一、

个人能力集中表现在社会荣誉、工作业绩、科研成果、著作等，这里最主要的是著作和工作成果。

著作包括所有出版过的书，发表过的论文。这一项对科研、学术工作者尤为重要。如果内容与所申请的职位密切相关，作者不仅应列入其中，而且可扼要介绍作品内容、社会影响和效果。面试时，应带上作品的原件或复印件。

了解到到底什么是个人能力以后，我们再来看一段对话：

A：Would you talk about your merits?

B：Yes， sir. When I was the sales manager of Beijing Friendship Store， I succeeded in raising yearly sales volume by 25% at profit margins offrom 50% to 80%.

A：Have you received any honors or rewards?

B：Yes. I got the title of “Advanced Worker” in 1992 and 1994.

A：Do you have any publications?

B：Yes. My book entitled A Preliminary Survey of Controlling Inflation was published by China Finance Publishing House in 1993.

对话中出现了一些词组用法和单词：

Words & Expressions：

Beijing Friendship Store： 北京友谊商店

Succeed in： 成功

sales volume：销售量

Advanced Worker：先进工作者

A Preliminary Survey of Controlling Inflation：抑制通货膨胀初探

China Finance Publishing House：中国金融出版社

如今各个用人单位的语言能力，尤其是外语能力，能懂得一门外语确实在应聘时有一些优势。今天这一讲我们就来讲讲在面试时如何表达自己的语言能力。看下面这段对话：

A：You will mainly use English in this job. Do you think you can make yourself understood in English with ease?

B：Yes， I think I speak English quite fluently. Ive often explained historical places in Xian to foreign tourists in English. They say my English is quitegood.

A：How long have you been learning English?

B：Oh， more than ten years. I started learning English when I was still in a primary school from a foreign teacher.

A：Well， perhaps thats the reason why you are so fluent in it.

B：Thank you.
