问题     In some ways the employment interview is like a persuasive speech because the applicant (interviewee) seeks to persuade the employer (interviewer) to employ him or her. Several suggestions might prove helpful to the applicant as preparation is made for the actual interview.
    A job applicant has the responsibility for ascertaining certain types of information prior to the interview. First, the applicant should know what kind of job he wants and how that job relates to his career objective. It is important that the applicant be able to state his reasons for wishing to work for a particular company. Second, the applicant should seek as much information as possible concerning the company. Relevant information for the applicant to locate includes such items as the location of the home and regional offices, the financial status of the company, plans for expansion, and company philosophy. Information about most major corporations is available in reference books and periodicals.
    After gathering information concerning the company, the applicant is ready for the interview. The interviewer’s first impression comes from the interviewee’s appearance. For most interviews, appropriate dress for man is a conservative (保守的) dark colored suit with a long sleeve white or light blue shirt and conservative tie. For women a conservative, tailored suit or dress is appropriate. Both men and women should have neat, conservative length hair.
    Although hairstyle and dress are matters of personal taste, many personnel directors form initial impressions from these characteristics. For example, one recent college graduate, who felt himself qualified, interviewed for a public relations job. However, the personnel manager considered this young man’s long hair, sloppy dress, and overly casual manner unsuited for this particular position.
As the author suggests, what the applicant should know before the interview is______.
选项 A、the type of work and his career expectation
B、his career objective a particular company will decide
C、the reasons a particular company has to employ him
D、all of the above
答案A
解析 本题是一道具体细节题。问作者建议在面试前申请人应该知道些什么。利用查阅式阅读法，我们发现文章第二段第二句指出，首先，申请者应确立自己所申请的工作性质以及这份工作与其事业目标的关系：他应该知道自己为什么选择到某公司工作。因此，本题的正确答案应是A“他的工作类型和职业期望”。
