职称英语考试《综合类》每日一练精选及答案0525-11、How to Interview PeopleInterviewing (采访) is one of those skills that you can only get better at. You will never again feel so ill at ease when you try it for the first time, and probably you＇ll never feel entirely comfortable trying to get from another person answers that he or she may be too shy to reveal. But at least half of the skill is mechanical. The rest is instinct, which can all be learned with experience.The basic tools for an interview are paper and two or three well-sharpened pencils. But keep your notebook or paper out of sight until you need it. There＇s nothing less likely to relax a person than the arrival of someone with a note-taking pad. Both of you need time to get to know each other. Take a while just to chat, judging what sort of person you＇re dealing with, getting him or her to trust you.Never go into an interview without doing whatever homeworkyou can. If you are interviewing a town official, know his voting record. If it＇s an actor, know what plays he has been in. You will not be liked if you inquire about facts that you could have learned in advance.Many beginning interviewers are afraid that they are forcing the other person to answer questions and have no right to inquire about his personal secrets. ______ Unless the person really hates being interviewed, he is delighted that somebody wants to interview him. Most men and women lead lives that are uninteresting, and they grasp any chance to talk to an outsider who seems eager to listen.This doesn＇t necessarily mean that it will go well. In general you will be talking to people who have never been interviewed before, and they will get used to the process awkwardly, perhaps not giving you anything that you can use. Come back another day; it will go better. You will both even begin to enjoy it-proof that you aren＇t forcing your victim to do something he doesn＇t really want to.【单选题】e back another day; it will go better.B.But at least half of the skill is mechanical.C.As one philosopher interviewed in the film notes, they lack irony.D.You will not be liked if you inquire about facts that you could have learned in advance.E.This fear is almost 103 percent unnecessary.F.Both of you need time to get to know each other.正确答案:E答案解析:选项中this fear对应前一句中的afraid一词。

5、Operatunity1. Operatunity is a TV talent show for amateur opera singers, The winners get the chance to sing with the English National Opera. When two housewives, Denise Leigh and Jane Gilchrist won in 2002, their lives changed forever, As they sang Verdi＇s Rigoletto at the Coliseum (音乐厅) in Rome, they were transformed from working mothers into opera celebrities (名人).2. "I live in the village I was born in," says Denise, who is blind. "Lots of my neighbours are family, and my life is all about my three children. Jane, who worked as a cleaner and a shop assistant, was in a similar situation." She says. All I had to look forward to was seeing my four children grow up, and I love them, but ... you know there must be more things than life. Winning Operatunity has opened up avenues I never knew existed."3. "Last year was amazing," Denise continues, "Last month was Paris, before that we were recording at Abbey Road, in London, and recently we had our album launch at the Royal Opera House" "We＇ve been treated like princesses," laughs Jane, "... champagne, chocolates, five - star hotels ..."4. But it wasn＇t all so easy. For Denise, the worst part waswaiting at the beginning. "After I＇d sent in my application form I worried for a month, Then I had to wait ten days after my first audition (试唱). That was awful." Even when they won the competition they were allowed to tell their close family but they weren＇t allowed to tell anyone else until later. Denise and Jane also found the travelling is difficult. They couldn’t take their children with them while they were away singing, so they had to organise childcare. However, there＇s been no problem with the physical side of singing: "We didn＇t have to worry about that as we＇ve had lots of help and wonderful voice training." says Jane. They also had to learn to deal with the media." The kids loved the fact that they could stay up and watch us on TV, but I just couldn＇t understand why some newspapers were more interested in the fact I divorced at 21, rather than the fact I had just sung at the Coliseum, says Denise.Paragraph 1 ____【单选题】A.AdviceB.Living the new lifeC.The competitionD.Becoming famousE.Their lives beforeF.The difficult parts正确答案:D答案解析:本题有一定的难度，考生需要较强的归纳能力。
