In modern society, receiving systematic college education seems a necessary way for success as a graduate from first-class university may always get more opportunities than others. However, if it is gold, it will shine one day. In this article, we will get to know three most successful people in U.S. who.
<span class='text_page_counter'>(3)</span> never finished their college education. Following experiences of these successful dropouts may give you some inspiration. 1. Bill Gates Harvard’s campus paper “Harvard Crimson” called Bill Gates “Harvard’s most successful dropout”, while the rest of the world preferred to name him “the world’s richest man” for more than a decade. Now, even not on the top, he is still among the list of the world’s wealthiest people. Gates entered Harvard in the fall of 1973. Two years later, he dropped out to found Microsoft with friend Paul Allen. And in 2007, he finally received an honorary doctorate from Harvard. 2. Steve Jobs The iPad, even Buzz Lightyear probably wouldn’t have existed if Steve Jobs stayed in school. Because his family couldn’t afford his college education, Jobs had to drop out of Reed College just after entering for 6 months. Then he found Apple, NeXT Computer and Pixar, which had made great influences on development of modern technique and culture. However, this wizard thought that his brief college education was not worthless. 3. Frank Lloyd Wright As the America’s most celebrated architect, Wright spent more time on designing colleges rather than attending classes in them. Once spent one year in the University of Wisconsin-Madison, then he left for Chicago and started to learn from Louis Sullivan, the “father of modernism.” Wright’ s splendid resume included more than 500 works, most famous of which are Fallingwater and New York City's Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum. Question 31: What does “dropouts” in Paragraph 1 mean? A. Hardworking students. B. Very successful students. C. Students failing to finish their school education. D. Students from poor families. Question 32: Which of the following is right according to Paragraph 1? A. People graduating from famous universities are more likely to get jobs. B. Many successful people had the experience of giving up their school education. C. If one has a lot of gold, he will become very rich one day. D. We should stop our college education to follow in those successful people’s steps. Question 33: According to the writer, Bill Gates _________. A. is richer than any other man in the world B. is well-known in Harvard University C. finally finished his study at Harvard and got a doctorate degree D. is the only founder of Microsoft Question 34: Which of the following statements can’t be learned from the last two paragraphs? A. The reason for Jobs’ dropping his college education is that his parents couldn’t pay for it. B. Jobs thought his six-month college education gave him no help. C. Wright’s teacher was a very famous artist. D. Wright is the designer of New York City’s Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum. Question 35: What does the author want to tell us in this passage? A. Successful people often have unordinary life experience. B. College education is not so important to one’s success. C. People from poor families are more likely to give up their college education. D. Even without college education, one can still achieve success with one’s hard work. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct word or phrase that best fits each of the numbered blanks from 36 to 40. Many people have forgotten what the world was like before TV. But today it has become an integral part of our lives. No medium can compare with TV as a means of information, entertainment and education. TV now plays such an important role in so many people’s lives that it is essential for us to try to decide (36)_______ it is bad or good. First of all, TV is not only a convenient source of entertainment, but also a (37)_______ cheap one. For a family of 4, for example, it is more convenient as well as cheaper to sit comfortably at home than to go out. They don’t have to pay for expensive tickets. All they have to do is to turn on TV and they can.
<span class='text_page_counter'>(4)</span> see films, political discussions and the latest exciting football matches. Some people say that this is fist where the danger lies. The TV viewers need do nothing: they (38)______ no choices, they’re completely passive and don’t even use their legs. TV, people often say, informs about current events and the latest developments in science and politics. A lot of good films, music programs have appeared recently on TV. (39)_______ here again there is a danger. We get to like watching TV so much that it begins to dominate our lives. A friend of mine told me that when his TV set broke he and his family suddenly found that they had much more time to do things. The most important thing which is really criticizing is poor quality of the programs and its harmful effect on children. For example the film “Natural Born Killers” teaches children to kill and there was one accident in France when a group of teenagers kill their parents. There are many arguments for and against TV. I think we must understand that TV in itself is neither good (40)______ bad. TV is as good or as bad as we make it.

