VI.TranslationfromChineseintoEnglish（30points）

在找工作的过程中，有面试，就有曙光。

面试的成功与否，除了面试官如何看

你的条件及个人素质外，主要取决于他们如何评价你在面试中总的表现，因此，

有必要把它当作一场演出或比赛来看待，其目的是向面试官推销自己，让他们感

到你是干这项工作的最佳人选。

大多数人在面试中处于被动地位，竭尽全力回答提出的任何问题。

一种更好的

方法是控制局面，给面试官提供你想给他们的信息，而不是他们想从你这儿发现

的信息:

使他们有信心，绝对相信你是能胜任这项工作的人选，让他们几乎没有

理由相信你不能胜任。

信心不仅仅来自你作出的回答，也产生于你的外表以及你

表现出来的热情、精力、自信、个人品质和雄心壮志。

大多数面试者没能得到工作的主要原因就是他们没能使面试官对他们产生信

心。

他们败下阵来并非是他们不能胜任这项工作，而是他们对自己能胜任工作的

自信没能在面试中表现出来。

他们的自我推销做得还不够。

大多数人之所以这样

是因

为他们在面试时很紧张，如果每次面试后都没有得到工作，不少人觉得自己是

失败者并变的更为焦虑。

这是不实际的。

大多数面试者都将被拘之门外。

不要想

自己是否会得到这份工作。

只需专心参加面试，并竭尽所能，工作自然就会有着

落了。
