問題詳情：

You don't need to be a world﹣class mountaineer to stand out in a job interview． Here's my advice on how to nail the most common interview question．

    Most people are so eager to show off what they've been involved in． Don't worry， and there will be time for that． The interviewer has reviewed your resume and will ask you plenty about your expertise． "Tell me about yourself" is a question you're certain to be asked at any job interview．（1）　   　However， sharing something that shows who you really are beyond a piece of paper is a good idea． It will allow the interviewer to know something about your life outside of work．

    Everyone has something interesting to share about themselves． I've heard people talk about everything from being a world﹣class sushi chef to an ice carver．（2）　   　 Such as you participate in competitive sports， you're an accomplished（技藝高超的）pianist and you're writing your first detective novel． If the information showcases a unique aspect of yourself， and especially if you can link it to what you can bring to your next job， then go for it．

    Another way to think about the question is： "What gets you up every morning？" The person also wants to know what your sense of passion and purpose is． That volunteer work on a farm cooperative in South America， for example， shows you have a global perspective． （3）　   　  It doesn't matter how big or small the accomplishment is， as long as it shows you're struggling to improve yourself． When people are motivated by contributing to something bigger than themselves， they get more satisfaction．

    （4）　   　 Relax， be yourself and tell the truth． Don't approach the interview like you're trying out for Broadway． It's more than obvious when someone is trying to memorize their lines and "play the part"． Also， if you overstate what you've done or fully invent a story about yourself， you'll be exposed．（5）　   　

A．Take a risk to get personal．

B．Showing honesty is one of the most important things．

C．And then everything you say about yourself will be questioned．

D．Running your first 10 kilometers shows you like a challenge．

E．Too many people respond to it by giving a recital of their resume．

F．It's also important to tell it in a way that makes you memorable．

G．"Tell me about yourself" is an invitation for you to share brief information．

（1）﹣（5）EFDBC

【分析】文章主要講述了幾條關於如何回答面試中最常見問題的建議，可以讓你在面試中脫穎而出．

【解答】

（1）E．語境辨析題．在任何面試中"向我介紹一下你自己"是一個必然會被問到的問題．由空後的However以及句意However， sharing something that shows who you really are beyond a piece of paper is a good idea．"然而，分享一些簡歷以外能表現自己的事情是一個好主意"可知，E項：Too many people respond to it by giving a recital of their resume．很多人對這個問題的回答（方式）都是複述他們的簡歷．符合語境，故選E．

（2）F．承上啟下題．下文列舉Such as you participate  in  competitive sports， you're an accomplished （技藝高超的） pianist and you're writing your first detective novel．你參加過運動比賽，你是一個技藝高超的鋼琴師以及你正在寫第一本偵探小說．此處起承上啟下的作用，F項：It's also important to tell it in a way that makes you memorable．"以一種讓人印象深刻的方式介紹自己也很重要"符合語境．故選F．

（3）D．邏輯推理題．根據上文"The person also wants to know what your sense of passion and purpose is． 這個人還想知道你的*和目標是什麼．" 以及下文"It doesn't matter how big or small the accomplishment is， as long as it shows you're struggling to improve yourself．不管你的成就有多大或多小，只要它表明你正在努力提高自己．"可知，你要讓面試官知道你的*和目標是什麼．無論成就大小，只要它表明你在努力提高自己就行．此處應該是列舉出"努力"的事例．D項：Running your first 10 kilometers shows you like a challenge．剛開始跑10公里說明你喜歡挑戰．符合文意，故選D．

（4）B．段落理解題．根據下一句"Relax， be yourself and tell the truth．放鬆點，做你自己，說實話．"以及該段的下文可知，此空是本段的中心句，表示"面試要有真誠的態度（Showing honesty is one of the most important things）"．故選B．

（5）C．聯絡上文題．根據上文Also， if you overstate what you've done or fully invent a story about yourself， you'll be exposed．如果你誇大你所做的，或者編造一個關於你自己的故事，那麼你就會有所暴露．一旦暴露，那麼你講述自己相關的事情就會受到質疑．此空與上一句構成順承關係．C項：And then everything you say about yourself will be questioned．然後你所說的關於你自己的一切都會受到質疑．故選C．
