Why does the woman mention the career center’s Web site?
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、To suggest that the man look at sample portfolios posted there
B、To suggest that the man look there for additional job postings
C、To indicate where the man can learn about the center’s workshops
D、To indicate where the man can submit his application for the internship

答案B

解析 组织结构题。线索词为指导老师所说:...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.如原文所示,就业指导中心网站每天更新招聘信息。老师提及网站是为了提醒学生注意最新招聘动态,以便从中寻找合适自己的岗位。A选项错误,因为就业指导中心网站上没有sample portfolios(作品集样章)。Portfolios一词的确在文中有提及,但所涉内容为:学生需将作品集以电子文档形式发至心仪公司。C选项错误,因为文中未提及workshop(研讨会)的学习地点。D选项与原文表述相悖,因为学生需将申请材料以电子文档形式发至公司,而不是将其提交至就业指导中心网站。