A warm drink of milk before bed has long been the best choice for those wanting a good night’s sleep. But now a study has found it really does help people nod off - if it is milked from a cow at night. Researchers have discovered that “night milk” contains more melatonin, which has been proven to help people feel sleepy and reduce anxiety. The study, by researchers from Seoul, South Korea, involved mice being fed with dried milk powder made from cows milked both during the day and at night. Those given night milk, which contained 10 times the amount of melatonin, were less active and less anxious than those fed with the milk collected during daytime, according to the study published in The Journal of Medicinal Food. Night milk quickened the start of sleep and caused the mice to sleep longer. While the effect of cows milk harvested at different time has not been tested on humans up to now, taking melatonin drugs has been suggested to those who are struggling to fall asleep at night. Previous studies have also indicated that milk can be excellent for helping sleep because of the calcium content, which helps people to relax. Milk is also sugar-free and additive-free with nutritionists recommending skimmed milk as the best choice before bed as it is the least fattening. The more fat you take in before bedtime, the greater burden you will put on your body at night. Question 41: According to the text, the mice fed with daytime milk _________.

Millions of people are using cellphones today. In many places, it is actually considered unusual not to use one. In many countries, cellphones are very popular with young people. They find that the phones are more than a means of communication - having a mobile phone shows that they are cool and connected. The explosion in mobile phone use around the world has made some health professionals worried. Some doctors are concerned that in the future many people may suffer health problems from the use of mobile phones. In England, there has been a serious debate about this issue. Mobile phone companies are worried about the negative publicity of such ideas. They say that there is no proof that mobile phones are bad for your health. On the other hand, medical studies have shown changes in the brain cells of some people who use mobile phones. Signs of change in the tissues of the brain and head can be detected with modern scanning equipment. In one case, a traveling salesman had to retire at young age because of serious memory loss. He couldn't remember even simple tasks. He would often forget the name of his own son. This man used to talk on his mobile phone for about six hours a day, every day of his working week, for a couple of years. His family doctor blamed his mobile phone use, but his employer's doctor didn't agree. What is it that makes mobile phones potentially harmful? The answer is radiation. High-tech machines can detect very small amounts of radiation from mobile phones. Mobile phone companies agree that there is some radiation, but they say the amount is too small to worry about. As the discussion about their safety continues, it appears that it's best to use mobile phones less often. Use your regular phone if you want to talk for a long time. Use your mobile phone only when you really need it. Mobile phones can be very useful and convenient, especially in emergencies. In the future, mobile phones may have a warning label that says they are bad for your health. So for now, it's wise not to use your mobile phone too often.

Arriving immigrants depended mainly on predecessors from their homeland to help them start a new life. In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, several European nations instituted public-welfare programs. But such a movement was slow to take hold in the United States because the rapid pace of industrialization and the ready availability of farmland seemed to confirm the belief that anyone who was willing to work could find a job. Most of the programs started during the Depression era were temporary relief measures, but one of the programs - Social Security - has become an American institution. Paid for by deductions from the paychecks of working people, Social Security ensures that retired persons receive a modest monthly income and also provides unemployment insurance, disability insurance, and other assistance to those who need it. Social Security payments to retired persons can start at age 62, but many wait until age 65, when the payments are slightly higher. Recently, there has been concern that the Social Security fund may not have enough money to fulfill its obligations in the 21st century, when the population of elderly Americans is expected to increase dramatically. Policy makers have proposed various ways to make up the anticipated deficit, but a long-term solution is still being debated. In the years since Roosevelt, other American presidents have established assistance programs. These include Medicaid and Medicare; food stamps, certificates that people can use to purchase food; and public housing which is built at federal expense and made available to persons on low incomes. Needy Americans can also turn to sources other than the government for help. A broad spectrum of private charities and voluntary organizations is available. Volunteerism is on the rise in the United States, especially among retired persons. It is estimated that almost 50 percent of Americans over age 18 do volunteer work, and nearly 75 percent of U.S. households contribute money to charity. Câu 43: New immigrants to the U.S. could seek help from . A. the people who came earlier B. the US government agencies D. volunteer organizations C. only charity organizations Câu 44: It took welfare programs a long time to gain a foothold in the U.S. due to the fast growth of .

B Giải thích: Trọng âm của từ anthem rơi vào âm tiết thứ nhất, còn các từ còn lại trọng âm rơi vào âm tiết thứ 2. Apply: /ə'plai/ Attend: /ə'tend/.
