I need to prepare for C# interview which book is the best and shortest? Thanks

Rob Miles C# Yellow Book
Good, short, and free

If you're looking for something short, I like the pocket references from O'Reilly: http://oreilly.com/catalog/9781449394011/
Normally, you need some knowledge if you want them to be useful though.

Surely you are after C# In Depth by Mr Skeet..?

oreilly's Programing c#. it is several hundred pages, but it is enough detail to answer interview questions, if you can remember a good portion of what you read.

I would skip through the book found at the following link. http://www.amazon.com/Pro-2010-NET-Platform-Fifth/dp/1430225491#reader_1430225491. I know that it is 1712 pages, but if you skim through parts of the book that you only have a rough understanding of, you will be better prepared than skimming through a book that is lacking in information.

I'm looking for full C# standard interfaces list. I'm almost sure that such topic was posted somewhere on MSDN, but I can't find it. Does anyone has a reference?
im sorry but such doc does not exist...
See, msdn documentation is organized by "namespaces", so... you can see that such document would not fit anywhere... by the way, why would you want that?!? if you compile the documents of each interface in the basics dll (system, text, system.data, linq, etc...) you would have a quite large document that would cause more confusion than "de-confusion", since in diferent namespaces interfaces may have the same name...

I'm particularly interested in some Visual Studio plugins (or maybe built-in functionality I don't know of) that can help me with that...
You can do this with perfmon - can I suggest you read this article on MSDN magazine that describes auditing memory in detail:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/dd882521.aspx
Good luck!
System.Process has a lot of properties you can use to analyse memory usage.
You can get a handle on the current process like this Process.GetCurrentProcess() or another process using one the Process.GetProcessXXX(..) methods

I m doing a project which invoves extracting the semantics of a word. While doing some resaerch I found out it's better to get Synonyms of a word rather than trying to extract semantics.
What is the best way of doing this. I only need to get the synonym of a word.
Please help.
Find a thesaurus. Pay attention to its licensing. E.g., Roget's Thesaurus. There may be one that is better-suited to being parsed programmatically.
Parse the thesaurus. For example, you could might store it in a Dictionary<string,List<string>>.
Look up entries as needed. How this is done depends on what data structure you stored it in. It's pretty easy in a Dictionary.
If you have trouble with a specific step in this process, feel free to ask. Your question is a bit too open-ending for me to know exactly what part to focus on.

Edit: (Being more concise to avoid rubbing up against other questions)
I see the link for some suggested books... Books are good but I prefer the web. I can try them out free right away. And I'm a guy that likes multiple sources of information either way.
I am also a big believer in tutorials over just reading. Something I can try out and then modify or do my own way. (I just made a blog in PHP/Zend since that was originally going to be the project language)
And I didn't see what made the best references (which is in my mind entirely different from a learning resource). Though I'm sure I'll figure this out naturally as I google issues that crop up.
There's this website called Stackoverflow that's pretty good
According to MS: http://www.asp.net/
Theres also channel 9: http://channel9.msdn.com/
I enjoy Pluralsight's video offerings and TechEd online videos.
Another good resource is 4GuysFromRolla.
Microsoft has a Beginners' Learning Center.
For paid training, Pluralsight (mentioned above) and TekPub are both highly rated.

How can I become an expert in C# and any language I learn?
Also, what are some recommended books....?
Is really easy. Learn all features of the language, then study the framework and read when to apply each feature.
A great place to start is the Head First series.
The Head First C# book is totally awesome. I learned a lot from it, and it's super easy, comprehensive (and fun!) to read. (Amazon Link)
Then just start a project on your own and apply what you learned. You will pick up faster than you think you can!
Good luck on your quest!
