(全中文) 《记忆碎片》影评：真相的幻象 

En un pequeño pueblo llamado Villa Verde vivía una niña llamada Ana. Ana tenía ocho años y le encantaban los animales. Su mascota favorita era un gato negro llamado Noche. Noche era un gato muy curioso y siempre estaba explorando el jardín de Ana. Un día, Ana se despertó y no encontró a Noche en su cama. Se preocupó mucho porque Noche nunca se iba muy lejos. Ana buscó por toda la casa, pero Noche no estaba en ninguna parte. Entonces decidió salir a buscarlo por el pueblo. Primero, Ana fue a la panadería de don Pedro. Don Pedro era un señor amable que siempre le daba a Ana un panecillo cuando lo visitaba.
Ana: Buenos días, don Pedro. ¿Ha visto a mi gato Noche?
Don Pedro: Hola, Ana. No lo he visto hoy. Pero puedes preguntar en la tienda de la señora Rosa. Tal vez ella lo haya visto.
Ana agradeció a don Pedro y corrió hacia la tienda de la señora Rosa. La tienda estaba llena de cosas interesantes, desde dulces hasta juguetes.
Ana: Buenos días, señora Rosa. ¿Ha visto a mi gato Noche?
Señora Rosa: Hola, Ana. No, no lo he visto, pero puedes preguntar en la plaza. A veces los gatos van allí a jugar.
Ana salió de la tienda y se dirigió a la plaza del pueblo. Allí vio a muchos niños jugando y también a su amigo Luis.
Ana: Hola, Luis. ¿Has visto a mi gato Noche?
Luis: ¡Hola, Ana! No, no lo he visto. Pero podemos buscarlo juntos. ¡Vamos!
Ana y Luis buscaron por toda la plaza, pero no encontraron a Noche. De repente, escucharon un maullido suave que venía de un arbusto grande.
Ana: ¡Escucha, Luis! ¡Creo que es Noche!
Los dos amigos se acercaron al arbusto y, efectivamente, allí estaba Noche. El gato estaba atrapado entre unas ramas. Luis y Ana lo ayudaron a salir y Noche se veía muy contento de ver a su dueña.
Ana: ¡Gracias, Luis! Estoy muy feliz de haber encontrado a Noche. Vamos a casa.
Ana y Luis caminaron de regreso a casa de Ana con Noche en los brazos. Ana estaba muy agradecida por la ayuda de su amigo y prometió ser más cuidadosa para que Noche no volviera a perderse.

El Misterio del Gato Perdido

Recruiter: Why do you want to do this job?

Candidate: I would be very happy to work here because I really respect the work that this company does and I have always had a positive opinion of it. I believe that with the skills that I have learned over the past six years in this industry, I would be an excellent person to have on the team.

Recruiter: What experience do you have?



Candidate: When I started, I worked as a sales rep for two years and learned a lot during that time and went to a lot of training courses. After two years, I was promoted and became an area manager with a small team of two other people. I did that for three years, before moving to the job I do now. I currently manage a different area with a larger team of five people and since I have been there, our sales have increased by 25%.

Recruiter: Why are you looking for work?

Candidate: Ihave been with this company for six years now and I would like to have experience with a new company and I’m looking for a new challenge. Also, I have a new manager who started a couple of months ago and I don’t really get along with him. He’s pretty stupid.

Recruiter: How would you describe yourself?

Candidate: I’m a hard worker and enjoy learning new skills. I really love working in sales and don’t have a problem with working as long as I need to reach my goals. I’m good at working as part of a team, but I’m happy to work by myself too.

Recruiter: What is your dream job?

Candidate: Selling ice cream on a beach! Sun, ice cream, and sales: my three favorite things.

Recruiter: What are you good at?

Candidate: One of my biggest strengths is listening to customers to find out what they need and building relationships with them.

Recruiter: How do you deal with a large amount of work?

Candidate: First, I decide what are the most important tasks to deal with and I do those first. If I’ve got a lot to do, I will get up extra early and get a head start.

Recruiter: What are your hobbies?
