Nobody can avoid making a mistake at some point in their life. We might as well accept that something will go wrong and we will be to blame. It is therefore wise to work out some strategies for apologizing, and the best way to apologize is by letter.

We all say or do something that we wish we hadn’t said or done. You may say something that accidentally hurts someone, or you may provide a service which doesn’t come up to the standards that a client or customer expected. You may feel that it was a genuine mistake which couldn’t be avoided. Rather than dwell on the mistake, you should quickly try to remedy(補(bǔ)救) the problem. An effective letter of apology is an important part of that process.

For the content of the letter, just remember TABS-Timing, Action, Briefness, Sincerity.

The time of a letter of apology is important-it must be sent as soon as possible. Any delay in sending the letter will only worsen the problem. In this case “Better late than never” is not the best motto! The longer you wait before writing a letter of apology, the more it will seem that you have been forced into writing it.

Although it is important to recognize what has gone before, it is also essential to detail the action you plan to take to correct whatever you did wrong.

A letter of apology should be brief and the word “sorry” should appear no more than twice. Indicate that you are aware you are using it a second time “once again, I am so sorry for…” or “as I said earlier, I am really sorry about…”

1.What’s the passage mainly about?

A. Advice on making fewer mistakes.

B. Strategies for making an apology.

C. Advice on writing a letter of apology.

D. Importance of a timely letter of apology.

2.The underlined part in Paragraph 2 means you ______.

A. don’t have to take the mistake you made seriously

B. don’t waste time worrying about what happened

C. forget about what happened

D. analyze who was at fault

34. 3.What can we learn from Paragraph 4?

A. It’s important to apologize timely.

B. A mistake is not always easy to clear.

C. People are always unwilling to apologize.

D. People should think twice before apologizing.

4.What will be discussed following the last paragraph?

A. The sincere tone of the letter.

B. The proper length of the letter.

C. An apology email, choice of the 21st century.

D. The importance of saying “sorry” more than twice.

Sometimes your biggest weakness can become your biggest strength. Take, for example, the story of one 10-year-old boy who decided to study judo despite the fact that he had lost his left arm in a devastating car accident.

The boy began lessons with an old Japanese judo master. The boy was doing well, so he couldn't understand why, after three months of training, the master had taught him only one move.“Sensei,” the boy finally said, “shouldn't I be learning more moves?”“This is the only move you know, but this is the only move you'll ever need to know,” the sensei replied.

Not quite understanding, but believing in his teacher, the boy kept training.

Several months later, the sensei took the boy to his first tournament. Surprising himself, the boy easily won his first two matches. The third match proved to be more difficult, but after some time, his opponent became impatient and charged; the boy skillfully used his one move to win the match. Still amazed by his success, the boy was now in the finals. This time, his opponent was bigger, stronger, and more experienced. For a while, the boy appeared to be overmatched. Concerned that the boy might get hurt, the referee called a time-out. He was about to stop the match when the sensei intervened.

“No,” the sensei insisted, “Let him continue.” Soon after the match resumed, his opponent made a critical mistake: he dropped his guard. Instantly, the boy used his move to pin him. The boy had won the match and the tournament. He was the champion.

On the way home, the boy and sensei reviewed every move in each and every match. Then the boy summoned the courage to ask what was really on his mind. “Sensei, how did I win the tournament with only one move?” “You won for two reasons,” the sensei answered. “First, you've almost mastered one of the most difficult throws in all of judo. Second, the only known defense for that move is for your opponent to grab your left arm.”

The boy's biggest weakness had become his biggest strength.

1.we can infer from Paragraph 2 that the teacher__________.

A. was unwilling to teach the boy

B. regarded mastering one move as extremely important.

C. worried about the boys ability

D. trained the boy to win judo tournaments

2.After the boy came in the finals, __________.

A. he feared to get hurt.

B. the teacher felt satisfied

C. he thought of giving up.

D. the judge stopped the game.

3.The underlined expression “be overmatched” in Paragraph 3 is closed in meaning to__________.

A. lose heart

B. lose patience

C. be defeated

D. be monitored

4.How did the boy’s teacher explain his success of the tournament?

A. His opponent was too confident and careless.

B. The boy was experienced in playing the games.

C. His opponent didn't notice the boys left hand.

D. The boy made use of his judo skill and weakness.

5.What is the purpose of the passage?

A. To suggest we turn weakness into strength.

B. To encourage us to insist in a match.

C. To show us how to win a match luckily.

D. To tell us to choose an experienced teacher.

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C、D)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng),并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。

At home, ordering food from a menu is a normal, everyday routine. I don’t even give it a second thought. In China, it’s a whole other story! Here, ordering is a fun game of trial and error, and the adventure begins before the food is even served!

