Questions 11 through 13 are based on the following passage.

I am Lynn.My previous job was as principal of a language school, where I received awards for training teachers to teach more effectively.A year ago, I started an international company.I spent months conducting programs in the US and Russia.During this time, some Russian immigrants came to stay at my house.Fortunately, these visitors helped a lot at home and made life easier.At the same time, I wrote several books to be published by my company and coedited a book for a major publisher.

I am grateful I have a photographic memory, so I can remember everything I see.Otherwise, I might not be that productive.In addition to my work, I have a family at home.Some of my children have had serious health problems from birth, but I try to handle those problems well and efficiently.With tremendous help from my parents, the kids are fed, and clothed, and educated.

I am busy from the time I get up until the time I go to bed.My time has to be carefully planned.I do not like to be interrupted because I want to accomplish my goals.

B.Lynn's busy and successful life.

C.Lynn's great performance at work.

D.Lynn's efficiency in conducting programs.

Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.

Job interviews can generally be divided into three types.

The first is what I would call the traditional interview.This is usually just a series of standard questions about qualifications, work experience and expectations.So what you have here is basically a list of quite direct questions, like what duties did you have in your previous job.This is still the model for a lot of interviews today.In my view it's not the best to select staff.

Then there is the case interview.Here the interviewer presents a problem and a series of questions to find out how the candidate would approach the problem.It might go something like this, ‘A company wants to hire more graduates without spending more than its current budget.What would you advise them to do? ’This can be particularly challenging, for you need to analyze the problem and solve it.

The third type is known as the behavioral interview.The questions are usually designed to find out about how the candidates handle tricky situations in the past.A typical question might be ‘Can you give me an example of a situation where you had to follow orders that you didn't agree with? ’ This opens up a lot of information and the interviewer gets to see more of the candidate.

Questions:

14.What kind of questions are usually asked in the traditional interview?

15.What does the case interview focus on about the candidate?

16.What does the speaker mainly talk about?

14.A.Economic questions.

B.Routine questions.

C.Academic questions.

D.Challenging questions.

15.A.Work experience.

B.Educational qualifications.

C.Problem-solving abilities.

D.lnfomation-gathering abilities.

16.A.Features of different types of interview.

B.Skills in asking interview questions.

C.Changes in three interview models.

D.Suggestions for different job interviews.

Section C

Directions:In section C, you will hear two longer conversations.The conversations will be read twice.After you hear each conversation, you are required to fill in the numbered blanks with the information you have heard.Write your answers on your answer sheet.

1.

W:Hi, Bruce, it's Naomi.

M:Hi, Naomi.

W:I'm calling about the conference in Shanghai on November 8th.We have to make some changes.

M:OK, go ahead.

W:I don't think the peace guardian will be big enough.We need a center that can seat at least 600.

M:That many? Any suggestions?

W:The Palace Center will be free that day, but it will mean increasing the registration fee by $50.From $800 to $850.

M:That won't be a problem.Anything else?

W:Milan University says they are sending Carla Marisco instead of Professor Bertoni.But the talk would be the same, Opportunities and Risks in the African Market.

M:Fine.Make those changes and all inform everyone at my end.

Complete the form.Write ONE WORD for each answer.

2.W:David, we all know you took up skateboarding at ten.But did your parents support you?

M:Yeah, my parents even let me skate in the house.

W:Did they?

M:Yeah, they were pretty cool.

W:How about your school work?

M:That was fine.I was able to get my school work done with good grades.My only problem was that I had so much physical energy that I could not sit still in class.Then some teachers started taking my skateboard away.

W:That couldn't stop you from staking?

M:No way.The cool thing was that my parents managed to find me a different school.The headmaster there was wonderful.He let us plan our own P.E.classes.So guess what class I created.

W:Skateboarding.

M:You got it.That was my P.E.class.By that time I was turning professional and starting to show off some techniques at competitions.

W:Is that when your new style became famous?

M:Yeah.Other skaters had this smooth flowing style, but I was kind of like a robot always coming up with new tricks.

Complete the form.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.

I can't give you a step-by-step guide to moving slower, but here are some things to consider and perhaps adopt, if they work for your life.
1.Do less
Cut back on your projects, on your task list, on how much you try to do each day.Focus not on quantity but on quality.Pick 2 or 3 important things-or even just one important thing- and work on those first.
2.Have fewer meetings
Meetings are usually a big waste of time and make you rush.Try to have blocks of time with no interruptions, so you don't have to rush from one meeting to another.
3.Give yourself time to get ready and get there
If you're constantly rushing to appointments or other places you have to be, it's because you don't allot(分配) enough time in your schedule for preparing and for traveling.Pad your schedule to allow time for this stuff.If you think it only takes you 10 minutes to get ready for work or a date, perhaps give yourself 30 to 45 minutes so you don't have to shave in a rush or put on makeup in the car.
4.Practice being comfortable with sitting doing nothing
When people have to wait, they become impatient or uncomfortable.Try standing in a line and just watching and listening w people around you.It takes practice, but after a while, you’ll do it with a smile.
5.Realize that if it doesn't get done, that's Ok.
There's always tomorrow.And yes, I know that's a frustrating attitude for some of you who don't like laziness or living without firm deadlines, but it's also reality.The world likely won't end if you don't get that task done today.Your boss might get mad, but the company won't collapse and the life will inevitably go on.
Try these things out.Life is better when unrushed.
Remember the quote: If nature can get everything done without rushing, so can you.
