    Letter One

    21 July, 2008

    Dear Sirs,

    　　Our foreman, Mr．Li Ming, had an accident on July 6, 2008．He crushed his forefinger when operating a machine．At that time, we didn’t think the accident was serious enough to report, but Mr．Li has returned to his work after an absence of two weeks and is still unable to carry on his normal duties．We therefore wish to make a claim(索赔)under the above policy(保险单)and shall appreciate your sending us the necessary claim form．

    Yours faithfully,

    (Signature)

    Letter Two

    27 July, 2008

    Dear Sirs,

    　　We have received your letter of July 21 and noted that you made a claim for the accident of Mr．Li Ming．We would, however, remind you of the terms of the policy that this claim should have been submitted within three days after the accident．More than two weeks have now passed．Consequently, your claim to compensation(赔偿)under the policy has been forfeited(放弃、没收)．

    　　Nevertheless, as an exceptional measure, we have decided to overlook its late submission, though we are bound to say that it should have been clear from Mr．Li’s absence from work that this accident was more serious than you had supposed and that there seems to be no good reason why this claim should not have been made earlier．

    　　We are enclosing(附上)a claim form as requested, but must emphasize that future claims cannot be entertained if you cannot comply with the terms of the policy．

    Yours faithfully,

    (Signature)

    第三部分：阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分,满分40分）
    阅读下列短文,从每篇短文后所给各题的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
    To all of you at Chinese love links,
    I am 44 years old and never married. I have always wanted to find that perfect someone that I dream about. For about the last five years I have almost given up the hope of ever finding the one I truly wish to spend the rest of my life with.
    I have always tried to be a nice guy. I had found your website some four or five months before. I did not know what to expect. I don't know how to speak Chinese and never thought truly of how I was to an Asian woman.
    Well, I had a lot of replies from some very nice and pretty women. I had a hard time finding only a couple to write to. But one stood out from the rest. She was cute, nice and seemed to hold a lot of the same values as I do. In a short time I had decided to write only to her. We communicated via e - mails 2 - 3 times a day and phone calls once or twice a week.
    I went and met her and her family only a week ago. Her name is Ying and she lives in Nanning. I found Nanning to be one of the most beautiful cities I had ever been to. We had even decided to marry and to bring her to the USA under the fiance visa. Not only did she meet everything I had ever hoped to find in someone else but turned out to be what every woman should be like, at least the ones I have met. We plan to marry as soon as she is here and start a family together as neither of us has children but we both want them.
    So to anyone out there reading this, I can only say this: You may not find what you are looking for if you're not honest with your partner and yourself. This site worked for me mostly because I was honest with something that I wanted in someone else. When I did find her, love can work even across the other side of the world, between language differences and cultural differences. I wish you all luck in finding your perfect match. I have finally found mine and wish to give all my thanks to those at Chinese love links to help make it happen.
    Sincerely yours,
    Arthur
