Narrator:   扶好了！Anna 刚上了公车，准备去伦敦 Tip Top 贸易公司参加面试。这家公司发展

很快，急需很多销售人员。Anna 今天面试的职位是销售专员。How are you feeling 

Anna?  

Anna:   Oh, a little nervous but I really want this job. 

Narrator:  别紧张，只要你能正常发挥，肯定没问题。Just say the right things, you'll be 

fine! 

Anna:   The right things!? Like what? 

Narrator:  记得要做自我推荐，要有信心但不能给人傲慢的感觉，还要多举些实际的例子来证明自

己的工作能力。比如： 

我想到一个好例子 a good example that comes to mind.  

  让我感到自豪的是…  I'm particularly proud of.  

  我一向很守时。Timekeeping is important to me. 

Anna:   Oh right. Thanks. Perhaps you can come with me? 

Narrator:  Anna, 现在全靠你自己了。我会悄悄的替你加油鼓劲。说着就到了。祝你好运气。 

Paul:   Come in. Hello, I'm Paul, the Manager of Tip Top Trading. And you must 

  be…. 

Anna:   It's Anna. 

Paul:   Yes, very good. Thanks for coming. Now somewhere in this pile, I've got 

  your CV… 

Anna:   Err², is that it there? 

Paul:   Oh yes, thanks Hannah. Your qualifications look impressive³ but what sales 

experience can you bring to our company? 

Anna:   I worked in a shop once. 

Narrator:  Anna, 这是一个好机会，赶快举个实际的例子…

  involved with a campaign to promote and sell a new range of   

  clothes – I loved doing it and it was… 

Denise:  Oh sorry, excuse me. Here's your tea Paul. 

Paul:   Thanks Denise. Now Anna, it looks like you've achieved a lot during  

  your time at university. Could you give me an example of good team  

  working during your time there? 

Denise:  Sorry! I forgot the sugar. 

Paul:   Thank you Denise. 

Anna:   Hmm, so you want an example?  I was the treasurer⁴ of the debating  

  society at university. That was OK I suppose. 

Narrator:  加油，Anna. 要更热情点— 谈谈你在辩论俱乐部里具体做了些什么。 

Anna:  I mean… I'm particularly proud of how I organised the finances⁵ for the 

debating society. We had a very small budget and I had to make decisions 

on what to buy. 

Narrator:  好样的！I'm particularly proud of – 恰到好处，很肯定，但不给人很自傲的感觉。

继续。 

Paul:   Very impressive – so you're a good planner, Anna! We like organised 

people here (knocks tea over)…. ooops, silly me. I seemed to have spilt tea 

over your CV. 

Anna:   Oh, do you need some help? 

Paul:   Oh no… I'm sure it'll dry out… carry on please… 

Anna:   Also…timekeeping is important to me…  

Narrator:  timekeeping is important to me – 很好！ 

Anna:   I always try to complete my work on time. At university I never  

  handed my assignments in late.  

Paul:   That's good to hear. We like punctuality here….  

Denise:  Excuse me Paul. Sorry it's a bit late – but I thought you might like a biscuit 

  with your tea. 

Paul:   Hmm thanks….oh lovely, custard creams…mmm. Now Hannah, finally I 

wanted to ask you what exactly made you apply for this job at this 

company? 

Anna:   Errrr… ooo… well. The reason I applied⁶ is…. 

Narrator:  怎么了, Anna? 你需要更多时间吗？ 

Anna:   Errr… mmm… 

Narrator:  她会说什么呢？那你又会怎么回答这个问题？请留意下期节目。在本期节目结束前，一
