问题    Attention to detail is something everyone can and should do, especially in a tight job market. Bob Crossley, a human resources expert notices this in the job applications that come cross his desk every day. "It’s amazing how. many candidates eliminate themselves, "he says.
   "Resumes arrive with stains. Some candidates don’t bother to spell the company’s name correctly. Once I see a mistake, I eliminate the candidate," Crossley concludes. "If they cannot take care of these details, why should we trust them with a job?"
   Can we pay too much attention to details? Absolutely. Perfectionists struggle over little things at the cost of something larger they work toward. "To keep from losing the forest for the trees, "says Charles Garfield, associate professor at the University of California, San Francisco," we must constantly ask ourselves how the details we’re working on fit into the larger picture. If they don’t, we should drop them and move to something else."
   Garfield compares this process to his work as a computer scientist at NASA. "The Apollo II moon launch was slightly off-course 90 percent of the time," says Garfield, "but a successful landing was still likely because we knew the exact coordinates of our goal. This allowed us to make adjustments as necessary. "Knowing where we want to go helps us judge the importance of every task we undertake.
   Too often we believe what accounts for others’ success is some special secret or a lucky break. But rarely is success so mysterious. Again and again, we see that by doing little things within our grasp well, large rewards follow.
According to the passage ,some job applicants were rejected ______.
选项 A、because of their inadequate attention paid to details, such as the stains and misspelt company name
B、because of their inadequate education as shown in their poor spelling in writing a resume
C、because they failed to give a detailed description of their background in their applications
D、because they eliminated their names from the applicants list themselves
答案A
解析 文章前两段对于细节的重要性已有明确表述。比如求职信上的污迹和拼错的公司名称都会使求职者在激烈的竞争中被淘汰。
