阅读下面的短文,并根据短文后的要求答题     With many job postings(公开招聘) now requiring candidates (应聘者) to apply via e-mail, first impressions
are made not with a handshake but with words on a computer screen.
     Just like it"s usually a good idea to dress best for an interview, e-mails also should be refined. _____, here
are some tips:
     ☆Forget what instant messaging has taught you.
     Recruiters (招聘人员) report that young professionals often send overly casual e-mails, treating an
application like an instant message (IM). When using IM with friends and acquaintances, it"s acceptable to use
shortened forms of words or phrases and incomplete sentences. In business correspondence (信函), however,
stick to the rules your Chinese and English teachers taught you.
     ☆Don"t be cool.
     Your lovely e-mail background of pets playing with each other has got to go. Comic fonts (字体) are
unprofessional. HR managers (人力资源经理) recommend plain fonts such as Times New Roman or Arial,
and black text on a white background. They also warn against sending e-mails from strange addresses.
Littlebird@ or Chinatiger@ might not get what you hope for.
     ☆Don"t be too creative in the subject line (标题).
     Use plain, simple language like "Talented candidate seeking position as [name of position]" or"Enthusiastic
candidate seeking position with [name of company]". Use one word to describe yourself, but do not go to
extremes.
     The same rules apply to a paper resume (简历) and cover letter. Recruiters have only seconds to devote
to each cover letter they receive. Many look at just three things: the positions you"ve held, the companies
you"ve worked for,and your educational background. Anything else, such as a long story about yourself, can
get in the way.

1. What"s the purpose of this passage?(please answer within 15 words)
_____________________________________________________________________________
2. Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one? You should avoid using
    very cool or lovely background in your application e-mail.
______________________________________________________________________________
3. Please fill in the blank in the second paragraph with proper words or phrases to complete the
    sentence.( please answer within 10 words)
_____________________________________________________________________________
4. According to the passage, what should an e-mail application be like?
    ( please answer within 10 words)

阅读理解。     Most Americans would have a difficult time telling you, specifically, what are the values which Americans
live by. They have never given the matter any thought.
     Over the years I have introduced thousands of international visitors to life in the United States. This has
caused me to try to look at Americans through the eyes of foreign visitors. I am confident that the values
listed in this booklet describe most( but not all) Americans, and that understanding these values can help you,
the international visitor, understand Americans.
      It is my belief that if foreign visitors really understand how deeply these 13 values are ingrained in
Americans, they will then be able to understand 95% of American actions-actions which might otherwise
appear "strange","confusing", or "unbelievable" when evaluated from the perspective ( aspect) of the foreigner"s
own society and its values.
     The different behaviors of a people or a culture make sense only when seen through the basic beliefs,
assumptions and values of that particular group. When you encounter ( meet) an action, or hear a statement in
the United States which surprises you, try to see it as an expression of one or more of the values listed in this
booklet. 1. An ordinary American can"t tell you his/her value system because _____.A. this is something an American lives by
B. everyone will have his/her own value system
C. he/she has never thought about it

阅读理解。     Concern with money, and then more money, in order to buy the conveniences and luxuries of modern
life, has brought great changes to the lives of most Frenchmen. More people are working than ever before
in France. In the cities the traditional leisurely midday meal is disappearing. Offices, shops and factories are
discovering the great efficiency of a short lunch hour in company lunch rooms. In almost all lines of work
emphasis now falls on ever-increasing output. Thus the "typical" Frenchman produces more, earns more,
and buys more consumer goods than his counterpart of only a generation ago. He gains in creature comforts
and ease of life. What he loses to some extent is his sense of personal uniqueness, or individuality.
     Some say that France has been Americanized. This is because the United States is a world symbol of the
technological society and its consumer products. The so-called Americanization of France has its critics.
They fear that"assembly-line life" will lead to the disappearance of the pleasures of the more graceful and
leisurely(but less productive)old French style. What will happen, they ask, taste, elegance, and the cultivation
of the good things in life - to joy in the smell of a freshly picked apple, a stroll by the river, or just happy
hours of conversation in a local café?   
     Since the last 1950"s life in France has indeed taken on qualities of rush,tension, and the pursuit of
material gain. Some of the strongest critics of the new way of life are the young, especially university
students. They are concerned with the future, and they fear that France is threatened by the triumph of this
competitive, goods-oriented culture. Occasionally, they have reacted against the trend with considerable
violence.   
     In spite of the critics, however, countless Frenchmen are committed to keeping France in the forefront
of the modern economic world. They find that the present life brings more rewards, conveniences, and
pleasures than that of the past. They believe that a modern, industrial France is preferable to the old. 1. Which of the following is a feature of the old French way of life?A. Leisure, elegance, and efficiency.
B. Elegance, efficiency, and taste.
C. Leisure, elegance, and taste.
D. Efficiency, taste, and convenient. 2. Which of the following is NOT true about Frenchmen? A. Many of them prefer the modern life style.
B. They actually enjoy working at the assembly line.
C. They are more concerned with money than before.
D. They are more competitive than the old generation. 3. The passage suggests that _____. A. great changes have occurred in the life style of all Frenchmen
B. it"s now unlikely to see a Frenchman enjoying a stroll by the river
C. the French are fed up with the smell of freshly picked apples
D. in pursuing material gains the French are suffering losses elsewhere 4. The main idea of the passage is "_____ ". A. Changes in the French Way of Life
B. Criticism of the New Life Style
C. The Americanization of France
D. Features of the New Way of Life

阅读理解。     With smart phones taking the world by Storm, a phone that can only send and receive voice calls and text
messages may seem like a relic from a bygone age. Yet in East Africa,simple phones like these are changing
the face of the economy, thanks to the mobile money services that are spreading across the region.
     Using the text-messaging function built into the GSM system (全球通) used by most cell phone networks,
these services allow people without a bank account or credit card to use their phone as an electronic wallet that
can be used to store. send or receive cash.
     It works like this: you pay cash to your local agent who then tops up your mobile money account using a
secure form of text messaging. That money can be transferred (转账) to another person by sending a message
to their cell phone account.
     For some the system is a lifeline."If I didn,t have my mobile phone. I would be very poor,"says Neyasse
Neemur, a mother of four children who lives in northern Kenya."Now I can sell fish."
     Neemur took up fishing in July last year, but making money from it was a little tricky, especially as
Turkana people do not usually eat fish. A truck from Ethiopia to Tanzania passes through her village once a
week, and she arranged to have the driver transport the fish several hundred kilometres south to market in
Kisumu, where her relatives sell the fish.
     "I get the money transfer immediately." says Neemur."Then I can pay for my children to go to school
and for vegetables and beans," she adds,"so I don"t need to eat fish."
     According to the Central Bank of Kenya, payments worth around l billion Kenyan shillings ($13 million)
per day were transferred through Kenya,s mobile money systems in 2009, equalling the country,s credit card
transactions (业务). The bank expects mobile money transfers to overtake credit cards in 2011.1. In Paragraph l,the author uses "simple phones" to _______. A. make a comparison
B. introduce a topic
C. describe a scene

C. They provide a safe means for the locals to do business.
D. They can do nothing except send and receive calls or messages. 3. The word "it" in the third paragraph refers to ______. A. the GSM system
B. the mobile money service
C. the credit card service
D. the cell phone networks 4. The story of Neyasse Neemur suggests that ______. A. the mobile money service plays a key rote in the locals, life
