A Visa Interview
Kelly didn’t do as well as she should have at her visa interview today. She didn’t get the visa, and she realizes now that she should have done a few things differently. She should have spoken English, she should have told more about her previous education and work experience, and she probably should have worn more conservative clothes.
In addition, she shouldn’t have arrived late for such an important interview. She shouldn’t have smoked in the interviewer’s office. And she definitely shouldn’t have asked the interviewer to repeat himself so many times. Kelly will certainly do things differently the next time she has a visa interview!

在今天的签证面试中,Kelly本可以表现的很好,但她没有,所以她没有获得签证。现在她意识到,她本应做些事情来完善她自己。她本应该讲英语;她本应该向面试考官陈述更多有关她受教育的情况和工作经历;或许,她还应该穿得更保守些。
另外,在如此重要的一次面试中,她本不应该迟到的;她不应该在考官的办公室里抽烟;她更万万不该要求面试官多次重复他所说的内容。在下次的签证面试中,Kelly一定会有不同的表现。
