s professional and expected, and might even be the deciding factor in your favor.

    [H] Remember, it’s a two- way street. It’s the employer’s chance to judge you,

    but it’s also very much your chance to judge the employer. In fact,

    if you handle yourself well and ask the right questions,

    you’ll put the interviewer in the position of selling the company to you.

    If this happens, you’re probably doing well.
