The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

An EFL lesson about the current events in Palestine. It is intended to be for intermediate students who wish to increase their listening skills through a short lesson in power point.
2. TELL ME A LITTLE ABOUT YOURSELF
• If you're the candidate, talk about why you took certain jobs. Explain why you left. Explain
why you chose a certain school. Share why you decided to go to grad school. Discuss
why you took a year off to backpack through Europe, and what you got out of the
experience.
• When you answer this question, connect the dots on your resume so the interviewer
understands not just what you've done, but also why.
3. WHAT ARE YOUR BIGGEST
WEAKNESSES?
• Just pick a theoretical weakness and magically transform that flaw into a strength in
disguise!
• For example: "My biggest weakness is getting so absorbed in my work that I lose all track
of time. I know I should be more aware of the clock, but when I love what I'm doing I just
can't think of anything else."
• A better approach is to choose an actual weakness, but one you're working to improve.
Share what you're doing to overcome that weakness.
4. WHAT ARE YOUR BIGGEST STRENGTHS?
• provide a sharp, on-point answer. Be clear and precise. If you're a great problem solver,
don't just say that: Provide a few examples, pertinent to the opening, that prove you're a
great problem solver. If you're an emotionally intelligent leader, don't just say that: Provide
a few examples that prove you know how to answer the unasked question.
5. WHERE DO YOU SEE YOURSELF IN FIVE
YEARS?
• This is a way to show how well candidates can sell themselves.
• Describe the different businesses you would love to start, the business a candidate would
love to start tells you about her hopes and dreams, her interests and passions, the work
she likes to do, the people she likes to work with.
6. WHAT DO YOU FEEL WE NEED TO KNOW
THAT WE HAVEN’T DISCUSSED?
• if you're asked this question, use it as a chance to highlight things you haven't been able
to touch on.
• Maybe candidates started the interview nervous and hesitant, and now wish they could go
back and better describe their qualifications and experience. This is the chance.
7. HOW DID YOU LEARN ABOUT THE OPENING?
• Don't just explain how you heard about the opening. Show that you heard about the job
through a colleague, a current employer, by following the company--show that you know
about the job because you want to work there.
• Employers don't want to hire people who just want a job; they want to hire people who
want a job with their company.
8. WHY DO YOU WANT THIS JOB?
• Don't just talk about why the company would be great to work for; talk about how the
position is a perfect fit for what you hope to accomplish, both short-term and long-term.
• And if you don't know why the position is a perfect fit, look somewhere else. Life is too
short.
9. WHAT DO YOU CONSIDER YOUR BIGGEST
PROFESSIONAL ACHIEVEMENT?
• talk about an underperforming employee you "rescued," or how you overcame infighting
between departments, or how so many of your direct reports have been promoted.
• The goal is to share achievements that let the interviewer imagine you in the position --
and see you succeeding.
10. TELL ME ABOUT THE LAST TIME A CO-WORKER OR
A CUSTOMER GOT ANGRY WITH YOU. WHAT
HAPPENED?
• Conflict is inevitable when a company works hard to get things done. Mistakes happen,
and that's OK. No one is perfect.
• Hiring managers would much rather choose candidates who focus not on blame but on
addressing and fixing the problem.
• Every business needs employees who willingly admit when they are wrong, step up to
take ownership for fixing the problem, and, most important, learn from the experience.
11. DESCRIBE YOUR DREAM JOB.
• Three words describe how you should answer this question: relevance, relevance,
relevance.
• Work backward: Identify things about the job you're interviewing for that will help you if
you do land your dream job someday, and then describe how those things apply to what
you hope to someday do.
• don't be afraid to admit that you might someday move on, whether to join another
company or -- better -- to start your own business. Employers no longer expect "forever"
employees.
12. WHY DO YOU WANT TO LEAVE YOUR
CURRENT JOB?
• Don't talk about how your boss is difficult. Don't talk about how you can't get along with
other employees. Don't bad-mouth your company.
