题目

题型：不详难度：来源：

One of the most common questions I am asked is whether, when, and how to follow up after a job interview. Following up in some way is necessary. Yes, you can get a job without it, but if you compete (竞争) with other top candidates (候选人), following up can sometimes help you when the other candidate doesn’t. Here’s how to follow up well:
Send a thank-you note at once. E-mail is fine for this and has the advantage of arriving faster, but handwritten notes are still appreciated (欣赏). And if there are many interviews, send a thank-you note each time.
Find out their timeline. Hopefully, you asked about their timeline in the interview itself, but if you didn’t, follow up within a week to strengthen (强化) your interest and politely ask what they expect their timeline for a decision to be.
Be patient. Most commonly, job seekers are too worried about the result. It doesn’t look worried to express your interest in the job or check in to ask about the timeline.
Don’t be nervous if you don’t hear from them at once. The hiring process (招聘过程) often takes longer than a candidate would like, maybe the decision makers are out of town. If you’re past the time they indicated you would hear something, this isn’t necessarily cause for nervousness. Hiring often ends up taking longer than expected. Just politely follow up, explain you’re very interested but understand that hiring can take time, and ask if they have the latest timeline.
根据上面文章，完成下面的表格，每空一词。

解析

试题分析：短文大意：这篇短文主要从联系方式，时间安排，要有耐心和不要紧张四个方面介绍了，在进行面试时，需要注意的一些问题。
小题1:细节理解题。根据第一段Following up in some way is necessary.描述，可知后续工作在某种程度上是很重要的。故填形容词necessary，必要的。
小题2:根据右栏描述，可知此处指的是，进行后续工作的方式或者说主意。故填复数名词：Ways / Ideas
小题3:细节理解题。根据E-mail is fine for this and has the advantage of arriving faster，描述，可知电子邮件能比手写便条更快速的到达。故填副词比较级faster，更快地。
小题4:细节理解题。根据but handwritten notes are still appreciated (欣赏).描述，可知雇主更喜欢手写的便条。故填handwritten，手写的。
小题5:根据右栏内容，可知此处指的是，找出他们的时间表。故填Find，找出，发现。
小题6:细节理解题。根据follow up within a week to strengthen (强化) your interest 描述，可知此处指的是，强化你的兴趣。故填名词interest，兴趣。抽象名词不可数，故用原形即可。
小题7:细节理解题。根据politely ask what they expect their timeline for a decision to be.描述，可知此处指的是，礼貌地问他们希望在什么时间。结合语境可知本句描述的是客观性动作，故用一般现在时态。主语they是复数形式，故谓语动词用原形，填expect，希望，盼望。
小题8:细节理解题。根据Most commonly, job seekers are too worried about the result.描述，可知大部分求职者都很担心。结合语境可知填形容词common，一般的，通常的，做表语。
小题9:细节理解题。根据最后一段maybe the decision makers are out of town. 描述，可知可能决策者不在镇上。故填介词in，在里面。
小题10:细节理解题。根据最后一段Just politely follow up, explain you’re very interested but understand that hiring can take time,描述，可知此处指的是，礼貌地继续进行下去。故填副词politely，有礼貌地，做状语。
