According to the woman, what aspect of a job interview usually concerns students most?
Listen to a conversation between a student (S) and an advisor (A) at a university career center.
S: I’m Brian Jefferson. I spoke to you over the phone.
A: Yes, I remember you. Have you brought in your resume?
S: Yeah. I’ve got the basics down on paper, but I just think it needs polishing.
A: Well, let’s have a close look at your resume together today. We’ll talk about what works and what could be improved.
S: Sounds great!
A: But I’d suggest you also attend a resume-writing workshop. It covers not only your resume, but also writing cover letters to potential employers. I can reserve a spot for you in an upcoming one if you want. We have spots open for this Friday morning actually.
S: Thanks, I’d like to do that, too. I’d like to inquire about job interview training. Do you also offer workshops on this?
A: We sure do. Students tell me they’re really helpful. lt provides an opportunity to know what to expect. It’s when students don’t know that gets them most worried, you know?
S: Ok, I’d like to sign up for both then.
A: Sure, and for our records, what field are you studying?
S: Graphic design.
A: And when will you graduate?
S: This semester’s my last one. I need to start interviewing for jobs right away. I’m a little behind schedule.
A: Great. Well, you might like to know that we have new job opportunities all the time and actually there is a position open for a graphic designer in Ashlington.
S: Wow! That’s close to our campus.
A: It’s only a short-term opportunity, but if you got the job and were successful at it, it could turn into long-term one. You never know. There’s also an internship for graphic designers that you could apply for. It lasts all summer. It’s over in Blue Harbor.
S: Is it a paid internship?
A: Yes. The salary’s about the same as the position in Ashlington.
S: Ok, I should apply to both then.
A: Those are the only two opportunities I know about for graphic designers right now, but like I said, we get new announcements in all the time, so you should keep checking back. We post new opportunities daily on the career center Web site.
S: Oh, I didn’t know about that. Ok, I’ll check it online every day then.
A: And, well, if you’re going to be applying for jobs… now for graphic design it’s customary to include some samples of your work.
S: Yea, photographs of pieces for my portfolio...
A: Mhm... and you submit them electronically along with a resume itself. Most company websites make provision for that, instructions on how to send the photos, what format and so on.
S: Yea, we covered some of that in one of my classes, Someone said I should get my work professionally photographed though, but that’s really expensive.
A: Well, some people do, but really the images just need to be clear. Employers will know that you’re a student. If they want to see your art in closer detail, chances are they’ll call you in for an interview. Ok, now we should take a look at your resume.

选项 A、Ways to highlight one’s strengths during an interview
B、How to effectively negotiate a salary during an interview
C、How to obtain an interview
D、What to expect during an interview

答案D

解析 细节题。线索词为学生所说:It provides an opportunity to know what to expect.It’s when students don’t know that gets them most worried…如原文所述,学生在求职面试时最担心的是不知道面试过程中会发生什么(比如:面试官可能会问到的问题)。 A和C选项错误原因一致。原文未提及在面试中突出自己优点的方法以及如何获得面试机会。B选项中的salary一词的确在文中有提到,但那是指导老师在给学生推荐工作时涉及的,并不是学生在求职面试时最担心的。并且就B选项整体而言,如何在面试中有效协商薪资是原文未提及内容。针对此题,建议大家注意文中形容词或副词最高级修饰的内容。
