The following talk lists some o

29、f these untruths and offers some tips to help you succeed at your next interview. The first myth is that the aim of interviewing is to obtain the job you want. This is only half correct. The real aim of an interview is to obtain the job you like; and it also implies turning down the job offer you do

30、nt want. The reason for some job-seekers failure is that they become so used to meeting employers expectations that they often take up the job they dont really want. The second one, always please the interviewer, is also not true. Instead of pleasing the interviewer, you should please yourself. Youl

31、l get nowhere if you try to give answers that will suit a potential employer without considering your own feelings. Of course, dont be hostile nobody wants to hire someone disagreeable. Take a middle ground between being too agreeable and being hostile. An effective interview is like an exciting enc

32、ounter in conversation with your seatmate on an airplane. The next myth is to try to control the interview. Nobody “controls“ an interview, neither you nor the interviewer. Actually, it is an exchange of two parties like making a telephone call. So hang loose when interviewing: never dominate an int

33、erview. The fourth myth is never to interrupt the interviewer. An exciting conversation always makes us feel free free to interrupt and show different opinions. So when interviewing, try to be relaxed and natural. The last myth, dont disagree with the interviewer, is another silly myth. If you dont

34、disagree at times, you consent in fact. Dont hesitate to disagree with your interviewer in an agreeable way. And also feel free to change your mind. 16 【正确答案】 MYTHS 17 【正确答案】 LIKE 18 【正确答案】 YOURSELF 19 【正确答案】 MIDDLE GROUND 20 【正确答案】 CONTROLLING 21 【正确答案】 INTERRUPTION 22 【正确答案】 DISAGREEMENT 四、 PART F

35、OUR 23 【听力原文】 Leadership is the global obsession. Many writers and psychologists try to go inside the mind of the leaders. Kets de Vries here describes the psychological profile of successful CEOs. He explores top executives vulnerabilities. Youve studied the psychology of leaders in your whole life

36、. How do you identify the successful ones? The first thing I look for is emotional intelligence basically how self-reflective is the person? Of course, emotional intelligence involves a lot more than just being introspective. It also involves what I call the teddy bear factor. Do people feel comfort

37、able with you? Do they want to be close to you? An emotionally intelligent leader also knows how to single people out and say, “Hey; Deborah, you are special. Ive looked a long time for you.“ In general, emotionally intelligent leaders tend to make better team players, and they are more effective at

38、 motivating themselves and others. Furthermore, leaders do not always learn skill of emotional intelligence on the job. Of course, over the years, Ive met highly successful executives who are not self- reflective at all. They are total doers. You have to be a doer to make it in business. Nevertheles

39、s, in my experience, the most effective leaders are able to both act and reflect, which prepares them to manage for the long term. Do the background of successful leaders youve studied have anything in common? There is evidence that many successful male leaders had strong, supportive mothers and rat

40、her remote, absent fathers. This is beautifully exemplified by Jack Welch, who in his autobiography, describes his attachment to a powerhouse of a mother and depicts his father, a train conductor, as pleasant enough but not very present. However, when it comes to women, its harder to explain what ma

41、kes for success. But it does seem that the model for great women leaders is more complicated than that of great male leaders. As with the men, some strong women leaders had powerful, supportive mothers. But others had powerful fathers. Would you say that culture plays a role in determining what type

42、 of leader you have? Certainly, different cultures have very different expectations of leaders. In America, for instance, a leader is a big shot. He takes himself very seriously, and other people regard him as a kind of support. In Dutch culture, a leader is someone who suffers. A leadership style t

43、hat would be effective in Sweden, for example, may be quite malfunctional in Russia. On the other hand, corporate culture varies enormously as well, and companies differ in how they regard factors such as power, status, and hierarchy. There are also great differences in the way executives from vario

44、us national cultures look at control and authority. You often write that executives are irrational. What do you mean by that? Well, ff you study executives, you quickly see that they dont behave rationally all the time. Indeed, irrational behavior is common in organizational life. The mental health

45、of senior executives is very subtle. They cant be too crazy or they generally dont make it to senior positions, but they are nonetheless extremely driven people. But executives dont like to hear this, they like to think they are totally in control. Now to sum up, what is your prescription for healthy leadership? Self-awareness and a well-rounded personal life, as well as an ability to suffer fools and laugh at yourself. 23 【正确答案】 C 24 【正确答案】 A 25 【正确答案】 A 26 【正确答案】 C 27 【正确答案】 B 28 【正确答案】 A 29 【正确答案】 B 30 【正确答案】 C
