我的第一号、第二号作品的不成功，使我泄了气。
I had been disheartened by the failure of my Drawing Number One and my Drawing Number Two.
这些大人们，靠他们自己什么也弄不懂，还得老是不断地给他们作解释。这真叫孩子们腻味。
Grown-ups never understand anything by themselves, and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them.

后来，我只好选择了另外一个职业，我学会了开飞机，
So then I chose another profession, and learned to pilot airplanes.


世界各地差不多都飞到过。的确，地理学帮了我很大的忙。
I have flown a little over all parts of the world; and it is true that geography has been very useful to me.
我一眼就能分辨出中国和亚里桑那。
At a glance I can distinguish China from Arizona.
要是夜里迷失了航向，这是很有用的。
If one gets lost in the night, such knowledge is valuable.


这样，在我的生活中，我跟许多严肃的人有过很多的接触。
In the course of this life I have had a great many encounters with a great many people who have been concerned with matters of consequence.

我在大人们中间生活过很长时间。
I have lived a great deal among grown-ups.
我仔细地观察过他们，但这并没有使我对他们的看法有多大的改变。
I have seen them intimately, close at hand.And that hasn’t much improved my opinion of them.
当我遇到一个头脑看来稍微清楚的大人时，
Whenever I met one of them who seemed to me at all clear-sighted,


我就拿出一直保存着的我那第一号作品来测试测试他。
I tried the experiment of showing him my Drawing Number One, which I have always kept.


我想知道他是否真的有理解能力。
I would try to find out, so, if this was a person of true understanding.
可是，得到的回答总是：“这是顶帽子。”
But, whoever it was, he, or she, would always say: “That is a hat.”
我就不和他谈巨蟒呀，原始森林呀，或者星星之类的事。
Then I would never talk to that person about boa constrictors, or primeval forests, or stars.

我只得迁就他们的水平，和他们谈些桥牌呀，高尔夫球呀，政治呀，领带呀这些。
I would bring myself down to his level. I would talk to him about bridge,and golf, and politics, and neckties.
于是大人们就十分高兴能认识我这样一个通情达理的人。
And the grown-up would be greatly pleased to have met such a sensible man.

Why people are afraid of taking interviews?

Here is a quote I found from a person - sharing their feelings about taking an interview...

I'm afraid of interviews and getting a job and having to interact with coworkers
I'm an adult but I feel like a baby. I don't have any social skills or any skills. Having to go to interviews and interact with coworkers sounds like a nightmare. I can't do this adult thing. I can't function in this --- world. I don't know what to do. I can't get help because it's too scary to speak about my problems with a stranger. I feel like I wasn't meant to be in this world. 

and this is a native speaker... certainly, the person might be starting out but my point was to illustrate to you that you are not alone...

In this podcast I share ways how you can overcome it - strategical approach you can follow to help you ace your interview.

And I offer 1-1 private coachinng/consulting classes, come and see me.

To Your Success,
Anatoly
