Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.
Job interviews can generally be divided into three types.
The first is what I would call the traditional interview.This is usually just a series of standard questions about qualifications, work experience and expectations.So what you have here is basically a list of quite direct questions, like what duties did you have in your previous job.This is still the model for a lot of interviews today.In my view it's not the best to select staff.
Then there is the case interview.Here the interviewer presents a problem and a series of questions to find out how the candidate would approach the problem.It might go something like this, ‘A company wants to hire more graduates without spending more than its current budget.What would you advise them to do? ’This can be particularly challenging, for you need to analyze the problem and solve it.
The third type is known as the behavioral interview.The questions are usually designed to find out about how the candidates handle tricky situations in the past.A typical question might be ‘Can you give me an example of a situation where you had to follow orders that you didn't agree with? ’ This opens up a lot of information and the interviewer gets to see more of the candidate.
Questions:
14.What kind of questions are usually asked in the traditional interview?
15.What does the case interview focus on about the candidate?
16.What does the speaker mainly talk about?
14.A.Economic questions.
B.Routine questions.
C.Academic questions.
D.Challenging questions.
15.A.Work experience.
B.Educational qualifications.
C.Problem-solving abilities.
D.lnfomation-gathering abilities.
16.A.Features of different types of interview.
B.Skills in asking interview questions.
C.Changes in three interview models.
D.Suggestions for different job interviews.

1.Sheri Poe
Ryka Inc.
Since I started this company in my kitchen seven years ago. I always dreamt of what it would be some day. Focusing on that goal helps me get through tough times. To get the kind of success that you want, you need to dream big. That’s the starting point. Every success story begins with big dreams. You need to have big dreams for yourself, like being somebody rich, famous or fulfilled. You need to have a clear goal of what you want to achieve.
Also, I think it’s really important that the people you’re working with are as committed to the same goal as you are, so you can support each other and keep each other dynamic.
2.Anita Roddick
The Body Shop Inc.
In America, we have a shop in Harlem where 50 percent of the profits go into the community development, and the other 50 percent go toward the funding of a similar shop elsewhere in the United States. The pride that shop brings to the staff and local people inspired me.
What The Body Shop does successfully is use our facilities in the street and shopping centers to talk about real human issues like AIDS, recycling, human rights, and community service or to encourage people to speak out against anything they consider to be unjust. Knowing our products are symbols of social change is really encouraging.
3.Richard Melman
Lettuce Entertain You Enterprises
A number of years ago, I was interviewed by someone who was writing a book on enterprises. He asked me, “What’s the opposite of work?” I answered, “Lazy.” He started laughing and said, “Believe it or not, a lot of entrepreneurs say the same thing.”
The average person thinks the opposite of work is play, but to an entrepreneur, work is play. I think it all adds up to having fun. It’s fun to create, it’s fun to entertain, and it’s fun to make people happy with our service. When it stops being fun, I’ll stop doing it.
4.Frank Toskan
Make-Up Art Cosmeties (M.A.C)
One of the nicest things anyone ever said to me was, “I hate makeup, but I love M.A.C.” That’s what moves me on. Even people who don’t wear makeup can appreciate our company, what it stands for, its values, and the way we do business.
We work from an inverted (颠倒的) pyramid, where the customers are always at the top. Our customers inspire me and keep me going. They and our staff, not money, make me enthusiastic. If I had stayed in this business just for the money, I would have closed down years ago.
5.Kenneth Cole
Kenneth Cole Productions Inc.
You can’t be everything to everybody. Each of us has our own strengths and weaknesses. To be effective, you need to identify your strengths and concentrate on them. You’ll become more successful if you are able to channel your efforts to areas that you do best. In business, for example, if you know you are good at marketing, then give it full play. Seek help or assistance in areas that you may be poor at, such as accounting or bookkeeping. To turn your weakness into strength, consider taking hands-on learning or training.
