No-nos include asking about compensation for the job, what the company does, if you can work from home, how much

165、vacation time youll get, or how often you can expect pay raise or promotion etc. Ask queries that will help “match up your skills, experiences and accomplishments with what theyre looking for,” advises Raz.

191、核对。一是不给标题，让考生在理解短文后添加标题。这是检测考生总体把握短文内容的能力，因为只有从整体上把握了短文内容，才能给出涵盖短文内容所有方面的纲领性的标题。 给短文添加标题的技巧是先略读和跳读，看短文由几段组成，每一段讲什么，然后将这些内容合起来，从中概括出涵盖这些方面的标题。如果选项缺少必要的限定词，其涵盖的范围就过大，不能作为标题；如只涵盖短文中某一段的内容，其范围又过小，也不能做文章标题。 在语言测试中，短文标题的正确选项中必定会出现短文的主题词，而直接由文章首句或某句话中摘抄的词语编成的选项为干扰项。 BackNext 2.
