7.[1]My daughter did an experiment for me two summers ago.She applied to job openings she'd found on a couple of big online job boards.She mailed the applications and waited.And waited.After sending out 100 resumes(履歷表),specially addressed to each organization's human resources(HR) manager,fewer than five HR departments took the time to reply,or acknowledged receipt.
[2]What happened?
[3]Maybe in the thirty seconds or so of attention that her resume received,each HR person made a snap decision.It seemed that 95 of them were unimpressioned.
[4]Or,maybe,out of the 300 other resumes HR had received that morning,they had already scheduled a requisite(必要的) number of interviews.Or,maybe HR simply forwarded her resume to the hiring manager who was supposed to call her for an interview.
[5]Or,maybe they thought her resume was fairly generic(一般的) and they didn't have time to figure out if she might be a good fit,with the necessary skills,attitudes,and the desire to do the job.
[6]Most likely,the real reason why she didn't get an interview was the last one.HR didn't have time to figure out how she would work in their company.
[7]This happens all the time.I think most job seekers make the serious mistake of thinking that all they need to do is tell the HR department what they did in the past.
[8]That might be OK for some hiring managers,but most want to know the answer to one question:How can this applicant help us right now?If your resume does not answer that question,or sufficiently tell a story about how you may be able to help,you won't have a shot at the job in this market.
[9]Before you can answer that question,however,you need to do some research on the company.Find out everything you can about the company,including the departments,the people,the products,markets,and the plans for the future.
[10]Information is power,and it is available quite easily.Don't expect HR to figure out how you might fit into their organization.You _________ instead.This is the surest way to get the interview.
 
76.What's the main idea of this passage?(within 20 words)How to turn a job application into an interview./Reasons forfailing and suggestions on succeeding in a job interview.
77.Which sentence in the text is the closest in meaning to the following one?
You should tell the HR what you can do for them in your resume and then you may be able to find a job.
If your resume does not answer that question,or sufficiently tell a story about how you may be able to help,you won't have a shot at the job in this market.
78.Fill in the blank in the last paragraph with proper words.(within 8 words)
make it clear in advance/figure it out beforehand
79.List two of the reasons why most HR managers even didn't give the girl a reply.
(each within 10 words)
①Her resume was unimpressed./The HR wasn't impressed withher resume.
②The HR got too many resumes at a time.
80.Translate the underlined sentence in Paragraph 7 into Chinese.
我認為大多數(shù)求職者犯了這個嚴重錯誤:他們認為自己所需做的無非是告訴人力資源部門他們曾做過什么..

分析 本文主要介紹工作面試失敗的原因以及建議.

76.How to turn a job application into an interview./Reasons for failing and suggestions on succeeding in a job interview.主旨大意題.  通讀全文可知本文主要介紹工作面試失敗的原因以及建議.
77.If your resume does not answer that question,or sufficiently tella story about how you may be able to help,you won't have a shotat the job in this market.細節(jié)題. 句意是:在你的履歷表上你應(yīng)該告訴人力資源經(jīng)理你能為他們做什么,你或許能得到這個工作.反之,不能獲得.
78.make it clear in advance/figure it out beforehand細節(jié)題. 根據(jù)文章最后一段 Don't expect HR to figure out how you might fit into their organization可知不要期盼人事經(jīng)理解決你如何適應(yīng)公司,你最后提前明確說出理由.
79.(1)Her resume was unimpressed./The HR wasn't impressed withher resume.(2)The HR got too many resumes at a time.(3)TheHR forwarded her resume to someone else.(4)The HR wasn'tsure of her abilities.細節(jié)題. 根據(jù)文章第三 段95 of them were unimpressioned.和第四段they had already scheduled a requisite(必要的) number of interviews和第五段 if she might be a good fit,with the necessary skills,attitudes,and the desire to do the job.可知女孩沒有得到回復(fù)的原因有四個.
80  我認為大多數(shù)求職者犯了這個嚴重錯誤:他們認為自己所需做的無非是告訴人力資源部門他們曾做過什么.翻譯題.本句中that 和what都是引導(dǎo)的賓語從句,all they need to do意為"他們所需要做的事情".

