In writing a letter of application, keep in 39 that the things a possible employer is most
40 to want to know about are your qualifications（条件）, your achievements and your aims.The opening paragraph is perhaps the most important part. 41 the first few sentences fail to 42 the reader’s attention, the rest of the letter may not be 43 at all. Try to key your opening remarks to the needs or interests of the employer not 44 your own need or desires. For example, instead of beginning with “I saw your 45 in today"s paper. ”you might say“I have made a careful 46 of your advertising during the past six months” or “I have made a survey in my neighbourhood to find out how many housewives 47 your product and why they like it.”
Try to 48 generalities. Be clear about the kind of job for which you are now 49 . College graduates looking for their first positions often ask“ What can I 50 in a letter? Employers want experience, which, naturally, no 51 has. ”The answer is that everything you have ever done is 52 .
It is important to write a good strong closing for your letter. 53 a specific request for an interview or give the possible employer something definite to do or expect. An excellent 54 is to enclose（内附）a stamped, self - addressed envelope with your letter. That makes it 55 for a possible employer to get in touch with you.

答案
解析
37．B信上写明你的能力和工作经历。前面已说明your abilites，此处不选C、D。
38．C leave out表示“遗漏”，不遗漏任何重要内容。
39．D keep sth.in mind为固定搭配，表示“记住”。
40．C A、B不能修饰人，因此，用be likely do表示“可能会……”。
41．D if引导假设状语从句，阐述如果求职信不能吸引别人的注意会有什么结果。
42．B “开头几句没有能够吸引到读者的注意”。
43．D 如果开头几句吸引不了读者，其余部分对方就不会去看了。
44．A 与上文形成对照与呼应，“针对雇主的要求”而不是“针对你的要求”。
45．A 下文的your advertising是明确的提示，指对方在报上刊的招聘广告。
46．C 此处用make a study与下文的make a survey均表示“研究，考虑”。
47．D 下文说“她们为什么喜欢”，可见与“使用”是相联系的，喜欢才会去用，用过才觉得喜欢。
48．A generality表示“笼统”，说清楚你的需求，不要过于笼统抽象。
49．B apply for表示“申请”，既然是求职信，当然是为了“申请工作”。
50．D “求职信中应该给对方提供什么信息呢?”provide表示“（为……）提供”，offer表示“（愿意）给”，不合文意。
51．B 既然是no…has experience，只有刚开始找工作的graduates没有经验，因此选B。
52．D 从上下文看，作者说只要你做过的事都可以称为经验／经历。
53．A make a request for sth.的意思是request，“恳请，要求”，make的此类用法十分常见，如make an answer／reply／
54．D 在信内附上一张有地址和邮票的信封，这是个好主意，而不是决定保证等。
55．B 这种情况下雇主与你联系就很方便了，因为回信封已准备好了，地址也写了。

