READING COMPREHENSION (20%)Read the following two passages and answer questions.Passage one: The smart job-seeker needs to rid herself of several standard myths about interviewing. What follows is a list of some of these untruths and some suggestions to help you do your best at a job interview. Myth 1: The main of interviewing is to obtain a job offer. Only half true. The real aim of an interview is to obtain the job you want. That often means rejecting job offers you dont want! So, before you do back-flips for an employer be sure you want the job. Myth2: Always please the interviewer. Not true. Try to please yourself. Giving answers that you think will suit a potential employer and practicing a policy of appearance are certain to get you nowhere. An effective interview(where you are offered the job or not) is like an exciting encounter in conversation with your seatmate on an airplane. Myth3: Never interrupt the interviewer An exciting conversation always makes us feel freefree to interrupt, to disagree, to agree enthusiastically. So, when interviewing, try to be yourself. Employers will either like or dislike you, but at least youll have made an impression. Leaving an employer indifferent is the worst impression you can make. And the way to make an effective impression is to feel free to be yourself! Another silly myth. Dont be afraid to disagree with your interviewer in an agreeable way. And dont hesitate to change your mind. The worst that could happen would be that the interviewer says to herself “Theres a person with an open mind!”36. By “myth” the author means_.a. an old traditional story or legendb. something that is unknownc. something false, that most people believe to be true37. According to the passage, if you looking for a job, your aim is in the interview is _.a. to obtain the job offered by the employerb. to obtain a desirable jobc. to let the employer understand your desire38.

When interviewing,_.a. try to be natural and relaxed b. keep an open mindc. dont interrupt the interviewer40. The best title for this selection would be_.a. The aim of Job-seeking b. Myths About Interviewing c. How to Obtain a JobPassage two: Technology plays a big role in customer service. The level of sophistication of any companys system will depend on the size of the company and the size of its customer base, but even the smallest company needs software for some type of customer relations management. The software provides a means for tracking all pertinent information about a customer, from product preferences to cyclical needs (at what point during the year the customers buys certain items) to birthdays and anniversaries. The “personal touch” has always been an effective way to build customer loyalty, and todays technology makes it easier than ever. Customer relationship management enables companies to tailor services to particular customers. Caller ID enables you to see who is calling before taking the call so you can pull up files and be prepared to handle customer needs. Voice mail systems (As long as they are not too complicated or multi-layered) free front desk personnel for more productive assignments and channel customers more quickly to the people they are trying to reach. A well-designed and informative web page will save customers time and effort by giving them basic information. An efficient e-mail system will get employee bulletins and production information updates to all pertinent personnel faster and at the same time.

You might be asked to write a description of an object or a mechanism, usually as part of a report or a manual. An object is something natural or synthetic that can be seen or touched, ranging from an apple, to a coffee cup, to a pencil. A mechanism is a synthetic object that consists of several moving parts working together to perform one or more tasks. A mechanism can be as simple as a pencil sharpener or as complex as a computer.47. Customer contact refers to maintaining customer satisfaction by communicating in a timely manner by whatever means is convenient for the customer. Returning telephone calls, message, and e-mail promptly is a critical means of ensuring the delivery of quality customer service. Determining what is timely, however, is up to you. The industry in which you work, the type of products or services you provide, and the type of customer all have an impact on how quickly a good customer service provider responds to communications from customers.48. Some people want to dominate conversations while others rarely say a word.
