题型：不详难度：来源：
In writing a letter of application, keep in ___19___ that the things a possible employer is most ___20___ to want to know about are your qualifications(条件), your achievements and your aims. The opening paragraph is perhaps the most important part. ___21___ the first few sentences fail to ___22___ the reader’s attention, the rest of the letter may not be __23___ at all. Try to key your opening remarks to the needs or interests of the employer not ___24___ your own need or desires. For example, instead of beginning with “I saw your ___25___ in today’s newspaper,” you might say “I have made a careful ___26___ of your advertising during the past six months” or “I have made a survey in my neighborhood to find out how many housewives ___27___ your product and why they like it. ”
Try to ___28___ generalities. Be clear about the kind of job for which you are now ___29___. College graduates looking for their first positions often ask “What can I ___30___ in a letter? Employers want experience—which, naturally, no ___31___ has.” The answer is that everything you have ever done is ___32___.
It is important to write a good strong closing for your letter. ___33___ a specific request for an interview or give the possible employer something definite to do or expect. An excellent ___34___ is to enclose(内附) a stamped, self-addressed envelope with your letter. That makes it ___35___ for a possible employer to get in touch with you.

Many people believe the glare from snow causes snowblindness. Yet, dark glasses or not, they find themselves suffering from headaches and watering eyes, and even snowblindness, when exposed to several hours of “snow light”. The United States Army has now determined that glare from snow does not cause snowblindness in troops in a snow-covered country. A man"s eyes frequently find nothing to focus on in a broad expanse of barren snow-covered terrain(地域). So his long look continually moves and jumps back and forth over the entire landscape in search of something to look at. Finding nothing, hour after hour, the eyes never stop searching and eyeballs become sore and the eye muscles ache. Nature offers this discomfort by producing more and more liquid which covers the eyeball. The liquid covers the eyeball in increasing quantity until vision became not clear, and then is not easily seen and the result is total, even though not very long, snowblindness.
Experiments led the Army to a simple method of solving this problem. Scouts, ahead of a main body of troops, are trained to shake snow from evergreen bushes creating a dotted line as they cross completely snow-covered landscape. Even the scouts themselves throw lightweight, dark colored objects ahead on which they too can focus. The men following can then see something. Their eyes focus on a bush and have something to see. By focusing their attention on one object at a time, the men can cross the snow without becoming hopelessly snowblind or lost. In this way the problem of crossing a solid white terrain is solved.
1. The first paragraph is mainly concerned with ________.
A. need for dark glasses
B the whiteness from snow
C. headaches, watering eyes and snowblindness
D. snow glare and snowblindness
2. According to the author, recent work on snowblindness shows that it is caused by ________.
A. exposure to bright light
B. failure to focus on an object
C. a loss of vision which doesn"t last long
D. focusing on dark colored objects for a very long time
3. Suppose you walk across a completely snow-covered area, what should you do to solve the problem of snowblindness?
A. By wearing dark sun glasses.
B. By throwing an extra pair of black shoes ahead.
C. By asking the Army for help.
D. By walking backwards.
4. A suitable title for this passage would be ________.
A. Snowblindness and How to avoid it B. Soldiers in Snow
C. Nature"s Cure for Snowblindness D. Snow Vision

Most of the flowers in nature are red, orange and yellow. If we have seen a black flower, it’s a chance in a million.
People have made a census (普查) to colors of mor e than four thousand kinds of flowers and discovered that only eight of them are black.
As we know, sunlight is formed by seven different colored lights.The wave length of each light is different, so the quantity of heat in each light is also different. Flowers, especially their petals, are easy to be harmed by light temperature.
Black flowers can take in all the light waves which cause the flowers to dry up in the high temperature. So black flowers can rarely survive sunlight. But red flowers, yellow flowers and orange flowers can protect themselves from sunlight by reflecting the red light, yellow light and orange light, each of which has a large quantity of heat.
1. It is _____ to see a black flower.
A. impossible B. seldom C. common D. no chance
2. From the passage we know that _______.
A. black flowers are so weak that it is difficult for them to grow up.
B. there are only eight black flowers in nature
C. sunlight is formed by seven different colored lights, so the wave length of each light is different
D. black flowers can take in the light of all the wave length which makes them dry up because of high temperature
3. Which of the following ideas is WRONG?
A. People have found that only a few kinds of flowers are black.
B. Flowers are easy to be harmed by very high temperature.
C. Red, orange and yellow flowers can also take in the light of all wave lengths.