<span class='text_page_counter'>(22)</span> Appear: /ə'piə/ Anthem: /'ænθəm/. 3. D clear đọc là /iə/, các từ còn lại đọc là /i:/. 4. A laid đọc là /ei/, còn lại đọc là /eə/. 5. B Đây là câu rút gọn chủ ngũ khi chủ ngữ ở vế 1 và 2 cùng chủ ngữ. Chủ ngữ trong vế 1 là he (he was educated in the UK), nhưng chủ ngữ ở mệnh đề 2 lại là his qualifications sai.. 6. B Giải thích: film directions → film directors (các đạo diễn phim).. 7. D Cấu trúc song song: she is honest → her honesty vì trong một chuỗi liệt kê thì các từ (cụm từ) phải cùng thuộc 1 lớp từ loại.Trong câu này her intelligence và cheerful disposition là cụm danh từ thì sau từ nối and cũng phải là 1 cụm danh từ. 8: D Giải thích: Động từ trong mệnh đề chính của câu trên được chia ở dạng tương lai hoàn thành trong quá khứ (would have gone) do đó động từ ở mệnh đề If tương ứng phải ở dạng quá khứ hoàn thành (hadn’t been). Câu trên thuộc mẫu câu điều kiện loại III (không có thật trong quá khứ): If + QKHT (had done), S + would have done.. 9: A Giải thích: according to sth (theo như cái gì), because of (bởi vì), adding up (tính tổng, cộng tất cả lại), resulting in (dẫn tới kết quả). “The number of points scored” là điều kiện để xét giải thưởng nên ta phải dùng “according to” . Khi đó câu trên được hiểu là “Các giải thưởng được trao theo số lượng điểm ghi được.”. 10: C Giải thích: Câu trên bắt đầu bằng While (trong khi mà), do vậy nó diễn đạt 2 vế mang nghĩa trái ngược nhau. Chúng ta thấy mệnh đề “While southern California is densely populated…(Trong khi ở phía Nam California dân số đông đúc…) mang nghĩa khẳng định nên mệnh đề còn lại phải mang nghĩa phủ định. Do vậy few people (ít có người/ ít người) là đáp án chính xác. a number people, many people đều mang nghĩa có nhiều người, a few of people (một vài người).. 11: A Giải thích: so that (nên), if (nếu), such as (như là), as if (như thể). Mệnh đề đứng trước phục vụ cho mục đích được nêu ở mệnh đề sau nên “so that” là đáp án. Khi này câu được hiểu là “Tòa nhà có một bộ máy dò khói nên bất kỳ ngọn lửa.
<span class='text_page_counter'>(23)</span> nào cũng bị dập tắt ngay tức khắc.”. 12: C Giải thích: động từ trần thuật trong câu được chia ở thì quá khứ đơn giản “was announced” do vậy các đáp án are injured (động từ chia ở thể bị động thời hiện tại đơn giản), và have been injured (động từ chia ở bị động.
<span class='text_page_counter'>(24)</span> thời hiện tại hoàn thành) không phải là sự lựa chọn chính xác. Chủ ngữ đứng gần động từ cần được chia nhất ở dạng ngôi thứ ba số ít vì thế đáp án đúng là was injured.. 13: D Giải thích: counterproductive (mang tính hiệu quả trái với mong muốn), unproductive (không mang tính hữu ích), productivity (năng suất), productive (hữu ích). Xét về mặt ý nghĩa thì đáp án productive là phù hợp hơn cả. Khi đó câu được hiểu là “Hai quốc gia này đã tiến tới một hợp hiệp định thông qua các cuộc đàm phán được coi là mang tính hữu ích.”. 14: C Giải thích: ta có cấu trúc to persit in sth/ Ving mang nghĩa khăng khăng làm điều gì.. 15: A Giải thích: so as to (để/ để mà), so that (nên), in view of (xét thấy, bởi vì), with a view to (với ý định/ với hy vọng). Về mặt ý nghĩa của câu thì so as to là phù hợp hơn cả. Khi này câu được hiểu là “Đảm bảo có ít nhất một khoảng trống 3cm để cho vừa đủ lỗ thông gió.”. 16: D Giải thích: chúng ta có cấu trúc would like to do sth mang nghĩa thích làm điều gì đó.. 17: C Giải thích: cụm từ to trade sth in mang nghĩa đổi cái cũ lấy cái mới (có các thêm tiền).. 18: C Giải thích: cụm từ to knock down mang nghĩa phá đổ (nhà), dỡ (nhà).. 19: A Giải thích: such that mang nghĩa đến nỗi mà/ đến mức mà là đáp án chính xác. Khi này câu được hiểu là “Nỗi tức giận đến mức làm cô ấy òa khóc.”. 20. C Cảm ơn vì món quà thật tuyệt/ mình rất vui khi bạn thích nó. 21. C Bạn có muốn ăn gì không/Không, cảm ơn nha, giờ mình chưa đói. 22. D scruple = qualm: sự do dự, ngại ngần.
