问题                     Five Interviewing Fundamentals
    The most important thing to find out when you interview someone is if you like the person. You can teach someone to be competent in the skills you need, but you can’t teach someone to have an appealing personality. No matter what the person talks about for thirty minutes—really, much fewer than thirty—you can figure out if you like them.
    1. Learn how to conduct an interview.
    You need to understand what is driving the interviewer and how he or she is thinking. So know enough about the interview process to put yourself in your counterpart’s shoes. If the person is bad at interviewing, you can run the show. If the person is good, you have to figure out how to meet their agenda, make your points, and still be likeable.
    2. Learn from other people’s mistakes.
    The best way to see people making errors in interviews is to interview them yourself. But you can also read about other people’s interviewing incompetence. Jobaloo. com shows how candidates misread a seemingly innocuous question. And CareerBuilder. com lists some examples of extremely bad judgment.
    3. Know your agenda.
    What is the image you are trying to convey in the interview? Match that to the kind of job you are trying to land. You should have three points about yourself that you aim to get across in the interview. Before I became a full-time writer, mine were: great at executing a plan, a manager who everyone loves to work for, very reliable. I wanted those points to come across because I wanted to be hired to a position where I would have a lot of responsibility to execute a visionary plan and manage a large team.
    4. Practise.
    You can find lots of lists about how to interview well. Take a look at them and you’ll notice that they are all about practising: Avoid too much information, cut the puffy stuff, know your strengths and weaknesses. These are all things you can practise. If you think you can wing it in an interview, you’re wrong. There are no questions that cannot benefit from preparation, so any question you look unprepared for makes you look clueless about the interview process at best and lazy at worst.
    5. Be comfortable with silence.
    People who can remain calm during silence look powerful and comfortable with themselves. People who have to fill silence end up saying stupid things. Part of your interview practice should be to sit, saying nothing, so you are comfortable when that happens in an interview.
What is the author’s view on practice?
选项 A、All that need to be practised can be found on lists about how to interview well.
B、It is not necessary to practise everything.
C、The more questions are prepared, the better.
答案C
解析 题干意为：作者对练习的看法是什么?A项意为：所有需要练习的内容都可以在介绍怎样做好面试的名单里找到，B项意为：没有必要什么都练习，C项意为：准备的问题越多越好。原文第九段第三行提到：“介绍进行面试方法的列表里有很多内容是可以练习的，但是如果你认为练习了这些就能够驾驭面试，那你就错了。”由此可知，A项提到的内容不全面，故不正确。文中接着提到：“没有任何问题是你经过练习后不能从中有所收获的，任何你看到而没有去准备的问题会让你在面试时看起来不知所云或懒散。”由此可知作者的观点是：在面试前准备的问题越多越有利，故C项正确；而B项的内容在文中没有明确说明，故不选，故答案为C。
