Dear Mr. Smith,

I’m very glad to hear that there will be built a non-smoking supermarket in your international shopping center. In my opinion, it is∧good idea to build a non-smoking

a

supermarket which can not only help the smokers smoke less, and also do good to other

but

customers’ health. Since you had given up selling cigarettes, the customer are sure to

have customers

support you. In addition, smoke in the shopping center may cause fire, which is very

smoking

danger to your possessions and the safety of the customers. Therefore, the non-smoking dangerous

supermarket will not have bad effects on our business. To the contrary, it will help you

your On

attract more customers who doesn’t like smoking at all.

don’t

Best wishes!

Yours sincerely,

Li Hua

Dear Sri/Madam,

I read your advertisement on the Internet and I would like to apply for the position of a

part-time tourist guide.

I am a boy/girl of 18. I have a good knowledge of English and I’m excellent at speaking it, so there will be no trouble for me communicating with foreigners. What’s more, I know well about

the famous national places of interest as well as the well-known resorts. Besides, I’m open-minded

and it is easy for me to get along well with others. When tourists are in trouble I will be ready to help them.

Thanks for your consideration. I would be more than happy to be employed.

Looking forward to your reply.

Yours,

Li Hua

I’m interested in driving and would love to attend driving classes with you. If you wonder why I choose driving classes instead of second foreign language, below are my reasons. To begin with, after three years’ hard study in academic subjects, it’s high time that we try something different. Language learning is nothing different, given that we have already learned English for years. Driving is not necessarily easier than our studying at school, but it’s a good way to relieve us from the intense atmosphere. Next, if we are talented enough and make as much effort as we do with our academic study, we will able to get the driving license within one month, or even sooner. Thus we shall have almost 2 months left in the summer vacation, for other plans like traveling, speaking of which, here come the last point. How nice would it be if we can arrange a self-driving tour one or two weeks before the university enrollment. It will be an exciting and unforgettable experience for us.

The approach of the College Examination stands for a sign that we are stepping into the society. We are about to leave the ivory tower and no longer just bury ourselves in books and exercise.

It speaks 36 than words. According to specialists, our bodies send out more 37 than we realize. In fact, non-verbal(非语言)communication takes up about 50% of what we really 38 . And body language is particularly 39 when we attempt to communicate across cultures. Indeed, what is called body language is so 40 a part of us that it's actually often unnoticed. And misunderstandings occur as a result of it. 41 , different societies treat the 42 between people differently. Northern Europeans usually do not like having 43 contact(接触)even with friends, and certainly not with 44 . People from Latin American countries 45 touch each other quite a lot. Therefore, it's possible that in 46 , it may look like a Latino is 47 a Norwegian all over the room. The Latino, trying to express friendship, will keep moving 48 . The Norwegian, very probably seeing this as pushiness, will keep 49 - which the Latino will in return regard as 50 . Clearly, a great deal is going on when people 51 . And only a part of it is in the words themselves. And when parties are from 52 cultures, there's a strong possibility of 53 . But whatever the situation, the best 54 is to obey the Golden Rule: treat others as you would like to be 55 . 2012年高考英语全国卷1完形填空翻译: 肢体语言是安静的,秘密的,也是所有语言中最强大的。它远远胜过说出的语言。专家指出,我们的身体发出的信息比我们所了解的更多。事实上,非语言交流占据了我们真正意思的50%。当我们试图跨文化交流时,肢体语言尤为重要。确实,所谓的肢体语言是我们如此大的一部分,而事实上它却经常被忽视。误解也就由此而来。例如,不同的社会对待人与人之间的距离就截然不同。北欧人通常不喜欢身体接触,即便是朋友,所以更不可能跟陌生人。另一方面,拉丁美洲的人身体接触却比较多。因此,在谈话中有可能时一个拉丁人跟着一个挪威人在房间里走动。为了表达友好的拉丁人会一直靠近。而挪威人有可能觉得这种行为非常粗鲁,所以他会一直后退,保持距离—拉丁人会认为这是一种冷漠。 诚然,当人们在交谈时很多事情都在发生。但是,只有很少一部分在语言本身当中。当交谈双方来自不同文化时,误解是极有可能发生的。但是,不管是什么样的情形,最好的建议是遵守这个黄金法则:像你希望被对待的那样对待别人。

Directions given at machine-gun speed. New people introduced in a flood of names and handshakes. Whenever information is passed between people, it’s all too easy for it to go in one ear and straight out of the other. Thankfully, the opposite is also true. Look around you, and you’ll see parents who can get their children to rem ember exactly what they were told; advertisers who know how to imprint their sales messages on our brains. So, how do they do? Their secrets can be summed up in four simple words: focus, imagery, reasons and engagement. FOCUS means ensuring that the person you’re talking to can concentrate on learning. Choose your moment carefully. Check that they can properly hear or see the information. Communicate slowly and clearly enough for their memory to cope. IMAGERY helps information to stick. Do everything your can to make other people “see”the ideas you’re giving them. Add visual details to directions, and illustrate abstract concepts with metaphors. REASONS to remember help people to put in the mental effort. So, make it clear that your words are important, and be explicit about why. Maybe this information will save them time, protectthem from embarrassment, or let them enjoy a particular experience or event. EMGAGEMENT requires you to ask questions. Point out links between new concepts and things listeners already know. Activate their senses, spark their curiosity, get them doing something physical, or simply make them laugh. The next time you’ve got an important message to pass on, put some of these techniques to the test. You’ll discover that there are benefits on both sides when you know how to FIRE people’s memories into action. 21. What is the main purpose of the text? A.To report new research. B.To provide some advice. C.To explain a problem. D.To define some terms. 22. How can you do to help a listener “focus” on w hat you are saying? A.Select the appropriate time to raise the topic. B.Do something humorous to get their attention. C.Make sure the information provided is correct.

Later, I decided to 35 more things to the list. That night there was a phone call for 36 from a lady who was a director at a larger 37 . She asked me if I would 38 a one-day lecture on stress (压力) management to 200 medical workers. I said yes. My 39 there went very well, and before long I got a well-paid job. To this day I know that it was because I changed my way of 40 that I completely changed my life. 2012年高考英语全国卷2完形填空翻译: 大概在20年前我住在纽约。尽管我有很多的经历和一个硕士学位,但是我始终找不到一份满意的工作。 那时,我靠兼职开校车来保持收支平衡,又由于失去了自己的公寓而和我的一个朋友住在一起。我在一家公司面试了五次,终于有一天在我开车的时候他们打来电话说我没能得到这份工作。我很痛苦,心想:“为什么我的生活变得这么的艰难”。 当我把车停在旁边让一个小女孩下车的时候,她交给我一个耳环,并且对我说让我保存好这个耳环,以免有人认领。这个耳环被涂成黑色,耳环上面写着“要开心”。 刚开始我很生气。之后,我被触动了—我总是把注意力放在生活的不顺上,却没有想过一些好的事情。我决定立即列出50件值得开心的事情的清单。之后,我在清单里加入了更多的内容。那天晚上,我接到一位女士的电话,她是一家大型医院的董事。她问我能不能给200个医务工作者做一天关于缓解压力的讲座。我答应了她。 那天讲座进展很顺利,之后不久我就找到了一份高薪工作。对于这一天,我知道是我思维方式的转变才彻底的改变了我的生活。