<span class='text_page_counter'>(25)</span> distress: sự phiền muộn impunity: sự miễn tội perservere: sự kiên trì. 23. C. expertise = mastery: thông thạo việc gì.
<span class='text_page_counter'>(26)</span> activity: hoạt động courage: sự can đảm effort: sự cố gắng. 24. B. dormant ≠ active: im lìm, không hoạt động ≠ hoạt động tích cự clever: thông minh energetic: mạnh mẽ, tràn đầy năng lượng invisible: vô hình. 25. B. abate: làm dịu đi ≠ augment: làm tăng lên. 26. A Giải thích: It trong “it was very dangerous” thay thế cho cả mệnh đề “David drove so fast”. Viết lại câu đã cho bằng cách dùng mệnh đề quan hệ với which – which có thể thay thế cho mệnh đề đứng trước.. 27: C Giải thích: Câu nói trực tiếp là câu mệnh lệnh và có thái độ ra lệnh (động từ abandon và dấu chấm cảm cuối câu). Tương ứng với nó ở dạng gián tiếp ta dùng order sb + to infinitive (ra lệnh cho ai đó làm gì).. 28: C Giải thích: to undervalue = to have a low opinion: đánh giá thấp, coi rẻ, coi thường. Câu C là cách viết lại của câu đã cho bằng cách dùng cụm từ tương đương.. 29: B Giải thích: “Shall I make you a coffee?” là một câu mời lịch sự do đó khi chuyển sang gián tiếp ta dùng động từ offer (đề nghị, đưa ra mời).. 30: B Giải thích: No sooner…than: ngay sau khi…thì. Câu đã cho có nghĩa như sau: “Ngay sau khi cô ấy đặt điện thoại xuống thì sếp của cô ấy gọi lại”. Các câu C, D đều sai về mặt ngữ pháp. Câu C phải đảo động từ lên trước chủ ngữ vì có trạng từ đứng đầu câu. Câu D sai vì sau without không là mệnh đề mà phải là danh từ hoặc Ving. Câu A sai về mặt ngữ nghĩa: “Ngay khi sếp cô ấy gọi lại, cô ấy đặt luôn điện thoại xuống” Đáp án đúng là B. Để tham khảo phương pháp làm bài tập dạng này mời bạn tham khảo tại đây.. 31: B Giải thích: Chỗ trống cần điền là một đại từ quan hệ bổ sung ý nghĩa cho cụm từ “this complex force” nên đại từ chỉ vật “which” là phương án thích hợp nhất. Lưu ý ta không thể dùng “what” vì mệnh đề quan hệ không có hàm ý nghi vấn, dấu.
<span class='text_page_counter'>(27)</span> chấm hỏi là của cụm từ “how much” ở đầu câu.. 32: B Giải thích: Run: chạy (người và động vật); blow: thổi, cuốn đi (gió); flow: chảy (nước); spread: trải, căng ra, bày ra. “130 km/h” trong đoạn văn là con số chỉ sức gió trong cơn mưa nên động từ “blow” là đáp án..
<span class='text_page_counter'>(28)</span> 33: D Giải thích: Pay: trả; create: tạo ra; result: xảy ra; cause: gây ra. Ta có cấu trúc to cause damage: gây thiệt hại. Trong đoạn văn trên có xuất hiện “damage” với vai trò là chủ ngữ trong câu nên động từ dạng bị động phải điền vào chỗ trống ở đây là “caused”. 34: D Giải thích: Strength: sức mạnh, cường độ, mặt mạnh; length: độ dài; power: quyền năng; force: đơn vị đo sức gió. Sau chỗ trống là số 7 chỉ sức gió (cấp 7) nên danh từ phải điền chính là force. 35: C Giải thích: Đứng trước chỗ trống cần điền là cụm từ even though: mặc dù (chỉ ý ngược lại với mệnh đề đứng trước) nên unlike (không giống với…) là đáp án.. 36: B Giải thích: “They find that the phones are more than a means of communication - having a mobile phone shows that they are cool and connected.” Cool đồng nghĩa với fashionable hoặc stylish.. 37: B Giải thích: “On the other hand, medical studies have shown changes in the brain cells of some people who use mobile phones”. Brain cells = the smallest units of the brain: tế bào não. 38: C Giải thích: a means of communication: phương tiện/ cách thức giao tiếp. Do đó means đồng nghĩa với method.. 39: B Giải thích: “In one case, a traveling salesman had to retire at young age because of serious memory loss. He couldn't remember even simple tasks. He would often forget the name of his own son. This man used to talk on his mobile phone for about six hours a day, every day of his working week, for a couple of years. His family doctor blamed his mobile phone use, but his employer's doctor didn't agree.” Như vậy việc dùng điện thoại di động có thể gây ảnh hưởng đến các chức năng về mặt thần kinh. Đáp án của câu là cause some mental malfunction.. 40: D Giải thích: “In one case, a traveling salesman had to retire at young age because of serious memory loss. He couldn't remember even simple tasks.”. 41: D Giải thích: “What is it that makes mobile phones potentially harmful? The answer is radiation.” Radiation chính là những tia vô hình - invisible rays.. 42: B Giải thích: Bài đọc đề cập đến 2 mặt của một vấn đề. Tác giả đưa ra sự tiện lợi hữu ích của điện thoại di động đồng thời cũng nêu lên những tác hại có thể gây cho con người. Đề tựa phù hợp nhất cho bài đọc trên là: “Technological Innovations and Their Price” vì nó thể hiện được đúng nội dung của bài..
