Take an extra 30 minutes to get ready the morning of your interview to look your best. Choose clothing that fits the employer's work environment (formal, semiformal or casual) and properly dress yourself.
Leave your house in plenty of time to avoid being caught in a traffic 4 and to arrive at least 15 minutes early for your interview. This way, you'll arrive with enough time to recheck your appearance in a bathroom mirror.

六、听短文,填单词。
This is the VOA Special English Education Report.
A recent story in the Chronicle of Higher Education said many foreign students report feeling lonely or unwelcome in Australia. Those feelings are among the reasons why Australia is taking a close look at its international education 1 . The government has formed an advisory council to help develop a five-year national strategy for the future of international education in Australia.
But wherever international students go, 2 may not always be easy. The 3__________ of International and Intercultural Communication recently published a study done in the United States.
Elisabeth Gareis of Baruch College in New York surveyed 4 international students. They were attending four-year colleges and graduate schools in the American South and Northeast.
Students from English-speaking countries and from northern and central Europe were 5__________ to be happy with their friendships. But 6 of the international students said they had no close friends in the United States.
And half of the students from East Asia said they were unhappy with the number of American friends they had. Professor Gareis says thirty percent said they wished their friendships could be deeper and more 7 .
ELISABETH GAREIS: "Students from East Asia have cultures that are different on many levels from the culture in the United States. But then there's also 8__________ problems, and maybe some social skills, such as small talk, that are possibly not as important in their 9 countries, where it's not as important to initiate friendships with small talk."
She says many East Asian students blamed themselves for their 10__________ friendships with Americans.
