They were looking for guards, not drivers. This suited me. I couldnt drive a car but thought that I could probably guard a train, and perhaps continue to write my poems between stations. The writers Keats and Chekhov had been doctors. T.S. Eliot had worked in a bank and Wallace Stevens for an insurance company. Id be a subway guard. I could see myself being cheerful, useful, a good man in a crisis. Obviously Id be overqualified but I was willing to forget about that in return for a steady income and travel privileges those being particularly welcome to someone living a long way from the city centre.The next day I sat down, with almost a hundred other candidates, for the intelligence test. I must have done all right because after about half an hours wait I was sent into another room for a psychological test. This time there were only about fifty candidates. The interviewer sat at a desk. Candidates were signaled forward to occupy the seat opposite him when the previous occupant had been dismissed, after a greater or shorter time. Obviously the long interviews were the more successful ones. Some of the interviews were as short as five minutes. Mine was the only one that lasted a minute and a half.I can remember the questions now: “Why did you leave your last job? “Why did you leave your job before that? “And the one before that? I cant recall my answers, except that they were short at first and grew progressively shorter. His closing statement, I thought, revealed a lack of sensitivity which helped to explain why as a psychologist, he had risen no higher than the underground railway. “Youve failed the psychological test and we are unable to offer you a position.Failing to get that job was my low point. Or so I thought, believing that the work was easy. Actually, such jobs being a postman is another one I still desire demand exactly the sort of elementary yet responsible awareness that the habitual dreamer is least qualified to give. But I was still far short of full self-understanding. I was also short of cash.41The writer applied for the job chiefly because _.Ahe wanted to work in the centre of London Bhe could no longer afford to live without oneChe was not interested in any other available job Dhe had received some suitable training42The writer thought he was overqualified for the job because _.Ahe often traveled undergroundBhe had written many poemsChe could deal with difficult situations Dhe had worked in a company43The length of his interview meant that _.Ahe was not going to be offered the job Bhe had not done well in the intelligence testChe did not like the interviewer at all Dhe had little work experience to talk about44What does the writer realize now that he did not realize then?AHow unpleasant ordinary jobs can be. BHow difficult it is to be a poet.CHow unsuitable he was for the job.DHow badly he did in the interview.45Whats the writers opinion of the psychologist?A. He was very aggressive有进取心的. B. He was unhappy with his job.C. He was quite inefficient. D. He was rather unsympathetic.参考答案41-45 BCACD *结束(十二)(·五月模拟)A mother and daughter living in my community are two of the most unfriendly people I have ever come across in my life.