<span class='text_page_counter'>(29)</span> 43: A Giải thích: Bằng chứng cho câu trả lời này nằm trong câu “Arriving immigrants depended mainly on predecessors from their homeland to help them start a new life.” Trong đó, từ predecessors có nghĩa tương đương với the people who came earlier (những người đến trước).. 44: A.
<span class='text_page_counter'>(30)</span> Giải thích: Trong câu “several European nations instituted public-welfare programs. But such a movement was slow to take hold in the United States because the rapid pace of industrialization” từ fast growth cùng nghĩa với từ rapid pace. Vậy dáp án A là đáp án đúng.. 45: C Giải thích: Từ instituted co nhiều nghĩanhưng trong ngữ cảnh của bài đọc này nó mang nghĩa là thành lập/mở. Vậy cho nên nó gần nghĩa nhất với từ introduced.. 46: B Giải thích: Trong câu “Most of the programs started during the Depression era were temporary relief measures, but one of the programs Social Security - has become an American institution.” từ “Depression era” tương đương với cụm từ “severe economic crisis” đều mang nghĩa là cuộc khủng hoảng kinh tế. Theo câu trên thì phần lớn các chương trình hỗ trợ ở thời kỳ khủng hoảng kinh tế ấy chỉ là giải pháp tạm thời sau đó các tổ chức ấy có thể lạitự giải tán và trong số đó chỉ có Social Security được thành lập.Vậy đáp án B là đúng.. 47: C Giải thích: “Recently, there has been concern that the Social Security fund may not have enough money to fulfill its obligations in the 21st century (=Social Security payments will be a burden) , when the population of elderly Americans is expected to increase dramatically (= the number of elderly people is growing).. 48: D Giải thích: Ngoài chính nguồn trợ cấp từ chính phủ thì những người nghèo còn có thể tìm kiếm sự giúp đỡ từ các tổ chức từ thiện hay tình nguyện nữa. (Needy Americans can also turn to sources other than the government for help. A broad spectrum of private charities and voluntary organizations is available.). Vậy đáp án D là đúng.. 49: C Giải thích: Đáp án C là đúng vì càng ngày càng có thêm nhiều người tham gia vào các chương trình tình nguyện kể cả người trẻ và người già như trong bài đọc đã viết “Volunteerism is on the rise, It is estimated that almost 50 percent of Americans over age 18 do volunteer work, and nearly 75 percent of U.S. households contribute money to charity.”. 50: A Giải thích: Toàn bộ bài đọc cho thấy nội dung chính của bài đọc là nói về các tổ chức công cộng hỗ trợ người nghèo (nên C sai), ở Mỹ nói chung chứ không chỉ là người nhập cư (nên B sai). Bài đọc đề cập đến việc các tổ chức này lấy tiền từ đâu chứ không phải là cách gây quỹ nói chung ở Mỹ nên D sai..

