She founded the Association to Benefit Children （ABC）， the nonprofit group， some 20 years ago. The story of how she started ABC is pretty amazing. In 1984 she was on her way to a

government office to get a daycare permit when， by accident， she entered a room where homeless families were waiting to be placed in a “ welfare hotel.” She saw three bare cribs （婴儿床） with babies lying in them. The children wore no diapers （their parents couldnt afford them）， and the room was filthy （不整洁）. After talking to the parents and learning that they and their children were hungry， Gretchen marched out and bought bread， peanut butter， apple juice and diapers. Then she started making phone calls. She dialed the American Red Cross， City Hall and The New York Times.

Gretchen has made many people see that we need to recognize these children are not different from our own， and we need to join in and help. Too often， people look away from suffering. But she sets us an example that we should gain strength to do something about it. 36. She went to the government office .

If you want to be taken seriously in the business world， you must understand how to write a proper letter. Dont use big words： use everyday language. The word “per” is often used in business communication. Its not a real word！ Dont use it. Use short words， and short paragraphs. Space your paragraphs evenly and cleanly for a more professional look. The average paper can hold 66 sentences： use this guide as you format your letter， so that the bulk （大部分） of the words are nicely centered. Think about when your letter is going to reach its recipient. You dont want your letter to get lost in the endofthe month bills. A letter that arrives on Monday is less likely to be read

carefully than one that arrives on Tuesday. A good tip： include the word “you” or “your” as one of the first three opening words. Why？ It draws the readers attention to the letter！ The only thing better than this is opening with a referral （提及） to a person you know， as in “Mr. Smith

suggested that I write to you.” Readers also love stories—particularly humor—and anything in quotes. Quotation marks catch the eye， and make the letter look more inviting. Sign your letter legibly， so that your name can be read clearly.

D

Drunken driving has become a national headache. Every hour of every day about three

Americans on average are killed by drunken drivers， adding up to an incredible 250，000 over the past ten years.

A drunken driver is usually defined as one with a 0.10 blood alcohol drinking roughly three beers， glasses of wine or shots of whisky drunk within two hours. Heavy drinking used to be an acceptable part of the American manly image and judges were merciful in most courts， but the drunken accidents has recently caused so many wellpublicized tragedies， especially involving young children， that public opinion is no longer so tolerant.

Twenty states have raised the legal drinking age to 21， reversing a trend in the 1960s to reduce it to 18. After New Jersey lowered it to 18， the number of people killed by 1820yearold drivers more than doubled， so the state recently upped it back to 21.

Reformers， however， fear raising the drinking age will have little effect unless accompanied by educational programmes to help young people to develop responsible attitudes about drinking and teach them to resist peer pressure to drink.

Tough new laws have led to increased arrests and tests and in many areas already， to a marked decline in death. Some states are also publishing bars for serving customers too many drinks. A bar in Massachusetts was fined for serving six or more double brandies to a customer who was “obviously drunken” and later drove off the road， killing a nineyearold boy.

As the death continues to occur daily in every state， some Americans are even beginning to speak well of the national ban on alcohol that began in 1919， which President Hoover called the “noble experiment”. They forget that legal ban didnt stop drinking， but encouraged political corruption and organized crime. As with the booming drug trade generally， there is no easy solution. 46. Drunken driving has become a major problem in America because . A. most Americans are heavy drinkers

B. Americans are now less shocked by road accidents C. accidents attract so much publicity

D. drinking is a socially accepted habit in America

47. Why has public opinion regarding drunken driving changed？ A. Detailed statistics are now available.

B. The news media have given special attention to the problem. C. Judges are giving more severe sentences. D. Drivers are more conscious of their image. 48. Laws recently introduced in some states have . A. reduced the number of bar customers B. resulted in fewer serious accidents

C. prevented bars from serving drunken customers D. specified the amount drivers can drink

49. Now some Americans are beginning to the ban on alcohol by President Hoover in 1913. A. think highly ofB. criticize C. speak evil ofD. think lowly of

50. Why is the problem of drinking and driving difficult to solve？ A. Alcohol is easily obtained.

B. Drinking is linked to organized crime. C. Legal ban has already failed. D. Laws and rules alone are not enough.

四、任务型阅读（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）

请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格处填入一个最恰当的单词。注意：每个空格只填一个单词。

Some people believe that greed and selfishness has become the basis of modern society， and we should return to the old traditions of family and community then we will have a better life. To what extent do you agree or disagree with the above opinion？

In this fastpaced world， many values are having major changes. While people traditionally place caring， sharing and generosity first in life and work， modern people seem to be more selfabsorbed and selfconcerned.

龙源期刊网 http://www.qikan.com.cn

Modern people act selfishly to survive the fierce competition of life. They say that it is a jungle out there. To survive， you have to fight with whatever means that come handy. Obviously greedy and selfishness go perfectly well with such ideas. In a company， employees do everything they can to get better pay and higher position， even at the cost of colleagues. We are in any way advocating any selfish conduct. It is just that people are pressured to act in a certain way due to outside influences. In spite of common practice， it is hard to conclude that modern society is built on greed and selfishness， both of which are not newly invented vocabulary. In ancient times people also did greedy and selfish things though such behaviors were more condemned then. But we can not ignore the fact that people in the past lived a relatively more isolated life and faced less pressure compared with their modern counterparts.

Are we happier to share with others and be generous to them？ There is no fixed answer either. Some people take great pleasure helping and giving to others while others feel happy doing the opposite. But I personally think that people should not be too selfish. Caring for others can actually encourage the development of a mutually beneficial relationship.

In conclusion， modern people appear to be more selfcentered than those in the past due to strong outside pressure. However， we should encourage people to know the importance of being caring and generous and to build a mutually beneficial relationship with others. Are modern people becoming more selfish？ Comparisons （51） Behaviors In the past

In the picture， we can see an old man sitting on a sofa alone. It is the old mans birthday today. On the sofa is a big birthday cake and some presents sent by his children. But the old man doesnt feel happy. Instead， he looks very sad. Why？ Because he lives alone and has no person to talk with. So he feels lonely

This is a common phenomenon， I think. Beside us there are many old men like him. Our life is getting better and better. Some people think old people will be satisfied when they have enough to eat and drink. Though they dont worry about eating and clothing， old people can easily get lonely. They need their children to care for them. What they need is not presents but concerns. Even talking with them may make them happy for a long time.

We should spend as much time together with them as we can and take care of them in every possible way.