Many restaurants in central Beijing advertise “English language menus”, but the translations can just add to the confusion. Although accompanying pictures can be a helpful relief, the translations often make the whole experience even more amusing. During my first few weeks in China I tried some delicious dishes with off-the-wall names. As an experiment, my friends and I would order things like “students addicted to chicken gristle (軟骨)” and “red burned lion head”. It was always fun to see what landed on our table. Eventually we learned that “l(fā)ion head” was actually pork, and “students” are “addicted” to diced (切碎的) chicken with green pepper.

Recently, I came across a busy restaurant down a narrow side street in a Beijing hutong. It was lunchtime and the small room was packed with people sitting on small stools (凳子) eating noodles. I was hungry and cold, and the steaming bowls looked irresistible! I sat myself down and called out for a “caidan!” In response, the waitress pointed to a wall at the back of the restaurant. The wall was full of Chinese characters describing numerous dishes. There was only one sentence in English: “crossing over the bridge noodles”.

I had never heard of the dish and had no idea what it would taste like. I took a gamble and ordered one bowl of “crossing over the bridge noodles”. A few minutes later the waitress carried over a heavy bowl full of broth (肉湯) and I quickly dug in. It was the best bowl of noodles I had ever tasted! I have been back again and again and each time I point at the one English sentence – “crossing over the bridge noodles”. I always enter a restaurant in China feeling excited and a little nervous. Who knows what the next ordering adventure will show?

1.How does the writer find the English-language menus in many of Beijing’s restaurants?

A. Confusing but amusing. B. Easy to understand.

C. Boring and annoying. D. Accurate and helpful.

2.The underlined word “gamble” in the last paragraph probably means ______.

A. taste B. look C. step D. risk

3.The passage deals with ______.

A. the author’s favorite Chinese dishes

B. the fun the author had ordering food in China’s restaurant

C. a comparison between Western food and Chinese food

D. the correct way to translate the names of Chinese dishes into English

4.The passage is developed mainly in the form of _____________.

A. examples and statements

B. comparison and conclusion

C. causes and effects

D. time and description

Nature is full of color, from rainbows and roses to butterfly wings and peacock tails. Even the fruits and vegetables you eat have different colors: blue blueberries, red strawberries, green broccoli, and orange carrots.

Plant and animals often use color to attract attention. The substances responsible for these colors belong to a class of chemical called antioxidants(抗氧化物). Plants make antioxidant to protect themselves from the sun's ultraviolet(紫外線)light.

Ultraviolet light causes chemicals called free radicals(自由基)to form within plant cells. They can destroy parts of plant. Free radicals also have damaging effects on human beings. Some of these effects like wrinkled skin can be seen. The damage is caused by the free radicals attacking cells in our bodies. Certain cancers and heart disease are linked to free radicals.

Our bodies have natural defences for fighting off free radicals. While we are young, our defences are pretty strong. However, they get weaker as we get older. The body’s built-in defences can only go so far without extra help.

The key to fighting free radicals with fruits and vegetables is to mix and match colors. It’s like sunscreen(防曬霜)for the inside of your body. Go for a range of very bright colors. Colorful foods contain hundreds of healthy chemicals not found anywhere else.

Research into how chemicals in blueberries affect the brain's function in rats suggests that these chemicals may help our own brains work more efficiently.

Don't just blame the sun. Ultraviolet light isn't the only source of free radicals. If you breathe polluted air such as smog, automobile exhaust(廢氣), or wasted gas from a factory, you take in chemicals that also cause such damage. And, the body itself produces free radicals as it processes food.

1.Which of the following NOT true?

A.Antioxidants are responsible for plant colors.

B.Plants use color to attract attention.

C.Antioxidants help free radicals to attack plants.

D.Antioxidants can protect plants from ultraviolet light.

2.In which order do the following facts occur?

a .Wrinkled skin can be seen

b .Ultraviolet light causes free radicals to form

c .Free radicals damage cells in our bodies

d .The sun gives out ultraviolet light

A.a(chǎn),b,c,d B.d,b,a,c

C.c,a,d,b D.d,b,c,a

3. We need extra help for fighting off free radicals from fruits and vegetables because ____.

A.our defences get weaker as we get older

B.our bodies’ defences are not natural

C.we are too young to defend ourselves

D.our bodies’ built-in defences can only go away

4.Which of the following can NOT cause free radicals to form?

A.Ultraviolet light from the sun

B.Colorful food

C.Polluted air

D.The body itself
