There were no survivors. The death toll was set by American Airlines at 272-279 passengers, three crew members and 10 flight attendants. Two of the passengers were not originally reported because they were airline employees granted free passage. The jetliner bound for Los Angeles lost one of its three engines as it rose from the runway at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport.

When applying for a job, it may be of some obscure interest to a【C4】______ employer to learn that I collect stamps or had measles【C5】______ a child, but why should he conceivably want to know that my father was a tobacconist who died in 19887

Of all, I think job applications are the【C16】______ Education -- previous experience -- post held -- give dates...

听力原文： Who gets to be a millionaire？ People say that it is the students who get straight A's and go to Ivy League colleges. Or maybe it is the children born into wealthy families with brilliant connections. But the fact is, neither mentioned above is typical. According to a survey of 1,300 millionaires made by Thomas Stanley for his new book, The Millionaire Mind, the average millionaire got B's and C's in college. In fact, most millionaires were told they were not intellectually gifted, not smart enough to succeed. Then, how did they later become millionaires？ Instead of relying on natural genius, they choose careers that match their abilities. They may not have great analytic intelligence, but they are creative and practical. They focus on a goal, take calculated risks and then work harder than most people. None of them credit their success to being smart. They say the keys to success are being honest and disciplined, getting along with other people, having a supportive spouse and working hard. Somehow they figured out what they were good at
They all said, "I will be the best at this. This is what I really, really love to do."
According to a survey, who may have a better chance to be millionaires？
