题文

阅读下面短文，根据短文内容完成表格中所缺信息，每空一词。 One of the most common questions I am asked is whether, when, and how to follow up after a job interview. Following up in some way is necessary. Yes, you can get a job without it, but if you compete with other top candidates(候选人), following up can sometimes help you when the other candidate doesn’t. Here’s how to follow up well: Send a thank-you note at once. E-mail is fine for this and has the advantage of arriving faster, but handwritten notes are still appreciated (欣赏). And if there are many interviews（面试）, send a thank-you note each time. Find out their timeline. Hopefully, you asked about their timeline in the interview itself, but if you didn’t, follow up within a week to strengthen your interest and politely ask what they expect their timeline for a decision to be. Be patient. Most commonly, job seekers are too worried about the result. It doesn’t look worried to express your interest in the job or check in to ask about the timeline. Don’t be nervous if you don’t hear from them at once. The hiring process often takes longer than a candidate would like, maybe the decision makers are out of town. If you’re past the time they indicated you would hear something, this isn’t necessarily cause for nervousness. Hiring often ends up taking longer than expected. Just politely follow up, explain you’re very interested but understand that hiring can take time, and ask if they have the latest timeline.

试题分析：这篇短文讲的是在工作面试之后如何采取进一步的行动。文中给了我们一些具体的建议，如马上写感谢信、查明他们的时间表、要有耐心、没有马上收到回信不要紧张等。 小题1:根据文章第一段Following up in some way is necessary，跟进在某些方面是很必要的。故填necessary。important 重要的，这个意思也可以。 小题2:ways/methods 方法。这里是具体的跟进方法。 小题3:根据文中第一条建议Send a thank-you note at once.，马上发一封感谢信，可知填immediately,马上，立刻。 小题4:由文中E-mail is fine for this and has the advantage of arriving faster，E-mail 比较适合这种情况，而且也比较快，我们可知发电子邮件要比手写的更快。故填faster。 小题5:由文章中but handwritten notes are still appreciated，但是手写的信件仍然受到欣赏。故填handwritten。 小题6:根据文章第二条建议follow up within a week to strengthen your interest，一周内跟进还可以加强你的兴趣。故填interest。 小题7:由文章中politely ask what they expect their timeline for a decision to be.，礼貌的询问他们希望时间表是什么样的。故填expect。 小题8:根据文中第三条建议Most commonly, job seekers are too worried about the result，找工作的人往往比较担心结果。故填common。 小题9:根据第四条建议maybe the decision makers are out of town, 或许决策者没有在城里。out of town 即 be not in town。故填in。 小题10:Hiring often ends up taking longer than expected. Just politely follow up, explain you’re very interested，如果招聘是时间已过，那么就有礼貌的跟进，解释说你对这个工作很感兴趣。故填politely。
