2005 年阅读理解真题

Michael Phelps has already been considered by some as the greatest all-around

competitor in the history of his sport. At the 2004 US Trials, Phelps qualifies for Athens in

six individual events across every possible stroke. He finally earned five titles of Olympic

champion.Should Phelps match Mark Spitz's record in Athens or Beijing in 2008, he will

earn a $1million bonus from his sponsor. Michael Phelps was born on June 30, 1985. His

father was a good athlete, and passed his ability on to his kids.

Michael's coach told Michael's mother that her son was a rare talent. Long-limbed

with big hands and feet, he took to instruction very well, loved to work hard and never

seemed nervous in competition. By all accounts, his father is perfect for swimmer. His big

hands and feet are like paddles (浆)in the water. The butterfly is his signature stroke, but

he's shown the ability to dominate in any event.

In 1999, Michael broke a record in the 200-meter butterfly for the 20-year-old age

group at the Junior Nationals. At 15, Michael became the youngest swimmer to compete

Sydney Olympics for the US in 68 years. In an astonishing performance, he medaled six

times and set five world records. Michael won the 200-meter butterfly with a new world

mark, and also turned un record times in the 100-meter butterfly and 200-meter individual

medley (混合泳)--doing so on the same day, which was a first in swimming history.

Outside of his swimming career, Michael was a normal teenager. He didn't like

getting out of the bed in the morning; but refused to slow down once his day began.

Michael has his sights set on more than Olympic glory. He wants to transform his sport

the way other great athletes like Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods have.

Most personal managers agree that job interviews are one of the least objective

recruitment methods. But the advantages of testing are not going to change the attraction

of the interview to employers. The appeal of the interview has everything to do with the

human factor.

Most people believe that they are a reasonable judge of character and trust their

instinctive feelings. We might use some kind of teat to aid the selection process, but we

usually pick a candidate who interviews well, has good qualifications and an impressive

work record.

But suppose the candidate lies or is less than completely honest. "This can be a

serious problem for employers," examine Alan Conrad, Chief Executive at Optimus

Recruitment. "The most difficult liars to find are those who tell half-truths rather than

complete lies." Research shows that up to 75 percent of resumes are inaccurate on

purpose. The most common practice is omission.

Interviewer should therefore concentrate on areas of uncertainty such as gaps

between periods of employment and job descriptions that seem strange. "Focusing on

these areas will force candidates to tell the truth or become increasingly dishonest. This

is usually when people signal their anxiety by their body language. Sweat on the upper

lip, false smiles and nervous hand movements all indicate discomfort.'

Conrad does not suggest an aggressive policy-style interview technique, but insists

that close inspection of a resume is absolutely essential. Only by asking the right

questions can you confirm the suitability of the candidate or put pressure on those who

are being less than completely honest.

21. The best title of this passage can be

IAI How to catch out the dishonest Candidate

[BI How to Find a Job by Tricks

ICI Disadvantages of Job Interviews

ID] Advantages of Job Interviews

22. The liars hard to recognize are those who tell

23. How were the job applicants able to lie without being detected?

IAI By leaving out some necessary information

lB] By providing more information than needed

ICI By using their body language

ID] By telling some unbelievable lies

24. In order to pick up a qualified and an honest candidate, Conrad suggests that we

[Al examine the resumes carefully

[B] inspect the candidates aggressively

[C] correct the resumes intentionally

ID] compare one's resume with others'
