问题     If you’re finding it tough to land a job, try expanding your job-hunting plan to include the following strategies:
    Set your target. While you should always keep your options open to compromise, you should also be sure to target exactly what you want in a job. A specific job hunt will be more efficient than a random one.
    Schedule ample interviews. Use every possible method to get interviews—answering ads, using search firms, contacting companies directly, surfing the Web, and networking. Even if a job is not perfect for you, every interview can make you learn from it.
    Follow up. Even if someone does not hire you, write them a thank-you note for the interview. Then, some weeks later, send another brief letter to explain that you still have not found the perfect position and that you will be available to interview again if the original position you applied for—or any other position, for that matter—is open. Do this with every position you interview for, and you may just catch a break.
    Make it your full-time job. You can’t find a job by looking infrequently. You have to make time for it. If you’re unemployed and looking for a job, devote as much time as you would to a full-time job. If you have a job while you’re looking, figure out an organized schedule to maximize your searching time.
    Network vertically. In the research phase of your job-hunt, talk to people who are on a level above you in your desired industry. They’ll have some insights that people at your own level won’t have, and will be in a good position to hire you or recommend you to be hired.
    Keep your spirits up. Looking for a job is one of the toughest things you will ever have to do. Maintain your confidence, stay persistent, and think positively, and eventually you will get a job that suits you. [br] According to the author, your job-hunting plan had better be as______ as possible.
选项 A、random
B、defined
C、fixed
D、complex
答案 B
解析 第2段第3句是一个表示对比的句子，表明了找工作应该specific，而不应该random，由此可确定B是正确选项。本题较具干扰性的是C，但是specific(明确的)并不表示找工作的计划应该fixed(不能改变)，而且fixed与第2句中的compromise(折中)表达的意思矛盾，因此C不正确。
