我们怎么写概要
How to write a summary?
1 随着2017上海英语高考新增加summary writing版块,大家也越来越多地开始关注“概要写作”,为2018高考做好准备。今天,我们将从学习和教学的角度来谈谈“概要写作”。
Whatis a summary?
通常,Summary 的定义如下:A summary is a written, shortened version of a piece of writing in which you use your wording to express the main ideas. 表示引用。
3、长度:Lee Brandon和Kelly Brandon 等人认为:Reduce the length of the original by about two-thirds, although the exact reduction will vary, depending on the content of the original. 所以summary的长度大约就应该在原文的1/3左右。

Preparing for Your First Job Interview
By Jim Sweeny
You’ve just graduated from school. Now comes the scary part: interviewing for your first job. For many recent graduates, this is an anxiety-provoking time. However, there are some simple ways to prepare for this challenging experience.
First, you should make a list of the questions you might be asked. In many job interviews, you have to answer questions about your academic experience and how it has prepared you for the job. For example, you might be asked to discuss how your participation in student government or sports has given you experience working on a team. You will, of course, also be asked how your experience and talents fit with the company’s goals.
Once you’ve got your question, you should then think about possible answers and practice responding to them. Employers will expect you to talk in detail about your experience and use examples. Make sure that your answers describe particular situations you faced, the actions you took and the results you achieved. Once you’ve got your responses, try practicing on your friends or family members. This will make you feel comfortable speaking in front of a person.
Finally, don’t get discouraged if you aren’t hired the first, second, or third time you interview. Think of every interview as practice for the most important one: the interview that will get you a job.
