I. Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions bellow

How I got that Job ?

At the time I was living in a small village about 25 miles from London. I could reach to
London in half an hour by train there. If you went by car it would take about three tmes as
long and you would sit in your statonary car for ages before you go anywhere especially
if you travelled in the morning rush hour. I had to make a choice between the car and the
train. I had seen an advertsement in a natonal newspaper, which had asked for someone
who had some knowledge of computng, had worked at least for two years in car sales and
fnally was not afraid of travelling up and down the motorway to London every day from
a place not far from where I lived. It was quite different from the job I had at the tme.
The interview was to take place at 10 am on a Monday morning in January. Throughout
the weekend I could not make up my mind whether to travel by car or by train
. In my mind I started to go through the qualites that were needed
for the job. Among the requirements were: ability to work under pressure, calmness in
the face of difcult circumstances and a determinaton to see a job through to the end.
I reviewed the situaton. It was 9 a.m. by now and on a normal day the drive would take
about forty-fve minutes. On a day like this it would be impossible to estmate. I decided
to relax. Afer all nobody else could travel so why should I worry about it? Within fve
minutes the trafc was moving again and for the next two miles I was driving along the
motorway at quite a good speed. I reached my destnaton at 11.30 a.m. just
one and a half hours late. Despite some unanswered tough questons, they offered me the
job because I had shown presence of mind and determinaton. I was feeling very pleased
with myself
