III. ReadingSuzanne was very nervous about her interview. She had prepared for it for at least

three weeks before. She really wanted a job but she knew that a lot of other people wanted to get it, too. She had been told when she phoned the number in the advert that there were so many applicants for it, so she prepared herself. She made notes of what might be asked and of what she wanted to ask.

When the day of interview came, she arrived half an hour early. There were six other people waiting to be interviewed. They all looked much more confident than she did.
