waiting to be interviewed. They all looked much more confident than she did. She began to feel even

one to be called into the interview room. She had decided by the time that she had no chance of getting
the job, so she felt relaxed as she walked in; she felt that she had nothing to lose.
The three interviewers were all very serious and they didn’t seem to be interested in her. She
