Attitudes differed to small errors of grammar and usage, or inappropriateness of vocabulary and idiom, with the native speakers finding such errors a little irksome(令人厭煩的)，though sometimes amusing, while the Chinese panel members paid hardly any attention to such errors as, for example, misuse of phrasal verbs and similar usages: “When I saw the job description, I decided to apply the position.” “I expect to find out a lot of challenge in the job.” “I can deal the emergency situations efficiently.”?

Errors of idiom or appropriateness caused more comment, during the post interview discussion, from the native speakers than from the Chinese panel members, on whom the errors were sometimes lost. For example, one candidate, when asked what salary he expected, replied: “I don’t care about it.” The message was clear enough, namely that he was primarily interested in the job, but the formulation of the message was not quite right. Even such ribticklers(笑話)as “I am a well planned person .”and “I would like to expose myself in another field”(both actually heard at interviews) tended to cause lipbiting among the expatriate rather than the Chinese interviewers.?

Panels with two Chinese and one expatriate used to be more common, but are becoming less common. The reason is that with more of the interview now being conducted in Chinese, the non Chinese speaker does not know what has already been asked and is liable to repeat in English questions that have already been covered in Chinese. This caused, naturally enough, confusion in the interviewee and can adversely affect the whole interview.?

The sensible procedure would seem to be to open the interview in the mother tongue of the candidates, to put them at their ease, then at a later stage turn to English, to test English proficiency. In practice, however, possibly because of the problem mentioned in the previous paragraph when the panel contains a foreigner, it is often the reverse, with a few, fairly standard, opening questions in English, and if these are successfully answered, then the job interview properly gets underway in Cantonese.?

One of the worst interview scenarios(方案)is when a foreigner who thinks she/he can speak Cantonese (but does so, in fact, badly) decides to question the interviewee in Cantonese. In other circumstances of a social nature the interviewee would no doubt politely compliment the foreigner on his or her good Cantonese, but in the seriousness of a job interview situation, the Chinese is confused and slightly embarrassed for the foreigner. These forays(初步嘗試)into Chinese usually end pretty quickly with one of the Chinese members of the panel rescuing the foreigner and continuing the interview in English.?

64．Concerning misuses of phrasal verbs,____.

A．both Chinese and the native speakers of English find them amusing

B．the Chinese interviewers tend to be tolerant

C．the Chinese interviewers and the English native speaker interviewers often have a discussion

D．might sometimes become a laughing stock to the native speakers of English but draw hardly any attention from the Chinese

65．It is implied in the passage that ____.

A．Chinese are generally liable to make mistakes in English grammar and vocabulary usage

B．expatriate interviewers are generally more friendly with interviews

C．braver candidates can often get the upper hand

D．the candidates often deliver an improper message for the use of inappropriate expressions

66．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A．The non Chinese speaking interviewer might ask the questions which have already been asked by the Chinese and hence cause confusion.

B．It is more practicable to start an interview with a few fairly standard questions in English before switching to Chinese.

C．The best procedure of an interview would seem to be beginning in Cantonese and then testing English proficiency.

D．The Chinese interviewee often politely compliments the foreign interviewer if he or she speaks cantonese if it is not actually so good in the interview.?

67．This passage is mainly concerned with ____.

A．whether language proficiency or work ability counts in job interviews

B．how to avoid awkward situation in a job interview in HongKong

C．the language used in a job interview with both Chinese and expatriate panel members

D．the sensible procedure of getting on with an interview where the Chinese interviewee’s English is to be tested

   When I was small and my grandmother died, I couldn’t understand why I had no tears. But that night when my dad tried to cheer me up, my laugh turned into crying.

   So it came as no surprise to learn that researchers believe crying and laughing come from the same part of the brain. Just as laughing has many health advantages, scientists are discovering that so, too, does crying.

   Whatever it takes for us to reduce pressure is important to our emotional（情感的）health, and crying seems to study found that 85 percent of women and 73 percent of men report feeling better after crying.

Besides, tears attract help from other people. Researchers agree that when we cry, people around us become kinder and friendly and they are more ready to provide support and comfort. Tears also enable us to understand our emotions better; sometimes we don’t even know we’re very sad until we cry. We learn about our emotions through crying, and then we can deal with them.

Just as crying can be healthy, not crying---holding back tears of anger, pain or suffering---can be bad for physical（身體的）health, studies have shown that too much control of emotions can lead to high blood pressure, heart problems and some other illnesses. If you have a health problem, doctors will certainly not ask you to cry. But when you feel like crying, don’t fight it. It’s a natural---and healthy---emotional response（反應(yīng)）.

1. It can be inferred from the text that       .

A.there are two ways to keep healthy

B.crying does more good to health than laughing

C.laughing plays a more important role than crying

D.emotional health has a close relationship to physical health

2. According to the author, which of the following statements is true?

A.Crying is the best way to get help from others.

B.Fighting back tears may cause some health problems.

C.We will never know our deep feelings unless we cry.

D.We must cry if we want to reduce pressure.

3. What might be the most suitable title for the text?

   A. Power of Tears                                       B. How to Keep Healthy

   C. Why We Cry                                                 D. A New Scientific Discovery
