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（技艺高超的）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．

【回答】

（1）﹣（5）EFDBC

【分析】文章主要讲述了几条关于如何回答面试中最常见问题的建议，可以让你在面试中脱颖而出．

【解答】

（1）E．语境辨析题．在任何面试中"向我介绍一下你自己"是一个必然会被问到的问题．由空后的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，分享一些简历以外能表现自己的事情是一个好主意"可知，E项：Too many people respond to it by giving a recital of their resume．很多人对这个问题的回答（方式）都是复述他们的简历．符合语境，故选E．

（2）F．承上启下题．下文列举Such as you participate in competitive sports， you're an accomplished （技艺高超的） pianist and you're writing your first detective novel．你参加过运动比赛，你是一个技艺高超的钢琴师以及你正在写第一本侦探小说．此处起承上启下的作用，F项：It's also important to tell it in a way that makes you memorable．"以一种让人印象深刻的方式介绍自己也很重要"符合语境．故选F．

（3）D．逻辑推理题．根据上文"The person also wants to know what your sense of passion and purpose is．这个人还想知道你的*和目标是什么．" 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，你要让面试官知道你的*和目标是什么．无论成就大小，只要它表明你在努力提高自己就行．此处应该是列举出"努力"的事例．D项：Running your first 10 kilometers shows you like a challenge．刚开始跑10公里说明你喜欢挑战．符合文意，故选D．

（4）B．段落理解题．根据下一句"Relax， be yourself and tell the truth．放松点，做你自己，说实话．"以及该段的下文可知，此空是本段的中心句，表示"面试要有真诚的态度（Showing honesty is one of the most important things）"．故选B．

（5）C．联系上文题．根据上文Also， if you overstate what you've done or fully invent a story about yourself， you'll be exposed．如果你夸大你所做的，或者编造一个关于你自己的故事，那么你就会有所暴露．一旦暴露，那么你讲述自己相关的事情就会受到质疑．此空与上一句构成顺承关系．C项：And then everything you say about yourself will be questioned．然后你所说的关于你自己的一切都会受到质疑．故选C．
