成敗系于一線的投資計(jì)劃 Ithascometothepointwhereitiseithermakeorbreak.

現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)到了成敗攸關(guān)的時(shí)刻。語(yǔ)言解析2.Trytothinkofweaknesseswhichcan’thaveanegativeimpactonyourwork.試著想想對(duì)你的工作不會(huì)有負(fù)面影響的缺點(diǎn)。1）本句是祈使句，其中包含一個(gè)由which引導(dǎo)的定語(yǔ)從句，which作

定語(yǔ)從句的主語(yǔ)。2）haveanimpacton意為“對(duì)……有影響”

新技術(shù)的發(fā)展繼續(xù)影響著學(xué)習(xí)。語(yǔ)言解析3.Showyouhavesomekindofplanforthefuturebythinkingaboutrealisticgoalsbeforetheinterview.

面試前要考慮現(xiàn)實(shí)的目標(biāo)，以表明你對(duì)未來有一定的計(jì)劃。 some意為“某些（個(gè)）的”，用于不清楚是什么時(shí)，與單數(shù)名詞連用。 somekindof

意為“某種”。e.g.Thetraindidn’tstartasscheduledforsomereason.

火車因?yàn)槟承┰驔]有按照預(yù)定時(shí)間出發(fā)。 Allhumansdohavesomekindofinnatementalability.

人類確實(shí)都具有某種與生俱來的心智能力。成功還是失??？女主持：歡迎各位！今晚，我們將關(guān)注三位求職者的求職過程。他們會(huì)成功還是失敗呢？我們的職業(yè)咨詢顧問斯馬特先生將會(huì)在這里對(duì)求職者的表現(xiàn)作出評(píng)價(jià)。首先讓我們來看一下如何巧妙地回答高難度的求職面試問題。問題1：你最大的缺點(diǎn)是什么？求職者A：老實(shí)說，我不太有條理。有幾次我把重要的文件弄丟了。斯馬特先生：哦，天啊！這位求職者很誠(chéng)實(shí)，但這不是你應(yīng)該在面試中承認(rèn)的缺點(diǎn)。試著想想對(duì)你的工作不會(huì)有負(fù)面影響的缺點(diǎn)。問題2：你為什么想要這份工作？求職者B：嗯，工資很高，而且您能提供公司用車，這點(diǎn)也很棒。斯馬特先生：另一個(gè)誠(chéng)實(shí)的回答。但不幸的是，這位求職者并沒有說她能為公司做些什么——只是提到了獲得、獲得、獲得!那她能給工作帶來什么呢？參考譯文問題3：你認(rèn)為五年后你會(huì)變成什么樣子？求職者C：我希望在努力工作五年后，自己能夠承擔(dān)更多的責(zé)任。斯馬特先生：這個(gè)回答很好。求職者很有野心，但是她沒有說她要當(dāng)老板（即使她確實(shí)是這么想的?。?。面試前要考慮現(xiàn)實(shí)的目標(biāo)，以表明你對(duì)未來有一定的計(jì)劃。女主持：太有趣了！那么，通過這些求職者的回答，我們可以發(fā)現(xiàn)面試前認(rèn)真準(zhǔn)備是很重要的。在面試前想好自己要說什么，讓自己看起來真實(shí)又真誠(chéng)，進(jìn)而給面試官留下最佳印象。

不要走開，廣告過后，斯馬特先生將會(huì)為大家提供面試時(shí)穿著得體的建議！參考譯文
