Key:

1. A。文章最开始讲到在申请大学过程中很重要的环节是面试。而这个环节最重要的是明白面试者所看重的。之后讲了如何能够符合面试者的要求。所以A正确。

2. B。从第7段第一句Remember that most interviews (like battles) are won or lost before you ever go into them.可判断B正确。A断章取义。CD与原文相反。

3. A。从第6段One of the interviewer's jobs is to decide whether or not you are a good emotional and psychological fit for their university. That means it is vital to come off as socially well-adjusted. 可知你各方面是否适合这个学校，是你能否通过面试的关键。而最后Find ways to tie your interests and goals to what that school has to offer in particular.还是说明你和学校非常契合很重要。所以A正确。B是对原文give them that picture.的曲解，因为原文是说你要让自己符合面试者的想象、要求。C错在personal interests。D只是作者举的某种情况的例子，并不适用每个人。

Key:

1. B。由第一段第一、二句以及第二段可知，Samuel Eto’o度过了一个不愉快的夏天，主要是在输掉了这场对他意义非凡的世界杯。

2. D。由第一段引号里“divisive (不和的) locker room cliques (小圈子) with Eto’o … the head of one faction (派系), and weak managerial leadership [from the coach].”的话可知，David Hytnerr认为该球队比赛失利的原因主要是由于教练的领导不得力以及整个团队的派系之争所导致。

3. C。由第三段与第四段“Eto’o’s focus has been different. He has scored 15 goals in all competitions for Inter Milan and is now the top scorer in the Serie A in Italy. The burning desire to prove himself has always been the story behind the player.”可知C正确。

4. A。由第五段描述的Samuel Eto’o刚去Real Madrid时，遭受到与白人队友不一样的待遇可知，Real Madrid里有种族歧视，所以A项正确。B项没有提及；C项doubted his football skills与文章中的“They saw his talent”矛盾；D项貌似正确，Eto’o反感没有人前往机场接待自己的原因主要是与白人队友的待遇上强烈的反差。

5. D。由最后一段“I’m proud to be black. ”可知D项正确。由倒数第二段最后一句话“He scored the only goal as Inter beat Cagliari 1-0.”可知A项错误；由倒数第二段“some fans insulted Eto’o every time he kicked the ball”可知B项不对。