點評 做閱讀表達題時,理清文章的脈絡(luò)、掌握文章的主旨大意,并能運用簡潔的語言表達.回答要有針對性觀點要明確.不要摘抄文章原句.

15.Handwritten thank-you letters are such a simple way of making other people feel good,it is strange that so few people write them any more.At work,a thank-you letter to employees is unbelievably effective.It costs little and has no side effects.The effort involved in writing letters very low.The pleasure on receiving them is very high.(36)C
Doug Conant,manager of Campbell's Soup Company since 2001,knows the power of thank you letters.He said that every day he works with an assistant,combing the company for  people deserving thanks.(37)B Over the past 10years he has sent 30,000thank-you letters to his employees-more than 10each day.The reward is huge:his company has remained one of the most successful in its field for years.
(38)F There seem to be three reasons.Firstly,chief executives(主管)running companies think their own work is more valuable than that of others.(39)G Secondly,they area't close enough to the business to know who deserves thanks.Thirdly,they have forgotten the strange human truth that almost everyone would do almost anything in return for a few words of appreciation.
In these days of such busy schedules and people running all over the place and trying to get ahead,sometimes we forget the simplest things in life are the most powerful and rewarding.You need to think to yourself about a time someone sent you a thank-you and how much it meant to you.(40)E

A.You may ask what side effects exactly mean.
B.He then writes them a thank-you letter.
C.This makes them an excellent way to reward and motivate staff.
D.Why are thank-you letters so important?
E.Always remember to"Do to others whatever you would like them to do to you!"
F.But if these letters ale so uplifting,why don't more managers write them?
G.Since no one ever writes them thank-you letters they don't write any themselves.

16.Early in the last century,yellow fever was one of the worst diseases known.Thousands of people (166)died of it every year.It had been suggested that the yellow fever virus is transmitted by the bite of a certain mosquito.It was (167)thought(認為) that a (168)ccertain kind of mosquito would bite a person ill with yellow fever and then,flying elsewhere,bite (169)another person and(170)ggive him the disease.To prove whether or not this was true,Dr.James Carroll,allowed (171)ssuch a mosquito to bite him after it had bitten a yellow fever patient.
He knew the bite of this mosquito might (172)ccause his death;nevertheless,he made the (173)experiment(嘗試).

15.Directions:Read the passage carefully.Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.
When asked to point out one or two things that are most important to themselves,many put friends ahead of homes,jobs,cloth and cars.
A true friendship carries a long history of experience that determines who we are and keeps us connected.It is a treasure we should protect.Unfortunately,the better friends you are,the more probably you'll have disagreements.And the result can be what you don't want-an end to the relationship.
The good news is that most troubled friendships can be mended.First,don't let your pride get in your way.Most of us can forgive each other when differences are brought out in the open.Second,apologize when you're wrong-even if you've been wronged.Over the course of a friendship,even the best people make mistakes.Sometimes,it may be best if the wronged person takes the lead and apologizes.When you apologize,give your friend a chance to admit that he has been wrong.Third,see things from your friend's point of view.And finally,accept that friendships change as our needs and lifestyle change.Making friends can sometimes seem easy.The hard part is keeping the connections strong during the natural ups and downs that have an effect on all relationships.My suggestion:Consider friendship an honor and a gift,and worth the effort to treasure and nurture.

81.What is likely to happen if you have disagreements with your friends?An end to the friendship.
82.The author wrote the article mainly to tell ushow to mend a troubled friendship/the way/tips to mend a troubled friendship.
83.The underlined word nurture probably meansdevelop/take care.
84.What causes the change of friendships?our needs and lifestyle.