If you look carefully at the plants around you， you will find that there are two kinds of plants： flowering plants and non-flowering plants. Flowering plants can make seeds. The seeds are protected by the fruits. Some fruits have one seed， some have two， three or four， and some have many seeds. But a few fruits have no seeds at all. An example of a fruit without seeds is the banana fruit. Most non-flowering plants do not grow from seeds. They grow from spores（胚芽）。 Spores are very small. Some spores are so small and light that they can float in the air. We may say that spores are quite the same as seeds. When these spores are all on wet and shady places， they usually grow into new plants.
62.小题1:The main idea of the first paragraph is that ______.
| A．plants are important for life | B．plants cannot grow without air |
| C．there are many plants in the world | D．we can not live without water |
| A．Of all living things animals are most. | B．Spores are seeds. |
| C．All fruits of flowering plants have seeds. | D．Without plants，man will die out. |
| A．Kept. | B．Guarded. | C．Prevented. | D．Surrounded |
| A．a medicine book | B．a novel |
| C．a science magazine | D．an experiment report |
Indoor air pollution can cause a person to feel tired, to suffer eye-pain, headache and other problems. Some pollutants（污染物） can cause breathing disorders, diseases of blood and even cancer, Most scientists agree that every modern house has some kind of indoor pollution. People began to notice the problem in the early 1970s. It is that when builders began making houses and offices they did not waste energy. To do this they built buildings that limited the flow of air between inside and outside. They also began using manmade building materials. These materials are now known to let out harmful gases. As the problem became more serious, scientists began searching for a way to deal with it. They discovered a natural pollution control system for building— green plants. Scientists do not really know how plants control air pollution. They believe that a plant’s leaves absorb or take in the pollutants. In exchange the plant lets out oxygen through its leaves and through its tiny organizations on its roots. Scientists suggest that all buildings should have one large plant or several small plants inside for every nine square metres of space. Studies of different plants show that each absorbs different chemicals. So the most effective way to clean the air is to use different kinds of plants. Having green plants inside your house can make it a prettier and more healthy place.
小题1:Generally speaking, indoor air pollution may be more harmful than the air outside because ________.
| A．the man - made building materials let out dangerous gases inside houses |
| B．there may be more harmful gases outside houses |
| C．the flow of air indoors is limited |
| D．indoor air pollution can make a person seriously ill |
| A．they may let out more oxygen which people need |
| B．they can absorb different kinds of the harmful indoor chemicals |
| C．they can take in all kinds of indoor pollutants |
| D．they can make your house prettier and more healthy |
Scientists have given much time and 48 to the study of insects. It needs the most careful and 49 observation.

Scientists are using powerful radio telescopes to listen to signals from about 1, 000 stars, all within 100 light years of earth. In addition, they will scan（扫视）the entire sky to “listen” for radio messages from more distant stars. Using a computer, they will be able to monitor more than eight channels at one time. Scientists are looking for any signal they stands out from the background noise.
Of the 200 billion stars in the Milky Way galaxy（银河星系）, scientists find that five percent are like our sun. Perhaps half of them have a planet like earth. Such a planet would be a reasonable distance from the star for temperatures to be right for the evolution（进化）of life. Based on the inhabitable（that can be lived in）planets in our galaxy, most scientists agree that chances are likely that one or more of these planets support some life.
However, many scientists wonder whether intelligent（有智力的）life exists on other planets. Some believe that twenty years of searching without any intelligible messages shows that no one is out there. They say that the evolution of intelligence comparable to ours is unlikely.
Other scientists believe that our search hasn’t been long enough to rule out the possibility that intelligent life exists in our galaxy. Although our sun family is only about five billion years old, our galaxy is about 20 billion years old. In that time, some scientists think it is likely that civilization（文明）much more advanced than ours have developed. Perhaps these civilizations send us no signals; perhaps we have not recognized the signals they have sent us. If we hope to find intelligent life, these scientists believe that we have to keep looking.

| A．5 billion． | B．10 billion. |

| A．The earth is one of the oldest planets in our galaxy. |
| B．Most scientists believe that there is intelligent life on other planets. |

The most proper answer would be (c) because the person in front of you is only a tourist trying to enjoy himself. The de¬vice is said to be the world’s first portable(便携的) translator — a hand-held microcomputer that at the same time translates one spoken language into another. The four-pound, battery-op¬erated product is called the Voice, and it is the invention of Advanced Products and Technologies, an American electronics company. When the Voice is introduced in the Unite States in late April — at a price of (1,500 — it will be used to trans¬late spoken English into Italian, German, French and Span¬ish. The product comes with separate cartridges(盒式存储器) for each of the four languages, which can be changed when the user travels from one country to another. It will be sold in Eu¬rope soon after the US introduction, with cartridges that trans¬late Italian, German, French and Spanish into English.
The Voice uses a microchip(微型集成电路片) to trans¬late languages. It is Started by voice command and produces voice output through a built-in speaker. When the user makes a statement or asks a question, the Voice immediately repeats what has been said in another language.
