James sat outside the office waiting for the interview. He felt so
36 that he didn’t know what to do with himself. The person who had gone in
37 him had been in there for nearly an hour. And she looked so confident when she went in, not like James. He felt
38 that she had already got the job. The problem was that he wanted his job so much. It meant everything to him. He had
39 it such a lot before the day of the interview. He had imagined himself
40 brilliantly（出色地）at the interview and being offered the job immediately. But now here he was feeling
41 . He couldn’t remember all those things he
42 to say. At that moment, he almost decided to get up and leave. But no – he had to do this. He had spent so much time considering it that he couldn’t
43 like that. His hands were hot and sticky and his mouth felt dry. At last the door of the office opened. The woman who had gone in an hour earlier came out looking very
44 with herself. She smiled sympathetically （同情地）at James. At the moment, James
45 her. The managing director then appeared at the office door. “would you like to come in now, Mr. Davis? I’m sorry to have kept you
46 .” James suddenly wished that he had gone home after all. He got up, legs
47 and forehead sweating and wondered he looked as terrified as he felt.
