According to Jessica Hagy, author of How to Be Interesting, it's not difficult to make yourself interesting at a dinner party. 36 , if you're out of your comfort zone or if you're wandering into somebody's house for the first time. So the main thing is just to show up and be adventurous, trying different foods and talking to strangers. People love to talk about themselves. If you can start the conversation with a question other than "What do you do for a living?", you'll be able to get a lot more interesting conversation out of whomever it is you're talking to. 37 , it can bring in "I have this old, broken-down vehicle" or "I rode the bus with these crazy people who were laughing at silly jokes in the back." It just opens up conversation. 38 ? If you can't take their wine away, you should certainly try to take away their soapbox (讲台). If you're the host, you can ask them to help you in the kitchen with something and just remove them from the situation. 39 . And what about that other dinner-party killer: awkward silence? If you're faced with an awkward silence at a dinner party, the only thing that always gets everyone talking again is to give the host a compliment (赞扬). 40 . Just quickly turn around and say, "This cake is extremely delicious and you have to tell me all about it." So being interesting at a dinner party isn't that hard.1. 36A: How do you know the hostB: The first step is to go exploringC: If you ask the question "How did you get here?"D: Be prepared to have awkward conversations with strangersE: Or turn the conversation into a topic where they have little to sayF: What about that person who has had too much to drink or won't stop talkingG: He or she is the person who is feeling the weight of that awkwardness the most2. 37A: How do you know the hostB: The first step is to go exploringC: If you ask the question "How did you get here?"D: Be prepared to have awkward conversations with strangersE: Or turn the conversation into a topic where they have little to sayF: What about that person who has had too much to drink or won't stop talkingG: He or she is the person who is feeling the weight of that awkwardness the most3. 38A: How do you know the hostB: The first step is to go exploringC: If you ask the question "How did you get here?"D: Be prepared to have awkward conversations with strangersE: Or turn the conversation into a topic where they have little to sayF: What about that person who has had too much to drink or won't stop talkingG: He or she is the person who is feeling the weight of that awkwardness the most4. 39A: How do you know the hostB: The first step is to go exploringC: If you ask the question "How did you get here?"D: Be prepared to have awkward conversations with strangersE: Or turn the conversation into a topic where they have little to sayF: What about that person who has had too much to drink or won't stop talkingG: He or she is the person who is feeling the weight of that awkwardness the most5. 40A: How do you know the hostB: The first step is to go exploringC: If you ask the question "How did you get here?"D: Be prepared to have awkward conversations with strangersE: Or turn the conversation into a topic where they have little to sayF: What about that person who has had too much to drink or won't stop talkingG: He or she is the person who is feeling the weight of that awkwardness the most

Passage One Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage. The hiring process may be different from one company to another. Nevertheless, the goal is the same — get the candidate who is the best fit for the position. Even so, how to choose that person Here are some best practices used by industry leaders to attract the best talent for the job. In particular, these are the new trends in the hiring process to be prepared for when you have a job interview. Typically, an interview is held in a conference room or office. However, this makes it easy for the employer and the candidate to act predictably. The problem with this approach is that at the end of a typical interview, the employers often don’t have a much better feel for the candidate than they do after reading the candidate’s resume. Alternatively, some employers walk around the office for part of the interview. This allows the employer to get a sense of how the candidate interacts with other people, and whether the candidate is truly curious and interested in how the company runs. Another change is that some employers create teams to hire new employees in comparison to having just one administrator conduct the interview. Employers then get opinions from the team members. More importantly, this helps employers hire someone with whom current employees could get along. Also, employers want to make sure that candidates provide new viewpoints for the company. Before they hire someone, they think about the diversity of viewpoints that the candidate can bring to the company. Be prepared to share how you can add value to the company through your own unique perspective and how you will help the company solve problems creatively. Furthermore, many companies try to get a sense of the kind of work the candidates will do for the company before hiring them as full-time employees. For example, they may offer you a temporary contract first as a consultant. Likewise, they may assign you a small task as part of the interview process.What is the goal of a job interview for a companyA. To change the hiring process.B. To discuss some best practices.C. To find the right person for a job.D. To attract more industry leaders.
