问答题 上星期,我在市中心偶然碰到我的中学同学亨利,那个英俊潇洒、很有感召力的男孩,他曾梦想做一家公司销售部的经理。 我们来到一家小酒馆,坐在靠窗的桌边,边喝边聊。 那天他看上去很苦恼,告诉我说他向一家进出口公司申请了一份推销员的工作,并参加了语言能力测试,但他认为这次考试没有自己所预料的那样好。 当问他是否上过大学,他清了清嗓子,但什么也没说。我正要为我的问话表示歉意,亨利却耸耸肩说他试了两次应聘考试,但都失败了。三周前他又第三次参加了考试。他一直在忧虑中等待结果,且因此晚上几乎睡不着觉。我们聊了很多以前的事情,那时的毕业典礼,后来的同学会等等。晚上很晚我们才分手,相互留给对方联系电话,约好以后多联系。 说实话,遇到他后我的心情也沉重起来,一个人的生活中没有什么比一份稳定的工作更加重要。我为他感到难过,真诚地希望这次他能够被这家公司聘用。
