2．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（补救） 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…"
32．What's the passage mainly about？C
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．
33．The underlined part in Paragraph 2means youB．
A．don't have to take the mistake you made seriously

D．analyze who was at fault
34．What can we learn from Paragraph 4？A
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．
35．What will be discussed following the last paragraph？A
A．The sincere tone of the letter．
B．The proper length of the letter．
C．An apology email，choice of the 21^st century．
D．The importance of saying"sorry"more than twice．

分析本文属于说明文阅读，作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了道歉信的写法的几条建议，以及注意事项Timing，Action，Briefness，Sincerity．

解答 32．C．主旨大意题．根据An effective letter of apology is an important part of that process．可知，本文主要是给道歉信的写法提供建议．故选C．
33．B．句意理解题．根据后半句的意思可知，本句的意思是做了错事，最好的办法是及时补救，担心发生过的事就是浪费时间，故选B．
34．A．段落大意题．根据开头The time of a letter of apology is important可知，道歉最重要的是要及时．故选A．
35．A．推理判断题．根据道歉信的注意事项有4条Timing，Action，Briefness，Sincerity．而本文已经说明了前三个，所以接下来一个是做好一条Sincerity，故选A．

点评考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力，做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确的选择．在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断．

    Whatever the old mixture of origins，Saint Valentine's Day is now a day for sweethearts．It is a day when you show your friend or loved one that you care．You can send candy to someone you think is special．Or you can send roses，the flower of love．Most people send"valentines，"a greeting card named after the notes that Saint Valentine received in jail．Whatever the form may be，the message is almost the same"will you be my Valentine？"

17．It is natural that young people are often uncomfortable when they are with their parents．They say that their parents don't understand them．They often think that their parents are out of touch with modern ways，that they are too serious and too strict with their children，and that they seldom give their children a free hand．
It is true that parents often find it difficult to win their children's trust and they tend（倾向） to forget how they themselves felt when young．
For example，young people like to act on the spot without much thinking．It is one of their ways to show that they have grown up and they can face any difficult situation．Old people worry more easily．Most of them plan things in advance，at least in the back of their minds，and do not like their plans to be upset by something unexpected．
When you want your parents to let you do something，you will have better success if you ask before you really start doing it．
Young people often make their parents angry with their choices in clothes，in entertainment and in music．But they do not mean to cause any trouble； it is just that they feel cut off from the older people's world，into which they have not yet been accepted．That's why young people want to make a new culture of their own，and if their parents don't like their music or entertainment or clothes or their way of speech，this will make the young people extremely happy．
Sometimes you are so proud of yourself that you do not want your parents to say"yes"to what you do．All you want is to be left alone and do what you like．It is natural enough，after being a child for so many years，when you were ompletely under your parents'control．
If you prefer to control your life，you'd better win your parents over and try to get them to understand you．If your arents see that you have a high sense of responsibility，they will certainly give you the right to do what you want to do．

7．As Internet users become more dependent on the Internet to store information，are people remembering less？If you know your computer will save information，why store it in your own personal memory，your brain？Experts are wondering if the Internet is changing what we remember and how．
In a recent study，Professor Betsy Sparrow conducted some experiments．She and her research team wanted to know the Internet is changing memory．In the first experiment，they gave people 40unimportant facts to type into a computer．The first group of people understood that the computer would save the information．The second group understood that the computer would not save it．Later，the second group remembered the information better．People in the first group knew they could find the information again，so they did not try to remember it．
In another experiment，the researchers gave people facts to remember，and told them where to find the information on the computer．The information was in a specific computer folder （文件夹）．Surprisingly，people later remember the folder location （位置） better than the facts．When people use the Internet，they do not remember the information．Rather，they remember how to find it．This is called"transactive memory （交互记忆）"
According to Sparrow，we are not becoming people with poor memories as a result of the Internet．Instead，computer users are developing stronger transactive memories； that is，people are learning how to organize huge quantities of information so that they are able to access（获取） it at a later date．This doesn't mean we are becoming either more or less intelligent，but there is no doubt that the way we use memory is changing．

58．The passage begins with two questions toA．
A．introduce the main topic
B．show the author's altitude
C．describe how to use the Interne．
D．explain how to store information
59．What can we learn about the first experiment？C
A．Sparrow's team typed the information into a computer．
B．The two groups remembered the information equally well．
C．The first group did not try to remember the formation．
D．The second group did not understand the information．
60．In transactive memory，peopleC．
A．keep the information in mind
B．change the quantity of information
C．remember how to find the information
D．organize information like a computer
61．What is the effect of the Internet according to Sparrow's research？B
A．We are becoming more intelligent．
B．We are using memory differently．
C．We have poorer memories than before．
D．We need a better way to get information．

14．The impression you make at the beginning of an interview is very important．Employers often decide to hire someone in the first three minutes of the interview．They judge you by your appearance，attitude and manners．
A friendly smile when you walk into the room is important．A smile shows a confident and positive attitude．
When you introduce yourself，make eye contact with the interviewer．Some interviewers offer a handshake．Others don't．
Try to be as natural as possible．But pay attention to your body language．The way you sit，walk，gesture，use your voice and show feelings on your face is all part of your body language．It makes the interviewer know how you feel about yourself and the situation you are in．Are you feeling positively about yourself？Your abilities？Your interest in the job？
Speak clearly and loudly enough．Show interest and enthusiasm in your voice．When you speak，look at the interviewer．Also，don't say negative things about yourself，or former employer．
Listen to questions carefully．If you don't understand a question，ask the interviewer to repeat or explain："I'm sorry，but I didn't catch that．""I'm not sure exactly what you mean．"
Almost everyone is nervous in a job interview．Interviewers know that．They don't expect you to be totally calm and relaxed．But they expect you to try to control your nervousness．They expect you to show confidence in your ability to do the job．
