【正确答案】正确答案: My View on an Admission Interview for Ph. D Candidates As far as I am concerned, it is necessary for Ph. D candidates to take an admission interview. My argument can be proved by the following points. In the first place, it is beneficial for Ph. D candidates to take an admission interview because they will have a chance to make professors understand them better. Candidates' real talents sometimes cannot be revealed only by the written form of examination. Professors do not know how well candidates could express themselves verbally and how deeply they could think about certain research problems. However, it is easy for professors to discover the answers with which they concern through interviews. In the second place, when university professors meet their candidates in person, they will have the time and chance to listen to the candidates talking about their research achievements and academic interests directly and discuss questions more deeply. In this way, professors know what research work the candidates are doing or have finished. In order to pass the interview, it is essential for candidates to be well prepared academically. During the interview, they should pay enough attention to their behavior and attitudes, and being too arrogant or too humble will leave the professors a bad impression. As for me, first I will make thorough preparations for the interview. When answering all the questions, I will be relaxed and confident. Appearance is important as well, so I will dress up and behave properly. I do believe that good preparations and excellent capability will make me perform well in the interview.
