"Resume(简历)arrive with stains. Some candidates don't bother to spell the company's name correctly. Once I see a mistake, I eliminate the candidate," Crossley concludes. "If they cannot take of these details, why should we trust them with a job?"
Can we pay too much attention to detail? Absolutely. Perfectionists struggle over little things at the cost of something larger they work toward. "To keep from losing the forest for the trees", says Charles Garfield, associate professor at the University of California, San Francisco , "We must constantly ask ourselves how the details we're working on fit into the larger picture. If they don't, we should drop them and move to something else".
Garfield compares this process to his work as a computer scientist at NAST. "The Apollo Ⅱ moon launch was slightly off-course 90 percent of the time. "Says Garfield," But a successful landing was still likely because we knew the exact coordinates of our goal. This al lowed us to make adjustments as necessary. "Knowing where we want to go helps us judge the importance of every task we undertake.
Too often we believe what accounts for others' success is some special secret or a lucky break(机遇). But rarely is success so mysterious. Again and again, we see that by doing little things within our grasp well, large rewards follow.
According to the passage, some job applicants were rejected ______.
A.because of their carelessness as shown in their failure to present a clean copy of a resume
B.because of their inadequate education as shown in their poor spelling in writing a resume
C.because they failed to give detailed description of their background in their applications
D.because they eliminated their names from the applicants' list themselves

听力原文:M: So, Andrea, you are going home for the holidays?
W: I sure am. I've booked a flight for tomorrow afternoon and I can't wait!
M: That sounds great.
W: What about you? Going home, toe?
M: I haven't decided yet, I'm still debating.
W: Haven't decided? Oh, you're never going to get a flight out of here. I'm sure all the seats have been reserved by now. It's the holiday season, after all!
M: Well, it's not such a big deal for me. My family only lives about a hundred and fifty miles from here. I usually drive or take the train. It's a short trip.
W: You don't sound very excited about it.
M: Well, we're not really a very close-knit family. I have three brothers, and they're spread out all over the place. One lives on the East Coast and the other on the West Coast. I even have a brother in Montreal!
W: Oh, wow! What does he do?
M: Translation work. It's kind of strange, but we rarely get together as a family anymore.
W: Well, I try to get home as much as possible. We're a big family-there are six of us children—so it's always a lot of fun.
M: Six kids?
W: Yep. And we've all really close. You should see it—most of us are married, too, so it makes for a very crowded house over the holidays.
M: I can imagine.
W: Of course, there are too many people to cook dinner for. It's a re al headache for my parents. So we end up going out to dinner a lot. It's pretty crazy.
M: Well, at my house my mother loves to cook. So, when all of us do get home—which isn't that often—she always cooks big, homemade meals. We have leftovers for days!
