(2016·山西太原五校检测)
The interview had been going on for about 20 minutes and everything seems to be going well.Then，suddenly，the interviewer asks an unexpected question，“Which is more important，law or Dove？”
Job applicants in the West increasingly find themselves asked strange questions like this.And the signs are that this is beginning to happen in China.
Employers want people skilled，enthusiastic and devoted.So these are the qualities that any reasonably intelligent job applicants will try to show no matter what his or her actual feelings are.In response，employers are increasingly using questions which try and show the applicant’s true personality.
The question in the first paragraph comes from a test called the Keirsey Personality Sorter.It is an attempt to discover how people solve problems，rather than what they know.This is often called an aptitude test (能力倾向测验)．
According to Mark Baldwin many job applicants in China are finding this type of questions difficult.When a Chinese person fills out an aptitude test he or she will think there is a right answer and they may fail because they try to guess what the examiner wants to see.
This is sometimes called the prisoner’s dilemma.Applicants are trying to act cleverly in their own interest.But they fail because they don’t understand what the interviewer is looking for.Remember that in an aptitude test，the correct answer is always the honest answer.
1．The writer wrote the passage to________.
A．give you a piece of advice on a job interview
B．tell you how to meet a job interviewer
C．describe the aptitude test
D．advice you how to find a job
2．Why do the interviewers ask such questions?
A．They want to discover what the interviewees know.
B．They are curious about the answers.
C．They try to discover the ability of the interviewees solving problems.
D．They just ask questions without thinking much.
3．According to the writer，in an aptitude test，Chinese job applicants should________.
A．not tell the truth
B．learn to tell what they really think
C．be more enthusiastic
D．try to find out what the examiner really want to know
4．From the passage we know that________.
A．job applicants are always asked such questionsB．more Chinese applicants fail to find a job
C．applicants should not act as reasonably as a prisoner
D．the aptitude test is becoming popular worldwide

Dear Tony，
Thank you for your letter.To tell you the truth，I’ve thought a lot of about whether you should buy a laptop computer help you with your study.In my opinion，you’d better not.For one reason，it’s very easy for you to develop some bad habit once you have it，such as playing computer games and see movies，which will be a waste of time.For other reason，buying a laptop computer don’t mean you can study well.If you want to make a progress，you need to put your heart into your study but work hard.Whether you had a computer or not is not the most important.Do you agree to me？Looking forward to your reply!
