STAR stands for Situation, Task, Action and Result.Here is how this works. Imagine you are asked to talk about a time you showed leadership skills.

I decided to start an intensive training program. We trained every night for three hours. It was hard work, but I motivated my team members by giving them small rewards, like candy, when they scored a basket. In the end we won the competition and now we're the most successful basketball team in our city!"The story is a good example of the STAR technique. It describes the situation (being captain of the basketball team) the task (having to win the competition) the action (motivating the team) and the result (winning).It's impossible to predict what you'll be asked at an interview, but using the STAR technique can help you give clear, confident answers.39.

Sometimes, interviewers will ask questions to find out more about the skills you have. For example, employers might want to see if you are a good team worker or if you are able to solve problems.

A good way to answer these questions is with the STAR acronym. STAR stands for Situation, Task, Action and Result.

It's impossible to predict what you'll be asked at an interview, but using the STAR technique can help you give clear, confident answers.

题目解答

答案

根据文章内容，我们可以进行如下推理来解答这道题：

  1. 定位关键信息：题目问的是“文章中的STAR例子说明了什么技能？”（What skill does the STAR example in the article illustrate?）。我们需要在文章中找到关于STAR技巧的具体例子。
  2. 分析例子内容：文章第三段给出了一个使用STAR技巧的例子：“Imagine you are asked to talk about a time you showed leadership skills.”（想象一下你被要求谈谈你展现领导能力的时候。）接着，文章详细描述了一个作为篮球队队长（captain）带领球队赢得比赛的故事。
  3. 对应选项：
    • A. Communication（沟通）：虽然故事里提到了激励队员，但这只是领导力的一个方面，不是核心主题。
    • B. Leadership（领导力）：文章明确指出这是关于展现“leadership skills”的例子，故事内容也是关于队长如何带领团队取得成功的。
    • C. Teamwork（团队合作）：虽然涉及团队，但强调的是作为队长如何领导团队。
    • D. Public speaking（公众演讲）：与文章内容无关。

综合以上分析，文章中的STAR例子是为了说明“领导力”这项技能。

因此，正确答案是 B. Leadership.
