Fed up of your desk-bound 9-5 job? Wish you spent your days being pampered instead? Dream of being paid to travel across the globe living the life of luxury? Your dream could well become a reality because one luxury website has posted a job application for a lucky individual to test the luxury life, which will involve sampling the finest products and experiences that the world is launching.
According to website VeryFirstTo, which is offering the position, the Living Luxury Executive will dine at the best new restaurants, lounge in the finest hotels, dress in stunning jewels, road test the most extravagant cars, face test the most indulgent cosmetics, and play with the most sophisticated tech products. The Living Luxury Executive will be responsible for evaluating each experience and reporting back to VeryFirstTo, a members-only luxury gift website that sells the world’s finest products and dubs(把......称为)itself "the first website for individuals to learn about, and have, newly launching luxury products and experiences. "
Speaking about the ideal candidate, the recruiter said: "The ideal candidate would be an early adopter, discerning, eloquent, familiar with fashion, hospitality, cuisine and technology, and have experience of the luxury market. " Candidates must be able to "distinguish between the roar of a Bentley and a Lexus engine, and the touch of cashmere and vicuna", according to the job specification.
Despite the position never being actually advertised, word spread across the globe and within days 1 000 applications have been received. Individuals have applied from a whole array of backgrounds and include a titled Lady, butler, Royal Marines Commando, Chairman of large European advertising agency, luxury magazine editor, beauty queen, senior politician and an Earl. Besides a multitude of approaches from UK residents, VeryFirstTo has been overwhelmed by applicants around the world with many offering to relocate and others stating they would even do the job for free.
And it seems that candidates are confident in their abilities with sentiments expressed alongside applications including:"I live in a large country estate and have an offshore trust, importing prime US Department of Agriculture(USDA)beef from America and unpasteurized(未消毒的)beer from Germany. I’ve owned and flown private jets and helicopters and stayed in top hotels. "
Speaking about the much coveted(梦寐以求的)role, a spokesman for the site said:"I think it is abundantly clear that living the luxury life, especially when paid to do so, is irresistible to many from every spectrum of background and nationality. Luxury might only be accessible to the privileged few, but it fascinates so many. Who knows, we might be able to provide someone with a very unexpected uber-luxury lifestyle. "
How do you think about the requirements for the candidates?
选项
A、They are reasonable.
B、They are a piece of cake.
C、They are laughing stocks.
D、They are hard nuts to crack.
答案
D
解析
细节推断题。定位段第一句提出招聘者对理想候选人的种种要求:很强的适应能力、眼光敏锐、口才好等等,这种要求还算合情合理,但是第二句中“能够听出宾利车和雷克萨斯车引擎发动声音的不同,还能分辨出山羊绒和驼马绒”的要求对一般人来说似乎有些苛刻,甚至是难以实现的,因此答案为D)。A)“它们是合情合理的”、B)“它们很容易实现”和C)“它们是笑柄”,此三项均不符合文章意思,故排除。
