A. How to Write a Resume?

Liz is going to graduate from her university. She goes to talk to Professor Kunts, a foreign teacher in her university, about how to write a resume in English to apply for a job in a foreign company in China.
Kunts: Hi, Liz, take a seat. What can I do for you?
Liz: Thank you. I'm graduating, and I need a resume to apply for a job in a foreign company. Could you tell me how to write a resume?
Kunts: Sure. Your resume should start with your name, sex, age, address and telephone number. Secondly 3, you should also include the education you have received, experience you have had, and foreign languages you have studied.
Liz: Is that all?
Kunts: No, you may also put in your hobbies and any other personal factors. They might be useful, too. Besides, you should also include the major job objective 4 you have in mind.
Liz: Thank you very much, Professor Kunts. See you tomorrow.
Kunts: See you.

B. Is My resume All Right?

Liz has prepared her resume, and now she is talking to Professor Kunts about it.
Liz: Good morning, Professor Kunts. I have written my resume. Could you go over it and see if I need to make any changes?
Kunts: Certainly. You have studied for two years in this university, attended No. 8 Middle School in Binhai, and had some work experience as well.
Liz: Yes. I have worked as Chairman of the Student Union since I came to the university, and I did a part-time job as a managing assistant in my vacation.
Kunts: From your resume, I can see you are good at both English and German. I believe you're likely to get what you want, an assistant manager's position.
Liz: Thanks for your encouragement. So my resume is all right?
Kunts: Sure. Good luck, Liz!
Liz: Thank you, bye!
