Question

【題目】Vocabulary

When I succeeded in becoming a part-time employee of Nokia China last summer, many friends asked me how I survived the interview.

I once asked myself the same questions. Many of my peers(平輩) also 【1】 for the job, including some very competitive and intelligent students from famous universities.

But why did the interviewer pick me instead of them?

Finally, 【2】 pushed me to ask the interviewers after we became colleagues. The answer was that I appeared confident but humble, responsible and communicative. They evaluated people not just on their academic certificates, but on the base of their 【3】 and abilities. I happened to be the right person.

To be frank, I once felt 【4】 of being a student from an unknown college, and I think this may apply to some of you. I thought my future was ruined. It was only at the time of my successful interview that I finally understood the famous saying --- “You decide where you go.”

A wide range of skills is important these days. I used to work for Master Kong. My job was to cook instant noodles for customers. I had 【5】 it as a piece of cake, but I failed constantly. I had to cook the noodles for the right amount of time to make them taste good. Moreover, the noodles could only remain in a plastic cup of five minutes, or the taste would be 【6】.

This experience taught me never to look 【7】 on anything, and always remain humble.

I also worked as a volunteer for a beach volleyball event. My job was to help foreign visitors experience the beach. I thought it would be very easy because my oral English was 【8】 good. But when I went to talk with a group of foreign guests, I suddenly realized that I did not know a single beach volleyball term. I was embarrassed.

After this, I read notebooks in both Chinese and English every day to learn the terms for facilities and related words. This allowed me to deliver right 【9】 to foreigners, and I was happy to work responsibly.

After these experience, I’m more confident and I strongly believe that my fate is in my 【10】. It has certainly helped me make a giant step closer to my dream of graduating with prospects for the future. I hope my advice will benefit you as well.