12.Xu Hui is very excited.The Senior 1student in a middle school in Beijing will go to Japan with his parents during the Spring Festival.
"Overseas touring has always been a dream for me,"he said happily.
Nowadays,Chinese people enjoy longer holidays,such as the three"Golden Week Holidays"(the Spring Festival,May Day and National Day).They have more time to travel.Rising incomes also make travelling abroad realistic for ordinary Chinese people.
Nearly 7million Chinese travelled overseas in 2001,according to the National Tourism Administration(國家旅游局).The most common problem travellers face is how to choose the best routes.
By the end of 2002,Chinese citizens were allowed to travel to 19foreign countries and regions at their own expense.
The top 10places included Hong Kong,Macao and Thailand.European countries are also becoming increasingly popular.
"More and more Chinese people have shown interest in travelling to Europe,particularly France and Finland,"said Tan Wen,a general manager of China Youth Travel Service."Sooner or later,there will be a peak in European tours."
Another consideration is choosing the right travel agencies and finding the best price.The China Consumers'Association offered tips to consumers on choosing the right travel agencies to help prevent a relaxing vacation from turning into a costly disaster.
"Price should not be the single most important factor in choosing a travel agency,"said Zhang Yuanchao,CCA vice-secretary general.Consumers are advised to choose large State travel agencies with good reputations and official approval to organize overseas tour groups.
Zhang's association dealt with more than 5,000complaints about travel agencies last year.And the majority of the complaints were about random changes in travel routes,bad tour guides,and forced shopping.
Travellers were warned to look carefully at their contracts with agencies and to buy travel insurance.

81.How many reasons are given in the article as to why ordinary Chinese people are traveling abroad more today?( No more than 2words )
two/2 reasons.
82.List two factors Chinese travellers should consider while choosing a travel agency.
( No more than 3words )
Price,reputation (or qualification).
83.What seems to be the most common result of choosing a bad travel agency?
( No more than 12words )
A relaxing vacation may turn into a costly disaster.
84.What would be a good title for this passage?( No more than 6words)
Suggestions for (the) Chinese Travelers..

17.Americans are buying more products and services than ever before through the Internet.And experts say the popularity of online sales is likely to spread to other countries.Online sales now represent as much as 10% of all retail sales in the United States.This has led traditional stores to seek new ways to keep their customers loyal.
Lynne used the Internet to buy everything she needed for her wedding and holiday gifts for her husband and stepdaughter.Other than food,90% of her purchases were made on her home computer."I find that,by being able to go online and choose the things that I need,and have them delivered to me right at my doorstep,I eliminate all the driving,all the crowds,all the noise of that,and I usually get a better selection."
There are a lot of people like her.Experts say American online shopping hit records in both November and December.57% of Americans have bought something electronically.Store owners worry that this growing amount of online sales will hurt their business.Cornell University marketing professor Ed Melaughlin says they can keep their customers by selling goods like clothing,which buyers may want to see and try on before purchasing.The stores could also offer things that are difficult to ship.Besides,some stores can please customers by offering to repair electronic products.
Bill Martin is the founder of Shopper Trak.His business helps stores learn about their customers.He said,"There is still a lot of emotion in the buying decision,you know,that takes place.Often you need that last sense of‘Boy,this is exactly what I want'before you are ready to part with money,and you can't always get that online.It's a rather cold process."
While e-commerce worries some business owners,the only worry for delivery services is keeping up with the number of packages.UPS manager Dana Kline says her company is very busy at this time of year.UPS is so busy that it has filled 55,000temporary work positions during the holiday season.

40.The example of Lynne is mentioned in the passage to showA.
A.online business has changed many Americans'life.
B.online sales will replace traditional sales sooner or later.
C.traditional stores can't offer enough food to their customers.
D.traditional stores find new ways to keep their customers loyal
41.The underlined word"eliminate"in Paragragh2can be replaced byD?
A.Include    B.Decrease    C.Discourage   D.Avoid
42.It is implied in Bill Martin's words thatC.
A.Store owners should learn more about their customers
B.traditional stores can provide goods to buyers more quickly
C.Traditional stores offer a social experience that some people enjoy
D.Some owners are using websites to persuade people to visit their stores
43.The purpose of this passage is to tell usB
A.The challenge online owners are faced with
B.the challenge e-commerce causes to traditional sales
C.The difference between online sales and traditional sales
D.the trouble that customers often meet when purchasing online.
