Peter: I'm doing well at school.
Snow: Which subject are you least interested in?
Peter:I think it was Chinese History. Not because the subject was boring, but the large amount of material that have to be memorized. It left no room to appreciate the wisdom of great people in the past.
Snow: When and where did you receive your MBA degree?
Peter: I received my MBA degree from Beijing University in 1998.
讲解：
1. 对话中Peter在回答面试官关于他教育情况的问题。educational background是指“教育背景”。一般呢都是从中学开始讲起。graduate from，从某所学校毕业。我们都知道上大学是go to college，那现在enter这个词也可以表示上某所大学。Peter说...then I entered Shanghai Polytechnics. 我就读于上海工业大学，polytechnic college，多科性工学院，工学院。
2. Peter 说I graduated in 1992 with a B.S.degree.我1992年毕业并且获得了理工学士学位。B.S.degree就是Bachelor of Science的开头大写字母缩写，在写简历的时候，一定要弄清楚自己学历的英文标准翻译。一般来说，bachelor，是学士学位，也就是国内的正规院校统招本科生，master，就是硕士学位，等等。最好向自己所在学校的有关部门询问清楚。
3. What department did you study in? 你就读哪一个系？I was in Department of Physics. 我读的是物理系。这其实就相当于在问，What's your major? 你的专业是什么？可以回答：My major is Physics. 或者I major in Physics.都可以。
4. 面试官一般还会问你在大学的学习成绩，How were your scores at college? 你的考试成绩怎么样？可以回答They were all excellent. 门门都是优秀. 或者概括地说I'm doing well at school我在学校成绩很好。
5. 考官还会询问你对学校里那些科目比较感兴趣，因为这样会从侧面反应的能力倾向。Which subject are you least interested in? 你对哪一科最不感兴趣？Peter说是中国历史，因为有太多资料要背，以至于没有任何时间去真正欣赏前人的智慧。
6. 关于这个问题你可以如实回答，当然，如果你很了解你面试的公司，说一些投其所好的科目也无伤大雅。Peter后来还获得了MBA学位，MBA我想大家都比较熟悉了，就是工商管理硕士Master of Business Administration 的开头大写字母缩写。receive a degree from，就是从某所学校获得某种学位。

Ben: I have been a salesman. But now, I can do public relations. Snow: How many places have you worked altogether? Ben: Three.
Snow: Would you give me a general description of your present job?
Ben: I am in charge of the trading department, handling invoice, shipping bills and computing
freight costs.

讲解：
1.What position have you held before? 就是“你以前是做什么工作的”。hold a certain position，“做某个职位”。
2. I can do public relations，可以做公关工作。表示“做某种工作”，就在do后面加上职位的名称就可以了。
3. How many places have you worked altogether? 你以前一共在几个地方工作过？也就是问你已经换过几份工作了？
4. Would you give me a general description of your present job? 你能描述你一下你现在的工作吗？也就是想了解一下你现在的工作状况。

6. Would you give me a general description of your present job? 那你为什么要辞职呢？Ben回答说现在的公司没有什么晋升的机会了，他希望找一份更加有挑战性的工作。陈述你辞职的原因的时候，只要说出最主要原因就可以了，千万不要把以前公司的所有缺点意义罗列，特别是不要说以前上司和同事的坏话，这样会给考官留下非常不好的印象。 Part 5 Reasons for Application 关于应聘的原因
