Job interviews in a foreign language are tough.  I know it - I've interviewed for jobs in my second language, Spanish.  Today, we're going to talk about something I've seen over and over in my coaching work, helping candidates prepare for job interviews - the strategy of saying more by saying less.  

It might seem counterintuitive, but avoid having an answer that sounds desperate by limiting your details!

16.结婚系列：Your English Teacher and Your Gym Teacher Are Getting Married🧨

LECTURA COMPRENSIVA.


ESTE CUENTO NOS HABLA DE DOS AMIGOS QUE PASEABAN POR EL BOSQUE.


Antes de comenzar la lectura.


1. ¿Prefieres tener muchos amigos o pocos amigos?

2. ¿Que valoras en una amistad?


Presta atención a la lectura de tu profesor.


Érase una vez dos amigos que paseaban por el bosque. De
pronto, apareció un oso que quería atacarlos. Uno de ellos se
encaramó a un árbol y se escondió, mientras que el otro se quedó
en el camino, se dejó caer al suelo y simuló que estaba muerto.

El oso se acercó y lo olfateó, pero él aguantó la respiración,
así que el animal pensó que estaba muerto y se fue.

Cuando el oso se alejó, bajó del árbol y preguntó riendo a su
compañero:

- ¿Qué te decía el oso al oído?

- Me decía que quien abandona a un amigo cuando hay peligro es un cobarde.
