answer sheet to indicate correct word or phrase that best fits each of the numbered
blanks.
The first question we might ask is: What can you learn in college that will help you
in being an employee? The schools teach (55)
many things of value to the future
accountant, doctor or electrician. Do they also teach anything of value to the future
employee? Yes, they teach the one thing that it is perhaps most valuable for the future
employee (56)
. But very few students bother to learn it. This basic skill is the
ability to organize and express ideas in writing and in speaking. This means that your
success as an employee will depend on your ability to communicate with people and to
(57)
your own thoughts and ideas to them so they will (58)
understand
what you are driving and be persuaded.
Of course, skill in expression is not enough (59)
itself. You must have
something to say in the first place. The effectiveness of your job depends (60)
your ability to make other people understand your work as they do on the quality of the
work itself.
Expressing one‘s thoughts is one skill that the school can (61)
teach. The
foundations for skill in expression have to be (62)
early: an interest in and an ear
(63)

language; experience in organizing ideas and data, in brushing aside the
irrelevant, and above all the habit of verbal expression. If you do not these foundations
(64)
your school years, you may never have an opportunity again.
