COME AND EAT HERE
Wang Peng sat in his empty restaurant feeling very frustrated. It had been a very strange morning. Usually he got up early and prepared his menu of barbecued mutton kebabs, roast pork, stir-flied vegetables and fried rice. Then by lunchtime they would all be sold. By now his restaurant ought to be full of people. But not today! Why was that? What could have happened? He thought of his mutton, beef and bacon cooked in the hottest, finest oil. His cola was sugary and cold, and his ice cream was made of milk, cream and delicious fruit. "Nothing could be better," he thought. Suddenly he saw his friend Li Chang hurrying by. "Hello, Lao Li," he called. "Your usual?" But Li Chang seemed not to hear. What was the matter? Something terrible must have happened if Li Chang was not coming to eat in his restaurant as he always did.
Wang Peng followed Li Chang into a new small restaurant. He saw a sign in the window.
Tired of all that fat? Want to lose weight?
Come inside Yong Hui’s slimming restaurant.
Only slimming foods served here.
Make yourself thin again!
Curiosity drove Wang Peng inside. It was full of people. The hostess, a very thin lady, came forward. "Welcome," she said. "My name is Yong Hui. I'll help you lose weight and be fit in two weeks if you eat here every day." Then she gave a menu to Wang Peng. There were few choices of food and drink on it: just rice, raw vegetables served in vinegar, fruit and water. Wang Peng was amazed at this and especially at the prices. It cost more than a good meal in his restaurant! He could not believe his eyes. He threw down the menu and 
hurried outside. On his way home he thought about his own menu. Did it make people fat? Perhaps he should go to the library and find out. He could not have Yong Hui getting away with telling people lies! He had better do some research!
At the library Wang Peng was surprised to find that his restaurant served far too much fat and Yong Hui’s far too little. Even though her customers might get thin after eating Yong Hui’s food, they were not eating enough energy-giving food to keep them fit. They would become tired very quickly. Wang Peng felt more hopeful as he drove back home. Perhaps with a discount and a new sign he could win his customers back. So he wrote:
Want to feel fit and energetic?
Come and eat here! Discounts today!
Our food gives you energy all day!
The competition between the two restaurants was on!

How to Have a Successful Remote Interview?
If interviews make you nervous, the thought of doing one remotely might be a relief. 1. Even if your interviewer may have a hard time seeing you sweat, they will still ask questions. Think of a phone or video interview as an extra opportunity to impress. If you create a genuine connection with someone without being in the same place as them, chances are they’ll trust your ability. 2.
● Test your equipment.
3. For a video interview, it’s important to do a trial run in advance, since they can be especially troublesome. “These are live, so it’s very important to test your connection ahead of time,” says Scott Dobroski, the director of Corporate Communication at Glassdoor.
● 4.
You don’t want your interviewer to think you’re in an underground place. So skip the dark, dull mood lighting. Pick a spot where the light is facing you and try to set yourself up in a relaxing atmosphere and at a comfortable distance. Ideally, have slightly an inch of space above your head.
● Take your time.
A common mistake people make is cutting someone else off in conversation. This is even easier to do when you can’t see the person you’re talking to. So even if it feels slightly unnatural, wait for a while after your interviewer finishes a sentence. 5. He may understand why. But you don’t want to come across as rushing the conversation or being more interested in hearing yourself talk than establishing a connection.
A.Get the atmosphere right.
B.But you should still take them seriously.
C.Here are three tips to make the whole process go smoothly.
D.Buy a phone or video before you have the interview.
E.Gutting him off a time or two might not be a big problem.
F.Make sure that your phone is charged and your Wi-Fi works.
G.Your interviewer will be happy to see you cut him off.