<span class='text_page_counter'>(36)</span> IS WINNING EVERYTHING? Ask kids and the answer is probably "No". Ask the adults and the answer is probably "Yes". And it is adults who control sports for young people - with terrible results for many kids. Twenty millions of children between the ages of eight and sixteen play organized sports outside of school. Their experiences are sometimes very bad. Why? Because of the adults, often their parents, who watch the games. Children's sports are organized like professional sports Children play baseball and football. They wear all the equipment that professional athletes wear. They have uniforms and umpires and referees and leagues. They have games. And many people come to watch their games, especially the families of the players. Because the children's games are like adults, professional games, their parents want adult professional competition. When a child drops a ball, his father becomes angry. When a child doesn't run fast, his mother might shout, "Run faster! Run faster!" And the child? With an angry father and a shouting mother, this is not a happy time. Unhappy and nervous, the child wants to stop playing. The game is not fun now. But he or she can't stop, because the competition is not finished. Question 26. How are the children's sports organized? A. They are easier. B. They are for children only. C. They are the same as adults'. D. They are not competitive. Question 27. Why do some children become unhappy playing sports? A. Because they often lose. B. Because they play worse than adults. C. Not all of them can play. D. The adults watch them play. Question 28. What do parents want from children players? A. Win the game B. Not to drop the ball. C. Run faster. D. Play a lot more. Question 29. The children will play better if__________ A. the sport is easy. B. their parents encourage them. C. they have uniforms to wear. D. they can play for fun. Question 30. What is the most important idea in the text? A. Winning is everything. B. Winning is more important to parents than to children. C. Winning is important to parents. D. Winning is important to both children and parents. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct word for each of the blanks. Dear Sir/Madam,.

It takes a ship approximately eight hours to complete the trip through the canal and costs an average of fifteen thousand dollars, one-tenth of what it would cost an average ship to go around Cape Horn.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions. At the beginning of the nineteenth century, the American educational system was desperately in need of reform. Private schools existed, but only for the very rich. There were very few public schools because of the strong sentiment that children who would grow up to be laborers should not “waste” their time on education but should instead prepare themselves for their life’s work. It was in the face of this public sentiment that educational reformers set about their task. Horace Mann, probably the most famous of the reformers, felt that there was no excuse in a republic for any citizen to be uneducated. As Superintendent of Education in the state of Massachusetts from 1837 to 1848, he initiated various changes, which were soon matched in other school districts around the country. He extended the school year from five to six months and improved the quality of teachers by instituting teacher education and raising teacher salaries. Although these changes did not bring about a sudden improvement in the educational system, they at least increased public awareness as to the need for a further strengthening of the system.

Interpreting the feelings of other people is not always easy, as we all know, and we (21)_________ as much on what they seem to be telling us, as on the actual words they say. Facial (22)_________ and tone of voice are obvious ways of showing our (23)_________ to something, and it may well be that we unconsciously express views that we are trying to hide. The art of being (24)_________ lies in picking up these signals, realizing what the other person is trying to say, and acting so that they are not embarrassed in any way. For example, we may understand that they are in fact (25)_________ to answer our question, and so we stop pressing them. Body movements in general may also indicate feelings, and interviewers often pay particular attention to the way a candidate for a job walks into the room and sits down. However it is not difficult to present the right kind of appearance while what many employers want to know relates to the candidate’s character traits, and (26)_________ stability. This raises the awkward question of whether job candidates should be asked to complete psychological tests, and the further problem of whether such tests actually produce (27)_________ results.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A., B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions. Experiments have shown that in selecting personnel for a job, interviewing is at best a hindrance, and may even cause harm. These studies have disclosed that the judgments of interviewers differ markedly and bear little or no relationship to the adequacy of the job applicants. Of the many reasons why this should be the case, three in particular stand out. The first reason is related to an error of judgment known as the halo effect. If a person has one noticeable good trait, then other characteristics will be judged as better than they really are. Thus, an individual who dresses smartly and shows self-confidence is likely to be judged capable of doing a job well regardless of his or her real ability. Interviewers are also prejudiced by an effect called the primacy effect. This error occurs when interpretation of later information is distorted by earlier connected information. Hence, in an interview situation, the interviewer spends most of the interview trying to confirm the impression given by the candidate in the first few moments. Studies have repeatedly demonstrated that such an impression is unrelated to the aptitude of the applicant. The phenomenon known as the contrast effect also skews the judgment of interviewers. A suitable candidate may be underestimated because he or she contrasts with a previous one who appears exceptionally intelligent. Likewise, an average candidate who is preceded by one who gives a weak showing may be judged as more suitable than he or she really is. Since interviews as a form of personnel selection have been shown to be inadequate, other selection procedures have been devised which more accurately predict candidate suitability. Of the various tests devised, the predictor which appears to do this most successfully is cognitive ability as measured by a variety of verbal and spatial tests.
