People
People may live for up to 120 years and use new technology to help when people go blind, deaf
and have other problems. The number of people over a hundred years old could go from 135,000
today to 2.2 million people by 2050. By 2015 people think that 100 million workers will be able to
work from home for a company in a different country by using the Internet.
Money
Worldwide e-business will become even more successful with online shops that sell special products
for each person, which will be brought to their house the next day.
Environment
The technology for making energy from wind and the Sun is growing very quickly. In the future
wind and Sun energy could become much cheaper and many more countries could use it. This would
be very useful in poor countries. The air in big cities would also become much cleaner and healthier as
a result.
Society and culture
The Internet will help to create more worldwide friendships. Families may spend more time together
as people will be able to do 24-hour online banking and shopping.
Technology
The new science of "nanotechnology" (very small robots or machines) will make all sorts of products
smaller and lighter. Very, very small machines could take away rubbish, make things in factories, and
help inside the human body by taking away fat. By 2012 people will be able to wear these small machines
that look like watches, which will give them lots of information about their body and keep them healthy.

The purpose of a letter of application(求职信) is to help you to "sell" yourself. It should state__1_
the job you want, and should tell what your abilities are and what you have__2_. It should be simple,
human, personal and brief without _ 3 _ out any necessary facts.
In writing a letter of application, keep in __4__ that the things a possible employer is most _5__ to
want to know about are your qualifications(条件), your achievements and your aims. The opening
paragraph is
perhaps the most important part. _6__
the first few sentences fail to _7__ the reader"s
attention, the rest of the letter may not be __8_ at all. Try to key your opening remarks to the needs
or interests of the employer not __9_ your own need or desires. For example, instead of beginning
with "I saw your _ 10_ in today"s newspaper," you might say "I have made a careful _11_ of your
advertising during the past six months" or "I have made a survey in my neighborhood to find out how
many housewives _12_ your product and why they like it. "
Try to _13_ generalities. Be clear about the kind of job for which you are now _14_. College
graduates looking for their first positions often ask "What can I _15_ in a letter? Employers want
experience-which, naturally, no ___16___ has." The answer is that everything you have ever done
is _17_.
It is important to write a good strong closing for your letter. _18__ a specific request for an interview
or give the possible employer something definite to do or expect. An excellent _ 19_ is to enclose
(内附) a stamped, self-addressed envelope with your letter. That makes it _ 20_ for a possible employer
to get in touch with you.

lead characters, 17-year-old Xiao Xue and 14-year-old Liu Xing can remind us of our own behavior or
our classmates. We love the two teenagers, but are they good students? And what makes a good student?
"Being a student is a kind of occupation, so a good student should have good grades. Based on their
school reports, clever and diligent, Xiao Xue is a much better student than her brother, Liu Xing," says
Wu Hao, 16, Chifeng in Inner Mongolia. "The boy should work harder at studying since our duty as
students is to study well."
It is generally accepted that getting good scores is crucial for a student. So to some, being a good
student means ranking high in your class or even your school. However, Wu also admits that a student"s
personality is more important in being a role model student.
"Honesty and kindness make you admirable. But Xiao Xue can be selfish, dishonest and arrogant,
which make others feel uncomfortable to be around her. So she has a lot yet to improve on," Wu said.
Many teenagers do not think it is fair to judge students by their grades. Take Liu Xing for example. He is
bright, good at computers and does everything else well like any other 14-year-old except studying.
"He is smart, humorous and always has fancy ideas which makes him popular. I guess he could be an
excellent student if he attended school in the United States, where high grades are not so important and
creativity is hailed," says Jia Xiaoxu,
17, Hefei, Anhui.From the US hit movie High School Musical, Jia discovers her role model.
"Gabriella in the movie is an ideal student. She is ranked top but is not seen as a bookworm. She is
sweet and sociable. Most importantly, Gabriella is always "hungry" to try new things and actively
participates in different kinds of activities," she said.
B. A discussion about what makes a good student.
C. How to get high rank in study.
D. Study and personality.
B. A student"s personality is more important for a role model student.
C. Xiao Xue still has some shortcomings which need to be improved.
D. Xiao Xue is much better in study than her brother Liu Xing.
B. He gets on well with Xiao Xue.
C. He does everything well except study.
D. He is good at computer and creative.
B. To be good students, we should work hard.
C. To be good students, we should not be addicted to books.
D. To be good students, we should only concern about social issues
In the company in which I work, each of us is afraid of at least one person. The lower your
1 is,the more people you are afraid of. 2 all the people are afraid of the twelve men at the top
who helped 3 and build the company and now own and 4 it.
All these twelve men are 5 now and drained(耗尽) by time and success of energy and
ambition. Many have 6 their whole lives here. They seem friendly, slow and 7 when I come
upon them in thehalls and always courteous(谦恭的) when they 8 with others in the public lifts.
They 9 work hard. They hold meetings, make promotions (推销活动), and allow their 10 to
be used on announcements that are prepared and issued(发布) by somebody else. Nobody is sure
11 really runs the company, butthe company does run.
In the 12 course of a business day I am afraid of Jack Green because my department is part
of his department and Jack Green is my 13 ; Green is afraid of me because most of the work in my
department is done for the Sales Department, which is more 14 than his department.
Green distrusts me sometimes. He makes 15 clear to me every now and then that he wishes to
seeeverything 16 out of my department before it"s shown to other departments. I know he doesn"t
really mean this. He is 17 busy with his own work to pay that much attention to all of mine, and I"ll
bypass(避开) him on most of our assignments (任务) rather than 18 his time and delay their 19 to
people who have an immediate 20 for them.

By the time that a student reaches his senior year in high school, he is likely to believe that he is an
expert in reading. No matter how 1 he is, he can still improve. How do you read an article in a
textbook? Do you have a certain 2 of doing it or do you just 3 at the beginning and keep
reading 4 you come to the end?
5 students say that they use the " slow and sure" method. By this they mean they read every
sentence slowly and 6 . Every time they come to an 7 word they stop 8 what it means
and, if necessary, look it up in the 9 . In this method a person 10 has no time left for 11 what
he has read, for he has used all his 12 in trying to get the meaning of each word to 13 that he
14 everything.
Other students use what has been 15 the "review" method. Here a person tries to arrange his
time 16 he can read his lesson 17 twice. This type of reading is 18 than the " slow and sure"
method, for the lesson 19 be read rapidly or there will not be 20 time left for a second reading.
