27、kets on your machine-scoring ANSWER SHEET. 30 Its not just your imagination. In cities from coast to coast, the use of Spanish is booming, and is proliferating in ways no other language has before in the U. S. history-other than English of course. Its this sort of environment that is a cause for con
28、cern for many. Mauro Mujica heads a group called “U. S. English,“ which lobbies for official English laws across the country. Hes concerned that with so many Spanish speakers entering the country, the U. S. will become a nation split by language, much like Canada. “Now were beginning to divide ourse
29、lves, to split along linguistic lines. Were beginning to see pockets of people who speak other languages and no English whatsoever. “ His fear is hardly universal. Gregory Rodriguez is a fellow with the New America Foundation, a non-partisan think-tank based in Washington, D. C. He calls Mujicas arg
30、uments “ridiculous. “ “This process of immigrant enclaves (少数民族聚集地 ) and linguistic enclaves is an age-old American process. Weve all heard the quotes from Benjamin Franklin about his concerns that German- Americans would never assimilate. These concerns are as old as the American republic. “ Rodrig
31、uez argues that the current boom in the use of Spanish is due ahnost entirely to new immigrants, and that their children will, at least for the most part, learn English. He points to 1990 census data, which indicates that by the third generation, two-thirds of all Hispanic children speak English exc
32、lusively. Whether that number is going up or down will be difficult to determine since the Census Bureau didnt track that information in its most recent census. But there may be at least one piece of anecdotal evidence. Spanish-language movie theaters once flourished in the Los Angeles area. There w
33、ere dozens of these theaters just fifteen years ago. Today there are only seven. “There is a myth that somehow immigrants come to the most powerful nation in the world simply to resist its cultural embrace,“ says Rodriguez. “But it is a myth. “ Immigrant enclaves are, of course, common throughout Am
34、erican History. German and Polish enclaves were common throughout the Midwest. The Italians flourished in New York. But those languages largely faded from use in the U. S. Few are predicting that will happen with Spanish. Its here to stay, although we wont know its ultimate impact for generations. 3

40、n which to exhibit your taste for the latest in fashion style, the interview is not the place to do so. With very few unusual exceptions, sandals and sweatshirts are out. Oxfords and business suits are still in. Even though many companies have relaxed the internal company dress code, interviews stil
41、l follow the conservative standard. Dont buck the trend. Unfortunately, most college grads are underprepared with proper interview dress. They feel they can “ get by“ with what is already in their wardrobe. Usually not. Remember that stylish is not conservative. You should be doing the talking, not
42、your clothes. This is not to say that you need to go out and buy a whole new wardrobe. Go for quality over quantity. One or two well-chosen business suits will serve you all the way to the first day on the job and beyond. Then, when you are making some money, you can begin to round out your wardrobe
43、. For now, no one will fault you for wearing the same sharp outfit each time you interview. If you are still not sure how to dress for the interview, call them and ask! But this is one time when you do not want to call the Hiring Managerinstead, ask to be put through to Human Resources. Sure, you ru
44、n the risk of someone in HR thinking you are a social idiot, but thats a lot better than having the Hiring Manager distracted by inappropriate interview dress. While many work environments have shifted to business casual as the work standard, business suits are still the interview standard. When in
45、doubt, it is almost always better to err on the side of conservatism. One final note on interview dress: while it goes without saying that your interview elothes should be neat and clean, very few interviewees give the same time and attention to their shoes. Shoes? Yes, shoes. I am aware of at least
46、 one Corporate Recruiter who forms first impressions based solely on shoes. He subjectively judges that those who pay attention to details like their shoes are also likely to be diligent in their work life. And it is not just that persons opinion. So it is not enough to be elean, pressed, and ironed
47、. Make sure your shoes are conservative, clean, and polished. 37 In paragraph 1, “Dont buck the trend. “ probably means “_“. （ A） Dont lead the trend （ B） Dont resist the trend （ C） Dont follow the trend （ D） Dont go against the trend 38 It is suggested in the passage that for interviews and future
48、jobs, _. （ A） the present clothes of most college graduates are good enough （ B） it is necessary for college graduates to buy everything new （ C） the requirements for proper dress vary greatly in different company （ D） it is necessary to prepare some high-quality business suits to begin with 39 Wear
49、ing the same suit for each interview _. （ A） may not do harm to your image （ B） may not be accepted by most people （ C） will cost you your job opportunity （ D） will affect the interviewers judgment 40 For more information on interview dress, its better for you to call _. （ A） the receptionist （ B） human resources （ C） the service center （ D） the hiring manager 41 The author suggests that the attention paid to shoes _. （ A）
