二．Directions: Listen to the passage(s) three times.
There are various types of questions asked at a job interview. Most job interviews start with chit-chat type of questions. They are designed to break the ice and get the conversation flowing. Examples are questions like"Did it take you long to get here?","Did you find the place all right?","Were you able to find parking ?" Most of these just require a"yes, no problem" type of response ; you can elaborate if you wish. However, ensure that you don’t provide information that will give them a bad impression . If you say something like"It took me ages to get here. The traffic was so bad; I hate traveling to this side of town", it would not make a good impression. If this is the place where you would be working, they would automatically be worried that you will be late for work everyday . More questions will be asked to find out a bit more about you. They might be historical questions regarding your previous
employment or education. , or they may be hypothetical questions starting with"What if...?". These are aimed at finding out how you would handle a situation or at finding out your personal views in certain areas. Whenever answering a job interview question, give as much information as you can. Tell them why, where, when and how. In other words use samples to prove what you are saying. Make a statement, then support it by giving a sample of a situation and how you handled it .

Sometimes markets surge for no apparent reason; masses of people suddenly want something, and the resulting demand can't be met immediately. For example, during the SARS epidemic, there was a high demand for facial masks in several countries --- and many entrepreneurs capitalized on this business idea.
A similar effect is also created by larger social trends . There is much more of a demand for home-care services for the elderly than is currently being supplied. And the trend for pets to be treated as family members continues, creating demand for all kinds of pet-related services that didn't exist even ten years ago.Look at existing businesses and the products and services they offer, and then determine if there's a need for more of those products or services . If there is, develop business ideas to fit the market gap.
Do you have any ideas for starting a business now? Write your business ideas down.
Think about them for some time. Keep an open mind and continue to assess everything you read and hear from a business point of view. You don't have to run with the first business idea you think of; you want to discover the idea that's best suited to your skills and desires.Dream, think, plan, and you'll be ready to transform that business idea into the business you've always wanted .
