Listening
Understanding Short Conversations
-W: I'd really like to make a good impression in class.
M: Well, so long as you pay attention, you shouldn't have a problem. Q: How can the woman make a good impression in class?
M: I've had a good rest, and am ready to make a good impression on my boss. W: That's the attitude! You're going to be great! Q: What is the man ready to do?
M: You've become so mature since I last saw you.
W: Nah, it just seems that way because I'm wearing nice clothes. I'm really still like a child. Q: According to the woman, why does she seem different?
M: Don't look so aggressive. Calm down and look relaxed.
W: OK, I'll remember to smile during my meeting with my new boss. Q: What will the woman remember to do?
W: My boss never notices me. I think I lack the skills to get a better job at my company. M: No. You just need to have more confidence in yourself. Q: What does the woman lack according to the man?
W: I'm sure you'd be promoted if you wore better clothes. M: You might be right. But clothes are expensive. Q: What might help the man get promoted?
M: My status will never improve if I can't make others believe in me. W: Improve the tone of your voice, and others might trust you more. Q: How can the man get others to trust him more?
M: How did your interview go?
W: Great! I stayed positive, like you said earlier, and I think I got the job! Q: What did the man tell the woman earlier?M: I took an instant liking to you. W: No way! I was so awful to you the first time we met!
Q: Why does the woman NOT believe the man?
Understanding Long Conversations
W: It'd be easier for you to persuade people if you don't look so nervous. M: I know, but I really can't change the way I feel.
Q: How could the man persuade people more easily?W: Stand up straight! M: What?
W: Your head should be up, and your back should be straight! Looking people in the eyes is very important!
M: I appreciate your help, but I'm only going to a job interview. W: I assume you want this job. Am I right? M: Of course I do.
W: Then listen to me! You'll make a good impression if you show self-confidence. But don't look too rigid. You want to seem a bit relaxed. M: Anything else?
W: Yeah. You should tell them a joke. M: A joke?
W: Everyone likes a joke. Do you know any?
M: I know one about a fight between a Frenchman and a German.
W: No! Don't joke about countries, sex, or religions. You could upset someone. M: I don't think I can remember all of this. Maybe I should just stay home. W: Honey, don't worry. You'll be great! Just stand up straight!
Understanding a Passage
There are simple rules for an interview, and it seems that everyone knows them. So, as an interviewer for my company, I expect people to be clean, well dressed, and show confidence when they see me. This is basic. But there is something else you must know.
To leave a good impression in an interview, you must be able to talk about the company. Before you see the interviewer, do some reading. Understand the company's special needs, so you can tell your interviewer how you can fill those needs. And then, you can explain why you should get the job.
I see smart, good-looking people every day, but the ones that leave me with the most remarkable impression are those who know about the company. Do this, and you'll be in good shape!