• Instead, focus on the positives a move will bring. Talk about what you want to achieve. Talk
about what you want to learn, ways you want to grow, about things you want to
accomplish; explain how a move will be great for you and for your new company.
13. WHAT KIND OF WORK ENVIRONMENT DO
YOU LIKE BEST?
• Think about the job you're applying for and the company's culture (because every
company has one, whether intentional or unintentional). If a flexible schedule is
important to you, but the company doesn't offer one, focus on something else. If you like
constant direction and support and the company expects employees to self-manage, focus
on something else.
• Find ways to highlight how the company's environment will work well for you -- and if you
can't find ways, don't take the job, because you'll be miserable.
14. TELL ME ABOUT THE TOUGHEST DECISION
YOU HAVE EVER MADE IN YOUR
PROFESSIONAL LIFE
• This question evaluates the candidate's reasoning ability, problem-solving skills,
judgment, and possibly even willingness to take intelligent risks.
• A good answer proves you can make a difficult analytical or reasoning-based decision --
for example, wading through reams of data to determine the best solution to a problem.
• A great answer proves you can make a difficult interpersonal decision, or better yet a
difficult data-driven decision that includes interpersonal considerations and ramifications.
15. WHAT’S YOUR LEADERSHIP STYLE?
• Try sharing leadership examples. Say "The best way for me to answer that is to give you a
few examples of leadership challenges I've faced," and then share situations where you
dealt with a problem, motivated a team, worked through a crisis. Explain what you did
and that will give the interviewer a great sense of how you lead.
16. TELL ME ABOUT HOW YOU THINK OTHER
PEOPLE WOULD DESCRIBE YOU.
• This is an example of what you could say:
• "I think people would say that what you see is what you get," the candidate said. "If I say
I will do something, I do it. If I say I will help, I help. I'm not sure that everyone likes me, but
they all know they can count on what I say and how hard I work."
17. WHAT CAN WE EXPECT FROM YOU IN YOUR
FIRST 3 MONTHS?
• In general, your future employer should have plans and expectations for you, but could use
this general framework if you must answer this question:
• You'll work hard to determine how your job creates value -- you won't just stay busy; you'll stay
busy doing the right things.
• You'll learn how to serve all your constituents -- your boss, your employees, your peers, your
customers, and your suppliers and vendors.
• You'll focus on doing what you do best -- you'll be hired because you bring certain skills, and
you'll apply those skills to make things happen.
• You'll make a difference -- with customers, with other employees, to bring enthusiasm and
focus and a sense of commitment and teamwork.
18. WHAT DO YOU LIKE TO DO OUTSIDE OF
WORK?
• Many companies feel cultural fit is extremely important, and they use outside interests as
a way to determine how you will fit into a team.
• Focus on activities that indicate some sort of growth: skills you're trying to learn, goals
you're trying to accomplish.
• For example, "I'm raising a family, so a lot of my time is focused on that, but I'm using my
commute time to learn Spanish."
19. WHAT QUESTIONS DO YOU HAVE FOR
ME?
• Don't waste this opportunity. Ask smart questions, not just as a way to show you're a great
candidate but also to see if the company is a good fit for you -- after all, you're being
interviewed, but you're also interviewing the company.
• For example:
• What do you expect me to accomplish in the first 90 days?
• What are the three traits your top performers have in common?
• What really drives results in this job?
• What percentage of employees was brought in by current employees?
20. OFF-THE WALL OR EXTREME
QUESTIONS
• Most strange or tough interview questions are actually asked for a very valid reason, even
if it feels ridiculous (or terrifying) in the moment.
• Your interviewer isn’t necessarily looking for a right answer. He wants to determine how
quickly you can think on your feet, how you’ll approach a difficult situation, and, most
importantly, whether you can remain positive and proactive and make progress in the
face of a challenge.
• Some examples:
• Why are manhole covers round?/If you were a pizza delivery man, how would you benefit
from scissors?/How would you test an elevator?/What do you think of garden
gnomes?/What’s your favorite song? Perform it for us now/If you were a tree, what kind of
tree would you be and why?
