It would be interesting to discover how many young people go to university without any clear idea of what they are going to do afterwards. If one considers the enormous variety of courses【C1】______ , it is not hard to see how difficult it is for a student to select the course most suited to his【C2】______ and abilities. If a student goes to university to acquire a broader【C3】______ of life, to enlarge his ideas and to learn to think for himself, he will【C4】______ benefit. Schools often have too restricting an atmosphere, with its time tables and【C5】______ , to allow him much time for independent【C6】______ of the work he is asked to do. Most students would, I believe,【C7】 ______ by a year of such exploration of different academic studies, especially those "all rounders" with no【C8】______ interest. They should have longer time to decide in what subject they want to take their degrees, so【C9】______ in later life, they do not look 【C11】______ and say, "I should like to have been an archaeologist.【C10】______ I hadn't taken a degree in Modern Languages, I shouldn't have ended up as a(n)【C12】______ , but it's too late now. I couldn't go back and begin all over again."

There is, of course, another side to the question of how to make the best【C13】______ of one's time at university. This is the case of the student who excels in a particular branch of learning. He is immediately【C14】______ by the University of his choice, and spends his three or four years becoming a specialist, emerging with a first-class Honour Degree and very【C15】______ knowledge of what the rest of the world is all about. it【C16】______ becomes more and more important that. If students are not to waste their【C17】______ , there will have to be much more【C18】______ information about courses and more advice. Only in this way can we be sure that we are not to have, on the one hand. a hand of specialists【C19】______ of anything outside of their own subject, and on the other hand, an ever increasing number of graduates 【C20】______ in subjects for which there is little or no demand in the working world.

It was a very happy family. They were fairly well-off. The father, Leopold, was a master of music in Austria. His mother was warm-hearted. There were two children, Marianne, a schoolgirl, and little Wolfgang, a child not quite four years old. Marianne was learning to play the piano, and day after day Leopold stood behind her as she practiced. How patient their father was, and how cleverly he showed Marianne how to play some particularly difficult pieces! She was making progress, very good progress, and that was excellent. And there, almost lost in the big chair, sat Wolfgang, who never had to be told to keep quiet when looking over Marianne's shoulder. At that moment Wolfgang climbed on his father's knees and begged to be allowed to play the pretty piece Marianne had now mastered. What a joke that was! Picking up his baby son, Leopold laughed and said, "Look at your hands. You must wait, little man!"

There was no end to the fun during tea, and Marianne had to tell her mother about Wolfgang wanting to play a difficult piece. When the meal was finished, Marianne helped to clear away the dishes. Suddenly Leopold got up. "Listen!" said he in a surprised voice. "Listen! Marianne is playing the piece better than ever!"

But Marianne was washing dishes in the kitchen.

His wife following, Leopold walked quietly upstairs, the lamp in one hand, his music book in the other. He pushed open the door, and there was little Wolfgang playing in the darkness. "I love it" whispered the child.

It was the beginning of Mozart's life of music.

Wolfgang was quiet when his sister practiced the piano because______.

A．he loved music

B．he liked his sister

C．he didn't want to make a noise

D．he didn't feel well

JOB INTERVIEWS

People looking for jobs usually send in a copy of their resume. This should be used as a basis for questions from the interviewer.

Interviewers find it helpful to ask candidates about the way they behaved in difficult situations in the past, for example with an angry customer. These questions allow applicants to explain how they acted in a real-life situation and, consequently, give clues as to how they would act again in similar sit nations. Candidates are likely to tell the truth as speaking from memory leaves little time to invent what happened On the other hand questions which ask candidates to imagine how they would behave in a situation which they have probably never met are of little or no value. This is because they only provide answers about how candidates would hope to behave, and this might not match the actions they would actually take.

In any interview candidates must be treated fairly, with questions asked in the same means and with no candidate's interview lasting considerably longer than any other's. Candidates should always be given the opportunity to ask questions throughout the interview.

Jan Godley, head of HR at Aspley Supermarkets says: A company needs staff not only who have the fight qualifications and experience, but also who are happy to fit in with the company's way of doing things. Our managers have to accept the idea that everyone working here is a colleague (managers are always known by their first names), and that spending time actually in the store with colleagues and customers, rather than in their offices, is part of the job. For management posts, we organize pre interview group exercises to measure team-working and leadership skills, sometimes along with activities to assess personal qualifies.'

In all our interviews we take into account body language. It is natural for candidates to show signs of being nervous at an interview but most relax after a few minutes and become more confident. How ever, if the nervousness continues until the end of the interview, especially when difficult questions are asked, we would begin to have doubts about that candidate. Like all employers, we want to take on staff who are at ease with colleagues and customers so it is vital to watch the way candidates behave, as well as listen to what they have to say.'

Why is asking candidates to imagine their reactions to a situation unhelpful?

A．Candidates may have no experience of this situation.

B．Candidates may act differently in the real-life situation.

C．Candidates may never meet such a situation.
