Dont be surprised if the interviewer asks you something like: “How are you today? or What do you think of the weather lately? Answer the question without going into too much detail. Talking about qualifications is the most important part of any job interview. Your qualifications include your education and any special training you may have received in the past. Your qualifications also include your experience in any previous work. It is important to explain what experience you have in detail. Generally, employers want to know exactly what you did and how well you accomplished your tasks. This is not the time to be modest. Try to avoid some big mistakes in the job interview, such as leaving the mobile on and criticizing previous bosses. The worst thing is you yourself have no questions. Having no questions shows you are either not interested or not prepared. Remember that interviewers are more impressed with the questions you ask than the selling points you try to make.1. The passage is mainly about _.A) the typical questions asked in job interviewsB) importance of interviewees qualifications in job interviewsC) some common mistakes found in job interviewsD) Dos and Donts in job interviews2. A breaking the ice type of question is _.A) a question that makes people unhappyB) an opening question asked to make people less nervousC) a sharp question that makes people angryD) a question asked about serious topic3. All of the following are considered to be the interviewees qualifications except _.A) educational backgroundB) social backgroundC) all kinds of special training receivedD) experience in previous work4. _ is not mentioned in the passage as a mistake found in job interviews.A) Leaving the mobile onB) Criticizing previous bossesC) Having no questionsD) Arriving late5. If an interviewee has no question in the job interview, it may show he _.A) is not interested or not preparedB) is modestC) is familiar with the jobD) has good manners Harvard, Princeton, Yale, Stanford, Columbia: These schools have a lot in common. Their admissions are incredibly competitive, they charge a high price and graduates have a big advantage in finding a good job. In fact, graduates from famous schools might not enjoy as much of an advantage in the job markets as many think, and that a big name on your diploma doesnt always mean a big payoff. Lets start with the cost: Tuition at the top schools can easily average $35, 000 per year or more, while a lesser-known school might cost up to $ 20, 000 areas so students have to add their living costs to their tuition bill. Once they graduate, however, students are often facing with thousands of dollars of debt that they need to repay. The reasoning goes that graduates from big-name schools can write their own ticket, but the statistics dont bear this out. Graduates from a school which requires test scores high above the average can expect to make an extra 5 more than others, but that doesnt justify paying 40 more for tuition. Graduating from a lesser-known school with the same academic qualifications can make you the same money over the long run. Long-range studies show experience and performance eventually matter much more than the name on your degree, especially when times get tough.1.

Managers today prefer to hire people with _.A) experienceB) good fameC) a big-name diplomaD) much money5. If someone writes his own ticket, he _A) is good at writingB) is in troubleC) has a lot of choicesD) is very important The atmosphere is a blanket of gases around the Earth. For thousands of years these gases have kept the planets temperature at about 15oC. But now, because of pollution, there are more and more hot gases put into the atmosphere. This means the Earth is getting hotter. A greenhouse becomes hot for the same reason. Its a glass that lets the suns heat pass through, then stop some of it from leaving. Thats why scientists call the problem of the Earths rising temperature “the Greenhouse Effect”. Scientists agree that the Greenhouse Effect will add between 1.5oC-4oC to the Earths temperature by 2030. This will change the weather everywhere. Then there is the problem of food. When the climate changes there will be less food in the world. At the moment areas like the Midwest of America and central Russia grow a lot of wheat. In the future that may change when the USA and Russia become too dry for farming. Other countries will become wetter, but that wont help. The soil wont possible to grow the same amount of food as before. We cant stop the Greenhouse Effect. However, we can slow it down if we use less fossil fuel, protect rain-forest, use more natural energy from the sun, the sea and wind.1. It is indicated in the passage that_.A) the temperature of the earth will never changeB) the earth is becoming hotter and hott
