Most good interviewers will make an effort to establish and keep eye contact. Make sure that you do not find yourself looking down or away. If you wear glasses, be sure to buy the non-glare lenses. Do not stare.

Rapidly nodding your head can leave the impression that you are impatient and too eager to add something to the conversation -- if only the interviewer would let you. Slower nodding, on the other hand, emphasizes interest, shows that you are validating (確認(rèn)) the comments of your interviewer, and encourages him to continue. Tilting (傾斜) the head slightly, when combined with eye contact and a natural smile, shows friendliness and approachability (可接近的).

Your smile is one of the most powerful positive body signals. Everybody looks better when they smile. Offer an unforced, confident smile. Avoid at all costs the technique that some applicants use: grinning idiotically (白癡般地裂口笑) for the length of the interview, no matter what. This will only communicate that you are insincere (虛假的).

It’s worth remembering that the mouth provides a seemingly limitless supply of opportunities to convey weakness. This may be done by touching the mouth frequently; "faking" a cough when confused with a difficult question; and /or gnawing (咬) on one’s lips absentmindedly (茫然地). Employing any of these "insincerity signs" when you are asked about say, why you lost your last job, will confirm (確認(rèn)) or instill (慢慢灌輸) suspicions about your honesty.

39. The mouth may make your weakness known by ________according to the passage.

A. pretending to be coughing          B. having an unforced smile       

C. blowing a kiss                           D. showing your teeth

40. The main purpose of this text is to ________.

A. tell you how to communicate with others effectively.

B. show you how to make yourself more understandable

C. remind you of respecting the interviewer.

D. give you some advice on facial signals for job interviews

41. What does the underlined word “suspicion” in the last paragraph mean?

A. understanding                   B. uncertainty              C. expression                D. agreement

42. Which facial signal can cause you to lose an opportunity of being employed?

A. Gnawing on one’s lips.                   B. A natural smile.       

C. A natural smile.                                D. Touching the mouth occasionally.

39. A

解析:A項說假裝正在咳嗽,這是用來掩飾內(nèi)心虛弱的一種方式,從文中最后一段可以看出;B(從容不迫地微笑)、C(飛吻)、D(露出牙齒地笑)都是自信的表現(xiàn)。

40. A

解析:根據(jù)文中最后一段可以看出,咬嘴唇是“convey weakness”的一種方式,所以如果在面試的時候,老有這樣的表現(xiàn)的話,那就很容易喪失掉這次機會。自然的微笑、自然的眼神交流以及偶爾摸嘴,都不是很大的問題。

41. B

解析:根據(jù)前面“insincerity signs”以及問道“為什么會失去上次的工作”知,對待這樣不真誠的行為,面試者就會更加肯定“對你的忠誠度”的“懷疑”。understanding指“理解”;uncertainty指“不確定”;expression指“表達”;agreement指“同意;一致”。

42. D

解析:全文主要講解了關(guān)于面部表情的建議,所以D正確!叭绾斡行У嘏c人交流”、“如何讓別人更能理解自己的意思”、“提醒你要尊敬面試者”都不是本文的主要意思。

Dinah is one of the most good-natured children that ever lived, but she is very, very lazy. There is nothing she likes, or used to like, so much as to curl up in some warm corner in the sun and do nothing.
Dinah’s mother wished very much that her child should learn to read, but the lady who tried to teach her soon give it up. “It is no   16  ,” she said, “Dinah   17  not learn. She is not stupid, but too lazy.”
It happened soon that a young man from Massachusetts came to the house where Dinah lived. He brought with him something no one else in the neighborhood had ever seen before-a pair of roller-skates.
When Dinah saw the young man going rapidly up and down the piazza (廣場) on his skates she was so   18 . She ran after him like a cat, her black eyes shining.
One day the young man allowed her to   19  the skates. The child was too happy for words. Of course she fell down, but did not   20  at all.
“Look here, Dinah,” said the young man, “I understand that my aunt has been trying to teach you to read. Why didn’t you learn? Now, if you can read, I will send you a pair of good roller-skates.”
For a moment she said  21 , then exclaimed decidedly, “I’ll have those skates, sure.”
And she did. When she   22  her mind on her work, she could always do it well,  23  it was.
The lady who had before this found her   24   difficult a child to teach, now had no trouble. If Dinah showed the least   25  of her former laziness, the word SKATES was enough to draw her attention back to her lesson instantly.
On New Year’s morning she received a box marked in large printed letters:
MISS DINAH MORRIS,
Care of Mrs. Lawrence Delaney,
NEW ORLEANS, LA.
If she can read what is on the outside of this box she can have what is inside.
And as Dinah read every word clearly and quickly, of course she had the fine roller-skates the box held. And now sitting curled up in the sun, doing nothing, is not the thing she likes to do best.

