To the Editor:
     I have been reading your newspaper, the Hometown Gazette, for the past two years,ever since I moved to
Smithville. We moved here from New York City, so I am accustomed to reading excellent newspapers such as
The New York Times. In fact, we still have the Times delivered on Sundays. The entire family enjoys reading
the recipes in the paper, as well as the Styles section.
     The Times is great, but _____. I've never read an article that doesn't contain at least three or four spelling
or grammatical errors. For instance, in last week's issue, you misspelled the word "secretary", used a singular
verb with a plural noun, and used "it's" as a possessive. And that was just in the lead story! In case you never
went to elementary school, "it's" means"it is". It's not a possessive adjective!
     It's a pity that this tiny little hick (土氣的) town has only one newspaper, because I'd like to have an
alternative to the rag you publish.
I find it hard to believe your news stories. If you can't spell correctly, how
can you get your facts right?
     I've been meaning to get this off my chest for some time. Please cancel my subscription. And buy yourself
a dictionary. 
                                                                                                                                       Sincerely,
                                                                                                                                       Jane Z. Jones

第II卷 (非選擇題、共35分)
第三部分:寫作           (必須使用黑色筆答題,其它顏色無效)
第一節(jié)閱讀表達(dá) (共5小題, 每小題2分,滿分10分)
Most people say “yes” much more readily than “no”.
A friend is moving house this weekend and would like some help, and you agree. But, what you really wanted was relaxing at home for a couple of quiet days. Or a roommate spends the whole weekend playing video games and wants to borrow your homework for “reference”. But, you’ve just finished it after working hard for a whole day.
Many people say “yes” to this kind of requests. They tend not to consider their own interests and feelings, and are often angry with themselves afterwards. Saying “no” requires courage and considerable practice. “Everyone wants to be liked,” says Gabriele Steinki, a German psychologist, “Saying ‘no’ risks losing the affection of the person asking for the favor. Or even a job.” The result is that many people say “yes” just for keeping the peace. But experts say this regrettable. Anyone should have the right to say “no”. In fact, rejecting a request can even help to stabilize a relationship because it expresses real affection. But, for people accustomed to agreeing every request, it’s very distressing to say “no”.
Most people believe that if they say “no”, they’ll lose the affection of the person. But the affection is important to them. This way of thinking can be replaced by this: “If he only likes me because I always do what suits him, then the price of this affection is too high in the long term.”
When people saying “no”, Steinki advises giving the reasons calmly until the person gets the message.

第二卷(45分)

第一節(jié):閱讀表達(dá)(每小題3分,共15分。)

閱讀下面的短文,并根據(jù)要求回答問題。

         Confidence: you’ve either got it or you haven’t, right? Wrong. Most people learn confidence

as they go through life.

         Even if you are shaking like a leaf on the inside, you’ll make a lasting impression if you can come across as confident. Here are some confidence-building tips.

         Fake(假裝) it! If you can pretend that you feel confident when you don’t and keep on doing so, your fake confidence will soon turn into real confidence. It only takes a few repetitions of an activity for it to become a habit—so get in the habit of         .

         Think it. For an instant encouragement to yourself-esteem (自尊心), recall three things that give you positive emotions. It could be a great compliment somebody paid you, a special time when you felt happy and popular, or when you really excelled (勝過別人) at something. Bringing them to mind will help you to feel good instantly—and when you feel good, you have greater confidence.

         Focus it. Difficult situations, such as interviews or new jobs, can make you feel shy. If you’re feeling anxious about yourself, stop thinking about yourself and focus on something else. It could be that you focus on something normal, like the view out of the window, or that you pay more attention to the task at hand—getting the job! Either way, you'll feel less awkward.

         Talk it. If you keep telling yourself that you're not good at something, you’ll start to believe it. Next time you blame yourself, ask yourself whether you'd talk to your friends like that. So quit being negative and start recognizing and appreciating the things you are good at.

         Walk it. Great posture can signal great confidence. Walk with a purposeful stride, walk with your back straight and with your head held up high!
