[单项选择]Passage Two
You don’t have to tackle your job search alone. The ability to let others help is the single most overlooked skill set needed when searching for a new job. Here are four ways I suggest job hunters ask their friends to help get a new job.
1. Ask friends for candor: Have friends examine every aspect of the "package" you present to potential employers-from your cover letter and resume to the outfits (套装) you wear to interviews. Even the most self-aware among us need the enhanced perspective that comes with frank feedback. Their responses may be the single most important factor in improving your application.
2. Build your work plan together: Keeping initiative in your job search isn’t easy, particularly if you’re someone who has relied on bosses and colleagues to provide structure to your work in the past.

"Women tend to be more detailed," said Edward Cornell, who led the study, "while men tend to be a little bit faster and... a little bit more intuitive (直觉感知的). "
In fact, said Cornell, "sense of direction" isn’t one skill but two.
The first is the "survey method". This is when you see an area from above, such as a printed map. You can see, for
A. his intuitive knowledge.
B. his book knowledge.
