Passage one
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.
Interest in pursuing international careers has soared in recent years, enhanced by
chronic
(
长久的
)
personnel
shortages
that
are
causing
companies
to
search
beyond
their home borders for talent.
Professionals seek career experience outside of their home countries for a variety
of reasons. They may feel
the need to recharge their batteries with a new
challenge.
They
may
want
a
position
with
more
responsibility
that
encourages
creativity
and
initiative.
Or
they
may
wish
to
expose
their
children
to
another
culture,
and
the
opportunity to learn a
second language.
When applying for a job, one usually has to submit a resume or curriculum vitae
(CV).
The
two
terms
generally
mean
the
same
thing:
a
one-or
two-page
document
describing
one
’
s
educational
qualifications
and
professional
experience.
However,
guidelines for
preparing a resume are constantly changing. The
best advice is to find
out
what
is
appropriate
regarding
the
corporate
(
公司
)
culture,
the
country
culture,
and
the
culture
of
the
person
making
the
hiring
decision.
The
challenge
will
be
to
embrace two or more cultures in one
document. The following list is a good place to
start.
●
“
Educational requirements differ from country to country. In almost every
case of
‘
cross-border
’
job hunting, just stating the title of your degree will not bean
adequate
description.
Provide
the
reader
with
details
about
your
studies
and
any
related
experience.
”
●
Pay
attention
to
the
resume
format
you
use-chronological
or
reverse-chronological order.
Chronological order means listing your
‘
oldest
’
work
experience
first.
Reverse-chronological
order
means
listing
your
current
or
most
recent experience first. Most countries
have preferences about which format is most
acceptable.
If
you
find
no
specific
guidelines,
the
general
preference
is
for
the
reverse-chronological
format.
”
●
If you are submitting your resume in English, find out if the recipient (
收件
人
) uses British English or American English because there are variations between the
two
versions.
For
example,
university
education
is
often
referred
to
as
‘
tertiary
education
’
in the United Kingdom, but this term is almost never used in the United
States. A reader who is
unfamiliar with these variations may assume that
your resume
contains errors.

完整形
式应是