       Being considered a leader in our society is indeed of high praise. Leadership means power, commands, respect and, most important, encourages achievement. Unlike vitamin C, leadership skills can’t be easily swallowed down. They must be carefully cultivated.
Different from popular belief, most good leaders are made, not born. They learn their skills in their everyday lives. But which do they develop? How do they (and how can you ) get others to follow?
Always give credit. Many leaders note that the most efficient way to get a good performance from others is to treat them like heroes. Giving public credit to someone who has earned it is the best leadership technique in the world. It is also an act of generosity (慷慨) that’s never forgotten.
Giving credit is more effective than even the most constructive criticism (批評), which often hurts rather than helps.  Kenneth Blanchard, the author of The One-Minute Manager, agrees. “Catch people doing something right!” he says. Then tell everyone about it.
Take informed risk. (冒險). “The best leaders know that taking a risk is not a thoughtless exercise,” says management adviser Marilyn Machlowitz. “Sky divers don’t go up in an airplane without checking the parachutes beforehand.”
Because the idea of risk also carries with it the possibility of failure, many of us usually wait for others to take charge. But if you want to be a leader, you must learn to fail --- and not die a thousand deaths. Pick yourself up and start all over again.
Encourage enthusiasm.(熱情) “When people understand the importance of work, they lend their mental strengths,” says Lee Ducat. But when they get excited about the work, all their energy gets poured into the job. That’s a great force! Is this the best way to create excitement? Be enthusiastic yourself - You will be followed by everyone.
69. The underlined word “cultivated”(paragraph 1)roughly means ______.
A. encouraged     B. compared      C. examined      D. developed
70. The part “Always give credit” tells us that a leader should ______.
A. give helpful criticism   
B. regard others as real heroes
C. praise people for their good performances
D. praise everyone
71. To be a good leader, you should ______.
A. not be afraid of any risks      B. think twice before taking risks
C. try to avoid any possible failures  D. know what a thoughtless exercise is
72. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. Leadership Is of Skills and Techniques
B. Leadership Is Very Important

Volunteering can help you deal with stress and problems, have more confidence, and introduce you to exciting new ideas and people. But what kind of volunteering should you do?

Firstly, think about what you enjoy. What are you interested in? What do you want to be when you grow up? For example, if you love animals, you can volunteer to care for abandoned(被遺棄的) pets or injured wildlife. If you want to grow up to be a doctor or a nurse, you can look for a youth volunteer program at a local hospital.

Secondly, think about what you’re good at. What skills do you have? What kinds of jobs do you do best? Try to find a volunteer position that will let you make the most of your strengths and talents. For example, if you’re a great speaker, then you could try educating others about a problem you care about. If you’re a cook, you might find a way to help feed hungry people in your area.

Thirdly, look for what your own community needs. What should be improved in your town, city, or school? What types of volunteer projects would do the most good? For example, if there are a lot of homeless people in your area, you could raise money to help them. If your town has empty areas filled with dirt or rubbish, you could organize or join a group to plant trees and flowers to make these areas more attractive.

The problems of the world, or even just of your community, might seem gigantic. Some people might even feel like there’s no point trying to do anything, since what they can contribute seems so small. But every person is important, and can do some good and make a difference. Like you!

1.What is the text mainly about?

A.How to be a good volunteer.

B.What we can do when we grow up.

D.How to improve society by volunteering.

A.interests

B.a(chǎn)bilities

C.people’s needs

D.what one gets in return

3.The word “gigantic” in the last paragraph can be replaced by “_____”.

A. huge     B. serious    C. meaningless   d. different

A.Through reasoning.

B.Through similarities.
