听力原文:M: Hey, don't look so worried.
W: (whispering)…don't know what to do with all these knives and forks and glasses. What do I do?
M: Ah, so that's the problem. Don't worry. It's easy. Use the cutlery from the outside to the inside. After each course the dirty dishes and cutlery will he taken away. The different glasses are for different kinds of drink. If you get stuck, just watch someone else.
W: OK, OK. I think I've got it. Could you explain some more about etiquette? I don't want to do something that looks really stupid!
M: Well, the most important thing is not to make noise when you eat. Parents always tell their children "don't talk with your mouth full" and "never chew with your mouth open".
W: OK, so that's a bit different. Sometimes it's polite in Asia to make noise. What else?
M: At a formal meal, in a place like this, you should always have your napkin on your lap and don't rest your arms on the table either. If you are at someone's house, it is always polite to compliment the cook. I guess that last part is the same everywhere in the world.
W: Well, although you guys didn't cook it, thanks for a great meal!
M: It's a good job I didn't cook it, I can burn water!
W: What do I do if I need to leave the table? Do I need to say where I'm going?
M: Don't go into too much detail. The safest option is to just say "please excuse me for a minute".
W: OK, well. In that case, please excuse me for a minute.

Ms. Rawson: Thank you. Both Ann and I are full-time counselors. Students either come to us on their own or are referred to us by a tutor. We are here to help them with any problems, no matter how great or small, such as homesickness, relationship difficulties, death and separation, sexual problems, undue stress due to work and so on. You will not be the first to be homesick, find college life stressful, or decisions problematic. So please don't hesitate to come and have a chat if there is anything bothering you.
This is a confidential service but we are willing to arrange with your course directors, your tutors, Student Union officers, career department or doctors.

The first myth is that the aim of interviewing is to obtain the job you want. This is only half correct. The real aim of an interview is to obtain the job you like; and it also implies turning down the job offer you don't want. The reason for some job-seekers' failure is that they become so used to meeting employers' expectations that they often take up the job they don't really want.
The second one, always please the interviewer, is also not true. Instead of pleasing the interviewer, you should please yourself. You'll get nowhere if you try to give answers that will suit a potential employer without considering your own feelings. Of course, don't be hostile — nobody wants to hire someone disagreeable. Take a middle ground between being too agreeable and being hostile. An effective interview is like an exciting encounter in conversation with your seatmate on an airplane.
The next myth is to try to control the interview. Nobody "controls" an interview, neither you nor the interviewer. Actually, it is an exchange of two parties — like making a telephone call. So hang loose when interviewing: never dominate an interview.
The fourth myth is never to interrupt the interviewer. An exciting conversation always makes us feel free — free to interrupt and show different opinions. So when interviewing, try to be relaxed and natural.
The last myth, don't disagree with the interviewer, is another silly myth. If you don't disagree at times, you consent in fact. Don't hesitate to disagree with your interviewer in an agreeable way. And also feel free to change your mind.
