在面试前对公司作一番调查，记住着装、身体语言、行为举止都非常重要。尽量避免常识性错误。你或许以为那不过是常识，但是出乎意料的事情真地会发生。
切记，这是一个双向选择。它不仅给雇主评价你的机会，也给你很大的机会去评价雇主。实际上，如果你能很好地把握自己问些恰如其分的问题，你将把面试者放到向你推荐公司的位置上。如果出现了这种情况，就说明你做得很好。
做好准备参加同一家公司的第二次面试，甚至是第三次第四次。如果你被召回公司进行更多面试，就意味着他们对你感兴趣，但是这并不说明你已经稳操胜券了。极有可能，他们是在缩小竞争范围，所以你应该继续努力争取最佳表现。
面试之后，及时向你的每位面试者写信致谢。这是职场必需，也是情理所致，甚至可能会成为你成功的决定因素。

2、Directions:
You are going to read a list of headings and a text about preparing in the academic community. Choose the most suitable heading from the list A-F for each numbered paragraph (41-45). The first and last paragraphs of the text are not numbered. There is one extra heading which you do not need to use. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. (10 points)
［A］ Analyzing your own taste
［B］ Being cautious when experimenting
［C］ Finding a model to follow
［D］ Getting the final look absolutely right
［E］ Learning to be realistic
［F］ Making regular conscious choices
When we meet people for the first time, we often make decisions about them based entirely on how they look. And, of course it’s something that works both ways, for we too are being judged on our appearance. When we look good, we feel good, which in turn leads to a more confident and self-assured manner. People then pick up on this confidence and respond positively towards us. Undoubtedly, it’s what’s inside that’s important, but sometimes we can send out the wrong signals simply by wearing inappropriate clothing or not spending enough time thinking about how others see us.
41___________
For example, people often make the mistake of trying to look like someone else they’ve seen in a magazine, but this is usually a disaster as we all have our own characteristics. Stand in front of a full-length mirror and be honest with yourself about what you see. There is no need to dwell on your faults—we all have good points and bad points—but think instead about the best way to emphasize the good ones.
42___________
When selecting your clothes each day, think about who you’re likely to meet, where you’re going to be spending most of your time and what tasks you are likely to perform. Clearly, some outfits will be more appropriate to different sorts of activity and this will dictate your choice to an extent. However, there’s no need to abandon your individual taste completely. After all, if you dress to please somebody else’s idea of what looks good, you may end up feeling uncomfortable and not quite yourself.
43___________
But to know your own mind, you have to get to know yourself. What do you truly feel good in? There are probably a few favourite items that you wear a lot—most people wear 20 per cent of their wardrobe 80 per cent of the time. Look at these clothes and ask yourself what they have in common. Are they neat and tidy, loose and flowing? Then look at the things hanging in your wardrobe that you don’t wear and ask yourself why. Go through a few magazines and catalogues and mark the things that catch your eye. Is there a common theme?
