Attention to detail is something everyone can and should do--especially in a job market. Bob Crossley, a human-resources expert, notices this in the job applications that come across his desk every day. "It’s amazing how many candidates fail themselves," he says.
Applications arrive with stains. Some candidates don’t bother to spell the company’s name correctly. "Once I see a mistake, I eliminate the candidate," Crossley concludes. "If they cannot take care of these details, why should we trust them with a job?"
Can we pay too much attention to detail? Absolutely. Perfectionists struggle over little things at the cost of something larger they work toward. "To keep from losing the forest for the trees", says Charles Garfield, associate professor at the University of California, "we must constantly ask ourselves how the details we’re working on fit into the larger picture. It’ they don’t, we should drop them and move to something else."
Garfield compares this process to his work as a computer scientist at NASA. "The Apollo Ⅱ moon launch was slightly off-course 90 percent of the time," says Garfield, "but a successful landing was still likely because we knew the exact coordinates of our goal. This allowed us to make adjustments as necessary." Knowing where we want to go helps us judge the importance of every task we undertake.
Too often we believe what accounts for others’ success is some special secret or a luck. But rarely is success so mysterious. Again and again, we see that by doing little things within our grasp well, large rewards follow.
选项
A、paid no attention to little mistakes
B、were inadequate in education
C、failed to give their background
D、spelt their names wrongly
答案
A
解析
题干的意思是:一些申请工作的人由于……被拒绝了。答案在文章的第一段人力资源专家Bob Crossley说的话中:“令人惊奇的是,不知有多少人自己把自己给否了。”原因是不注意小错误。注意:此题属细节题,一般来说,细节题是按照顺序安排的,第一题对照第一段,依此类推。
