Questions like this happen to be popular at job interviews. More often people are embarrassed to talk about their favoritehobbies and interests and seem to be surprised.

Though, the most important task for the interviewer is to evaluate the candidate's specific competencies for the job, whenasking about your hobbies and interest he keens to dig deep into your personal life.

Why do they ask "What are your favorite interests and hobbies"?

The employer has a simple yet vital reason for putting forward this question. They want to get a broader perspective aboutyou. Your life outside work may tell a lot about you.

while describing your hobbies and interests.

Ideally, you should describe a hobby or interests that add value to the job in consideration.

* Select those activities that can give you an edge over others as a candidate. One good example:

If you have applied for a managerial position but do not have prior managerial experience, you may talk about you wereskilled to manage and initiate community service or any such social involvement.

* Don't use a general statement to describe your hobbies, such as, "My hobbies are listening to music, watching television,etc". Such an answer distracts the attention of the employer and will not make the impression you want. Further, you maylose the chance for keeping the interest in you.

* Try to balance in listing individual hobbies as well as being part of group activities.

Most importantly, be honest and back up whatever you say about your hobbies. You may even tell an interesting story—being straightforward is always better.

1、 Getting less sleep has become a bad habit for most American kids. According to a new

survey(调查)by the National Sleep Foundation, 51% of kids aged 10 to 18 go to bed at 10 pm or

later on school nights, even though they have to get up early. Last year the Foundation reported

that nearly 60% of 7- to 12-year-olds said they felt tired during the day, and 15% said they had

fallen asleep at school.

How much sleep you need depends a lot on your age. Babies need a lot of rest; most of them

sleep about 18 hours a day! Adults need about eight hours. For most school-age children, ten hours

is ideal(理想的). But the new National Sleep Foundation survey found that 35% of 10- to

12-year-olds get only seven or eight hours. And guess what almost half of the surveyed kids said

they do before bedtime? Watch TV.

It’s hard to avoid looking like a fool on April Fool’s Day. On April 1 each year, people play tricks on

each other. These tricks are usually silly rather than mean. Classmates sometimes tie each other’s

shoelaces to their chairs. Teachers might hand out an impossibly difficult surprise test that scares

students before they realise it’s only a joke. Newspapers announce fake contests (such as “Win an

elephant!”) and report on fake stories (like “UFO” lands in New York City).

Forget gifts, songs and special foods-those are for the other holidays of the year. On April Fool’s

Day, the only tradition is to laugh (and maybe to cause a little bit of trouble).

One April Fool’s Day, when I was in high school, a group of students in my class played a very

clever and funny trick on the teachers. They bought some chickens and set them free in our

This year my husband and I decided to have a quiet, low-key New Year's Eve. We wanted to spend

it with our kids and other immediate family and make it a special 1 for them, instead of 2 a

babysitter and going out on our own. The logical way to do this was through 3 . As we all know,

food had a magical way of making; a night 4 , and our New Year's Eve certainly 5 that way,

thanks to doughnuts(甜甜圈).

I decided to make doughnuts because my cousins had 6 a batch(一批) on Halloween and I
