Dear Duke University Admissions,B Thank you for your rejection letter of March 26,2015.After careful consideration,I regret to inform you that I am unable to accept your refusal to offer me admission into the Fall 2015 freshman class at Duke. This year I have been fortunate enough to receive rejection letters from the best and the brightest universities in the country.With a pool of letters so diverse and accomplished I was unable to accept the rejection letters I would have been able to only several years ago.Therefore,I will be attending Duke University's 2015 Class.I look forward to seeing you then. Best, Siobhan O'Dell |
Dear Siobhan,C I understand how disappointed you are that we were unable to offer you a space in our incoming class,I want to be honest with you and let you know that it's very rare that we learn something that leads us to change our decision,in the last ten years we've about 500 requests for a review…and changed the decision four times Wish you all the best~ XXX |
分析 本文属于广告类阅读,文章一共介绍了三封信件,主要是UCAS写给申请人Siobha的信和Duke大学回复给申请人Siobhan以及他回复给大学的信件.
解答 56.B 细节辨认题.根据文章中信件B的落款是Siobhan O'Dell和信件C的称呼是Dear Siobhan判断应该是C写给B的,故选B.
57.C 细节辨认题.根据题干关键词Chances for Duke University to change its admission decision知道的文章的对应信件是C,其中的I want to be honest with you and let you know that it's very rare that we learn something that leads us to change our decision,in the last ten years we've about 500 requests for a review…and changed the decision four times可知Duke大学500年来只有四次介绍被拒绝的学生再次申请成功,机会是渺茫的.故选C.
58.A 细节辨认题.根据信件A中的Alternatively you may wish to resubmit next year by tying your letter to an owl and hoping for the best.On behalf of UCAS I wish you every success.可知把信放在猫头鹰上寄给UCAS,是不可能提交申请的,故选A.
59.D 判断推理题.通读三封信件,根据I want to be honest with you and let you know that it's very rare that we learn something that leads us to change our decision,in the last ten years we've about 500 requests for a review…and changed the decision four times.可知Duke大学也可根据正常程序之外的额外工作而录取学生,故选D.
