How to Interview People
Interviewing （采访） is one of those skills that you can only get better at. You will never again feel so ill at ease as when you try it for the first time, and probably you'll never feel entirely comfortable trying to get from another person answers that he or she may be too shy to reveal.（46） The rest is instinct, which can all be learned with experience.
The basic tools for an interview are paper and two or three well-sharpened pencils. But keep your notebook or paper out of sight until you need it. There's nothing less likely to relax a person than the arrival of someone with a note-taking pad.（47） Take a while just to chat, judging what sort of person you're dealing with, getting him or her to trust you.
Never go into an interview without doing whatever homework you can. If you are interviewing a town official, know his voting record. If it's an actor, know what plays he has been in. （48）
Many beginning interviewers are afraid that they are forcing the other person to answer questions and have no right to inquire about his personal secrets. （49） Unless the person really hates being interviewed, he is delighted that somebody wants to interview him. Most men and women lead lives that are uninteresting, and they grasp any chance to talk to an outsider who seems eager to listen.
This doesn't necessarily mean that it will go well. In general you will be talking to people who have never been interviewed before, and they will get used to the process awkwardly, perhaps not giving you anything that you can use. （50） You will both even begin to enjoy it - proof that you aren't forcing your victim to do something he doesn't really want to.
A Come back another day; it will go better
B But at least half of the skill is mechanical
C As one philosopher interviewed in the film notes, they lack irony
D You will not be liked if you inquire about facts that you could have learned in advance.
E This fear is almost 100 percent unnecessary
F Both of you need time to get to know each other
答案：46. B 47. F 48. D 49. E 50. A
解析：
这篇文章不是很难，因为内容接近生活，How to Interview People 怎样采访别人。所以应该通读一下文章明确每段的大概内容，填句子主要是考段落内部的关系和段落之间的关系，后者相对来说比较少。
看第一题，空句后面有rest 其余的就是直觉instinct ,需要后天从经历中总结出来，所以空句毫无疑问讲的是另外一种情况，所以B 就显而易见为正确答案了。
第二题，前面提到不要使用a note-taking pad，后面Take a while just to chat，很显然作者强调的是不要开门见山地拿出小本开始记录，要花时间chat以增进相互之间的了解。所以选F，这样就很符合逻辑顺序，48题空句前一直在说要提前进行准备，If it's an actor, know what plays he has been in，当然如果在采访一个人之前对被采访者没有任何了解肯定不会受欢迎。
49题容易抓住关键词进行同义替换，也就是afraid，选项中this fear就是对这种担心的补充，这种担心是完全没有必要的，除非被采访者确实是讨厌别人问自己的隐私。
最后一题前面not giving you anything，后句You will both even begin to enjoy it，所以可以判断出在被采访者由于以前不适应这种场合没能给你任何你想得到的信息时，不妨改天重新开始。所以选A.
