Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following passage.
Job interviews can generally be divided into three types.
The first is what I would call the traditional interview. This is usually just a series of standard questions about qualifications, work experience and expectations. So what you have here is basically a list of quite direct questions, like what duties did you have in your previous job. This is still the model for a lot of interviews today. In my view it’s not the best to select staff.
Then there is the case interview. Here the interviewer presents a problem and a series of questions to find out how the candidate would approach the problem. It might go something like this, ‘A company wants to hire more graduates without spending more than its current budget. What would you advise them to do?’This can be particularly challenging, for you need to analyze the problem and solve it.
The third type is known as the behavioral interview. The questions are usually designed to find out about how the candidates handle tricky situations in the past. A typical question might be ‘Can you give me an example of a situation where you had to follow orders that you didn’t agree with?’ This opens up a lot of information and the interviewer gets to see more of the candidate.
Questions:
14. What kind of questions are usually asked in the traditional interview?
15. What does the case interview focus on about the candidate?
16. What does the speaker mainly talk about?
14.A. Economic questions.B. Routine questions.
C. Academic questions.D. Challenging questions.
15.A. Work experience.B. Educational qualifications.
C. Problem-solving abilities.D. lnfomation-gathering abilities.
16. A. Features of different types of interview.
B. Skills in asking interview questions.
C. Changes in three interview models.
D. Suggestions for different job interviews.

15. C. Problem-solving abilities.
16. A. Features of different types of interview.

C. 学术性问题——短文未提及。
D. 具有挑战性的问题——短文提及，但与问题无关。这是case interview所问问题的特点。

上海博物馆拟举办一次名画展，现就展出场所（博物馆还是社区图书馆）征集公众意见，假设你是王敏，给上海博物馆写一封信表达你的想法。你的信必须满足以下要求：
1. 简述你写信的目的及你对场所的选择；
2. 说明你的理由（从便利性，专业性等方面对这两个场所进行对比）
To whom it may concern:
I’ve learned that an art exhibition is to be held and that you’re collecting suggestions on its location. I’m writing this letter to share with you my opinions.
In my opinion, it is more advisable to hold the art exhibition in Shanghai Museum than in community libraries. My reasons are as follows.
On one hand, it is more convenient for people to get to Shanghai Museum which is located in the center of the city. And the museum is much more spacious than community libraries, which provides visitors with a more comfortable environment for appreciating art.
On the other hand, as a well-known museum, Shanghai Museum is more professional and experienced in holding art exhibitions. Its professional security guards and advanced facilities can better protect those famous paintings from being damaged or stolen.
Therefore, I suggest the exhibition be held in the museum.
