You must arrive in plenty of time before the interview, so that you give yourself a little time to relax before the interview begins.
　　The impression you make as you walk into the room is very important. Try to find out if the company or organization has rules about dress. Then try to dress according to their regulations.

This report is narrated by Carolyn Weaver.

There are images we have all seen around the world. What makes the particular 52 pictures different is that they were taken by some of the best photographers in the world, says Susan Norton, director of the National Geographic Museum.

“We know that on the news every night and on the sports channels you will be seeing professional soccer. But because soccer is everywhere, we wanted to show people playing soccer everywhere, normal people like you and me, even animals in the exhibition playing soccer,” she told us.

I was walking leisurely on the sidewalk of Xueyuang Road when I heard a loud crash just at the cross about 10 meters away. Two cars crashed together.It was a serious traffic accident.

      Lots of people rushed to the spot to see what had happened, me included. I found two cars were badly damaged with a door knocked off. One driver was blooding on his forehead and another was shut in the taxi. Some people were trying to help the driver get out of the damaged car; others were calling 110 and 120 for help.At that time a lot of cars were jammed on the road.

A few effects suggest themselves at once. It has saved lives by getting rapid word of illness, injury, or fire from remote places. By joining with the elevator to make possible the multi-story residence or office building, it has made possible — for better or worse — the modern city. By bringing about a great leap in the speed and ease with which information moves from place to place, it has greatly accelerated the rate of scientific and technological changes and growth in industry. Beyond doubt it has seriously weakened if not killed the ancient art of letter writing.

No matter whether it’s triggered by a good joke, a cute child or pet, or a pie in the face of a comedian, the simple act of laughing offers therapeutic benefits. Laughter has been shown to reduce stress and help people lose weight. It’s a special tonic for older people, who are prone to loneliness and sad thoughts.

VOA’s Margaret Besheer spent Christmas with some American troops in Baghdad, and files this report.

At a dining hall in Baghdad, where some 2,500 people were going to have their Christmas lunch, the spirit was high among staff and troops, many donning red Santa Claus caps with their uniforms.
